Abstract

Despite the important roles of neuropeptides in a variety of physiological processes, there still lacks a method to probe neuropeptide release events in vivo with satisfying temporal and spatial resolution. Neuropeptide Release Reporter (NPRR) was recently introduced as a novel genetically encoded indicator of neuropeptide release with a high temporal resolution and peptide specificity based on GCaMP molecule. Here we describe a method for using NPRR to image selective neuropeptide release at Drosophila neuromuscular junction in semi-dissected larvae. This method provides a quantitative analysis of activity-dependent neuropeptide release as real-time changes in fluorescence intensity of GCaMP reporter with sub-second temporal resolution and single bouton specificity.
