Optogenetic stimulation of VIP-expressing cells in mouse visual cortex causes short-latency inhibition and longer latency disinhibition of the local neural circuit.

(A–F) Response of example cells classified as VIP (A,B), Inhibited (C,D) and Activated (E,F). (G) Data were recorded in visual cortex from 5 Vip-Cre mice at the Allen Brain Institute. Cells were only included if the clustering quality was sufficient (1707 cells total). A ZETA-test included cells that were modulated within (–0.5, + 0.5 s) after optogenetic stimulation (N = 1144 cells). IFR peak- and trough-latency was computed and cells were discarded if their peak was earlier than 1 ms after optogenetic stimulation onset. Remaining cells were classified as VIP (N = 13), Inhibited (N = 59), Activated (N = 137), or Other (N = 700). (H) Heat map showing normalized firing rate of VIP (top), Inhibited (middle), and Activated (bottom) cells. (I) Mean ± SEM of PSTH (2.5 ms bin size) over all VIP (green), Inhibited (orange), Activated (yellow), and Other (gray) cells. (J) Inhibited cells showed significantly lower mean IFR-peak latencies after optogenetic stimulation than Activated cells (Inh: 17.4 ms; Act: 23.0 ms; Mann-Whitney U-test, p = 5.1 × 10–7).
