CA1alueen
The CA1 area, or CA1 region, is a subdivision of the hippocampus proper, forming part of the Cornu Ammonis. It lies between CA2/CA3 and the subiculum and is a core component of the hippocampal circuitry involved in memory processing.
Histologically, CA1 is dominated by pyramidal neurons whose cell bodies reside in the stratum pyramidale, with
Functionally, CA1 integrates information from its inputs and contributes to the encoding and retrieval of episodic
Clinically, CA1 is particularly vulnerable to ischemic and hypoxic injury and is often affected early in neurodegenerative
The name CA1 derives from Cornu Ammonis, the historical term for the hippocampal subfields.
