Abstract
In eukaryotic cells, organelles in the secretory, lysosomal, and endocytic pathways actively exchange biological materials with each other through intracellular membrane trafficking, which is the process of transporting the cargo of proteins, lipids, and other molecules to appropriate compartments via transport vesicles or intermediates. These processes are strictly regulated by various small GTPases such as the RAS-like in rat brain (RAB) protein family, which is the largest subfamily of the RAS superfamily. Dysfunction of membrane trafficking affects tissue homeostasis and leads to a wide range of diseases, including neurological disorders and neurodegenerative diseases. Therefore, it is important to understand the physiological and pathological roles of RAB proteins in brain function. RAB35, a member of the RAB family, is an evolutionarily conserved protein in metazoans. A wide range of studies using cultured mammalian cells and model organisms have revealed that RAB35 mediates various processes such as cytokinesis, endocytic recycling, actin bundling, and cell migration. RAB35 is also involved in neurite outgrowth and turnover of synaptic vesicles. We generated brain-specific Rab35 knockout mice to study the physiological roles of RAB35 in brain development and function. These mice exhibited defects in anxiety-related behaviors and spatial memory. Strikingly, RAB35 is required for the precise positioning of pyramidal neurons during hippocampal development, and thereby for normal hippocampal lamination. In contrast, layer formation in the cerebral cortex occurred superficially, even in the absence of RAB35, suggesting a predominant role for RAB35 in hippocampal development rather than in cerebral cortex development. Recent studies have suggested an association between RAB35 and neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease. In this review, we provide an overview of the current understanding of subcellular functions of RAB35. We also provide insights into the physiological role of RAB35 in mammalian brain development and function, and discuss the involvement of RAB35 dysfunction in neurodegenerative diseases.

Jones SM, Sleiman SJ, McCann KE, Jarmusch AK, Alexander GM, Dudek SM. Prenatal exposure to the mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist spironolactone disrupts hippocampal area CA2 connectivity and alters behavior in mice. Neuropsychopharmacology 2024:10.1038/s41386-024-01971-7. [PMID: 39237618 DOI: 10.1038/s41386-024-01971-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/19/2024] [Revised: 08/07/2024] [Accepted: 08/14/2024] [Indexed: 09/07/2024]
Abstract
In the brain, the hippocampus is enriched with mineralocorticoid receptors (MR; Nr3c2), a ligand-dependent transcription factor stimulated by the stress hormone corticosterone in rodents. Recently, we discovered that MR is required for the acquisition and maintenance of many features of mouse area CA2 neurons. Notably, we observed that immunofluorescence for the vesicular glutamate transporter 2 (vGluT2), likely representing afferents from the supramammillary nucleus (SuM), was disrupted in the embryonic, but not postnatal, MR knockout mouse CA2. To test whether pharmacological perturbation of MR activity in utero similarly disrupts CA2 connectivity, we implanted slow-release pellets containing the MR antagonist spironolactone in mouse dams during mid-gestation. After confirming that at least one likely active metabolite crossed from the dams' serum into the embryonic brains, we found that spironolactone treatment caused a significant reduction of CA2 axon fluorescence intensity in the CA1 stratum oriens, where CA2 axons preferentially project, and that vGluT2 staining was significantly decreased in both CA2 and dentate gyrus in spironolactone-treated animals. We also found that spironolactone-treated animals exhibited increased reactivity to novel objects, an effect similar to what is seen with embryonic or postnatal CA2-targeted MR knockout. However, we found no difference in preference for social novelty between the treatment groups. We infer these results to suggest that persistent or more severe disruptions in MR function may be required to interfere with this type of social behavior. These findings do indicate, though, that developmental disruption in MR signaling can have persistent effects on hippocampal circuitry and behavior.

Abstract
Neurologic and neuropsychiatric disorders substantially impact the pediatric population, but there is a lack of dedicated devices for monitoring the developing brain in animal models, leading to gaps in mechanistic understanding of how brain functions emerge and their disruption in disease states. Due to the small size, fragility, and high water content of immature neural tissue, as well as the absence of a hardened skull to mechanically support rigid devices, conventional neural interface devices are poorly suited to acquire brain signals without inducing damage. Here, the authors design conformable, implantable, conducting polymer-based probes (NeuroShanks) for precise targeting in the developing mouse brain without the need for skull-attached, rigid mechanical support structures. These probes enable the acquisition of high spatiotemporal resolution neurophysiologic activity from superficial and deep brain regions across unanesthetized behavioral states without causing tissue disruption or device failure. Once implanted, probes are mechanically stable and permit precise, stable signal monitoring at the level of the local field potential and individual action potentials. These results support the translational potential of such devices for clinically indicated neurophysiologic recording in pediatric patients. Additionally, the role of organic bioelectronics as an enabling technology to address questions in developmental neuroscience is revealed.

Abstract
Memories are dynamic constructs whose properties change with time and experience. The biological mechanisms underpinning these dynamics remain elusive, particularly concerning how shifts in the composition of memory-encoding neuronal ensembles influence the evolution of a memory over time. By targeting developmentally distinct subpopulations of principal neurons, we discovered that memory encoding resulted in the concurrent establishment of multiple memory traces in the mouse hippocampus. Two of these traces were instantiated in subpopulations of early- and late-born neurons and followed distinct reactivation trajectories after encoding. The divergent recruitment of these subpopulations underpinned gradual reorganization of memory ensembles and modulated memory persistence and plasticity across multiple learning episodes. Thus, our findings reveal profound and intricate relationships between ensemble dynamics and the progression of memories over time.

