Patch clamp induced Ca2+ transient technology platform for triggering myocardial cell calcium release


 

Patch clamp induced Ca2+ transient technology platform 

for triggering myocardial cell calcium release 

 

1. Representative curve of calcium release:

 

Trigger calcium release by using patch clamp on the same myocardial cell.

 

They are the current induced by patch clamp (voltage clamp mode) and the triggered calcium release (Ca2+  transient).

 

2. Instruments:

Patch clamp and calcium release combination device.

 

3. Papers published on this platform:

Xie M, et al. Increased sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2a activity underlies the mechanism of the positive inotropic effect of ivabradine. Exp Physiol. 2020;  105(3):477-488.

4. Application fields:

This technology records the voltage or current of cells and observes their effect on calcium release, which is an important tool for studying excitation contraction coupling.
