Research Abstract |
Single-cell based neural activity recording from the suprachismatic nucleus is important to understand the resetting mechanism of circadian rhythm in mammals. We performed single-cell neural activity recording from living rat or mouse suprachiasmatic nucleus. We succeeded to record the single-cell neural activity responded to the light in mice and rats. It must be useful strategy to elucidate the resetting mechanisms in mammalian circadian clock.
