    Notizen: Abstract The bradycardic mechanism of ZD 7288 (4-(N-ethyl-N-phenylamino)-1,2-dimethyl-6-(methylamino)pyrimidinium chloride) was investigated in sheep cardiac Purkinje fibres. The pacemaker if-current measured with the two-microelectrode voltage-clamp technique, as well as the diastolic depolarization rate and the frequency of spontaneously active fibres were evaluated. ZD 7288 did inhibit if-current. The if-amplitude recorded with a 0.8s-lasting test pulse from about −50 mV to −100 mV was reduced to 50% of control at 0.85 μmol/l and to 5% of control at 10 μmol/l. The threshold potential of if-activation was unaffected at a concentration of 1 μmol/l ZD 7288. The time constant of if-activation at different test potentials was not changed by 1 μmol/l ZD 7288. The drug was equally effective during if-activation with a 0.5 s-lasting test pulse applied at 0.05 Hz or 0.5 Hz. During long lasting (5 s) hyperpolarizing test pulses (−120 mV) the inhibition of if-current was removed. In constantly stimulated Purkinje fibres (0.5 Hz) the slope of the early diastolic depolarization was decreased by ZD 7288. The half-maximal effect occurred at 0.92 μmol/l. There was strong correlation over the concentration range of 0.01 to 10 μmol/l ZD 7288 between the decrease of the slope of early diastolic depolarization and inhibition of if-amplitude recorded with 0.8s-lasting test pulses to −100 mV. The correlation coefficient was r = 0.97. These results will explain the decrease in frequency of spontaneously active (about 0.6 Hz) Purkinje fibres. At 0.3 μmol/l ZD 7288 spontaneous activity had stopped in 8 of 11 preparations. Complete recovery of drug-induced effects on the frequency was gained after 3 h of wash-out with drug-free solution.

    Notizen: Abstract The effects of zymosan and human serum opsonized zymosan on membrane currents of adherent mouse peritoneal macrophages which had been cultured for 5 to 20 days were investigated with the whole-cell voltage-clamp technique. Both stimuli activated an outward current. The outward current activation was transient and lasted about 5 min. In solutions with 10 or 50 mmol/l extracellular potassium concentration the activation of an outwardly directed current occurred at test potentials positive to the respective potassium equilibrium potential. This particle-induced current resembled a calciu-mactivated potassium current which could be activated with the calcium ionophore A 23187 and with platelet activating factor. The order of maximal responses (test potential +55 mV, amplitude given as percentage of the respective control) was: 0.1 μmol/l platelet activating factor (222±36%,n=8,P〈0.01) 〉 1 μmol/l A 23187 (190±24%,n=11,P〈0.01) 〉900 μg/ml opsonized zymosan (134±7%,n=22,P〈0.01) 〉900 μg/ml zymosan (116±5%,n = 21,P〈0.01) The lower efficiency of zymosan as compared to opsonized zymosan is explained in part by a lower percentage of responding cells which was 48% for zymosan and 73% for opsonized zymosan. Macrophages which were pretreated with particles showed a greater reactivity to calcium as compared to untreated cells. Elevation of extracellular calcium from 0.9 to 4.5 mmol/l activated the outward current to 145±12% (n = 11,P〈 0.01) after preincubation with opsonized zymosan and to 144±21% (n = 12,P〈 0.01) under the influence of zymosan while in untreated cells current increase by elevation of extracellular calcium was not significant (120±10%,n = 9, n.s.).

