Functional dissection of the corticohippocampal circuit underlying neuronal ensemble dynamics in spatial learning and memory
Haoyu Xu, Zhongjie Zhang, Hei Matthew Yip, Jacque Pak Kan Ip · FENS Forum 2024
Memories have been suggested to be stored in groups of neurons known as neuronal ensembles, or “engrams”, and neuroplasticity is believed to be the underlying mechanism that allows the formation or remodeling of these ensembles, thus allowing memory modifications. Critically, the hippocampus has been described as a central hub for neuronal ensembles. In the context of fear memory, the representation of the hippocampal neuronal ensemble has been characterized, while little is known about the neuronal ensemble within the hippocampus and the upstream circuits in spatial learning and memory.
