Expression of the AMPA receptor subunits GluR1 and GluR2 is associated with granule cell maturation in the dentate gyrus

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2011
The dentate gyrus produces new granule neurons throughout adulthood in mammals from rodents to humans. During granule cell maturation, defined markers are expressed in a highly regulated sequential process, which is necessary for directed neuronal ...

Regrowing the adult brain: NF-κB controls functional circuit formation and tissue homeostasis in the dentate gyrus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Cognitive decline during aging is correlated with a continuous loss of cells within the brain and especially within the hippocampus, which could be regenerated by adult neurogenesis.

Elucidating a locus coeruleus-dentate gyrus dopamine pathway for operant reinforcement

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Animals can learn to repeat behaviors to earn desired rewards, a process commonly known as reinforcement learning. While previous work has implicated the ascending dopaminergic projections to the basal ganglia in reinforcement learning, little is known ...

Synaptic Plasticity in the Human Dentate Gyrus [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2000
Activity-dependent plasticity is a fundamental feature of most CNS synapses and is thought to be a synaptic correlate of memory in rodents. In humans, NMDA receptors have been linked to verbal memory processes, but it is unclear whether NMDA receptor-dependent synaptic plasticity can be recruited for information storage in the human CNS.

The DEC2‐SCN2A Axis is Essential for the Anticonvulsant Effects of Cannabidiol by Modulating Neuronal Plasticity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies DEC2 as a critical transcriptional repressor of Scn2a that directly binds E‐box motifs in its promoter to regulate neuronal plasticity and epileptogenesis. Functional manipulation of DEC2 alters seizure susceptibility in vivo. Cannabidiol enhances this repression, unveiling a novel DEC2‐SCN2A axis underlying its anticonvulsant ...

Human iPSC‐Derived Mononuclear Phagocytes Improve Cognition and Neural Health across Multiple Mouse Models of Aging and Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Short‐term intravenous treatments with iPSC‐derived mononuclear phagocytes (iMPs) improve cognitive decline and neural health in two mouse models of aging and in the 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. iMPs reduce levels of serum amyloid proteins that increase in aging and improve the health of hippocampal microglia and mossy cells.

Computational Pattern Separation Models of Dentate Gyrus Neural Subpopulation in the Hippocampus

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Neurological Sciences, 2022
Hippocampus is a part of the brain that has an essential role in memory and learning. It is involved in many cognitive and behavioral phenomena, including the pattern separation process: the ability to distinguish patterns with very high similarity.

Neuronal deletion of phosphatase and tensin homolog in mice results in spatial dysregulation of adult hippocampal neurogenesis

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2023
Adult neurogenesis is a persistent phenomenon in mammals that occurs in select brain structures in both healthy and diseased brains. The tumor suppressor gene, phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (Pten) has previously been found to ...

Nonrandom Local Circuits in the Dentate Gyrus [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Neuroscience, 2008
The dentate hilus has been extensively studied in relation to its potential role in memory and in temporal lobe epilepsy. Little is known, however, about the synapses formed between the two major cell types in this region, glutamatergic mossy cells and hilar interneurons, or the organization of local circuits involving these cells.

A Peripheral Mechanism of Depression: Disturbed Intestinal Epithelial Per2 Gene Expression Causes Depressive Behaviors in Mice with Circadian Rhythm Disruption via Gut Barrier Damage and Microbiota Dysbiosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Circardian rhythm disorder (CRD) causes abnormal expression of intestinal Period 2 (Per2) gene, which compromising intestinal barrier integrity and altering the gut microenvironment. Microbiota dysbiosis and aberrant metabolites production drive central inflammation, impair neurogenesis, and promote functional deficits, ultimately facilitating the ...
