## Abstract We have recently shown that cholinergic effects on synaptic transmission and plasticity in the superficial (II/III) layers of the rat medial entorhinal cortex (EC) are similar, but not identical, to those in the hippocampus (Yun et al. [2000] Neuroscience 97:671β676). Because the superf

## Abstract Thetaβfrequency (4β12 Hz) electroencephalographic activity is thought to play a role in mechanisms mediating sensory and mnemonic processing in the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus, but the effects of acetylcholine on excitatory synaptic inputs to the entorhinal cortex are not well und
## Abstract The main objective of the present study was to perform an unbiased comparison of immersion vs. perfusion techniques to assess whether we could use the former to quantify synapses through electron microscopy (EM). Using the immersion technique is ideally suited for instances in which the
## Abstract Mice with knockβin of two mutations that affect beta amyloid processing and levels (2xKI) exhibit impaired spatial memory by 9β12 months of age, together with synaptic plasticity dysfunction in the hippocampus. The goal of this study was to identify changes in the molecular and structur
## Abstract We have previously shown that there are clear differences between spontaneous excitatory synaptic currents recorded in layers V and II of the rat entorhinal cortex (EC) in vitro, and have suggested that these might contribute to a more pronounced susceptibility of the deeper layer to ep
