Chandelier cells (ChCs) are modulated by arousal and show high correlations.

(A) Schematic of approach. ChCs (selectively expressing Cre in Vipr2-Cre mice) were identified using the red fluorophore mRuby2 and neuronal activity of ChCs (yellow arrows) as well as L2/3 pyramidal cells (PyCs) was tracked using two-photon calcium imaging of GCaMP6f. Scale bar, 50 µm. Mice were allowed to freely run or rest while viewing a gray screen. (B) Example recording of PyCs (black box) and ChCs (red box) with tracking of running speed and pupil area (bottom two rows). Single-cell ΔF/F traces were z-scored for display purposes. The inset highlights the correlated activity of six ChCs. Inset vertical scale bars, 4 z-score (ChCs), 10 cm/s (run), 2000 a.u. (pupil). Horizontal scale bar, 10 s. (C) Average correlation coefficients for ΔF/F of PyCs and ChCs with running speed, pupil area, and within cell type. ChCs show higher correlation coefficients than PyCs across conditions (15 sessions from 8 mice, n=1883 PyCs and 95 ChCs, 19 ± 2.93 ChC pairs per field of view). Linear mixed effects model (LMEM) for all comparisons. ***: p<0.001, ns: not significant. Box plots represent median, quantiles, and 95% confidence interval (CI) over neurons.

Chandelier cells (ChCs) are weakly selective to visual information.

(A) Schematic of experiment and convolutional neural network (CNN) model fitting. Mice expressing GCaMP8m in L2/3 pyramidal cells (PyCs) and ChCs (Vipr2-Cre mice) or GCaMP6f in L5 PyCs (Rbp4-Cre mice) were shown a set of 4000 images. We trained a CNN to predict single-cell responses to a range of visual stimuli and to derive most exciting inputs (MEIs). Traces (right) represent average responses to natural images (green) and the activity predicted by the CNN (purple) for an example neuron. Scale bars example field of view, 50 µm. (B) Average response strength to natural images for different neuronal cell types. Box plots represent median, quantiles and 95% confidence interval (CI) over neurons. n=1015 L2/3 PyCs, 1601 L5 PyCs and 34 ChCs. LMEM for all comparisons, ***: p<0.001, **: p<0.01, *: p<0.05, ns: not significant. (C) Average normalized response strength for different neuronal cell types on a subset of 40 natural images (compared to baseline, see Materials and methods). Images are ranked on the strength of the response they elicited for each neuron. ChCs curves are flatter than L2/3 PyCs and L5 PyCs, indicating lower stimulus selectivity. Inset: as in B, but for sparsity (a measure for stimulus selectivity). ChCs have lower sparsity than L2/3 PyCs and L5 PyCs. (D) As in B, but for correlation during visual stimulation. ChCs have higher within cell type correlations than L2/3 PyCs and L5 PyCs (21 ± 5.08 ChC pairs per field of view, mean ± SEM). (E) Natural image decoding accuracy for ChCs and L2/3 PyCs. ChC decoding accuracy (red line, 12.55%) was significantly lower than a distribution of decoding accuracies performed using equal numbers of subsampled L2/3 PyCs. Permutation test, ***p<0.001. The brown dotted line indicates theoretical chance level (2.5%). (F) Single-cell MEIs sorted by response sparsity (highest 26 neurons, descending from top left to bottom right). Note the diffuse and unstructured patterns in ChC MEIs. (G) As in B, but for orientation selectivity (OSI). ChCs have lower OSI than L2/3 PyCs and L5 PyCs. (H) As in B, but for contrast sensitivity. ChCs have lower contrast sensitivity than L2/3 PyCs and L5 PyCs. (I) As in B, but for spatial frequency (SF) tuning. ChCs prefer lower SFs than L5 PyCs. (J) As in B, but for receptive field (RF) size. ChCs have bigger RFs than L2/3 PyCs.

LMEM for all comparisons, ***: p<0.001, * p<0.05, ns: not significant. Box plots represent median, quantiles, and 95% confidence interval (CI) over neurons. (C) Average cross-validation correlation for each cell type. ChCs and L5 PyCs show lower cross-validation correlations than L2/3 PyCs. Cross-validation correlations were comparable to oracle correlations (maximally achievable correlations), indicating high performance of the CNN model for all cell types. (D) Orientation tuning curves for each cell type. Curves represent mean ± SEM over neurons after aligning single-cell curves to their preferred orientation. Data are normalized to the max response for each cell. (E) Contrast tuning curves for each cell type. Note the weak tuning of ChCs for contrast. (F) L5 MEIs obtained by optimizing responses from combinations of L5 PyCs. Each row represents a different starting L5 PyCs, with increasing numbers of L5 PyCs added to the optimization from left to right. Note the decrease in structure with increasing numbers of L5 PyCs used.

Locomotion and visuomotor mismatch drive chandelier cell (ChC) activity in a virtual tunnel.

