腺苷减少豚鼠心室肌细胞内游离钙浓度

目的：研究腺苷对豚鼠心室肌细胞内游离钙浓度（[Ca^2＋]i）的影响并探讨其可能机制。方法：用激光共聚焦显微镜探测细胞内游离钙浓度,结果用相对荧光强度（（FI-FI0）／FI0,％;FI0：对照;FI：给药）表示。结果：①在正常台氏液和无钙台氏液中,腺苷（10,50,100μmol／L）浓度依赖性地降低[Ca^2＋];。②含30mmol／L KCl的台氏液（高钾台氏液）能够增加[Ca^2＋]i。腺苷（10,50,100μmol／L）能够显著抑制KCl引起的[Ca^2＋]i的增加。③预先应用选择性腺苷AI受体拮抗剂DPCPX（1μmol／L）,可大部分取消腺苷（100μmol／L）在高钾台氏液中的作用。腺苷（100μmol／L）在高钾台氏液的作用也可被预先应用一氧化氮（No）合酶抑制剂L-NAME（1mmol／L）所部分减弱。④腺苷（100μmol／L）能明显抑制无钙台氏液中由低浓度ryanodine引起的[Ca^2＋];增加。⑤当细胞外液钙浓度由1mmol／L增加到10mmol／L而诱发心室肌细胞钙超载时,部分心室肌细胞产生可传播的钙波,腺苷（100μmol／L）可降低钙波发生的频率和持续时间,最终阻断钙波并降低[Ca^2＋];。结论：腺苷可通过抑制外钙内流和减少肌浆网内钙释放从而降低[Ca^2＋],其减少外钙内流可能是由于腺苷A1受体介导的电压依赖性Ca^2＋通道的抑制,NO可能参与这一过程。     

Atrial natriuretic peptide reduces the basal level of cytosolic free Ca2+ in guinea pig cardiac myocytes

The cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) was monitored in quiescent atrial and ventricular myocytes isolated from guinea-pig hearts by the fura-2 fluorescence ratio technique. Recombinant human atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) was found to reduce their basal [Ca2+]i level in a dose-dependent manner. Dibutyryl-cGMP mimicked the effect of ANP. Neither the prior application of caffeine nor removal of extracellular Na+ impaired the ANP effect. ANP had no inhibitory effect on voltage-gated Ca2+ currents measured by a whole-cell patch clamp technique. The ANP-induced [Ca2+]i decrease was abolished by orthovanadate. Thus, it is concluded that ANP reduces the basal [Ca2+]i presumably through the cGMP-mediated activation of the plasma membrane Ca2(+)-pump in cardiac myocytes.     

白藜芦醇降低大鼠心室肌细胞内游离钙浓度

实验旨在研究白藜芦醇(resveratrol)对大鼠心室肌细胞内钙浓度(intracellular calcium concentratoin,[Ca2+]i)的影响.应用激光共聚焦显微镜技术记录心室肌细胞内的钙荧光强度.结果表明在正常台氏液和无钙台氏液中,白藜芦醇(15～60μmol/L)呈浓度依赖性地降低[Ca2+]i.蛋白酪氨酸磷酸酶抑制剂正钒酸钠(sodium orthovanadate,1.0 mmol/L)和L型Ca2+通道激动剂Bay K8644(10 μmol/L)可部分抑制正常台氏液中白藜芦醇的效应.但NO合酶阻断剂L-NAME(1.0 mmol/L)对白藜芦醇的作用无影响.白藜芦醇也能明显抑制无钙台氏液中由低浓度ryanodine(1.0 nmol/L)引起的[Ca2+]i增加.当细胞外液钙浓度由1 mmol/L增加到10 mmol/L而诱发心室肌细胞钙超载时,部分心室肌细胞产生可传播的钙波,白藜芦醇(60 μmol/L)可降低钙波的传播速度和持续时间,最终阻断钙波.结果提示,白藜芦醇能够降低心室肌细胞内游离钙浓度,此作用可能与其抑制电压依赖性Ca2+通道、酩氨酸激酶和肌浆网内钙释放有关.     

