Bioluminescence imaging of Arc expression enables detection of activity-dependent and plastic changes in the visual cortex of adult mice

Abstract: Induction of the activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein gene (Arc), one of the immediate early genes, in the brain correlates with various sensory processes, natural behaviors, and pathological conditions. Arc is also involved in synaptic plasticity during development. Thus, in vivo monitoring of Arc expression is useful for the analysis of physiological and pathological conditions in the brain. Recently, in vivo imaging of Arc expression using various green fluorescent protein-based probes has bee… Show more

“…Acute treatment with KA is often carried out to produce a neurodegenerative disease model using laboratory animals and also induces Arc expression through synaptic activation. We reported the continuous increase in Arc - Luc expression level over 6 h after KA injection at the adult stage [11]. Here, we extend the examination of the temporal pattern of KA-induced Arc expression in the Arc - Luc Tg HL mice at 4 weeks of age (Fig.…”

“…Previously, we successfully generated Arc - Luc Tg mice for the BLI of Arc expression [11]. However, the genetic background of the Arc - Luc Tg mice is C57BL/6, and the black fur and skin pigmentation of this strain attenuate photon emission at various developmental stages (Fig.…”
