Retrograde labeling of Sp5C projection neurons was greater when injections were made in young adult animals.
Within Sp5C, rgAAV and AAV9 produced similar levels of projection-neuron labeling in superficial and deep regions.
For both serotypes, labeled Sp5C projection neurons were found bilaterally with a strong ipsilateral bias.
Cre-dependent recombination successfully enabled selective channelrhodopsin-2 expression in Sp5C projection neurons.
rgAAV and AAV9 produce strong Sp5C projection-neuron transduction and provide a basis for future study of Sp5C projection-neuron afferent and efferent functions.
Following unilateral PBN injections, both rgAAV and AAV9 retrogradely labeled many Sp5C projection neurons.
rgAAV and AAV9 were evaluated as viral serotypes for identifying and analyzing Sp5C projection neurons that project to the parabrachial nucleus.
