Hippocampal CA1 Pyramidal Neuron

• ID: sao830368389

• Synonym: CA1 pyramidal neuron

• Modified Date: 2009-06-02

• Created Date: 2007-09-05

• Comment: This class is still under review and requires changes before making it public. For now this is purely for internal Mason cell ontology group only

• Key References: Ishizuka et al JCN 1995 (PMID: 8576427)

• Note: The characteristics provided for this cell class are based on the most abundant data in the field, which are from young adult rats. There could be species-specific, age-specific, and even gender-specific differences. For example, monkey and rat differ in cytoarchitectonic structure and quantitative cell morphology.
