Abstract
The reactivation of experience-based neural activity patterns in the hippocampus is crucial for learning and memory. These reactivation patterns and their associated sharp-wave ripples (SWRs) are highly variable. However, this variability is missed by commonly used spectral methods. Here, we use topological and dimensionality reduction techniques to analyze the waveform of ripples recorded at the pyramidal layer of CA1. We show that SWR waveforms distribute along a continuum in a low-dimensional space, which conveys information about the underlying layer-specific synaptic inputs. A decoder trained in this space successfully links individual ripples with their expected sinks and sources, demonstrating how physiological mechanisms shape SWR variability. Furthermore, we found that SWR waveforms segregated differently during wakefulness and sleep before and after a series of cognitive tasks, with striking effects of novelty and learning. Our results thus highlight how the topological analysis of ripple waveforms enables a deeper physiological understanding of SWRs.

Abstract
One of the most captivating questions in neuroscience revolves around the brain's ability to efficiently and durably capture and store information. It must process continuous input from sensory organs while also encoding memories that can persist throughout a lifetime. What are the cellular-, subcellular-, and network-level mechanisms that underlie this remarkable capacity for long-term information storage? Furthermore, what contributions do distinct types of GABAergic interneurons make to this process? As the hippocampus plays a pivotal role in memory, our review focuses on three aspects: (1) delineation of hippocampal interneuron types and their connectivity, (2) interneuron plasticity, and (3) activity patterns of interneurons during memory-related rhythms, including the role of long-range interneurons and disinhibition. We explore how these three elements, together showcasing the remarkable diversity of inhibitory circuits, shape the processing of memories in the hippocampus.

Abstract
Heterozygous mutations in the dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1a (Dyrk1a) gene define a syndromic form of autism spectrum disorder. The synaptic and circuit mechanisms mediating DYRK1A functions in social cognition are unclear. Here, we identify a social experience-sensitive mechanism in hippocampal mossy fiber-parvalbumin interneuron (PV IN) synapses by which DYRK1A recruits feedforward inhibition of CA3 and CA2 to promote social recognition. We employ genetic epistasis logic to identify a cytoskeletal protein, ABLIM3, as a synaptic substrate of DYRK1A. We demonstrate that Ablim3 downregulation in dentate granule cells of adult heterozygous Dyrk1a mice is sufficient to restore PV IN-mediated inhibition of CA3 and CA2 and social recognition. Acute chemogenetic activation of PV INs in CA3/CA2 of adult heterozygous Dyrk1a mice also rescued social recognition. Together, these findings illustrate how targeting DYRK1A synaptic and circuit substrates as "enhancers of DYRK1A function" harbors the potential to reverse Dyrk1a haploinsufficiency-associated circuit and cognition impairments.

Abstract
The hippocampal CA2 region has received greater attention in recent years due to its fundamental role in social memory and hippocampus-dependent memory processing. Unlike entorhinal cortical inputs, the Schaffer collateral inputs to CA2 do not support activity-dependent long-term potentiation (LTP), which serves as the basis for long-term memories. This LTP-resistant zone also expresses genes that restrict plasticity. With the aim of exploring social interaction and sociability in rats that were subjected to juvenile stress, we addressed questions about how the neural circuitry is altered and its effects on social behavior. Although there was induction of LTP in both Schaffer collateral and entorhinal cortical pathways in juvenile-stressed rats, LTP declined in both pathways after 2-3 h. Moreover, exogenous bath application of substance P, a neuropeptide that resulted in slow onset long-lasting potentiation in control animals while it failed to induce LTP in juvenile-stressed rats. Our study reveals that juvenile-stressed rats show behavioral and cellular abnormalities with a long-lasting impact in adulthood.

