molecular layer of the CA fields (CAmo)

The term molecular layer of the CA fields refers to the outermost of three histologically defined layers of the CA fields in the functionally defined hippocampal complex. It consists of three strata: stratum lacunosum moleculare, stratum radiatum and stratum lucidum. The other layers are the pyramidal layer of the CA fields and oriens layer of the CA fields. All of the layers and strata are found in CA fields of the human ( Insausti-2012 ), macaque ( Paxinos-2009a ), rat ( Swanson-2004 ) and mouse ( Franklin-2008 ). Updated 3 Jun 2024 ).

Also known as: molecular layer of the hippocampus, Stratum moleculare, molecular layer of the CA fields
