An increase in cytosolic free Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](cyt)) results from Ca(2+) release from intracellular stores and extracellular Ca(2+) influx through Ca(2+)-permeable ion channels and is crucial for initiating intestinal epithelial restitution to reseal superficial wounds after mucosal injury. Capacitative Ca(2+) entry (CCE) induced by Ca(2+) store depletion represents a major Ca(2+)...
Early mucosal restitution occurs as a consequence of intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) migration to reseal superficial wounds, but its exact mechanism remains largely unknown. Caveolin-1 (Cav1), a major component associated with caveolar lipid rafts in the plasma membrane, is implicated in many aspects of cellular functions. This study determined if c-Src kinase (Src)-induced Cav1 phosphorylatio...
Action potential duration and contractility are reduced following premature excitations, and gradually increase as the stimulus interval is lengthened. To examine these phenomena of electrical and mechanical restitution in the human heart, we simultaneously measured action potential duration and the maximum rate of left ventricular pressure in five patients undergoing electrophysiological study...
Cell coupling is considered to be important for cardiac action potential propagation and arrhythmogenesis. We carried out computer simulations to investigate the effects of stimulation strength and cell-to-cell coupling on action potential duration (APD) restitution, APD alternans, and stability of reentry in models of isolated cell, one-dimensional cable, and two-dimensional tissue. Phase I fo...
We extend a nonstandard asymptotic method proposed earlier, for calculation of conduction velocity restitution curves in ionic models of cardiac excitability. Conduction velocity restitution is the simplest nontrivial spatially extended problem in excitable media, and in the case of cardiac tissue it is an important tool for prediction of cardiac arrythmias and fibrillation. An idealized conduc...
Transgenic mice have been increasingly utilized to investigate the molecular mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias, yet the rate dependence of the murine action potential duration and the electrical restitution curve (ERC) remain undefined. In the present study, 21 isolated, Langendorff-perfused, and atrioventricular node-ablated mouse hearts were studied. Left ventricular and left atrial action po...
Various growth factors are suggested to be involved in gastric mucosal repair. Our previous studies have shown that exogenous hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has a proliferative effect on gastric epithelial cells. In the present study, comparison of the maximum proliferative effects and the optimum concentrations of several growth factors revealed that HGF was the most potent mitogen for gastric...
Na+ channel blockers flecainide and quinidine can increase propensity to ventricular tachyarrhythmia, whereas lidocaine and mexiletine are recognized as safe antiarrhythmics. Clinically, ventricular fibrillation is often precipitated by transient tachycardia that reduces action potential duration, suggesting that a critical shortening of the excitation wavelength (EW) may contribute to the arrh...
Influence of channel subunit composition on L-type Ca2+ current kinetics and cardiac wave stability.
Previous studies have demonstrated that the slope of the function relating the action potential duration (APD) and the diastolic interval, known as the APD restitution curve, plays an important role in the initiation and maintenance of ventricular fibrillation. Since the APD restitution slope critically depends on the kinetics of the L-type Ca(2+) current, we hypothesized that manipulation of t...
Short-term memory and restitution during ventricular fibrillation in human hearts: an in vivo study.
BACKGROUND Action potential duration (APD) variation is an important determinant of wave break and reentry. The determinants of APD variability during early ventricular fibrillation (VF) in myopathic human hearts have not been studied. The objective of this study was to study the role of APD restitution and short-term cardiac memory on variation in human VF. METHODS AND RESULTS The study cons...