Abstract
The functional interplay between the corticolimbic GABAergic and opioidergic systems plays a crucial role in regulating the reward system and cognitive aspects of motivational behaviors leading to the development of addictive behaviors and disorders. This review provides a summary of the shared mechanisms of GABAergic and opioidergic transmission, which modulate the activity of dopaminergic neurons located in the ventral tegmental area (VTA), the central hub of the reward mechanisms. This review comprehensively covers the neuroanatomical and neurobiological aspects of corticolimbic inhibitory neurons that express opioid receptors, which act as modulators of corticolimbic GABAergic transmission. The presence of opioid and GABA receptors on the same neurons allows for the modulation of the activity of dopaminergic neurons in the ventral tegmental area, which plays a key role in the reward mechanisms of the brain. This colocalization of receptors and their immunochemical markers can provide a comprehensive understanding for clinicians and researchers, revealing the neuronal circuits that contribute to the reward system. Moreover, this review highlights the importance of GABAergic transmission-induced neuroplasticity under the modulation of opioid receptors. It discusses their interactive role in reinforcement learning, network oscillation, aversive behaviors, and local feedback or feedforward inhibitions in reward mechanisms. Understanding the shared mechanisms of these systems may lead to the development of new therapeutic approaches for addiction, reward-related disorders, and drug-induced cognitive impairment.

Abstract
The hippocampus is a center for spatial and episodic memory formation in rodents. Understanding the composition of subregions and circuitry maps of the hippocampus is essential for elucidating the mechanism of memory formation and recall. For decades, the trisynaptic circuit (entorhinal cortex layer II-dentate gyrus - CA3-CA1) has been considered the neural network substrate responsible for learning and memory. Recently, CA2 has emerged as an important area in the hippocampal circuitry, with distinct functions from those of CA3. In this article, we review the historical definition of the hippocampal area CA2 and the differential projection patterns between CA2 and CA3 pyramidal neurons. We provide a concise and comprehensive map of CA2 outputs by comparing (1) ipsi versus contra projections, (2) septal versus temporal projections, and (3) lamellar structures of CA2 and CA3 pyramidal neurons.

Abstract
Hippocampal area CA2 plays a critical role in social recognition memory and has unique cellular and molecular properties that distinguish it from areas CA1 and CA3. In addition to having a particularly high density of interneurons, the inhibitory transmission in this region displays two distinct forms of long-term synaptic plasticity. Early studies on human hippocampal tissue have reported unique alteration in area CA2 with several pathologies and psychiatric disorders. In this review, we present recent studies revealing changes in inhibitory transmission and plasticity of area CA2 in mouse models of multiple sclerosis, autism spectrum disorder, Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia and the 22q11.2 deletion syndrome and propose how these changes could underly deficits in social cognition observed during these pathologies.

Abstract
The hippocampal CA2 region, an area important for social memory, has been suspected to play a role in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) because of its resistance to degeneration observed in neighboring CA1 and CA3 regions in both humans and rodent models of TLE. However, little is known about whether alterations in CA2 properties promote seizure generation or propagation. Here, we addressed the role of CA2 using the pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus model of TLE. Ex vivo electrophysiological recordings from acute hippocampal slices revealed a set of coordinated changes that enhance CA2 PC intrinsic excitability, reduce CA2 inhibitory input, and increase CA2 excitatory output to its major CA1 synaptic target. Moreover, selective chemogenetic silencing of CA2 pyramidal cells caused a significant decrease in the frequency of spontaneous seizures measured in vivo. These findings provide the first evidence that CA2 actively contributes to TLE seizure activity and may thus be a promising therapeutic target.

