Gamma (40-100 Hz) oscillation in the hippocampus of the behaving rat
A Bragin, G Jando, Z Nadasdy, J Hetke, K Wise and G Buzsaki
Center for Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience, Rutgers, State University of New Jersey, Newark 07102.
The cellular generation and spatial distribution of gamma frequency (40-
100 Hz) activity was examined in the hippocampus of the awake rat. Field
potentials and unit activity were recorded by multiple site silicon probes
(5- and 16-site shanks) and wire electrode arrays. Gamma waves were highly
coherent along the long axis of the dentate hilus, but average coherence
decreased rapidly in the CA3 and CA1 directions. Analysis of short epochs
revealed large fluctuations in coherence values between the dentate and CA1
gamma waves. Current source density analysis revealed large sinks and
sources in the dentate gyrus with spatial distribution similar to the
dipoles evoked by stimulation of the perforant path. The frequency changes
of gamma and theta waves positively correlated (40-100 Hz and 5-10 Hz,
respectively). Putative interneurons in the dentate gyrus discharged at
gamma frequency and were phase-locked to the ascending part of the gamma
waves recorded from the hilus. Following bilateral lesion of the entorhinal
cortex the power and frequency of hilar gamma activity significantly
decreased or disappeared. Instead, a large amplitude but slower gamma
pattern (25-50 Hz) emerged in the CA3-CA1 network. We suggest that gamma
oscillation emerges from an interaction between intrinsic oscillatory
properties of interneurons and the network properties of the dentate gyrus.
We also hypothesize that under physiological conditions the hilar gamma
oscillation may be entrained by the entorhinal rhythm and that gamma
oscillation in the CA3-CA1 circuitry is suppressed by either the hilar
region or the entorhinal cortex.
