Graded M-Cell Lateral Dendrite Ca2+ Signals Reflect Startle Probability (A) Increasing stimulus intensity increases activity at the M-cell lateral dendrite (white dashed line), with no change in somatic (blue dashed line) activity unless a startle is performed (scale bar, 10µm). (B) Representative ΔF/F0 traces from a single M-cell show graded lateral dendrite responses. Stimuli were calibrated with an accelerometer, with voltage outputs converted to dB using the formula dB = 20 log (V/0.775). (C) Grouped ΔF/F0 data reveal all-or-none somatic activity (blue bars) in startles versus non-startles regardless of stimulus intensity and graded lateral dendrite activity (white bars; p < 0.05, p < 0.001, p < 0.0001, one-way ANOVA with Dunnett?s multiple comparison test). Error bars indicate SEM. (D) Scatterplot of peak lateral dendrite ΔF/F0 with startle events in red and no startle events in white. Gray bar indicates the lateral dendrite activation threshold for startle behavior. |
