The lateral septum (LS) has been implicated in anxiety and fear modulation and may
regulate interactions between the hippocampus and regions, such as the VTA, that mediate …

The lateral septum (LS) has been implicated in a wide variety of functions, including
emotional, motivational, and spatial behavior, and the LS may regulate interactions between …

The lateral septum (LS), which is innervated by the hippocampus, is known to represent
spatial information. However, the details of place representation in the LS, and whether this …

Several cortical and diencephalic limbic brain regions incorporate neurons that fire in
correlation with the speed of whole-body motion, also known as linear velocity. Besides the …

Anatomical differences between the medial and lateral septum have associated these nuclei
with dissimilar functional roles and behaviours. While the medial septum has been …

The hippocampal circuitry undergoes attentional modulation by the cholinergic medial
septum. However, it is unclear how septal activation regulates the spatial properties of …

Medial septal inputs to the hippocampal system are crucial for aspects of temporal and
spatial processing, such as theta oscillations and grid cell firing. However, the precise …

Before the onset of locomotion, the hippocampus undergoes a transition into an activity-state
specialized for the processing of spatially related input. This brain-state transition is …

The hippocampal spatial code's relevance for downstream neuronal populations—
particularly its major subcortical output the lateral septum (LS)—is still poorly understood …

The present study describes the spatial firing properties of neurons in the lateral septum
(LS). LS neuronal activity was recorded in rats as they performed a spatial navigation task in …
