Detection Method
Immunohistochemistry, Direct fluorescence
Assay & Results
GnRH neurons in the median preoptic nucleus (MnPO).
Target Cell Transduction
Yes. We saw retrograde expression in expected regions after confirming endogenous fluorescence with immunohistochemistry.
Functional Testing
Optogenetic manipulations were not performed due to the sparseness of the labeled population.
Other Information
We did not see any toxicity
