    Article Snippet: To stimulate these axons and trigger action potentials, a glass micropipette (GC150TF-10, Harvard Apparatus, USA) pulled with a patch-pipette puller (Flaming/Brown P97, Sutter Instruments, Novato, CA, USA) with electrical resistance of 1-3 MΩ was inserted into the olfactory nerve layer of a brain slice and trains of electrical pulses (0.1 ms pulse width, 2.3 mA amplitude, 20 Hz for 10 s) were applied (Digitimer DS3, Digitimer Ltd, Hertfordshire, England).

    Article Title: Membrane potential response profiles of CA1 pyramidal cells probed with voltage-sensitive dye optical imaging in rat hippocampal slices reveal the impact of GABA(A)-mediated feed-forward inhibition in signal propagation.
    Article Snippet: The spatial and temporal distribution of excitatory and inhibitory membrane potential responses on a cell plays an important role in neuronal calculations in local neuronal circuits in the brain.. The electrical dynamics of excitatory and inhibitory inputs along the somatodendritic extent of CA1 pyramidal cells during circuit activation were examined by stimulating strata radiatum (SR), oriens (SO), and lacunosum-moleculare (SLM) and measuring laminar responses with voltage-sensitive dye (VSD) optical recording methods.. We first confirmed the linearity of the optical signal by comparing fluorescence changes in CA1 to global membrane potential changes when slices were bathed in high-potassium ([K]O = 25 mM) solution.

    Article Snippet: 9.2.2 Euthanasia • Anesthesia chamber • Large, sharp scissors or guillotine (e.g., Braintree Scientific Nemi Guillotine) • Carcass bag 9.2.3 Dissection • Ice bath for cooling slicing solution • Tissue slicer such as the Compresstome VF-300-0Z Microtome (Precisionary Instruments Inc.) or Vibratome VT1200 S (Leica Biosystems) • Warm water bath (e.g., All Stainless-Steel Water Bath Model 181, Precision Scientific) • Various scissors (e.g., iris scissors, fine scissors) • Forceps (curved forceps with fine tip and blunt forceps) • Spatulas (one flat and one angled end) • Rongeurs bone cutters for adult animals (e.g., #14091, World Precision Instruments) • Slice transfer pipette with large tip opening (DIY: we use plastic 7 mL Pasteur pipettes with the tip cut off to create an opening roughly the size of the brain slices) • Petri dish for dissecting brain (we use Sylgard-coated petri dishes, which makes the bottom of the dish less slippery and improves handling of the tissue) • Cyanoacrylate glue • Small plastic or glass beaker • Razor blade • Slice recovery and storage chambers (see Fig. 2 for DIY instructions) 9.2.4 Imaging • Vibration isolation table (e.g., Newport Optical table) • Faraday cage that fits on the isolation table and surrounds the microscope Neurophotonics 031913-10 Jul–Sep 2022 • Vol. .. 9(3) Downloaded From: https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/journals/Neurophotonics on 15 Dec 2023 Terms of Use: https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/terms-of-use • Microscope (e.g., Olympus BX51WI) with DIC optics • Low magnification air objective (e.g., UPlanFL N 4 × ∕0.13, Olympus) and high magnification water-immersion objective (e.g., LUMPlanFL N 40 × ∕0.80 W, Olympus) • Bright-field light source (e.g., Olympus TH4-100) • Epifluorescence light source (e.g., EXFO, X-Cite Series 120) • Camera (e.g., Thor Labs USB 3.0 CMOS Camera or a DAGE-MTI IR-1000 that is more sensitive for IR-DIC imaging) • Patch-clamp amplifier (e.g., Axopatch 200B, Axon Instruments) • Digitizer (e.g., Digidata 1450-B, Axon Instruments) • Isolated current stimulator (e.g., DS3, Digitimer) • Micromanipulators (e.g., MP-225, Sutter Instrument Company) • Glass pipette puller (e.g., P-97 Flaming/Brown type micropipette puller, Sutter Instruments Company) • Imaging chamber (e.g., PC-H, Siskiyou Corporation) • Thick-walled borosilicate glass capillaries (1B150F-4, World Precision Instruments) • Thin-walled borosilicate glass capillaries (TW150-4, World Precision Instruments) • Slice anchor, or a “harp”: this can be created by the user for a completely custom anchor (we make ours using flattened horse-shoe-shaped platinum wire and attaching nylon strings to it) or purchased from commercial retailers (e.g., Warner Instruments) • Perfusion system (we use a gravity fed system, but perfusion pumps can be employed; make sure the pump is outside the Faraday cage as it can introduce noise into electrical recordings) • Temperature probe and regulator (e.g., TC-324B, Warner Instrument Corporation) • Vacuum system plumbed to the imaging chamber Neurophotonics 031913-11 Jul–Sep 2022 • Vol. .. 9(3) Downloaded From: https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/journals/Neurophotonics on 15 Dec 2023 Terms of Use: https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/terms-of-use 9.2.5 Software • Image acquisition and analysis software (e.g., μManager ImageJ, NIH, or MetaMorph, Molecular Devices) • Electrophysiology recording and analysis software (e.g., pClamp Clampex and Clampfit modules, Molecular Devices) 10 Reagent Setup 10.1 Slicing Solution Combine 2.5 mM KCl, 1.2 mM NaH2PO4, 30 mM NaHCO3, 20 mM HEPES, 25 mM Dglucose, 1 mM kynurenic acid, 5 mM Na ascorbate, 3 mM Na pyruvate, 93 mM NMDG, and 93 mM HCl in ∼950 mL of ddH2O (pH 7.3 to 7.4).
