Entorhinal cortex and cognition

Progress in Neuro-Psychopharmacology and Biological Psychiatry, 2009
Understanding the function of the entorhinal cortex (EC) has been an important subject over the years, not least because of its cortical intermediary to and from the hippocampus proper, and because of electrophysiological advances which have started to reveal the physiology in behaving animals.

Computational Modeling of Entorhinal Cortex

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2000
Computational modeling provides a means for linking the physiological and anatomical characteristics of entorhinal cortex at a cellular level to the functional role of this region in behavior. We have developed detailed simulations of entorhinal cortical neurons and networks, with an emphasis on the role of acetylcholine in entorhinal cortical function.

The computational model of entorhinal cortex

2013 IEEE International Conference on Information and Automation (ICIA), 2013
The entorhinal cortex (EC) plays a pivotal role for spatial representation and navigation in rat. Understanding how information is processed in the entorhinal cortex is essential to help us know the self-motion-based navigation. This article introduces the connection of entorhinal cortex and hippocampus, main cells in entorhinal cortex and their ...

Cytoarchitecture of the entorhinal cortex in schizophrenia

American Journal of Psychiatry, 1997
The purpose of this study was to determine whether schizophrenia is associated with abnormalities in neuronal migration in the entorhinal cortex.Nissl-stained sections through three cytoarchitectonic subdivisions of the entorhinal cortex were examined in postmortem brain specimens from 10 schizophrenic subjects and 10 matched normal comparison subjects.

Spatial Representation in the Entorhinal Cortex

Science, 2004
As the interface between hippocampus and neocortex, the entorhinal cortex is likely to play a pivotal role in memory. To determine how information is represented in this area, we measured spatial modulation of neural activity in layers of medial entorhinal cortex projecting to the hippocampus.

Entorhinal Cortex

2010
While decades of study have unraveled some of the basic principles of hippocampal structure and function, the adjacent entorhinal cortex (EC) has remained terra incognita in many respects. Recent studies suggest that the medial part of the entorhinal cortex is part of a two-dimensional metric map of the animal’s changing location in the environment.

Cellular properties of principal neurons in the rat entorhinal cortex. I. The lateral entorhinal cortex

Hippocampus, 2011
AbstractThe lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC) provides a major cortical input to the hippocampal formation, equaling that of the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC). To understand the functional contributions made by LEC, basic knowledge of individual neurons, in the context of the intrinsic network, is needed.

Cellular properties of principal neurons in the rat entorhinal cortex. II. The medial entorhinal cortex

Hippocampus, 2011
AbstractPrincipal neurons in different medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) layers show variations in spatial modulation that stabilize between 15 and 30 days postnatally. These in vivo variations are likely due to differences in intrinsic membrane properties and integrative capacities of neurons.
