An in vitro mature spinal cord preparation from the rat.

Abstract:

:The preparation of an isolated hemisected spinal cord preparation, maintained in vitro, from mature (180-300 g body weight) rats is described. Sacral and coccygeal segments (S2-Co1) gave consistent ventral root reflexes (DR-VRP) from electrical stimulation of dorsal roots. The mean latency and amplitude of the fastest component in the ventral root reflex, at 25 degrees C, were 1.6 msec +/- 0.4 SE mean and 8.2 mV +/- 0.9 SE mean, respectively (28 preparations). This component was resistant to the NMDA antagonist, 2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoate (AP5) but was depressed markedly by kynurenate. A slow component of the ventral root reflex, which was sensitive to AP5 was enhanced and spontaneous AP5-sensitive synaptic potentials sensitive to AP5 appeared in the absence of magnesium ions. The excitant amino acids L-aspartate, L-glutamate, N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA), kainate and quisqualate produced dose-dependent depolarizing responses in the ventral roots. The relative depolarizing potencies +/- SE mean (N) of NMDA, kainate and quisqualate, relative to L-glutamate = 1, were 96 +/- 30 (6), 234 +/- 57 (6) and 145 +/- 40 (5), respectively. These properties, apart from reduced latency of synaptic responses, are similar to those described previously for preparations from immature animals. However, it will be easier with the mature preparation to selective activate high and low threshold primary afferents.