Abstract
Auditory processing in mammals begins in the peripheral inner ear and extends to the auditory cortex. Sound is transduced from mechanical stimuli into electrochemical signals of hair cells, which relay auditory information via the primary auditory neurons to cochlear nuclei. Information is subsequently processed in the superior olivary complex, lateral lemniscus, and inferior colliculus and projects to the auditory cortex via the medial geniculate body in the thalamus. Recent advances have provided valuable insights into the development and functioning of auditory structures, complementing our understanding of the physiological mechanisms underlying auditory processing. This comprehensive review explores the genetic mechanisms required for auditory system development from the peripheral cochlea to the auditory cortex. We highlight transcription factors and other genes with key recurring and interacting roles in guiding auditory system development and organization. Understanding these gene regulatory networks holds promise for developing novel therapeutic strategies for hearing disorders, benefiting millions globally.

Abstract
Neurons receive correlated levels of excitation and inhibition, a feature that is important for proper brain function. However, how this relationship between excitatory and inhibitory inputs is established during the dynamic period of circuit wiring remains unexplored. Using multiple techniques, including in utero electroporation, electron microscopy, and electrophysiology, we reveal a tight correlation in the distribution of excitatory and inhibitory synapses along the dendrites of developing CA1 hippocampal neurons. This correlation was present within short dendritic stretches (<20 μm) and, surprisingly, was most pronounced during early development, sharply declining with maturity. The tight matching between excitation and inhibition was unexpected, as inhibitory synapses lacked an active zone when formed and exhibited compromised evoked release. We propose that inhibitory synapses form as a stabilizing scaffold to counterbalance growing excitation levels. This relationship diminishes over time, suggesting a critical role for a subcellular balance in early neuronal function and circuit formation.

Abstract
Pain management in neonates continues to be a challenge. Diverse therapies are available that cause loss of pain sensitivity. However, because of side effects, the search for better options remains open. Dexmedetomidine is a promising drug; it has shown high efficacy with a good safety profile in sedation and analgesia in the immature nervous system. Though dexmedetomidine is already in use for pain control in neonates (including premature neonates) and infants as an adjunct to other anesthetics, the question remains whether it affects the neuronal activity patterning that is critical for development of the immature nervous system. In this study, using the neonatal rat as a model, the pharmacodynamic effects of dexmedetomidine on the nervous and cardiorespiratory systems were studied. Our results showed that dexmedetomidine has pronounced analgesic effects in the neonatal rat pups, and also weakly modified both the immature network patterns of cortical and hippocampal activity and the physiology of sleep cycles. Though the respiration and heart rates were slightly reduced after dexmedetomidine administration, it might be considered as the preferential independent short-term therapy for pain management in the immature and developing brain.

Abstract
Embryonic neurodevelopment, particularly neural progenitor differentiation into post-mitotic neurons, has been extensively studied. While the number and composition of post-mitotic neurons remain relatively constant from birth to adulthood, the brain undergoes significant postnatal maturation marked by major property changes frequently disrupted in neural diseases. This review first summarizes recent characterizations of the functional and molecular maturation of the postnatal nervous system. We then review regulatory mechanisms controlling the precise gene expression changes crucial for the intricate sequence of maturation events, highlighting experience-dependent versus cell-intrinsic genetic timer mechanisms. Despite significant advances in understanding of the gene-environmental regulation of postnatal neuronal maturation, many aspects remain unknown. The review concludes with our perspective on exciting future research directions in the next decade.

Abstract
The representation of distinct spaces by hippocampal place cells has been linked to changes in their place fields (the locations in the environment where the place cells discharge strongly), a phenomenon that has been termed 'remapping'. Remapping has been assumed to be accompanied by the reorganization of subsecond cofiring relationships among the place cells, potentially maximizing hippocampal information coding capacity. However, several observations challenge this standard view. For example, place cells exhibit mixed selectivity, encode non-positional variables, can have multiple place fields and exhibit unreliable discharge in fixed environments. Furthermore, recent evidence suggests that, when measured at subsecond timescales, the moment-to-moment cofiring of a pair of cells in one environment is remarkably similar in another environment, despite remapping. Here, I propose that remapping is a misnomer for the changes in place fields across environments and suggest instead that internally organized manifold representations of hippocampal activity are actively registered to different environments to enable navigation, promote memory and organize knowledge.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Sleep supports systems memory consolidation through the precise temporal coordination of specific oscillatory events during slow-wave sleep, i.e. the neocortical slow oscillations (SOs), thalamic spindles, and hippocampal ripples. Beneficial effects of sleep on memory are also observed in infants, although the contributing regions, especially hippocampus and frontal cortex, are immature. Here, we examined in rats the development of these oscillatory events and their coupling during early life. METHODS EEG and hippocampal local field potentials were recorded during sleep in male rats at postnatal days (PD)26 and 32, roughly corresponding to early (1-2 years) and late (9-10 years) human childhood, and in a group of adult rats (14-18 weeks, corresponding to ~22-29 years in humans). RESULTS SO and spindle amplitudes generally increased from PD26 to PD32. In parallel, frontocortical EEG spindles increased in density and frequency, while changes in hippocampal ripples remained nonsignificant. The proportion of SOs co-occurring with spindles also increased from PD26 to PD32. Whereas parietal cortical spindles were phase-locked to the depolarizing SO-upstate already at PD26, over frontal cortex SO-spindle phase-locking emerged not until PD32. Co-occurrence of hippocampal ripples with spindles was higher during childhood than in adult rats, but significant phase-locking of ripples to the excitable spindle troughs was observed only in adult rats. CONCLUSIONS Results indicate a protracted development of synchronized thalamocortical processing specifically in frontocortical networks (i.e. frontal SO-spindle coupling). However, synchronization within thalamocortical networks generally precedes synchronization of thalamocortical with hippocampal processing as reflected by the delayed occurrence of spindle-ripple phase-coupling.

