During slow wave sleep (SWS), traces of neuronal activity patterns
from preceding behavior can be observed in rat hippocampus and
neocortex. The spontaneous reactivation of these patterns is manifested
as the reinstatement of the distribution of pairwise firing-rate
correlations within a population of simultaneously recorded neurons.
The effects of behavioral state [quiet wakefulness, SWS, and rapid eye
movement (REM)], interactions between two successive spatial
experiences, and global modulation during 200 Hz
electroencephalographic (EEG) "ripples" on pattern reinstatement
were studied in CA1 pyramidal cell population recordings. Pairwise
firing-rate correlations during often repeated experiences accounted
for a significant proportion of the variance in these interactions in
subsequent SWS or quiet wakefulness and, to a lesser degree, during SWS
before the experience on a given day. The latter effect was absent for novel experiences, suggesting that a persistent memory trace develops with experience. Pattern reinstatement was strongest during sharp wave-ripple oscillations, suggesting that these events may reflect system convergence onto attractor states corresponding to previous experiences. When two different experiences occurred in succession, the
statistically independent effects of both were evident in subsequent
SWS. Thus, the patterns of neural activity reemerge spontaneously, and
in an interleaved manner, and do not necessarily reflect persistence of
an active memory (i.e., reverberation). Firing-rate correlations during
REM sleep were not related to the preceding familiar experience,
possibly as a consequence of trace decay during the intervening SWS.
REM episodes also did not detectably influence the correlation
structure in subsequent SWS, suggesting a lack of strengthening of
memory traces during REM sleep, at least in the case of familiar experiences.
Key words:
hippocampus; memory consolidation; sleep; synaptic
plasticity; REM; neural ensembles
