Scanning electron microscopy and gramicidin patch clamp recordings of microvillous receptor neurons dissociated from the rat vomeronasal organ 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Vomeronasal organs from female rats were dissociated and isolated
microvillous receptor neurons were studied. The isolated receptor neurons
kept the typical bipolar shape which they have in situ as observed by
scanning electron microscopy. We applied the perforated patch-clamp
technique using the cation-selective ionophore gramicidin on freshly
isolated and well differentiated receptor neurons. The mean resting
potential was -58+/-14 mV (n=39). The contribution of the sodium pump
current to the resting potential was demonstrated by lowering the K+
concentration in the bath or by application of 100 microM dihydro-ouabain.
The input resistance was in the range of 1-6 GOmega and depolarizing
current pulses of a few pA were sufficient to trigger overshooting action
potentials. In voltage clamp conditions a fast transient sodium inward
current and a sustained outward potassium current were activated by
membrane depolarization. These observations indicate that freshly isolated
vomeronasal receptor neurons of rats can be recorded, using gramicidin,
with little modification of the intracellular content. Their
electrophysiological properties are very similar to those observed in situ.
Four out of eight female vomeronasal receptor cells were depolarized by
diluted rat male urine.

Electrical activity was recorded from single cells in the olfactorybulb when electrically stimulating the medial and lateral olfactorytract and when stimulating the olfactory epithelium with aminoacids. Bulbar units excited by stimulation of the medial olfactorytract were found in the medial and middle parts of the bulb.Neurones in the dorso-lateral part of the bulb were excitedby stimulation of lateral tract. Units inhibited by stimulationof the lateral or medial olfactory tracts had a reversed distributionwith the majority found in the medial or lateral parts of thebulb respectively. The chemicals tested induced changes in thedischarge of units mainly situated in the lateral part of thebulb. 相似文献
