Abstract

Significance: Efforts starting more than 20 years ago led to increasingly well performing genetically encoded voltage indicators (GEVIs) for optical imaging at wavelengths <600 nm. Although optical imaging in the >600 nm wavelength range has many advantages over shorter wavelength approaches for mesoscopic in vivo monitoring of neuronal activity in the mammalian brain, the availability and evaluation of well performing near-infrared GEVIs are still limited. Aim: Here, we characterized two recent near-infrared GEVIs, Archon1 and nirButterfly, to support interested tool users in selecting a suitable near-infrared GEVI for their specific research question requirements. Approach: We characterized side-by-side the brightness, sensitivity, and kinetics of both near-infrared GEVIs in a setting focused on population imaging. Results: We found that nirButterfly shows seven-fold higher brightness than Archon1 under the same conditions and faster kinetics than Archon1 for population imaging without cellular resolution. But Archon1 showed larger signals than nirButterfly. Conclusions: Neither GEVI characterized here surpasses in all three key parameters (brightness, kinetics, and sensitivity), so there is no unequivocal preference for one of the two. Our side-by-side characterization presented here provides new information for future in vitro and ex vivo experimental designs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Voltage imaging of many neurons simultaneously at single-cell resolution is hampered by the difficulty of detecting small voltage signals from overlapping neuronal processes in neural tissue. Recent advances in genetically encoded voltage indicator (GEVI) imaging have shown single-cell resolution optical voltage recordings in intact tissue through imaging naturally sparse cell classes, sparse viral expression, soma restricted expression, advanced optical systems, or a combination of these. Widespread sparse and strong transgenic GEVI expression would enable straightforward optical access to a densely occurring cell type, such as cortical pyramidal cells. Here we demonstrate that a recently described sparse transgenic expression strategy can enable single-cell resolution voltage imaging of cortical pyramidal cells in intact brain tissue without restricting expression to the soma. We also quantify the functional crosstalk in brain tissue and discuss optimal imaging rates to inform future GEVI experimental design.

Abstract

Pyramidal neurons in neocortex have complex input-output relationships that depend on their morphologies, ion channel distributions, and the nature of their inputs, but which cannot be replicated by simple integrate-and-fire models. The impedance properties of their dendritic arbors, such as resonance and phase shift, shape neuronal responses to synaptic inputs and provide intraneuronal functional maps reflecting their intrinsic dynamics and excitability. Experimental studies of dendritic impedance have shown that neocortical pyramidal tract neurons exhibit distance-dependent changes in resonance and impedance phase with respect to the soma. We, therefore, investigated how well several biophysically detailed multicompartment models of neocortical layer 5 pyramidal tract neurons reproduce the location-dependent impedance profiles observed experimentally. Each model tested here exhibited location-dependent impedance profiles, but most captured either the observed impedance amplitude or phase, not both. The only model that captured features from both incorporates hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channels and a shunting current, such as that produced by Twik-related acid-sensitive K+ (TASK) channels. TASK-like channel density in this model was proportional to local HCN channel density. We found that although this shunting current alone is insufficient to produce resonance or realistic phase response, it modulates all features of dendritic impedance, including resonance frequencies, resonance strength, synchronous frequencies, and total inductive phase. We also explored how the interaction of HCN channel current (Ih) and a TASK-like shunting current shape synaptic potentials and produce degeneracy in dendritic impedance profiles, wherein different combinations of Ih and shunting current can produce the same impedance profile. NEW & NOTEWORTHY We simulated chirp current stimulation in the apical dendrites of 5 biophysically detailed multicompartment models of neocortical pyramidal tract neurons and found that a combination of HCN channels and TASK-like channels produced the best fit to experimental measurements of dendritic impedance. We then explored how HCN and TASK-like channels can shape the dendritic impedance as well as the voltage response to synaptic currents. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

