Alterations in synaptic transmission are critical early events in neuromuscular disorders. However, reliable methodologies to analyze the functional organization of the neuromuscular synapses are still needed. This manuscript provides a detailed protocol to analyze the molecular assembly of the neuromuscular synapses through immune-electrophysiology in . This technique allows the quantification of the molecular behavior of the neuromuscular synapses by correlating the structural configuration of the synaptic boutons with their electrical activity.
突触传递的改变是神经肌肉疾病早期的关键事件。然而,仍需要可靠的方法来分析神经肌肉突触的功能组织。本手稿提供了一种详细的方案,用于通过免疫电生理学分析神经肌肉突触的分子组装。该技术通过将突触小体的结构配置与其电活动相关联,实现对神经肌肉突触分子行为的量化。
