Abstract:
BACKGROUND & AIMS:In human and canine colon, both slow (slow waves, 2-8/min) and fast (myenteric potential oscillations [MPOs]; 16-20/min) electrical rhythms in the smooth muscle originate at the submucosal and myenteric borders, respectively. We used Ca(2+) imaging to investigate whether interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) at these borders generated distinct rhythms. METHODS:Segments of canine colon were pinned with submucosal or myenteric surface uppermost or cut in cross section. Tissues were loaded with a Ca(2+) indicator (fluo-4), and activity was monitored at 36.5 +/- 0.5 degrees C using an electron multiplying charge coupled device (EMCCD). RESULTS:Rhythmic, biphasic Ca(2+) transients (5-8/min), similar in waveform to electrical slow waves, propagated without decrement as a wave front (2-5 mm/s) through the ICC-SM network lying along the submucosal surface of the circular muscle (CM). In contrast, rhythmic intracellular Ca(2+) waves (approximately 16/min) and spontaneous reductions in Ca(2+) were observed in ICCs at the myenteric border (ICC-MY). Normally, intracellular Ca(2+) waves were unsynchronized between adjacent ICC-MY, although excitatory nerve activity synchronized activity. In addition, spontaneous reductions in Ca(2+) were observed that inhibited Ca(2+) waves. N omega-nitro-L-arginine (100 micromol/L; nitric oxide antagonist) blocked the reductions in Ca(2+) and increased the frequency (approximately 19/min) of intracellular Ca(2+) waves within ICC-MY. CONCLUSIONS:ICC-SMs form a tightly coupled network that is able to generate and propagate slow waves. In contrast, Ca(2+) transients in ICC-MYs, which are normally not synchronized, have a similar duration and frequency as MPOs. Like MPOs, their activity is inhibited by nitrergic nerves and synchronized by excitatory nerves.