Abstract
Synaptic adhesion molecules (SAMs) are evolutionarily conserved proteins that play an important role in the form and function of neuronal synapses. Teneurins (Tenms) and latrophilins (Lphns) are well-known cell adhesion molecules that form a transsynaptic complex. Recent studies suggest that Tenm3 and Lphn2 (gene symbol Adgrl2) are involved in hippocampal circuit assembly via their topographical expression. However, it is not known whether other teneurins and latrophilins display similar topographically restricted expression patterns during embryonic and postnatal development. Here, we reveal the cartography of all teneurin (Tenm1-4) and latrophilin (Lphn1-3 [Adgrl1-3]) paralog expression in the mouse hippocampus across prenatal and postnatal development as monitored by large-scale single-molecule RNA in situ hybridization mapping. Our results identify a striking heterogeneity in teneurin and latrophilin expression along the spatiotemporal axis of the hippocampus. Tenm2 and Tenm4 expression levels peak at the neonatal stage when compared to Tenm1 and Tenm3, while Tenm1 expression is restricted to the postnatal pyramidal cell layer. Tenm4 expression in the dentate gyrus (DG) exhibits an opposing topographical expression pattern in the embryonic and neonatal hippocampus. Our findings were validated by analyses of multiple RNA-seq datasets at bulk, single-cell, and spatial levels. Thus, our study presents a comprehensive spatiotemporal map of Tenm and Lphn expression in the hippocampus, showcasing their diverse expression patterns across developmental stages in distinct spatial axes.

Abstract
Early Sharp Waves (eSPWs) are the earliest pattern of network activity in the developing hippocampus of neonatal rodents. eSPWs were originally considered to be an immature prototype of adult SPWs, which are spontaneous top-down hippocampal events that are self-generated in the hippocampal circuitry. However, recent studies have shifted this paradigm to a bottom-up model of eSPW genesis, in which eSPWs are primarily driven by the inputs from the layers 2/3 of the medial entorhinal cortex (MEC). A hallmark of the adult SPWs is the relay of information from the CA1 hippocampus to target structures, including deep layers of the EC. Whether and how deep layers of the MEC are activated during eSPWs in the neonates remains elusive. In this study, we investigated activity in layer 5 of the MEC of neonatal rat pups during eSPWs using silicone probe recordings from the MEC and CA1 hippocampus. We found that neurons in deep and superficial layers of the MEC fire synchronously during MEC sharp potentials, and that neuronal firing in both superficial and deep layers of the MEC precedes the activation of CA1 neurons during eSPWs. Thus, the sequence of activation of CA1 hippocampal neurons and deep EC neurons during sharp waves reverses during development, from a lead of deep EC neurons during eSPWs in neonates to a lead of CA1 neurons during adult SPWs. These findings suggest another important difference in the generative mechanisms and possible functional roles of eSPWs compared to adult SPWs.

Abstract
Dravet syndrome is a severe epileptic encephalopathy, characterized by drug-resistant epilepsy, severe cognitive and behavioural deficits, with increased risk of sudden unexpected death (SUDEP). It is caused by haploinsufficiency of SCN1A gene encoding for the α-subunit of the voltage-gated sodium channel Nav1.1. Therapeutic approaches aiming to upregulate the healthy copy of SCN1A gene to restore its normal expression levels are being developed. However, whether Scn1a gene function is required only during a specific developmental time-window or, alternatively, if its physiological expression is necessary in adulthood is untested up to now. We induced Scn1a gene haploinsufficiency at two ages spanning postnatal brain development (P30 and P60) and compared the phenotypes of those mice to Scn1a perinatally induced mice (P2), recapitulating all deficits of Dravet mice. Induction of heterozygous Nav1.1 mutation at P30 and P60 elicited susceptibility to the development of both spontaneous and hyperthermia-induced seizures and SUDEP rates comparable to P2-induced mice, with symptom onset accompanied by the characteristic GABAergic interneuron dysfunction. Finally, delayed Scn1a haploinsufficiency induction provoked hyperactivity, anxiety and social attitude impairment at levels comparable to age matched P2-induced mice, while it was associated with a better cognitive performance, with P60-induced mice behaving like the control group. Our data show that maintenance of physiological levels of Nav1.1 during brain development is not sufficient to prevent Dravet symptoms and that long-lasting restoration of Scn1a gene expression would be required to grant optimal clinical benefit in patients with Dravet syndrome.

Abstract
Human episodic memory is not functionally evident until about 2 years of age and continues to develop into the school years. Behavioral studies have elucidated this developmental timeline and its constituent processes. In tandem, lesion and neurophysiological studies in non-human primates and rodents have identified key neural substrates and circuit mechanisms that may underlie episodic memory development. Despite this progress, collaborative efforts between psychologists and neuroscientists remain limited, hindering progress. Here, we seek to bridge human and non-human episodic memory development research by offering a comparative review of studies using humans, non-human primates, and rodents. We highlight critical theoretical and methodological issues that limit cross-fertilization and propose a common research framework, adaptable to different species, that may facilitate cross-species research endeavors.

Abstract
Gene regulation in the hippocampus is fundamental for its development, synaptic plasticity, memory formation, and adaptability. Comparisons of gene expression among different developmental stages, distinct cell types, and specific experimental conditions have identified differentially expressed genes contributing to the organization and functionality of hippocampal circuits. The NEIL3 DNA glycosylase, one of the DNA repair enzymes, plays an important role in hippocampal maturation and neuron functionality by shaping transcription. While differential gene expression (DGE) analysis has identified key genes involved, broader gene expression patterns crucial for high-order hippocampal functions remain uncharted. By utilizing the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), we mapped gene expression networks in immature (p8-neonatal) and mature (3 m-adult) hippocampal circuits in wild-type and NEIL3-deficient mice. Our study unveiled intricate gene network structures underlying hippocampal maturation, delineated modules of co-expressed genes, and pinpointed highly interconnected hub genes specific to the maturity of hippocampal subregions. We investigated variations within distinct gene network modules following NEIL3 depletion, uncovering NEIL3-targeted hub genes that influence module connectivity and specificity. By integrating WGCNA with DGE, we delve deeper into the NEIL3-dependent molecular intricacies of hippocampal maturation. This study provides a comprehensive systems-level analysis for assessing the potential correlation between gene connectivity and functional connectivity within the hippocampal network, thus shaping hippocampal function throughout development.

