Septo-Hippocampo-Septal Loop and Memory Formation
The Cholinergic and GABAergic .bers of the medial septal/diagonal band of Broca (MS/DB) area project to the hippocampus and constitute the septo-hippocampal pathway, which has been proven to play a role in learning and memory. In addition, the hippocampus has bidirectional connections with the septum so that to self-regulate of cholinergic input. The activity of septal and hippocampal neuron...
متن کاملIdentification of the zebrafish ventral habenula as a homolog of the mammalian lateral habenula.
The mammalian habenula consists of the medial and lateral habenulae. Recent behavioral and electrophysiological studies suggested that the lateral habenula plays a pivotal role in controlling motor and cognitive behaviors by influencing the activity of dopaminergic and serotonergic neurons. Despite the functional significance, manipulating neural activity in this pathway remains difficult becau...
متن کاملAscending dopaminergic projections from the dorsal raphe nucleus in the rat.
The projections of putative dopamine containing cells within the dorsal raphe nucleus (DR) were studied using a combination of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) immunocytochemistry and fluorescent retrograde tracing. Substantial numbers of TH-immunoreactive cells in the DR were found to project to the nucleus accumbens. Progressively smaller numbers of cells were found to project to the lateral septum ...

The medical septal area (MSA) provides the major cholinergic projection to the hippocampus which is critical for function of the memory. Different brain areas through the MSA modulates septohippocampal functions. This study was designed to determin origins of inputs to this area. For this purpose, stereotaxic injections of one microliter HRP (25 percent, Sigma) by Hamilton syringe to the medica...
متن کاملThe Involvement of Intra-Hippocampal Dopamine Receptors in the Conditioned Place Preference Induced By Orexin Administration into the Rat Ventral Tegmental Area
The activity of dopamine (DA)-containing neurons in the ventral tegmental area (VTA) is a key mechanism in mesolimbic reward processing that has modulatory effects on different diencephalic structures like hippocampus (HIP), and receives inhibitory feedback and excitatory feed forward control. In addition, within the hippocampus, DA receptors are mostly located in the dorsal part (CA1) and dopa...
