应用全细胞膜片钳技术,研究SO2体内衍生物和食品添加剂——焦亚硫酸钠(sodium metabisulfite,SMB)对大鼠背根节(DRG)神经元瞬间外向钾电流(TOCs)和延迟整流钾电流(IK)的影响.结果表明,SMB可增大TOCs和IK,具剂量依赖性和电压依赖性.10μmol L^-1的SMB不影响TOCs的激活过程,给药前后TOCs的半数激活电压为(3.15±2.29)mV和(4.72±1.92)mV(N=8,P〉0.05),不改变其斜率;但10μmolL^-1的SMB却非常显著地影响TOCs的失活过程,给药前后其半数失活电压分别为(-53.6±0.45)mV和(-38.85±0.68)mV(N=8,P〈0.01),也不改变其斜率.10μmolL^-1的SMB显著提前IK的激活过程,给药前后IK的半数激活电压为(-11.98±3.50)mV和(-33.21±5.67)mV(N=8,P〈0.01),不改变其斜率.SMB显著增大TOCs和气,使IK的激活过程提前,抑制TOCs的失活过程,从而导致细胞内K^+通过K^+通道外流增加,进而可能对DRG神经元功能产生不利影响.图6参16
The effects of SO2 derivative - SMB, a food preservative, on transient outward potassium currents (TOCs) and delayed rectifier potassium currents ( IK ) in rat DRG neurons were investigated using whole cell configuration of patch-clamp technique. The results showed that SMB increased the amplitudes of TOCs and IK in a concentration-and voltage-dependent manner. 10 μmol L^-1 SMB did not affect the activation process of TOGs. Before and after application of 10 μmol L^-1 SMB, the half - activation voltages of TOCs were (3.15 ± 2.29) mV and (4.72 ± 1.92) mV ( N = 8, P 〉 0.05 ), respectively, and their slope factors were not changed. But the inactivation curve of TOCs was shifted to positive potentials, the half - inactivation voltages of TOGs were ( - 53.6 ± 0.45) mV and ( - 38.85 ± 0.68) mV (N = 8, P 〈 0.01 ), without changing the slope factors too. 10 μmol L^-1 SMB affected the activation process of IK. The half-activation voltages of IK were ( -11.98 ±3.50) mV and ( - 33.21 ± 5.67) mV (N = 8, P 〈 0.01 ), and their slope factors were not changed before and after application of 10 μmol L^-1 SMB. The enhancement effects of SMB on TOGs and IK were mainly due to the shift of the steady-state activation curve of IK in the hyperpolarizing direction and the shift of steady - inactivation of TOGs to more positive potentials. It is suggested that SO2 derivative-SMB cause the increase of extraeellular K ^+ and induce the disturbance of rat DRG neuronal functions. Fig 6, Ref 16
