  text: Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of living brain tissue down to an individual
    synapse level would create opportunities for decoding the dynamics and structure–function
    relationships of the brain’s complex and dense information processing network;
    however, this has been hindered by insufficient 3D resolution, inadequate signal-to-noise
    ratio and prohibitive light burden in optical imaging, whereas electron microscopy
    is inherently static. Here we solved these challenges by developing an integrated
    optical/machine-learning technology, LIONESS (live information-optimized nanoscopy
    enabling saturated segmentation). This leverages optical modifications to stimulated
    emission depletion microscopy in comprehensively, extracellularly labeled tissue
    and previous information on sample structure via machine learning to simultaneously
    achieve isotropic super-resolution, high signal-to-noise ratio and compatibility
    with living tissue. This allows dense deep-learning-based instance segmentation
    and 3D reconstruction at a synapse level, incorporating molecular, activity and
    morphodynamic information. LIONESS opens up avenues for studying the dynamic functional
    (nano-)architecture of living brain tissue.

  text: Complex wiring between neurons underlies the information-processing network
    enabling all brain functions, including cognition and memory. For understanding
    how the network is structured, processes information, and changes over time, comprehensive
    visualization of the architecture of living brain tissue with its cellular and
    molecular components would open up major opportunities. However, electron microscopy
    (EM) provides nanometre-scale resolution required for full <jats:italic>in-silico</jats:italic>
    reconstruction<jats:sup>1–5</jats:sup>, yet is limited to fixed specimens and
    static representations. Light microscopy allows live observation, with super-resolution
    approaches<jats:sup>6–12</jats:sup> facilitating nanoscale visualization, but
    comprehensive 3D-reconstruction of living brain tissue has been hindered by tissue
    photo-burden, photobleaching, insufficient 3D-resolution, and inadequate signal-to-noise
    ratio (SNR). Here we demonstrate saturated reconstruction of living brain tissue.
    We developed an integrated imaging and analysis technology, adapting stimulated
    emission depletion (STED) microscopy<jats:sup>6,13</jats:sup> in extracellularly
    labelled tissue<jats:sup>14</jats:sup> for high SNR and near-isotropic resolution.
    Centrally, a two-stage deep-learning approach leveraged previously obtained information
    on sample structure to drastically reduce photo-burden and enable automated volumetric
    reconstruction down to single synapse level. Live reconstruction provides unbiased
    analysis of tissue architecture across time in relation to functional activity
    and targeted activation, and contextual understanding of molecular labelling.
    This adoptable technology will facilitate novel insights into the dynamic functional
    architecture of living brain tissue.

  text: The mammalian hippocampal formation (HF) plays a key role in several higher
    brain functions, such as spatial coding, learning and memory. Its simple circuit
    architecture is often viewed as a trisynaptic loop, processing input originating
    from the superficial layers of the entorhinal cortex (EC) and sending it back
    to its deeper layers. Here, we show that excitatory neurons in layer 6b of the
    mouse EC project to all sub-regions comprising the HF and receive input from the
    CA1, thalamus and claustrum. Furthermore, their output is characterized by unique
    slow-decaying excitatory postsynaptic currents capable of driving plateau-like
    potentials in their postsynaptic targets. Optogenetic inhibition of the EC-6b
    pathway affects spatial coding in CA1 pyramidal neurons, while cell ablation impairs
    not only acquisition of new spatial memories, but also degradation of previously
    acquired ones. Our results provide evidence of a functional role for cortical
    layer 6b neurons in the adult brain.

abstract:
- lang: eng
  text: To understand the function of neuronal circuits, it is crucial to disentangle
    the connectivity patterns within the network. However, most tools currently used
    to explore connectivity have low throughput, low selectivity, or limited accessibility.
    Here, we report the development of an improved packaging system for the production
    of the highly neurotropic RVdGenvA-CVS-N2c rabies viral vectors, yielding titers
    orders of magnitude higher with no background contamination, at a fraction of
    the production time, while preserving the efficiency of transsynaptic labeling.
    Along with the production pipeline, we developed suites of ‘starter’ AAV and bicistronic
    RVdG-CVS-N2c vectors, enabling retrograde labeling from a wide range of neuronal
    populations, tailored for diverse experimental requirements. We demonstrate the
    power and flexibility of the new system by uncovering hidden local and distal
    inhibitory connections in the mouse hippocampal formation and by imaging the functional
    properties of a cortical microcircuit across weeks. Our novel production pipeline
    provides a convenient approach to generate new rabies vectors, while our toolkit
    flexibly and efficiently expands the current capacity to label, manipulate and
    image the neuronal activity of interconnected neuronal circuits in vitro and in
    vivo.
