Abstract
Cardiac fibroblasts are an essential component of cardiac tissue. These cells not only produce the extracellular matrix, but also are electrically and mechanically coupled with cardiomyocytes. In this way, fibroblasts can influence the electrical activity of cardiomyocytes. Cardiac fibroblasts cannot generate action potentials, but their membrane potential is controlled by mechanical stretch or compression of the surrounding myocardium which in turn affects their interaction with myocytes and the way myocytes respond to mechanical stress. This review discusses the electrical properties of cardiac fibroblasts, the present evidence of fibroblast-myocyte coupling and the way in which these cells respond to mechanical stress. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Myocyte-Fibroblast Signalling in Myocardium."

Abstract
In giant fibroblastic L cells, penetration of a conventional microelectrode brought about marked decreases in the membrane potential and input resistance measured with a patch electrode under tight-seal whole-cell configuration, and repeated hyperpolarizations were often observed upon penetration. Therefore, the question arose whether such leakage artifact is a causal factor for generation of the membrane potential oscillation even in giant L cells. During whole-cell recordings, however, regular potential oscillations were observed in the cells that had not been impaled with a conventional microelectrode, as far as the Ca2+ buffer was not strong in the pipette solution. Oscillatory changes in the intracellular potential were detected by extracellular recordings with a tight-seal patch electrode in the cell-attached configuration. Thus, the potential oscillation occurs even in the absence of penetration-induced leakage or without rupture of the patch membrane. Withdrawal of a micropipette from one cell was often found to induce marked cell damage and elicit oscillatory hyperpolarizations in a neighboring cell with a certain time lag. The longer the distance between the injured and recorded cells, the greater was the time lag. Application of the cell lysate on the cell surface also gave rise to oscillatory hyperpolarizations. After repeated applications of the lysate, the membrane became unresponsive (desensitized), suggesting the involvement of receptors for the lysate factor. The lysates of different cell species (mouse lymphoma L5178Y cells or human epithelial Intestine 407 cells) produced similar effects. The effective component was heat stable and distinct from ATP. Lysate-induced hyperpolarizations were inhibited by deprivation of extracellular Ca2+ and by application of a Ca2+ channel blocker (nifedipine) or a K+ channel blocker (quinine) in the same manner as spontaneous oscillatory hyperpolarizations. It is concluded that the mouse fibroblast exhibits membrane potential oscillations, when the cell was activated, presumably via receptor systems, by some diffusible factors released from damaged cells.

Abstract
Patch-clamp experiments in the whole-cell mode have been performed in Swiss 3T3 mouse fibroblasts. Depolarizations from negative holding potential (Vh less than -60 mV) gave rise to a rapidly activating, fully inactivating, inward current of few tenths of nA in physiological saline at 35 degrees C. The current persisted when external Na+ was replaced by impermeant TMA+ and disappeared in 0 Ca2+, 1 mM EGTA. The current was reversible blocked by Co2+ and it was slightly reduced when external Ca2+ was substituted by Ba2+. Finally its reversal potential changed with Nernstian slope with increasing external Ca2+ concentrations. It is concluded that these cells possess a voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel.

Abstract
The method of electron spin resonance spectroscopy of spin probes was used to determine the lowest concentrations of the local anaesthetics dibucaine and tetracaine exerting perturbations on synaptosome membranes. The perturbation depends on the temperature and the membrane depth, as well as on the concentration and the structure of the anaesthetics. Using spin labelled stearic acid at the 5th carbon position a negligible effect of the anaesthetics on the order parameter was found in the membrane both at 1 degree and 22 degrees, within the buffer concentration 0.01-10 mmol/l, but at 37 degrees and concentrations higher than 0.1 mmol/l the disordering effect was significant and of comparable efficiency for dibucaine and tetracaine. Employing stearic acid labelled at the 16th carbon position, disordering of the hydrocarbon core of the membrane caused by tetracaine or dibucaine was detected at 1 degree and 22 degrees, as well as at 37 degrees. The disordering effect occurred at buffer concentrations higher than 0.01 mmol/l for dibucaine, and higher than 0.1 mmol/l for tetracaine. At equal anaesthetic membrane concentrations and at the 16th carbon membrane depth, dibucaine was approximately twice as effective as tetracaine in perturbing synaptosomes. Tetracaine induced nonlamellar phases in the rat brain lipid membrane as detected by 31P NMR spectroscopy. The dynamic and structural perturbation effects of the local anaesthetics was found in that concentration range at which the anaesthetics influence various activities of biological membranes.

