人是从那里来的? 回答这个问题,你也许会说这有什么困难——人是从古猿变来的;甚至你还会进一步说,在这个从猿到人的转变过程中,劳动起着决定性的作用。然而这个现在看来比较明了的道理,恰是经历了多么漫长的认识过程才达到的呵!现在让我们首先来谈谈,远古的人们是怎样认识自己的起源的。最初的原始人可能还想不到自己的起源在人类诞生的最早时期,“最初的、从动物界分离出来的人,在一切本质方面是和动物本身一样不自由的”(恩格斯:《反杜林论》),这些最初的原始人为艰苦 相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) increases pancreatic insulin secretion via a direct action on pancreatic beta-cells. A high density of GLP-1-containing neurons and receptors is also present in brain stem vagal circuits; therefore, the aims of the present study were to investigate 1) whether identified pancreas-projecting neurons of the dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV) respond to exogenously applied GLP-1, 2) the mechanism(s) of action of GLP-1, and 3) whether the GLP-1-responsive neurons (putative modulators of endocrine secretion) could be distinguished from DMV neurons responsive to peptides that modulate pancreatic exocrine secretion, specifically pancreatic polypeptide (PP). Whole cell recordings were made from identified pancreas-projecting DMV neurons. Perfusion with GLP-1 induced a concentration-dependent depolarization in approximately 50% of pancreas-projecting DMV neurons. The GLP-1 effects were mimicked by exendin-4 and antagonized by exendin-(9-39). In approximately 60% of the responsive neurons, the GLP-1-induced depolarization was reduced by tetrodotoxin (1 microM), suggesting both pre- and postsynaptic sites of action. Indeed, the GLP-1 effects were mediated by actions on potassium currents, GABA-induced currents, or both. Importantly, neurons excited by GLP-1 were unresponsive to PP and vice versa. These data indicate that 1) GLP-1 may act on DMV neurons to control pancreatic endocrine secretion, 2) the effects of GLP-1 on pancreas-projecting DMV neurons are mediated both via a direct excitation of their membrane as well as via an effect on local circuits, and 3) the GLP-1-responsive neurons (i.e., putative endocrine secretion-controlling neurons) could be distinguished from neurons responsive to PP (i.e., putative exocrine secretion-controlling neurons). 相似文献

This study focuses on the effects of K+ depolarization on neurite elongation of identified Helisoma neurons isolated into culture. Application of K+ to the external medium caused a dose-dependent suppression of neurite elongation. Lower concentrations of K+ were associated with a slowing in the rate of neurite elongation, whereas higher concentrations produced neurite retraction. Surprisingly, the effects of K+ depolarization were transient, and neurite elongation rates recovered towards control levels within 90 min even though the neurons remained in high-K+ solution. Identified neurons differed in the magnitude of their response to K+ depolarization; neurite elongation of buccal neuron B4 was inhibited at 5 mM K+, but elongation in B5 and B19 was not affected until concentrations of 25 mM. Electrophysiologically, K+ application evoked a brief period (5-10 s) of action potential activity that was followed by a steady-state membrane depolarization lasting 2 h or more. The changes in neurite elongation induced by K+ depolarization occurred in isolated growth cones severed from their neurites and were blocked by application of calcium antagonists. Intracellular free Ca2+ levels in growth cones of B4 and B19 increased and then decreased during the 90-min depolarization, corresponding to the changes in elongation. B4 and B19 showed differences in the magnitude, time course, and spatial distribution of the Ca2+ change during depolarization, reflecting their different sensitivities to depolarization. 相似文献

The dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV) receives more noradrenergic terminals than any other medullary nucleus; few studies, however, have examined the effects of norepinephrine (NE) on DMV neurons. Using whole cell recordings in thin slices, we determined the effects of NE on identified gastric-projecting DMV neurons. Twenty-five percent of DMV neurons were unresponsive to NE, whereas the remaining 75% responded to NE with either an excitation (49%), an inhibition (26%), or an inhibition followed by an excitation (4%). Antrum/pylorus- and corpus-projecting neurons responded to NE with a similar percentage of excitatory (49 and 59%, respectively) and inhibitory (20% for both groups) responses. A lower percentage of excitatory (37%) and a higher percentage of inhibitory (36%) responses were, however, observed in fundus-projecting neurons. In all groups, pretreatment with prazosin or phenylephrine antagonized or mimicked the NE-induced excitation, respectively. Pretreatment with yohimbine or UK-14304 antagonized or mimicked the NE-induced inhibition, respectively. These data suggest that NE depolarization is mediated by alpha(1)-adrenoceptors, whereas NE hyperpolarization is mediated by alpha(2)-adrenoceptors. In 16 neurons depolarized by NE, amplitude of the action potential afterhyperpolarization (AHP) and its kinetics of decay (tau) were significantly reduced vs. control. No differences were found on the amplitude and tau of AHP in neurons hyperpolarized by NE. Using immunohistochemical techniques, we found that the distribution of tyrosine hydroxylase fibers within the DMV was significantly different within the mediolateral extent of DMV; however, distribution of cells responding to NE did not show a specific pattern of localization. 相似文献

