CA1-pyramidal cell

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.11656
Pyramidal neuron located in the cornu ammonis area 1, in the hippocampus.
Notes:
  1. CA1-pyramidal cells provide an output pathway from the hippocampus involved in long-term learning and memory.
  2. They are more susceptible to ischemia and hypoxia than the neighbouring CA3-pyramidal cells.
