Abstract

Electroporation is an efficient method of transferring charged macromolecules into living cells in order to study their morphology, function, and connectivity within neuronal networks. Labeling cells with fluorophore-coupled macromolecules can be used to trace projections of whole neuronal ensembles, as well as the fine morphology of single cells. Here, we present a protocol to visualize pre- and postsynaptic components of a sensory relay synapse in the brain, using the olfactory system of Xenopus laevis tadpoles as a model. We apply bulk electroporation to trace projections of receptor neurons from the nose to the brain, and single cell electroporation to visualize the morphology of their synaptic target cells, the mitral-tufted cells. Labeling the receptor neurons with a calcium-sensitive dye allows us to record stimulus-induced presynaptic input to the dendrites of the postsynaptic cells via functional calcium imaging.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 September 2018.
All research outputs
#14,424,488
of 23,102,082 outputs
Outputs from Methods in molecular biology
#4,242
of 13,208 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#240,896
of 442,691 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Methods in molecular biology
#432
of 1,499 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,102,082 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 13,208 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 64% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 442,691 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 42nd percentile – i.e., 42% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1,499 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 66% of its contemporaries.
