| Abstract | The effects of the adenylyl cyclase activator forskolin on steady-state and transient currents generated by the Na+-K+ pump were studied in guinea-pig ventricular myocytes by means of whole-cell voltage clamp at 30 °C. In external solution containing 144 mM Na+ ( Na o + ) and 10 mM K+ ( K o + ), steady-state Na+-K+ pump current (I p) activated by 5 mM pipette Na+ ( Na pip + ) at -20 mV was reversibly augmented by forskolin (4 μM) to 133 ± 4 % of the control current (n = 15). The forskolin analogue 1,9-dideoxyforskolin (10 μM), which does not activate adenylyl cyclases, did not increase I p (n = 2). Application of the protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor H-89 (10 μM) in the continued presence of forskolin reversed the forskolin-induced elevation of I p (n = 3). The forskolin effect on I p persisted in the presence of 50 mM Na pip + which ensured that the internal Na+-binding sites of the Na+-K+ pump were nearly saturated. Under these conditions, the drug increased I p to 142 ± 3 % of the control I p when the pipette free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]pip) was 0·013 nM (n = 5) and to 138 ± 4 % of the control I p when free [Ca2+]pip was 15 nM (n = 9). In Na+-free external solution, I p activated by 50 mM Na pip + and 1·5 mM K o + was likewise increased by forskolin but to a lesser extent than in Na+-containing medium (116 ± 3 % of control, n = 10). In order to investigate exclusively partial reactions in the Na+ limb of the pump cycle, transient pump currents under conditions of electroneutral Na+-Na+ exchange were studied. Transient pump currents elicited by voltage jumps displayed an initial peak and then decayed monoexponentially. Moved charge (Q) and the rate constant of current decay varied with membrane potential (V). The Q-V relationship followed a Boltzmann distribution characterized by the midpoint voltage (V 0·5) and the maximum amount of movable charge (ΔQ max). Forskolin (2-10 μM) shifted V 0·5 to more negative values while ΔQ max was not affected (n = 11). The effects of forskolin on transient pump currents were mimicked by 8-bromo-cAMP (500 μM; n = 2) and abolished by a peptide inhibitor of PKA (PKI, 10 μM; n = 5). We conclude that activation of the cAMP-PKA pathway in guinea-pig ventricular myocytes increases Na+-K+ pump current at least in part by modulating partial reactions in the Na+ limb of the pump cycle. Under physiological conditions, the observed stimulation of the cardiac Na+-K+ pump may serve to shorten the action potential duration and to counteract the increased passive sarcolemmal Na+ and K+ fluxes during sympathetic stimulation of the heart. |

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.