In neurons, the Ca(2+) signal associated with the dendritic back-propagating action potential codes a chemical message to the different dendritic sites, playing a crucial role in electrical signalling, synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity. The study of the underlying Ca(2+) current, mediated by different types of voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels, cannot be achieved by using the patch clamp technique. In this article, we used a recently developed cutting-edge optical technique to investigate the physiological behaviour of local Ca(2+) currents along the apical dendrite of CA1 hippocampal pyramidal neurons. We directly measure, for the first time, the synergistic activation and deactivation of the diverse dendritic voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels operating during bursts of back-propagating action potentials to precisely control the Ca(2+) signal. We demonstrate that the Ca(2+) loss via high-voltage-activated channels is compensated by the Ca(2+) entry via the other channels translating in high fidelity of Ca(2+) signalling.In CA1 hippocampal pyramidal neurons, the dendritic Ca(2+) signal associated with somatic firing represents a fundamental activation code for several proteins. This signal, mediated by voltage-gated Ca(2+) channels (VGCCs), varies along the dendrites. In this study, using a recent optical technique based on the low-affinity indicator Oregon Green 488 BAPTA-5N, we analysed how activation and deactivation of VGCCs produced by back-propagating action potentials (bAPs) along the apical dendrite shape the Ca(2+) signal at different locations in CA1 hippocampal pyramidal neurons of the mouse. We measured, at multiple dendritic sites, the Ca(2+) transients and the changes in membrane potential associated with bAPs at 50 μs temporal resolution and we estimated the kinetics of the Ca(2+) current. We found that during somatic bursts, the bAPs decrease in amplitude along the apical dendrite but the amplitude of the associated Ca(2+) signal in the initial 200 μm dendritic segment does not change. Using a detailed pharmacological analysis, we demonstrate that this effect is due to the perfect compensation of the loss of Ca(2+) via high-voltage-activated (HVA) VGCCs by a larger Ca(2+) component via low-voltage-activated (LVA) VGCCs, revealing a mechanism coupling the two VGCC families of K(+) channels. More distally, where the bAP does not activate HVA-VGCCs, the Ca(2+) signal is variable during the burst. Thus, we demonstrate that HVA- and LVA-VGCCs operate synergistically to stabilise Ca(2+) signals associated with bAPs in the most proximal 200 μm dendritic segment.

Abstract

Higher cortical functions (perception, cognition, learning and memory) are in large part based on the integration of electrical and calcium signals that takes place in thin dendritic branches of neocortical pyramidal cells (synaptic integration). The mechanisms underlying the synaptic integration in thin basal dendrites are largely unexplored. We use a recently developed technique, multisite voltage–calcium imaging, to compare voltage and calcium transients from multiple locations along individual dendritic branches. Our results reveal characteristic electrical transients (plateau potentials) that trigger and shape dendritic calcium dynamics and calcium distribution during suprathreshold glutamatergic synaptic input. We regularly observed three classes of voltage–calcium interactions occurring simultaneously in three different zones of the same dendritic branch: (1) proximal to the input site, (2) at the input site, and (3) distal to the input site. One hundred micrometers away from the synaptic input site, both proximally and distally, dendritic calcium transients are in tight temporal correlation with the dendritic plateau potential. However, on the same dendrite, at the location of excitatory input, calcium transients outlast local dendritic plateau potentials by severalfold. These Ca2+ plateaus (duration 0.5–2 s) are spatially restricted to the synaptic input site, where they cause a brief down-regulation of dendritic excitability. Ca2+ plateaus are not mediated by Ca2+ release from intracellular stores, but rather by an NMDA-dependent small-amplitude depolarization, which persists after the collapse of the dendritic plateau potential. These unique features of dendritic voltage and calcium distributions may provide distinct zones for simultaneous long-term (bidirectional) modulation of synaptic contacts along the same basal branch.

Abstract

Rapidly progressing development of optogenetic tools, particularly genetically encoded optical indicators, enables monitoring activities of neuronal circuits of identified cell populations in longitudinal in vivo studies. Recently developed advanced transgenic approaches achieve high levels of indicator expression. However, targeting non-sparse cell populations leads to dense expression patterns such that optical signals from neuronal processes cannot be allocated to individual neurons. This issue is particularly pertinent for the use of genetically encoded voltage indicators whose membrane-delimited signals arise largely from the neuropil where dendritic and axonal membranes of many cells intermingle. Here we address this need for sparse but strong expression of genetically encoded optical indicators using a titratable recombination-activated transgene transcription to achieve a Golgi staining-type indicator expression pattern in vivo. Using different transgenic strategies, we also illustrate that co-expression of genetically encoded voltage and calcium indicators can be achieved in vivo for studying neuronal circuit input-output relationships.

Abstract

The common preconception about central nervous system neurones is that thousands of small postsynaptic potentials sum across the entire dendritic tree to generate substantial firing rates, previously observed in in vivo experiments. We present evidence that local inputs confined to a single basal dendrite can profoundly influence the neuronal output of layer V pyramidal neurones in the rat prefrontal cortical slices. In our experiments, brief glutamatergic stimulation delivered in a restricted part of the basilar dendritic tree invariably produced sustained plateau depolarizations of the cell body, accompanied by bursts of action potentials. Because of their small diameters, basolateral dendrites are not routinely accessible for glass electrode measurements, and very little is known about their electrical properties and their role in information processing. Voltage-sensitive dye recordings were used to follow membrane potential transients in distal segments of basal branches during sub- and suprathreshold glutamate and synaptic stimulations. Recordings were obtained simultaneously from multiple dendrites and multiple points along individual dendrites, thus showing in a direct way how regenerative potentials initiate at the postsynaptic site and propagate decrementally toward the cell body. The glutamate-evoked dendritic plateau depolarizations described here are likely to occur in conjunction with strong excitatory drive during so-called 'UP states', previously observed in in vivo recordings from mammalian cortices.
