刺激隐神经C类纤维诱发体感皮层电反应(平均诱发电位)

当猫的隐神经A类纤维单独兴奋时,可引起同侧脊髓背表面电位 A-SSP(潜伏期 2.6±0.4ms)和对侧体感皮层诱发电位 A-CEP。A-CEP由早成分(潜伏期 9.6±1 1ms)和晚成分(203.0±10.gms)组成。当 C类纤维选择性传入时,出现特异的 C-CEP(潜伏期 134.4±25.9ms)和C-SSP(115.8±15.6ms)。C-CEP的幅值较A-CEP 小,并随C类纤维传入的数量而改变。C-CEP的最大幅值位于后乙状回一定部位,多为负或正-负电位,在皮层深层其相位倒转。与A-CEP相比,C-CEP的中枢延搁时间较长,跟随频率较低,对镇痛药较敏感。表明C-CEP不同于A-CEP,它是由C类传入所引起的,是在体感皮层内产生的。当A类和C类纤维同时传入时,只有A-CEP和A-SSP出现,而不出现C-CEP和C-SSP。在阻断电流逐渐增强过程中,C-CEP较C-SSP后出现;而在撤销阻断过程中,则C-CEP较C-SSP先消失。提示C类传入在中枢可能被A类传入所抑制,这种抑制可以发生在脊髓和脊上水平,后者可能更强。     

C类纤维传入诱发体感皮层电反应的脊髓上传通路

实验用猫,在氯醛糖和三碘季铵酚处理下进行。以强电脉冲刺激腓浅神经,结合极化电流阻滞A类纤维的传入后,选择性引起C类纤维传入时,在对侧大脑皮层体感Ⅰ区记录到特异的C类纤维皮层诱发电位(G-CEP)。观察到损毁脊髓胸11节段对侧腹外侧索后,C-CEP的幅值明显衰减;损毁同侧背索后,G-CEP的幅值也明显衰减;保留同侧背索,损毁脊髓其他部份后,C-CEP仍出现,但幅值变小;同时损毁上述两索后,C-CEP完全消失。提示C类纤维传入诱发C-CEP的脊髓上传通路位于同侧背索和对侧腹外侧索。     

刺激隐神经中C类纤维诱发的小脑浦肯野细胞简单锋电位反应

用玻璃微电极记录了猫小脑浦肯野细胞的简单锋电位(PC-SS)。在标准化互协方差函数图中,PC-SS自发放电无明显波峰;弱刺激隐神经只引起A类纤维传入时,PC-SS出现A类诱发放电反应(A-CED),它包括潜伏期为16.7±0.9ms的早反应和270.8±12.8ms的晚反应。用极化电流选择性阻滞A类纤维传导后,强刺激只引起C类纤维单独传入时,出现潜伏期为142.4±4.3ms的C类诱发反应(C-CED)。强刺激同时引起A类和C类纤维传入时,只出现A-CED而不出现C-CED。按标准化功率谱密度函数分析,PC-SS自发放电可分为两种类型。一类为高峰型,最大能量峰值平均为15.7±4.7×10~(-3),峰频为4.07±1.67Hz;刺激A类纤维使峰值增大,而刺激C类纤维却使峰值减小。另一类为低峰型,峰值为8.4±1.4×10~(-3),峰频为3.67±2.90Hz。刺激A类和C类纤维均使峰值增大,前者增大更多,但峰频均无显著性变化。上述结果表明,C类纤维传入可以到达小脑浦肯野细胞,引起特异的PC-SS放电反应。     

γ—氨基丁酸在联合皮层抑制C类纤维皮层诱发电位效应中的作用

电刺激猫大脑皮层前外侧回联合区(ALA)对隐神经C类纤维传入引起的体感皮层(SI)诱发电位(C-CEP)有明显的抑制作用;侧脑室注射γ-氨基丁酸(GABA)能使C-CEP的幅值显著变小,潜伏期延长,表明GABA对C-CEP也有抑制作用;侧脑室注射GABA受体拮抗剂荷包牡丹硷后,电刺激ALA对C-CEP的抑制作用明显减弱,提示内源性GABA的释放可能参与大脑皮层联合区对C-CEP的调制过程。     

