对于膜片钳记录,电流钳模式使用玻璃微量(我们用硼硅玻璃管材外径1.5毫米和0.225毫米壁厚)洋溢着细胞内组成的解决方案(毫米)125 K -葡萄糖酸,氯化钾10 0.5 EGT,10 HEPES,与氢氧化钾(给人一种吸管约5MΩ电阻)滴定至pH 7.4。请注意电压钳记录等其他实验条件下,需要不同的解决方案。如果需要注射染料,加入荧光探针(我们使用10毫米的Alexa Fluor 594)或示踪分子(3%Neurobiotin)。微管插入持有人,确保参比电极(氯化银线)与细胞外液在录音室接触。
施加压力的微量和目标的GFP表达细胞(我们用40倍水浸泡的目的; NA 1.25)。坐落在神经节细胞层(直接在视网膜的电流方向表面之下)在内核层的近端部分(编制内深约55-75微米),以及无长突细胞组织。微量的靶细胞,内界膜(胶质endfeet鞘)在视网膜接触前表面有被击穿。是公认的成功渗透赶出从微管尖和分离从底层的视网膜组织内界膜红外线传输IR - CCD相机拍摄的图像上,可以观察细胞内的解决方案。
