Age-related changes in the mesial temporal lobe: the parahippocampal white matter region

TL;DR: The perforant pathway originates from cells in the entorhinal cortex and relays sensory information from the neocortex to the hippocampus, a region critical for memory function as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reactivation of hippocampal ensemble activity patterns in the aging rat.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the hypothesis that age-related changes in this process might contribute to memory impairments observed during normal aging and found that there was a strong similarity between the resting epoch activity patterns and those from the preceding behavior epoch.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term synaptic enhancement in hippocampus is not regulated by postsynaptic membrane potential

TL;DR: If postsynaptic integration is involved in the control of the enhancement process, the integration must be chemically rather than electrically mediated.
Book ChapterDOI

Memory Changes with Age. Neurobiological Correlates

TL;DR: The chapter discusses selected evidence that supports the ideas that learning and memory changes do occur over the life span in humans and other animals, and that an understanding of these behavioral changes has helped to narrow the focus of study onto certain accessible neurological structures.
