Wichtige Schritte zur Messung der RSNA gehören: (1) Vermeidung von dehnen der Nierenarterie und Nerven, wenn die Niere die Trennung von der paraspinalen Muskulatur und beim Platzieren der Nerv-Segment auf den Aufnahme-Elektroden (2) sorgfältig seziert die renale Nervenfasern aus dem umliegenden Gewebe/Schiff (3) zu gewährleisten, die die Elektrode Leitungen sind frei von Gewebe, Blut oder Lymphflüssigkeit und die Nerven vor dem Austrocknen durch die Anwendung von Mineralöl auf die renale Nerven und Silica-Gel auf di...

Prä-klinischen Entdeckungen über autonome Kontrolle des Herz-Kreislauf-Systems informieren Sie Strategien für die Verwaltung von Erkrankungen wie Bluthochdruck, Herzinsuffizienz und Niereninsuffizienz. Überaktivität des sympathischen Nervensystems und reduzierte kardiale vagotonus tragen zu erhöhter Blutdruck (BP)1. Chronisch erhöhten renalen sympathischen Abfluss Katecholamin-Sekretion erhöht und verringert renale Durchblutung mit schädlichen Folgen für das Herz-Kreislauf-/ renal Systeme2,3. Um die neurobiologischen Wege zu einer autonomen Dysfunktion zu definieren, sind Studien an Nagern wichtig für die Bestimmung, wie Neuronen des zentralen Nervensystems (ZNS) sympathischen Parameter regulieren. Der Zweck dieses Protokolls ist es, technische Auskunft über Messung der renalen sympathischen Nerven Aktivität (RSNA) und BP und die Techniken zur Quantifizierung der akuten sympathischer Änderungen als Reaktion auf CNS Manipulationen bei anästhesierten Ratten zu skizzieren.
Akute (Überleben) RSNA Messungen (dauerhafte min bis h) sind nützlich, wenn Wissenschaftler die CNS, pharmakologisch, elektrisch Sonde werden, oder Optogenetically in Ratten betäubt, die die Funktionen von bestimmten Kernen zu bestimmen. Mit diesen Methoden, Strukturen wie der einsame Kern, Periaquäduktales grau, wurden Pedunculopontine Tegmentum und rostral ventrolateralen Medulla untersucht um neurobiologische Wege Regulierung der sympathischen Parameter4zu definieren, 5,6,7. Dieser Ansatz ist wichtig für die Identifizierung von CNS Zielen zu untersuchenden in chronischen Modelle der autonomen Dysfunktion8,9weiter. Um diese Experimente zu vervollständigen, benötigt das Labor einen Lötkolben, Operationsmikroskop, stereotaktischen Rahmen, Mikroelektrode Verstärker und Audio-Monitor. Abhängig von den Faktoren im Labor vorhanden, die elektrische Störungen beitragen, erfordern chirurgische/Aufnahmebereich ein Faraday-Käfig/Erdung Riemen, elektrische Störungen in der RSNA Aufnahme zu reduzieren. Wenn Gehirn Analysen Gewebe Fixierung benötigen, eine Perfusion Pumpe und Dunst Haube sind erforderlich. Daten können digitalisiert und mit mehreren physiologischen Softwaredaten Erwerb (analog-Digital-Wandler) Einheiten4,5, mit verschiedenen Auswertungsmöglichkeiten und Kompatibilitäten für die Einbeziehung der telemetrischen Signale aufgezeichnet .

quantifying acute changes in renal sympathetic nerve activity in response to central nervous system manipulations in anesthetized rats

Renalen sympathischen Nerven-Aktivität (RSNA) und arterielle Mitteldruck sind wichtige Parameter in der Herz-Kreislauf- und autonome Forschung; Allerdings gibt es begrenzte Ressourcen leiten Wissenschaftler in den Techniken für die Messung und Analyse dieser Variablen. Dieses Protokoll beschreibt die Methoden zur Messung der RSNA und arterielle Mitteldruck bei anästhesierten Ratten. Das Protokoll enthält auch die Ansätze für den Zugriff auf das Gehirn während der RSNA Aufnahmen für Manipulationen des zentralen Nervensystems (ZNS). Die RSNA Aufnahmetechnik ist kompatibel mit pharmakologische, optogenetische oder elektrische Stimulation des ZNS. Der Ansatz ist nützlich, wenn ein Ermittler kurzfristige (min bis h) autonome Reaktionen in nicht überleben Experimente anatomisch korrelieren mit CNS Kerne gemessen wird. Der Ansatz soll nicht verwendet werden, um chronische (Überleben) Aufnahmen der RSNA in Ratten zu erhalten. Entladungen in RSNA, gemittelt korrigiert RSNA und arterielle Mitteldruck kann quantifiziert und weiter über parametrische statistische Tests analysiert. Verfahren für den Erhalt der venösen Zugang, arterielle Mitteldruck telemetrisch aufnehmen und Gehirn Fixierung für künftige histologische Analysen sind auch in dem Artikel beschrieben.

Abbildung 1 zeigt eine Probe RSNA und BP-Aufnahme aus einer Ratte Nembutal betäubt. Eine intravenöse Injektion von Phenylephrin wurde verwendet, um eine Zunahme der mittleren arteriellen Druckes induzieren und zu evozieren die Baroreflex und transiente Sympathoinhibition4,6. Quantifizierung der RSNA war die rohe RSNA gleichgerichtet und gemittelt für 10 s-Segmente nicht überlappende; die Lärm-Sch...

Quantifying Acute Changes in Renal Sympathetic Nerve Activity in Response to Central Nervous System Manipulations in Anesthetized Rats

Quantifizierung der akute Veränderungen im renalen sympathischen Nerven Aktivität als Reaktion auf Zentralnervensystem Manipulationen bei anästhesierten Ratten

Methoden zur Messung der sympathischer und Herz-Kreislauf-Antworten auf zentrale Nervensystem (ZNS) Manipulationen sind wichtig für die Förderung der Neurowissenschaften. Dieses Protokoll wurde entwickelt, um Wissenschaftler mit Messung und Quantifizierung der akute Veränderungen im renalen sympathischen Nerven-Aktivität (RSNA) bei anästhesierten Ratten (Überleben) zu unterstützen.

Renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) and mean arterial pressure are important parameters in cardiovascular and autonomic research; however, there are ...
