Abstract
Myogenesis is essential for skeletal muscle formation, growth, and regeneration and can be altered in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), an X-linked disorder due to the absence of the cytoskeletal protein dystrophin. Ion channels play a pivotal role in muscle differentiation and interact with the dystrophin complex. To investigate ion channel involvement in myogenesis in dystrophic settings, we performed electrophysiological characterization of two immortalized mouse cell lines, wild-type (WT) H2K-2B4 and the dystrophic (DYS) H2K-SF1, and measured gene expression of differentiation markers and ion channels. Inward and outward currents/density increased as differentiation progressed in both WT and DYS cells. However, day-11 DYS cells showed higher (27%) inward current density with an increased expression ratio of Scn5a/Scn4a and decreased (48%) barium-sensitive outward current compared to WT. Furthermore, day-11 DYS cells showed more positive resting membrane potential (+10 mV) and lower membrane capacitance (50%) compared to WT. DYS cells also had reduced Myog and Myf5 expression at days 6 and 11. Overall, ion channel profile and myogenesis appeared altered in DYS cells. These results are a first step in validating ion channels as potential drug targets to ameliorate muscle degeneration in DMD settings and as differentiation biomarkers in innovative platforms.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by the absence of the dystrophin protein and a properly functioning dystrophin-associated protein complex (DAPC) in muscle cells. DAPC components act as molecular scaffolds coordinating the assembly of various signaling molecules including ion channels. DMD shows a significant change in the functioning of the ion channels of the sarcolemma and intracellular organelles and, above all, the sarcoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria regulating ion homeostasis, which is necessary for the correct excitation and relaxation of muscles. This review is devoted to the analysis of current data on changes in the structure, functioning, and regulation of the activity of ion channels in striated muscles in DMD and their contribution to the disruption of muscle function and the development of pathology. We note the prospects of therapy based on targeting the channels of the sarcolemma and organelles for the correction and alleviation of pathology, and the problems that arise in the interpretation of data obtained on model dystrophin-deficient objects.

Abstract
Mutations in the gene encoding for the intracellular protein dystrophin cause severe forms of muscular dystrophy. These so-called dystrophinopathies are characterized by skeletal muscle weakness and degeneration. Dystrophin deficiency also gives rise to considerable complications in the heart, including cardiomyopathy development and arrhythmias. The current understanding of the pathomechanisms in the dystrophic heart is limited, but there is growing evidence that dysfunctional voltage-dependent ion channels in dystrophin-deficient cardiomyocytes play a significant role. Herein, we summarize the current knowledge about abnormalities in voltage-dependent sarcolemmal ion channel properties in the dystrophic heart, and discuss the potentially underlying mechanisms, as well as their pathophysiological relevance.

Abstract
Defining the cellular electrophysiological mechanisms for ventricular tachyarrhythmias is difficult, given the wide array of potential mechanisms, ranging from abnormal automaticity to various types of reentry and kk activity. The degree of difficulty is increased further by the fact that any particular mechanism may be influenced by the evolving ionic and anatomic environments associated with many forms of heart disease. Consequently, static measures of a single electrophysiological characteristic are unlikely to be useful in establishing mechanisms. Rather, the dynamics of the electrophysiological triggers and substrates that predispose to arrhythmia development need to be considered. Moreover, the dynamics need to be considered in the context of a system, one that displays certain predictable behaviors, but also one that may contain seemingly stochastic elements. It also is essential to recognize that even the predictable behaviors of this complex nonlinear system are subject to small changes in the state of the system at any given time. Here we briefly review some of the short-, medium-, and long-term alterations of the electrophysiological substrate that accompany myocardial disease and their potential impact on the initiation and maintenance of ventricular arrhythmias. We also provide examples of cases in which small changes in the electrophysiological substrate can result in rather large differences in arrhythmia outcome. These results suggest that an interrogation of cardiac electrical dynamics is required to provide a meaningful assessment of the immediate risk for arrhythmia development and for evaluating the effects of putative antiarrhythmic interventions.

