“…Furthermore, in cardiomyopathic hamsters, n-3 PUFA administration led to a significant improvement in the peak rate of tension rise and peak rate of tension fall, which indicated a faster rate of muscle contraction and relaxation, respectively (15). These effects are likely related to the prevention of Ca 2ϩ overload and to the decrease of sarcoplasmatic reticulum Ca 2ϩ content (16). Taken together, these findings may suggest potential mechanisms underlying the amelioration of diastolic function parameters observed in our active treatment group.…”

“…To observe arrhythmias (ventricular extrasystoles), the cells were bathed with 10 nM isoproterenol and stimulated with a 30-s pacing period (1.0 Hz), followed by a 30-s rest period [20,26]. Confocal imaging was performed using a Zeiss LSM510 confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, Germany) equipped with an argon laser (488 nm) and a 60 Â , 1.3 NA oil immersion objective set at axial and radial resolutions of 1.0 and 0.4 mm, respectively.…”

“…Panel (B) shows the average effect of the PV spontaneous activity generated by the EPA in the presence of L-NAME (n = 6). currents and sodium-calcium exchanger activity, while EPA increased inward rectifier potassium currents, and increased slow delayed rectifier potassium currents (Berecki et al, 2007;Saravanan et al, 2010;Verkerk et al, 2006). Decreased L-type calcium currents and decreased sodium-calcium exchanger activity may reduce the PV spontaneous activity and triggered activity (Wongcharoen et al, 2006).…”

“…Other reports indicate that acute administration of ω3-PUFAs docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) inhibits the formation of noradrenalin-induced triggered activity and reduces the number of delayed afterdepolarizations (DADs) and calcium aftertransients (Den Ruijter et al, 2008). Fish oil creates anti-arrhythmic potentials through ionic regulation (Berecki et al, 2007;Li et al, 2009;Verkerk et al, 2006). However, the anti-AF mechanism of EPA remains unclear.…”
