Theta phase coding due to entorhinal cortex - hippocampal loop circuits organized by sensory signals

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) When a rat crosses the certain region of an experimental apparatus, certain neurons in the hippocampal region or the entorhinal cortex discharge. This is a place cell. The region is the place field of the place cell. When the rat enters the place field, the place cell begins firing at a later phase of the theta rhythm. The firing phase of the place cell advances with approaching the center of the place field. This is a phase coding of the place cell. We have previously proposed that an entorhinal cortex layer II model with predetermined feedback loops can encode the place information as the phase coding. In the present study, the feedback loop from the stellate cells to the stellate cells in the entorhinal cortex model was automatically retrieved by the spike timing dependent plasticity rule (STDP). The difference in the firing rate of the external input to the stellate cells led to the phase difference of spikes of the stellate cells. The phase difference of spikes between the stellate cells modified the synaptic weight using STDP. After the learning was completed, the present entorhinal cortex layer II model exhibits the phase precession.
