  2. Hippocampal subfields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampal_subfields

    The hippocampal subfields are four subfields CA1, CA2, CA3, and CA4 that make up the structure of the hippocampus. Regions described in the hippocampus are the head, body, and tail, and other hippocampal subfields include the dentate gyrus , the presubiculum , and the subiculum .

  3. Hippocampus anatomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampus_anatomy

    The hippocampus is sometimes called the hippocampus proper and just includes the CA subfields (cornu Ammonis 1-4). The hippocampus, dentate gyrus, and other subfields make up the hippocampal formation. The dentate gyrus contains the fascia dentata and the hilus. The CA is differentiated into subfields CA1, CA2, CA3, and CA4. CA4 is often not ...

  4. Schaffer collateral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schaffer_collateral

    The Schaffer collateral is located between the CA3 region and CA1 region in the hippocampus. Schaffer collaterals are the axons of pyramidal cells that connect two neurons (CA3 and CA1) and transfer information from CA3 to CA1. [5] [6] The entorhinal cortex sends the main input to the dentate gyrus (perforant pathway).

  5. Trisynaptic circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisynaptic_circuit

    The trisynaptic circuit is a neural circuit in the hippocampus, which is made up of three major cell groups: granule cells in the dentate gyrus, pyramidal neurons in CA3, and pyramidal neurons in CA1. The hippocampal relay involves three main regions within the hippocampus which are classified according to their cell type and projection fibers.

  6. Dentate gyrus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dentate_gyrus

    The dentate gyrus (DG) is one of the subfields of the hippocampus, in the hippocampal formation.The hippocampal formation is located in the temporal lobe of the brain, and includes the hippocampus (including CA1 to CA4) subfields, and other subfields including the dentate gyrus, subiculum, and presubiculum.

  7. Perforant path - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perforant_path

    In mice, the projection to CA1, and the subiculum all come primarily from EC layer III. [citation needed]According to Suh et al. (2011 Science 334:1415) the projection to CA3 and dentate gyrus in mice is primarily from layer II of entorhinal cortex, and forms a trisynaptic path with hippocampus (dentate gyrus to CA3 to CA1), distinguished from the direct (monosynaptic) perforant path from ...

  8. Hippocampal formation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampal_formation

    The hippocampal formation is a compound structure in the medial temporal lobe of the brain. It forms a c-shaped bulge on the floor of the inferior horn of the lateral ventricle . [ 1 ] Typically, the hippocampal formation is said to included the dentate gyrus , the hippocampus , and the subiculum . [ 2 ]

    The ventral hippocampus functions in fear ... These events are associated with bursts of spike activity lasting 50 to 100 milliseconds in pyramidal cells of CA3 and CA1.
