[The role of isoprenaline-induced, calcium-activated transient outward chloride current in atrial electrical remodeling of rabbit].

OBJECTIVE
To investigate the relationship between the changes of the L-type calcium current (I(Ca, L)) and the calcium-activated transient outward chloride current (I(Cl, Ca)), and the repolarization characteristic of action potential in phase 1 under isoprenaline (ISO) stimulation in atrium myocytes of rabbit.


METHODS
Atrium myocytes were obtained by enzymatic dissociation from a section of atrial free wall. The membrane currents and action potential were recorded by the whole-cell patch-clamp technique.


RESULTS
After recording I(Ca, L), atrium myocytes were perfused with ISO (1 micromol/L) immediately. Five minutes later, a transient outward current (I(to)) was significantly induced, and the peak of I(to) was gradually increased while I(Ca, L) gradually decreased with increasing in clamp voltage. The I(to) was resistant to 4-AP (3 mmol/L) but sensitive to DIDS (150 micromol/L, Cl(-) channel blocker). This current was blocked by CdCl(2) (200 micromol/L, Ca(2+) channel blocker). The elicited rate of I(to) was 91.67% (P < 0.05). (2) The shape of AP was like an inverse triangle with no plateau in Phase 2 after ISO (1 micromol/L) perfusion. Moreover, compared to the parameters of control group, APD(50) and APD(90) were significantly shortened from (65.4 +/- 4.2) ms and (95.8 +/- 3.8) ms to (12.8 +/- 3.8) ms and (27.0 +/- 4.7) ms, and reduced to 80.46% and 71.87%, respectively (P < 0.01, n = 12). 4-AP (3 mmol/L) had on obvious effect on the shape of AP, however, the plateau of AP in phase 2 was recovered by DIDS (150 micromol/L) perfusion, APD(50) and APD(90) were (41.1 +/- 4.5) ms and (79.6 +/- 3.4) ms respectively. Compared to the parameters of control group, there were no significant differences (P > 0.05, n = 12). These results indicated that ionic transport were changed by ISO perfusion in atrium myocytes and I(to) played an important role in the phase 1 repolarization of AP.


CONCLUSIONS
Before ISO administration, we could only observe I(Ca, L) in atrium myocytes of rabbit. After isoproterenol intervention, certain intracellular ionic consistency and membrane ionic channels were changed. Calcium activated chloride channel and I(to2) revealed obvious predominance which shorten APD significantly. Action potential showed a triangle with no plateau, suggesting an electrical remodeling in atrium myocytes. The remodeling of ionic channel is related possibly with the opening of Ca(2+)-activated Cl(-) current, which maybe the electrophysiological base of reentrant atrial tachycardia.
