Multimodal fast optical interrogation of neural circuitry

TL;DR: An archaeal light-driven chloride pump from Natronomonas pharaonis is identified and developed for temporally precise optical inhibition of neural activity and forms a complete system for multimodal, high-speed, genetically targeted, all-optical interrogation of living neural circuits.

Multimodal fast optical interrogation of neural circuitry

TL;DR: In this paper, an archaeal light-driven chloride pump (NpHR) was developed for temporally precise optical inhibition of neural activity, allowing either knockout of single action potentials, or sustained blockade of spiking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Light Activation of Channelrhodopsin-2 in Excitable Cells of Caenorhabditis elegans Triggers Rapid Behavioral Responses

TL;DR: Channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) is employed, a directly light-gated cation channel from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, in excitable cells of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, to trigger specific behaviors, simply by illumination, in neurons and muscles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Loss of PTEN facilitates HIF-1-mediated gene expression

TL;DR: It is proposed that loss of PTEN during malignant progression contributes to tumor expansion through the deregulation of Akt activity and HIF-1-regulated gene expression.
