Objective: To determine whether cytokines alter the electrical properties of heart cells, the effects of human recombinant interleukin-1beta (IL-1) were examined in excised tissues and dissociated myocytes from guinea pig ventricles. Methods: In a first series of experiments, transmembrane potentials were recorded from isolated papillary muscles superfused with 1 ng.ml-1 IL-1 in the absence and presence of blockers of arachidonic acid metabolism. Secondly, to examine the ionic mechanisms underlying the response to IL-1, ventricular myocytes were dissociated from collagenase perfused hearts and studied using the whole cell configuration of the patch clamp technique under conditions designed to isolate the L-type Ca2+ current (I(Ca)). Results: In excised papillary muscles, IL-1 significantly prolonged action potential duration (measured at 90% repolarisation) by 24.2(SEM 2.2) ms and effective refractory period by 22.9(2.3) ms (both p
