Abstract The influence of acute temperature change and temperature acclimation on the sensitivity of contracture development to ryanodine were examined in the rainbow trout myocardium using two preparations: in vitro isolated ventricular strips and in situ working perfused hearts. Ryanodine effects in vitro were dependent on test temperature (8 and 18 °C), pacing frequency (0.2–1.5 Hz) and acclimation temperature (8 and 18 °C). At a pacing frequency of 0.2 Hz and a test temperature of 18 °C, ryanodine depressed isometric tension development in ventricular strips both from trout acclimated to 8 and 18 °C but the decrease was significantly greater in strips from 8 °C-acclimated trout. No ryanodine effect was observed in either acclimation group at a test temperature of 8°C. The effect of ryanodine in vitro was reduced or lost at pacing frequencies greater than 0.2 Hz and at 0.6 Hz ryanodine depressed tension development at 18 °C only in strips from 8 °C-acclimated trout. Ryanodine did not affect tension development at stimulation rates above 0.6 Hz in any test group. Likewise, ryanodine did not significantly impair cardiac performance of in situ working perfused heart preparations which operated at intrinsic beat frequencies in excess of 0.6 Hz. These results suggest that the sarcoplamic reticulum calcium release channel of the trout myocardium is expressed but is not functionally involved in beat-to-beat regulation of contractility at either (1) low temperature (8 °C), or (2) at routine physiological heart rate (〉0.6 Hz). However, under conditions in which involvement of the sarcoplasmic reticulum is observed (18 °C and a heart rate 〈 0.6 Hz), prior acclimation to low temperature results in either a greater capacity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum to store releasable calcium or an increase in the amount of calcium that is in releasable form.
