Calcium concentration and movement in the ventricular cardiac cell during an excitation-contraction cycle

Abstract

This paper extends the model for Ca movement in the cardiac ventricular cell from the diadic cleft space to the entire sarcomere. The model predicts the following: 1) Shortly after SR release there is a [Ca] gradient >3 orders of magnitude from cleft center to M-line which, 50 ms after release, is still >30. Outside the cleft, 40 ms after cessation of release, the axial gradient from Z to M-line is >3. 2) At the end of SR release, >50% of the total Ca released is bound to low-affinity inner sarcolemmal phospholipid binding sites within the cleft. 3) Halving the SR release almost doubles the fraction of release removed from the cell via Na/Ca exchange and reduces average sarcomeric free [Ca] by 70%. 4) Adding 100 microM fluo-3, which doubles the buffering capacity of the cytoplasm, reduces peak average sarcomeric [Ca] by >50% and increases the initial half-time for [Ca] decrease by approximately twofold. 5) A typical Ca "spark" can be generated by an SR release 20% of maximum (4 x 10(-20) moles) over 2 ms. Fluo-3 (100 microM) significantly "shrinks" the spark. 6) The "spark" is a consequence of elementary events within the diadic cleft space. For example, removal of cleft binding sites would cause average sarcomeric Ca to increa...Continue Reading

Birth Defects

Birth defects encompass structural and functional alterations that occur during embryonic or fetal development and are present since birth. The cause may be genetic, environmental or unknown and can result in physical and/or mental impairment. Here is the latest research on birth defects.
