BackgroundThe propagation velocity of Ca2 +waves determines delayed afterdepolarization and affects the occurrence of triggered arrhythmias in cardiac muscle. We focused on myofilament Ca2 +sensitivity, investigating how the velocity of Ca2 +waves responds to its increased sensitivity resulting from muscle stretch or the addition of a myofilament Ca2 +sensitizer, SCH00013. We further investigated whether production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) may be involved in the change in velocity.MethodsTrabeculae were obtained from rat hearts. Force, sarcomere length, and [Ca2 +]iwere measured. ROS production was estimated from 2′,7′-dichlorofluorescein (DCF) fluorescence. Trabeculae were exposed to a 10 mM Ca2 +jet for the induction of Ca2 +leak from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in its exposed region. Ca2 +waves were induced by 2.5-Hz stimulus trains for 7.5 s (24 °C, 2.0 mM [Ca2 +]o). Muscle stretch of 5, 10, and 15% was applied 300 ms after the last stimulus of the train.ResultsMuscle stretch increased the DCF fluorescence, the amplitude of aftercontractions, and the velocity of Ca2 +waves depending on the degree of stretch. After preincubation with 3 μM diphenyleneiodonium (DPI), muscle stretch increased only the amplitude of aftercontractions but not the DCF fluorescence nor the velocity of Ca2 +waves. SCH00013 (30 μM) increased the DCF fluorescence, the amplitude of aftercontractions, and the velocity of Ca2 +waves. DPI suppressed these increases.ConclusionsMuscle stretch increases the velocity of Ca2 +waves by increasing ROS production, not by increasing myofilament Ca2 +sensitivity. In the case of SCH00013, ROS production increases myofilament Ca2 +sensitivity and the velocity of Ca2 +waves. These results suggest that ROS rather than myofilament Ca2 +sensitivity plays an important role in the determination of the velocity of Ca2 +waves, that is, arrhythmogenesis.
