Primate inhibitory neurons in hippocampal CA3-CA1 intrinsic circuits
Abstract The hippocampus is associated with adaptive learning and memory, processing multimodal signals within its intrinsic circuits, where inhibitory neurons have a fundamental role. Studies of inhibitory hippocampal neurons in rodents have produced massive data on their types, physiology, and connectivity, organized into large databases, but not yet achieved for primates. Given the primate expansion of the hippocampus in parallel with the cortex, a primate animal model is crucial. Concomitant elaboration of the hippocampal inhibitory system across primates, facilitates primate-specific circuit interactions, as seen in the cortex, thalamus, and amygdala. In concert with the hippocampal…
