The trisynaptic pathway from entorhinal cortex to the hippocampus
has long been regarded as the major route of information transfer
underlying memory consolidation. Most physiological studies of this
pathway involve recording from hippocampal slices. We have used both
single- and double-label 2-deoxyglucose autoradiographic methods to
image the pattern of activation in the hippocampal formation of 14 rhesus monkeys performing cognitive tasks, varying in content (spatial
or nonspatial), process (working memory or associative memory), and
mode of response (oculomotor or manual). These studies revealed a
highly differentiated pattern of metabolic activation throughout the
rostrocaudal extent of the hippocampal formation that was common
to all behavioral conditions examined. This pattern consisted of
intense activation of the stratum lacunosum-moleculare of CA1 and the
subiculum, contrasting with barely detectable activity in CA3 and
modest activation in the dentate gyrus, which did not include its
molecular layer. These findings indicate a remarkable invariance in
hippocampal activation under conditions of varied content, varied
process, and varied mode of response and an heretofore-unappreciated preferential engagement of the direct rather than the trisynaptic pathway during performance of a wide range of behavioral tasks.
Key words:
hippocampus; trisynaptic pathway; CA3; dentate gyrus; oculomotor delayed-response task; delayed match-to-sample task; rhesus
