And memory is thought, a mental seed planted by an artist, which is reproduced in as many different variations as the number of people in whom the memory exists.
Pain memory is thought to affect future pain sensitivity and thus contribute to clinical pain conditions.
This sort of dynamic memory is thought to be mediated by the formation of cell assemblies groups of activated neurons that maintain their activity by constantly stimulating one another.
The cellular underpinning of learning and long-term memory is thought to depend on proper synapse-to-nucleus communication through the importins [7], [8].
Indeed, the role of the hippocampus in memory storage is rather transient, since (after some time) the memory is thought to be transferred to the cerebral cortex where it is stored permanently [27].
Intuitively one may deduce that such a global event nonspecifically collapses or erases memory traces in a network, because memory is thought to be stored on a synapse-specific network refinement [1].
Until very recently, T cell memory was thought to reside primarily in blood and lymphoid tissues, sites from which effector T cells could be recruited when needed for primary or secondary immune responses in peripheral tissues.
