Timing of Single-Neuron and Local Field Potential Responses in the Human Medial Temporal Lobe

Abstract: Summary The relationship between the firing of single cells and local field potentials (LFPs) has received increasing attention, with studies in animals [1-11] and humans [12-14]. Recordings in the human medial temporal lobe (MTL) have demonstrated the existence of neurons with selective and invariant responses [15], with a relatively late but precise response onset around 300 ms after stimulus presentation [16-18] and firing only upon conscious recognition of the stimulus [19]. This represents a much later on… Show more

“…This difference in response latency between unit activity and LFP confirms the notion that neuronal action potentials represent the output activity of a neuron, whereas the LFP represents postsynaptic input activity and ongoing neuronal processing (20). These findings are in line with previous reports that LFP responses precede the onset of single-cell firing in the human MTL (26).…”

“…Studies of memory‐related hippocampal physiology in rodents typically examine spike‐field synchrony and in a specific segment of a specific hippocampal subfield, most often the septal (“dorsal”) CA1. In humans, measures of medial‐temporal lobe gamma synchrony or oscillatory activity typically use power (but see (Jacobs et al, ; Rey et al, ); localization is approximate and often collapsed across hippocampal subfield, the septotemporal axis, and sometimes larger regions of medial temporal lobe. Furthermore, primate studies typically measure subsequent memory effects (or “difference because of memory”) rather than recall (but see Sederberg et al, ; Rutishauser et al, ; Kucewicz et al, ).…”

“…Several studies have bridged the gap from single neurons to content-specific patterns in the LFP, showing both category [21,22] and stimulus [23,24] specific neuronal firing and LFP responses at low (below 10 Hz) and high (>30 Hz) frequencies in the human temporal lobe. Thus, activity in the theta and gamma bands appear particularly relevant for neural representation [25] (Figure 1A).…”

“…Content-specific neurons fire at specific frequencies, but across an extended and therefore unspecific phase range. Content specific information (right panel) in this scenario can be recovered via frequency-specific power increases or by considering neuronal firing as a function of power [22,24,25,27,31]. C) Layout similar to B for a phase-specific firing scheme.…”
