主 题:Trans-monosynaptic Retrograde Anterograde Viral tool Neural circuit Optogenetics Electrophysiology
摘 要:Behavioral studies play a crucial role in unraveling the mechanisms underlying brain *** advances in optogenetics,neuronal typing and labeling,and circuit tracing have facilitated the dissection of the neural circuitry involved in various important *** identification of monosynaptic connections,both upstream and downstream of specific neurons,serves as the foundation for understanding complex neural circuits and studying behavioral ***,the practical implementation and mechanistic understanding of monosynaptic connection tracing techniques and functional identification remain challenging,particularly for inexperienced *** application of these methods and misinterpretation of results can impede experimental progress and lead to erroneous *** this paper,we present a comprehensive description of the principles,specific operational details,and key steps involved in tracing anterograde and retrograde monosynaptic *** outline the process of functionally identifying monosynaptic connections through the integration of optogenetics and electrophysiological techniques,providing practical guidance for researchers.
