There has been considerable speculation regarding the function of the dentate gyrus (DG)—
a subregion of the mammalian hippocampus—in learning and memory. In this Perspective …

The dentate gyrus (DG) has a key role in hippocampal memory formation. Intriguingly, DG
lesions impair many, but not all, hippocampus-dependent mnemonic functions, indicating …

As a major component of the hippocampal trisynaptic circuit, the dentate gyrus (DG) relays
inputs from the entorhinal cortex to the CA3 subregion. Although the anatomy of the DG is …

In the mammalian hippocampus, the dentate gyrus (DG) is characterized by sparse and
powerful unidirectional projections to CA3 pyramidal cells, the so-called mossy fibers (MF) …

For decades, the mammalian hippocampus has been the focus of cellular, anatomical,
behavioral, and computational studies aimed at understanding the fundamental …

Anatomical observations, theoretical work and lesion experiments have led to the idea that
an important function of the dentate gyrus of the mammalian hippocampus is pattern …

The hippocampus mediates several higher brain functions, such as learning, memory, and
spatial coding. The input region of the hippocampus, the dentate gyrus, plays a critical role …

The dentate gyrus (DG) is crucial for behaviorally discriminating similar spatial memories,
predicting that DG place cells change (" remap") their relative spatial tuning (" place fields") …

Many theories of hippocampal function assume that area CA3 of hippocampus is capable of
performing rapid pattern storage, as well as pattern completion when a partial version of a …

Dentate gyrus (DG) is widely thought to provide a teaching signal that enables hippocampal
encoding of memories, but its role during retrieval is poorly understood. Some data and …
