Temporal nesting of cortical slow oscillations, thalamic spindles, and hippocampal ripples indicates multiregional neuronal interactions required for memory consolidation. However, how the thalamic activity during spindles organizes hippocampal dynamics remains largely undetermined. We analyzed simultaneous recordings of anterodorsal thalamus and CA1 in male mice to determine the contribution of thalamic spindles in cross-regional synchronization. Our results indicated that temporal hippocampo-thalamocortical coupling was more enhanced during slower and longer thalamic spindles. Additionally, spindles occurring closer to slow oscillation trough were more strongly coupled to ripples. We found that the temporal association between CA1 spiking/ripples and thalamic spindles was stronger following spatial exploration compared with baseline sleep. We further developed a hippocampal-thalamocortical model to explain the mechanism underlying the duration and frequency-dependent coupling of thalamic spindles to hipp...
