Abstract:Obtaining fine neuron morphology and connections data is extraordinarily useful in understanding the brain’s functionality. Golgi staining is a widely used method for revealing neuronal morphology. However, Golgi-Cox-stained tissue is difficult to image in three dimensions and lacks cell-type specificity, limiting its use in neuronal circuit studies. Here, we describe an expansion-based method for rapidly clearing Golgi-Cox-stained tissue. The results show that 1 mm thick Golgi-Cox-stained tissue can be cleare… Show more
