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.

The Role of the Entorhinal Cortex in Paraphrenia

Current Psychiatry Reports, 2010
Evidence derived from postmortem brain studies has implicated the uncal cortex in paraphrenia. In the present review, we expand on the anatomic and physiologic nuances endogenous to this region that make entorhinal cortex pathology an important clinicopathological correlate to paraphrenia.

Input‐output relations in the entorhinal‐hippocampal‐entorhinal loop: Entorhinal cortex and dentate gyrus

Hippocampus, 1995
AbstractThe pattern of impulse transfer along the entorhinal‐hippocampal‐entorhinal loop has been analyzed in the guinea pig by field potential analysis. The loop was driven by impulse volleys conducted by presubicular commissural fibers, directly stimulated in the dorsal psalterium, which monosynaptically activated perforant path neurons in the medial

Entorhinal cortex modules of the human brain

The Journal of Comparative Neurology, 1996
Much is known about modular organization in the cerebral cortex, but this knowledge is skewed markedly toward primary sensory areas, and in fact, it has been difficult to demonstrate elsewhere. In this report, we test the hypothesis that a unique form of modules exists in the entorhinal area of the human cortex (Brodmann's area 28).

Entorhinal cortex and consolidated memory

Neuroscience Research, 2014
The entorhinal cortex is thought to support rapid encoding of new associations by serving as an interface between the hippocampus and neocortical regions. Although the entorhinal-hippocampal interaction is undoubtedly essential for initial memory acquisition, the entorhinal cortex contributes to memory retrieval even after the hippocampus is no longer ...

Persistent activity and memory in the entorhinal cortex

Trends in Neurosciences, 2003
The entorhinal cortex (EC) is an essential component of the medial temporal lobe long-term-memory system. Recently, Egorov et al. demonstrated that neurons in layer 5 of the EC show graded persistent activity: each neuron could maintain a constant rate firing over several minutes, even in the absence of input from other neurons.

The Entorhinal Cortex

Abstract This chapter begins with an historical overview of the definition of the entorhinal cortex, its relationship with the hippocampus, and why a separate chapter is deemed relevant. Subsequent sections review the neurostructural and connectional organization of the entorhinal cortex.