大鼠 C 类传入纤维诱发的脊髓背表面电位

实验共用大鼠66只,以激活 C 类纤维的强度刺激腓肠神经,在脊髓背表面除记录到 A 类纤维诱发的 N_1、N_2和 P_1波外,还见一长潜伏期正波。该波与 P_1波方向一致,波形类似,故称之为 P_2波。P_2波潜伏期为133.3±13.7ms, 时程为83.3±21.9ms,幅度为154.8±92.8μV.P_2波的刺激阈值(33.7±11.8T)与复合动作电位 C 波的阈值(33.1±11.8T)相同或略高,当刺激强度达87.1±15.4T 时,两者幅度同时达最大值。P_2波的潜伏期与 C 类传入抵达脊髓的时间(125.6±13.4ms)非常接近,缩短外周传导距离所致 P_2波潜伏期的缩短(39.8±5.7ms)与 C 类传入经过缩短段所需时间(38.8±5.7ms)基本一致。用直流电阻断 A 类传入仅保留 C波时,N_1、N_2、P_1波消失而 P_2波仍存在,加大阻断电流使 C 波消失时,P_2波随之消失。以上结果表明 P_2波是 C 类传入诱发的脊髓电位。脊髓横断后 P_2波并不消失,P_2波在脊髓背表面的纵向分布与 P_1波基本平行,注射印防己碱后 P_2波与 P_1波都有减小,说明 P_2波的性质与 P_1波类似,可能是 C 类传入主要经脊髓环路诱发的初级传入末梢去极化,或许可作为突触前抑制指标。     

刺激大脑皮层体感Ⅱ区对C类纤维传入诱发体感Ⅰ区电反应的影响

电刺激猫大脑皮层体感Ⅱ区(SⅡ)隐神经投射点对隐神经C类纤维传入引起的体感Ⅰ区(SⅠ)诱发电位(C-CEP)有明显的抑制和易化两种影响。前者使C-CEP幅值降低、潜伏期延长;后者使C-CEP幅值升高、时程延长。抑制影响的持续时间较长,而易化持续时间则较短。弱刺激SⅡ区时,易化程度和出现机率较高;而强刺激时,则抑制程度和出现机率较高。弱刺激SⅡ区浅层时,有抑制和易化两种作用;而刺激深层时则只有抑制作用,同样强度刺激深层的抑制效应比刺激浅层大。提示SⅡ区可能对SⅠ区C-CEP有调制作用。     

猫体感皮层神经元对同时刺激隐神经的A类和C类纤维的反应型式

记录了麻痹猫的体感皮层(SI)神经元的自发和隐神经的A类和C类纤维传入诱发放电(A-ED和C-ED)。用NCCVF分析神经元放电。结果表明,SI区神经元对同时刺激隐神经的A类和C类纤维的反应呈多种型式:(1)A-ED和C-ED共存,包括Ⅰ.A-ED和C-ED始终相互伴随出现;Ⅱ.在刺激之初,只出现A-ED,但是,当阻断A类纤维传入并由C类纤维传入诱发神经元放电后,再同时刺激A类和C类纤维时,A-ED和C-ED便同时出现。(2)A-ED制约C-ED,特点是,只要A-ED存在,C/ED就不出现。只有阻断A类纤维传入后,C-ED才产生。(3)单一A-ED,不管在什么刺激条件下,这类神经元都只有A-ED,而不产生C-ED 结论:根据反应型式的不同,可将SI区的神经元分为Ⅰ.A类和C类纤维传入同时驱动的神经元;Ⅱ.A-ED制约C-ED的神经元;Ⅲ.只由A类纤维传入驱动的神经元。     

