Functional cross‐hemispheric shift between object‐place paired associate memory and spatial memory in the human hippocampus

Abstract: The hippocampus plays critical roles in both object‐based event memory and spatial navigation, but it is largely unknown whether the left and right hippocampi play functionally equivalent roles in these cognitive domains. To examine the hemispheric symmetry of human hippocampal functions, we used an fMRI scanner to measure BOLD activity while subjects performed tasks requiring both object‐based event memory and spatial navigation in a virtual environment. Specifically, the subjects were required to form object… Show more

“…The role of the left side has been suggested to relate to the transfer of recently formed memories to long-term storage (in rats, [22]) or function in autobiographical memory formation (in humans, [30]). More recently, the left hippocampal formation in humans has been shown to be preferentially active during an object recognition task [3,4] whereas the right hippocampus showed greater response in a place task [4]. It is intriguing that we found similar left side preference for object processing in mice, suggesting perhaps greater functional parallels between humans and rodents than has been recognized.…”

“…In humans, both hippocampal hemispheres are recruited during spatial navigation, although activity in only the right hippocampus corresponds to navigation accuracy [2]. Conversely, the left entorhinal cortex appears to be specialized for object encoding [3] and the left hippocampus is specialized for object-cued spatial memory [4]. Spatial navigation involves actual or imagined self-motion through a real or virtual environment, whereas object memory consists of the processing of externally originating sensory stimuli; invoking a long-held dichotomy in the characteristics of information integrated by the hippocampus described in the cognitive map theory [5].…”

“…We then grand-averaged the P1w peak amplitude for EC and FG stimulation separately in each individual patient, when the stimulation is delivered to more than one electrode pair in each region. Recently, Lee, Ryu, Lee, Kim, and Lee (2016) showed in human fMRI study that the efficient retrieval of object-place paired associate memory was correlated with the BOLD response of the left hippocampus, whereas the efficient retrieval of relatively pure spatial memory was correlated with the right hippocampal BOLD response, suggesting that the left and right hippocampus process qualitatively different information for remembering episodic events in space. Thus, we expect that both the left and right hippocampus may have an important role in episodic memory function.…”
