Hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons have frequently been regarded as a homogeneous cell population in biophysical, pharmacological and modeling studies. We found robust differences between pyramidal ...

This finding will be invaluable for developing better models for the processing going on in the hippocampus. More information ...

New research reveals that individual neurons in the hippocampus can respond to both slow and fast brain waves at the same ...

CA1 pyramidal neurons act as the output cells of a well-studied circuit in the hippocampus. The cells all share a characteristic shape and reside in the same structure in the brain. But according ...

These pyramidal cell neurons are further divided into two branches: one branch reaches the opposite side of the hippocampus via corpus callosum; the other branch connects to CA1 through Schaffer ...

In each hippocampus’s CA3 area, humans have about 1.7 million nerve cells called pyramidal cells. This subregion is thought to be the most internally connected part of the brain in mammals.

the authors investigate the synapse between granule cells and CA3 pyramidal cells in the hippocampus, using a recently developed method to simultaneously stimulate the individual presynaptic ...

Its distinctive pyramidal neurons are contained mainly in the cornu ammonis (CA), while another hippocampal region called the dentate gyrus (DG) is characterized by granule cells. While it is ...

Pyramidal cells in the CA1 region of the hippocampus, once thought to be a uniform collection of neurons, have recently been found to be highly diverse. But the role of this diversity in cognitive ...
