Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Intracellular Ca2+-dependent electrical activity was observed in the isolated pulmonary-vein myocardium from small experimental animals, guinea-pig, rat and mouse. The activity was constant in the guinea-pig while intermittent in the rat and mouse. Intracellular Ca2+ released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum through the ryanodine receptor or the IP3 receptor causes a depolarization when pumped out of the cell by the sodium-calcium exchanger, which triggers the firing of the action potential. The electrical activity was induced by alpha- or beta-adrenergic receptor stimulation, and was inhibited by muscarinic receptor stimulation. Thus, it appears possible to control the pulmonary-vein automaticity through pharmacologica modification of intracellular Ca2+ dynamics and autonomic nerve influence.
