Modeling the dentate gyrus

2007
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,

Dentate Gyrus Immaturity in Schizophrenia

The Neuroscientist, 2019
Hippocampal abnormalities have been heavily implicated in the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. The dentate gyrus of the hippocampus was shown to manifest an immature molecular profile in schizophrenia subjects, as well as in various animal models of the disorder.

Norepinephrine and the dentate gyrus

2007
Norepinephrine's role in the dentate gyrus is assessed based on a review of what is known about its innervation and receptor patterns and its functional effects at both cellular and behavioral levels. The data support seven hypotheses: (1) Norepinephrine's functional actions are primarily mediated by beta adrenoceptors and include electrophysiological ...

Neurotrophins in the dentate gyrus

2007
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.

Neuropeptide Y in the dentate gyrus

2007
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is contained in at least four types of GABAergic interneurons in the dentate gyrus, many of which also contain somatostatin and give rise to the dense NPY innervation of the dentate outer molecular layer. In humans but not rats, minute amounts of NPY are also normally expressed in dentate granule cells, while seizure activity in ...

Somatostatin in the dentate gyrus

2007
The neuropeptide somatostatin (SST) is expressed in a discrete population of interneurons in the dentate gyrus. These interneurons have their soma in the hilus and project to the outer molecular layer onto dendrites of dentate granule cells, adjacent to perforant path input.

Opioid systems in the dentate gyrus

2007
Opiate drugs alter cognitive performance and influence hippocampal excitability, including long-term potentiation (LTP) and seizure activity. The dentate gyrus (DG) contains two major opioid peptides, enkephalins and dynorphins, which have opposing effects on excitability. Enkephalins preferentially bind to delta- and mu-opioid receptors (DORs and MORs)

Dentate gyrus neurogenesis and depression

2007
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.

Adult neurogenesis in the mammalian dentate gyrus

Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, 2019
AbstractEarlier observations in neuroscience suggested that no new neurons form in the mature central nervous system. Evidence now indicates that new neurons do form in the adult mammalian brain. Two regions of the mature mammalian brain generate new neurons: (a) the border of the lateral ventricles of the brain (subventricular zone) and (b) the ...

An analysis of the dentate gyrus function

Behavioural Brain Research, 2013
In this review article the emphasis will be on the role of the DG (dorsal and ventral) in supporting memory based on the operation of specific processes. Based on the development of computational models of dorsal dentate gyrus (dDG) and behavioral evidence based on dysfunction of dDG, this review will show that the dDG mediates mnemonic processing of ...
