Enhanced multiple vibrational resonances by Na+ and K+ dynamics in a neuron model.

ABSTRACT: Some neuronal receptors perceive external input in the form of hybrid periodic signals. The signal detection may be based on the mechanism of vibrational resonance, in which a system's response to the low frequency signal can become optimal by an appropriate choice of the vibration amplitude of HFS. The vibrational resonance effect is investigated in a neuron model in which the intra- and extra-cellular potassium and sodium concentrations are allowed to evolve temporally, depending on ion currents, Na(+)-K(+) pumps, glial buffering, and ion diffusion. Our results reveal that, compared to the vibrational resonances in the model with constant ion concentrations, the significantly enhanced vibrational multi-resonances can be observed for the single neuron system where the potassium and sodium ion concentrations vary temporally. Thus, in contradiction to a popular view that ion concentrations dynamics play little role in signal detection, we indicate that the neuron's response to an external subthreshold signal can be largely improved by sodium and potassium dynamics.

An enhanced genetic model of relapsed IGH-translocated multiple myeloma evolutionary dynamics.

Project description:Most patients with multiple myeloma (MM) die from progressive disease after relapse. To advance our understanding of MM evolution mechanisms, we performed whole-genome sequencing of 80 IGH-translocated tumour-normal newly diagnosed pairs and 24 matched relapsed tumours from the Myeloma XI trial. We identify multiple events as potentially important for survival and therapy-resistance at relapse including driver point mutations (e.g., TET2), translocations (MAP3K14), lengthened telomeres, and increased genomic instability (e.g., 17p deletions). Despite heterogeneous mutational processes contributing to relapsed mutations across MM subtypes, increased AID/APOBEC activity is particularly associated with shorter progression time to relapse, and contributes to higher mutational burden at relapse. In addition, we identify three enhanced major clonal evolution patterns of MM relapse, independent of treatment strategies and molecular karyotypes, questioning the viability of "evolutionary herding" approach in treating drug-resistant MM. Our data show that MM relapse is associated with acquisition of new mutations and clonal selection, and suggest APOBEC enzymes among potential targets for therapy-resistant MM.

Ultrafast Dynamics of Multiple Plexcitons in Colloidal Nanomaterials: The Mediating Action of Plasmon Resonances and Dark States.

Project description:Plexcitons, that is, mixed plasmon-exciton states, are currently gaining broad interest to control the flux of energy at the nanoscale. Several promising properties of plexcitonic materials have already been revealed, but the debate about their ultrafast dynamic properties is still vibrant. Here, pump-probe spectroscopy is used to characterize the ultrafast dynamics of colloidal nanohybrids prepared by coupling gold nanoparticles and porphyrin dyes, where one or two sets of plexcitonic resonances can be selectively activated. We found that these dynamics are strongly affected by the presence of a reservoir of states including plasmon resonances and dark states. The time constants regulating the plexciton relaxations are significantly longer than the typical values found in the literature and can be modulated over more than 1 order of magnitude, opening possible interesting perspectives to modify rates of chemically relevant molecular processes.

Second type of criticality in the brain uncovers rich multiple-neuron dynamics.

Project description:Cortical networks that have been found to operate close to a critical point exhibit joint activations of large numbers of neurons. However, in motor cortex of the awake macaque monkey, we observe very different dynamics: massively parallel recordings of 155 single-neuron spiking activities show weak fluctuations on the population level. This a priori suggests that motor cortex operates in a noncritical regime, which in models, has been found to be suboptimal for computational performance. However, here, we show the opposite: The large dispersion of correlations across neurons is the signature of a second critical regime. This regime exhibits a rich dynamical repertoire hidden from macroscopic brain signals but essential for high performance in such concepts as reservoir computing. An analytical link between the eigenvalue spectrum of the dynamics, the heterogeneity of connectivity, and the dispersion of correlations allows us to assess the closeness to the critical point.

Imaging high-frequency voltage dynamics in multiple neuron classes of behaving mammals.

Project description:Fluorescent genetically encoded voltage indicators report transmembrane potentials of targeted cell-types. However, voltage-imaging instrumentation has lacked the sensitivity to track spontaneous or evoked high-frequency voltage oscillations in neural populations. Here we describe two complementary TEMPO voltage-sensing technologies that capture neural oscillations up to ~100 Hz. Fiber-optic TEMPO achieves ~10-fold greater sensitivity than prior photometry systems, allows hour-long recordings, and monitors two neuron-classes per fiber-optic probe in freely moving mice. With it, we uncovered cross-frequency-coupled theta- and gamma-range oscillations and characterized excitatory-inhibitory neural dynamics during hippocampal ripples and visual cortical processing. The TEMPO mesoscope images voltage activity in two cell-classes across a ~8-mm-wide field-of-view in head-fixed animals. In awake mice, it revealed sensory-evoked excitatory-inhibitory neural interactions and traveling gamma and 3-7 Hz waves in the visual cortex, and previously unreported propagation directions for hippocampal theta and beta waves. These technologies have widespread applications probing diverse oscillations and neuron-type interactions in healthy and diseased brains.

Dual-polarity voltage imaging of the concurrent dynamics of multiple neuron types.

