Closing the loop: Development and topography in subicular-to-parahippocampal projections
Dahl, Annelene Gulden (Master thesis, 2012)The hippocampal formation (HF) and the parahippocampal region (PHR) are two stronglyand reciprocally connected components of the hippocampal memory system. While theentorhinal cortex provides the main input from PHR to HF, ... -
Developmental mechanisms of spontaneous and sensory evoked activity in the zebrafish habenula
Fore, Stephanie (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2020:306, Doctoral thesis, 2020)Utviklingsmekanismer for spontan- og sensorisk vekket aktivitet i habenula i sebrafisk For å kunne utføre fleksible endringer i vår atferd må vi kunne samle inn og evaluere informasjon som kommer fra både interne kilder ... -
Entorhinal cell-specific changes as an initial cause of Alzheimer's disease
Kobro-Flatmoen, Asgeir (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2017:74, Doctoral thesis, 2017)Evidence shows that Alzheimer’s disease (AD) begins with subtle and anatomically restricted pathological changes within the brain, ultimately leading to widespread neuronal loss and dementia. While high numbers of ... -
Extrinsic connectivity of principal neurons in layer II of the entorhinal cortex
Doan, Thanh Pierre (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:336, Doctoral thesis, 2019) -
Not All That Is Gold Glitters: PV-IRES-Cre Mouse Line Shows Low Efficiency of Labeling of Parvalbumin Interneurons in the Perirhinal Cortex
Nigro, Maximiliano Jose; Kirikae, Hinako; Kjelsberg, Kasper; Nair Raveendran, Rajeevkumar; Witter, Menno P. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The wide diversity of cortical inhibitory neuron types populating the cortex allows the assembly of diverse microcircuits and endows these circuits with different computational properties. Thus, characterizing neuronal ... -
Parieto-frontal architecture, connectivity and behavioral representations in rodents
Hovde, Karoline (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2019:348, Doctoral thesis, 2019)The posterior parietal cortex (PPC) and frontal motor cortices are important for a variety of cognitive processes including sensorimotor integration, decision-making, planning and execution goal-directed actions. Across ... -
Quantifying the parvalbumin-positive interneurons in the rodent lateral and medial entorhinal cortex
Laja, Arthur (Master thesis, 2019)The entorhinal cortex (EC) has been implicated in many functions related to spatial navigation, memory, and the perception of time. It is the major input and output pathway to the hippocampus, and this puts an enormous ... -
Regional changes in parvalbumin and calbindin expression in fear memory circuits of the developing mouse brain
Overdevest, Monika I. (Master thesis, 2022)Uttrykt i nevroner og vidt distribuert i den voksne musehjernen finner vi kalsiumbindende proteiner. Gjennom utvikling bidrar kalsiumbindende proteiner som parvalbumin og calbindin til modningen av nevrale nettverk som ... -
Retrosplenial connectivity with the (para)hippocampal region
Sugar, Jørgen Larsen (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2016:244, Doctoral thesis, 2016)The hippocampal formation and parahippocampal region (HF-PHR) receives input from a variety of cortical and subcortical structures, and one of the cortical regions which are heavily interconnected with HF-PHR is the ... -
Structural connectivity-based segmentation of the human entorhinal cortex
Syversen, Ingrid Framås; Witter, Menno P.; Kobro-Flatmoen, Asgeir; Goa, Pål Erik; Schröder, Tobias Navarro; Doeller, Christian F. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The medial (MEC) and lateral entorhinal cortex (LEC), widely studied in rodents, are well defined and characterized. In humans, however, the exact locations of their homologues remain uncertain. Previous functional magnetic ... -
The Specificity of Output from Medial Entorhinal Cortex
Berndtsson, Christin H. (Master thesis, 2013)The hippocampal formation(HF) and the parahippocampal region (PHR) have been implicated in learning and memory functions. These regions and their subregions form a highly interconnected and complex microcircuitry, where ... -
Transgenic Rat Model of Alzheimer's Disease: Electrophysiological and Morphological Properties of Lateral and Medial Entorhinal Cortex Layer ll Neurons
Anjem, Rabiya (Master thesis, 2013)Alzheimer’s disease is the premier neurodegenerative disorder and form of dementia affecting tens of millions today. Animal models have provided vital insights into the mechanism and course of this pathology but answers ...
