BACKGROUND: Loss of rate-dependent action potential (AP) duration (APD) adaptation is a characteristic feature of atrial tachycardia-induced remodeling (ATR). ATR causes sarcolemmal ion-channel remodeling (ICR) and changes in Ca(2+)-handling. The present studies were designed to quantify Ca(2+)-handling changes and then to apply a mathematical AP model to assess the contributions of Ca(2+)-handling abnormalities and ICR to loss of APD rate-adaptation.
METHODS: Indo-1 fluorescence was used to measure intracellular Ca(2)-transients and whole-cell patch-clamp to record APs in atrial myocytes from control dogs and dogs subjected to atrial pacing at 400/min for 6 weeks. A previously developed ionic model of the canine atrial AP was modified to reproduce measured Ca(2+)-transients of control and ATR myocytes.
RESULTS: In control, APD to 95% repolarization (APD(95)) decreased by 91 ms experimentally and by 88 ms in the model over the 1-6 Hz range. In ATR myocytes, APD(95) failed to decrease over the 1-6 Hz range. Ca(2+)-handling abnormalities in ATR myocytes included slowed upstroke, decreased amplitude and strong single-beat post-rest potentiation. Unaltered Ca(2+)-handling properties included caffeine-releasable Ca(2+)-stores and Ca(2+)-transient relaxation before and after exposure to the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA) inhibitor cyclopiazonic acid (CPA). Including ICR alone in the model accounted for loss of APD(50) rate-adaptation; however, KR alone reduced APD(95) rate-adaptation by only 19% to 71 ms. When both ICR and Ca(2+)-handling changes were incorporated, APD(95) rate-adaptation decreased to 6 ms, accounting for experimental observations.
CONCLUSION: ICR alone does not fully account for loss of APD rate-adaptation with atrial remodeling: Ca(2+)-handling changes appear to contribute to this clinically significant phenomenon.
