Forgetting as a form of adaptive engram cell plasticity
TJ Ryan, PW Frankland - Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 2022 - nature.com
One leading hypothesis suggests that memories are stored in ensembles of neurons (or
'engram cells') and that successful recall involves reactivation of these ensembles. A logical …

Evidences for adult hippocampal neurogenesis in humans
EP Moreno-Jiménez, J Terreros-Roncal… - Journal of …, 2021 - Soc Neuroscience
The rodent hippocampus generates new neurons throughout life. This process, named adult
hippocampal neurogenesis (AHN), is a striking form of neural plasticity that occurs in the …

Microglia mediate forgetting via complement-dependent synaptic elimination
Synapses between engram cells are believed to be substrates for memory storage, and the
weakening or loss of these synapses leads to the forgetting of related memories. We found …