Histamine, released from mast cells, can modulate the activity of intrinsic neurons in the guinea pig cardiac plexus. The present study examined the ionic mechanisms underlying the histamine-induced responses in these cells. Histamine evokes a small membrane depolarization and an increase in neuronal excitability. Using intracellular voltage recording from individual intracardiac neurons, we were able to demonstrate that removal of extracellular sodium reduced the membrane depolarization, whereas inhibition of K+ channels by 1 mM Ba2+, 2 mM Cs+, or 5 mM tetraethylammonium had no effect. The depolarization was also not inhibited by either 10 microM Gd3+ or a reduced Cl- solution. The histamine-induced increase in excitability was unaffected by K+ channel inhibitors; however, it was reduced by either blockage of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels with 200 microM Cd2+ or replacement of extracellular Ca2+ with Mg2+. Conversely, alterations in intracellular calcium with thapsigargin or caffeine did not inhibit the histamine-induced effects. However, in cells treated with both thapsigargin and caffeine to deplete internal calcium stores, the histamine-induced increase in excitability was decreased. Treatment with the phospholipase C inhibitor U73122 also prevented both the depolarization and the increase in excitability. From these data, we conclude that histamine, via activation of H1 receptors, activates phospholipase C, which results in 1) the opening of a nonspecific cation channel, such as a transient receptor potential channel 4 or 5; and 2) in combination with either the influx of Ca2+ through voltage-gated channels or the release of internal calcium stores leads to an increase in excitability. 相似文献

Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) internalize into nerve terminals and block the release of neurotransmitters into the synapse. BoNTs are widely used as a therapeutic agent for treatment of movement disorders and recently gained more attention as a biological weapon. Consequently, there is strong interest to develop a cell-based assay platform to screen the toxicity and bioactivity of the BoNTs. In this study, we present an in vitro screening assay for BoNT/A based on differentiated human embryonal carcinoma stem (NT2) cells. The human NT2 cells fully differentiated into mature neurons that display immunoreactivity to cytoskeletal markers (βIII-tubulin and MAP2) and presynaptic proteins (synapsin and synaptotagmin I). We showed that the human NT2 cells undergo a process of exo-endocytotic synaptic vesicle recycling upon depolarization with high K(+) buffer. By employing an antibody directed against light chain of BoNT/A, we detected internalized toxin as a punctate staining along the neurites of the NT2 neurons. Using well-established methods of synaptic vesicle exocytosis assay (luminal synaptotagmin I and FM1-43 imaging) we show that pre-incubation with BoNT/A resulted in a blockade of vesicle release from human NT2 neurons in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, this blocking effect of BoNT/A was abolished by pre-adsorbing the toxin with neutralizing antibody. In a proof of principle, we demonstrate that our cell culture assay for vesicle release is sensitive to BoNT/A and the activity of BoNT/A can be blocked by specific neutralizing antibodies. Overall our data suggest that human NT2 neurons are suitable for large scale screening of botulinum bioactivity. 相似文献

The modulatory effects of Zn(2+) and other divalent cations on the ATP-induced responses of preganglionic neurons acutely dissociated from the rat dorsal motor nucleus of the vagus (DMV) were examined using a nystatin-perforated patch technique under voltage-clamp. DMV neurons were identified by back-filling of DiI placed on the vagal bundle at the neck. Zn(2+) exerts a concentration-dependent effect on P2X receptor-mediated current (I(ATP)): a potentiation by low concentrations of Zn(2+) (< or = 50 microM) and an inhibition by high concentrations (> 50 microM). Inhibition of the ATP response was associated with a prolongation of the rising phase of I(ATP). Cu(2+) mimicked Zn(2+) regarding the biphasic modulation of I(ATP). On the other hand, Ni(2+) potentiated, but failed to inhibit, the ATP response even at a concentration of 3 mM. Quantitative RT-PCR revealed the similarity of P2X(2) mRNA expression between the DMV and superior cervical ganglion (SCG) but not in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and hypoglossal nucleus (XII). The results from the electrophysiological and molecular approaches suggest that functional P2X receptors expressed in DMV neurons are characterized mainly by the P2X(2) and P2X(2/6) subtype. DMV neurons possess similar P2X receptor characteristics to SCG neurons. 相似文献

Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (1,4,5-InsP3) was perfused into rat dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons by whole-cell patch-clamp electrodes, while measuring the membrane potential. This operation evoked a transient (2-3 min) membrane hyperpolarization of about -15 mV (from -42 mV) followed by a depolarization. The membrane hyperpolarization was abolished when 30 mM EGTA was perfused together with 1,4,5-InsP3 or when 0.2 mM quinine was added to the bath solution. The hyperpolarizing response was enhanced when a low-Ca2+ EGTA-free intracellular solution was used. Two InsP2 isomers induced a different response. Our results suggest that the hyperpolarization is due to 1,4,5-InsP3-induced Ca2+ release which may trigger Ca-sensitive K+ channels to open. Present results show that cultured DRG neurons are able to respond to 1,4,5-InsP3 perfusion in the whole-cell configuration. 相似文献

(-)-[3H]Desmethoxyverapamil ((-)-DMV) binds saturably to homogenates of the osteoblast-like cell lines UMR 106 and ROS 17/2.8 with KD values of 45 and 61 nM and Bmax values of 6.0 and 5 pmol/mg protein, respectively. Binding is stereoselective with (-)-DMV 8-10 times more potent than (+)-DMV. None of the dihydropyridine or benzothiazepine Ca2+ antagonists examined affect (-)-[3H]DMV binding. Monovalent cations such as Li+, Na+, and K+ inhibit (-)[3H]DMV binding in the 100-400 mM range. Divalent cations such as Ba2+, Sr2+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ are effective binding inhibitors in the 2-5 mM range. ROS 17/2.8 cells express a channel on the apical plasma membrane which conducts Ba2+ and Ca2+. With 110 mM BaCl2 or CaCl2 as charge carriers the single channel conductance is 3-5 picosiemens. In cell-excised patches the channel selects for Ba2+ over Na+ 3.3:1. In the absence of divalent ions the channel conducts Na+ ions with a single channel conductance of 13 picosiemens. This Na+ conductance decreases with physiological levels of Ca2+. The channel appears related to the (-)-[3H]DMV binding site, since its conductance is blocked by verapamil in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, DMV blocks the channel stereoselectively with relative potencies of the isomers corresponding to their affinities for the binding site. The dihydropyridine drugs BAY K 8644 or (+)-202-791 do not affect channel opening. These binding and biophysical data indicate that osteoblast cells have a phenylalkylamine receptor associated with a Ca2+ channel. 相似文献

The effects of Lathyrus sativus neurotoxin were studied on the cell membrane potential and cellular cation composition in Retzius nerve cells of the leech Haemopis sanguisuga, with ion-selective microelectrodes using liquid ion-exchangers. Bath application of 10(-4) mol/l Lathyrus sativus neurotoxin for 3 min depolarized the cell membrane potential and decreased the input resistance of directly polarized membrane in Retzius neurons. At the same time the cellular Na+ activity increased and cellular K+ activity decreased with slow but complete recovery, while the intracellular Ca2+ concentration was not changed. Na+-free Ringer solutions inhibited the depolarizing effect of the neurotoxin on the cell membrane potential. Zero-Ca2+ Ringer solution or Ni2+-Ringer solution had no influence on the depolarizing effect of the neurotoxin on the cell membrane potential. It is obvious that the increase in membrane conductance and depolarization of the cell membrane potential are due to an influx of Na+ into the cell accompanied by an efflux of K+ from the cell. 相似文献

When the nodal end of an internodal cell of Chara corallina was subjected to a pulse treatment with artificial cell sap, a depolarization lasted in artificial pond water. This depolarization could also be induced by pulse treatment with KCl solution, indicating that K+ in the artificial cell sap is responsible (K+ -induced depolarization). The depolarization was prolonged in the presence of 2 mM KCl and the prolonged depolarization was terminated by supplementing with either CaCl2, MgCl2 or NaCl. These results supported the hypothesis that K+ released from the killed cell is responsible for generation of the wound-induced membrane depolarization. 相似文献
