Endothelin-1 enhances calcium entry through T-type calcium channels in cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes.
Endothelin-1 (ET-1), a 21-amino acid vasoconstrictive peptide, increases intracellular Ca2+ level and has hypertrophic action on ventricular myocytes. To elucidate a possible role of Ca2+ entry through sarcolemmal Ca2+ channels on this ET-1 action, we examined effects of ET-1 on L-type (ICa,L) and T-type (ICa,T) Ca2+ currents in cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes using the patch-clamp t...
متن کاملCo-culture of rat neonatal ventricular myocytes and GFP-labeled feline c-Kit cells: Neonatal rat ventricular myocytes
BrdU infusion into normal cats: Osmotic pumps (ALZET) were filled with 50mg/mL BrdU dissolved in 50% DMSO/50% ddH2O filtered through a sterile 0.22μm filter. Pumps were then incubated in sterile saline at 37 °C overnight prior to insertion. The pumps were surgically inserted subcutaneously just caudal to the scapulae per the protocol approved by IACUC at Temple University. The number of pumps w...
متن کاملProperties of L-type calcium channel gating current in isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes
Nonlinear capacitative current (charge movement) was compared to the Ca current (ICa) in single guinea pig ventricular myocytes. It was concluded that the charge movement seen with depolarizing test steps from -50 mV is dominated by L-type Ca channel gating current, because of the following observations. (a) Ca channel inactivation and the immobilization of the gating current had similar voltag...
متن کاملSubcellular electrolyte alterations during progressive hypoxia and following reoxygenation in isolated neonatal rat ventricular myocytes.
This study characterizes the sequential alterations of, and relations between, multiple electrolytes in cytoplasm, mitochondria, and whole cells during hypoxia and on reoxygenation in isolated neonatal rat ventricular myocytes. Subcellular electrolyte content and distribution were measured by electron probe x-ray microanalysis, membrane phospholipid degradation by tritiated arachidonic acid rel...
متن کاملPYK2 regulates SERCA2 gene expression in neonatal rat ventricular myocytes.
The nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (PYK2) has been implicated in cell signaling pathways involved in left ventricular hypertrophy and heart failure, but its exact role has not been elucidated. In this study, replication-defective adenoviruses (Adv) encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged, wild-type (WT), and mutant forms of PYK2 were used to det...
