The objective of this study was to examine the effect of beta-adrenergic stimulation upon voltage- and Ca2+-induced inactivation of native cardiac L-type Ca2+ channels. Whole-cell currents were recorded from guinea-pig isolated ventricular myocytes. Total and voltage-dependent inactivation was separated by replacing extracellular Ca2+ with Mg2+. L-type Ca2+ channel behaviour was monitored with outward Ca2+ channel currents. First, the voltage dependence of inactivation was studied at fixed times (50 and 1000 ms) after activation. This showed that under control conditions Ca2+ contributed little to inactivation. In isoproterenol (isoprenaline), voltage- dependent inactivation was markedly reduced and Ca2+ contributed largely to total inactivation. Second, the time dependence of inactivation was studied at a fixed voltage (+10 mV). In control conditions the fast phase of inactivation (tau(f) similar to 15 ms) was reduced to the same extent by ryanodine(tau(f) similar to 30 ms) and the absence of Ca2+ (tau(f) similar to 30 ms) while the slow phase of inactivation (tau(s) similar to 70 ms) was reduced by ryanodine (tau(s) similar to 160 ms) and further reduced in the absence of Ca2+ (tau(s) similar to 300 ms). In isoproterenol, biphasic inactivation of Ca2+ currents (tau(f) similar to 4 ms, tau(s) similar to 60 ms) was replaced by a single slow (tau similar to 450 ms) phase of inactivation in the absence of Ca2+. It is concluded that, under control conditions Ca2+ channel current decay is largely dominated by rapid voltage-dependent inactivation, while in isoproterenol this is replaced by Ca2+-induced inactivation.
