Fig. 4. L-type Ca2+ current in burbot ventricular myocytes
measured with 5 mmol l-1 EGTA in the pipette solution. (A)
Representative recording at 11°C with and without stimulation by
isoprenaline (10 µmol l-1). Values are means ± s.e.m.
from 6-12 cells at 4°C (B) and 11°C (C) under control conditions and
in the presence of 10 µmol l-1 isoprenaline (Iso).
*Density of ICa is increased significantly by
10 µmol l-1 isoprenaline (Student's t-test,
P<0.01). (D) Steady-state activation and inactivation
relationships ICa at 4°C only. (E) The
ICa window current (product of activation and inactivation
curves in D) at 4°C.
