The hippocampal theta rhythm plays important roles in information processing; however, the mechanisms of its generation are not well understood. We developed a data-driven, supercomputer-based, full-scale (1:1) model of the rodent CA1 area and studied its interneurons during theta oscillations. Theta rhythm with phase-locked gamma oscillations and phase-preferential discharges of distinct interneuronal types spontaneously emerged from the isolated CA1 circuit without rhythmic inputs. Perturbation experiments identified parvalbumin-expressing interneurons and neurogliaform cells, as well as interneuronal diversity itself, as important factors in theta generation. These simulations reveal new insights into the spatiotemporal organization of the CA1 circuit during theta oscillations.

Background: Aging is associated with disruptions in non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep and memory decline. Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) increases with age and is associated with clinical sleep disturbance, but little is known about its relationship with local expression of NREM sleep. Here, we explore associations between CSVD burden, memory, and local electroencephalography (EEG) measures during NREM sleep in older adults.

Background: The preclinical stage of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has gained attention for the window of opportunity it opens for early detection and intervention. Given the high invasiveness of PET and CSF markers, electrophysiology and plasma biomarkers are being studied as alternate biomarkers for early detection and disease tracking. The aim of this study is twofold.

The literature showed firm conclusions that decreasing event-related delta and theta responses could be a biomarker showing cognitive decline (Güntekin et al. 2022).
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Vigilance and sleep disturbances in Alzheimer's and related diseases, even at the stage of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), have been extensively documented, showing abnormal daytime naps and alterations in the sleep-wake cycle. However, the EEG correlates of the transition from wakefulness to light sleep have not yet been compared between MCI patients due to Alzheimer's vs. other neurodegenerative diseases.

Background: Literature on biomarker studies suggests that pathological changes begin approximately 10 to 20 years before the first cognitive symptom appears in dementia populations. It is an emerging era for developing methods to detect the early signs of progressive cognitive decline. Recently, the instrumental activity of living (IADL) capacity has been regarded as a functional biomarker to predict the progression from MCI to dementia.
