Summary

这是一个协议，准备和保持器官的文化一个新皮层锥体神经元的电气录音的目的的片准备。

Abstract

我们一直在研究大鼠大脑皮层锥体神经元电压门控钾通道的表达和功能的作用。由于缺乏这些渠道的具体药理代理商，我们已经采取了遗传学的方法操纵的渠道表达。我们使用一个器官的文化准备（16），以维持细胞的形态和皮质层模式。我们通常会在产后8-10天隔离急性新皮层切片，并保持3-7天文化片。这使我们能够在我们与急性切片的工作的一个年龄相仿的研究神经元和最大限度地减少了旺盛切片中的兴奋连接的发展。我们从视觉识别的锥体神经元层的II / III或V使用红外线照射（红外）和微分干涉对比显微镜（DIC）在电流或电压钳全细胞膜片钳记录。我们使用基因枪的野生型或突变的钾离子通道的DNA（基因枪）转来操纵表达的渠道，研究其功能。 epifluorescence显微镜与绿色荧光蛋白（GFP）基因共转染后的转染细胞很容易识别。我们比较对相邻的未转染的神经元，在同一层的同一片转染细胞的录音。

Protocol

1。一天的切片前的准备工作我们发现这是更有效的反应釜的手术器械和准备的解决方案前一天的切片。 高压灭菌仪器。 （半无菌条件下进行的手术和切片）。高压灭菌器下面的包，分别在高压灭菌纸包裹： 手术包：铲，22号手术刀刀片手柄，剪刀，镊子 切片包装：3旋钮（刀片控股旋钮和2浴，确保旋钮）和刀片护罩?…

Discussion

我们一直在研究在大鼠大脑皮层（4 9-11）锥体神经元电压门控钾通道的表达和功能的作用。由于缺乏这些渠道的具体药理代理商，我们使用一种遗传方法操纵通道表达（1,14,15,17-19）。我们利用一个器官的文化准备（2,3; 5-8; 12,13,15-22）。Stoppini等（16）的方法修改，以维持细胞的形态和皮质层模式。我们在产后6-17天隔离急性新皮层切片，并保持2-7天文化片。这使得我们研究类似岁的神经元在?…
