text: Novelty facilitates formation of memories. The detection of novelty and storage
of contextual memories are both mediated by the hippocampus, yet the mechanisms
that link these two functions remain to be defined. Dentate granule cells (GCs)
of the dorsal hippocampus fire upon novelty exposure forming engrams of contextual
memory. However, their key excitatory inputs from the entorhinal cortex are not
responsive to novelty and are insufficient to make dorsal GCs fire reliably. Here
we uncover a powerful glutamatergic pathway to dorsal GCs from ventral hippocampal
mossy cells (MCs) that relays novelty, and is necessary and sufficient for driving
dorsal GCs activation. Furthermore, manipulation of ventral MCs activity bidirectionally
regulates novelty-induced contextual memory acquisition. Our results show that
ventral MCs activity controls memory formation through an intra-hippocampal interaction
mechanism gated by novelty.