(A) Schematic of approach. Vip2r-Cre mice were head-fixed on a running wheel in a visual virtual tunnel. ChCs were identified using the red fluorophore mRuby2 and neuronal activity of ChCs (yellow arrows) as well as pyramidal cells (PyCs) was tracked using two-photon calcium imaging of GCaMP6f. Scale bar, 50 µm. (B) Virtual tunnel design. Mice ran through a virtual tunnel consisting of a 1-m-long visual section (containing visual stimuli along the walls) immediately followed by a non-visual reward zone in gray screen conditions. In the non-visual section, an auditory cure predicted a water reward 2 s later. After a 6 s timeout the next trial started. (C) Single-cell z-scored average activity of all PyCs (blue/orange) and ChCs (red) during visual, non-visual, and visuomotor mismatch parts of the tunnel (n=1256 PyCs and 38 ChCs, 12 sessions from 6 mice). PyCs were clustered in two populations using hierarchical clustering based on their z-scored activity in the visual section. Cells are sorted on cluster followed by peak activation location. Note the difference in activity between the visual (cluster 1: V-PyCs, blue) and non-visual (cluster 2: NV-PyCs, orange) PyC populations. (D) Average population traces of V-PyCs, NV-PyCs, and ChCs in the visual (left) and non-visual (right) part of the tunnel. Normalized locomotion speed (right y-axis) is depicted in gray. The ChCs follow the activity profile of NV-PyCs. Traces represent mean ± SEM over neurons for ∆F/F and mean ± SEM over sessions for locomotion speed. (E) Average population traces during visuomotor mismatch events. NV-PyCs and ChCs show strong mismatch responses. (F) Average population traces at locomotion onset in the non-visual section of the tunnel. NV-PyCs and ChCs show strong locomotion onset responses. (G) Average activity during visual stimuli (20–80 cm) compared to start of tunnel (0–20 cm). NV-PyCs and ChCs were strongly suppressed by visual stimuli. Box plots represent median, quantiles, and 95% confidence interval (CI) over neurons. LMEM for all comparisons, ***: p<0.001. (H) As in G, but for activity in the entire non-visual part of the tunnel. (I) As in G, but for visuomotor mismatch events. (J) As in G, but for locomotion onset events. (K) Average correlation coefficient of ChCs with PyCs in visual and non-visual section of the tunnel. ChCs are more strongly correlated with NV-PyCs than V-PyCs.

Traces represent mean ± SEM over neurons. (B) Average activity during visual flow onset in closed loop. LMEM-Tukey for all comparisons, ***p<0.001. Box plots represent median, quantiles, and 95% confidence interval (CI) over neurons. (C) Silhouette analysis of PyC clustering. Clustering with a cluster number of two resulted in highest silhouette values. (D) Histogram distributions of visual response magnitude for V-PyCs and NV-PyCs on the real data from Figure 4. Responses were calculated by averaging activity between 20 and 80 cm on z-scored traces over the entire virtual tunnel. (E) Histogram distributions as described in D, but for permutation data. Visual responses were calculated as in D, but on traces obtained from shuffling the visual and non-visual section traces across neurons. (F) Histogram showing the cluster separability calculated as Battacharyya distance for the permutation data (blue histogram) and the real distribution (black line). Real separability is higher than expected by chance. Permutation test, ***p<0.001. (G) Schematic of approach for PV+ ChCs. ChCs were identified using Cre- and Flippase-dependent expression of tdTom (AI65 mouse line) in Vipr2-Cre × PV-FlpO mice. (H) Average population traces of visually responsive pyramidal cells (V-PyCs), non-visually responsive pyramidal cells (NV-PyCs), and ChCs in the visual (left) and non-visual (right) part of the tunnel (230 PyCs and 6 ChCs, 2 sessions from 2 mice). PV+ ChCs follow the activity profile of NV-PyCs. (I) Average population traces during visuomotor mismatch events. (J) Average population traces at locomotion onset in the non-visual part of the tunnel. (K) Average population traces during visual flow onset in closed loop experiments. Traces are aligned to start of the tunnel rather than distance along the tunnel. (L) Average activity during visual stimuli (20–80 cm) compared to start of tunnel (0–20 cm). (M) As in L, but for activity in the entire non-visual part of the tunnel. (N) As in L, but for visuomotor mismatch events. (O) As in L, but for locomotion onset events.

(B) Average population response traces to a 1 s (brown bar) moving grating for all PyCs and ChCs chronically imaged and matched in ‘naive’ and ‘trained’ sessions (n=411 PyCs and 51 ChCs, 8 sessions from 5 mice). Traces represent mean ± SEM over neurons. (C) Single-cell visual response magnitude pre and post training (averaged over 0.2–1.2 s after stimulus onset). (D) Average visual response magnitude in naive (N) and trained (T) conditions. ChCs, but not PyCs, show plasticity after training. LMEM for all comparisons, *: p<0.05, ns: not significant. Box plots represent median, quantiles, and 95% confidence interval (CI) over neurons. (E) As in B, but for all PyCs chronically imaged and matched in naive, tunnel, and trained sessions (n=68 V-PyCs and 71 NV-PyCs, 5 sessions from 3 mice). (F) As in C, but for PyC subtypes. (G) As in D, but for PyC subtypes. NV-PyCs show plasticity after training.

LMEM for all comparisons, ***: p<0.001, **: p<0.01, **: p<0.05, ns: not significant. Box plots represent median, quantiles, and 95% confidence interval (CI). (C) The number of boutons on AISs with at least 1 bouton is unaffected by training. Five naive and 3 trained mice, 2–3 slices per mouse, n=1200 AIS (N) and 738 AIS (T).
