Biased Connectivity of Brain-wide Inputs to Ventral Subiculum Output Neurons.

Ryan W S Wee | Andrew F MacAskill
Cell reports | 2020

The ventral subiculum (vS) of the mouse hippocampus coordinates diverse behaviors through heterogeneous populations of pyramidal neurons that project to multiple distinct downstream regions. Each of these populations of neurons is proposed to integrate a unique combination of thousands of local and long-range synaptic inputs, but the extent to which this occurs remains unknown. To address this, we employ monosynaptic rabies tracing to study the input-output relationship of vS neurons. Analysis of brain-wide inputs reveals quantitative input differences that could be explained by a combination of both the identity of the downstream target and the spatial location of the postsynaptic neurons within vS. These results support a model of combined topographical and output-defined connectivity of vS inputs. Overall, we reveal prominent heterogeneity in brain-wide inputs to the vS parallel output circuitry, providing a basis for the selective control of individual projections during behavior.

Addgene (tool)

RRID:SCR_002037

Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.

Allen Mouse Brain Common Coordinate Framework (tool)

RRID:SCR_020999

3D reference atlas to use with online datasets or as standalone resources. Can be used to analyze, visualize, and integrate multimodal and multiscale datasets in 3D. Intensity and shape population average template brain serves as basis of reference space and coordinate system. Average was constructed at 10 um voxel resolution by interpolating high resolution serial two photon tomography images from young adult C57BL/6J mice. Using multimodal reference data, entire brain was directly parcellated in 3D, labeling every voxel with brain structure from Allen Mouse Reference Atlas Ontology. In the 2017 release, the parcellation spanned 43 isocortical areas and their layers, 329 subcortical gray matter structures, 81 fiber tracts, and 8 ventricular structures.
