  abstract     = {{Spontaneous neuronal activity and concomitant intracellular Ca<sup>2+</sup><br>
 signaling are abundant during early perinatal development and are well <br>
known for their key role in neuronal proliferation, migration, <br>
differentiation and wiring. However, much less is known about the in <br>
vivo patterns of spontaneous Ca<sup>2+</sup> signaling in immature adult-born cells. Here, by using two-photon Ca<sup>2+</sup> imaging, we analyzed spontaneous in vivo Ca<sup>2+</sup><br>
 signaling in adult-born juxtaglomerular cells of the mouse olfactory <br>
bulb over the time period of 5 weeks, from the day of their arrival in <br>
the glomerular layer till their stable integration into the preexisting <br>
neural network. We show that spontaneous Ca<sup>2+</sup> transients are ubiquitously present in adult-born cells right after their arrival, require activation of voltage-gated Na<sup>+</sup><br>
 channels and are little sensitive to isoflurane anesthesia. <br>
Interestingly, several parameters of this spontaneous activity, such as <br>
the area under the curve, the time spent in the active state as well as <br>
the fraction of continuously active cells show a bell-shaped dependence <br>
on cell's age, all peaking in 3-4 weeks old cells. This data firmly <br>
document the in vivo presence of spontaneous Ca<sup>2+</sup> signaling <br>
during the layer-specific maturation of adult-born neurons in the <br>
olfactory bulb and motivate further analyses of the functional role(s) <br>
of this activity.<br>
