Research Abstract |
We assessed the electrophysiological properties of pulmonary vein myocardium and analyzed its arrhythmogenic activity. Some of the pulmonary vein cardiomyocytes, but not atrial cardiomyocytes, showed sustained spontaneous Ca2+transients. But morphology and the sarcoplasmic reticulum content of pulmonary vein cardiomyocytes were the same as those of atrial myocytes. The pulmonary vein myocardium had a less negative resting membrane potential and lower density of inwardly rectifying potassium current than atrial. These results suggest that the lower density of repolarizing currents in pulmonary vein cardiomyocytes appears to play a permissive role for depolarization induced by elevation of intracellular Ca2+.
