目的建立大鼠海马神经元原代培养方法,记录钾电流并观察其特性。方法无血清培养法进行海马神经元原代培养,从形态学和电生理学方面鉴定细胞活性;全细胞膜片钳技术记录钾电流,从药理学和动力学观察钾通道特性。结果经5—7d培养,获得胞膜完整、胞质均匀的海马神经元,并记录到典型的全细胞电压依赖性钾电流(IK)、延迟整流钾电流(IKDR),IK和IKDR均为外向电流,激活电压分别为-50mV和-40mv,随着去极化程度增加而增加,能被已知的钾通道的阻断剂4-AP和TEA—C1阻断,IK和IKDR的半教最大激活膜电位(V1/2)分别为(22.1676±2.1778)mV(n=6)和(17.8457±1.7767)mV(n=6),斜率因子(K)分别为(-6.1541±3.0541)mV(n=6)和(-6.5193±2.1894)mV(n=6)。结论在该实验条件下培养的海马神经元形态和生理特性起好,较好的表达了电压依赖性钾离子通道特性,适合电生理研究。
[Objective] To develop the method of primary cultivating of hippocampal neurons of new born rats and to observe the potassium channels characteristic of the neurons. [Method] The hippocampal neurons were cultured with serum-free medium combination, and its activity were verified by morphology and electrophysiology. The potassium currents were recorded hy whole-cell patch clamp technique, and studied its characteristics by pharmacology and kinetics of activation. [Results] After 5-7 days culture, the hippoeampal neurons' membrane is intact and cytoplasm is homogeneous. After block Na+ channels by TTX, standard whole cell voltage dependent potassium current(IK) and delayed rectifier potassium cutrent(IKDR)were reeorded who are outward currents. Their activated voltage were -50mV and -40 mV, respectively. 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) and tetraethylammonium (TEA) blocked components of outward potassium currents, Their half maximal activation voltage 0/1/2) were (22.1676±2.1778) mV (n=6) and (17.8457±1,7767) mV (n=6) and slope factor (k) were (-6.1541±3.0541) mY(n=6) and (-6.5193±2.1894) mV(n=6), respectively. [Conchlsion] The cultured hippocampal neurons with good shape and physiological characteristic can be obtained by this method, and be suitable for study on hippocampal neurons by patch clamp,
