摘要:

背景:细胞培养与通道电流记录是全细胞膜片钳实验的主要难点。
目的:介绍一种简单可行的降低全细胞膜片钳实验方法,将细胞急性分离与电流的分离技术结合起来,以提高工作效率,缩短实验的时间,从根本上降低膜片钳实验的难度。
方法:SPF级出生4~7 d的wistar大鼠40只,雌雄不限。采用改良的急性分离的方法制备Wistar大鼠脑皮质细胞,将大鼠脑皮质切成400~600 μm厚度的薄片,在人工脑脊液中通混合气静止1 h,并通以氧气。将脑组织块放入含有16 u/mL( type X )和2 u/mL(type XIV) 蛋白水解酶的人工脑脊液中,孵育60 min,清除消化酶。在全细胞电压钳制模式下,保持电位-80 mV,给予-60 mV到60 mV的去极化脉冲刺激,步阶为+10 mV,刺激波宽160 ms。记录到跨膜总电流,在全细胞电极液里面加入70 mmol/LCsCl,70 mmol/L CsF;在外液中先后加入11 μmol/L  阻断剂河豚毒素、30 mmol/L的氯化四乙胺、1 mmol/L的4-AP。分别记录内向钠电流,瞬时外向钾电流和延迟整流钾电流,结果用clampfit分析处理。主要观察:①细胞的形态学观察。②全细胞电流的记录。③内向钠电流的记录。④外向钾电流的记录。
结果与结论:细胞空间立体结构强,表面光滑,有完整的树突或者轴突,且细胞的活性可以在25 ℃室温下维持8~10 h。在外液中加入1 μmol/L的河豚毒素基本上可以阻断钠电流;30 mmol/L的氯化四乙胺和1 mmol/L的4-AP可以阻断外向钾电流。结果表明,改良的细胞急性分离方法细胞功能完好。通过电流分离技术,不改变细胞外液和电极液,仅需添加特异阻断剂,可记录到内向钠电流,瞬时外向钾电流以及延迟整流钾电流,较之传统方法可显著提高工作效率。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: The main difficulties of whole-cell patch clamp are cell culture and whole-cell current recording.
OBJECTIVE: To reduce the difficulty of patch-clamp experiment by combining acute cell isolation with current separation technique.
METHODS: A total of 40 wistar rats aged 4-7 days, irrespective of genders, were selected. The pallium of wistar rats were cut into slices with 400-600 μm, rested for 1 hour in artificial cerebrospinal fluid with gas mixture, simultaneously put in oxygen. The brain tissues were placed into artificial cerebrospinal fluid containing
16 u/mL( type X ) and 2 u/mL(type XIV) proteinase, incubated for 60 minutes, and cleared the digestive enzyme. Under the whole-cell voltage clamp mode, the potential was hold at -80mV, depolarizing pulse stimulation from -60 mV to 60 mV, 10 mV step and 160 ms width. The total Tran membranes current was recorded, and then 70 mmol/LCsCl, 70mmol/L CsF was 11 μmol/L Na+ channel blockers tetrodotoxin, 30 mmol/L tetraethylammonium, 1 mmol/L 4-AP was successively added into extracellular fluid. The inward sodium current, transient outward potassium current and delayed rectifier potassium current was recorded, and then the result was analyzed using clampfit. 
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①Cell morphological observation; ②Whole-cell current recording; ③Inward sodium current recording; ④Outward potassium current recording.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The cell had clearly three-dimensional structure, smooth surface and whole neurodendrite or neuraxon. The cell viability could maintained for 8-10 hours at 25 ℃ temperature. The added 11 tetrodotoxin in extracellular fluid could block sodium current. The outward potassium current could be blocked by tetraethylammonium with 30 mmol/L and 4-AP with 1 mmol/L. The cells harvested by modified rapid dissociation have good functions. Using current separation method, only specific blockers are needed, without extracellular fluid or electrode solution replacing, which can record the inward sodium current, transient outward potassium current, as well as delayed rectifier potassium current. This method can obviously improve the work efficiency than traditional one.
