“…First, several neuroanatomical changes occur in the DG in hAPP mouse models (Bearer et al, 2018; Fontana et al, 2017; Jacobsen et al, 2006; Krezymon et al, 2013; Ohm, 2007; Palop et al, 2005; Palop et al, 2007; Palop et al, 2003; Roberson et al, 2011; You et al, 2017) that also occur in human AD (Ohm, 2007; Scharfman, 2012; Scharfman, 2019). Regarding hyperexcitability, the DG is relevant because it is considered to be a region that can generate seizures in temporal lobe epilepsy (Heinemann et al, 1992; Kobayashi and Buckmaster, 2003; Krook-Magnuson et al, 2015; Lothman et al, 1992; Scharfman, 2019; Sun et al, 2007). In amnestic mild cognitive impairment, neuroimaging shows that the DG and area CA3 are hyperexcitable (Bakker et al, 2012).…”
