高效氯氰菊酯对大鼠海马CA3区神经元电压门控钾通道的影响

利用全细胞膜片钳技术,在急性分离的新生大鼠海马CA3区锥体细胞上研究高效氯氰菊酯的两种组分高顺氯氰菊酯和高反氯氰菊酯对瞬时外向钾电流（transient outward potassiumcurrent,IA）和延迟整流钾电流（delayed rectifier potassiumcurrent,Ik）的影响。高顺氯氰菊酯使IA增大,而高反氯氰菊酯则使IA减小。高顺和高反氯氰菊酯均使IA激活曲线左移,反式结构还可促进IA的失活。高顺和高反氯氰菊酯均使IK减小,并使其激活曲线左移,而对IK的失活过程无影响,高反氯氰菊酯可使IK失活后恢复过程延长。结果表明,瞬时外向钾通道和延迟整流钾通道同样是高效氯氰菊酯的作用靶点,这可能是高效氯氰菊酯对哺乳动物产生毒性作用的原因之一。     

二氧化硫衍生物对大鼠背根神经元瞬间外向钾电流和延迟整流钾电流的影响

运用全细胞膜片钳技术研究二氧化硫衍生物对大鼠背根神经元瞬间外向钾电流(IA和ID)和延迟整流钾电流(IK)的影响。结果发现二氧化硫衍生物剂量依赖性地增大钾通道的电导,电压依赖性地增大钾电流的幅度,且这种增大作用部分可逆。二氧化硫非常显著地使延迟整流钾电流的激活过程向超极化方向移动,使瞬间外向钾电流的失活过程向去极化方向移动。10μmol/L二氧化硫衍生物作用前后,延迟整流钾电流的半数激活电压分别是(20.3±2.1)mV和(15.0±1.5)mV;IA和ID的半数失活电压分别朝去极化方向移动了6mV和7.4mV。这些结果表明二氧化硫改变了钾通道的特性,改变了神经元的兴奋性。

多不饱和脂肪酸对成年雪貂心肌钾通道的作用

本研究是在成年雪貂的心肌上研究多不饱和脂肪酸（PUFA）对电压门控钾通道的效应。我们观察到,n-3 PUFA能抑制短时性外向钾电流（Ito)和延迟整流钾电流（IK),而对内向整流钾电流（IK1）则没有明显影响。二十二碳六烯酸（DHA）对Ito和Ik能产生浓度依赖性的抑制作用,其IC50分别为7.5和20μmol/L,但不影响IK1。二十碳五烯酸（EPA）对这三种钾通道的作用与DHA相似。花生四烯酸（5或10μmol/L)先引起IK的抑制,然后引起IK,AA的激活;用环氧合酶抑制剂消炎痛可以阻断花生四烯酸激活IK,AA的作用。不具有抗心律失常作用的单不饱和脂肪酸和饱和脂肪酸都不明显影响这些钾通道的活性。上述实验结果证明,n-3 PUFA能抑制心肌细胞的Ito和IK,但和我们以前报道的PUFA对心肌钠电流和钙电流的作用相比,其对Ito和IK抑制作用的效能较低。n-3 PUFA的抗心律失常效应可能与它们抑制心肌钠、钙、钾通道的作用有关。

Characterization of two distinct depolarization-activated K+ currents in isolated adult rat ventricular myocytes

Depolarization-activated outward K+ currents in isolated adult rat ventricular myocytes were characterized using the whole-cell variation of the patch-clamp recording technique. During brief depolarizations to potentials positive to -40 mV, Ca(2+)-independent outward K+ currents in these cells rise to a transient peak, followed by a slower decay to an apparent plateau. The analyses completed here reveal that the observed outward current waveforms result from the activation of two kinetically distinct voltage-dependent K+ currents: one that activates and inactivates rapidly, and one that activates and inactivates slowly, on membrane depolarization. These currents are referred to here as Ito (transient outward) and IK (delayed rectifier), respectively, because their properties are similar (although not identical) to these K+ current types in other cells. Although the voltage dependences of Ito and IK activation are similar, Ito activates approximately 10-fold and inactivates approximately 30-fold more rapidly than IK at all test potentials. In the composite current waveforms measured during brief depolarizations, therefore, the peak current predominantly reflects Ito, whereas IK is the primary determinant of the plateau. There are also marked differences in the voltage dependences of steady-state inactivation of these two K+ currents: IK undergoes steady-state inactivation at all potentials positive to -120 mV, and is 50% inactivated at -69 mV; Ito, in contrast, is insensitive to steady-state inactivation at membrane potentials negative to -50 mV. In addition, Ito recovers from steady-state inactivation faster than IK: at -90 mV, for example, approximately 70% recovery from the inactivation produced at -20 mV is observed within 20 ms for Ito; IK recovers approximately 25-fold more slowly. The pharmacological properties of Ito and IK are also distinct: 4-aminopyridine preferentially attenuates Ito, and tetraethylammonium suppresses predominantly IK. The voltage- and time-dependent properties of these currents are interpreted here in terms of a model in which Ito underlies the initial, rapid repolarization phase of the action potential (AP), and IK is responsible for the slower phase of AP repolarization back to the resting membrane potential, in adult rat ventricular myocytes.     

