Abstract Early Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is associated with hippocampal hyperactivity and decreased sleep quality. Here we show that homeostatic mechanisms transiently counteract the increased excitatory drive to CA1 neurons in App NL-G-F mice, but this mechanism fails older mice. Spatial transcriptomics analysis identifies Pmch as part of adaptive response encodes melanin-concentrating hormone (MCH), which produced sleep–active lateral hypothalamic project modulate memory. We MCH...
The hippocampal region has long been considered critical for memory of time, and recent evidence shows that network operations single-unit activity in the hippocampus medial entorhinal cortex (MEC) correlate with elapsed time. However, whether MEC is necessary timing remains largely unknown. Here we expressed DREADDs (designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs) under CaMKIIa promoter to preferentially target excitatory neurons chemogenetic silencing, while freely moving male...
Stereotaxic access to brain areas underneath the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) is notoriously challenging. As a major drainage vessel, covering whole extension of fissure, SSS impedes direct bilateral underlying regions for recording and stimulation probes, drug-delivery cannulas, injection devices. We now describe new method transection retraction in rats, that allows accurate placement microinjection devices, or chronic electrode while avoiding hemorrhage ensuing deleterious consequences...
