Diastolic intracellular calcium-membrane voltage coupling gain and postshock arrhythmias: role of purkinje fibers and triggered activity.
RATIONALE Recurrent ventricular arrhythmias after initial successful defibrillation are associated with poor clinical outcome. OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that postshock arrhythmias occur because of spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca release, delayed afterdepolarization (DAD), and triggered activity (TA) from tissues with high sensitivity of resting membrane voltage (V(m)) to elevat...
متن کاملFunctional coupling of intracellular calcium and inactivation of voltage-gated Kv1.1/Kvbeta1.1 A-type K+ channels.
Voltage-gated Kv1.1/Kvbeta1.1 A-type channels, as a natural complex, can switch from fast to slow inactivation under oxidation/reduction conditions. The mode-switching of inactivation, which is mediated by a cysteine residue in the inactivation ball domain of the Kvbeta1.1 N terminus, can regulate membrane electrical excitability. In the present study, we identified a mechanism whereby inactiva...
متن کاملMembrane Calcium Activation in Excitation-Contraction Coupling
Depolarization thresholds for eliciting tension and Ca electrogenesis have been compared in isolated crayfish muscle fibers. Just-detectable tensions and Ca spikes induced after treatment with procaine were elicited with intracellularly applied depolarizing currents of fixed duration. Both thresholds were found to increase in a similar manner in fibers exposed to increased concentrations of Ca ...
متن کاملIntracellular calcium, currents, and stimulus-response coupling in endothelial cells.
Vascular endothelium appears to be a unique organ. It not only responds to numerous hormonal and chemical signals but also senses changes in physical parameters such as shear stress, producing mediators that modulate the responses of numerous cells, including vascular smooth muscle, platelets, and leukocytes. In many cases, the initial response of endothelial cells to these diverse signals invo...
متن کاملHigh voltage gain DC-DC resonant converter
In this paper, a DC-DC resonant converter with high voltage gain and small size is studied. To reduce the size and weight of this converter, the operating frequency should be as high as possible. In this research, the frequency changes from 120 to 200 kHz. Due to the high operating frequency, it is necessary to reduce the switching losses using soft switching methods. Resonant converters are su...
