Determining a Test Growth Hormone Effect on Kisspeptin Neurons using a Whole-Cell Patch Clamp
Source: Silva, J. d. N., et al., Hypothalamic Kisspeptin Neurons as a Target for Whole-Cell Patch-Clamp Recordings. J. Vis. Exp. (2023) This video demonstrates the use of the whole-cell patch-clamp technique to measure responses in kisspeptin neurons from transfected mouse hypothalamic slices. The process involves achieving whole-cell configuration and recording membrane potential changes induced by the test hormone using current-clamp mode.