Project description:Genetically encoded fluorescent voltage indicators are ideally suited to reveal the millisecond-scale interactions among and between targeted cell populations. However, current indicators lack the requisite sensitivity for in vivo multipopulation imaging. We describe next-generation green and red voltage sensors, Ace-mNeon2 and VARNAM2, and their reverse response-polarity variants pAce and pAceR. Our indicators enable 0.4- to 1-kilohertz voltage recordings from >50 spiking neurons per field of view in awake mice and ~30-minute continuous imaging in flies. Using dual-polarity multiplexed imaging, we uncovered brain state-dependent antagonism between neocortical somatostatin-expressing (SST+) and vasoactive intestinal peptide-expressing (VIP+) interneurons and contributions to hippocampal field potentials from cell ensembles with distinct axonal projections. By combining three mutually compatible indicators, we performed simultaneous triple-population imaging. These approaches will empower investigations of the dynamic interplay between neuronal subclasses at single-spike resolution.

Vibrational spectroscopy of metal methanesulfonates: M?=?Na, Cs, Cu, Ag, Cd.

Project description:In this work, we have used a combination of vibrational spectroscopy (infrared, Raman and inelastic neutron scattering) and periodic density functional theory to investigate six metal methanesulfonate compounds that exhibit four different modes of complexation of the methanesulfonate ion: ionic, monodentate, bidentate and pentadentate. We found that the transition energies of the modes associated with the methyl group (C-H stretches and deformations, methyl rock and torsion) are essentially independent of the mode of coordination. The SO3 modes in the Raman spectra also show little variation. In the infrared spectra, there is a clear distinction between ionic (i.e. not coordinated) and coordinated forms of the methanesulfonate ion. This is manifested as a splitting of the asymmetric S-O stretch modes of the SO3 moiety. Unfortunately, no further differentiation between the various modes of coordination: unidentate, bidentate etc?…?is possible with the compounds examined. While it is likely that such a distinction could be made, this will require a much larger dataset of compounds for which both structural and spectroscopic data are available than that available here.

Plasmonic nanosensor based on multiple independently tunable Fano resonances.

Project description:A novel refractive index nanosensor with compound structures is proposed in this paper. It consists of three different kinds of resonators and two stubs which are side-coupled to a metal-dielectric-metal (MDM) waveguide. By utilizing numerical investigation with the finite element method (FEM), the simulation results show that the transmission spectrum of the nanosensor has as many as five sharp Fano resonance peaks. Due to their different resonance mechanisms, each resonance peak can be independently tuned by adjusting the corresponding parameters of the structure. In addition, the sensitivity of the nanosensor is found to be up to 1900 nm/RIU. For practical application, a legitimate combination of various different components, such as T-shaped, ring, and split-ring cavities, has been proposed which dramatically reduces the nanosensor dimensions without sacrificing performance. These design concepts pave the way for the construction of compact on-chip plasmonic structures, which can be widely applied to nanosensors, optical splitters, filters, optical switches, nonlinear photonic and slow-light devices.

Graphene Multiple Fano Resonances Based on Asymmetric Hybrid Metamaterial.

Project description:We theoretically investigate multiple Fano resonances in an asymmetric hybrid graphene-metal metamaterial. The multiple Fano resonances emerge from the coupling of the plasmonic narrow bonding and antibonding modes supported by an in-plane graphene nanoribbon dimer with the broad magnetic resonance mode supported by a gold split-ring resonator. It is found that the Fano resonant mode with its corresponding dark mode of the antibonding mode in the in-plane graphene nanoribbon dimer is only achieved by structural symmetry breaking. The multiple Fano resonances can be tailored by tuning the structural parameters and Fermi levels. Active control of the multiple Fano resonances enables the proposed metamaterial to be widely applied in optoelectronic devices such as tunable sensors, switches, and filters.

Tailored Nanoscale Plasmon-Enhanced Vibrational Electron Spectroscopy.

Project description:Atomic vibrations and phonons are an excellent source of information on nanomaterials that we can access through a variety of methods including Raman scattering, infrared spectroscopy, and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS). In the presence of a plasmon local field, vibrations are strongly modified and, in particular, their dipolar strengths are highly enhanced, thus rendering Raman scattering and infrared spectroscopy extremely sensitive techniques. Here, we experimentally demonstrate that the interaction between a relativistic electron and vibrational modes in nanostructures is fundamentally modified in the presence of plasmons. We finely tune the energy of surface plasmons in metallic nanowires in the vicinity of hexagonal boron nitride, making it possible to monitor and disentangle both strong phonon-plasmon coupling and plasmon-driven phonon enhancement at the nanometer scale. Because of the near-field character of the electron beam-phonon interaction, optically inactive phonon modes are also observed. Besides increasing our understanding of phonon physics, our results hold great potential for investigating sensing mechanisms and chemistry in complex nanomaterials down to the molecular level.

Sensory neuron-derived Na<sub>V</sub>1.7 contributes to dorsal horn neuron excitability.

Project description:Expression of the voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.7 in sensory neurons is required for pain sensation. We examined the role of NaV1.7 in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord using an epitope-tagged NaV1.7 knock-in mouse. Immuno-electron microscopy showed the presence of NaV1.7 in dendrites of superficial dorsal horn neurons, despite the absence of mRNA. Rhizotomy of L5 afferent nerves lowered the levels of NaV1.7 in the dorsal horn. Peripheral nervous system-specific NaV1.7 null mutant mice showed central deficits, with lamina II dorsal horn tonic firing neurons more than halved and single spiking neurons more than doubled. NaV1.7 blocker PF05089771 diminished excitability in dorsal horn neurons but had no effect on NaV1.7 null mutant mice. These data demonstrate an unsuspected functional role of primary afferent neuron-generated NaV1.7 in dorsal horn neurons and an expression pattern that would not be predicted by transcriptomic analysis.
