Cholinergic induction of networkoscillations at 40Hz in the hippocampus in vitro

TLDR
These results indicate that subcortical cholinergic input can control hippocampal memory processing by inducing fast net-work oscillations in CA3.
Abstract
. Oscillatoryactivity is generated spontaneously in the CA3 subfield and canpersist for hours. During the oscillatory state, principal neuronsfire action potentials that are phase-related to the extracellularoscillation, but each neuron fires in only a small proportion of thecycles. Both excitatory and inhibitory synaptic events participateduring the network oscillation in a precise temporal pattern.These results indicate that subcortical cholinergic input cancontrol hippocampal memory processing by inducing fast net-work oscillations.

Synchronized Firings in the Networks of Class 1 Excitable Neurons with Excitatory and Inhibitory Connections and Their Dependences on the Forms of Interactions

TL;DR: Synchronized firings in the networks of class 1 excitable neurons with excitatory and inhibitory connections are investigated, and their dependences on the forms of interactions are analyzed.

Collective dynamics of basal ganglia-thalamo-cortical loops and their roles in functions and dysfunctions

TL;DR: In this paper, a nouvelle theory was proposed to explain the role of ganglions of the base (GB) in the maladie de Parkinson and the absence of neurons.

Contextual Learning Requires Functional Diversity at Excitatory and Inhibitory Synapses onto CA1 Pyramidal Neurons

TL;DR: It is proposed a new hypothesis that the diversity of synaptic inputs on CA1 neurons may depict cell-specific outputs processing experienced episodes after training, and may provides evidence thatCA1 neurons transmit essential data of contextual information.

Hippocampal Function and Gonadal Steroids

TL;DR: The hippocampus plays a central role to form new episodic memory in various species in‐ cluding humans and the critical mechanism how to sustain a piece of specific memory and how to organize the memory fragment to form "episodes" is still largely unknown.

A synaptic model of memory: long-term potentiation in the hippocampus

TL;DR: The best understood form of long-term potentiation is induced by the activation of the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor complex, which allows electrical events at the postsynaptic membrane to be transduced into chemical signals which, in turn, are thought to activate both pre- and post Synaptic mechanisms to generate a persistent increase in synaptic strength.

Place navigation impaired in rats with hippocampal lesions.

TL;DR: It is reported that, in addition to a spatial discrimination impairment, total hippocampal lesions also cause a profound and lasting placenavigational impairment that can be dissociated from correlated motor, motivational and reinforcement aspects of the procedure.

The intrinsic electrophysiological properties of mammalian neurons: insights into central nervous system function.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the autorhythmic electrical properties of central neurons and their connectivity form the basis for an intrinsic functional coordinate system that provides internal context to sensory input.

Synchronized oscillations in interneuron networks driven by metabotropic glutamate receptor activation

TL;DR: It is proposed that interneuron network oscillations, in conjunction with intrinsic membrane resonances and long-loop (such as thalamocortical) interactions, contribute to 40-Hz rhythms in vivo.

Gamma (40-100 Hz) oscillation in the hippocampus of the behaving rat

TL;DR: It is suggested that gamma oscillation emerges from an interaction between intrinsic oscillatory properties of interneurons and the network properties of the dentate gyrus and that Gamma oscillation in the CA3-CA1 circuitry is suppressed by either the hilar region or the entorhinal cortex.
