Characterization of a transient outward K+ current with inward rectification in canine ventricular myocytes.
The threshold potential for the classical depolarization-activated transient outward K+ current and Cl- current is positive to -30 mV. With the whole cell patch technique, a transient outward current was elicited in the presence of 5 mM 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) and 5 μM ryanodine at voltages positive to the K+ equilibrium potential in canine ventricular myocytes. The current was abolished by 200 ...
متن کاملTransient Outward Current?
To gain insight into the molecular basis of cardiac repolarization, we have expressed K' channels cloned from ventricular myocardium in Xenopus oocytes. A recently identified human cardiac K' channel isoform (human Kvl.4) has properties similar to the 4-aminopyridine-sensitive calcium-insensitive component of the cardiac transient outward current. However, these channels recovered from inactiva...
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 کاملKv4.3-Encoded Fast Transient Outward Current Is Presented in Kv4.2 Knockout Mouse Cardiomyocytes
Gradients of the fast transient outward K+ current (Ito,f) contribute to heterogeneity of ventricular repolarization in a number of species. Cardiac Ito,f levels and gradients change notably with heart disease. Human cardiac Ito,f appears to be encoded by the Kv4.3 pore-forming α-subunit plus the auxiliary KChIP2 β-subunit while mouse cardiac Ito,f requires Kv4.2 and Kv4.3 α-subunits plus KChIP...
متن کاملExistence of a transient outward K(+) current in guinea pig cardiac myocytes.
A novel transient outward K(+) current that exhibits inward-going rectification (I(to.ir)) was identified in guinea pig atrial and ventricular myocytes. I(to.ir) was insensitive to 4-aminopyridine (4-AP) but was blocked by 200 micromol/l Ba(2+) or removal of external K(+). The zero current potential shifted 51-53 mV/decade change in external K(+). I(to.ir) density was twofold greater in ventric...