Abstract
The oscillation of membrane potential in fibroblastic L cells is known to result from periodic stimulation of Ca2+-activated K+ channels due to the oscillatory increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. These repeated hyperpolarizations were inhibited by putative calmodulin antagonists, trifluoperazine (TFP), N-(6-aminohexyl)-5-chloro-1-naphthalenesulfonamide (W-7) and promethazine (PMZ), and the concentrations required for half-maximal inhibition were 25, 30 and 300 microM, respectively. These doses were lower than those for reducing the membrane resistance due to nonspecific cell damages. Another calmodulin antagonist, chlorpromazine (CPZ), was also effective, but CPZ-sulfoxide was not. Intracellular pressure injections of calmodulin-interacting divalent cations, Ca2+, Sr2+, Mn2+ and Ni2+, elicited slow hyperpolarizations, whereas Mg2+ and Ba2+, which are known to be essentially inert for calmodulin, failed to evoke any responses. The injection of purified calmodulin also brought about a similar hyperpolarization. Quinine, an inhibitor of Ca2+-activated K+ channels, abolished both Ca2+- and calmodulin-induced hyperpolarizations. TFP prevented Ca2+-induced hyperpolarizations. The TFP effect was partially reversed by the calmodulin injection. It is concluded that calmodulin is involved in the operation of Ca2+-activated K+ channels in fibroblasts.

Abstract
Using Ca2+- and K+-selective microelectrodes, the cytosolic free Ca2+ and K+ concentrations were measured in mouse fibroblastic L cells. When the extracellular Ca2+ concentration exceeded several micromoles, spontaneous oscillations of the intracellular free Ca2+ concentration were observed in the submicromolar ranges. During the Ca2+ oscillations, the membrane potential was found to oscillate concomitantly. The peak of cyclic increases in the free Ca2+ level coincided in time with the peak of periodic hyperpolarizations. Both oscillations were abolished by reducing the extracellular Ca2+ concentration down to 10(-7) M or by applying a Ca2+ channel blocker, nifedipine (50 microM). In the presence of 0.5 mM quinine, an inhibitor of Ca2+-activated K+ channel, sizable Ca2+ oscillations still persisted, while the potential oscillations were markedly suppressed. Oscillations of the intracellular K+ concentration between about 145 and 140 mM were often associated with the potential oscillations. The minimum phase of the K+ concentration was always 5 to 6 sec behind the peak hyperpolarization. Thus, it is concluded that the oscillation of membrane potential results from oscillatory increases in the intracellular Ca2+ level, which, in turn, periodically stimulate Ca2+-activated K+ channels.

Abstract
Epithelial tissues are ubiquitous in metazoan organisms, performing many different functions and assuming a variety of shapes. This diversity of form and function is ultimately dependent on the behavior of the cells within the epithelia. For example, it is intercellular adhesion and the control of paracellular permeability by cell junctions that permit epithelia to form barriers and act as selective filters. It is cellular polarity that enables absorptive epithelia to extract materials from a particular side of the sheet; it is the collective contributions of cell proliferation, cellular translocation, and changes in cell shape that sculpt epithelia from simple sheets into folds, pouches and tubes. Clearly, a complete understanding of epithelial morphogenesis is inextricably entwined with questions of cell behavior in general, such as how any cell adheres, moves, and maintains its shape. The study of epithelial systems has lent considerable insight into these problems and should continue to do so, just as examination of the behavior and architecture of nonepithelial cells will undoubtedly clarify many aspects of the cellular events underlying epithelial morphogenesis. Although the action of individual cells ultimately shapes epithelial, coordination of that action is necessary for the development of a coherent tissue. Attention must therefore be given to integrative mechanisms in epithelial morphogenesis. How do the many cells in an epithelial sheet act in virtual unison during folding? What defines the boundaries of epithelial invaginations? How does an individual cell detect its position within, and thereby know its role in the morphogenesis of, the epithelial whole of which it is a part? At the most elementary level, epithelial cells interact via their physical attachments to one other. Even such rudimentary communication affects cell shape, movement, and possibly proliferation and also plays a part in the maintenance of epithelial polarity. Additional signals pass among epithelial cells by a number of other mechanisms as well, most notably electrical coupling. However, many questions remain regarding the quality and quantity of what is communicated between epithelial cells. Accordingly, elucidating the means by which supracellular order is maintained in epithelial tissues may still be regarded as the major problem in the study of epithelial morphogenesis.