Properties of L-type calcium channel gating current in isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes.

Nonlinear capacitative current (charge movement) was compared to the Ca current (ICa) in single guinea pig ventricular myocytes. It was concluded that the charge movement seen with depolarizing test steps from -50 mV is dominated by L-type Ca channel gating current, because of the following observations. (a) Ca channel inactivation and the immobilization of the gating current had similar voltage and time dependencies. The degree of channel inactivation was directly proportional to the amount of charge immobilization, unlike what has been reported for Na channels. (b) The degree of Ca channel activation was closely correlated with the amount of charge moved at all test potentials between -40 and +60 mV. (c) D600 was found to reduce the gating current in a voltage- and use-dependent manner. D600 was also found to induce "extra" charge movement at negative potentials. (d) Nitrendipine reduced the gating current in a voltage-dependent manner (KD = 200 nM at -40 mV). However, nitrendipine did not increase charge movement at negative test potentials. Although contamination of the Ca channel gating current from other sources cannot be fully excluded, it was not evident in the data and would appear to be small. However, it was noted that the amount of Ca channel gating charge was quite large compared with the magnitude of the Ca current. Indeed, the gating current was found to be a significant contaminant (19 +/- 7%) of the Ca tail currents in these cells. In addition, it was found that Ca channel rundown did not diminish the gating current. These results suggest that Ca channels can be "inactivated" by means that do not affect the voltage sensor.     

三羟异黄酮对豚鼠心室肌细胞L-型钙通道电流的影响

本实验用全细胞膜片钳技术观察三羟异黄酮(genistein,GST)对豚鼠心室肌细胞L-钙通道电流(ICa、L)的影响。结果如下:(1)GST(10、50、100 μmol/L)可浓度依赖性地降低ICa,L(n=6,P<0.01)。GST的非活性结构类似物daidzein(100μmol/L),在同一浓度范围对ICa,L没有影响(n=5,P>0.05)。(2)GST使I-V曲线上移,但对ICa,L的电压依赖特征和最大激活电压无明显影响。(3)GST对ICa,L的激活动力学特性也无影响,但可使钙电流稳态失活曲线左移。V0.5从对照的-28.6±0.6 mV变为-32.8±1.1mV,κ值从对照的5.8±0.5 mV升至6.5±0.9 mV(n=6,P<0.05)。(4)GST明显使复活曲线右移,从而使ICa,L从失活状态下恢复明显减慢(n=7,P<0.01)。(5)酪氨酸磷酸酶抑制剂正钒酸钠(1 mmol/L)显著对抗GST引起的ICa,L抑制效应(n=6,P<0.01)。根据以上结果得出的结论是:GST抑制ICa,L加速钙通道失活和钙通道在失活状态下恢复减慢;GST对ICa,L的这种抑制作用与蛋白酪氨酸激酶(PTK)抑制有关。     

Use-dependent block of single sodium channels by lidocaine in guinea pig ventricular myocytes.

Single sodium channel openings have been recorded from cell-attached patches of isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes. A paired pulse protocol was used to test the hypothesis that channel openings are required for lidocaine block. While the averaged ensemble current during the test pulse was much reduced, there was no correlation between the appearance of channel openings during the conditioning pulse and the subsequent test pulse. Analysis of single channel records demonstrated that the unit conductance of open channels was not changed by lidocaine. The block of ensemble INa was explained by roughly equal reductions in number of open channel events, and in the average duration of opening for each event. These results suggest that lidocaine binding to Na+ channels is dependent upon voltage, but may occur before channel opening. A lidocaine-modified channel can still open, but will be less likely to remain open than a drug-free channel. These results are consistent with block of a pre-open state of the channel.     

