项目摘要
The brain uses the combined physiology of many cells to transform incoming sensory signals into internal
representations. This process is critical for the animal’s survival because it underlies the animal’s ability to identify
environmental cues and associate them with the condition of their situation. While sensory representation at the
somatic level is well-studied, exploration of this phenomenon at the synaptic level is lacking. This is a significant
gap in our understanding because individual presynaptic boutons of a single axon can be modulated
independently, and this variability likely affects learning and memory. Therefore, the objective of this proposal is
to expand the mechanistic understanding of the generation of a sensory signal at the presynaptic level and
evaluate its role in learning-related synaptic plasticity. Preliminary data suggests that this representational activity
may be variably tuned at the presynaptic level along a single axon. Based on this, the hypothesis of this proposal
is that representational presynaptic activity is subject to local modulation that shapes an individual synapse’s
susceptibility to plasticity. A fitting model for studying this phenomenon is that of olfactory processing in
Drosophila. Olfactory information is relayed to Kenyon cells (KCs) within the mushroom body (MB), the learning
and memory center of the insect brain. With a focus on individual KC axonal boutons, this proposal will explore
synaptic representation and subsequent learning-induced plasticity by pursuing the following aims: (1) Analyze
representational activity at the synaptic and somatic levels. (2) Determine the origin of local presynaptic
modulation. (3) Evaluate the link between presynaptic representational activity and susceptibility to synaptic
plasticity. This will be achieved using in vivo functional imaging and electrophysiology to study the odor response
at the presynaptic and somatic levels, respectively, and using cell type-specific manipulations of potential
sources of axoaxonic modulation, recently identified by the MB connectome. Completion of this project will further
reveal how the nervous system represents sensory information and modulates that information during learning.
This will contribute to the BRAIN Initiative’s long-term goal of understanding how sensory information gives rise
to higher-order processes, like learning and sensorimotor integration. This is accomplished by using “synthetic
strategies” that cross levels of biological hierarchy (from synapse to cell to circuit) to pursue the Initiative’s near-
term goal of observing the brain in action using genetic tools that enable visualization and intervention. The
proposal also bolsters the training of the next generation of neuroscientists by expanding the applicant’s technical
expertise and promoting the applicant’s intellectual development by supporting training in a rigorous and
collaborative environment that is led by a team of qualified advisors with diverse expertise. The sponsor’s
laboratory is situated at the interface of the University of North Carolina’s School of Medicine and College of Arts
and Sciences, and it is well-connected to the many Drosophila and neuroscience groups in North Carolina’s
Research Triangle, equipping the applicant with abundant resources for preparing for an independent career.

环境线索,并将它们与他们的情况相关联。虽然感官表征在
体细胞水平的研究已经很充分,但缺乏在突触水平对这种现象的探索。这是一个重大
因为单个轴突的单个突触前终扣可以被调节,
这种差异性可能会影响学习和记忆。因此,这项建议的目的是
扩大对突触前水平感觉信号产生的机械理解,
评估其在学习相关突触可塑性中的作用。初步数据表明,这种代表性活动
可以在突触前水平沿沿着单个轴突被调谐。基于此,本提案的假设
代表性的突触前活动受到局部调制,
可塑性的敏感性研究这一现象的一个合适模型是,
果蝇嗅觉信息被传递到蘑菇体(MB)内的凯尼恩细胞(KC),
和记忆中心。随着对单个KC轴突终扣的关注,本建议将探索
突触表征和随后的学习诱导的可塑性,追求以下目标:(1)分析
在突触和体细胞水平的代表性活动。(2)确定局部突触前神经元的起源
调变(3)评估突触前表征活动与突触敏感性之间的联系
可塑性这将通过使用体内功能成像和电生理学来研究气味反应来实现
分别在突触前和体细胞水平,并使用细胞类型特异性操作的潜力,
轴轴调制的来源,最近确定的MB连接体。该项目的完成将进一步
揭示了神经系统如何在学习过程中代表感官信息并调节这些信息。
这将有助于大脑计划的长期目标,即理解感官信息是如何产生
到更高级的过程,比如学习和感觉运动整合。这是通过使用“合成的
战略”,跨越生物层次的水平(从突触到细胞到电路),以追求该倡议的近,
长期目标是使用能够可视化和干预的遗传工具观察大脑的活动。的
