Hippocampal-targeted Theta-burst Stimulation Enhances Associative Memory Formation

Abstract

The hippocampus plays a critical role in episodic memory, among other cognitive functions. However, few tools exist to causally manipulate hippocampal function in healthy human participants. Recent work has targeted hippocampal-cortical networks by performing TMS to a region interconnected with the hippocampus, posterior inferior parietal cortex (pIPC). Such hippocampal-targeted TMS enhances associative memory and influences hippocampal functional connectivity. However, it is currently unknown which stages of mnemonic processing (encoding or retrieval) are affected by hippocampal-targeted TMS. Here, we examined whether hippocampal-targeted TMS influences the initial encoding of associations (vs. items) into memory. To selectively influence encoding and not retrieval, we performed continuous theta-burst TMS before participants encoded object-location associations and assessed memory after the direct effect of stimulation dissipated. Relative to control TMS and baseline memory, pIPC TMS enhanced associative memory success and confidence. Item memory was unaffected, demonstrating a selective influence on associative versus item memory. The strength of hippocampal-pIPC functional connectivity predicted TMS-related memory benefits, which was mediated by parahippocampal and retrosplenial cortices. Our findings indicate that hippocampal-targeted TMS can specifically modulate the encoding of new associations into memory without directly influencing retrieval processes and suggest that the ability to influence associative memory may be related to the fidelity of hippocampal TMS targeting. These results support the notion that pIPC TMS may serve as a potential tool for manipulating hippocampal function in healthy participants. Nonetheless, future work combining hippocampal-targeted continuous theta-burst TMS with neuroimaging is needed to better understand the neural basis of TMS-induced memory changes.

TMS targeting and experimental design. (A) A group level map of hippocampal functional connectivity (center) was created using the right middle hippocampus as a seed region (left) from the fMRI study. The connectivity map is overlaid on regions of the angular gyrus defined based on cytoarchitectonic features, posterior PG (PGp, in blue) and anterior PG (PGa, in green; Caspers et al., 2010). A group level ROI (15-mm radius) was created around the location of peak hippocampal connectivity in pIPC. To define hippocampal-targeted pIPC TMS sites (right), participant-specific hippocampal functional connectivity maps were created (red correlation map) and overlaid on the group level ROI (transformed into each participant’s native space; orange shaded region). The TMS site was chosen as the location of each participant’s maximal hippocampal functional connectivity within the group level ROI. All group level maps are available on neurovault.org (neurovault.org/collections/AELKYBHZ/). (B) TMS sites displayed for all participants as spheres (pIPC in blue; control in black). (C) The TMS study consisted of three sessions across 3 consecutive weeks (in addition to a baseline MRI/TMS session). Each week comprised encoding and retrieval sessions, separated by 2–5 hr. During encoding, participants intentionally encoded unique objects and their associated spatial locations and performed an unrelated color discrimination task during the ITI. During retrieval, participants performed a remember/know/new decision for each object, then placed objects labeled as old in their associated spatial location, and rated the confidence of their placement. Behavioral sessions were performed during the baseline (first) session (left). cTBS was performed immediately before encoding during subsequent sessions to either pIPC or the control site (right), with the order of TMS sites counterbalanced across participants. (D) Object placement was modeled as a mixture of memory success (represented as a Gaussian distribution around each object’s location during encoding) and guessing behavior (represented as a uniform distribution across the screen), with the probability of memory success representing the proportion of trials belonging to the memory success distribution.

Associative and item memory across sessions. (A) Associative (object–location) memory for each session (baseline memory testing, pIPC TMS, and control TMS). The probability of object-location memory success is shown in the left plot, and the proportion of high and medium confident trials is shown in the right plot. (B) Item (object) memory for each session. Left bars show the proportion of item hits, and right bars show corrected item memory (proportion of hits minus false alarms). (C) Between-session changes in associative memory (probability of object-location memory success; dark green) and corrected item memory (light green). All error bars show standard deviation of the mean across participants, and individual circles correspond to data points for individual participants. *p < .05.

Figure 3.
Individual differences in memory changes across TMS sessions. TMS-related changes in associative (object–location) memory success were correlated with changes in recollection as a function of hippocampal-targeted TMS (pIPC minus control TMS; left plot) across participants. Differences in familiarity based on TMS site were not reliably related to changes in associative memory success (right plot). Robust regression was used to assess all across-participant correlations.

Intrinsic levels of hippocampal–pIPC functional connectivity, TMS-related benefits in associative memory, and potential mediators of hippocampal–pIPC functional connectivity. (A) Intrinsic functional connectivity between the hippocampus and pIPC TMS site was related to changes in the probability of associative memory success for pIPC versus control TMS. (B) Functional connectivity between the hippocampus and the control TMS site was not related to changes in associative memory success between TMS sites. (C) The strongest mediators of hippocampal–pIPC functional connectivity were identified from the fMRI study (excluding overlapping participants with the TMS study) and included RSC (left) and PHC (right). The statistical map is available on neurovault.org. (D) Intrinsic hippocampal–pIPC functional connectivity no longer predicted TMS-related benefits in associative memory success when controlling for the BOLD signal in right PHC. This relationship was significantly weaker than the correlation in A.
