This research focuses on the study of agent behavior decision-making based on hippocampal cognitive functions, aiming to enhance the decision-making capabilities of agents in complex task environments by deeply exploring the crucial role of the hippocampus in learning, memory, and cognitive processes. By drawing inspiration from the biological stru...
BackgroundObesity and consumption of high-fat diets (HFD) are associated with intestinal permeabilization and increased paracellular transport of endotoxins, which can promote neuroinflammation. Inflammation can affect the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis, which controls responses to stress and downregulates the brain-derived neurotrophic ...
Here we conducted wireless electrophysiological recording of hippocampal neurons from Egyptian fruit bats in the presence of human experimenters. In flying bats, many neurons modulated their activity depending on the identity of the human at the landing target. In stationary bats, many neurons carried significant spatial information about the posit...

Morphological changes in the hippocampal, thalamic, and amygdala subfields have been suggested to form part of the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD). However, the use of conventional MRI scanners and acquisition techniques has prevented in-depth examinations at the subfield level, precluding a fine-grained understanding of these su...

Introduction: Neurogenesis in the adult brain may play an important role in memory and cognition; however, knowledge of neurogenic markers in the human brain remains limited. We compared the single-nucleus transcriptome of the hippocampus with that of other cortical regions to identify hippocampus-specific neurogenic markers. Methods: We analyzed 2...

Introduction Glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs) have been shown to have significant neurotoxic effects, affecting both the structure and function of the brain, and potentially contributing to the development of neurodegenerative disorders. Despite the known importance of glycosylation in disease progression, the glycome profile of systems exposed t...
Background and objectivesAmyloid pathology, vascular disease pathology, and pathologies affecting the medial temporal lobe are associated with cognitive trajectories in older adults. However, only limited evidence exists on how these pathologies influence cognition in the oldest old. We evaluated whether amyloid burden, white matter hyperintensity ...
Incomplete Hippocampal Inversion (IHI), sometimes called hippocampal malrotation, is an atypical anatomical pattern of the hippocampus found in about 20% of the general population. IHI can be visually assessed on coronal slices of T1 weighted MR images, using a composite score that combines four anatomical criteria. IHI has been associated with sev...
A single dose of psilocybin, a psychedelic that acutely causes distortions of space-time perception and ego dissolution, produces rapid and persistent therapeutic effects in human clinical trials1-4. In animal models, psilocybin induces neuroplasticity in cortex and hippocampus5-8. It remains unclear how human brain network changes relate to subjec...
ObjectivesIn patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE) and normal MRI, anterior temporal lobectomy sparing the hippocampus might be considered because of the risk of post-operative memory deficit. However, it is unclear whether some patients with normal MRI and non-invasive EEG and semiological pattern highly suggestive of mesial temporal ...
