¹Department of Pain, First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, ²Department of Pediatrics, First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, ³Center for Laboratory Medicine, First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University

Here, we describe the essential steps for whole-cell patch-clamp recordings made from substantia gelatinosa (SG) neurons in the in vitro spinal cord slice. This method allows the intrinsic membrane properties, synaptic transmission and morphological characterization of SG neurons to be studied.

This study uses temperature and material composition to control the yield stress properties of yield stress fluids. The solid-like state of the ink can protect the printing structure, and the liquid-like state can continuously fill the printing position, realizing the digital light processing 3D printing of extremely soft bioinks.
