Selective optogenetic stimulation of glutamatergic, but not GABAergic, vestibular nuclei neurons induces immediate and reversible postural imbalance in mice
Copyright © 2021. Published by Elsevier Ltd..
Glutamatergic and GABAergic neurons represent the neural components of the medial vestibular nuclei. We assessed the functional role of glutamatergic and GABAergic neuronal pathways arising from the vestibular nuclei (VN) in the maintenance of gait and balance by optogenetically stimulating the VN in VGluT2-cre and GAD2-cre mice. We demonstrate that glutamatergic, but not GABAergic VN neuronal subpopulation is responsible for immediate and strong posturo-locomotor deficits, comparable to unilateral vestibular deafferentation models. During optogenetic stimulation, the support surface dramatically increased in VNVGluT2+ mice, and rapidly fell back to baseline after stimulation, whilst it remained unchanged during similar stimulation of VNGAD2+ mice. This effect persisted when vestibular tactilo kinesthesic plantar inputs were removed. Posturo-locomotor alterations evoked in VNVGluT2+ animals were still present immediately after stimulation, while they disappeared 1 h later. Overall, these results indicate a fundamental role for VNVGluT2+ neurons in balance and posturo-locomotor functions, but not for VNGAD2+ neurons, in this specific context. This new optogenetic approach will be useful to characterize the role of the different VN neuronal populations involved in vestibular physiology and pathophysiology.
