"A recent experimental study (Mizuseki et al., 2009) has shown that the temporal
delays between population activities in successive entorhinal and hippocampal anatomical stages are
longer (about 70–80 ms) than expected from axon conduction velocities and passive synaptic integration
of feed-forward excitatory inputs. We investigate via computer simulations the mechanisms that give
rise to such long temporal delays in the hippocampus structures.
...
The model shows that the experimentally
reported long temporal delays in the DG, CA3 and CA1 hippocampal regions are due to theta
modulated somatic and axonic inhibition..."
