An analysis of dentate gyrus function (an update) (2017, neutral): “For a more detailed description see [4,5].”
Dendrites of dentate gyrus granule cells contribute to pattern separation by controlling sparsity (2016, background): “1A); the molecular, granular, and polymorphic (hilus) (Amaral et al., 2007).”
Retrograde monosynaptic tracing reveals the temporal evolution of inputs onto new neurons in the adult dentate gyrus and olfactory bulb (2013, background): “Additionally, among the GFP-labeled cells in the hilus already from the second week on, we also observed mossy cells, the local excitatory input to granule neurons in the DG (27).”
Functional Imaging of Dentate Granule Cells in the Adult Mouse Hippocampus (2016, background): “The dentate gyrus (DG), part of the mammalian hippocampus, is critically involved in essential brain functions underlying certain aspects of learning and memory (Amaral et al., 2007; Jonas and Lisman, 2014).”
Computational influence of adult neurogenesis on memory encoding. (2009, neutral): “The connections formed within the network mimicked the general topography of the observed connectivity in vivo (Amaral et al., 2007; Figure S3).”
Reassessing pattern separation in the dentate gyrus (2013, background): “Given the large number of granule cells relative to CA3 cells (Amaral et al., 2007), and the sparse nature of CA3 encoding, it is highly probable that any given inputs to the hippocampus, regardless of their similarity, will establish non-overlapping sets of encoding ensembles in the CA3.”
A Role for Hilar Cells in Pattern Separation in the Dentate Gyrus: A Computational Approach (2009, background): “Like the pyramidal cells of the hippocampus, the granule cells are packed within a discrete cell layer, called the granule cell layer (GCL, Amaral et al., 2007).”
