Electrophysiological effects of resveratrol on guinea pig papillary muscles.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the electrophysiological effects of resveratrol on guinea pig papillary muscles and the underlying mechanism. Action potentials were recorded by using intracellular microelectrode technique. The results obtained are as follows: (1) In normal papillary muscles, resveratrol (30, 60, and 120 micromol/L) shortened the duration of action potential (APD) i...
متن کاملEffects of lysophosphatidylcholine on electrophysiological properties and excitation-contraction coupling in isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes.
Lysophosphoglyceride accumulation in ischemic myocardium has been implicated as a cause of arrhythmias. We examined the effects of lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) in isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes. In paced myocytes loaded with the Ca2+ indicator Indo-1-AM and studied at room temperature, 20 microM LPC caused an initial positive inotropic effect followed by spontaneous automaticity, a d...
متن کاملElectrophysiological effects of CI-980, a tubulin binding agent, on guinea-pig papillary muscles.
1. The electrophysiological effects of CI-980, a new tubulin-binding agent that inhibits assembly of cytoplasmic microtubules, on transmembrane action potential characteristics were studied in right ventricular papillary muscles from guinea-pig hearts. 2. In papillary muscles driven at 1 Hz, CI-980 at concentrations > or = 10(-5) M produced a concentration-dependent increase in the maximum upst...
متن کاملEffects of external protons on single cardiac sodium channels from guinea pig ventricular myocytes
The effects of external protons on single sodium channel currents recorded from cell-attached patches on guinea pig ventricular myocytes were investigated. Extracellular protons reduce single channel current amplitude in a dose-dependent manner, consistent with a simple rapid channel block model where protons bind to a site within the channel with an apparent pKH of 5.10. The reduction in singl...
متن کاملEffects of neuropeptide Y on cell length and membrane currents in isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes.
Direct effects of neuropeptide Y were studied in left ventricular myocytes isolated from guinea pigs. Contraction was measured as the change in unloaded cell length using a photodiode array. Action potentials were elicited at 1 Hz in current-clamp mode, and membrane currents were measured using a switch-clamp amplifier with 2 M-KCl microelectrodes. At concentrations of 10(-6) M and above, neuro...
