Dentate gyrus circuits for encoding, retrieval and discrimination of episodic memories

T Hainmueller, M Bartos - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2020 - nature.com
The dentate gyrus (DG) has a key role in hippocampal memory formation. Intriguingly, DG
lesions impair many, but not all, hippocampus-dependent mnemonic functions, indicating …

Distinct pattern separation related transfer functions in human CA3/dentate and CA1 revealed using high-resolution fMRI and variable mnemonic similarity

JW Lacy, MA Yassa, SM Stark, LT Muftuler… - Learning & …, 2011 - learnmem.cshlp.org
Producing and maintaining distinct (orthogonal) neural representations for similar events is
critical to avoiding interference in long-term memory. Recently, our laboratory provided the …

Single granule cells reliably discharge targets in the hippocampal CA3 network in vivo

DA Henze, L Wittner, G Buzsáki - Nature neuroscience, 2002 - nature.com
Processing of neuronal information depends on interactions between the anatomical
connectivity and cellular properties of single cells. We examined how these computational …

The CA3 “backprojection” to the dentate gyrus

HE Scharfman - Progress in brain research, 2007 - Elsevier
The hippocampus is typically described in the context of the trisynaptic circuit, a pathway that
relays information from the perforant path to the dentate gyrus, dentate to area CA3, and …

Paradox of pattern separation and adult neurogenesis: A dual role for new neurons balancing memory resolution and robustness

ST Johnston, M Shtrahman, S Parylak… - Neurobiology of learning …, 2016 - Elsevier
Hippocampal adult neurogenesis is thought to subserve pattern separation, the process by
which similar patterns of neuronal inputs are transformed into distinct neuronal …

The CRISP theory of hippocampal function in episodic memory

S Cheng - Frontiers in neural circuits, 2013 - frontiersin.org
Over the past four decades, a “standard framework” has emerged to explain the neural
mechanisms of episodic memory storage. This framework has been instrumental in driving …

Plasticity-dependent, full detonation at hippocampal mossy fiber–CA3 pyramidal neuron synapses

NP Vyleta, C Borges-Merjane, P Jonas - Elife, 2016 - elifesciences.org
