In Langendorff perfused rat hearts, we found that ischemia-reperfusion-induced ventricular tachyarrhythmia reverted to normal sinus rhythm after the treatment with naloxone (3 similar to 10 mu M). The method of voltage and current clamp were used to study the underlying mechanism of its antiarrhythmic activity on isolated cardiac myocytes. In isolated rat ventricular and in guinea-pig and human atrial myocytes, naloxone prolonged the action potential duration reversibly. In rat ventricular myocytes, naloxone (1 similar to 30 mu M) inhibited sodium current (I-Na), transient outward potassium current (I-to ), and calcium current (I-Ca). On the contrary, the addition of naloxone significantly increased inward rectifier potassium current (I-Kl) For the effect on I-Na, naloxone did not shift the inactivation curve of I-Na but retarded the I-Na recovery rate from inactivation state. Naloxone suppressed I -to with a significant left-shift of the inactivation curve, however, the time course of I-to recovery from inactivation was not affected. In guinea pig atrial myocytes, naloxone ( 10 mu M) decreased the delayed rectifier K+ current (I-K) These results show that naloxone exert various extent of inhibition on I-Na, I-to, I-K and I-Ca. The prolongation of cardiac action potential is related to the inhibition of I - to and I-K. The antiarrhythmic activity of naloxone is more closely related to the inhibition of Na+ and K+ currents rather than the blockade of myocardial opioid receptors. |
