| Research Abstract |
To develop a new diagnostic method for malignant hyperthermia, utility of necrotic cytotoxicity assay provoked by agonists for ryanodine-1 receptors(RyR1) in monocytes was evaluated. Two RyR1 agonists, bupivacaine as well as caffeine, elevated intracellular Ca^<2+> concentration. However, bupivacaine but not caffeine provoked cell death. Differential effects of these RyR1 agonists on mitochondrial membrane potential mimicked those on necrotic cell death. These indicated that intracellular Ca^<2+> mobilization was not the direct cause of cell death provoked by RyR1 agonists. Further evaluation concerning the relationship between mitochondrial damage and necrosis provoked by RyR1 agonists should be required.