4-Aminopyridine and the early outward current of sheep cardiac Purkinje fibers

We have studied the effects of the potassium-blocking agent 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) on the action potential and membrane currents of the sheep cardiac Purkinje fiber. 4-AP slowed the rate of phase 1 repolarization and shifted the plateau of the action potential to less negative potentials. In the presence of 4-AP, the substitution of sodium methylsulfate or methanesulfonate for the NaCl of Tyrode's solution further slowed the rate of phase 1 repolarization, even though chloride replacement has no effect on the untreated preparation. In voltage clamp experiments, 4-AP rapidly and reversibly reduced the early peak of outward current that is seen when the Purkinje fiber membrane is voltage-clamped to potentials positive to -20 mV. In addition, 4-AP reduced the steady outward current seen at the end of clamp steps positive to -40 mV. 4-AP did not appear to change the slow inward current observed over the range of -60 to -40 mV, nor did it greatly change the current tails that have been used as a measure of the slow inward conductance at more positive potentials. 4-AP did not block the inward rectifying potassium currents, IK1 and IK2. A phasic outward current component that was insensitive to 4-AP was reduced by chloride replacement. We conclude that the early outward current has two components: a chloride-sensitive component plus a 4-AP-sensitive component. Since a portion of the steady-state current was sensitive to 4-AP, the early outward current either does not fully inactivate or 4-AP blocks a component of time-independent background current.     

A delayed rectifier current is modulated by the circadian pacemaker in Bulla

Basal retinal neurons of the marine mollusc Bulla gouldiana continue to express a circadian modulation of their membrane conductance for at least two cycles in cell culture. Voltage-dependent currents of these pacemaker cells were recorded using the whole-cell perforated patch-clamp technique to characterize outward currents and investigate their putative circadian modulation. Three components of the outward potassium current were identified. A transient outward current (IA) was activated after depolarization from holding potentials greater than -30 mV, inactivated with a time constant of 50 ms, and partially blocked by 4-aminopyridine (1-5 mM). A Ca(2+)-dependent potassium current (IK(Ca)) was activated by depolarization to potentials more positive than -10 mV and was blocked by removing Ca2+ from the bath or by applying the Ca2+ channel blockers Cd2+ (0.1-0.2 mM) and Ni2+ (1-5 mM). A sustained Ca(2+)-independent current component including the delayed rectifier current (IK) was recorded at potentials positive to -20 mV in the absence of extracellular Na+ and Ca2+ and was partially blocked by tetraethylammonium chloride (TEA, 30mM). Whole-cell currents recorded before and after the projected dawn and normalized to the cell capacitance revealed a circadian modulation of the delayed rectifier current (IK). However, the IA and IK(Ca) currents were not affected by the circadian pacemaker.     

Microelectrode measurement of cell membrane potential in isolated hepatocytes attached to collagen

Isolated spherical rat hepatocytes attached to collagen-coated cover slips generate a mean membrane potential (Em) of -78 +/- 9 mV as measured with high-resistance microelectrodes. The recordings were biphasic and were stable for upto 20 minutes. The correlation between external potassium concentration and Em was not linear. Several potassium-channel blockers did not effect the membrane potential. Addition of ouabain added to the incubation solution slowly depolarized the cells. The results indicate a high potassium permeability of the isolated spherical hepatocytes attached to collagen.     

