NeuroMorph: A Software Toolset for 3D Analysis of Neurite Morphology and Connectivity

Graham Knott, Jérôme Blanc, Anne Alison Jorstad

The geometries of axons, dendrites and their synaptic connections provide important information about their functional properties. These can be collected directly from measurements made on serial electron microscopy images. However, manual and automated se ...

A subpopulation of cortical VIP-expressing interneurons with highly dynamic spines

Graham Knott, Jérôme Blanc

Structural synaptic plasticity may underlie experience and learning-dependent changes in cortical circuits. In contrast to excitatory pyramidal neurons, insight into the structural plasticity of inhibitory neurons remains limited. Interneurons are divided ...

Ultrastructural comparison of dendritic spine morphology preserved with cryo and chemical fixation

Graham Knott, Carl Petersen, Jérôme Blanc, Natalya Korogod

Previously, we showed that cryo fixation of adult mouse brain tissue gave a truer representation of brain ultrastructure in comparison with a standard chemical fixation method (Korogod et al., 2015). Extracellular space matched physiological measurements, ...

3D Ultrastructure of Synaptic Inputs to Distinct GABAergic Neurons in the Mouse Primary Visual Cortex

Graham Knott, Carl Petersen, Catherine Maclachlan, Jérôme Blanc, Anaëlle Fabienne Dubois

Synapses are the fundamental elements of the brain's complicated neural networks. Although the ultrastructure of synapses has been extensively studied, the difference in how synaptic inputs are organized onto distinct neuronal types is not yet fully unders ...

Lamellar Schwann Cells in the Pacinian Corpuscle Potentiate Vibration Perception

Graham Knott, Mary-Claude Croisier-Coeytaux, Jérôme Blanc, Stéphanie Clerc

Pacinian corpuscles are among the most sensitive mechanoreceptors found in vertebrates, and they are tuned to vibrations in the highest perceptible frequency range (100 to 2000 Hz). One of their anatomical hallmarks is the onion-like cell layers surroundin ...
