چکیده

Ca2+extrusion from rabbit inferior vena cava smooth muscle was studied using ratiometric fura 2 fluorimetry. Concomitant blockade of the plasma membrane Ca2+-adenosinetriphosphatase (ATPase; PCMA), Na+-Ca2+exchanger, and sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) completely prevented the decline in intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) normally observed when Ca2+ is removed from the extracellular space (ECS) after stimulated Ca2+ influx. Blockade of the Na+-Ca2+exchanger by removal of external Na+ reduced the rate of [Ca2+]idecline by 47%. Blockade of SERCA with cyclopiazonic acid reduced it by 23%, and this was not additive to the effects of Na+ removal. Exposure to nominally Ca2+-free solution prevented the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) from reloading only if the Na+-Ca2+exchanger was operational. Our results can be explained by an SR contribution to Ca2+ extrusion in which SERCA is arranged in series with Na+-Ca2+exchange.

A quantitative model for refilling of the sarcoplasmic reticulum during vascular smooth muscle asynchronous [Ca] oscillations

We have developed a quantitative model describing the refilling of the sarcoplasmic reticulum during asynchronous [Ca2+]i oscillations in smooth muscle cells of the rabbit inferior vena cava. We have combined confocal microscopy data on the [Ca2+]i oscillations, force transduction data from cell contraction studies and electron microscopy images to build a basis for computational simulations th...

A quantitative model for refilling of the sarcoplasmic reticulum during vascular smooth muscle asynchronous [Ca2+] oscillations

We have developed a quantitative model for the creation of cytoplasmic Ca gradients near the inner surface of the plasma membrane (PM). In particular we simulated the refilling of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) via PM-SR junctions during asynchronous [Ca2+]i oscillations in smooth muscle cells of the rabbit inferior vena cava. We have combined confocal microscopy data on the [Ca2+]i oscillatio...

Asynchronous Ca Waves in Intact Venous Smooth Muscle

The rabbit inferior vena cava (IVC) is a large-capacitance vessel that displays typical contractile dose-response curves for caffeine and phenylephrine (PE). Using confocal microscopy on the endothelium-denuded IVC, we undertook experiments to correlate these whole-tissue contractile dose-response curves with changes in subcellular [Ca]i signals in the in situ vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC...

Ca2+-transport ATPases of vascular smooth muscle.

To characterize the Ca2+-transport properties of the plasma membrane and of the endoplasmic reticulum of bovine pulmonary artery, membrane vesicles are subfractionated by a procedure of density-gradient centrifugation that takes advantage of the selective effect of digitonin on the density of plasma-membrane vesicles. The obtained endoplasmic-reticulum fraction contains hardly any plasma-membra...
