Summary: In vivo whole-cell recording, when combined with morphological characterization after biocytin labeling, is a powerful technique to study subthreshold synaptic processing in cell-type-identified neuronal populations. Here, we describe steps for performing whole-cell recordings in the superior colliculus of urethane-anesthetized mice, a major visual processing region in the rodent brain. We detail two types of visual stimulation techniques: full-field light-emitting diode (LED) flashes and visual stimuli shown on monitors. While we focus on superior colliculus, this protocol is applicable to other brain areas. : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics. |
