| Abstract | The contractile system of rat cardiac muscle that has been made hyperpermeable by soaking the tissue in EGTA (McClellan and Winegrad. 1978. J. Gen. Physiol. 72:737-764) can be probed directly with Ca buffer from the bathing solution without significant interference from either sarcoplasmic reticulum or mitochondria on the Ca concentration. Changes in Ca-activated force are due therefore to changes in the properties of the contractile system itself and not to regulation of Ca concentration. The addition of cAMP, cGMP, and GTP, guanylyl imidodiphosphate (GMP-PNP), or epinephrine to the bath does not alter maximum Ca-activated force, but when these drugs are added with 1% nonionic detergent to the bath, contractility increases by as much as 180%. An inhibitor of phosphodiesterase must be present for the inotropic effect of cAMP but not cGMP, GTP, GMP-PNP, or epinephrine. The inotropic response to cAMP is independent of the Ca sensitivity of the contractile system, but guanine nucleotides enhance contractility only when Ca sensitivity is not high. The inotropic effect of epinephrine is inhibited to a large extent by cGMP but not by GMP-PNP. These data can be explained by a model in which contractility is enhanced by a cAMP-regulated phosphorylation that can be controlled through the beta-receptor adenylate cyclase complex in the sarcolemma. The regulation involves two reactions, one a phosphorylation and a second that occurs in the presence of detergent. Phosphorylation of neither the myosin light chain nor the inhibitory subunit of troponin appears to be involved in this mechanism for regulating contractility. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
