Article Abstract
Memory consolidation involves interactions between the hippocampus and other cortical areas. A new study identifies neurons in the medial entorhinal cortex that over learning increase their coordination with hippocampal replay events, suggesting a route for consolidation of spatial memories.

Background: Cortisol and growth hormone are important for sleep regulation and cognition. Sleep is critical for cognitive functioning, and memory consolidation. Patients with pituitary disease experience hormonal dysregulation, impaired sleep quality, and cognitive dysfunction.

Rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) has historically been associated with anecdotal 'creative insights', possibly due to the fantastical and ostensibly illuminating nature of its associated phenomena (dreams). REMS, characterised by rapid eye movements, muscle atonia, and high-energy neuronal activity, has been linked to memory consolidation and information processing, particularly regarding the formation of novel associations or reintegration of consolidated memories into new cognitive networks. However, studies in these domains have largely used methodology which deprived subjects (animal or human) of REMS, rather than enhanced it.

Social buffering may reduce the persistent impacts of acute early life stress (aELS) and, thus, has important implications for anxiety- and trauma-related disorders. First, we assessed whether aELS would induce maladaptive fear incubation in adult mice, a PTSD-like phenotype. Overall, animals showed incubation of fear memory in adulthood, independent of aELS condition.

Memory formation involves a complex interplay of molecular and cellular processes, including synaptic plasticity mechanisms such as long-term potentiation (LTP) and long-term depression (LTD). These processes rely on activity-dependent gene expression and local protein synthesis at synapses. A central unresolved question in neuroscience is how memories can be stably maintained over time, despite the transient nature of the proteins involved in their initial encoding.

Models of memory consolidation propose that newly acquired memory traces undergo reorganisation during sleep. To test this idea, we recorded high-density electroencephalography (EEG) during an evening session of word-image learning followed by immediate (pre-sleep) and delayed (post-sleep) recall. Polysomnography was employed throughout the intervening night, capturing time spent in different sleep stages.
