Two theories have dominated research on hippocampal function over the past quarter century. The first is that it is involved in the formation of memories for everyday facts and events that can be consciously recalled—collectively called declarative memory.
The hippocampal formation is comprised of a group of cortical regions, including the dentate gyrus, hippocampus, subiculum, presubiculum, parasubiculum, and entorhinal cortex. The hippocampal formation plays a central role in the brain network essential for memory function.
30 paź 2023 · The hippocampus is a paired structure present in each temporal lobe of the brain. It takes its name from the Greek word for the seahorse, because it resembles this small upright-swimming fish. The hippocampus is part of a larger structure of the temporal lobe called the hippocampal formation.
1 sty 2013 · The hippocampus, separated from the subiculum by the hippocampal sulcus, extends forward to the uncus to occupy its posterior segment. The hippocampus is bordered by the fimbria (Figs. 3.4 and 3.5).
7 gru 2015 · In this primer, I will first review the basic anatomy of the hippocampus, giving a historical overview of early conceptions of hippocampal circuitry and describing modern findings that are the inspiration of much current work on hippocampal physiology and function.
The first part describes the fine structures of the hippocampus and is illustrated with new original figures. A survey is then provided of current concepts explaining the functions of the hippocampus, and the external and internal hippocampal vascularization is precisely described.
