Research in our laboratory is primarily directed towards understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms of synaptic integration, synaptic plasticity, neuronal excitability and how dopamine modulates these fundamental processes. We have focused our attention on neurons and synapses in the prefrontal cortex, an area of the brain that plays an important role in working memory, planning and emotions. Prefrontal cortex is also of interest because this brain region and its interaction with the neurotransmitter dopamine are strongly implicated in some psychiatric diseases (e.g. schizophrenia). Our experimental methods include local and rapid application of neurotransmitters (glutamate & dopamine), electrophysiology (patch-clamp recordings), fast simultaneous multi-site imaging of the dendritic tree (calcium-sensitive dyes & voltage-sensitive dyes), calcium imaging using genetically-encoded calcium indicators (e.g. GCaMP6), genetically-encoded voltage indicators (VSFP Butterfly, Arclight, ASAP1-3 and Archon1) computer simulations (NEURON), neuron tracing and immunolabeling.

Dopamine drugs that block dopaminergic receptors have been shown to alleviate some symptoms in schizophrenia. On the other hand, drugs that stimulate dopamine receptors produce schizophrenic symptoms in healthy people. These two facts have prompted scientist to postulate that neurotransmitter dopamine is intimately related to higher psychic functions (understanding, planning, and interacting with others). Several decades ago experiments in non-human primates have shown that optimal dopaminergic transmission is absolutely necessary for normal cognitive function (Brozoski et al., 1979). In spite an extensive research effort that lasted for over 25 years, it is still not clear how exactly the release of dopamine affects neuronal networks and individual nerve cells. We are investigating the cellular effects of dopamine-receptor activation in the mammalian cortex. We have recently used fluorescence imaging techniques and patch-clamp recordings to analyze AP-evoked and glutamate-evoked influx of calcium ions into different parts of the pyramidal dendritic tree. We are currently measuring how dopamine receptor stimulations change dendritic calcium concentration. Calcium ions are important messengers that link electrical and biochemical processes in the central nervous system. We hope that these investigations will enhance our understanding of the brain function and explain disturbances in brain function which lead to schizophrenia.

Potential projects:

Dendritic excitability. We use whole-cell patch electrode recording from cell body at the same time as optical voltage imaging from dendrite to measure backpropagating action potentials and locally generated dendritic spikes. We feed data into computational models to arrive at comprehensive descriptions of dendritic functional organization and signal transfer from dendrite to axon in different cell types.

Genetically-encoded voltage indicators (GEVIs). GEVIs such as (VSFP Butterfly 1.2, Arclight, ASAP1-3, Archon1 and other) are promising experimental tools for studying brain circuits in health and diseases. We have used GEVIs in HEK293 cells, primary culture neurons and brain slices.

Dopaminergic modulation of neuronal excitability. Dopamine is synthesized in neurons whose cell bodies are located in the brain stem. One group of dopamine-producing neurons (ventral tegmental area) sends their long axons to the prefrontal cortex. Electron microscope studies in monkey and human clearly demonstrate that dopamine synaptic contacts onto cortical neurons are located almost exclusively on the distal dendrites and spines of distal dendrites. What is the functional significance of glutamate-dopamine ultrastructural juxtaposition? Why is it necessary to have a dopamine release site right next to the glutamate release site, on the same dendritic spine? Is dopamine involved in the precise control of the excitatory glutamatergic synapse? The level of prefrontal cortex dopamine is critical for modulating normal cognitive/behavioral processes. One important hypothesis is that deviations from the critical levels can severely disrupt cognitive processes and result in mental disorders such as schizophrenia. At present, it is not known how dopamine interacts with prefrontal cortex neural circuits. We are using in vitro experimental methods to study how dopamine affects glutamate-evoked dendritic membrane potentials. Distal dendritic regions of thin dendrites, where the interaction between glutamatergic and dopaminergic signals actually takes place, are difficult to probe with glass electrodes. In order to measure directly the dendritic response to glutamatergic excitation we use optical recording techniques. Optical methods adopted in our laboratory are based on intracellularly applied calcium-sensitive and voltage-sensitive dyes.
