Abstract | Membrane potential is an indispensable biophysical signal in neurobiology. Imaging neuronal electrical signals with fluorescent indicators allows for non-invasive recording at high spatial resolution. Over the past decades, both genetically encoded voltage indicators (GEVIs) and organic voltage sensing dyes (OVSDs) have been developed to achieve imaging membrane potential dynamics in cultured neurons and in vivo. More recently, hybrid voltage indicators have gained increasing attention due to their superior fluorescent quantum yield and photostability as compared to conventional GEVIs. In this mini-review, we summarize the design, characterization and biological applications of hybrid voltage indicators, and discuss future improvements. |
