| Research Abstract |
The arrythmias caused by Ca^<2+> overload have been suggested to be due to the triggered activities resulting from the spontaneous Ca^<2+> release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). The phenomenon that the discrete region of elevated [Ca^<2+>]i travels along a myocyte is called the Ca^<2+> wave and is frequently observed under Ca^<2+> overloaded state. In this study, it was shown that raising the Mg^<2+> concentration of solution inhibited the Ca^<2+> wave with minimal suppression of electrically induced Ca^<2+> transient. The effect of Mg^<2+> was contrasted with the effect of verapamil, which inhibited the Ca^<2+> wave with the suppression of electrically induced Ca^<2+> transient. High Mg^<2+> solution also suppressed the Ca^<2+> wave in rested myocyte. These results suggested that the suppression of Ca^<2+> wave by Mg^<2+> was not related to the voltage dependent Ca^<2+> channel blocking property. To examine whether the effect of Mg^<2+> is exserted intracellulally, the effect of raising the Mg^<2+> concentration of solution on the [Mg^<2+>]i was examined. It was shown that raising the Mg^<2+> concentration increased the [Mg^<2+>]i with smilar time course to the suppression of Ca^<2+> wave. Since an increase in [Mg^<2+>]i has been reported to activate the Ca^<2+>-ATPase of SR and to inhibit Ca^<2+> releasing channel of SR, the amount of releasable Ca^<2+> in SR was estimated using post-rest and caffeine-induced C2+ transient as an index. Both post-rest and caffeine-induced Ca^<2+> transient were increased by high Mg^<2+> solution. These results suggested that antiarrythmic effect of Mg^<2+> is not due to the inhibition of voltage dependent Ca^<2+> channel, but due to an increase in Ca^<2+> holding capacity of SR.Since Mg^<2+> suppressed Ca^<2+> wave with minimal inhibition of electrically induced Ca<
