Abstract:
The hypothesis that calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in cardiac
muscle is induced by rises in free cytosolic calcium (Fabiato 1983, Am. J.
Physiol 245) allows the possibility that the release could be at least partly
regenerative. There would then be a non-linear relation between calcium current
and calcium release. We have investigated this possibility in a single-cell
version of the rabbit-atrial model developed by Hilgemann & Noble (1987, Proc.
R. Soc. Lond. B 230). The model predicts different voltage ranges of activation
for calcium-dependent processes (like the sodium-calcium exchange current,
contraction or Fura-2 signals) and the calcium current, in agreement with the
experimental results obtained by Earm et al. (1990, Proc. R. Soc. Lond. B 240)
on exchange current tails, Cannell et al. (1987, Science, Wash. 238) by using
Fura-2 signals, and Fedida et al. (1987, J. Physiol., Lond. 385) and Talo et al.
(1988, Biology of isolated adult cardiac myocytes) by using contraction.
However, when the Fura-2 concentration is sufficiently high (greater than 200
microM) the activation ranges become very similar as the buffering properties of
Fura-2 are sufficient to remove the regenerative effect. It is therefore
important to allow for the buffering properties of calcium indicators when
investigating the correlation between calcium current and calcium release.
