Exempel på hippocampus

• The medial cortex of reptiles does not appear to be involved in other tasks that are mediated by the hippocampus of mammals.

• Neuronal death in the hippocampus is promoted by plasmin-catalyzed degradation of laminin.

• There were several differences in the effects of stress at different stages of development on memory and the hippocampus in the studies reviewed above.

• Decreasing stress should have a beneficial effect, especially at later stages of life when the hippocampus may be more vulnerable.

• No obvious developmental abnormalities in the cortex and hippocampus at the light microscopic level are observed.

• This proposal could reconcile the apparently discrepant findings that, in animals, the hippocampus participates in spatial memory, whereas in humans, it participates in declarative memory.

• The problem of integrating current ideas about the function (not merely the operation) of hippocampus in animals and in humans is well presented.

• The team working on replacing these functions of the hippocampus has copied its behavior, rather than waiting to understand its intricacies.

• In addition to these behavioral differences, preterm children exhibited lower regional brain volumes in the cortex, ventricles, basal ganglia, amygdala, hippocampus, and corpus callosum.

• In this review, we focus on the structural complexities of astrocyte-synapse interactions in the hippocampus and their implications for understanding synaptic physiology, behavior and disease.

• This hypothesis clarifies the biological significance of the chaotic activity observed in the hippocampus and in the olfactory system.

• Thus, cells may be added to the adult hippocampus in anticipation of their need to mediate the acquisition, storage, and/or consolidation of future memories.

• The role of neonatal exposure to hormones on the later response of the hippocampus to androgens in adulthood is unknown.

• This factor appears to have a basis in subcortical limbic function, particularly the medial temporal lobe structures, the amygdala, and hippocampus.

• Magnetic resonance imaging volumes of the hippocampus and the amygdala in women with borderline personality disorder and early traumatization.
