Effects of seasonal acclimatization on thermal tolerance of inward currents in roach (Rutilus rutilus) cardiac myocytes.
ABSTRACT To test the hypothesis of temperature-dependent deterioration of electrical excitability (TDEE) (Vornanen, J Exp Biol 219:1941-1952, 2016), the role of sodium (I Na) and calcium (I Ca) currents in heat tolerance of cardiac excitability was examined in a eurythermic fish, the roach (Rutilus rutilus). Densities of cardiac I Ca and I Na and their acute heat tolerance were measured ... Read more

Effects of seasonal acclimatization on action potentials and sarcolemmal K+ currents in roach (Rutilus rutilus) cardiac myocytes
Temperature sensitivity of electrical excitability is a potential limiting factor for high temperature tolerance of ectotherms. The present study examines whether heat resistance of electrical excitability of cardiac myocytes is modified by seasonal thermal acclimatization in roach (_Rutilus rutilus_), a eurythermal teleost species. To this end, temperature dependencies of ventricular action potentials (APs), and atrial and ventricular K+ currents were ... Read more

To test the hypothesis of temperature-dependent deterioration of electrical excitability (TDEE) (Vornanen, J Exp Biol 219:1941–1952, 2016), the role of sodium (_I_ Na) and calcium (_I_ Ca) currents in heat tolerance of cardiac excitability was examined in a eurythermic fish, the roach (_Rutilus rutilus_). Densities of cardiac _I_ Ca and _I_ Na and their acute heat tolerance were measured in ... Read more

Electrical excitability of roach (Rutilus rutilus) ventricular myocytes: effects of extracellular K+, temperature, and pacing frequency
Exercise, capture, and handling stress in fish can elevate extracellular K+ concentration ([K+]o) with potential impact on heart function in a temperature- and frequency-dependent manner. To this end, the effects of [K+]o on the excitability of ventricular myocytes of winter-acclimatized roach (_Rutilus rutilus_) (4 ± 0.5°C) were examined at different test temperatures and varying pacing rates. Frequencies corresponding to in ... Read more
