离子通道与弱精子症

弱精子症是引起男性不育的常见病因之一。随着以精子自身为对象的研究深入,发现离子跨膜转运对精子的生理活动起着重要的作用。离子通道病于20世纪90年代提出,现已逐渐发现临床上许多先天性和/或后天获得性疾病与异常的离子通道有关。因此,关于精子的生理和疾病与离子通道的关系研究逐渐成为当前研究的热点之一。现就近年来与精子运动相关的离子通道,包括阳离子通道和阴离子通道的研究进展作一综述。

hCG/ATP-induced Leydig cell calcium channel reaction at different extracellular calcium ion concentration

Objective: To study the calcium channel reaction of human Leydig cells induced by hCG/ATP at different extracellular calcium ion concentrations. Methods: The Leydig cell calcium ion concentration was examined with laser confocal microscope, when the cells were stimulated with hCG/ATP at different extracellular calcium contrations. Results: With calcium-containing extracellular fluid, the Leydig cells were sensitive to hCG stimulation and when the extracellular fluid was calcium-free, the Leydig cells did not respond to the stimulation. However, the Leydig cells did respond to ATP stimulation no matter the extracellular fluid contained calcium or not. Conclusion: In human Leydig cells, there are calcium channels sensitive to hCG and ATP. The extracellular calcium ion concentration plays an important role in the regulation of Leydig cell metabolism by hCG/ATP.

Modulation of vertebrate neuronal calcium channels by transmitters

A large number of neurotransmitters have now been shown to reduce the amplitude and slow the activation kinetics of whole cell HVA I_Ca in a great diversity of neurons. These transmitters include l-glutamate (AMPA/kainate, metabotropic and NMDA receptors), G AB A (via GABA_B receptors, NA (via α₂ receptors), 5-HT, N A (via α₂ receptors), DA and several peptides. Both whole-cell and single-channel studies have demonstrated that the N-channel is the most common channel type to be blocked by transmitters, although an inhibition of the L-type channel has also occasionally been reported. The suppression of the N-type Ca current was commonly shown to be voltage-dependent, with a relief at large positive voltages. Strong evidence has been put forward showing that the transmitter action is mediated by a G-protein, with GDP-β-S blocking transmitter action, and GTP-γ-S directly inhibiting the Ca channel. Moreover, pertussis toxin blocked the transmitter action in most neurons, and following such block, injection of the G-protein G₀ restored transmitter action. A direct link between the G-protein and the Ca channel has been widely theorized to mediate the action of transmitters on certain neurons. There is also some evidence that certain transmitters in specific neurons mediate calcium channel inhibition through a 2nd messenger, perhaps protein kinase C.Transmitters have also been found, although uncommonly, to inhibit HVA L-type and LVA T-type channels. In addition, an enhancement of both HVA and LVA, Ca currents by transmitters has been demonstrated, and substantial evidence exists for mediation of this action by cAMP.

THE CAIMA SYSTEM

CAIMA is the abbreviation of Computer-Assisted Instant Monitoring drug Administration. CAIMA works on the principle of closed-loop negative feedback. Special programs have been designed to meet the needs of: a) Patients' safety, b) Response level desired, c) Output necessary for actuating the injecting pump. The pump forces the drug solution to enter the body with high precision. The author shows 8-year experience of using CAIMA system in laboratory and in hospital operating rooms. Experimental studies revealed that: CAIMA system attenuates the overshots and undershots usually present in reaction to drug administration, thus saves the drug and thereby causes less side-efiffeets, while the recovery is also much shortened. CAIMA system provides a greater tolerance to extra-stimuli and preserves the body original reactive sensitivity to drug. The homeostasis in animals is better kept with CAIMA than without. Clinically, the arbitrary hypotension during brain surgery with sodium nitroprusside and the control of muscle relaxation in general surgery with muscle relaxants have been successful using CAIMA system.     

Cobalt-dependent potentiation of net inward current density in Helix aspersa neurons.

A low concentration of transition metal ions Co2+ and Ni2+ increases the inward current density in neurons from the land snail Helix aspersa. The currents were measured using a single electrode voltage-clamp/internal perfusion method under conditions in which the external Na+ was replaced by Tris+, the predominant external current carrying cation was Ca2+, and the internal perfusate contained 120 mM Cs+/0 K+; 30 mM tetraethylammonium (TEA) was added externally to block K+ current. In the presence of Co2+ (3 mM) or Ni2+ (0.5 mM) inward Ca2+ currents were stimulated normally by voltage-dependent activation of Ca2+ channels. There was a 5-10% decrease in the rate of rise of the inward current. The principal effect of Co2+ and Ni2+ in increasing the current density seems to be a decrease in the rate at which the inward currents decline during a depolarizing voltage pulse. The results may be due to a decrease in a voltage-dependent or Ca(2+)-dependent outward current and/or an inhibition of Ca2+ channel inactivation. Outward current under these conditions (zero internal K+) was significant and most likely due to Cs+ efflux through the voltage-activated or Ca(2+)-activated nonspecific cation channels. Co2+ is an extremely effective blocker of this outward current. These results are not an artifact of internal perfusion or the special ionic conditions. Intracellular recording of unperfused neurons in normal Helix Ringer's solution showed that the Ca(2+)-dependent action potential duration was increased significantly by low concentrations of Co2+. This result is consistant with the Co(2+)-dependent increase in inward (depolarizing) current seen in voltage-clamp experiments.     

Inward rectifying potassium channels in human malignant glioma cells

Human glioma cells obtained from established cell lines (Tp-276MG, Tp-301MG, Tp-378MG, Tp-483MG and U-251MG) were analyzed for the presence of ion channels with the tight-seal voltage clamp technique. The current-voltage relation revealed a marked inward rectification at hyperpolarizing voltages, due to the presence of inward rectifying K-channels in cells from all studied cell lines. These channels were conducting when the membrane potential was more negative than the K-equilibrium potential. The slope conductance for the inward K-currents (g_Ki) was affected both by [K⁺]_i and [K⁺]₀. g_Ki was proportional to [K⁺]₀ raised to 0.35 or 0.50, of which the larger value was measured in the presence of low [K⁺]_i (25mM). The rectification was not significantly different in cells perfused with Mg-free EDTA-buffered internal solution. Tl⁺ was 3.5 times more permaant than K⁺. g_ki was blocked by Cs⁺ (1 mM) in a voltage-dependent way (more effective in the hyperpolarized membrane), and by Na⁺ (154 mM) depending on voltage and time. From measurements of unitary current events in membrane patches (outside out or cell attached) the conductance of the single inward rectifying channel was estimated to be 27 ± 7 pS. This type of ion channel may be important for K-uptake by glial cells and hence for the K-homeostasis in the brain.
