Abstract:The method of optogenetics has spread widely in neurobiology over the past 10 years and has found extensive application in various fields of this sciences. It allows to control and regulate cellular activity with high spatial and temporal resolution. In this study, optogenetic activation was applied to astrocytes expressing ChR2. Optogenetic stimulation parameters were determined, in which the frequency of spontaneous currents of hippocampal pyramidal neurons significantly changed. In the future, it is planned… Show more
