Figure 1 Genetic Labeling of RA Longitudinal Lanceolate and SA Merkel-Ending Neurons in the Vibrissa Sensory System (A) Schematic drawing of the types of touch sensory endings in the mouse vibrissa follicle is presented. (B) Representative images of AP staining result from P7 ChodlPLAP/+ mice on TG section (left) and vibrissa follicle sections (right two panels). Longitudinal lanceolate-ending neurons were selectively labeled. (C) Representative images of AP staining result from P7 Pv::Cre; RΦAP mice on TG (left) or vibrissa follicle sections (right two panels). Pv::Cre; RΦAP labeled Merkel-ending (arrows) and a few longitudinal lanceolate-ending (arrowhead) neurons. (D) Representative images of two-color fluorescent in situ hybridization with Chodl (green) and Ret (red) probes on the P7 wild-type (WT) TG sections. A total 96.46% ± 0.27% chodl+ cells coexpressed Ret (arrow). (E) Representative images of two-color fluorescent in situ hybridization on TG sections from P21 Pv::Cre; RΦGFP mice. Top row shows GFP (green) and TrkC (red), middle row presents GFP and Ret, and bottom row shows GFP and TrkA. A total of 62.4% ± 1.5% GFP+ cells (labeled by Pv::Cre) coexpressed with TrkC, 25.6% ± 1.0% GFP+ cells coexpressed with Ret, and 17.3% ± 2.9% GFP+ cells coexpressed with TrkA. (F) Double immunostaining shows sensory axons (green) and Merkel cells (red) on sections from the mystacial pad from Pv::Cre; RΦGFP mice at P7. In the small vibrissa (top row), more than 90% of Merkel cells were innervated by Pv::Cre-labeled axons; in contrast, in the large vibrissa (bottom row images), Pv::Cre only labeled subsets of axons innervating Merkel cells. (G) Representative TG sections from Pv::Cre; RΦtomato; ChodlPLAP/+ triple-transgenic mice (P7) are shown. A total of 22.3% ± 0.8% Chodl+ (AP stained) neurons exhibit tomato fluorescence (PLAP and tomato double positive). Conversely, 24.3% ± 1.3% tomato+ neurons exhibit PLAP activity (Chodl+).

Figure 5 Hypothetical Model Involving Temporal Coding of Tactile Information in the First Relay Station of the Vibrissa Sensory Pathway (A) A PN receives convergent SA and RA inputs and thus shows mixed RA and SA responses. (B) Hypothetical model is presented. The sensory circuit from a single vibrissa to the brain has the “one-to-many and many-to-one” connectivity architecture. The individual neuronal spike and adaption patterns elicited by a touch stimulus are hypothetical on the model. We speculate that the spike timing differences in sensory neurons in response to the touch stimulus and coincident detection of transiently synchronous spikes by PNs can result in a temporal code from the vibrissa column to encode the nature of tactile stimulus.
