摘要: 采用海马齿状回(dentate gyrus, DG)区域特异性过量表达βCaMKII的蛋白修饰转基因小鼠,通过离体电生理技术,研究了βCaMKII高表达对该区域突触可塑性的影响.与对照组相比,转基因小鼠海马齿状回双脉冲抑制反应(paired-pulse depression, PPD)和颗粒细胞的电压—电流曲线(voltage-current curve)没有发生变化,而该区域的长时程抑制(long-term depression, LTD)明显被减弱.实验结果提示,βCaMKII的过量表达不影响小鼠海马齿状回区的突触前递质释放能力和颗粒细胞的被动属性,但损害其长时程抑制.这为进一步研究βCaMKII在学习记忆和突触可塑性中的作用提供了电生理学依据.

Abstract: This experiment was designed to investigate the effects of the βCaMKII on the long-term depression (LTD) in dentate gyrus(DG)by using the transgenic mice in which the overexpression of βCaMKII is restricted to the DG area. Compared to the control group, the paired-pulse depression curve and voltage-current response in DG of transgenic mice didn’t change, but the LTD was significantly reduced. These results suggest that overexpression of the βCaMKII may impair the long-term depression without effect on the presynaptic function and passive properties of granule cells in DG area.

Key words: βCaMKII, dentate gyrus, long-term depression