Abstract
Neuronal ensembles, defined as groups of neurons displaying recurring patterns of coordinated activity, represent an intermediate functional level between individual neurons and brain areas. Novel methods to measure and optically manipulate the activity of neuronal populations have provided evidence of ensembles in the neocortex and hippocampus. Ensembles can be activated intrinsically or in response to sensory stimuli and play a causal role in perception and behavior. Here we review ensemble phenomenology, developmental origin, biophysical and synaptic mechanisms, and potential functional roles across different brain areas and species, including humans. As modular units of neural circuits, ensembles could provide a mechanistic underpinning of fundamental brain processes, including neural coding, motor planning, decision-making, learning, and adaptability.

Abstract
Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) neurons are densely distributed in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), which plays a crucial role in integrating and processing emotional and cognitive inputs from other brain regions. Therefore, it is important to know the neural afferent patterns of mPFCCRH neurons, which are still unclear. Here, we utilized a rabies virus-based monosynaptic retrograde tracing system to map the presynaptic afferents of the mPFCCRH neurons throughout the entire brain. The results show that the mPFCCRH neurons receive inputs from three main groups of brain regions: (1) the cortex, primarily the orbital cortex, somatomotor areas, and anterior cingulate cortex; (2) the thalamus, primarily the anteromedial nucleus, mediodorsal thalamic nucleus, and central medial thalamic nucleus; and (3) other brain regions, primarily the basolateral amygdala, hippocampus, and dorsal raphe nucleus. Taken together, our results are valuable for further investigations into the roles of the mPFCCRH neurons in normal and neurological disease states. These investigations can shed light on various aspects such as cognitive processing, emotional modulation, motivation, sociability, and pain.

Abstract
Hippocampal pyramidal cells possess elaborate dendritic arbors with distinct domains that are targeted with input-specific synaptic sites. This synaptic arrangement is facilitated by synaptic cell-adhesion molecules that act as recognition elements to connect presynaptic and postsynaptic neurons. In this study, we investigate the organization of the synaptic recognition molecule latrophilin-2 at the surface of pyramidal neurons classified by spatial positioning and action potential firing patterns. Surveying two hippocampal neurons that highly express latrophilin-2, late-bursting CA1 pyramidal cells and early-bursting subiculum pyramidal cells, we found the molecule to be differentially positioned on their respective dendritic compartments. Investigating this latrophilin-2 positioning at the synaptic level, we found that the molecule is not present within either the pre- or postsynaptic terminal but rather is tightly coupled to synapses at a perisynaptic location. Together these findings indicate that hippocampal latrophilin-2 distribution patterning is cell-type specific, and requires multiple postsynaptic neurons for its synaptic localization.

Abstract
Sharp wave-ripples (SPW-Rs) are a hippocampal network phenomenon critical for memory consolidation and planning. SPW-Rs have been extensively studied in the adult brain, yet their developmental trajectory is poorly understood. While SPWs have been recorded in rodents shortly after birth, the time point and mechanisms of ripple emergence are still unclear. Here, we combine in vivo electrophysiology with optogenetics and chemogenetics in 4 to 12-day-old mice to address this knowledge gap. We show that ripples are robustly detected and induced by light stimulation of channelrhodopsin-2-transfected CA1 pyramidal neurons only from postnatal day 10 onwards. Leveraging a spiking neural network model, we mechanistically link the maturation of inhibition and ripple emergence. We corroborate these findings by reducing ripple rate upon chemogenetic silencing of CA1 interneurons. Finally, we show that early SPW-Rs elicit a more robust prefrontal cortex response than SPWs lacking ripples. Thus, development of inhibition promotes ripples emergence.

Abstract
Opioid receptors within the CNS regulate pain sensation and mood and are key targets for drugs of abuse. Within the adult rodent hippocampus (HPC), μ-opioid receptor agonists suppress inhibitory parvalbumin-expressing interneurons (PV-INs), thus disinhibiting the circuit. However, it is uncertain if this disinhibitory motif is conserved in other cortical regions, species, or across development. We observed that PV-IN mediated inhibition is robustly suppressed by opioids in HPC but not neocortex in mice and nonhuman primates, with spontaneous inhibitory tone in resected human tissue also following a consistent dichotomy. This hippocampal disinhibitory motif was established in early development when immature PV-INs and opioids already influence primordial network rhythmogenesis. Acute opioid-mediated modulation was partially occluded with morphine pretreatment, with implications for the effects of opioids on hippocampal network activity during circuit maturation as well as learning and memory. Together, these findings demonstrate that PV-INs exhibit a divergence in opioid sensitivity across brain regions that is remarkably conserved across evolution and highlights the underappreciated role of opioids acting through immature PV-INs in shaping hippocampal development.

Abstract
Brain development is highly dynamic and asynchronous, marked by the sequential maturation of functional circuits across the brain. The timing and mechanisms driving circuit maturation remain elusive due to an inability to identify and map maturing neuronal populations. Here we create DevATLAS (Developmental Activation Timing-based Longitudinal Acquisition System) to overcome this obstacle. We develop whole-brain mapping methods to construct the first longitudinal, spatiotemporal map of circuit maturation in early postnatal mouse brains. Moreover, we uncover dramatic impairments within the deep cortical layers in a neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) model, demonstrating the utility of this resource to pinpoint when and where circuit maturation is disrupted. Using DevATLAS, we reveal that early experiences accelerate the development of hippocampus-dependent learning by increasing the synaptically mature granule cell population in the dentate gyrus. Finally, DevATLAS enables the discovery of molecular mechanisms driving activity-dependent circuit maturation.

