Avgjørende skritt for å måle RSNA inkluderer: (1) å unngå strekking av nyre arterien og nerver når skille nyre fra paraspinal muskelen og når å plassere nerve segmentet på opptak elektrodene, (2) nøye dissekere nyre nervefibrene fra omkringliggende vev/fartøyet, (3) sikrer at elektroden ledninger er vev, blod, eller lymfe væske eller (4) hindrer nerve tørker ut ved å bruke mineralolje nyre nerve og silica gel til nerve elektrode enhet. For feilsøking er det viktig å sikre at opptaket systemet er tilstrekk...

Pre-klinisk funn om autonome kontroll av det kardiovaskulære systemet informere strategier for å behandle sykdommer som høyt blodtrykk, hjertesvikt og kronisk nyresykdom. Over-aktivitet i sympatiske nervesystemet og redusert vagal hjerte tone bidra til forhøyet blodtrykk (BP)1. Kronisk opphøyet nyre sympatisk utløp forbedrer katekolaminer sekresjon og reduserer nyre blodstrøm, skadelige konsekvenser hjerte/nyre systemer2,3. Definere nevrobiologiske veier fører til autonome dysfunksjon, er studier i gnagere viktig for å bestemme hvordan sentralnervesystemet (CNS) neurons regulere sympatisk parametere. Formålet med denne protokollen er å gi teknisk informasjon om måling nyre sympatiske nerve aktivitet (RSNA) og BP og skissere teknikkene for å kvantifisere akutt sympatisk endringer i respons til CNS manipulasjoner i bedøvet rotter.
Akutt (ikke-overlevelse) RSNA målinger (varig min til h) er nyttige når forskere vil undersøke CNS farmakologisk, elektrisk, eller optogenetically i anesthetized rotter å bestemme funksjonene til spesifikke kjerner. Ved hjelp av disse metodene, strukturer som enslig kjernen, periaqueductal grå, er pedunculopontine tegmentum og rostral ventrolateral marg gransket for å definere nevrobiologiske trasé regulere sympatisk parametere4, 5,6,7. Denne tilnærmingen er viktig for å identifisere CNS mål undersøkes i kronisk modeller av autonome dysfunksjon8,9. For å fullføre disse eksperimentene, krever laboratoriet en loddebolt, kirurgisk mikroskop, stereotaxic ramme, microelectrode forsterker og lyd skjermen. Avhengig av hvilke faktorer i laboratoriet som bidrar til elektrisk støy, krever kirurgiske/opptak området en Faraday bur/jording stropp å redusere elektrisk støy i RSNA innspillingen. Hvis hjernen analyser krever vev fiksering, kreves perfusjon pumpe og fume hette. Data kan digitaliseres og spilt inn med flere fysiologiske programvare/data oppkjøp (analog-digital omformer) enheter4,5, med forskjellige alternativer og kompatibilitet for omfatter telemetrisk signaler .

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

Nyre sympatiske nerve aktivitet (RSNA) og mener arteriell press er viktige parametere i hjerte og autonome forskning; men er det begrensede ressurser regi forskere i teknikker for å måle og analysere disse variablene. Denne protokollen beskriver metodene for å måle RSNA og mener arteriell trykket i bedøvet rotter. Protokollen inneholder også tilnærminger for tilgang til hjernen under RSNA innspillinger for sentralnervesystemet (CNS) manipulasjoner. RSNA opptak teknikken er kompatibel med pharmacologic, optogenetic, eller elektrisk stimulering av CNS. Tilnærmingen er nyttig når en etterforsker vil måle kortsiktige (min til h) autonome responsen i ikke-overlevelse eksperimenter å korrelere anatomisk med CNS kjerner. Tilnærmingen er ikke ment å brukes til å få kronisk (overlevelse) innspillinger av RSNA i rotter. Utslipp i RSNA, gjennomsnitt utbedret RSNA, og mener arteriell press kan være kvantifisert og analysert ytterligere ved hjelp av parametriske statistiske tester. Metoder for venøs tilgang, innspilling mener arteriell press telemetrically og hjernen fiksering for fremtidige histologiske analyse er også beskrevet i artikkelen.

Figur 1 illustrerer et eksempel RSNA og BP opptak fra rotte Nembutal-anesthetized. Intravenøs injeksjon av phenylephrine ble brukt å indusere en økning i gjennomsnittlig arteriell presset og å fremkalle den baroreflex og forbigående sympathoinhibition4,6. For å kvantifisere RSNA, ble rå RSNA utbedret og gjennomsnitt for ikke-overlappende 10 s segmenter: støy estimatet ble trukket fra hvert seg...

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

Kvantifisere akutte endringer i nyre sympatiske Nerve aktivitet svar på sentralnervesystemet manipulasjoner i bedøvet rotter

Metoder for måling sympatisk og hjerte svar på sentralnervesystemet (CNS) manipulasjoner er viktig for fremme nevrovitenskap. Denne protokollen ble utviklet for å hjelpe forskere med måling og kvantifisere akutte endringer i nyre sympatiske nerve aktivitet (RSNA) i bedøvet rotter (ikke-overlevelse).

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