Sulfur dioxide derivatives depress L-type calcium channel in rat cardiomyocytes.

Abstract:

:1. Sulfur dioxide (SO(2) ) has recently been found to have various biological effects on the cardiovascular system. The present study was designed to explore the effects of SO(2) derivatives on the L-type calcium current (I (Ca, L) ) in isolated rat ventricular cardiomyocytes. 2. A Langendorf system was used to dissociate single ventricular cells. SO(2) derivatives from 5 to 1000 μmol/L were incubated with cardiomyocytes. The whole-cell patch-clamp technique was used to record I (Ca, L) . The effect of SO(2) derivatives on intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+) ](i) ) was detected by confocal microscopy. 3. Concentrations of 5 or 10 μmol/L SO(2) derivatives could not change I (Ca, L) evoked by a single pulse from -40 to 0 mV for 200 ms in rat ventricular cardiomyocytes; however, 50, 100, 500 or 1000 μmol/L SO(2) derivatives could depress the peak amplitudes of calcium currents in 6 min, and the I (Ca, L) was attenuated by 13.19%, 16.59%, 21.23% and 24.72%, respectively, as compared with corresponding controls (P < 0.05). The 50, 100, 500 or 1000 μmol/L SO(2) derivatives also depressed the peak I-V curves, without altering the reversal potential and the voltage dependence of the peak I (Ca, L) . Therefore, 1000 μmol/L SO(2) derivatives could reduce [Ca(2+) ](i) in cardiomyocytes. 4. The results of the present study suggest that SO(2) derivatives can depress I (Ca, L) in cardiomyocytes, which might have a protective effect in cardiovascular diseases.
