The hippocampus is critically important for a diverse range of cognitive processes, such as episodic memory, prospective memory, affective processing, and spatial navigation. Using individual-specific precision functional mapping of resting-state functional MRI data, we found the anterior hippocampus (head and body) to be preferentially functionally connected to the default mode network (DMN), as expected. The hippocampal tail, however, was strongly preferentially functionally connected to the parietal memory network (PMN), which supports goal-oriented cognition and stimulus recognition. This anterior–posterior dichotomy of resting-state functional connectivity was well-matched by differences in task deactivations and anatomical segmentations of the hippocampus. Task deactivations were localized to the hippocampal head and body (DMN), relatively sparing the tail (PMN). The functional dichotomization of the hippocampus into anterior DMN-connected and posterior PMN-connected parcels suggests parallel but distinct circuits between the hippocampus and medial parietal cortex for self- versus goal-oriented processing.

Studies suggest that resting-state functional connectivity conveys cognitive information; also, activity flow mediates cognitive information transfer. However, the exact mechanism of interregional interactions underlying episodic memory remains unclear. We performed a combined analysis of task-evoked activity and resting-state functional connectivity by activity flow mapping to estimate the information transfer mechanism of episodic memory. We found that the cognitive control and attentional networks were the most recruited structures in information transfers during both encoding and retrieval processes; these networks were correlated with task-evoked activation. Differences in information transfer intensity between encoding and retrieval mainly existed in the visual, somatomotor and hippocampal systems. Furthermore, information transfer showed high predictive power for episodic memory ability and mediated relationships between task-evoked activation and memory performance. Additional analysis indicated that structural connectivity had a transportive role in information transfer. Finally, our study presented the information transfer mechanism of episodic memory from multiple neural perspectives.

Individual differences in positive memory recollection are of interest in mental health, as positive memories can help protect people against stress and depression. However, it is unclear how individual differences in positive memory recollection are reflected in brain activity in the resting state. Here, we investigate the resting-state functional connectivity (FC) associated with interindividual variations in positive memory by employing cluster-level inferences based on randomization/permutation region of interest (ROI)-to-ROI analyses. We identified a cluster of FCs that was positively associated with positive memory performance, including the frontal operculum, central operculum, parietal operculum, Heschl's gyrus, and planum temporale. The current results suggest that positive memory is innervated by frontotemporal network connectivity, which may have implications for future investigations of vulnerability to stress and depression.

After experiences are encoded, post-encoding reactivations during sleep have been proposed to mediate long-term memory consolidation. Spindle-slow oscillation coupling during NREM sleep is a candidate mechanism through which a hippocampal-cortical dialogue may strengthen a newly formed memory engram. Here, we investigated the role of fast spindle- and slow spindle-slow oscillation coupling in the consolidation of spatial memory in humans with a virtual water maze task involving allocentric and egocentric learning strategies. Furthermore, we analyzed how resting-state functional connectivity evolved across learning, consolidation, and retrieval of this task using a data-driven approach. Our results show task-related connectivity changes in the executive control network, the default mode network, and the hippocampal network at post-task rest. The hippocampal network could further be divided into two subnetworks of which only one showed modulation by sleep. Decreased functional connectivity in this subnetwork was associated with higher spindle-slow oscillation coupling power, which was also related to better memory performance at test. Overall, this study contributes to a more holistic understanding of the functional resting-state networks and the mechanisms during sleep associated to spatial memory consolidation.
