Mechanisms and Determinants of Ultralong Action Potential Duration and Slow Rate-Dependence in Cardiac Myocytes
In normal cardiac myocytes, the action potential duration (APD) is several hundred milliseconds. However, experimental studies showed that under certain conditions, APD could be excessively long (or ultralong), up to several seconds. Unlike the normal APD, the ultralong APD increases sensitively with pacing cycle length even when the pacing rate is very slow, exhibiting a sensitive slow rate-de...
متن کاملChloride current in mammalian cardiac myocytes. Novel mechanism for autonomic regulation of action potential duration and resting membrane potential
The properties of the autonomically regulated chloride current (ICl) were studied in isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes. This current was elicited upon exposure to isoproterenol (ISO) and reversed upon concurrent exposure to acetylcholine (ACh). ICl was time independent and exhibited outward rectification. The responses to ISO and ACh could be blocked by propranolol and atropine, respecti...
متن کاملDepolarization and Action Potential Duration in Cardiac Purkinje Fibers
The effect of depolarization on the duration of the action potential was studied in short cardiac Purkinje fibers. Membrane potential was altered by overdriving pacemaker fibers showing spontaneous diastolic depolarization (dog), by injecting constantcurrent pulses through an intracellular microelectrode (sheep), or by voltage clamping (dog). Test action potentials were elicited at the end of 5...

متن کاملProlonged action potential duration in cardiac ablation of PDK1 mice.
The involvement of the AGC protein kinase family in regulating arrhythmia has drawn considerable attention, but the underlying mechanisms are still not clear. The aim of this study is to explore the role of 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK1), one of upstream protein kinases of the AGC protein kinase family, in the pathogenesis of dysregulated electrophysiological basis. PDK1(F...
