Journal ArticleDOI
Long-range and local circuits for top-down modulation of visual cortex processing
Siyu Zhang,Min Xu,Tsukasa Kamigaki,Johnny Phong Hoang Do,Wei-Cheng Chang,Sean Jenvay,Kazunari Miyamichi,Liqun Luo,Yang Dan +8 more
TL;DR: It is found that the cingulate (Cg) region of the mouse frontal cortex powerfully influences sensory processing in the primary visual cortex (V1) through long-range projections that activate local γ-aminobutyric acid–ergic (GABAergic) circuits.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Genetically Encoded Fluorescent Sensor Enables Rapid and Specific Detection of Dopamine in Flies, Fish, and Mice.

Kreitzer,Guohong Cui,Yulong Li,Yulong Li,Yulong Li +27 more
TL;DR: The development of genetically encoded GPCR-activation-based-DA (GRABDA) sensors enable spatiotemporally precise measurements of DA dynamics in a variety of model organisms while exhibiting complex behaviors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fast modulation of visual perception by basal forebrain cholinergic neurons
Lucas Pinto,Michael J. Goard,Michael J. Goard,Daniel Estandian,Min Xu,Alex C. Kwan,Seung-Hee Lee,Thomas C. Harrison,Guoping Feng,Yang Dan +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that basal forebrain cholinergic neurons rapidly regulate cortical activity and visual perception in awake, behaving mice, and optogenetic activation of the cholinergy neurons or their V1 axon terminals improved performance of a visual discrimination task on a trial-by-trial basis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Basal forebrain circuit for sleep-wake control
Min Xu,Shinjae Chung,Siyu Zhang,Peng Zhong,Chenyan Ma,Wei-Cheng Chang,Brandon Weissbourd,Noriaki Sakai,Liqun Luo,Seiji Nishino,Yang Dan +10 more
TL;DR: Recordings from channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2)-tagged neurons revealed that three BF cell types, cholinergic, glutamatergic and parvalbumin-positive (PV+) GABAergic neurons, were more active during wakefulness and rapid eye movement (REM) sleep than during non-REM sleep, and activation of each cell type rapidly induced wakefulness.
