Abstract
Studies on the cellular and subcellular levels promote elucidation of the fundamental principles of formation of effective neuronal systems from cell units. To estimate the interrelations between electrical activity of neuronal networks and processes realized on the cellular level, we need to adequately understand the general patterns of behavior of populations of interneurons, which are components of these networks, under different physiological conditions. In this review, we describe and discuss the relations between the electrical activity of single hippocampal neurons and different components of the field electrical activity, as well as modern concepts on the mode of involvement of the system of hippocampal interneurons in the formation of physiologically important patterns of efferent activity of the above-mentioned structure (in particular in encoding of information on the neuronal level).