刺激大脑皮层联合区对C类纤维传入诱发皮层电反应的影响

电刺激猫大脑皮层前外侧回联合区(ALA)能使隐神经 C 类纤维传入引起的体感皮层(S(?)区)诱发电位(C-CEP)的幅值明显变小,并有后作用,表明 ALA 对 C-CEP 有抑制作用;切断ALA 与 SI 区之间的皮层内纤维联系后,ALA 对 C-CEP 的抑制作用明显减弱,抑制时程缩短;侧脑室微量注射阿片受体拮抗剂纳洛酮后,电刺激 ALA 对 C-CEP 的抑制作用明显减弱,表明 ALA 对 C-CEP 的抑制作用的作用途径之—可能是通过 ALA 与 SI 区之间的皮层内神经径路;可能与内源性阿片样物质的释放有关。提示大脑皮层联合区可能对体感皮层 C-CEP 有调制作用。     

猫体感皮层神经元对同时刺激隐神经的A类和C类纤维的反应型式

记录了麻痹猫的体感皮层(SI)神经元的自发和隐神经的A类和C类纤维传入诱发放电(A-ED和C-ED)。用NCCVF分析神经元放电。结果表明,SI区神经元对同时刺激隐神经的A类和C类纤维的反应呈多种型式:(1)A-ED和C-ED共存,包括Ⅰ.A-ED和C-ED始终相互伴随出现;Ⅱ.在刺激之初,只出现A-ED,但是,当阻断A类纤维传入并由C类纤维传入诱发神经元放电后,再同时刺激A类和C类纤维时,A-ED和C-ED便同时出现。(2)A-ED制约C-ED,特点是,只要A-ED存在,C/ED就不出现。只有阻断A类纤维传入后,C-ED才产生。(3)单一A-ED,不管在什么刺激条件下,这类神经元都只有A-ED,而不产生C-ED 结论:根据反应型式的不同,可将SI区的神经元分为Ⅰ.A类和C类纤维传入同时驱动的神经元;Ⅱ.A-ED制约C-ED的神经元;Ⅲ.只由A类纤维传入驱动的神经元。     

伤害性刺激诱发体感皮层单位放电的互协方差函数分析

用伤害性刺激猫的腓浅神经（ＰＮ）诱发体感皮层Ⅰ区（ＳⅠ）单位放电（ＥＤ）,以放电阵列图和标准化互协方差函数进行定量分析。结果显示,用２５Ｖ刺激时引起Ａ类和Ｃ类纤维传入,在ＳⅠ记录到潜伏期为１４．８±５．０ｍｓ的早期ＥＤ（Ｅ）,与用３Ｖ弱刺激ＰＮ时只引起单纯Ａ类纤维传入引起的放电反应比较,潜伏期无显著区别。用极化电流阻断Ａ类纤维传入后,单纯Ｃ类传入只引起潜伏期为２２２．６±２８．７ｍｓ的晚期ＥＤ（Ｌ）或１２９．２４±２３ｍｓ的中期ＥＤ（Ｍ）,Ｍ、Ｌ可相互抑制,也可被Ａ类纤维传入所抑制。静脉注射镇痛剂吗啡后,Ｍ和Ｌ显著减少,Ｅ变化不显著。提示Ｃ类纤维传入可能分两类分别到达ＳⅠ区引起两种不同潜伏期的诱发放电,均与疼痛关系密切,都可作为慢痛反应的指标。     

刺激隐神经中C类纤维诱发的小脑浦肯野细胞简单...

