Mapping neurons and resolving their individual synaptic connections can be achieved by volumetric imaging at nanoscale resolution with dense cellular labeling. Light microscopy is uniquely positioned to visualize specific molecules but dense, synapse-level circuit reconstruction by light microscopy has been out of reach due to limitations in resolution, contrast, and volumetric imaging capability. Here we developed light-microscopy based connectomics (LICONN). We integrated specifically engineered hydrogel embedding and expansion with comprehensive deep-learning based segmentation and analysis of connectivity, thus directly incorporating molecular information in synapse-level brain tissue reconstructions. LICONN will allow synapse-level brain tissue phenotyping in biological experiments in a readily adoptable manner.","lang":"eng"}],"title":"Light-microscopy based dense connectomic reconstruction of mammalian brain tissue","date_published":"2024-07-08T00:00:00Z","project":[{"_id":"6285a163-2b32-11ec-9570-8e204ca2dba5","name":"Studying Organelle Structure and Function at Nanoscale Resolution with Expansion Microscopy","grant_number":"26137"},{"call_identifier":"H2020","_id":"2564DBCA-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"International IST Doctoral Program","grant_number":"665385"},{"grant_number":"101044865","name":"Toward an understanding of the brain interstitial system and the extracellular proteome in health and autism spectrum disorders","_id":"34ba8964-11ca-11ed-8bc3-e15864e7e9a6"},{"call_identifier":"FWF","_id":"26AA4EF2-B435-11E9-9278-68D0E5697425","name":"Molecular Drug Targets","grant_number":"W1232-B24"}],"publication":"bioRxiv","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication_status":"submitted","year":"2024","acknowledged_ssus":[{"_id":"E-Lib"},{"_id":"M-Shop"},{"_id":"LifeSc"},{"_id":"Bio"},{"_id":"ScienComp"}],"oa":1,"related_material":{"record":[{"relation":"dissertation_contains","id":"18674","status":"for_moderation"},{"status":"for_moderation","id":"18681","relation":"dissertation_contains"}]},"doi":"10.1101/2024.03.01.582884","acknowledgement":"We thank Sven Dorkenwald and Peter Li for critical reading of the\r\nmanuscript.
