Two forms of presynaptic spike timing-dependent depression at entorhinal cortex-hippocampal synapses are mediated by astrocyte activity
Irene Martínez Gallego, Heriberto Coatl Cuaya, Antonio Rodríguez Moreno · FENS Forum 2024
The entorhinal cortex (EC) connects to the hippocampus sending different information from cortical areas that is first processed at the dentate gyrus (DG) including spatial, limbic, and sensory and information. Excitatory afferents from lateral (LPP) and medial (MPP) perforant pathways of the EC connecting to granule cells (GC) of the DG play a role in memory encoding and information processing. LPP- and MPP-GC synapses have distinct electrophysiological properties, and these differences potentially affecting the functional processing of information. However, the plasticity of these synapses i
