CA1 pyramidal neuronDistal apical dendriteGlutamatePerforant pathway entorhinal pyramidal neuron terminals (T)Glutamate is commonly believed to be the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the hippocampal formation generally (reviewed in Cotman et al., 1995), and in CA1 in particular (Storm-Mathisen J , 1977141 , Randall AD and Collingridge GL , 1992142 ). 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).
