Properties of mechanoelectrical transduction were studied at the single-cell level by applying a whole-cell recording variation of the patch-clamp technique to dissociated vestibular hair cells of chicks. The hair bundle was directly stimulated by a glass rod, and transduction currents were recorded from the cell body. After a triangular movement of the stimulating probe, the transduction current was generated stepwise between discrete levels of amplitude. The minimum step amplitude was -1.8 pA at -27 mV in Na-containing normal saline.
通过将膜片钳技术的全细胞记录变体应用于雏鸡分离的前庭毛细胞,在单细胞水平上研究了机械电转导的特性。用玻璃棒直接刺激毛束,并从细胞体记录转导电流。在刺激探针进行三角运动后,转导电流在离散的幅度水平之间逐步产生。在含钠的生理盐水中,-27 mV时的最小步幅为-1.8 pA。
