タイトル Principal component analysis of odor coding at the level of third-order olfactory neurons in Drosophila.
ジャーナル Genes Cells
Abstract Olfactory information in Drosophila is conveyed by projection neurons from olfactory sensory neurons to Kenyon cells (KCs) in the mushroom body (MB). A subset of KCs responds to a given odor molecule, and the combination of these KCs represents a part of the neuronal olfactory code. KCs are also thought to function as coincidence detectors for memory formation, associating odor information with a coincident punishment or reward stimulus. Associative conditioning has been shown to modify KC output. This plasticity occurs in the vertical lobes of MBs containing α/α' branches of KCs, which is shown by measuring the average Ca(2+) levels in the branch of each lobe. We devised a method to quantitatively describe the population activity patterns recorded from axons of >1000 KCs at the α/α' branches using two-photon Ca(2+) imaging. Principal component analysis of the population activity patterns clearly differentiated the responses to distinct odors.
