Dopaminergic modulation of activity dependent synaptic plasticity in rodent lateral entorhinal cortex (2021)
Thesis
Wells, T. R. (2021). Dopaminergic modulation of activity dependent synaptic plasticity in rodent lateral entorhinal cortex. (Thesis). Keele University

The entorhinal cortex serves as the interface region between allocortical input and the hippocampus, with current theories suggesting that the region is involved in memory encoding, with dopamine serving as a “motivational currency” provided to memor...

Dopaminergic modulation of superficial layer projection neuron excitability in the lateral entorhinal cortex (2020)
Thesis
Harvey, L. A. (2020). Dopaminergic modulation of superficial layer projection neuron excitability in the lateral entorhinal cortex. (Thesis). Keele University

Projection neurons located in the superficial layers of the entorhinal cortex provide the hippocampus with nearly all its sensory input. This innervation occurs via multiple discrete pathways to different targets within the hippocampus, including the...

Evaluation of cultured cochlear fibrocytes as a cell replacement therapy: comparison with native fibrocytes (2020)
Thesis
Osborn, A. H. (2020). Evaluation of cultured cochlear fibrocytes as a cell replacement therapy: comparison with native fibrocytes. (Thesis). Keele University

Fibrocyte degeneration in the cochlear lateral wall is one possible pathology of age-related metabolic hearing loss (presbyacusis). Fibrocytes play a role in potassium recycling and maintenance of the endocochlear potential (EP). It has been proposed...
