The anatomy of the rodent hippocampus. Place cells (complex spiking pyramidal cells) have been found in the CA3 and CA1 of the hippocampus. Image of the whole brain with the coronal sectioning of the hippocampal structure was created from an open access software (Allen Brain Atlas − Brain Explorer® 2). Pentagonal cells represent granular neurons of dentate gyrus, whereas triangular cells represent pyramidal neurons of CA3 and CA1.