Voltage-dependent inactivation of the potassium current of embryonic chick hepatocytes

The whole-cell patch electrode voltage clamp technique was used to study the inactivation properties of the delayed rectifying potassium current of single cultured embryonic chick hepatocytes at 20 degrees C. The potassium current activates maximally within 250-500 ms of membrane depolarization, after which it decays with a monoexponential time course. Both steady-state activation and inactivation are voltage dependent. Steady-state inactivation declines from 100% at -5 mV to 0 near -70 mV. with half inactivation at -41 mV. At the resting potential (EM) of these cells (-21.5 +/- 6.0 mV, n = 36) 6-18% of the IK channels are not inactivated and less than 5% are open. Development and removal of inactivation follow single exponential time courses. The inactivation time constant attains a maximum of around 30 s at -35 mV and is sharply voltage dependent at the EM of these cells. Measurement of EM under current clamp shows random oscillations of 5-10 mV amplitude. We suggest that the voltage- and time-dependent properties of IK, in tandem with a time- and voltage-independent, non-selective current also seen here, would provide the mechanism for a fluctuating EM.     

慢性间歇性低氧降低急性缺氧对大鼠肺动脉平滑肌细胞膜上电压门控性钾通道的抑制

为了从离子通道水平上探讨机体低氧适应的离子机制,本实验将雄性 SD 大鼠随机分为常氧对照组和慢性间歇性低氧组[氧浓度(10 ± 0.5) %, 间断缺氧每天 8 h]。用酶解法急性分离单个大鼠肺内动脉平滑肌细胞(pulmonary artery smoothmuscle cells, PASMCs),以全细胞膜片钳技术记录 PASMCs 膜上的电压门控性钾通道 (voltage-gated potassium channel, KV) 电流,观察急性缺氧对慢性间歇性低氧大鼠 PASMCs 的 KV 的影响, 为机体适应低氧能力提供实验依据。结果显示:⑴常氧对照组在电流钳下,急性缺氧可使膜电位明显去极化(由-47.2 ±2.6 mV 去极到 -26.7 ±1.2 mV ); 在电压钳下, 急性缺氧可显著抑制 KV电流( 60 mV 时, KV电流密度从 153.4 ± 9.5 pA/pF降到 70.1 ± 10.6 pA/pF), 峰电流的抑制率为(57.6 ± 3.3) %, 电流-电压关系曲线向右下移。⑵慢性间歇性低氧组KV电流密度随低氧时间延长而逐渐减少(慢性低氧10 d后就有显著性意义),电流- 电压关系曲线逐渐右下移。⑶急性缺氧对慢性间歇性低氧大鼠PASMCs KV电流的抑制作用随慢性间歇性低氧时间延长而逐渐减弱。上述观察结果提示慢性间歇性低氧减弱急性缺氧对 KV 的抑制, 这可能是机体低氧适应的一种重要机制。     

Voltage gated ionic channels in rat cultured astrocytes, reactive astrocytes and an astrocyte-oligodendrocyte progenitor cell

Astrocytes (both type 1 and type 2), cultured from the central nervous system of newborn or 7 day old rats show voltage gated sodium and potassium channels that are activated when the membrane is depolarized to greater than -40 mV. The sodium channels in these cells have an h-infinity curve similar to that of nodal membranes but the activation (peak current-voltage) curves are shifted along the voltage axis by about +30 mV. These sodium currents are blocked only by high concentrations of tetrodotoxin. The voltage activated potassium currents in both types of astrocyte show at least two components; an inactivating component that is suppressed at holding potentials of greater than -40 mV and a persistent, non-inactivating current. Several types of single channel currents were observed in outside-out membrane patches from type 2 astrocytes. One type of potassium channel showed inactivation on depolarization and may contribute to the whole-cell inactivating current. In contrast, oligodendrocytes showed no obvious voltage gated membrane channels. The properties of the type 2 astrocyte-oligodendrocyte progenitor cell were investigated in two ways: 1) by examination of cells just beginning to differentiate along the "electrically silent" oligodendrocyte pathway or 2) by recording from progenitor cells cultured for 24 hours in the presence of cycloheximide to block the appearance of new membrane channels. In both cases, voltage gated inward (sodium) and outward (potassium) currents were noted. The outward current response showed both an inactivating and a non-inactivating component. Similar voltage activated inward and outward membrane currents were noted in reactive astrocytes freshly isolated (3-6 hours) from lesioned areas of adult rat brains.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
