[Abstract]  Cost-effective and efficient, the fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) has been used to make many key discoveries in the field of neuroscience and to model a number of neurological disorders. Great strides in understanding have been made using sophisticated molecular genetic tools and behavioral assays. Functional analysis of neural activity was initially limited to the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) and in the central nervous system (CNS) of embryos and larvae. Elucidating the cellular mechanisms underlying neurological processes and disorders in the mature nervous system have been more challenging due to difficulty in recording from neurons in adult brains. To this aim we developed an ex vivo preparation in which a whole brain is isolated from the head capsule of an adult ... [摘要]  果蝇( Drosophila melanogaster )具有成本效益和效率,已被用于在神经科学领域进行许多重要发现并模拟许多神经疾病。使用复杂的分子遗传工具和行为测定已经在理解方面取得了很大进展。神经活动的功能分析最初仅限于神经肌肉接头(NMJ)和胚胎和幼虫的中枢神经系统(CNS)。阐明成熟神经系统中神经过程和病症潜在的细胞机制由于难以从成人大脑中的神经元记录而更具挑战性。为此目的,我们开发了一种离体制剂,其中从成年蝇的头部胶囊中分离出全脑并将其置于记录室中。通过这种制备,可以将成年大脑中鉴定的神经元的全细胞记录与遗传,药理学和环境操作相结合,以探索神经元功能和功能障碍的细胞机制。它还作为评估通过用于治疗神经疾病的行为测定法鉴定的新疗法的作用机制的重要平台。在这里,我们提出了成人 Drosophila 脑中离体制剂和全细胞记录的方案。

【背景】果蝇( Drosophila melanogaster )已被用于在神经科学的各个基本领域(包括学习和记忆)中取得重要发现(Bolduc et al。,2008; Cervantes- Sandoval et al。,2016),突触形成和调节(Genç et al。,2017)和昼夜节律(Allada et al。 ,1998; Guo et ...
