Pattern co-activation. a Example of recorded hippocampal activity from a control animal during a RUN session. From top to bottom: Raster of single unit-activity of 51 cells, local field potential, ripple power (in a.u.), and position on linear track. b Covariance matrix obtained from z-scored population rate vectors within theta cycles throughout the RUN session from A. c Two examples of significant eigenvectors (wide columns) from the covariance matrix and five matching example pattern vectors from the PRE, RUN, and POST rest sessions. Red frames indicate examples from a lesioned animal. Colors as in b. d Example of three co-activation traces (scalar product between patterns and eigenvectors) as a function of time during PRE and POST rest epochs (scale bars: horizontal 100 s, vertical 50 standard deviations, traces are offset parallel to y-axis for visual distinction). e Session-wise mean RUN (left) and POST (right) co-activation traces vs. mean PRE co-activation traces for all significant eigenvectors from control animals (black, Ctr.) and MEC-lesioned animals (red, Les.). The blue contours (1, 5, 50, and 90%) delineate isoclines of the null distribution obtained from 50,000 random permutations of cell indices. f Session-wise regression slopes of PRE vs. RUN and PRE vs. POST. Whiskers represent 1.5 interquartile range. Comparison between animal groups; PRE–POST ranksum test: p = 0.00057, r.s. = 225, n = 29 slopes; PRE–RUN ranksum test: p = 0.0011, r.s. = 221, n = 29 slopes. g Cumulative histogram of relative change [top: (POST–PRE)/(POST + PRE); bottom: (RUN-PRE)/(RUN + PRE)]. Signed-rank tests show PRE–POST control: p = 2.4E-8, s.r. = 60, n = 50 patterns; MEC-lesion p = 1.6E−4, s.r. = 642, n = 72 patterns; PRE–RUN control: p = 1.98E−8, s.r. = 56.0, n = 50 patterns; MEC-lesion p = 1.59E−7, s.r. = 380, n = 72 patterns. Comparison between PRE–RUN and PRE–POST: Control: p = 2.4E−06, s.r. = 149, n = 50 patterns, MEC-lesion: p = 1.0E−4, s.r. = 623, n = 72 patterns; signed-rank test. Comparison between animal groups; PRE–POST ranksum test: p = 3.2E−4, r.s. = 3766; PRE–RUN ranksum test: p = 4.98E−6, r.s. = 3952
