Frequency-dependent regulation of cardiac Na+/Ca2+ exchanger
2005
The activity of the cardiac Na+/Ca2+ exchanger (NCX1.1) undergoes continuous modulation during the contraction-relaxation cycle because of the accompanying changes in the electrochemical gradients for Na+ and Ca2+. In addition, NCX1.1 activity is also modulated via secondary, ionic regulatory mechanisms mediated by Na+ and Ca2+. In an effort to evaluate how ionic regulation influences exchange activity under pulsatile conditions, we studied the behavior of the cloned NCX1.1 during frequency-controlled changes in intracellular Na+ and Ca+ (Na\batchmode \documentclass[fleqn,10pt,legalpaper]{article} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amsmath} \pagestyle{empty} \begin{document} \(_{\mathrm{i}}^{{+}}\) \end{document} and Ca\batchmode \documentclass[fleqn,10pt,legalpaper]{article} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amsmath} \pagestyle{empty} \begin{document} \(_{\mathrm{i}}^{2{+}}\) \end{document}). Na+/Ca2+ exchange activity was measured by the giant excised patch-clamp...