Increased intracellular calcium concentration causes electrical turbulence in guinea pig ventricular myocytes

Dysregulation of intracellular Ca²⁺ homeostasis is associated with various pathological conditions and arrhythmogenesis of the heart. The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of an acute increase in intracellular Ca²⁺ concentration ([Ca²⁺]_i) on the electrophysiology of ventricular myocytes by mimicking intracellular Ca²⁺ overload. The [Ca²⁺]_i was clamped to either a controlled (65–100 nmol L⁻¹) or increased (1 μmol L⁻¹) level. The transmembrane action potentials and ionic currents were recorded using whole-cell patch clamp techniques. We found that the acute increase in [Ca²⁺]_i shortened the action potential duration, reduced the action potential amplitude, maximum depolarization velocity and resting membrane potential, caused delayed after-depolarizations (DADs), and triggered activity—compared with these parameters in the control. The increased [Ca²⁺]_i augmented late I _Na in a time-dependent manner, reduced I _CaL and I _K1, and increased I _Kr but not I _Ks. The results of this study can be used to explain calcium overload-induced ventricular arrhythmias.     

小剂量辣椒素对豚鼠心室肌细胞L-型钙电流的影响

应用全细胞膜片钳技术研究低浓度辣椒素(capsaicin,CAP)对单个豚鼠心室肌细胞L-型钙电流的影响及其作用机制.CAP(1～25 nmol/L)可浓度依赖性增加电压依赖性的ICa-L的峰值并下移I-V曲线.CAPl,10,25 nmol/L使ICa-L最大峰值分别由-9.67±0.7pA/pF增至-10.21±0.8pA/pF(P＞0.05),-11.37±0.8pA/pF和-12.84±0.9pA/pF(P＜0.05).CAP25nmol/L可明显使稳态激活曲线左移,激活中点电压(V0.5)由-20.76±2.0mV变至-26.71±3.0mV(P＜0.05),表明低浓度CAP改变了钙通道激活的电压依赖性.CAP25nmol/L对电压依赖性稳态失活曲线和ICa-L从失活状态下复活过程无明显影响.辣椒素受体(VR1)阻断剂钌红(RR,10μmol/L)可阻断低浓度辣椒素的效应.以上结果表明,低浓度辣椒素使钙通道稳态激活曲线左移,增加ICa-L,这一效应可能由VRl介导.

Effects of nanomolar concentration dihydroouabain on calcium current and intracellular calcium in guinea pig ventricular myocytes

The effects of nanomolar concentration of dihydroouabain (DHO) on L-type calcium current (ICa-L), TTX-sensitive calcium current (ICa(TTX)), and intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) were investigated in guinea pig ventricular myocytes. The whole-cell patch-clamp technique was used to record ICa-L and ICa(TTX); [Ca2+]i was detected and recorded with the confocal microscopy. The nanomolar concentration of DHO increased the ICa-L, ICa(TTX), and [Ca2+]i, which could be partially inhibited by nisoldipine or TTX, but still appeared in the absence of extracellular K+ and Na+. These data suggest that DHO could increase [Ca2+]i in non-beating myocytes via stimulating the ICa-L and ICa(TTX), or perhaps triggering directly a release of intracellular calcium.     

低浓度双氢哇巴因对豚鼠心室肌细胞内游离钙浓度的影响

用激光共聚焦显微镜检查研究低浓度双氢哇巴因（DHO）对豚鼠心室肌细胞内钙浓度（[Ca^2 ]i)的影响。DHO 1fmol/L-1 mmol/L可增加心室肌细胞的[Ca^2 ]i,尤其以10pmol/L DHO为显著,Nisoldipine,EGTA或TTX可分别部分抑制10pmol/L DHO的作用,去除胞外K^ 和Na^ 后,上述作用仍存在,以上结果表明,低浓度DHO中通过激活钙通道和TTX敏感的钠通道,或许还可直接促进胞内钙释放来增加[Ca^2 ]i,并有不依赖Na^ /K^ 泵而升高[Ca^2 ]i的作用。     

Visualization of cytosolic free calcium distribution and mobilization in guinea pig gastric chief cells

Distribution and temporal change of free calcium concentration [( Ca2+]i) in single guinea pig gastric chief cells were visualized by a digital imaging microscope equipped with a microspectrofluorometer. The distribution was not homogeneous; a higher [Ca2+]i area was often localized in some restricted regions of the endoplasm and also at the peripheral cytoplasm just beneath the plasma membrane. When stimulated with cholecystokinin, [Ca2+]i increased transiently in the apical peripheral cytoplasm and in the endoplasmic regions. This Ca2+ mobilization which precedes the biphasic pepsinogen secretion was composed of a rapid Ca2+ release from the intracellular store(s) as well as a rapid and a more sustained Ca2+ entry from the extracellular space.     

