肾上腺髓质素对豚鼠心室肌细胞L-型钙通道的调制

应用全细胞膜片钳技术研究了肾上腺髓质素 (ADM )对豚鼠心室肌细胞L 型钙电流 (ICa ,L)的影响及其信号传导机制。结果发现 :ADM ( 1～ 10 0nmol/L)浓度依赖性抑制ICa,L(P <0 0 5 ) ,并可被ADM特异受体阻断剂ADM2 2 52 ( 10 0nmol/L)完全阻断。用蛋白激酶A特异拮抗剂H 89( 10 μmol/L)预处理 ,对ADM抑制ICa ,L的作用无影响。但用蛋白激酶C (PKC)特异性拮抗剂PKC19 36 预处理 ,可完全阻断ADM的抑制效应 ;而PKC特异性激动剂PMA则可以模仿ADM的抑制效应 (P <0 0 5 )。上述结果提示 :ADM作用于特异性ADM受体可浓度依赖性地抑制豚鼠心室肌细胞ICa ,L,而此作用可能是PKC介导的。

Inhibitory effect of adrenomedullin on L-type calcium currents in guinea-pig ventricular myocytes

The effects of adrenomedullin (ADM) on the L-type calcium currents (I(Ca,L() and the mechanism of the signal transduction process were studied. Enzymatically isolated guinea-pig ventricular myocytes were used to measure ICa,L with whole-cell patch-clamp techniques. ADM at the concentrations of 1-100 nmol/L decreased ICa,L in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). ADM22-52) (100 nmol/L), a specific ADM-receptor antagonist, completely abolished the ADM-induced inhibition of ICa,L. Pretreatment of the cells with H-89 (10 micromol/L), a specific PKA inhibitor, did not attenuate the effects of ADM. Intracellular application of 10 micromol/L PKC19-36), a specific PKC inhibitor, prevented the ADM-induced inhibition of the ICa,L, while the specific PKC activator PMA could mimic the effects of ADM on the ICa,L. PMA (1 micromol/L) decreased the ICa,L by 32.26+/-4.20%(P<0.05). These findings indicate that ADM can inhibit the ICa,L in guinea-pig ventricular myocytes, and the inhibition is mediated by the specific ADM-receptor and an activation of protein kinase C.
