Hippocampal pyramidal cells have been widely studied during locomotion, when theta oscillations are present, and during short wave ripples at rest, when replay takes place. However, we find a subset of pyramidal cells that are preferably active during rest, in the absence of theta oscillations and short wave ripples. We recorded these cells using two-photon imaging in dorsal CA1 of the hippocampus of mice, during a virtual reality object location recognition task. During locomotion, the cells show a similar level of activity as control cells, but their activity increases during rest, when this population of cells shows highly synchronous, oscillatory activity at a low frequency (0.1-0.4 Hz). In addition, during both locomotion and rest these cells show place coding, suggesting they may play a role in maintaining a representation of the current location, even when the animal is not moving. We performed simultaneous electrophysiological and calcium recordings, which showed a higher correlation of activity between the LFO and the hippocampal cells in the 0.1-0.4 Hz low frequency band during rest than during locomotion. However, the relationship between the LFO and calcium signals varied between electrodes, suggesting a localized effect. We used the Allen Brain Observatory Neuropixels Visual Coding dataset to further explore this. These data revealed localised low frequency oscillations in CA1 and DG during rest. Overall, we show a novel population of hippocampal cells, and a novel oscillatory band of activity in hippocampus during rest.