Effects of external protons on single cardiac sodium channels from guinea pig ventricular myocytes.

The effects of external protons on single sodium channel currents recorded from cell-attached patches on guinea pig ventricular myocytes were investigated. Extracellular protons reduce single channel current amplitude in a dose-dependent manner, consistent with a simple rapid channel block model where protons bind to a site within the channel with an apparent pKH of 5.10. The reduction in single channel current amplitude by protons is voltage independent between -70 and -20 mV. Increasing external proton concentration also shifts channel gating parameters to more positive voltages, consistent with previous macroscopic results. Similar voltage shifts are seen in the steady-state inactivation (h infinity) curve, the time constant for macroscopic current inactivation (tau h), and the first latency function describing channel activation. As pHo decreases from 7.4 to 5.5 the midpoint of the h infinity curve shifts from -107.6 +/- 2.6 mV (mean +/- SD, n = 16) to -94.3 +/- 1.9 mV (n = 3, P less than 0.001). These effects on channel gating are consistent with a reduction in negative surface potential due to titration of negative external surface charge. The Gouy-Chapman-Stern surface charge model incorporating specific proton binding provides an excellent fit to the dose-response curve for the shift in the midpoint of the h infinity curve with protons, yielding an estimate for total negative surface charge density of -1e/490 A2 and a pKH for proton binding of 5.16. By reducing external surface Na+ concentration, titration of negative surface charge can also quantitatively account for the reduction in single Na+ channel current amplitude, although we cannot rule out a potential role for channel block. Thus, titration by protons of a single class of negatively charged sites may account for effects on both single channel current amplitude and gating.     

Effects of platelet-activating factor on single potassium channel currents in guinea pig ventricular myocytes

Platelet-activating factor (PAF) has been implicated as one of the mediators of cardiac anaphylaxis. This phospholipid has been shown to have numerous effects on a variety of tissues, including the heart. Among these effects are alterations in the resting potential and generation of arrhythmias at very low concentrations. This suggests that PAF may modulate the activity of the background, inwardly-rectifying potassium current (I_K1). Thus, the effects of PAF on I_K1 were examined at the single channel level. Ventricular cells were isolated from adult guinea pig hearts and single channel currents recorded from cell-attached patches. PAF had substantial effects on the single channel currents at sub-nanomolar concentrations (10^–11 to 10^–10 M). PAF initially caused flickering of the channels, followed by a gradual prolonged depression of channel activity. Since these potassium channels play a major role in determining the resting potential and excitability of the cardiac cell, the effects of PAF on I_K1 may play a major role in the deleterious electrophysiological actions of PAF on the heart.Abbreviations I_K1 Inwardly-rectifying background potassium current - Lyso-PAF Lyso-platelet-activating factor - PAF Platelet-activating factor

Intrinsic cytosolic calcium buffering properties of single rat cardiac myocytes.

