Optogenetic stimulation of lateral amygdala input to posterior piriform cortex modulates single-unit and ensemble odor processing

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2015
Olfactory information is synthesized within the olfactory cortex to provide not only an odor percept, but also a contextual significance that supports appropriate behavioral response to specific odor cues.

Kalium channelrhodopsins effectively inhibit neurons

open access: yesNature Communications
AbstractThe analysis of neural circuits has been revolutionized by optogenetic methods. Light-gated chloride-conducting anion channelrhodopsins (ACRs)—recently emerged as powerful neuron inhibitors. For cells or sub-neuronal compartments with high intracellular chloride concentrations, however, a chloride conductance can have instead an activating ...

Leaky expression of channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) in Ai32 mouse lines

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Optogenetics enables the selective activation of genetically-targeted neuronal populations using light-sensitive ion channels. Genetic strategies using Cre-dependent mouse strains, especially the Ai32 line expressing Channelrhodopsin (ChR2)-EYFP fusion ...

Dissecting inhibitory brain circuits with genetically-targeted technologies

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2014
The evolution of genetically targeted tools has begun to allow us to dissect anatomically and functionally heterogeneous interneurons, and to probe circuit function from synapses to behavior.

Formation Mechanism of Ion Channel in Channelrhodopsin-2: Molecular Dynamics Simulation and Steering Molecular Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) is a light-activated and non-selective cationic channel protein that can be easily expressed in specific neurons to control neuronal activity by light.

Optogenetic dissection of neuronal circuits in zebrafish using viral gene transfer and the Tet system

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2009
The conditional expression of transgenes at high levels in sparse and specific populations of neurons is important for high-resolution optogenetic analyses of neuronal circuits.

Regulated peristalsis into the acidic region of the _Drosophila_ larval midgut is controlled by a novel component of the Autonomic Nervous System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate and coordinate critical physiological processes such as peristalsis are complex, often cryptic, and involve the integration of multiple tissues and organ systems within the organism.