Xie Z, Dong S, Zhang Y, Yuan Y. Transcranial ultrasound stimulation at the peak-phase of theta-cycles in the hippocampus improve memory performance. Neuroimage 2023; 283:120423. [PMID: 37884166 DOI: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2023.120423] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2023] [Revised: 10/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/23/2023] [Indexed: 10/28/2023] Open
Abstract
The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of closed-loop transcranial ultrasound stimulation (closed-loop TUS) as a non-invasive, high temporal-spatial resolution method for modulating brain function to enhance memory. For this purpose, we applied closed-loop TUS to the CA1 region of the rat hippocampus for 7 consecutive days at different phases of theta cycles. Following the intervention, we evaluated memory performance through behavioral testing and recorded the neural activity. Our results indicated that closed-loop TUS applied at the peak phase of theta cycles significantly improves the memory performance in rats, as evidenced by behavioral testing. Furthermore, we observed that closed-loop TUS modifies the power and cross-frequency coupling strength of local field potentials (LFPs) during memory task, as well as modulates neuronal activity patterns and synaptic transmission, depending on phase of stimulation relative to theta rhythm. We demonstrated that closed-loop TUS can modulate neural activity and memory performance in a phase-dependent manner. Specifically, we observed that effectiveness of closed-loop TUS in regulating neural activity and memory is dependent on the timing of stimulation in relation to different theta phase. The findings implied that closed-loop TUS may have the capability to alter neural activity and memory performance in a phase-sensitive manner, and suggested that the efficacy of closed-loop TUS in modifying neural activity and memory was contingent on timing of stimulation with respect to the theta rhythm. Moreover, the improvement in memory performance after closed-loop TUS was found to be persistent.

Abstract
The connectivity of the hippocampus is essential to its functions. To gain a whole system view of intrahippocampal connectivity, ex vivo mesoscale (100 μm isotropic resolution) multi-shell diffusion MRI (11.7T) and tractography were performed on entire post-mortem human right hippocampi. Volumetric measurements indicated that the head region was largest followed by the body and tail regions. A unique anatomical organization in the head region reflected a complex organization of the granule cell layer (GCL) of the dentate gyrus. Tractography revealed the volumetric distribution of the perforant path, including both the tri-synaptic and temporoammonic pathways, as well as other well-established canonical connections, such as Schaffer collaterals. Visualization of the perforant path provided a means to verify the borders between the pro-subiculum and CA1, as well as between CA1/CA2. A specific angularity of different layers of fibers in the alveus was evident across the whole sample and allowed a separation of afferent and efferent connections based on their origin (i.e. entorhinal cortex) or destination (i.e. fimbria) using a cluster analysis of streamlines. Non-canonical translamellar connections running along the anterior-posterior axis were also discerned in the hilus. In line with "dentations" of the GCL, mossy fibers were bunching together in the sagittal plane revealing a unique lamellar organization and connections between these. In the head region, mossy fibers projected to the origin of the fimbria, which was distinct from the body and tail region. Mesoscale tractography provides an unprecedented systems view of intrahippocampal connections that underpin cognitive and emotional processing.

Abstract
The assembly of the mammalian brain is orchestrated by temporally coordinated waves of gene expression. Post-transcriptional regulation by microRNAs (miRNAs) is a key aspect of this program. Indeed, deletion of neuron-enriched miRNAs induces strong developmental phenotypes, and miRNA levels are altered in patients with neurodevelopmental disorders. However, the mechanisms used by miRNAs to instruct brain development remain largely unexplored. Here, we identified miR-218 as a critical regulator of hippocampal assembly. MiR-218 is highly expressed in the hippocampus and enriched in both excitatory principal neurons (PNs) and GABAergic inhibitory interneurons (INs). Early life inhibition of miR-218 results in an adult brain with a predisposition to seizures. Changes in gene expression in the absence of miR-218 suggest that network assembly is impaired. Indeed, we find that miR-218 inhibition results in the disruption of early depolarizing GABAergic signaling, structural defects in dendritic spines, and altered intrinsic membrane excitability. Conditional knockout of Mir218-2 in INs, but not PNs, is sufficient to recapitulate long-term instability. Finally, de-repressing Kif21b and Syt13, two miR-218 targets, phenocopies the effects on early synchronous network activity induced by miR-218 inhibition. Taken together, the data suggest that miR-218 orchestrates formative events in PNs and INs to produce stable networks.

Abstract
The mechanism underlying long-term cognitive impairment caused by neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain injury (HIBI) remains unclear. Autophagy is a closely related mechanism and may play a role in this process. We aimed to investigate the role of lysosomal transmembrane protein 175 (TMEM175) in the autophagy-lysosome pathway in neonatal rats with HIBI. A neonatal rat model of HIBI was established, hypoxia was induced, followed by left common carotid artery ligation. Expression levels of TMEM175 and the corresponding proteins involved in autophagy flux and the endolysosomal system fusion process were measured. Rats were administered TMEM175 plasmid via intracerebroventricular injection to induce overexpression. Brain damage and cognitive function were then assessed. TMEM175 was downregulated in the hippocampal tissue, and the autophagy-lysosome pathway was impaired following HIBI in neonatal rats. Overexpression of TMEM175 significantly mitigated neuronal injury and improved long-term cognitive and memory function in neonatal rats with HIBI. We found that improvement in the autophagy-lysosome pathway and endolysosomal system homeostasis, which are TMEM175 related, occurred via regulation of lysosomal membrane dynamic fusion. TMEM175 plays a critical role in maintaining the autophagy-lysosome pathway and endolysosomal homeostasis, contributing to the amelioration of neuronal injury and impaired long-term cognitive function following neonatal HIBI.

