Multilevel visual motion opponency in Drosophila
Open accessAbstract
Inhibitory interactions between opponent neuronal pathways constitute a common circuit motif across brain areas and species. However, in most cases, synaptic wiring and biophysical, cellular and network mechanisms generating opponency are unknown. Here, we combine optogenetics, voltage and calcium imaging, connectomics, electrophysiology and modeling to reveal multilevel opponent inhibition in the fly visual system. We uncover a circuit architecture in which a single cell type implements direction-selective, motion-opponent inhibition at all three network levels. This inhibition, mediated by GluClα receptors, is balanced with excitation in strength, despite tenfold fewer synapses. The different opponent network levels constitute a nested, hierarchical structure operating at increasing spatiotemporal scales. Electrophysiology and modeling suggest that distributing this computation over consecutive network levels counteracts a reduction in gain, which would result from integrating large opposing conductances at a single instance. We propose that this neural architecture provides resilience to noise while enabling high selectivity for relevant sensory information.

Inhibition can be shunting rather than subtractive in some fly neurons, and the conductance of an inhibitory synapse can be ten times higher than that of an excitatory synapse.
“For example, inhibition can be shunting rather than subtractive in some fly neurons100, and the conductance of an inhibitory synapse can be ten times higher than that of an excitatory synapse101.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
