Research News and Information

Definition of 'Hippocampus'

A curved elevation of gray matter extending the entire length of the floor of the temporal horn of the lateral ventricle (Dorland, 28th ed). The hippocampus, subiculum, and DENTATE GYRUS constitute the hippocampal formation. Sometimes authors include the ENTORHINAL CORTEX in the hippocampal formation.

Contribution of Kv channel subunits to glutamate-induced apoptosis in cultured rat hippocampal neurons.

30 Oct 2009 Potassium channel dysfunction has been implicated in apoptosis in many pathological conditions. However, which Kv channel subunit is involved in glutamate-induced apoptosis remains unknown. In this study, the contributions of nine Kv alpha and three ... Read more...


Abnormality of synaptic vesicular associated proteins in cerebral cortex and hippocampus after microwave exposure.

30 Oct 2009 Studies were performed to determine the effects of microwave on synaptic vesicles and the expression of synaptic vesicular associated proteins including synapsin I, VAMP-2, syntaxin, and synaptophysin. 25 Wistar rats were exposed to microwave which ... Read more...