    Notizen: Abstract The inhibition of the pacemaker current (i f) in sheep cardiac Purkinje fibres by ZD 7288 [4-(N-ethyl-N-phenylamino)-1,2-dimethyl-6-(methylamino)pyrimidinium chloride] is lost use-dependently. This disinhibition of i f was investigated by using the two-microelectrode voltage-clamp technique. The pulse protocol consisted of a rest period (holding potential of about -50 mV, 1–10 μmol/l ZD 7288) followed by a train of test pulses (potential negative to -100 mV, stimulation frequency 0.05 Hz). At the beginning of the first test pulse there was an immediate reduction of i f but inhibition was lost during continued stimulation. Activation of i f is sigmoidal and the early delay in current activation was prolonged from 33 ms (no ZD 7288) to 424 ms (10 μmol/l ZD 7288). Therefore hardly any disinhibition occurred during short test pulses (0.5 s). During longer test pulses (5 s, -120 mV, 10 μmol/l) disinhibition developed with a time constant of about 2 s. The inhibition of i f by ZD 7288 was lost voltage-dependently. With 10 μmol/l ZD 7288 the half-maximal disinhibition occurred at -92 mV and the slope factor of the disinhibition/voltage curve (Boltzmann relation) was 4.8 mV. The voltage-dependent disinhibition could be abolished largely by extracellular application of protease (0.5 mg/ml, 7 min). After prior disinhibition, reinhibition at the holding potential (about -50 mV) followed a bi-exponential time course indicating that inhibition may be produced by a fast (τ=0.7 min) and a slow component (τ=20–30 min). Increasing ZD 7288 concentration from 1 to 10 μmol/l accelerated reinhibition, mainly by an increase of the amplitude (A) of the fast component. The ratio A fast/A sIow was 0.399 at 1 μmol/l and 2.65 at 10 μmol/1 ZD 7288. The reinhibition of i f was unchanged by shifting the holding potential from -50 mV to -20 mV Trials to wash out the effects of 10 μmol/l ZD 7288 gave two results. The inhibition of i f was slightly reversed after a wash-out of 1.5 h with drug-free solution. A second effect of the drug, the fast reinhibition, could be completely removed by washout. In summary i f is inhibited by ZD 7288 at membrane potentials at which the virtual i f gate is closed. Disinhibition occurs during long-lasting hyperpolarization but will hardly be operative in unclamped fibres under physiological conditions.

    Notizen: Summary The aim of the present study was to search for electrophysiological effects of human lipoproteins on membrane currents in mouse peritoneal macrophages which had been cultured for 5 to 20 days. Whole-cell currents were recorded by using a voltage-clamp technique. Low density lipoprotein (LDL, 100 μg/ml) increased a slowly activating nonspecific cation current (iso) in the positive potential range to 244 ± 23% of the reference (test potential + 55 mV, n = 13, P 〈 0.005). Augmentation of current resulted out of a negative shift of the activation curve along the voltage axis (−22 mV) and an increase of maximally available current. Furthermore, LDL increased a rapidly activating outward current (ifo) at test potentials positive to the potassium equilibrium potential. At +55 mV ifo-amplitude increasedto 165 ± 14% ofreference (n = 16, P 〈 0.005). LDL-induced effects on ifo-current could be mimicked by application of the calcium ionophore A 23187 (1 μmol/l) which led to an increase of ifo-current to 161 ± 25% of the reference (test potential + 55 mV, n = 11, P 〈 0.005). Acetylated-LDL (100 μg/ml, 5–15 min) produced no significant effect on the membrane currents under investigation.

    Notizen: Summary This study was aimed to differentiate the action of (+)- and (±)-sotalol (10–1000 μmol/l) on membrane currents which are active during the repolarization of cardiac action potentials Effects where studied in shortened sheep cardiac Purkinje fibres with the two-microelectrode voltage-clamp technique Action potentials were activated at a frequency of 0.25 Hz and membrane currents at 0.03 Hz or 0.05 Hz in most experiments. Out of the currents investigated the transient outward current (ito) reacted most sensitively to (+)- and (±)-sotalol. Ito-amplitude was decreased on the average to 77% of reference at 10 μmol/l and to 53% at 1000 μmol/l (+)- or (±)-sotalol. The maximally available ito-current was decreased but the voltage-dependent control of inactivation was left nearly unchanged. The initial inwardly rectifying current (iKi), which propels the last repolarization phase of the action potential and controls resting potential to a large extent was reduced on the average to 93% of reference at 10 μmol/l and to 62% at 1000 μmol/l (+)- or (±)-sotalol. Time-dependent (delayed) outward current (iK) was on the average not affected by (+)- or (±)-sotalol up to 100 μmol/l and was decreased to 84% of reference current under the influence of 1000 μmol/l. An initial outward current, which is activated at positive membrane potentials (iinst) was not clearly affected by (+)- or (±)-sotalol at concentrations up to 1000 μmol/l Pacemaker current (if) was not influenced by the drugs up to 100 μmol/l. Only at 1000 μmol/l was the amount of available if-current decreased to 79% of reference. (The potential-dependent control of activation was not affected) Time constants of time-dependent currents ito, iK and if did not change in concentrations up to 1000 μmol/l of the drug. Action potential duration increased at (+)- or (±)-sotalol concentrations ≥ 10 μmol/l and maximal prolongation was achieved at concentrations of 100–300 μmol/l Resting potential remained nearly unchanged at these concentrations, but the membranes depolarized at 1000 μmol/l. According to our data action potential prolongation in sheep Purkinje fibres under the influence of (+)- and (±)-sotalol correlates to the drug-induced block to ito-current and inwardly rectifying iK1-current.
