Cholinergic axons in visual cortex are activated during locomotion independent of visual stimuli.

(A) GCaMP6s was expressed by injecting an AAV2/5-hSyn1-FLEx-axon-GCaMP6s vector in basal forebrain of ChAT-IRES-Cre mice. We then imaged calcium activity of cholinergic axons projecting to visual cortex. (B) Example two-photon image of cholinergic axons in visual cortex. (C) Schematic of the virtual reality system. Mice were head-fixed on a spherical treadmill and surrounded by a toroidal screen on which we presented visual stimuli in different visuomotor conditions. (D) Example trace of the calcium activity of one cholinergic axon in visual cortex (red) and the corresponding locomotion velocity of the mouse (blue). (E) Average locomotion onset activity of all cholinergic axons (5048 axons in 14 mice), sorted by their average response during locomotion onset. (F) Average response of cholinergic axons to locomotion onset over all the cholinergic axons, of the data shown in E. Shading indicates SEM over axons. Due to SEM being very small, the shading is fully obscured by the red line. (G) As in F, but for grating onsets. Green shading marks the duration of grating presentation. (H) As in F, but for visual flow onset during the open loop condition. (I) As in F, but for visuomotor mismatch onset. Orange shading marks the duration of visuomotor mismatch. As mismatch events occur only during times of locomotion, and locomotion itself is a strong driver of cholinergic activity, we would expect to find an increase in cholinergic activity by chance at mismatch. To correct for this, we quantified the distribution of cholinergic activity on random triggers during locomotion (95% confidence interval (CI), gray shading). (J) Locomotion onset activity in different visuomotor conditions. (K) The fraction of cholinergic axons responsive to locomotion, grating, and visuomotor mismatch onset, quantified for each imaging site. Each datapoint is one imaging site. Boxes show 25th and 75th percentile, central mark is the median, and the whiskers extend to the most extreme data points not considered outliers. Dashed line marks chance level. n.s.: not significant; *p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p<0.001; see Supplementary file 1 for all statistical information.

Figure 1—figure supplement 1
Cholinergic axons in visual cortex were activated after layer 2/3 but before layer 5 visual cortex neurons.

(A) Distribution of time to first significant response after locomotion onset for cholinergic axons in visual cortex. Axons without any response to locomotion onset are omitted. (B) As in A, but for layer 2/3 neurons in visual cortex. (C) As in A, but for layer 5 neurons in visual cortex. (D) Nested bootstrap resampling of the distributions shown in A–C. Here and elsewhere, n.s.: not significant; *p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p<0.001; see Supplementary file 1 for all statistical information.

Activity in cholinergic axons was better explained by a binary locomotion state signal than by locomotion velocity.

(A) Average locomotion velocity profiles aligned to locomotion onset and offset. The isolated datapoint between the two traces is the average locomotion velocity over the locomotion bout. Shading marks SEM. Here and elsewhere, n.s.: not significant; *p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p<0.001; see Supplementary file 1 for all statistical information. (B) As in A, but for activity of all cholinergic axons in visual cortex, for the data shown in D. Shading marks SEM over axons. (C) Bout-by-bout correlation coefficient between the locomotion onset and offset changes for average cholinergic activity and locomotion velocity. Each datapoint is one imaging site. Boxes show 25th and 75th percentile, central mark is the median, and the whiskers extend to the most extreme data points not considered outliers. (D) Average onset and offset responses for all cholinergic axons sorted by strength of locomotion onset response. (E) Activity of cholinergic axons as a function of locomotion velocity. Shown are the hierarchical bootstrap estimates of the median (red dots) and 95% confidence intervals (red shading) for each velocity bin. We found no evidence of a difference in activation between low, intermediate, and high locomotion velocities (indicated by gray shading). (F) Left: For all axons, the correlation coefficient of their calcium activity with locomotion velocity plotted against the correlation coefficient with a binarized version of the locomotion velocity. Right: Distributions of correlation coefficients between calcium activity and locomotion velocity and binarized velocity. Same data as shown on the left. Boxes show 25th and 75th percentile, central mark is the median, and the whiskers extend to the most extreme data points not considered outliers.