Abstract
Area CA2 is a critical region for diverse hippocampal functions including social recognition memory. This region has unique properties and connectivity. Notably, intra-hippocampal excitatory inputs to CA2 lack canonical long-term plasticity, but inhibitory transmission expresses a long-term depression mediated by Delta-opioid receptors (DOR-iLTDs). Evidence indicates that DOR-iLTDs are insufficient to underlie social coding. Here, we report a novel inhibitory plasticity mediated by cannabinoid type 1 receptor activation (CB1R-iLTD). Surprisingly, CB1R-iLTD requires previous induction of DOR-iLTDs, indicating a permissive role for DOR plasticity. Blockade of CB1Rs in CA2 completely prevents social memory formation. Furthermore, the sequentiality of DOR- and CB1R-mediated plasticity occurs in vivo during successive social interactions. Finally, CB1R-iLTD is altered in a mouse model of schizophrenia with impaired social cognition but is rescued by a manipulation that also rescues social memory. Altogether, our data reveal a unique interplay between two inhibitory plasticities and a novel mechanism for social memory formation.

Abstract
Opioids mediate their effects via opioid receptors: mu, delta, and kappa. At the neuronal level, opioid receptors are generally inhibitory, presynaptically reducing neurotransmitter release and postsynaptically hyperpolarizing neurons. However, opioid receptor-mediated regulation of neuronal function and synaptic transmission is not uniform in expression pattern and mechanism across the brain. The localization of receptors within specific cell types and neurocircuits determine the effects that endogenous and exogenous opioids have on brain function. In this review we will explore the similarities and differences in opioid receptor-mediated regulation of neurotransmission across different brain regions. We discuss how future studies can consider potential cell-type, regional, and neural pathway-specific effects of opioid receptors in order to better understand how opioid receptors modulate brain function.

Abstract
The hippocampus contains a diverse array of inhibitory interneurons that gate information flow through local cortico-hippocampal circuits to regulate memory storage. Although most studies of interneurons have focused on their role in fast synaptic inhibition mediated by GABA release, different classes of interneurons express unique sets of neuropeptides, many of which have been shown to exert powerful effects on neuronal function and memory when applied pharmacologically. However, relatively little is known about whether and how release of endogenous neuropeptides from inhibitory cells contributes to their behavioral role in regulating memory formation. Here we report that vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP)-expressing interneurons participate in social memory storage by enhancing information transfer from hippocampal CA3 pyramidal neurons to CA2 pyramidal neurons. Notably, this action depends on release of the neuropeptide enkephalin from VIP neurons, causing long-term depression of feedforward inhibition onto CA2 pyramidal cells. Moreover, VIP neuron activity in the CA2 region is increased selectively during exploration of a novel conspecific. Our findings, thus, enhance our appreciation of how GABAergic neurons can regulate synaptic plasticity and mnemonic behavior by demonstrating that such actions can be mediated by release of a specific neuropeptide, rather than through classic fast inhibitory transmission.

Abstract
Parvalbumin (PV)-expressing interneurons which are often associated with the specific extracellular matrix perineuronal net (PNN) play a critical role in the alteration of brain activity and memory performance in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The integrity of these neurons is crucial for normal functioning of the hippocampal subfield CA2, and hence, social memory formation. Here, we find that social memory deficits of mouse models of AD are associated with decreased presence of PNN around PV cells and long-term synaptic plasticity in area CA2. Furthermore, single local injection of the growth factor neuregulin-1 (NRG1) is sufficient to restore both PV/PNN levels and social memory performance of these mice. Thus, the PV/PNN disruption in area CA2 could play a causal role in social memory deficits of AD mice, and activating PV cell pro-maturation pathways may be sufficient to restore social memory. Tg2576 mouse model of AD have normal sociability, but cannot form social memory Tg2576 mice have less detectable PV interneurons and PNN in hippocampal area CA2 PV-dependent long-term plasticity is altered in CA2 of Tg2576 mice NRG1 in CA2 increases PV/PNN and restores social memory of these AD mice

Abstract
Disease-modifying therapies, such as neuroprotective and neurorestorative interventions, are strongly desired for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) treatment. Several studies have suggested that histone deacetylase 2 (HDAC2) inhibition can exhibit disease-modifying effects in AD patients. However, whether HDAC2 inhibition shows neuroprotective and neurorestorative effects under neuropathic conditions, such as amyloid β (Aβ)-elevated states, remains poorly understood. Here, we performed HDAC2-specific knockdown in CA1 pyramidal cells and showed that HDAC2 knockdown increased the length of dendrites and the number of mushroom-like spines of CA1 basal dendrites in APP/PS1 transgenic mouse model. Furthermore, HDAC2 knockdown also ameliorated the deficits in hippocampal CA1 long-term potentiation and memory impairment in contextual fear conditioning tests. Taken together, our results support the notion that specific inhibition of HDAC2 has the potential to slow the disease progression of AD through ameliorating Aβ-induced neuronal impairments.

