  • TrAC permits fluorescent labeling of genetically defined neuron populations based on axonal projections. Schematic diagrams show a simple version of TrAC using two recombinases and a dual-recombinase-responsive fluorescent indicator allele. Fluorescent labeling is restricted to neurons expressing recombinase A which project to the brain region injected with the retrograde-transported virus encoding recombinase B.

  • The ClaustrumClassifier (ClaCla): a neural-network assisted cell classification tool. A trained neural network developed to facilitate the classification of claustral neurons in four steps. Step 1, Input raw data file. Step 2, Automated extraction of intrinsic electrical properties. Step 3, Neuronal network assisted cell classification. Step 4, The classifier returns the likelihood that the classified cell belongs to one of the eight cell subtypes.

  • This image shows a parvalbuminexpressing inhibitory basket cell (green) in the hippocampus of an amyloid-depositing 5xFAD mouse. The cell has been morphologically reconstructed after patch clamp recording of spontaneous synaptic activity during sharp wave ripple events. Non-patched parvalbumin neurons are labeled in red.

  • Figure 1: Microbiome depletion alters how the brain responds to opioids. Microbiome intact animals in the intoxication state (left) exhibited increases in neuronal recruitment (green arrows) in the basolateral amygdala (BLA), while the central amygdala (CeA), periaqueductal gray (PAG), and locus coeruleus (LC) do not exhibit increases (blue dash) compared to control animals. During withdrawal, microbiome intact animals exhibit increased recruitment of the CeA and lateral habenula (LHB) compared to control animals. Microbiome depleted animals (right) exhibit a reduction of recruitment in the BLA, and increases in the CeA, PAG, and LC in the intoxication state compared to intact animals. Additionally, microbiome depleted animals in the withdrawal state exhibit a decrease in the CeA and an increase in recruitment in the Lateral Habenula (LHB) compared to intact animals.
