摘 要:AIM:To explore the role of prostaglandin F2α(PGF2α) on pacemaker activity in interstitial cells of Cajal(ICC)from mouse small intestine. METHODS:In this study,effects of PGF2αin the cultured ICC cells were investigated with patch clamp technology combined with Ca 2+ image analysis. RESULTS:Externally applied PGF2α(10μmol/L)produced membrane depolarization in current-clamp mode and increased tonic inward pacemaker currents in voltage-clamp *** application of flufenamic acid(a non-selective cation channel inhibitor)or niflumic acid(aCl channel inhibitor)abolished the generation of pacemaker currents but only flufenamic acid inhibited the PGF2α-induced tonic inward *** addition,the tonic inward currents induced by PGF2αwere not inhibited by intracellular application of 5’-[-thio]diphosphate trilithium *** with Ca 2+ free solution, U-73122,an active phospholipase C inhibitor,and thapsigargin,a Ca 2+ -ATPase inhibitor in endoplasmic reticulum,abolished the generation of pacemaker currents and suppressed the PGF2α-induced tonic inward ***,chelerythrine or calphostin C,protein kinase C inhibitors,did not block the PGF2α-induced effects on pacemaker *** recording intracellular Ca 2+ ([Ca 2+ ]i)concentration using fluo-3/AM,PGF2α broadly increased the spontaneous[Ca 2+ ]i oscillations. CONCLUSION:These results suggest that PGF2αcan modulate pacemaker activity of ICC by acting non-selective action channels through phospholipase C-dependent pathway via[Ca2+]i regulation