Abstract
Cellular diversity supports the computational capacity and flexibility of cortical circuits. Accordingly, principal neurons at the CA1 output node of the murine hippocampus are increasingly recognized as a heterogeneous population. Their genes, molecular content, intrinsic morpho-physiology, connectivity, and function seem to segregate along the main anatomical axes of the hippocampus. Since these axes reflect the temporal order of principal cell neurogenesis, we directly examined the relationship between birthdate and CA1 pyramidal neuron diversity, focusing on the ventral hippocampus. We used a genetic fate-mapping approach that allowed tagging three groups of age-matched principal neurons: pioneer, early-, and late-born. Using a combination of neuroanatomy, slice physiology, connectivity tracing, and cFos staining in mice, we show that birthdate is a strong predictor of CA1 principal cell diversity. We unravel a subpopulation of pioneer neurons recruited in familiar environments with remarkable positioning, morpho-physiological features, and connectivity. Therefore, despite the expected plasticity of hippocampal circuits, given their role in learning and memory, the diversity of their main components is also partly determined at the earliest steps of development.

Complement-associated loss of CA2 inhibitory synapses in the demyelinated hippocampus impairs memory. Acta Neuropathol 2021; 142:643-667.

Abstract
The complement system is implicated in synapse loss in the MS hippocampus, but the functional consequences of synapse loss remain poorly understood. Here, in post-mortem MS hippocampi with demyelination we find that deposits of the complement component C1q are enriched in the CA2 subfield, are linked to loss of inhibitory synapses and are significantly higher in MS patients with cognitive impairments compared to those with preserved cognitive functions. Using the cuprizone mouse model of demyelination, we corroborated that C1q deposits are highest within the demyelinated dorsal hippocampal CA2 pyramidal layer and co-localized with inhibitory synapses engulfed by microglia/macrophages. In agreement with the loss of inhibitory perisomatic synapses, we found that Schaffer collateral feedforward inhibition but not excitation was impaired in CA2 pyramidal neurons and accompanied by intrinsic changes and a reduced spike output. Finally, consistent with excitability deficits, we show that cuprizone-treated mice exhibit impaired encoding of social memories. Together, our findings identify CA2 as a critical circuit in demyelinated intrahippocampal lesions and memory dysfunctions in MS.

Abstract
In mammals, the selective transformation of transient experience into stored memory occurs in the hippocampus, which develops representations of specific events in the context in which they occur. In this review, we focus on the development of hippocampal circuits and the self-organized dynamics embedded within them since the latter critically support the role of the hippocampus in learning and memory. We first discuss evidence that adult hippocampal cells and circuits are sculpted by development as early as during embryonic neurogenesis. We argue that these primary developmental programs provide a scaffold onto which later experience of the external world can be grafted. Next, we review the different sequences in the development of hippocampal cells and circuits at anatomical and functional levels. We cover a period extending from neurogenesis and migration to the appearance of phenotypic diversity within hippocampal cells, and their wiring into functional networks. We describe the progressive emergence of network dynamics in the hippocampus, from sensorimotor-driven early sharp waves to sequences of place cells tracking relational information. We outline the critical turn points and discontinuities in that developmental journey, and close by formulating open questions. We propose that rewinding the process of hippocampal development helps understand the main organization principles of memory circuits.

