Figure 5

Micro-dissected Arc complex and DMH maintain circadian rhythms in PER2::LUC expression in normal and TTX containing media. EM-CCD images of micro-dissected Arc complex (Arc/ME/PT) (A) and DMH (B) captured before total bioluminescence was recorded in photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). (C; Arc complex) and (D; DMH) are detrended PMT recordings of relative PER2::LUC bioluminescence (counts per minute) emitted from the slices shown in (A) and (B). Inhibition of sodium channel dependent action potentials with TTX (0.5 μM) in micro-dissected Arc complex (F) and DMH (E) does not inhibit circadian rhythms in PER2::LUC expression.