Abstract
A distrofia muscular de Duchenne (DMD) em humanos é uma alteração neuromuscular hereditária, de caráter recessivo, ligada ao cromossomo X e causada pela ausência ou disfunção da distrofina. Clinicamente, caracteriza-se por grave alteração na musculatura esquelética, resultando em morte precoce do indivíduo acometido. Em cães da raça Golden Retriever, a mutação que leva à distrofia muscular ocorre espontaneamente e a extensa homologia entre a patogênese da DMD e da distrofia muscular do Golden Retriever permite qualificar o cão como o principal substituto de humanos nos testes clínicos de novas terapias. O miocárdio deficiente em distrofina é mais vulnerável à sobrecarga de pressão e os pacientes com DMD podem desenvolver cardiomiopatia dilatada, hipertensão arterial e o eletrocardiograma pode se apresentar distintamente anormal. No presente estudo, foram avaliados exames eletrocardiográficos de 38 cães da raça Golden Retriever clinicamente sadios (20 animais de até 12 meses de idade e 18 animais entre 12 e 36 meses de idade), com a finalidade de se obter parâmetros para a padronização do eletrocardiograma nessa referida raça, o que futuramente poderá servir de referência na identificação de cães portadores ou afetados pela distrofia muscular. Os valores eletrocardiográficos obtidos encontraram-se dentro dos valores de normalidade e referência para as diferentes raças de cães; e as variáveis peso e idade alteraram significativamente a freqüência cardíaca e a amplitude do complexo QRS.

Abstract
A distrofia muscular de Duchenne (DMD) é uma alteração neuromuscular caracterizada por contínua necrose muscular e degeneração, com eventual fibrose e infiltração por tecido adiposo. O aumento progressivo da fibrose intersticial no músculo impede a migração das células miogênicas, necessárias para a formação muscular. O modelo canino constitui-se nas melhores fenocópias da doença em humanos, quando comparados com outros modelos animais com distrofia. O tratamento antifibrose de pacientes DMD, tendo como alvo os mediadores da citocina, TGF-beta, e o tratamento com antiinflamatórios, podem limitar a degeneração muscular e contribuir para a melhora do curso da doença. O presente estudo teve como objetivo observar os possíveis efeitos adversos na fisiologia renal, por meio de avaliação bioquímica sanguínea e da pressão arterial, verificando a viabilidade do uso do Losartan (um inibidor de TGF-beta) nos cães afetados pela distrofia muscular. Foram utilizados quatro cães adultos, sendo dois machos e duas fêmeas. Utilizou-se a dose de 50mg de Losartan, administrada via oral, uma vez ao dia. Os exames clínicos, bem como alterações na função renal, o nível do potássio sérico e a pressão arterial não evidenciaram reação adversa durante todo o período do experimento. O uso de Losartan, por um período de 9 semanas, mostrou-se como uma terapia segura para o tratamento antifibrótico em cães adultos, não afetando a função renal ou pressão arterial dos animais.

Abstract
Diabetic patients have a higher incidence of cardiac arrhythmias, including ventricular fibrillation and sudden death, and show important alterations in the electrocardiogram, most of these related to the repolarization. In myocytes isolated from diabetic hearts, the transient outward K+ current (Ito) is the repolarizing current that is mainly affected. Type 1 diabetes alters Ito at 3 levels: the recovery of inactivation, the responsiveness to physiologic regulators, and the functional expression of the channel. Diabetes slows down Ito recovery of inactivation because it triggers the switching from fast-recovering Kv4.x channels to the slow-recovering Kv1.4. Diabetic animals also have decreased responsiveness of Ito towards the sympathetic nervous system; thus, the diabetic heart develops a resistance to its physiologic regulator. Finally, diabetes impairs support of various trophic factors required for the functional expression of the channel and reduces Ito amplitude by decreasing the amount of Kv4.2 and Kv4.3 proteins.

