We present an enhancer AAV toolbox for accessing and perturbing striatal cell types and circuits. Best-in-class vectors were curated for accessing major striatal neuron populations including medium spiny neurons (MSNs), direct and indirect pathway MSNs, as well as Sst-Chodl, Pvalb-Pthlh, and cholinergic interneurons. Specificity was evaluated by multiple modes of molecular validation, three different routes of virus delivery, and with diverse transgene cargos. Importantly, we provide detailed information necessary to achieve reliable cell type specific labeling under different experimental contexts. We demonstrate direct pathway circuit-selective optogenetic perturbation of behavior and multiplex labeling of striatal interneuron types for targeted analysis of cellular features. Lastly, we show conserved activity for exemplary MSN enhancers in rat and macaque. This collection of striatal enhancer AAVs offers greater versatility compared to available transgenic lines and can readily be applied for cell type and circuit studies in diverse mammalian species beyond the mouse model.
我们展示了一个用于访问和扰动纹状体细胞类型及回路的增强子腺相关病毒（AAV）工具箱。精心挑选了一流的载体，用于访问主要的纹状体神经元群体，包括中等棘状神经元（MSN）、直接和间接通路的MSN，以及Sst-Chodl、Pvalb-Pthlh和胆碱能中间神经元。通过多种分子验证模式、三种不同的病毒递送途径以及不同的转基因货物来评估特异性。重要的是，我们提供了在不同实验背景下实现可靠的细胞类型特异性标记所需的详细信息。我们展示了行为的直接通路电路选择性光遗传学扰动以及纹状体中间神经元类型的多重标记，用于细胞特征的靶向分析。最后，我们展示了大鼠和猕猴中示例性MSN增强子的保守活性。与现有的转基因品系相比，这个纹状体增强子AAV集合具有更大的通用性，并且可以很容易地应用于小鼠模型之外的多种哺乳动物物种的细胞类型和回路研究。
