Abstract:
:Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) accumulation in intracellular and/or interstitial space in cardiomyocytes may underlie as a mechanism for tachycardia and various arrhythmias during cardiac ischemia, which is usually accompanied by elevation of intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i)). The present study was therefore designed to investigate possible mechanisms responsible for [Ca(2+)](i) elevation by LPC focusing on T-type Ca(2+) channel current (I(Ca.T)). LPC as well as phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) significantly accelerated the beating rates of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Augmentation of I(Ca.T) by LPC was dependent on the intracellular Ca(2+) concentration: an increase of I(Ca.T) was significantly larger in high [Ca(2+)](i) condition (pCa=7) than those in low [Ca(2+)](i) condition (pCa=11). In heterologous expression system by use of human cardiac Ca(V)3.1 and Ca(V)3.2 channels expressed in HEK293 cells, LPC augmented Ca(V)3.2 channel current (I(Cav3.2)) in a concentration-dependent manner but not Ca(V)3.1 channel current (I(Cav3.1)). Augmentation of I(Cav3.2) by LPC was highly [Ca(2+)](i) dependent: I(Cav3.2) was unchanged when pCa was 11 but was markedly increased when [Ca(2+)](i) was higher than 10(-10) M (pCa journal_name journal_title authors doi subject pub_date pages issue eissn issn pii journal_volume pub_type
