Category:Hippocampus CA2 bistratified cell narrow

Name:	Hippocampus CA2 bistratified cell narrow
Definition:	A type of neuron found in hippocampal area CA2 characterized by radially oriented dendrites that resemble CA1 bistratified cells, but they extend through stratum oriens and stratum radiatum without entering stratum lacunosum-moleculare. The narrow CA2 bistratified cell dendrites and axons are more confined within the CA2 region.