Abstract
Oscillations in neural activity are widespread throughout the brain and can be observed at the population level through the local field potential. These rhythmic patterns are associated with cycles of excitability and are thought to coordinate networks of neurons, in turn facilitating effective communication both within local circuits and across brain regions. In the hippocampus, theta rhythms (4-12 Hz) could contribute to several key physiological mechanisms including long-range synchrony, plasticity, and at the behavioral scale, support memory encoding and retrieval. While neurons in the hippocampus appear to be temporally coordinated by theta oscillations, they also tend to fire in sequences that are developmentally preconfigured. Although loss of theta rhythmicity impairs memory, these sequences of spatiotemporal representations persist in conditions of altered hippocampal oscillations. The focus of this review is to disentangle the relative contribution of hippocampal oscillations from single-neuron activity in learning and memory. We first review cellular, anatomical, and physiological mechanisms underlying the generation and maintenance of hippocampal rhythms and how they contribute to memory function. We propose candidate hypotheses for how septohippocampal oscillations could support memory function while not contributing directly to hippocampal sequences. In particular, we explore how theta rhythms could coordinate the integration of upstream signals in the hippocampus to form future decisions, the relevance of such integration to downstream regions, as well as setting the stage for behavioral timescale synaptic plasticity. Finally, we leverage stimulation-based treatment in Alzheimer's disease conditions as an opportunity to assess the sufficiency of hippocampal oscillations for memory function.

Abstract
We explored the potential for cFOS expression as a marker of functional development of "resting-state" waking activity in the extended network of the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex. We examined sleeping and awake mice at (P)ostnatal days 5, 9, 13, and 17 as well as in adulthood. We find that cFOS expression is state-dependent even at 5 days old, with reliable staining occurring only in the awake mice. Even during waking, cFOS expression was rare and weak at P5. The septal nuclei, entorhinal cortex layer (L)2, and anterodorsal thalamus were exceptional in that they had robust cFOS expression at P5 that was similar to or greater than in adulthood. Significant P5 expression was also observed in the dentate gyrus, entorhinal cortex L6, postsubiculum L4-6, ventral subiculum, supramammillary nucleus, and posterior hypothalamic nucleus. The expression in these regions grew stronger with age, and the expression in new regions was added progressively at P9 and P13 by which point the overall expression pattern in many regions was qualitatively similar to the adult. Six regions-CA1, dorsal subiculum, postsubiculum L2-3, reuniens nucleus, and perirhinal and postrhinal cortices-were very late developing, mostly achieving adult levels only after P17. Our findings support a number of developmental principles. First, early spontaneous activity patterns induced by muscle twitches during sleep do not induce robust cFOS expression in the extended hippocampal network. Second, the development of cFOS expression follows the progressive activation along the trisynaptic circuit, rather than birth date or cellular maturation. Third, we reveal components of the egocentric head-direction and theta-rhythm circuits as the earliest cFOS active circuits in the forebrain. Our results suggest that cFOS staining may provide a reliable and sensitive biomarker for hippocampal formation activity development, particularly in regard to the attainment of a normal waking state and synchronizing rhythms such as theta and gamma.

Abstract
In mammals, the activity of neurons in the entorhinal-hippocampal network is modulated by the animal's position and its movement through space. At multiple stages of this distributed circuit, distinct populations of neurons can represent a rich repertoire of navigation-related variables like the animal's location, the speed and direction of its movements, or the presence of borders and objects. Working together, spatially tuned neurons give rise to an internal representation of space, a cognitive map that supports an animal's ability to navigate the world and to encode and consolidate memories from experience. The mechanisms by which, during development, the brain acquires the ability to create an internal representation of space are just beginning to be elucidated. In this review, we examine recent work that has begun to investigate the ontogeny of circuitry, firing patterns, and computations underpinning the representation of space in the mammalian brain.

Abstract
Hormones are important regulators of key processes during fetal brain development. Thus, the developing brain is vulnerable to the action of chemicals that can interfere with endocrine signals. Epidemiological studies have pointed toward sexually dimorphic associations between neurodevelopmental outcomes, such as cognitive abilities, in children and prenatal exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs). This points toward disruption of sex steroid signaling in the development of neural structures underlying cognitive functions, such as the hippocampus, an essential mediator of learning and memory processes. Indeed, during development, the hippocampus is subjected to the organizational effects of estrogens and androgens, which influence hippocampal cell proliferation, differentiation, dendritic growth, and synaptogenesis in the hippocampal fields of Cornu Ammonis and the dentate gyrus. These early organizational effects correlate with a sexual dimorphism in spatial cognition and are subject to exogenous chemical perturbations. This review summarizes the current knowledge about the organizational effects of estrogens and androgens on the developing hippocampus and the evidence for hippocampal-dependent learning and memory perturbations induced by developmental exposure to EDCs. We conclude that, while it is clear that sex hormone signaling plays a significant role during hippocampal development, a complete picture at the molecular and cellular levels would be needed to establish causative links between the endocrine modes of action exerted by EDCs and the adverse outcomes these chemicals can induce at the organism level.

Abstract
Over the last decade KCNQ2 channels have arisen as fundamental and indispensable regulators of neonatal brain excitability, with KCNQ2 loss-of-function pathogenic variants being increasingly identified in patients with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. However, the mechanisms by which KCNQ2 loss-of-function variants lead to network dysfunction are not fully known. An important remaining knowledge gap is whether loss of KCNQ2 function alters GABAergic interneuron activity early in development. To address this question, we applied mesoscale calcium imaging ex vivo in postnatal day 4-7 mice lacking KCNQ2 channels in interneurons (Vgat-ires-cre;Kcnq2f/f;GCamp5). In the presence of elevated extracellular potassium concentrations, ablation of KCNQ2 channels from GABAergic cells increased the interneuron population activity in the hippocampal formation and regions of the neocortex. We found that this increased population activity depends on fast synaptic transmission, with excitatory transmission promoting the activity and GABAergic transmission curtailing it. Together, our data show that loss of function of KCNQ2 channels from interneurons increases the network excitability of the immature GABAergic circuits, revealing a new function of KCNQ2 channels in interneuron physiology in the developing brain.

