Circadian- and light-dependent regulation of resting membrane potential and spontaneous action potential firing of Drosophila circadian pacemaker neurons.

Journal of neurophysiology - 1 Feb 2008

Sheeba Vasu, Gu Huaiyu, Sharma Vijay K, O'Dowd Diane K, Holmes Todd C

Abstract excerpt

The ventral lateral neurons (LNvs) of adult Drosophila brain express oscillating clock proteins and regulate circadian behavior. Whole cell current-clamp recordings of large LNvs in freshly dissected Drosophila whole brain preparations reveal two spontaneous activity patterns that correlate with...