Intracellular passive Ca2+, buffering was measured in voltage-clamped rat ventricular myocytes. Cells were loaded with indo-1 (K+ salt) to an estimated cytosolic concentration of 44 +/- 5 microM (Mean +/- SEM, n = 5), and accessible cell volume was estimated to be 24.5 +/- 3.6 pl. Ca2+ transport by the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca-ATPase and sarcolemmal Na-Ca exchange was inhibited by treatment with thapsigargin and Na-free solutions, respectively. Extracellular [Ca2+] was maintained at 10 mM and, in some experiments, the mitochondrial uncoupler "1799" was used to assess the degree of mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake. To perform single cell titrations, intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) was increased progressively by a train of depolarizing voltage clamp pulses from -40 to +10 mV. The total Ca2+ gain with each pulse was calculated by integration of the Ca current and then analyzed as a function of the rapid change in [Ca2+]i during the pulse. In the range of [Ca2+]i from 0.1 to 2 microM, overall cell buffering was well described as a single lumped Michaelis-Menten type species with an apparent dissociation constant, KD, of of 0.63 +/- 0.07 microM (n = 5) and a binding capacity, Bmax, of 162 +/- 15 mumol/l cell H2O. Correction for buffering attributable to cytosolic indo-1 gives intrinsic cytosolic Ca2+ buffering parameters of KD = 0.96 +/- 0.18 microM and Bmax = 123 +/- 18 mumol/l cell H2O. The fast Ca2+ buffering measured in this manner agrees reasonably with the characteristics of known rapid Ca buffers (e.g., troponin C, calmodulin, and SR Ca-ATPase), but is only about half of the total Ca2+ buffering measured at equilibrium. Inclusion of slow Ca buffers such as the Ca/Mg sites on troponin C and myosin can account for the differences between fast Ca2+ buffering in phase with the Ca current measured in the present experiments and equilibrium Ca2+ buffering. The present data indicate that a rapid rise of [Ca2+]i from 0.1 to 1 microM during a contraction requires approximately 50 microM Ca2+ to be added to the cytosol.     

Analytical modeling of the hysteresis phenomenon in guinea pig ventricular myocytes

In the present study, we have demonstrated hysteresis phenomena in the excitability of single, enzymatically dissociated guinea pig ventricular myocytes. Membrane potentials were recorded with patch pipettes in the whole-cell current clamp configuration. Repetitive stimulation with depolarizing current pulses of constant cycle length and duration but varying strength led to predictable excitation (1:l) and non-excitation (1:0) patterns depending on current strength. In addition, transition between patterns depended on the direction of current intensity change and stable hysteresis loops were obtained in stimulus:response pattern vs. current intensity plots in 14 cells. Increase of pulse duration and decrease of stimulation rate contributed to a reduction in hysteresis loop areas. Changes in amplitude and shape of the subthreshold responses during the transitions from one stable pattern to the other, suggested that activity led to an increase in membrane resistance, particularly in the voltage domain between resting potential, and threshold. Therefore, we modelled the dynamic behaviour of the single cells as a function of diastolic membrane resistance, using previously published analytical solutions. Numerical iteration of the analytical model equations closely reproduced the experimental hysteresis loops in both qualitative and quantitative ways. In particular, the effect of stimulation frequency on the model was similar to the experimental findings. The overall study suggests that the excitability pattern of guinea pig ventricular myocytes accounts for hysteresis and bistabilities when current intensity is allowed to fluctuate around threshold levels.

Role of free cytosolic calcium in secretagogue-stimulated amylase release from dispersed acini from guinea pig pancreas

To determine the role of free cytosolic calcium ([Ca+2]i) in stimulated enzyme secretion from exocrine pancreas, we determined the effects of various pancreatic secretagogues on [Ca+2]i and amylase release in dispersed acini from the guinea pig pancreas. Cholecystokinin-octapeptide (CCK-OP), carbachol, and bombesin, but not vasoactive intestinal peptide, stimulated rapid increases in [Ca+2]i from 100 to 600-800 nM that were independent of extracellular calcium. The increases in [Ca+2]i were transient (lasting less than 5 min) and correlated with an initial rapid phase of amylase release. After 5 min, secretagogue-stimulated amylase release occurred at basal [Ca+2]i. Carbachol pretreatment of the acini abolished the effects of CCK-OP and bombesin on [Ca+2]i and the initial rapid phase of amylase release. 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) had no effect on [Ca+2]i but stimulated an increase in amylase release. The addition of CCK-OP or A23187 to PMA-stimulated acini caused an increase in [Ca+2]i and PMA-stimulated amylase release only during the first 5 min after addition of these agents. These results indicate that CCK-OP, carbachol, and bombesin release calcium from an intracellular pool, resulting in a transient increase in [Ca+2]i and that this increase in [Ca+2]i mediates enzyme secretion during the first few minutes of incubation. The results with PMA suggest that secretagogue-stimulated secretion not mediated by increased [Ca+2]i (sustained secretion) is mediated by 1,2-diacylglycerol.
