Figure Lengend Snippet: Expression of TRPM4 and TRPC3 channel mRNA in glutamatergic and glycinergic/GABAergic pre-BötC inspiratory neurons. A , Overview of experimental in vitro neonatal rat rhythmic slice preparation showing whole-cell patch-clamp recording from the pre-BötC inspiratory neurons and suction electrode recordings from hypoglossal (XII) nerves to monitor inspiratory activity. NAsc, semicompact division of nucleus ambiguus; V4, fourth ventricle. B , Two-photon single optical plane images of pre-BötC inspiratory neuron (arrow) targeted for whole-cell recording and subsequent harvesting of cytoplasm, showing Ca 2+ -sensitive dye (OGB) labeling ( B1 ) and Dodt structural image ( B2 ). B3 , Identification of inspiratory neuron by verifying that the Ca 2+ fluorescence signals in real time are synchronized with integrated inspiratory XII nerve activity (∫ XII). C1 , Current-clamp recording (upper traces) from excitatory pre-BötC inspiratory neuron in B illustrates inspiratory bursts synchronized with ∫ XII. Under voltage-clamp (lower traces), the same neuron exhibited rhythmic inward synaptic currents synchronized with ∫ XII. This neuron was shown to be excitatory (VgluT2-expressing) by post hoc single-cell RT-PCR (below). C2 , Current-clamp recording (upper traces) and voltage-clamp recording (lower traces) from inhibitory pre-BötC inspiratory neuron illustrating inspiratory bursts and rhythmic inward synaptic currents synchronized with ∫ XII. This neuron was shown to be inhibitory (co-expression of GlyT2 and GAD67 mRNA) by post hoc single-cell RT-PCR (see below). D , Representative electrophoresis gel generated by single-cell multiplex RT-PCR from mRNA in cytoplasm harvested during whole-cell recording from two electrophysiologically identified pre-BötC inspiratory neurons ( C1 and C2 ) in neonatal rat slices. In addition to cDNA probes for TRPM4 and TRPC3 channel mRNA, probes for vesicular glutamate transporter type 2 (VgluT2), glycine transporter type 2 (GlyT2), and glutamatic acid decarboxylase 67 (GAD67) mRNA were used to identify excitatory or inhibitory neuronal phenotypes, examples of which are shown. Expected numbers of base pairs (bp) for reaction products are indicated. Assays for both of these neurons had clean negative controls from “mock harvests” in the slice and appropriate positive controls from 100 pg total rat brain RNA run as RT template (not shown, see Materials and Methods).

C , Integrated inspiratory hypoglossal activity (∫ XII) and the spatially averaged field GCaMP6f fluorescence transients (Δ F ), quantified as F – F 0 , of the optical plane shown in A during control time, and 10 and 15 min after bath-application of 9-phenanthrol (50 µ m ). D , Inspiratory burst-wise correlations of the field fluorescence Δ F and ∫ XII amplitudes (XII Amp; colored dots), and their grouped averages (circles with error cross bars: mean values ± SEM), normalized to their control values, for time windows 5, 10, 15, and 20 min after 9-phenanthrol application.

A , Example of relationship between normalized pre-BötC peak field GCaMP6f ΔF and normalized individual inspiratory cell ΔF, 10 and 20 min after bath-applied 50 µ m 9-phenanthrol.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Time-dependent changes in the amplitude of integrated XII inspiratory burst activities (XII Amp) and the field GCaMP6f fluorescence transients (Δ F ) of the pre-BötC glutamatergic population after TRPM4, TRPC3, and I CAN inhibitors. A , Control experiments ( n = 5 mice) to test for possible photobleaching and time-dependent changes in population activity, in which calcium imaging was performed without any drug application with exactly the same protocol of image acquisition as the pharmacological experiments. The results (mean normalized values ± SEM) show that there were no significant changes in the pre-BötC field Δ F amplitude, XII Amp (normalized to control values), and normalized inspiratory burst frequency ( f R ). B , Group summary data (mean normalized values ± SEM) for 9-phenanthrol, Pyr3, and FFA ( n = 5, 5, and 4, respectively) shows reduction in both XII Amp and the pre-BötC field Δ F amplitude, while f R changed nonsignificantly after applying channel inhibitors in all cases. C , Time-dependent reductions of XII Amp and field Δ F amplitudes after drug application were positively correlated (solid lines: linear regression; Pearson linear correlation coefficient for 9-phenanthrol, Pyr3, and FFA: r = 0.864, 0.845, and 0.749, respectively). The linear regression on mean amplitude reduction between XII Amp and field Δ F for 9-phenanthrol, Pyr3, and FFA yielded corresponding linear models with slopes m = 0.859, 0.463, and 0.676, and intercepts b = 0.103, 0.499, and 0.277, respectively. Dashed lines represent the identity line.
