Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The P/Q-type channels are composed principally of heterologous multimeric subunits including CaV2.1 and CaVβ4. ECG analysis showed that the T wave was high in 8-week-old lh mutants (CaVβ4-null mice). Upon pharmacological ECG analysis, lh mutants exhibited reduced responses to a β-blocker and a muscarinic receptor antagonist. Analysis of heart rate variability revealed that the R-R interval was unstable in lh mutants and that both the low- and high-frequency components had increased in extent, indicating that the tonus of both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems was modified. We also analyzed calcium channel modifying factors, such as histamine receptor and Orexin, which is neural peptide. With Histamine receptor type 1-null mice, we found signify involvement of H1 receptor in the sympathetic nerve regulation. We also found involvement of Orexin system in the sympathetic nerve control.
