Hierarchical Bayesian modeling of multi-region brain cell count data

The paper applies hierarchical Bayesian modeling to multi-region brain cell count data, showing improved inference over traditional methods in under-sampled datasets.

Layer 5 lateral entorhinal cortex neurons encode updating of object-place associations

The paper identifies layer 5 lateral entorhinal cortex neurons as engram cells involved in object-place association memory and shows they update representations when environments change.

Medial prefrontal cortex input to lateral entorhinal cortex supports both encoding and retrieval of associative recognition memory

This study shows that a direct connection from medial prefrontal cortex to lateral entorhinal cortex is critical for associative recognition memory, depending on the memory retention delay.

Perirhinal cortex structure and function is dysregulated by corticosteroid treatment

This study shows that chronic corticosteroid treatment disrupts synaptic structure and cognitive function in the perirhinal cortex.

Circadian regulation of hippocampal function is disrupted with chronic corticosteroid treatment

This study shows chronic corticosteroid exposure disrupts circadian regulation of hippocampal function and synaptic plasticity in rats, leading to memory loss.

Why do hippocampal mossy cells matter? It depends on the frequency and context.

This study shows mossy cells influence hippocampal function differently based on frequency and context, affecting memory and seizure risk.

Plasticity in prefrontal cortex induced by coordinated nucleus reuniens and hippocampal synaptic transmission

The paper investigates synaptic plasticity in the medial prefrontal cortex induced by coordinated nucleus reuniens and hippocampal inputs, showing distinct plasticity properties and a novel mechanism for circuit encoding.
