Anterior claustrum cells are responsive during behavior but not passive sensory stimulation

Abstract: The claustrum is uniquely positioned to communicate with almost all higher-order cortical areas through widespread and reciprocal anatomical projections, yet the in vivo functional properties of claustrum neurons are not well understood. Here we use microendoscope imaging in mice to measure activity in populations of genetically-labelled Gnb4+ claustrum neurons. We find that only a small fraction of cells in the anterior claustrum are responsive to visual or auditory stimuli when delivered under passive yet wa… Show more

“…Moreover, we found CLA axons were frequently responsive during stimulation, implying the CLA actively participates during the processing of sensory information. This finding contrasts with recent studies in mice (49, 50) in which CLA neurons were infrequently responsive to sensory stimulation in vivo . The disparity between these results may be explained by methodological differences.…”

“…We thought that these responses may instead be related to attention, salience, or motor processes occurring as a result of the sensory stimulation, motivating our use of somatosensory and auditory stimuli despite weak direct inputs from these cortices, documented elsewhere 26,27 . The large proportion of activated axons contrasts with recent studies in mice 27,61 in which CLA neurons were infrequently responsive to sensory stimulation in vivo. The disparity between these results may be explained by methodological differences.…”

“…The four different stimulation patterns were as follows: a single 5 ms pulse, a series of 5 ms pulses at 20 Hz or 40 Hz for 500 ms (10 and 20 pulses, respectively), and a prolonged step of 500 ms duration. The 5 ms pulse is a similar stimulation pattern to previous studies (Jackson et al, 2018;Narikiyo et al, 2020), while the 500 ms stimulation reflects the observation that CLA cells can become active for prolonged periods of time (100-500 ms) in a behavioral context (Chevée et al, 2021;Ollerenshaw et al, 2021). On average, we estimate that we stimulated 30-75% of CLA volume (Figure S1).…”
