CA4 field - BrainInfo

CA4 field (CA4)

The term CA4 field refers to a cell group in the hilus of the dentate gyrus of the human ( Duvernoy-2005 ) and the macaque ( Paxinos-2009a ). It is not found in the rat and mouse where the dentate gyrus has no hilus ( Insausti-2012 ). On one side CA4 borders the polymorphic layer of the dentate gyrus; on the other it borders the CA3 field ( Rosene-1987 ). The internal structure of CA4 is not uniform, the neuronal cell bodies are ovoid, large, few in number and scattered among intertwined myelinated fibers. Updated 31 May 2024.

Also known as: CA4 field, CA4 subfield, sub-field CA4, field CA4 of the hippocampus
