Recent evidence indicates that membrane voltage and Ca2+ clocks jointly regulate sinoatrial node (SAN) automaticity. Here we test the hypothesis that sinus rate acceleration by β-adrenergic stimulation involves synergistic interactions between these clock mechanisms. We simultaneously mapped intracellular calcium (Cai) and membrane potential (Vm) in 25 isolated canine right atrium (RA), using previously described criteria of the timing of late diastolic Cai elevation (LDCAE) relative to the action potential (AP) upstroke to detect the Ca2+ clock. Before isoproterenol, the earliest pacemaking site occurred in the inferior SAN, and LDCAE was observed in only 4/25 preparations. Isoproterenol (1 μmol/L) increased sinus rate and shifted pacemaking site to superior SAN, concomitant with the appearance of LDCAE preceding the AP upstroke by 98 ± 31 ms. Caffeine had similar effects, while SR Ca2+ depletion with ryanodine and thapsigargin prevented isoproterenol-induced LDCAE and blunted sinus rate acceleration. Cai transient relaxation time during ISO was shorter in superior SAN (124 ± 34 ms) than inferior SAN (138 ± 24 ms, p = 0.01) or RA (164 ± 33 ms, p = 0.001), and was associated with a lower SR Ca2+ ATPase pump to phospholamban protein ratio in SAN than in RA. If current blockade with ZD 7288 modestly blunted, but did not prevent LDCAE or sinus rate acceleration by isoproterenol. Acceleration of the Ca2+ clock in the superior SAN plays an important role in sinus acceleration during β-adrenergic stimulation, interacting synergistically with the voltage clock to increase sinus rate.
