Potassium Sensitive Optical Nanosensors Containing Voltage Sensitive Dyes.
lonophore-based ion-selective optical nanosensors have been explored for a number of years. Voltage sensitive dyes (VSDs) have been introduced into this type of sensors only very recently, forming a new class of analytical tools. Here, K(+)-sensitive nanospheres incorporating a lipophilic VSD were successfully fabricated and characterized. The nanosensors were readily delivered into the social ...
متن کاملUse of Voltage - Sensitive Dyes and Optical
-Understanding the spatio-temporal features of the information processing occurring in any complex neural structure requires the monitoring and analysis of the activity in populations of neurons. Electrophysiological and other mapping techniques have provided important insights into the function of neural circuits and neural populations in many systems. However, there remain limitations with th...
متن کاملOptical signals from neurons with internally applied voltage-sensitive dyes.
We carried out experiments to monitor optically the generation and spread of action potentials and subthreshold potentials in the processes of individual neurons in ganglia of the snail, Helix aspersa. The neurons were selectively stained by intracellular pressure injection of voltage-sensitive dyes. Optical signals were detected by a system for fast, multiple-site optical monitoring, utilizing...
متن کاملPalette of fluorinated voltage-sensitive hemicyanine dyes.
Optical recording of membrane potential permits spatially resolved measurement of electrical activity in subcellular regions of single cells, which would be inaccessible to electrodes, and imaging of spatiotemporal patterns of action potential propagation in excitable tissues, such as the brain or heart. However, the available voltage-sensitive dyes (VSDs) are not always spectrally compatible w...
متن کاملVoltage-sensitive potassium channels in Drosophila photoreceptors.
A preparation of dissociated Drosophila ommatidia is described that allows single-channel and whole-cell patch-clamp analysis of currents in identified sensory neurons. Three distinct classes of voltage-sensitive potassium conductances are characterized; all were detected in distal parts of ommatidia from sevenless mutants and hence in one cell class (R1-6 photoreceptors). Rapidly inactivating ...
