Abstract

哺乳類の神経細胞の形態および機能の高分解能分析は、多くの場合、ニューロンの初代培養物の分析を行った個々の動物の遺伝子型決定を必要とする。遺伝子型を決定する新生マウス、迅速な遺伝子型判定を標識し、そしてこれらのマウスからの脳のニューロンの低密度培養を確立する:我々はのための一連の手順について説明します。個々のマウスは、大人になって持続長期的な識別を可能に入れ墨の標識で標識されている。説明されたプロトコルによる遺伝子型決定は、高速かつ効率的で、かつ信頼性よく、核酸の自動抽出が可能になる。これは、従来の遺伝子型判定のための十分な時間が新生児致死苦しむマウスでは、例えば 、利用できない状況下で有用です。初代ニューロン培養物を、高い空間分解能で画像化実験を可能にし、低密度で生成される。この培養方法は、従来の神経めっきグリアフィーダー層の調製を必要とする。 Protocolは、運動障害DYT1ジストニア(ΔE-torsinAノックインマウス)のマウスモデルにその全体が印加され、神経細胞培養物を、これらのマウスの海馬、大脳皮質および線条体から調製される。このプロトコルは、他の遺伝子の突然変異を有するマウスに、ならびに他の種の動物に適用することができる。さらに、プロトコルの個々の成分は、単離されたサブプロジェクトのために使用することができる。したがって、このプロトコルは、神経科学ではなく、生物学的および医学科学の他の分野だけでなく、幅広い応用を持つことになります。

Skin Prep solution Animal Identification and Marking Systems, Inc. NSP01 This reagent delivers a thin layer of oil that enhances the efficiency of tattooing and prevents tattoo fading, by (information from vendor): 1) preventing non-tattooed skin from being stained temporarily, thereby allowing the quality of a paw pad tattoo to be easily evaluated before the pup is returned to its home cage – the stained skin surface can be confused with the tattooed skin, 2) reducing skin damage during tattooing – softening the skin and lubricating the needle will help the needle penetrate the skin without causing skin damage, and 3) preventing molecular oxygen from entering the skin, thereby reducing inflammatory responses to reactive oxygen species that can be generated.

Matrigel Basement Membrane Matrix solution, Phenol Red-Free BD Biosciences 356237 This is the coating material for coverslips and flasks. 1) To prepare it, thaw the Matrigel Basement Membrane Matrix solution on ice, which usually takes ~1 day. Using a pre-cooled pipette, aliquot the thawed solution into pre-cooled T25 flasks on ice, and store the flasks at -20 °C. To prepare the working Matrigel solution, thaw the aliquotted Matrigel in a flask on ice, dilute 50-fold by adding pre-cooled MEM solution and keep the diluted solution at 4 °C. It is important to pre-cool all cultureware and media that come into contact with Matrigel, except during and after the coating of coverslips, to prevent it from prematurely forming a gel. 2) To coat the glass coverslips or culture flasks with Matrigel, apply the Matrigel solution to the surface. Before plating cells, it is important to completely dry up the surface. For this purpose, it might be helpful to aspirate Matrigel during the cellular centrifugation immediately before plating the cells and to allow enough time for drying.

Fire-polish the tip beforehand to smooth the cut surface and to reduce the internal diameter to 50-80% of the original. Too small a tip will disrupt the cells and reduce cell viability, but too large a tip will decrease the efficiency of trituration.

EQUIPMENT - tattooing
AIMS Animal Identification and Marking Systems, Inc. NEO–9 This Neonate Rodent Tattooing System is an electric system that works by rapidly moving 1- or 3-point tattoo needles vertically into the skin. Activate the tattoo machine once for approximately 0.5 sec, while the tattoo needle tips are kept perpendicular to the skin surface. We prefer three-needle tattooing to maximize the tattooed area, but one-needle tattooing is effective on narrower areas, e.g. the toes, or if fine mechanical control is necessary, e.g. when numbers are tattooed. Two rounds of tattooing at the slowest speed (setting "1" out of 3 steps) are typically sufficient to produce a visible and long-lasting tattoo of the paw pads.

This is followed by final extension at 72 °C for 10 min, and holding at 4 °C.

Automated cell counter, Countess GIBCO-Invitrogen C10310 This automated cell counter separately measures the densities of live and dead cells (non stained and stained by trypan blue, respectively). It is important to know the optimal range of density measurements: the counter that we use has the highest accuracy in the range from 1 x 105 to 4 x 106 cells/ml. If the measured cell density values fall outside the recommended range, adjust the resuspension volume appropriately.
