Research Abstract |
It is a matter of debate whether the gap junction (GJ), a pathway for ions and small molecules between adjacent cells, exists between axon terminals in the adult brain. To approach the final goal demonstrating such GJs by patch clamping from adjacent axon terminals, the present study was designed as the first step. Three dimensional live images of a pair of adjacent GABAergic axon terminals, situated on a neuron side-by-side, were successfully obtained using a real time laser confocal microscopy. Some critical techniques were established in the present study towards the goal.
