Effect of acidosis on transient outward potassium current in isolated rat ventricular myocytes.
The effect of acidosis on the transient outward K(+) current (I(to)) of rat ventricular myocytes has been investigated using the perforated patch-clamp technique. When the holding potential was -80 mV, depolarizing pulses to potentials positive to -20 mV activated I(to) in subepicardial cells but activated little I(to) in subendocardial cells. Exposure to an acid solution (pH 6.5) had no signif...
متن کاملNeuropeptide Y increases 4-aminopyridine-sensitive transient outward potassium current in rat ventricular myocytes.
1. The modulation of 4-aminopyridine sensitive transient outward potassium current (4-AP I(to)) by neuropeptide Y (NPY) (100 nM) in rat ventricular myocytes was examined using the whole cell voltage-clamp technique. 2. Continuous exposure to NPY (100 nM) for 3 - 6 h significantly increased 4-AP I(to) density. The stimulation of 4-AP I(to) density by NPY was concentration-dependent (EC(50)=10 nM...
متن کاملDepressed transient outward potassium current density in catecholamine-depleted rat ventricular myocytes.
The effect of catecholamine depletion (induced by prior treatment with reserpine) was studied in Wistar rat ventricular myocytes using whole cell voltage-clamp methods. Two calcium-independent outward currents, the transient outward potassium current (I(to)) and the sustained outward potassium current (I(sus)), were measured. Reserpine treatment decreased tissue norepinephrine content by 97%. A...
متن کاملTransient outward potassium current in ICC.
Interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) are the pacemakers of the gut, initiating slow-wave activity. Several ion channels have been identified that contribute to the depolarization phase of the slow wave. Our aim was to contribute to knowledge about the identity and role of ICC potassium channels in pacemaking. Here we describe a transient outward potassium current in cell-attached patches of ICC. T...
متن کاملEarly outward current in rat single ventricular cells.
Voltage clamp experiments were conducted using single ventricular myocytes which had been dissociated enzymatically from adult rat hearts in order to examine further the membrane currents which contribute to the unusual plateau of the rat action potential. Membrane currents were recorded, using a single microelectrode (switching) voltage clamp circuit. From holding potentials near the resting p...
