title: [The characteristics of the sodium currents across EGTA-modified calcium channels in the membrane of cultured rat cardiomyocytes].
abstract: In isolated, cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes sodium currents through calcium channels induced by lowering of extracellular calcium concentration 100 nmol/l have been investigated by whole-cell patch clamp technique. Such Na(+)-carried currents are modulated by classic Ca2+ agonists and antagonists. The potential-dependent characteristics of Na+ current are shifted at 20 mV in hyperpolarizing direction as compared to initial Ca(2+)-carried current. The inactivation decay of Na+ current through Ca2+ channels has the monoexponential behaviour. The possible action of extracellular Ca2+ lowering on Ca2+ channel selective filter and gating mechanisms is suggested.
