To investigate mechanisms for the receptor-mediated inhibition of a rat cardiac K+ channel clone (KV1.2), we coexpressed KV1.2 with a subtype of endothelin receptors (ETA) in Xenopus oocytes. Effects of endothelin ETA receptor stimulation were mimicked by application of PMA (4-beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate; 0.1 microM) or intracellular injection of CaCl2 (estimated concentration of 1 microM). These effects diminished in the presence of staurosporine (1 microM) or EGTA (estimated concentration of 5 mM). These results suggest that both activation of protein kinase C and an increase in intracellular Ca2+ contribute to the suppression.
为了研究受体介导的对大鼠心脏钾通道克隆体(KV1.2)抑制作用的机制,我们在非洲爪蟾卵母细胞中将KV1.2与内皮素受体的一个亚型(ETA)共表达。应用佛波酯(4-β-佛波醇12-肉豆蔻酸酯13-乙酸酯;0.1微摩尔)或细胞内注射氯化钙(估计浓度为1微摩尔)可模拟内皮素ETA受体刺激的作用。在存在星形孢菌素(1微摩尔)或乙二醇双(2-氨基乙基醚)四乙酸(估计浓度为5毫摩尔)的情况下,这些作用减弱。这些结果表明,蛋白激酶C的激活和细胞内钙离子的增加均有助于这种抑制作用。
