Dysregulated adult hippocampal neurogenesis occurs in many temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) models. Most dentate granule cells (DGCs) generated in response to an epileptic insult develop features that promote increased excitability, including ectopic location, persistent hilar basal dendrites (HBDs), and mossy fiber sprouting. However, some appear to integrate normally and even exhibit reduced excitability compared to other DGCs. To examine the relationship between DGC birthdate, morphology, and network integration in a model of TLE, we retrovirally birthdated either early-born [EB; postnatal day (P)7] or adult-born (AB; P60) DGCs. Male rats underwent pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus (SE) or sham treatment at P56. Three to six months after SE or sham treatment, we used whole-cell patch-clamp and fluorescence microscopy to record spontaneous excitatory and inhibitory currents from birthdated DGCs. We found that both AB and EB populations of DGCs recorded from epileptic rats received increased excitatory input compared with age-matched controls. Interestingly, when AB populations were separated into normally integrated (normotopic) and aberrant (ectopic or HBD-containing) subpopulations, only the aberrant populations exhibited a relative increase in excitatory input (amplitude, frequency, and charge transfer). The ratio of excitatory-to-inhibitory input was most dramatically upregulated for ectopically localized DGCs. These data provide definitive physiological evidence that aberrant integration of post-SE, AB DGCs contributes to increased synaptic drive and support the idea that ectopic DGCs serve as putative hub cells to promote seizures.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Adult dentate granule cell (DGC) neurogenesis is altered in rodent models of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Some of the new neurons show abnormal morphology and integration, but whether adult-generated DGCs contribute to the development of epilepsy is controversial. We examined the synaptic inputs of age-defined populations of DGCs using electrophysiological recordings and fluorescent retroviral reporter birthdating. DGCs generated neonatally were compared with those generated in adulthood, and adult-born (AB) neurons with normal versus aberrant morphology or integration were examined. We found that AB, ectopically located DGCs exhibit the most pro-excitatory physiological changes, implicating this population in seizure generation or progression.
