Abstract
The concentration of ionized cytosolic calcium [( Ca2+]i) was determined in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from normal and malignant hyperthermia (MH)-susceptible humans and pigs, using the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator indo-1. [Ca2+]i was slightly but significantly elevated in cells from MH human cells relative to normal cells (198 +/- 18 nM, n = 15, and 146 +/- 14 nM, n = 11, respectively, P less than 0.05). Anesthetic concentrations of halothane in the cell suspension resulted in a rapid increase in [Ca2+]i in cells from both normal and MH humans or pigs. The increases (delta) were more pronounced in cells from MH subjects than from normal individuals (delta at 5.7 mM halothane: 245 +/- 53 vs. 57 +/- 11 nM, respectively) and from MH than from normal pigs (delta of 241 +/- 63 vs. 53 +/- 27 nM, respectively). Removal of extracellular Ca2+ obliterated the delta[Ca2+]i caused by halothane in cells from normal humans or pigs but only decreased by about half the delta[Ca2+]i in cells from MH humans or pigs. In 1,2-bis-(aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid (BAPTA)-loaded cells, in the absence of extracellular Ca2+, halothane failed to increase [Ca2+]i. This suggests that buffering Cai2+ with BAPTA precludes detection of ...Continue Reading