Simple spike of cerebellar Purkinje cells (PC-SS) was recorded with microelectrode. In the NCCVF (normalized cross-covariance function) histogram, spontaneous PC-SS does not show obvious peak. When the saphenous nerve is stimulated at lower intensities, which elicits the A-fiber input only, the discharge response (A-CED) consists of an early component with a latency of 16.7 +/- 0.9 ms and a late component with a latency of 270.8 +/- 12.8 ms. After A-fibers are blocked selectively by polarizing current, the stimulation at a suprathreshold strength for C-fiber evokes a characteristic response (C-CED) with a latency of 142.4 +/- 4.3 ms. However, the C-CED can not be evoked by the inputs of A- and C-fiber simultaneously. In NPSDF histogram, the spontaneous activities of PC-SS can be divided into two groups, the high and the low peak group. The high peak group (n = 15) has a peak energy value of 15.7 +/- 4.7 x 10(-3) and peak frequency of 4.07 +/- 1.69 Hz. A-fiber input causes an increase of the peak value, while C-fiber input causes a decrease. The low peak group (n = 16) has a peak energy value 8.4 +/- 1.4 x 10(-3) and peak frequency of 3.67 +/- 2.90 Hz. Both A-fiber and C-fiber inputs cause an increase of the peak value, but the effect of A-fiber input was more prominent. The results show that the pure C-fiber input can reach the cerebellar PC and elicit characteristic simple spike response.     

大鼠前庭内侧核在前庭—交感反应中的作用

实验在氯醛糖和尿酯混合麻醉的大鼠上进行。在内脏大神经上记录刺激同侧前庭神经进入脑干处的交感反应。电刺激前庭神经可在同侧内脏大神经引出—明确的叠加反应,其平均潜伏期为45.8±6.98ms,时程为55.21±5.35ms。增加刺激强度,反应幅度也增加,但潜伏期不变。用前庭内侧核(NVM)的片层场电位作为指标并选择其相位倒转处作刺激点,可在同侧内脏大神经记录到潜伏期为32ms 的叠加反应,而同一动物刺激前庭神经入脑处时内脏大神经反应的潜伏期为43ms。在 NVM 头端损毁后,此前庭-交感反应明显减小,再损毁尾端 NVM 后,此反应消失。损毁 Deiters 核对前庭-交感反应无影响。这些结果表明 NVM在内脏大神经记录到的前庭-交感反应中是一重要的中继站。     

Baroreflexes of the rat. V. Tetanus-induced potentiation of ADN A-fiber responses at the NTS

In a long-term neuromuscular blocked (NMB) rat preparation, tetanic stimulation of the aortic depressor nerve (ADN) enhanced the A-fiber evoked responses (ERs) in the cardiovascular region, the nucleus of the solitary tract (dmNTS). The potentiation persisted for at least several hours and may be a mechanism for adaptive adjustment of the gain of the baroreflex, with functional implications for blood pressure regulation. Using a capacitance electrode, we selectively stimulated A-fibers and acquired a stable 10-h "A-fiber only" ER baseline at the dmNTS. Following baseline, an A+C-fiber activating tetanus was applied to the ADN. The tetanus consisted of 1,000 "high current" pulses (10 trains; 300 mus, 100 Hz, 1 s), with intertrain interval of 9 s. A 10-h A-fiber only posttetanic test phase repeated the stimulus pattern of the baseline. Fourteen tetanus experiments were done in 12 rats. Compared with the baseline before tetanus, the A-fiber ER magnitudes of posttetanus hours were larger [F(13, 247) = 3.407, P < .001]; additionally, the 10-h posttetanus magnitude slopes were more positive than during 10 h before tetanus (df = 13; t = -3.47; P < 0.005); thus, an ADN A+C fiber-activating tetanus produced increases in the magnitude of the A-fiber ERs in the dmNTS that persisted for several hours. In an additional rat, application of an NMDA receptor antagonist, prior to the tetanus, blocked the potentiation effect. The stimulus protocols, magnitude and duration of the effect, and pharmacology resemble associative long-term potentiation (LTP).     

