Rethinking Functional Segregation: Gradients of Gene Expression in Area CA1
نویسندگان
چکیده
An emerging view, based on gene expression patterns, is that discrete cell types occupy different regions in the hippocampus. In this issue of Neuron, Cembrowski et al. (2016) challenge this concept by identifying gradients of gene expression that suggest a molecular continuum of excitatory neurons and provide insights for organizational motifs at hippocampal poles.

Functional division of hippocampal area CA1 via modulatory gating of entorhinal cortical inputs.
The hippocampus receives two streams of information, spatial and nonspatial, via major afferent inputs from the medial (MEC) and lateral entorhinal cortexes (LEC). The MEC and LEC projections in the temporoammonic pathway are topographically organized along the transverse-axis of area CA1. The potential for functional segregation of area CA1, however, remains relatively unexplored. Here, we dem...
متن کاملProximodistal segregation of nonspatial information in CA3: preferential recruitment of a proximal CA3-distal CA1 network in nonspatial recognition memory.
A prevailing view in memory research is that CA3 principally supports spatial processes. However, few studies have investigated the contribution of CA3 to nonspatial memory function. Interestingly, the proximal part of CA3 (close to the dentate gyrus) predominantly projects to distal CA1 (away from the dentate gyrus), which preferentially processes nonspatial information. Moreover, the cytoarch...
متن کاملThe effects of chlorodiazepoxide on the Bax gene expression in CA1 pyramidal cells of the newborn rat hippocampus
Background: Most drugs used by pregnant women can pass through the placenta and expose embryos and developing embryos to teratogenic effects. Due to the increased cellular damage of Bax gene expression, the effect of cholorodiazepoxide use during pregnancy on Bax gene expression in the hippocampus of neonatal rats was investigated. Materials and methods: After confirmation of pregnancy in Wista...
متن کاملThe Effect of Endurance Activity on Expression of sox6 Gene of Left Ventricle in Male Wistar Rat
Background & Aims: The expression of myocardium gene can be affected by endurance activity; besides, sox6 transcription factor influences its formation. This study aimed to investigate the effect of 14 weeks of endurance activity on expression of sox6 gene of left ventricle in male Wistar rats. Methods: Forteen rats were housed under the controlled conditions and after adjusting with endurance ...
متن کاملBad gene expression following effect of coenzyme Q10 on Wistar rat hippocampus with cerebral ischemia
Background: Q10 coenzyme is a potent antioxidant in the mitochondrial membrane. Releasing the oxygen free radicals occurs in the cerebral ischemia. Using Q10 coenzyme causes strength against oxidative after injury of cerebral ischemia during reperfusion. Also CoQ10 plays an important anti-apoptotic role to reduce Caspase 3 as a key enzyme neuroprotective in apoptosis. According to the sensitive...
