Research Abstract |
(1) All isoform of Na/Ca exchanger member (Slc8A1, A2, A3) was seen in pulmonary artery and ductus arterisus. High expression levels were observed in A1 and A3, whereas A2 expression level was low. (2) In developmental changes, Slc8A1 tends to decrease slightly in ductus arteriosus and pulmonary artery, compare with significant change is observed in ventricular muscle. On the other hand, Slc8A3 tends to increase with development. In immunostaining analyses showed strong stain in A3 followed in A1 in ductus arteriosus and pulmonary artery. Slc8A2 showed negative immunostaining. (4) Transfection of Slc8A1 into HEK293 cell was performed. (5) Measurement of the Na/Ca exchanger current of Slc8A1 was performed by patch clamp method. However, measurements of the currents under various conditions such as hypoxia were not completed. Research will be continued.
