Match the most appropriate type of brain imaging technique with
the correct experimental question. Each will only be used once.
Choose from the following: Fluorescence microscopy, electron
microscopy, Sholl analysis, In situ hybridization
A. In a rat model of depression, you hypothesize that neurons in
the amygdala have much simpler dendritic trees than non-depressed
mice _Sholl analysis (freebie!)___________
B. You are looking to see if mRNA levels of a glutamate receptor
are changed in the cortex after exposure to a drug
_________________
C. You are curious if the number of synaptic vesicles fusing
with the presynaptic membrane at the VTA – NAc synapse at any given
time is different in a mouse model of addiction
_________________
D. Using an Alexa 488 dye and immunohistochemistry techniques,
you want to know if neuronal actin protein is dysregulated in a
mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease _________________
