Apoptosis and necrosis induced in different hippocampal neuron populations by repetitive
perforant path stimulation in the rat.
Differential presynaptic and postsynaptic expression of m1-m4 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors at the
perforant pathway/granule cell synapse.
Noradrenergic and locus coeruleus modulation of the
perforant path-evoked potential in rat dentate gyrus supports a role for the locus coeruleus in attentional and memorial processes.
The superficial and deep veins of the foot are linked by communicating
perforant veins.
Within the hippocampal circuit, the DG is an entry point which receives the afferents from, but not limited to, the entorhinal cortex, via the so called
perforant pathway.
Granule cells, the principal neurons of the dentate gyrus, receive their primary excitatory input from stellate cells in the entorhinal cortex, whose axons form the
perforant pathway [2].
Its vascularization is provided by
perforant segments from M2 (and occasionally from M1 or M3) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA).

perforant ulcer in the foot of a person with diabetes," Diabetes Research and Clinical Practice, vol.
Moreover, ELF-EMF leads to an increase in synaptic plasticity in the
perforant pathway of the dentate gyrus (DG) [5].