Abstract
The developing entorhinal-hippocampal system is embedded within a large-scale bottom-up network, where spontaneous myoclonic movements, presumably via somatosensory feedback, trigger hippocampal early sharp waves (eSPWs). The hypothesis, that somatosensory feedback links myoclonic movements with eSPWs, implies that direct somatosensory stimulation should also be capable of evoking eSPWs. In this study, we examined hippocampal responses to electrical stimulation of the somatosensory periphery in urethane-anesthetized, immobilized neonatal rat pups using silicone probe recordings. We found that somatosensory stimulation in ~33% of the trials evoked local field potential (LFP) and multiple unit activity (MUA) responses identical to spontaneous eSPWs. The somatosensory-evoked eSPWs were delayed from the stimulus, on average, by 188 ms. Both spontaneous and somatosensory-evoked eSPWs (i) had similar amplitude of ~0.5 mV and half-duration of ~40 ms, (ii) had similar current-source density (CSD) profiles, with current sinks in CA1 strata radiatum, lacunosum-moleculare and DG molecular layer and (iii) were associated with MUA increase in CA1 and DG. Our results indicate that eSPWs can be triggered by direct somatosensory stimulations and support the hypothesis that sensory feedback from movements is involved in the association of eSPWs with myoclonic movements in neonatal rats.

Abstract
The ability to form precise, episodic memories develops with age, with young children only able to form gist-like memories that lack precision. The cellular and molecular events in the developing hippocampus that underlie the emergence of precise, episodic-like memory are unclear. In mice, the absence of a competitive neuronal engram allocation process in the immature hippocampus precluded the formation of sparse engrams and precise memories until the fourth postnatal week, when inhibitory circuits in the hippocampus mature. This age-dependent shift in precision of episodic-like memories involved the functional maturation of parvalbumin-expressing interneurons in subfield CA1 through assembly of extracellular perineuronal nets, which is necessary and sufficient for the onset of competitive neuronal allocation, sparse engram formation, and memory precision.

Abstract
The hippocampus is a multi-stage neural circuit that is critical for memory formation. Its distinct anatomy has long inspired theories that rely on local interactions between neurons within each subregion in order to perform serial operations important for memory encoding and storage. These local computations have received less attention in CA1 area, the primary output node of the hippocampus, where excitatory neurons are thought to be only very sparsely interconnected. However, recent findings have demonstrated the power of local circuitry in CA1, with evidence for strong functional interactions among excitatory neurons, regulation by diverse inhibitory microcircuits, and novel plasticity rules that can profoundly reshape the hippocampal ensemble code. Here we review how these properties expand the dynamical repertoire of CA1 beyond the confines of feedforward processing, and what implications they have for hippocampo-cortical functions in memory formation.

Abstract
Synchronized activity, a hallmark of hippocampal network dynamics, appears early during development. Whether extrinsic inputs drive such activity remains unknown. In this issue of Neuron, Leprince et al.1 show that synchronized activity, while modulated by both cortical and thalamic inputs ex vivo, depends solely on cortical inputs in vivo.

Abstract
The adult CA1 region of the hippocampus produces coordinated neuronal dynamics with minimal reliance on its extrinsic inputs. By contrast, neonatal CA1 is tightly linked to externally generated sensorimotor activity, but the circuit mechanisms underlying early synchronous activity in CA1 remain unclear. Here, using a combination of in vivo and ex vivo circuit mapping, calcium imaging, and electrophysiological recordings in mouse pups, we show that early dynamics in the ventro-intermediate CA1 are under the mixed influence of entorhinal (EC) and thalamic (VMT) inputs. Both VMT and EC can drive internally generated synchronous events ex vivo. However, movement-related population bursts detected in vivo are exclusively driven by the EC. These differential effects on synchrony reflect the different intrahippocampal targets of these inputs. Hence, cortical and subcortical pathways act differently on the neonatal CA1, implying distinct contributions to the development of the hippocampal microcircuit and related cognitive maps.

Abstract
The incorporation of new information into the hippocampal network is likely to be constrained by its innate architecture and internally generated activity patterns. However, the origin, organization and consequences of such patterns remain poorly understood. In the present study we show that hippocampal network dynamics are affected by sequential neurogenesis. We birthdated CA1 pyramidal neurons with in utero electroporation over 4 embryonic days, encompassing the peak of hippocampal neurogenesis, and compared their functional features in freely moving adult mice. Neurons of the same birthdate displayed distinct connectivity, coactivity across brain states and assembly dynamics. Same-birthdate neurons exhibited overlapping spatial representations, which were maintained across different environments. Overall, the wiring and functional features of CA1 pyramidal neurons reflected a combination of birthdate and the rate of neurogenesis. These observations demonstrate that sequential neurogenesis during embryonic development shapes the preconfigured forms of adult network dynamics.

Abstract
Cell-attached current-clamp (CA/CC) recordings have been proposed to measure resting membrane potential and synaptic/agonist responses in neurons without disrupting the cell membrane, thus avoiding the intracellular dialysis that occurs in conventional whole-cell recordings (WC). However, the accuracy of CA/CC recordings in neurons has not been directly assessed. Here, we used concomitant CA and WC current clamp recordings from cortical neurons in brain slices. Resting membrane potential values and slow voltage shifts showed variability and were typically attenuated during CA/CC recordings by ~10–20% relative to WC values. Fast signals were slowed down and their amplitude was greatly reduced: synaptic potentials by nearly 2-fold, and action potentials by nearly 10-fold in CA/CC mode compared to WC. The polarity of GABAergic postsynaptic responses in CA/CC mode matched the responses in WC, and depolarising GABAergic potentials were predominantly observed during CA/CC recordings of intact neonatal CA3 hippocampal pyramidal neurons. Similarly, CA/CC recordings reliably detected neuronal depolarization and excitation during network-induced giant depolarizing potentials in the neonatal CA3 hippocampus, and revealed variable changes, from depolarization to hyperpolarization, in CA1 pyramidal cells during sharp wave ripples in the adult hippocampus. Thus, CA/CC recordings are suitable for assessing membrane potential but signal distortion, probably caused by leakage via the seal contact and RC filtering should be considered.

