Abstract

Better understanding of stimulus-evoked intrinsic optical signals (IOSs) in the retina promises new methodology for study and diagnosis of retinal function. Using a flood-illumination near infrared (NIR) light microscope equipped with high-speed CCD (80 Hz) and CMOS (1000 Hz) cameras, we validated depth-resolved enface imaging of fast IOSs in isolated retina of leopard frog. Both positive (increasing) and negative (decreasing) IOSs were observed at the photoreceptor and inner layers of the retina. The distribution of IOSs with opposite polarities showed a center-surround pattern. At the photoreceptor layer, negative IOSs dominated the center area illuminated by the stimulus light spot, while positive signals dominated the surrounding area. In contrast, at inner retinal layers, positive IOSs dominated the center area covered by the stimulus light spot, and negative IOSs were mainly observed in the surrounding area. Fast CMOS imaging disclosed rapid IOSs within 5 ms after the stimulus onset, and both ON and OFF optical responses were observed associated with a step light stimulus.

Schematic diagram of the experimental setup. During the measurement, isolated frog retina was illuminated continuously by the NIR light for recording of stimulus-evoked IOSs. The visible light stimulator was used to produce a visible light flash for retinal stimulation. Concurrent ERG measurement was conducted to record electrophysiological responses associated with retinal activation. At the dichroic mirror (DM), visible stimulus light was reflected and NIR recording light was passed through. The eyepiece camera was used to adjust visible light stimulus aperture at the retina. In order to ensure light efficiency for intrinsic optical signal imaging, the beam splitter (BS) was removed from the optical path after we adjusted the visible light stimulator. The NIR filter was used to block visible stimulus light, and allow the NIR probe light to reach the CCD/CMOS camera.

In each subpanel, Pixel (x, y) indicates the location of each representative pixel. Black, blue, and red tracings correspond to the intrinsic optical signal images recorded from photoreceptor layer (PRL), inner nuclear layer (INL), and ganglion layer (GL). Vertical lines indicate the stimulus onset and offset. Black arrows point to ON response of the IOSs corresponding to the stimulus onset. Green and purple arrows point to OFF response of the IOSs corresponding to the stimulus offset.

Averaged intrinsic optical responses of the retinal area (40 µm×40 µm) covered by the white block shown in Fig. 6 (b). Black, blue, and red tracings correspond to the imaging sequences of the photoreceptor layer (PRL), inner nuclear layer (INL), and ganglion layer (GL) shown in Fig. 6 (d–f). Vertical lines indicate the stimulus onset and offset. Black arrows point to ON response of the IOSs corresponding to the stimulus onset. Green and purple arrows point to OFF response of the IOSs corresponding to the stimulus offset.
