Studies in Cx40-GCaMP2 mice, which express calcium biosensor GCaMP2 in the endothelium under connexin 40 promoter, have identified the unique properties of endothelial calcium signals. However, Cx40-GCaMP2 mouse is associated with a narrow dynamic range and lack of signal in the venous endothelium. Recent studies have proposed many GCaMPs (GCaMP5/6/7/8) with improved properties, although their performance in endothelium-specific calcium studies is not known. We characterized a newly developed mouse line that constitutively expresses GCaMP8 in the endothelium under the VE-Cadherin (Cdh5-GCaMP8) promoter. Calcium signals through endothelial IP3 receptors and TRPV4 ion channels were recorded in mesenteric arteries and veins from Cdh5-GCaMP8 and Cx40-GCaMP2 mice. Cdh5-GCaMP8 mice showed lower baseline fluorescence intensity, higher dynamic range, and higher amplitudes of individual calcium signals than Cx40-GCaMP2 mice. Importantly, Cdh5-GCaMP8 mice enabled the first recordings of discrete calcium signals in the intact venous endothelium and revealed striking differences in IP3 receptor and TRPV4 channel calcium signals between mesenteric arteries and veins. Our findings suggest that Cdh5-GCaMP8 mice represent significant improvements in dynamic range, sensitivity for low-intensity signals, and the ability to record calcium signals in venous endothelium.