Abstract
Early electrophysiological brain oscillations recorded in preterm babies and newborn rodents are initially mostly driven by bottom-up sensorimotor activity and only later can detach from external inputs. This is a hallmark of most developing brain areas, including the hippocampus, which, in the adult brain, functions in integrating external inputs onto internal dynamics. Such developmental disengagement from external inputs is likely a fundamental step for the proper development of cognitive internal models. Despite its importance, the developmental timeline and circuit basis for this disengagement remain unknown. To address this issue, we have investigated the daily evolution of CA1 dynamics and underlying circuits during the first two postnatal weeks of mouse development using two-photon calcium imaging in non-anesthetized pups. We show that the first postnatal week ends with an abrupt shift in the representation of self-motion in CA1. Indeed, most CA1 pyramidal cells switch from activated to inhibited by self-generated movements at the end of the first postnatal week, whereas the majority of GABAergic neurons remain positively modulated throughout this period. This rapid switch occurs within 2 days and follows the rapid anatomical and functional surge of local somatic GABAergic innervation. The observed change in dynamics is consistent with a two-population model undergoing a strengthening of inhibition. We propose that this abrupt developmental transition inaugurates the emergence of internal hippocampal dynamics.

Early Developmental PMCA2b Expression Protects From Ketamine-Induced Apoptosis and GABA Impairments in Differentiating Hippocampal Progenitor Cells. Front Cell Neurosci 2022; 16:890827.

Abstract
PMCA2 is not expressed until the late embryonic state when the control of subtle Ca2+ fluxes becomes important for neuronal specialization. During this period, immature neurons are especially vulnerable to degenerative insults induced by the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor blocker, ketamine. As H19-7 hippocampal progenitor cells isolated from E17 do not express the PMCA2 isoform, they constitute a valuable model for studying its role in neuronal development. In this study, we demonstrated that heterologous expression of PMCA2b enhanced the differentiation of H19-7 cells and protected from ketamine-induced death. PMCA2b did not affect resting [Ca2+]c in the presence or absence of ketamine and had no effect on the rate of Ca2+ clearance following membrane depolarization in the presence of the drug. The upregulation of endogenous PMCA1 demonstrated in response to PMCA2b expression as well as ketamine-induced PMCA4 depletion were indifferent to the rate of Ca2+ clearance in the presence of ketamine. Yet, co-expression of PMCA4b and PMCA2b was able to partially restore Ca2+ extrusion diminished by ketamine. The profiling of NMDA receptor expression showed upregulation of the NMDAR1 subunit in PMCA2b-expressing cells and increased co-immunoprecipitation of both proteins following ketamine treatment. Further microarray screening demonstrated a significant influence of PMCA2b on GABA signaling in differentiating progenitor cells, manifested by the unique regulation of several genes key to the GABAergic transmission. The overall activity of glutamate decarboxylase remained unchanged, but Ca2+-induced GABA release was inhibited in the presence of ketamine. Interestingly, PMCA2b expression was able to reverse this effect. The mechanism of GABA secretion normalization in the presence of ketamine may involve PMCA2b-mediated inhibition of GABA transaminase, thus shifting GABA utilization from energetic purposes to neurosecretion. In this study, we show for the first time that developmentally controlled PMCA expression may dictate the pattern of differentiation of hippocampal progenitor cells. Moreover, the appearance of PMCA2 early in development has long-standing consequences for GABA metabolism with yet an unpredictable influence on GABAergic neurotransmission during later stages of brain maturation. In contrast, the presence of PMCA2b seems to be protective for differentiating progenitor cells from ketamine-induced apoptotic death.

Abstract
Glutamate is the most abundant excitatory amino acid in the central nervous system. Neurons using glutamate as a neurotransmitter can be characterised by vesicular glutamate transporters (VGLUTs). Among the three subtypes, VGLUT3 is unique, co-localising with other "classical" neurotransmitters, such as the inhibitory GABA. Glutamate, manipulated by VGLUT3, can modulate the packaging as well as the release of other neurotransmitters and serve as a retrograde signal through its release from the somata and dendrites. Its contribution to sensory processes (including seeing, hearing, and mechanosensation) is well characterised. However, its involvement in learning and memory can only be assumed based on its prominent hippocampal presence. Although VGLUT3-expressing neurons are detectable in the hippocampus, most of the hippocampal VGLUT3 positivity can be found on nerve terminals, presumably coming from the median raphe. This hippocampal glutamatergic network plays a pivotal role in several important processes (e.g., learning and memory, emotions, epilepsy, cardiovascular regulation). Indirect information from anatomical studies and KO mice strains suggests the contribution of local VGLUT3-positive hippocampal neurons as well as afferentations in these events. However, further studies making use of more specific tools (e.g., Cre-mice, opto- and chemogenetics) are needed to confirm these assumptions.

Abstract
Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) is a group of psychological, physical, and behavioral symptoms that recur with the menstrual cycle, usually occurring a few days before menstruation and ceasing with the onset of menstruation. Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a severe form of PMS that has been included in a subcategory of depression in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V) according to the latest diagnostic criteria. Patients usually present with mild to moderate emotional and physical symptoms that affect their routine work, social activities, and family lives. The pathogenesis of PMDD remains unclear, and some researchers believe that it is related to fluctuations in ovarian hormone levels. However, the details of the interrelationships and regulating effects between ovarian hormones, symptoms, and the brain need to be more comprehensively determined. Recent studies have revealed some novel findings on PMS and PMDD based on brain morphology, function, and metabolism. Additionally, multiple studies have suggested that PMS and PMDD are closely related to brain structural and functional variations in certain core temporal lobe regions, such as the amygdala and hippocampus. We summarized neuroimaging studies of PMS and PMDD related to the temporal lobe by retrospectively reviewing relevant literature over the past decade. This review contributes to further clarifying the significant role of the temporal lobe in PMS and PMDD and understanding the neurochemical links between hormones, symptoms, and the brain.
