Variable recruitment of distal tuft dendrites shapes new hippocampal place fields

Kavli Affiliate: Attila Losonczy and Franck Polleux | Authors: Justin K. O’Hare, Jamie Wang, Margjele D. Shala, Franck Polleux and Attila Losonczy | Summary: Hippocampal pyramidal neurons support episodic memory by integrating complementary information streams into new ‘place fields’. Distal tuft dendrites are widely thought to initiate place field formation by locally generating prolonged, globally-spreading […]

Hypothalamic CRH Neurons Modulate Sevoflurane Anesthesia and The Post-anesthesia Stress Responses

Kavli Affiliate: Wei Min | Authors: Shan Jiang, Lu Chen, Wei-Min Qu, Zhi-Li Huang and Chang-Rui Chen | Summary: General anesthesia is a fundamental process required to undertake safely and humanely a high fraction of surgeries and invasive diagnostic procedures. However, the undesired stress response associated with general anesthesia (GA) causes delayed recovery and even […]

The ventral CA2 region of the hippocampus and its differential contributions to social memory and social aggression

Kavli Affiliate: Steven Siegelbaum; | Authors: Lara M. Boyle, Wanhui Sheng, Felix Leroy, Rhea Sahai, Sarah Irfan, Heon-Jin Lee, Andres Villegas, W. Scott Young and Steven A Siegelbaum | Summary: Although it is well-known that the hippocampus mediates declarative memory (the repository of information of people, places, things and events) and influences behavior, the differential […]

RESPAN: an accurate, unbiased and automated pipeline for analysis of dendritic morphology and dendritic spine mapping

Kavli Affiliate: Franck Polleux; | Authors: Sergio B. Garcia, Alexa P. Schlotter, Daniela Pereira, Franck Polleux and Luke Hammond | Summary: Accurate and unbiased reconstructions of neuronal morphology, including quantification of dendritic spine morphology and distribution, are widely used in neuroscience but remain a major roadblock for large-scale analysis. Traditionally, spine analysis has required labor-intensive […]

Modulation of aggression by social novelty recognition memory in the hippocampal CA2 region

Kavli Affiliate: Steven Siegelbaum | Authors: Andres Villegas and Steven A Siegelbaum | Summary: The dorsal CA2 subregion (dCA2) of the hippocampus exerts a critical role in social novelty recognition (SNR) memory and in the promotion of social aggression. Whether the social aggression and SNR memory functions of dCA2 are related or represent independent processes […]