Abstract
The regulator of G-protein signaling 14 (RGS14) is a multifunctional signaling protein that regulates post synaptic plasticity in neurons. RGS14 is expressed in the brain regions essential for learning, memory, emotion, and stimulus-induced behaviors, including the basal ganglia, limbic system, and cortex. Behaviorally, RGS14 regulates spatial and object memory, female-specific responses to cued fear conditioning, and environmental- and psychostimulant-induced locomotion. At the cellular level, RGS14 acts as a scaffolding protein that integrates G protein, Ras/ERK, and calcium/calmodulin signaling pathways essential for spine plasticity and cell signaling, allowing RGS14 to naturally suppress long-term potentiation (LTP) and structural plasticity in hippocampal area CA2 pyramidal cells. Recent proteomics findings indicate that RGS14 also engages the actomyosin system in the brain, perhaps to impact spine morphogenesis. Of note, RGS14 is also a nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein, where its role in the nucleus remains uncertain. Balanced nuclear import/export and dendritic spine localization are likely essential for RGS14 neuronal functions as a regulator of synaptic plasticity. Supporting this idea, human genetic variants disrupting RGS14 localization also disrupt RGS14’s effects on plasticity. This review will focus on the known and unexplored roles of RGS14 in cell signaling, physiology, disease and behavior.

Abstract
The hippocampus is critical for memory formation. The hypothalamic supramammillary nucleus (SuM) sends long-range projections to hippocampal area CA2. While the SuM-CA2 connection is critical for social memory, how this input acts on the local circuit is unknown. Using transgenic mice, we found that SuM axon stimulation elicited mixed excitatory and inhibitory responses in area CA2 pyramidal neurons (PNs). Parvalbumin-expressing basket cells were largely responsible for the feedforward inhibitory drive of SuM over area CA2. Inhibition recruited by the SuM input onto CA2 PNs increased the precision of action potential firing both in conditions of low and high cholinergic tone. Furthermore, SuM stimulation in area CA2 modulated CA1 activity, indicating that synchronized CA2 output drives a pulsed inhibition in area CA1. Hence, the network revealed here lays basis for understanding how SuM activity directly acts on the local hippocampal circuit to allow social memory encoding.

Abstract
There is considerable evidence for hippocampal time cells that briefly activate in succession to represent the temporal structure of memories. Previous studies have shown that time cells can be disrupted while leaving place cells intact, indicating that spatial and temporal information can be coded in parallel. However, the circuits in which spatial and temporal information are coded have not been clearly identified. Here we investigated temporal and spatial coding by dorsal hippocampal CA1 (dCA1) neurons in mice trained on a classic spatial working-memory task. On each trial, the mice approached the same choice point on a maze but were trained to alternate between traversing one of two distinct spatial routes (spatial coding phase). In between trials, there was a 10-s mnemonic delay during which the mouse continuously ran in a fixed location (temporal coding phase). Using cell-type-specific optogenetic methods, we found that inhibiting dorsal CA2 (dCA2) inputs into dCA1 degraded time cell coding during the mnemonic delay and impaired the mouse's subsequent memory-guided choice. Conversely, inhibiting dCA2 inputs during the spatial coding phase had a negligible effect on place cell activity in dCA1 and no effect on behavior. Collectively, our work demonstrates that spatial and temporal coding in dCA1 is largely segregated with respect to the dCA2-dCA1 circuit and suggests that CA2 plays a critical role in representing the flow of time in memory within the hippocampal network.

Abstract
Hippocampal region CA2 has received increased attention due to its importance in social recognition memory. While its specific function remains to be identified, there are indications that CA2 plays a major role in a variety of situations, widely extending beyond social memory. In this targeted review, we highlight lines of research which have begun to converge on a more fundamental role for CA2 in hippocampus-dependent memory processing. We discuss recent proposals that speak to the computations CA2 may perform within the hippocampal circuit.

