BACKGROUND: The main difficulties of whole-cell patch clamP are cell culture and whole-call current recording. OBJECTIVE: To reduce the difficulty of patch-clamp experiment by combining acute cell isolation with current separation technique. METHODS: A total of 40 wistar rats aged 4-7 days, irrespective of genders, were selected. The pallium of wistar rats were cut into slices with 400-600 μm, rested for 1 hour in artificial cerebrospinal fluid with gas mixture, simultaneously put in oxygen. The brain tissues were placed into artificial cerebrospinal fluid containing 16 u/mL(type X) and 2 u/mL(type XIV) proteinase, incubated for 60 minutes, and cleared the digestive enzyme. Under the whole-cell voltage clamp mode, the potential was hold at -80mV, depolarizing pulse stimulation from -60 mV to 60 mV, 10 mV step and 160 ms width. The total Tran membranes current was recorded, and then 70 mmol/LCsCI, 70mmol/L CsF was 11 μmol/L Na~+ channel blockers tetrodotoxin, 30 mmol/L tetraethylammonium, 1 mmol/L 4-AP was successively added into extracellular fluid. The inward sodium current, transient outward potassium current and delayed rectifier potassium current was recorded, and then the result was analyzed using clampfit. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:①Cell morphological observation; ②Whole-ceil current recording;③Inward sodium currentrecording; ④Outward potassium current recording.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The cell had clearly three-dimensional structure, smooth surface and whole neurodendrite or neuraxon. The cell viability could maintained for 8-10 hours at 25 ℃ temperature. The added 11 tetrodotoxin in extracellular fluid could block sodium Current. The outward potassium current could be blocked by tetraethylammonium with 30 mmol/L and 4-AP with 1 mmol/L. The calls harvested by modified rapid dissociation have good functions. Using current separation method, only specific blockers are needed, without extracellular fluid or electrode solution replacing, which can record the inward sodium current, transient outward potassium current, as well as delayed rectifier potassium current. This method can obviously improve the work efficiency than traditional one.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the application of the Dexmedetomidine utend drug induced sleep endoscopy.
METHOD:
Forty-four OSAHS patients diagnosed by PSG randomly were divided into group A (Dexmedetomidine group) and group B (Propofol group), each group of 22 cases. Group A: pump the Dexmedetomidine (1 microg/kg) over 15 minutes. Once the patient reached a satisfactory level of sedation, the electronic nasopharyngoscope was introduced into the nasal cavity group B: the propofol (2 mg/kg) was intravenous injected, use the same exmination after the object patients falling asleep. If not, double the injection dose of the two group. Observe and record the patient vital signs, EEG and sleep time, and handle the complications.
RESULT:
The study was successfully completed both in group A and B. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) in group B was lower than group A during the examination significantly (P < 0.05). The time falling to sleep in two groups were (13.4 +/- 2.5) min and (6.6 +/- 1.2) min, and the time in group A was much longer than that in group B. The lowest oxygen saturation during the examination in two groups were 0.835 +/- 0.096 and 0.691 +/- 0.095, and the difference was statistically significant. There was no incidence of adverse reactions in two groups.
CONCLUSION
Compared with propofol, Dexmedetomidine is a safer sleep-inducing drug, and it can be used for clinical sleep endoscopy.
