Water And Electrolyte Secretion

The study of hepatocellular water and electrolyte secretion has been hampered because of the inaccessibility of the hepatobiliary secretory lumen, the canaliculus. The advent of novel experimental models has allowed the application of electrophysiological techniques to investigate the ionic basis of hepatocellular secretion. The "hepatocyte couplet" isolated from the liver in primary monolayer cultures consists of two hepatocytes which enclose a single canalicular unit. The canaliculus of the couplet appears to behave as it would in vivo, exhibiting both secretory and contractile activity. Intracellular microelectrode recordings from this functional unit have permitted direct electrophysiological assessment of cellular and canalicular potentials and measurement of individual ion conductances across the basolateral membrane surface. Further, the application of patch-clamp electrophysiology to study hepatocellular ion transport pathways has characterized individual channel proteins. Intracellular and (or) patch-clamp electrophysiology has elucidated the ion conductance changes activated by bile salts like taurocholate, neurotransmitters like adrenaline, and hormones such as glucagon. These innovative approaches hold much promise in the future study of the ionic basis of hepatocellular secretion.

Sodium Ion Channels

Novel α-aminoamide derivatives containing different benzoheterocyclics moiety were synthesized and evaluated as voltage-gated sodium ion channels blocks the treatment of pain. Compounds 6a, 6e, and 6f containing the benzofuran group displayed more potent in vivo analgesic activity than ralfinamide in both the formalin test and the writhing assay. Interestingly, they also exhibited potent in vitro anti-Nav1.7 and anti-Nav1.8 activity in the patch-clamp electrophysiology assay. Therefore, compounds 6a, 6e, and 6f, which have inhibitory potency for two pain-related Nav targets, could serve as new leads for the development of analgesic medicines.

Patch clamp electrophysiology has transformed research in the life sciences over the last few decades. Since their inception, automatic patch clamp platforms have evolved considerably, demonstrating the capability to address both voltage- and ligand-gated channels, and showing the potential to play a pivotal role in drug discovery and biomedical research. Unfortunately, the cell suspension assays to which early systems were limited cannot recreate biologically relevant cellular environments, or capture higher order aspects of synaptic physiology and network dynamics. In vivo patch clamp electrophysiology has the potential to yield more biologically complex information and be especially useful in reverse engineering the molecular and cellular mechanisms of single-cell and network neuronal computation, while capturing important aspects of human disease mechanisms and possible therapeutic strategies. Unfortunately, it is a difficult procedure with a steep learning curve, which has restricted dissemination of the technique. Luckily, in vivo patch clamp electrophysiology seems particularly amenable to robotic automation. In this review, we document the development of automated patch clamp technology, from early systems based on multi-well plates through to automated planar-array platforms, and modern robotic platforms capable of performing two-photon targeted whole-cell electrophysiological recordings in vivo.

Сократительная деятельность матки до настоящего времени остается актуальным вопросом фундаментальных исследований, поскольку отсутствуют единые представления о биомеханике маточного сокращения, необходимые для профилактики родового и акушерского травматизма. Цель работы - оценка ограничений и возможностей экспериментальных моделей, предназначенных для изучения сократительной активности миометрия. Методика. Основными экспериментальными подходами к изучению сократительной активности матки являлись исследования in vitro, in situ, in vivo, in silico, а также их сочетание. Результаты. В статье рассмотрены исследования, в которых использованы различные сочетания экспериментальных подходов, обсуждаются результаты, полученные при моделировании в экспериментах, обсуждаются результаты изучения синхронизации сокращения отделов матки на различных моделях, а также результаты исследования пейсмейкерной активности миометрия и возможность экстраполяции полученных данных на человека. В связи с активным развитием компьютерных технологий в статье поднимается вопрос об их использовании в моделировании сократительной активности матки человека. Заключение. Делается заключение, что комплексный подход, включающий электромиографические, биохимические и морфологические исследования в хроническом эксперименте, является наиболее адекватным для изучения сократительной активности миометрия и функционального состояния нормально развитых и отставших в развитии плодов, что позволит разработать комплексные методы профилактики родового и акушерского травматизма.Uterine contractile activity remains an important issue of fundamental research as there is no single view of the biomechanics of uterine contraction necessary for the prevention of parturition and obstetric trauma until now. The aim of the review was to assess advantages and limitations of experimental models described in the literature for study uterine contractile activity. At the present time main experimental approaches for study myometrium contractile activity are research in vitro, in situ, in vivo, in silico and the their combinations. The literature presents experimental approaches, different models of uterine contractions synchronization and study of myometrium pacemaker activity. Due to active development of computer technologies there is a need to model human uterine contractile activity with a simplified anatomy. The authors propose that combination of electromyographic, biochemical and morphological methods in chronic experiment is the most correct and appropriate direction for the assessment of the myometrium contractile activity and functional state of normally developed and growth restricted fetuses.

We used patch-clamp electrophysiology to investigate regulation of the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC) by endothelin-1 (ET-1) in isolated, split-open rat collecting ducts. ET-1 significantly decreases ENaC open probability by about threefold within 5 min. ET-1 decreases ENaC activity through basolateral membrane ETB but not ETA receptors. In rat collecting duct, we find no role for phospholipase C or protein kinase C in the rapid response of ENaC to ET-1. ET-1, although, does activate src family tyrosine kinases and their downstream MAPK1/2 effector cascade in renal principal cells. Both src kinases and MAPK1/2 signaling are necessary for ET-1-dependent decreases in ENaC open probability in the split-open collecting duct. We conclude that ET-1 in a physiologically relevant manner rapidly suppresses ENaC activity in native, mammalian principal cells. These findings may provide a potential mechanism for the natriuresis observed in vivo in response to ET-1, as well as a potential cause for the salt-sensitive hypertension found in animals with impaired endothelin signaling.