Abstract
Parvalbumin (PV) interneuron dysfunction is associated with various brain disorders, including Alzheimer disease (AD). Here, we asked whether early PV neuron hyperexcitability primes the hippocampus for amyloid beta-induced functional impairment. We show that prolonged chemogenetic activation of PV neurons induces long-term hyperexcitability of these cells, disrupts synaptic transmission, and causes spatial memory deficits on the short-term. On the long-term, pyramidal cells also become hyperexcitable, and synaptic transmission and spatial memory are restored. However, under these conditions of increased excitability of both PV and pyramidal cells, a single low-dose injection of amyloid beta directly into the hippocampus significantly impairs PV neuron function, increases pyramidal neuron excitability, and reduces synaptic transmission, resulting in significant spatial memory deficits. Taken together, our data show that an initial hyperexcitable state of PV neurons renders hippocampal function vulnerable to amyloid beta and may contribute to an increased risk for developing AD. Hyperexcitable hippocampal PV neurons impair spatial memory When excitability of pyramidal neurons also increases, spatial memory is restored This overall network hyperstate is particularly sensitive to amyloid-beta toxicity PV neuron hyperexcitability increases risk for Alzheimer disease

Abstract
Sharp-wave ripples are complex neurophysiological events recorded along the trisynaptic hippocampal circuit (i.e. from CA3 to CA1 and the subiculum) during slow-wave sleep and awake states. They arise locally but scale brain-wide to the hippocampal target regions at cortical and subcortical structures. During these events, neuronal firing sequences are replayed retrospectively or prospectively and in the forward or reverse order as defined by experience. They could reflect either pre-configured firing sequences, learned sequences or an option space to inform subsequent decisions. How can different sequences arise during sharp-wave ripples? Emerging data suggest the hippocampal circuit is organized in different loops across the proximal (close to dentate gyrus) and distal (close to entorhinal cortex) axis. These data also disclose a so-far neglected laminar organization of the hippocampal output during sharp-wave events. Here, I discuss whether by incorporating cell-type-specific mechanisms converging on deep and superficial CA1 sublayers along the proximodistal axis, some novel factors influencing the organization of hippocampal sequences could be unveiled. This article is part of the Theo Murphy meeting issue 'Memory reactivation: replaying events past, present and future'.

Abstract
The population activity of CA1 pyramidal neurons (PNs) segregates along anatomical axes with different behaviors, suggesting that CA1 PNs are functionally subspecialized based on somatic location. In dorsal CA1, spatial encoding is biased toward CA2 (CA1c) and in deep layers of the radial axis. In contrast, nonspatial coding peaks toward subiculum (CA1a) and in superficial layers. While preferential innervation by spatial vs. nonspatial input from entorhinal cortex (EC) may contribute to this specialization, it cannot fully explain the range of in vivo responses. Differences in intrinsic properties thus may play a critical role in modulating such synaptic input differences. In this study we examined the postsynaptic integrative properties of dorsal CA1 PNs in six subpopulations along the transverse (CA1c, CA1b, CA1a) and radial (deep, superficial) axes. Our results suggest that active and passive properties of deep and superficial neurons evolve over the transverse axis to promote the functional specialization of CA1c vs. CA1a as dictated by their cortical input. We also find that CA1b is not merely an intermediate mix of its neighbors, but uniquely balances low excitability with superior input integration of its mixed input, as may be required for its proposed role in sequence encoding. Thus synaptic input and intrinsic properties combine to functionally compartmentalize CA1 processing into at least three transverse axis regions defined by the processing schemes of their composite radial axis subpopulations.NEW & NOTEWORTHY There is increasing interest in CA1 pyramidal neuron heterogeneity and the functional relevance of this diversity. We find that active and passive properties evolve over the transverse and radial axes in dorsal CA1 to promote the functional specialization of CA1c and CA1a for spatial and nonspatial memory, respectively. Furthermore, CA1b is not a mean of its neighbors, but features low excitability and superior integrative capabilities, relevant to its role in nonspatial sequence encoding.
