Abstract

Background —Ventricular arrhythmias are a major cause of sudden death in patients with heart failure and hypertrophy. The dog with chronic complete atrioventricular block (CAVB) has biventricular hypertrophy and ventricular arrhythmias and is a useful model to study underlying cellular mechanisms. We investigated whether changes in Ca 2+ homeostasis are part of the contractile adaptation to CAVB and might contribute to arrhythmogenesis. Methods and Results —In enzymatically isolated myocytes, cell shortening, Ca 2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), and SR Ca 2+ content were enhanced at low stimulation frequencies. Ca 2+ influx through L-type Ca 2+ channels was unchanged, but Ca 2+ influx via the Na/Ca exchanger was increased and contributed to Ca 2+ loading of the SR. Inward Na/Ca exchange currents were also larger. Changes in Ca 2+ fluxes were less pronounced in the right versus left ventricle. Conclusions —Enhanced Na/Ca exchange activity may improve contractile adaptation to CAVB but at the same time facilitate arrhythmias by (1) increasing the propensity to Ca 2+ overload, (2) providing more inward current leading to (nonhomogeneous) action potential prolongation, and (3) enhancing (arrhythmogenic) currents during spontaneous Ca 2+ release.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
