Spatial encoding in primate hippocampus during free navigation. [PDF]
, 2019 The hippocampus comprises two neural signals-place cells and θ oscillations-that contribute to facets of spatial navigation. Although their complementary relationship has been well established in rodents, their respective contributions in the primate ...

Differential medial temporal lobe morphometric predictors of item- and relational-encoded memories in healthy individuals and in individuals with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease. [PDF]
, 2017 INTRODUCTION:Episodic memory processes are supported by different subregions of the medial temporal lobe (MTL). In contrast to a unitary model of memory recognition supported solely by the hippocampus, a current model suggests that item encoding engages ...

The role of lipid metabolism in neuronal senescence
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Disrupted lipid metabolism, through alterations in lipid species or lipid droplet accumulation, can drive neuronal senescence. However, lipid dyshomeostasis can also occur alongside neuronal senescence, further amplifying tissue damage. Delineating how lipid‐induced senescence emerges in neurons and glial cells, and how it contributes to ageing and ...

Symptomatic remission and hippocampus volume in schizophrenia
Psychiatry and Clinical Psychopharmacology, 2021 Objective: A recent meta-analysis of brain structure studies in schizophrenia has demonstrated that the most commonly reported deficit in brain regions was in left medial temporal lobe, which contains the hippocampus.