Abstract
Electrophysiological properties of a cloned monkey kidney cell line, JTC-12, were studied. The mean resting potential and input resistance were -15.3 mV and 78 M omega, respectively. Spontaneous hyperpolarizations with increased membrane conductance were observed. Similar hyperpolarization could be elicited by mechanical and electrical stimulations. The mean reversal potential of these hyperpolarizations was -72.7 mV. Hyperpolarization could be also elicited in a chloride-free solution. These data indicate that: JTC-12 cells exhibit spontaneous and induced hyperpolarizations, and occurrence of hyperpolarization is related to an increase in membrane permeability to potassium ions.

Abstract
L cells (a mouse fibroblast cell line) and macrophages have been reported to exhibit slow oscillatory hyperpolarizations and relatively low membrane potentials, when measured with glass micro-electrodes. This paper describes the role of micro-electrode-induced leakage in these oscillations for L cells and a mouse macrophage cell line (P388D1). Both L cells and macrophages showed fast negative-going peak-shaped potential transients upon micro-electrode entry. This shows that the micro-electrode introduces a leakage conductance across the membrane. The peak values of these fast transients were less negative for L cells (-17 mV) than for macrophages (-39 mV), although their sustained resting membrane potentials were about equal (-13 mV). This indicates that the pre-impaled membrane potential of macrophages is more negative than that of L cells. Ionophoretic injection of Ca2+ into the P388D1 macrophages showed the existence of a Ca2+ -dependent hyperpolarizing conductance presumed to be involved in the oscillatory hyperpolarizations of L cells and macrophages. Cells increased in size by X-ray irradiation to reduce membrane input resistances were still found to be susceptible to micro-electrode-induced leakage. Impalement transients upon entry of a second electrode during a hyperpolarization evoked by a first electrode, were often step-shaped instead of peak-shaped due to the high membrane conductance associated with hyperpolarization. Since peak-shaped impalement transients were always seen with the first impalement both in oscillating and non-oscillating cells, oscillatory hyperpolarizations cannot be regarded as spontaneously occurring in the unperturbed cells but are induced by micro-electrode penetration. Since the hyperpolarizing response can be evoked by ionophoretic injection of Ca2+, and oscillatory as well as single hyperpolarizing responses are absent in a Ca2+ -free medium, it is concluded that the Ca2+ needed intracellularly to activate the hyperpolarizing responses enters the cell via the leakage pathway introduced by the measuring electrode.

Abstract
Mouse fibroblastic L cells responded to exogenous ATP (greater than or equal to 0.2 mM) with a transient hyperpolarization due to increased membrane permeability to K+. By contrast, intracellular injection of ATP (up to about 3 mM) produced no noticeable effects on the membrane potential. The effects of a non-hydrolysable analogue of ATP (AMP-PNP) were similar to those of ATP. After successive applications of ATP, the cell membrane became virtually unresponsive (desensitized). Extracellular ADP was also effective, but AMP or adenosine was not. Antazoline suppressed the ATP response. Thus, exogenous ATP and ADP appear to stimulate P2- purinoceptors . Similar responses to ATP (or ADP) were also observed in human normal diploid fibroblasts (Flow 1000 line).