The influence of the auditory cortex on acoustically evoked cerebellar responses in the CF-FM bat,Rhinolophus pearsonic chinesis

1. Acoustically evoked responses of 284 neurons isolated from the cerebellar vermis, hemispheres and paraflocculus of Rhinolophus pearsonic chinesis were studied under free field acoustic stimulation conditions. 2. The BFs of these cerebellar auditory neurons ranged from 24 to 76 kHz but they mostly fall either between 48 and 64 kHz or between 65 and 76 kHz. However, the BF distribution varies among vermal, hemispheric and parafloccular neurons. 3. Threshold curves of cerebellar neurons are generally broad but those tuned to the frequency of the predominant CF component are extremely narrow. 4. Response latencies of cerebellar neurons ranged from 2 to 48 ms suggesting multiple auditory cerebellar pathways. The latency distribution also varies among vermal, hemispheric and parafloccular neurons. 5. Although both the vermis and hemispheres contain a disproportionate number of 65-74 kHz neurons, the response latencies of those neurons isolated from the vermis are scattered over a wide range of 2.2-28 ms while those neurons isolated from the hemispheres are generally stabilized between 5 and 12 ms. 6. Electrical stimulation of the auditory cortex evokes discharges from a recorded cerebellar auditory neuron. Cortical stimulation also facilitates the response of an acoustically evoked cerebellar neuron by increasing its number of impulses. The degree of facilitation is dependent upon the amplitude of the acoustic stimulus. 7. For a given electrical and acoustic stimulation condition, the facilitative latency and the degree of facilitation varied with the interstimulus interval. Among 23 neurons studied, most of them (19 neurons, 82.6%) had a maximal facilitative latency between 2 and 10 ms. 8. By examining the difference in the facilitative effect in each isolated cerebellar auditory neuron before and after a topical application of local anesthetic, procaine, onto the point of electrical stimulation in the auditory cortex, we found that the facilitative pathways to vermal and hemispheric neurons may be different from the pathway to parafloccular neurons. 9. Possible auditory pathways to different parts of the cerebellum are discussed in relation to the wide range of recorded response latencies. 10. The facilitative influence of the auditory cortex on the cerebellar auditory neurons is assumed to enhance the cerebellar role in acoustic motor orientation.     

电刺激大鼠巨细胞网状核对小脑浦肯野细胞自发和诱发电活动的影响

本研究在麻醉并制动的大鼠上观察了电刺激巨细胞网状核(Gi)对小脑浦肯野细胞(PC)自发及诱发简单锋电位的影响。结果如下:(1)刺激Gi可使PC的简单锋电位出现潜伏期小于20ms的抑制性或兴奋性反应,并以抑制性反应为主。抑制性反应持续40-100ms,而兴奋性反应的时程可达200ms以上;(2)注射5-HT_2型受体阻断剂methysergide可以减弱或阻断电刺激Gi对PC自发简单锋电位的抑制作用;(3)条件性Gi刺激可以显著压抑或加强由刺激对侧大脑皮层感觉运动区引起的PC诱发简单锋电位反应。以上结果说明:在大鼠存在Gi-小脑通路,这一通路中的部分纤维是5-HT能的。Gi-小脑纤维可能通过突触和/或非经典突触的化学传递方式对PC的电活动产生某种调制性的影响。推测Gi-小脑传入纤维投射可能在某些小脑功能活动,如肌紧张及姿势的调节等方面发挥重要作用。     

刺激PAG对C纤维传入诱发皮层电反应的影响

电刺激中脑导水管周围灰质(Periaqueductal Gray,PAG)对 C 类纤维传入引起的体感皮层诱发电位(C-CEP)和脊髓背表面电位(C-SSP)均有明显的抑制作用,对前者的作用更大。在脊髓背表面滴加赛庚啶后,刺激 PAG 对 C-SSP 的抑制变得不明显,表明 PAG下行抑制通路被阻断;但刺激 PAG 对 C-CEP 抑制仍明显,仅稍减小。提示 PAG 除了通过下行通路以外,可能还通过上行通路抑制 C-CEP。在脊髓背表面滴加赛庚啶后,静脉注射纳洛酮和赛庚啶可明显减弱电刺激 PAG 对 C-CEP 的抑制作用,提示内源性阿片样物质和5-羟色胺可能是上行抑制通路中主要的神经递质。
