Summary: | [...]the unedited line was the isogenic control line. Pre-treatment with the Ca desensitizer blebbistatin (3 μmol/l) or excess cytosolic buffering (by adding 14 mmol/l ethylene glycol tetraacetic acid to intracellular solutions) prevented AP triangulation (Figure 1B). Taken together, our results indicate that myofilament-dependent increase in cytosolic Ca buffering shortens early repolarization via a Ca-dependent, NCX-mediated mechanism, resulting in AP triangulation and AP instability, both of which are well-established predictors of increased arrhythmia risk (5). |