Figure 2—figure supplement 1
Responses of GRAB-ACh3.0 in visual cortex are similar to the calcium responses in cholinergic axons.

(A) Average change in GRAB-ACh3.0 fluorescence during locomotion onset. We used the fluorescence change measured in blood vessels (purple) to estimate hemodynamic occlusion and subtracted this from the raw activity (black) to generate a corrected response (red). Shading marks SEM. (B) As in A, but for the GRAB-ACh3.0 response to grating onsets. The green shading marks the duration of the grating stimulus. (C) As in A, but for the GRAB-ACh3.0 response to visuomotor mismatch. The orange shading marks the duration of the visuomotor mismatch. (D) To estimate hemodynamic occlusion effects while two-photon imaging, we measured fluorescence changes on locomotion onset in layer 2/3 neurons in visual cortex that express GFP. (E) As in D, but for responses to grating onsets. (F) As in D, but for responses to visuomotor mismatch. (G) The correlation coefficient between the population activity vectors during locomotion onset (on), offset (off), and during locomotion bout (btw), compared to shuffle (rnd.) controls. Here and elsewhere, n.s.: not significant; *p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p<0.001; see Supplementary file 1 for all statistical information. (H) GRAB-ACh3.0 fluorescence as a function of locomotion velocity. Shown are the mean acetylcholine level in each bin, corrected for hemodynamics. Shading marks SEM. We found no evidence of a difference in acetylcholine level between low and high locomotion velocities (indicated by gray shading). Note, the x-axis range is matched to that in Figure 2E. Because we had overall less data in these GRAB experiments, reliable estimates of mean acetylcholine levels were not possible for locomotion velocities above approximately 13 cm/s.

Figure 2—figure supplement 2
Cholinergic axon activity correlated better with a binarized locomotion vector than with the unfiltered locomotion vector over a large range of binarization thresholds.

The correlation between activity of cholinergic axons in visual cortex and locomotion velocity was higher when we used a binarized version of the locomotion velocity trace. This difference was present over a large range of thresholds. The black bar at the top of the plot indicates threshold values for which the correlation with binarized locomotion velocity was higher than that with raw locomotion velocity.

Figure 3 with 1 supplement
Average activity of cholinergic axons was more strongly correlated with locomotion velocity than with pupil diameter.

The black arrow marks the smoothing window used for facial movements.

Figure 4—figure supplement 1
Optogenetic stimulation of basal forebrain cholinergic axons in visual cortex did not change the locomotion velocity of the mice.

To avoid regression to the mean artifacts, neurons are selected based on half of the trials, and the responses of the other half of trials are shown here. Duration of the optogenetic stimulation is marked by a pink bar. Green shading indicates duration of the grating stimulus. The responses are compared bin-by-bin using a nested hierarchical bootstrap test. Here and in subsequent panels, bins with a significant difference (p<0.05) are indicated by a black line above the plot; those with p>0.05 are marked gray. Shading marks SEM.

(C) As in A, but comparing the correlation while the mice were stationary, to that while cholinergic axons were stimulated optogenetically. (D) As in C, but for layer 5 neurons. Note, for this experiment the imaging plane was in L2/3 to simultaneously image layer 2/3 neurons and apical dendrites of layer 5. The latter were traced to their soma in layer 5 offline and were used to compute layer 5 activity correlations. (E) Average change in pairwise correlations of layer 2/3 neurons on locomotion (gray) or on optogenetic stimulation of cholinergic axons during stationary periods (pink), compared to the correlations during stationary (stat.) periods at baseline.

Change in locomotion-related decorrelation upon chemogenetic manipulation of basal forebrain cholinergic neurons.

Related to Figure 6. (A) Average change in pairwise correlations of layer 2/3 neurons of visual cortex during locomotion in the group of mice before (gray, left) and after (pink) DREADD activation, and in the group before (gray, right) and after (orange) DREADD inhibition of basal forebrain cholinergic neurons. Here and elsewhere, n.s.: not significant; *p<0.05; **p<0.01; ***p<0.001; see Supplementary file 1 for all statistical information.
