Passaggi critici coinvolgono sia la dissezione iniziale e l&#39;ingresso delle cellule muscolari. Se i nervi vengono tagliati o muscolo viene danneggiato durante la dissezione iniziale è difficile continuare il resto della sperimentazione. Durante la dissezione, bisogna stare molto attenti a sezionare le forbici angolo verso l&#39;alto il più possibile durante l&#39;incisione dorsale. Durante il secondo passo fondamentale, entrando in una cellula muscolare, si deve guardare per un passato iperpolarizzazione ~ 30 mV. I...

channelrhodopsin2 mediated stimulation of synaptic potentials at drosophila neuromuscular junctions

Il<em&gt; Drosophila</em&gt; Larvale preparazione neuromuscolare ha dimostrato di essere uno strumento utile per studiare la fisiologia sinaptica<sup&gt; 1,2,3</sup&gt;. Attualmente, l&#39;unico mezzo a disposizione per evocare i potenziali eccitatori giunzionale (EJPs) in questa preparazione prevede l&#39;utilizzo di elettrodi di aspirazione. In entrambi i laboratori di ricerca e di insegnamento, gli studenti spesso hanno difficoltà a manovrare e manipolare questo tipo di elettrodo stimolante. Nel presente lavoro, mostriamo come stimolare a distanza i potenziali sinaptici alla larvale NMJ senza l&#39;uso di elettrodi di aspirazione. Esprimendo channelrhodopsin2 (ChR2)<sup&gt; 4,5,6</sup&gt; In<em&gt; Drosophila</em&gt; Motoneuroni utilizzando il<em&gt; GAL4-UAS</em&gt; Sistema<sup&gt; 7</sup&gt;, E fare piccole modifiche ad un impianto di base di elettrofisiologia, siamo stati in grado di evocare affidabile EJPs con impulsi di luce blu. Questa tecnica potrebbe essere particolarmente utile nei laboratori didattici neurofisiologia dove rig studente a tempo pratica e le risorse sono limitate.

Channelrhodopsin2 Mediated Stimulation of Synaptic Potentials at Drosophila Neuromuscular Junctions

Questa procedura utilizza una luce blu-attivati ​​canali delle cellule algali e strumenti specifici per l&#39;espressione genetica di evocare i potenziali sinaptici con impulsi di luce a livello della giunzione neuromuscolare (NMJ) in<em&gt; Drosophila</em&gt; Larve. Questa tecnica è un poco costoso e facile da usare alternativa alla stimolazione dell&#39;elettrodo di aspirazione per gli studi di fisiologia sinaptica nella ricerca e laboratori didattici.
