The anterior thalamus provides a subcortical circuit supporting memory and spatial navigation.
(2013)The anterior thalamic nuclei (ATN), a central component of Papez' circuit, are generally assumed to be key constituents of the neural circuits responsible for certain categories of learning and memory. Supporting evidence ... -
Hippocampal inputs mediate theta-related plasticity in anterior thalamus
(Elsevier, 2011)Hippocampally-driven oscillatory activity at theta frequency is found in the diencephalon, but an understanding of the fundamental role of theta in the hippocampo-diencephalic circuit remains elusive. An important strategy ... -
Hippocampal-anterior thalamic pathways for memory: uncovering a network of direct and indirect actions.
(2010)This review charts recent advances from a variety of disciplines that create a new perspective on why the multiple hippocampal?anterior thalamic interconnections are together vital for human episodic memory and rodent event ... -
Respiratory cycle entrainment of septal neurons mediates the fast coupling of sniffing rate and hippocampal theta rhythm.
(2014)Memory for odour information may result from temporal coupling between the olfactory and hippocampal systems. Respiration defines the frequency of olfactory perception, but how the respiratory rate affects hippocampal ... -
Segregation of parallel inputs to the anteromedial and anteroventral thalamic nuclei of the rat
(2013)Many brain structures project to both the anteroven tral thalamic nucleus and the anteromedial thalamic nucleus. In the present stud y, pairs of different tracers were placed into these two thalamic sites in the same ... -
The Subiculum: What It Does, What It Might Do, And What Neuroanatomy Has Yet To Tell Us
(Anatomical Society of Great Britain and Ireland, 2005)The subiculum is a pivotal but under-investigated structure positioned between the hippocampus proper and entorhinal and other cortices, as well as a range of subcortical structures. The subiculum has a range of ... -
Theta-Modulated Head Direction Cells in the Rat Anterior Thalamus
(Society of Neuroscience, 2011)A major tool in understanding how the brain processes information is the analysis of neuronal output at each hierarchical level along the pathway of signal propagation. Theta rhythm and head directionality are the two main ...
