To determine the effect of voltage-independent alterations of L-type Ca2+current (ICa) on the sarcoplasmic reticular (SR) Ca2+release in cardiac myocytes, we measuredICaand cytosolic Ca2+transients (Cai2+; intracellular Ca2+concentration) in voltage-clamped rat ventricular myocytes during1) an abrupt increase of extracellular [Ca2+] (Cao2+) or2) application of 1 μM FPL-64176, a Ca2+channel agonist, to selectively alterICain the absence of changes in SR Ca2+loading. On the first depolarization in higher Cao2+, peakICawas increased by 46 ± 6% (P< 0.001), but the increases in the maximal rate of rise of Cai2+(dCai2+/dtmax, wheretis time; an index of SR Ca2+release flux) and the Cai2+transient amplitude were not significant. Rapid exposure to FPL-64176 greatly slowed inactivation ofICa, increasing its time integral by 117 ± 8% (P< 0.001) without significantly increasing peakICa, dCai2+/dtmax, or amplitude of the corresponding Cai2+transient. Prolongation of exposure to higher Cao2+or FPL-64176 did not further increase peakICabut greatly increased dCai2+/dtmax, Cai2+transient amplitude, and the gain of Ca2+release (dCai2+/dtmax/ICa), evidently due to augmentation of the SR Ca2+loading. Also, the time to peak dCai2+/dtmaxwas significantly increased in the continuous presence of higher Cao2+(by 37 ± 5%,P< 0.001) or FPL-64176 (by 63 ± 5%,P< 0.002). Our experiments provide the first evidence of a marked disparity between an increased peakICaand the corresponding SR Ca2+release. We attribute this to saturation of the SR Ca2+release flux as predicted by local control theory. Prolongation of the SR Ca2+release flux, caused by combined actions of a largerICaand maximally augmented SR Ca2+loading, might reflect additional Ca2+release from corbular SR.
