Research Abstract |
It has been thought that acquisition, retension and recall of memories are mediated by activity of groups of neurons that are formed and reorganized by learning and experience. In this study, we imaged hippocampal CA1 neuronal circuit activity in head-fixed mice performing spatial behavior in virtual reality by using two-photon deep brain imaging of transgenic mice expressing genetically-encoded calcium indicators in the brain. We computationally extracted activity time-series of hundreds of neurons from images and confirmed that a subpopulation of CA1 pyramidal neurons exhibited virtual place-specific activity. We also observed that neurons with different virtual place fields were anatomically intermingled each other in hippocampal CA1 local circuits.