Abstract
Cytochalasin B (CB) and deoxyglucose alter the electrical responses of the plasma membrane of rat peritoneal macrophages to the presence of phagocytosable latex particles. With both agents, instead of the initial hyperpolarization we previously observed, there is a depolarization. In the case of cytochalasin B (CB) this is followed by a gradual repolarization to the initial resting level, whereas with deoxyglucose the membrane eventually does hyperpolarize. One possible interpretation is that plasma membrane receptors mediate the depolarization in response to phagocytosable particles, but that normally this is masked by other changes effected here by the agents we used.

Abstract
We have demonstrated previously that the steroidogenic activity of ACTH on cultured adrenal tumor cells is associated with cell rounding and a rearrangement of microfilaments. Cytochalasin B (CB) also induces cell rounding, but changes the conformation of microfilaments and severely inhibits steroidogenesis. ACTH and CB may have different modes of action on the contractile machinery which are related to their opposing actions on steroidogenesis. To investigate this possibility further, we have examined the reversibility of the morphological and functional effects of these agents. Cultures were incubated for 1 hr, with and without ACTH (10 microU/ml of media), or with CB (50 micrograms/ml), or with both agents simultaneously. After a media wash, the cultures were incubated for 1 hr, with and without ACTH. The steroid production of the cells during pre- and post-washout incubations was determined, and some cultures were fixed for electron microscopy at the end of both incubation periods. The three- to ten-fold increases in steroidogenic activity of ACTH-stimulated cells declined during recovery incubations, but remained well above basal values. These cells nearly reflattened and began to regain stress fibers which had been 'pulled apart'. The 'washed out' ACTH-stimulated cells were often refractory to restimulation. Cells recovering from CB also reflattened. Masses of filamentous felt induced by the drug disappeared from the cytoplasm, lost microvilli reappeared and stress fibers reformed. The 20-50% inhibition of basal steroidogenesis by CB was completely reversed. When ex-CB-treated cells were incubated with ACTH, their morphology and steroid production were typical of acutely stimulated cells. The recovery behavior of cells incubated with ACTH and CB simultaneously reflected the observation that there were cell-specific responses to one agent or the other during initial incubations. The persistence of heightened steroidogenic activity following a washout of ACTH and the rapid reversal of the effects of CB strongly support the concept that regulated actomyosin interactions are an integral part of the steroidogenic process.

Abstract
1. In fibroblastic L cells, spontaneously repeated hyperpolarizing responses (oscillation of membrane potential) and hyperpolarizing responses evoked by electrical stimuli were suppressed by the external application of a K(+) channel blocker, nonyltriethylammonium (C(9)). This hydrophobic TEA-analogue also inhibited the hyperpolarization induced by intracellular Ca(2+) injection.2. Quinine or quinidine, known inhibitors of the Ca(2+)-activated K(+) channel of red cells, instantaneously inhibited these hyperpolarizations. Thus, these hyperpolarizations are likely to be caused by the operation of Ca(2+)-sensitive K(+) channels.3. Azide, which is known to inhibit the mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake in fibroblasts, and caffeine, dantrolene Na and oxalate, which affect the microsomal Ca(2+) transport, did not exert any effects upon the electrical potential profiles.4. On the other hand, Ca(2+) channel blockers (nifedipine, D 600 and Co(2+)) suppressed the hyperpolarizing responses, but not the hyperpolarizations produced by intracellular Ca(2+) injection, suggesting that the calcium ions responsible for the hyperpolarizing responses are mainly derived from outside the cell through Ca(2+) channels.5. Flavones of plant origin, which are known to inhibit Ca(2+)-ATPase, prolonged the duration of the hyperpolarizing phase of the oscillation or produced a sustained hyperpolarization.6. It is concluded that the Ca(2+) channel and the Ca(2+) pump play essential roles in the generation of the hyperpolarizing response and of the membrane potential oscillation in L cells, and that these hyperpolarizations are brought about by a transient elevation of cytosolic Ca(2+) level which, in turn, activates Ca(2+)-dependent K(+) channels.
