CA1 pyramidal neurons increase their firing (recorded extracellularly) in response to ionophoresed Glu within their apical dendritic fields or in the cell body layer (Dudar 1974 PMID#4437726). Glutamate is commonly believed to be the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the hippocampal formation generally (reviewed in Cotman et al. CA1 pyramidal neurons increase their firing (recorded extracellularly) in response to ionophoresed Glu within their apical dendritic fields or in the cell body layer (Dudar 1974 PMID#4437726). P2.The CA1 oblique dendrites (also called radial oblique) are the main target of the Schaffer collaterals from CA3, and are therefore the primary sites of generation of LTP.
