Effects of lysophosphatidylcholine on resting potassium conductance of isolated guinea pig ventricular cells

Abstract: We studied the effects of lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), a toxic metabolite of ischemia, on the inward rectifier potassium channel current in isolated guinea pig ventricular cells. LPC (10-50 microM) added to the external solution decreased the resting membrane potential and occasionally induced repetitive action potential discharges, with or without loss of repolarization. In voltage clamp studies, LPC (20 microM) decreased the conductance at the levels of resting potentials (approximately equal to -80 mV) fr… Show more

“…Nevertheless the detergent effects of lysophospholipids have been implicated as causative factors of arrhythmogenesis during ischaemia (Corr et al, 1981;1984; by affecting a wide variety of membrane-linked processes, particularly by inhibiting the conductance of the inward rectifier K+ channel (Clarkson & Ten Eick, 1983;Kiyosue & Arita, 1986). The threshold concentration for affecting K+ conductance in guinea-pig myocytes was found to be 10pM (Kiyosue & Arita, 1986), which was the threshold concentration for the effects of LPC in the present study. Tachycardia followed by asystole would be expected from an agent affecting K+ conductance and this parallels the excitability changes seen in ischaemic tissue (Corr et al, 1987).…”

“…37 In ventricular myocytes, LPC modulates the Na ϩ current by PKC-dependent and tyrosine kinasedependent phosphorylation. 10 However, a controversy still exists, because LPC and PKC isoforms are not tissuespecific. Therefore, to determine whether LPC might suppress atrial release of ANP through PKC, several inhibitors for PKC or PI3 kinase were used.…”

“…After loading with 2 mol/L fura 2-AM (Molecular Probes) for 20 minutes at room temperature, atrial myocytes were attached to a perfusion chamber coated with matrix gel, stimulated at 1 Hz, and perfused with HEPES buffer containing Ca 2ϩ at a concentration of 1 mmol/L at a rate of 0.7 mL/min for 5 minutes. LPC (10,30, or 100 mol/L; nϭ8 to 10) was perfused for 5 minutes. Three types of LPCs (nϭ8 to 10)-stearoyl-LPC, lauroyl-LPC, and myristoyl-LPC-were also used.…”

“…LPC decreases IK1 by decreasing the single channel conductance (Kiyosue & Arita, 1986;Sato et al 1993). LPC has also been reported to open non-selective pores permeable to Na¤, K¤, Ca¥ and NMDG, but not to aspartate, in guineapig ventricular cells (Magishi et al 1996).…”
