Modulation of Cardiac Ryanodine Receptor Channels by Alkaline Earth Cations
Cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) function is modulated by Ca(2+) and Mg(2+). To better characterize Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) binding sites involved in RyR2 regulation, the effects of cytosolic and luminal earth alkaline divalent cations (M(2+): Mg(2+), Ca(2+), Sr(2+), Ba(2+)) were studied on RyR2 from pig ventricle reconstituted in bilayers. RyR2 were activated by M(2+) binding to high affinity activ...
متن کاملModulation of ryanodine receptor Ca2+ channels (Review).
Ryanodine-sensitive Ca2+ release channels (ryanodine receptors, RyRs) play a crucial role in the mobilization of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) during the excitation-contraction coupling of muscle cells. In skeletal muscle, depolarization of transverse tubules activates the RyR, whereas in cardiac muscle, a Ca2+ influx through an L-type Ca2+ channel activates the RyR. The RyR is also...
متن کاملAdaptation of single cardiac ryanodine receptor channels.
Single cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR) channel adaptation was previously defined with Ca2+ stimuli produced by flash photolysis of DM-nitrophen (caged-Ca+2). Photolysis of DM-nitrophen induced a very fast Ca+2 overshoot (Ca+2 spike) at the leading edge of the Ca+2 stimuli. It has been suggested that adaptation (tau approximately 1.3 s) may reflect Ca+2 slowly coming off the RyR Ca+2 activation...
متن کاملFlux regulation of cardiac ryanodine receptor channels
The cardiac type 2 ryanodine receptor (RYR2) is activated by Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR). The inherent positive feedback of CICR is well controlled in cells, but the nature of this control is debated. Here, we explore how the Ca2+ flux (lumen-to-cytosol) carried by an open RYR2 channel influences its own cytosolic Ca2+ regulatory sites as well as those on a neighboring channel. Both flux-d...
متن کاملAN NMR STUDY OF IONIC SOLVATION OF ALKALINE EARTH CATIONS WITH DIMETHYLSULFOXIDE IN NITROMETHANE SOLUTION
A proton NMR method for the determination of the solvation numbers of alkaline earth cations with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) in nitromethane as diluent is described. The method is based on the monitoring of the resonance frequency of DMSO protons as a function of DMSO to metal ion mole ratio while keeping the metal ion concentration constant. The average solvation number of cations at any...
