Methods for one-photon fluorescent imaging of calcium dynamics can capture the activity of hundreds of neurons across large fields of view at a low equipment complexity and cost. In contrast to two-photon methods, however, one-photon methods suffer from higher levels of crosstalk from neuropil, resulting in a decreased signal-to-noise ratio and artifactual correlations of neural activity. We address this problem by engineering cell-body-targeted variants of the fluorescent calcium indicators GCaMP6f and GCaMP7f. We screened fusions of GCaMP to natural, as well as artificial, peptides and identified fusions that localized GCaMP to within 50 μm of the cell body of neurons in mice and larval zebrafish. One-photon imaging of soma-targeted GCaMP in dense neural circuits reported fewer artifactual spikes from neuropil, an increased signal-to-noise ratio, and decreased artifactual correlation across neurons. Thus, soma-targeting of fluorescent calcium indicators facilitates usage of simple, powerful, one-photon methods for imaging neural calcium dynamics.

通过细胞体靶向钙指示剂对密集神经群体进行精确钙成像。

钙动力学的单光子荧光成像方法可以以较低的设备复杂性和成本捕获大视野中数百个神经元的活动。然而,与双光子方法相比,单光子方法受到来自神经纤维网的更高水平的串扰,导致信噪比降低和神经活动的人为相关性。我们通过设计荧光钙指示剂 GCaMP6f 和 GCaMP7f 的细胞体靶向变体来解决这个问题。我们筛选了 GCaMP 与天然和人工肽的融合,并确定了将 GCaMP 定位到小鼠和斑马鱼幼虫神经元细胞体 50 μm 内的融合。密集神经回路中以胞体为目标的 GCaMP 的单光子成像报告显示,来自神经纤维网的人为尖峰更少,信噪比增加,并减少神经元之间的人为相关性。因此,荧光钙指示剂的胞体靶向促进了使用简单、强大的单光子方法对神经钙动力学进行成像。
