Dentate gyrus neurogenesis and depression.
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a debilitating and complex psychiatric disorder that involves multiple neural circuits and genetic and non-genetic risk factors. In the quest for elucidating the neurobiological basis of MDD, hippocampal neurogenesis has emerged as a candidate substrate, both for the etiology as well as treatment of MDD. This chapter critiques the advances made in the study of...
متن کاملThe dentate gyrus: fundamental neuroanatomical organization (dentate gyrus for dummies).
The dentate gyrus is a simple cortical region that is an integral portion of the larger functional brain system called the hippocampal formation. In this review, the fundamental neuroanatomical organization of the dentate gyrus is described, including principal cell types and their connectivity, and a summary of the major extrinsic inputs of the dentate gyrus is provided. Together, this informa...
متن کاملLongevity of synaptic depression in the hippocampal dentate gyrus.
This study used urethane-anesthetized rats to investigate the longevity of heterosynaptically evoked depression of the monosynaptic response generated by synapses between entorhinal cortical (EC) afferents and the cells of the dentate gyrus (DG). Brief, high-frequency activation of the converging ipsilateral EC-DG input depressed the synaptic response of the contralateral EC-DG synapses without...
متن کاملModeling the dentate gyrus.
Computational modeling has become an increasingly useful tool for studying complex neuronal circuits such as the dentate gyrus. In order to effectively apply computational techniques and theories to answer pressing biological questions, however, it is necessary to develop detailed, data-driven models. Development of such models is a complicated process, akin to putting together a jigsaw puzzle ...
متن کاملNeurotrophins in the dentate gyrus.
Since the discovery of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the 1950s and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the 1980s, a great deal of evidence has mounted for the roles of neurotrophins (NGF; BDNF; neurotrophin-3, NT-3; and neurotrophin-4/5, NT-4/5) in development, physiology, and pathology. BDNF in particular has important roles in neural development and cell survival, as well as appearing ...
