Neuropeptide Y in the dentate gyrus
2007Neuropeptide 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
2007The 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
2007Opiate 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
2007Major 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.

On the number of neurons in the dentate gyrus of the rat
Brain Research, 1985We have estimated the number of dentate granule cells in Sprague-Dawley and Wistar rats at 1, 4 and 12 months of age. In Sprague-Dawley rats the number of granule cells is relatively constant throughout this period at about 1 million. In Wistar rats, on the other hand, there is a progressive increase in the number from about 700,000 at 1 month to 1 ...

An analysis of the dentate gyrus function
Behavioural Brain Research, 2013In 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 ...

Adult neurogenesis in the mammalian dentate gyrus
Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, 2019AbstractEarlier 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 ...

Electrophysiology of dentate gyrus granule cells
Journal of Neurophysiology, 1984The orthodromic synaptic responses, membrane properties, and responses of dentate gyrus granule cells (DGCs) to several convulsant agents were studied in the in vitro hippocampal slice preparation. Orthodromic stimulation via the perforant pathway (PP) evoked excitatory-inhibitory postsynaptic potentials (EPSP-IPSP) sequences in 27 of 34 DGCs studied.

Genetic regulation of dentate gyrus morphogenesis
2007The dentate gyrus is one of the small number of forebrain areas that have continued adult neurogenesis. During development the dentate gyrus acquires the capacity for neurogenesis by generating a new neurogenic stem cell niche at the border between the hilus and dentate granule cell layer. This is in distinction to the other prominent zone of continued

Epileptogenesis in the dentate gyrus: a critical perspective
2007The dentate gyrus has long been a focal point for studies on the molecular, cellular, and network mechanisms responsible for epileptogenesis in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Although several hypothetical mechanisms are considered in this chapter, two that have garnered particular interest and experimental support are: (1) the selective loss of ...
