Abstract

삼차신경절의 뉴론이 구강악안면영역에서의 촉각, 압각, 온도각 및 통각 등 다양한 감각을 중추신경계로 전달하는 역할을 하는 것은 주지의 사실이다. 이러한 신경전달에 있어서 이온통로는 감각정보를 전달하는데 핵심적인 역할을 수행한다. 이 중 소디움 통로는 활동전위의 발생에 중요하며, 칼슘 통로는 시냅스 전도에 있어서 필수적인 역할을 수행하고, 포타슘 통로는 안정막전압의 유지 및 재분극에 관여한다. 최근에 여러 가지의 이온통로들의 뇌조직내의 분포에 관한 연구가 시작되고 있는데 삼차신경의 일차구심뉴론이 종지하는 삼차신경핵 즉 삼차신경 척수감각핵, 삼차신경 주감각핵, 삼차신경 중뇌핵 및 삼차신경 운동핵에 존재하는 이온통로에 관한 연구는 매우 희소하여 본 연구에서는 횐쥐의 삼차신경 핵에 존재하는 소디움, 칼슘 및 포타슘 이온통로들을 면역조직화학적 방법으로 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. (1) 소디움 통로는 삼차신경 척수감각핵, 삼차신경 주감각핵 및 삼차신경 운동핵 모두에서 강하게 염색되었다. (2) 칼슘 통로는 삼차신경 척수감각핵에서는 N-type 통로가 중등도로 염색되었으며 , P/Q-type 통로는 약하게 염색되었으나 R-type 통로는 거의 염색되지 않았다. 삼차신경 주감각핵에서는 P/Q-type 통로가 매우 약하게 염색되었다. (3) 포타슘 통로는 삼차신경 척수감각핵과 삼차신경 주감각핵에서 inwardly rectifying 포타슘 통로(Kir 2.1)가 중등도로 염색되었고, voltage-gated 포타슘 통로(Kv 4.2)가 약하게 염색되었으며, BKCa는 그 염색 정도가 매우 약하게 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때 삼차신경 감각핵에는 소디움 통로의 분포가 가장 많았으며, 칼슘통로에서는 N-type이, 포타슘 통로 중에는 inwardly rectifying 통로(Kir 2.1)가 가장 많이 분포함을 관찰할 수 있었다.