Abstract
The effect of catecholamine depletion (induced by prior treatment with reserpine) was studied in Wistar rat ventricular myocytes using whole cell voltage-clamp methods. Two calcium-independent outward currents, the transient outward potassium current (I(to)) and the sustained outward potassium current (I(sus)), were measured. Reserpine treatment decreased tissue norepinephrine content by 97%. Action potential duration in the isolated perfused heart was significantly increased in reserpine-treated hearts. In isolated ventricular myocytes, I(to) density was decreased by 49% in reserpine-treated rats. This treatment had no effect on I(sus). The I(to) steady-state inactivation-voltage relationship and recovery from inactivation remained unchanged, whereas the conductance-voltage activation curve for reserpine-treated rats was significantly shifted (6.7 mV) toward negative potentials. The incubation of myocytes with 10 microM norepinephrine for 7-10 h restored I(to), an effect that was abolished by the presence of actinomycin D. Norepinephrine (0.5 microM) had no effect on I(to). However, in the presence of both 0.5 microM norepinephrine and neuropeptide Y (0.1 microM), I(to) density was restored to its control value. These results suggest that the sympathetic nervous system is involved in I(to) regulation. Sympathetic norepinephrine depletion decreased the number of functional channels via an effect on the alpha-adrenergic cascade and norepinephrine is able to restore expression of I(to) channels.

Abstract
This article examines specific electrocardiographic (ECG) and electrophysiological features of ventricular repolarization in rats and mice, and the role of depolarization-activated potassium currents in mediating the unique features of ECG recordings in these rodents. This article describes the currents that underlie ventricular repolarization in these rodents, identifies terminology that appropriately describes the unique features of murine ECG recordings, and correlates these unique findings with selected human ECG ventricular repolarization abnormalities. The absence of a distinct isoelectric interval between the QRS complex and the T wave, accompanied by a relatively short QT interval, are common features of ECG recordings in mice and rats, but not in ECGs in guinea pigs. The murine ECG morphology is apparently attributable to the presence of large outward K+ currents that dominate the early phase of ventricular repolarization. In rats and mice, the predominant current underlying the early phase of repolarization appears to be the rapidly activating and inactivating 4-aminopyridine-sensitive transient outward current (ie, I(to)). Importantly, the density of I(to) in rats and mice is high, whereas this current is not evident in the ventricular myocytes of guinea pigs. The high density of I(to) appears to underlie the prominent J wave or downsloping ST-segment elevation seen in rats and mice, whereas the ST-segment is isoelectric in guinea pigs. The unusual J wave and ST-segment pattern in murine ECGs, however, does bear some resemblance to ECG features observed in humans with Brugada syndrome, and with hypothermia and ischemia. These patterns in rats and mice might, therefore, serve as an experimental model for the idiopathic J wave.

Abstract
The mechanism for the reduction of the transient outward K+ current (Ito) in diseased myocardium is unknown. To identify potential mechanisms, the reduction of Ito and its subsequent restoration by norepinephrine (NE) were studied in cultured canine epicardial myocytes. After myocytes were cultured for 9 days (day 9), Ito density was decreased compared with density on the day of isolation (day 0) (3.2 +/- 0.4 vs. 10.4 +/- 0.4 pA/pF; mean +/- SE). The time constant of current decay (taudecay) was increased, the time course of recovery from inactivation was prolonged, and the half-inactivation voltage (V1/2) was shifted to less negative potentials. Exposure of myocytes on day 8 to 1 microM NE or isoproterenol (Iso) for 1 h had no acute effect on Ito but restored Ito density to 7.6 +/- 1.2 or 9.7 +/- 2.3 pA/pF, respectively, on day 9. Recovery from inactivation and taudecay remained slowed, and V1/2 remained shifted to less negative potentials. The effects of NE and Iso were blocked by actinomycin D and were not mimicked by phenylephrine or phorbol ester. A-23187 (1 microM) also restored Ito. Thus beta-adrenergic agonists restored normal Ito density, but not normal Ito kinetics, in cultured epicardial myocytes, possibly via increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A colony of inbred German shepherd dogs with inherited ventricular arrhythmias has been established. METHODS AND RESULTS The inward rectifier (IK1), the slow delayed rectifier (IKs), and the transient outward current (I(to)) were recorded from epicardial myocytes, and Ito was recorded from Purkinje myocytes isolated from the left ventricles of dogs mildly or severely affected with arrhythmias, and unaffected relatives. There were no differences between unaffected and severely affected dogs in the densities of either IK1 or IKs. Peak Ito density at +40 mV was reduced by 49% in epicardial myocytes from severely affected dogs. I(to) density was also reduced in a subset of Purkinje myocytes. Boltzmann analysis of steady-state inactivation showed no differences between groups in slope factor. V1/2, the half-inactivation voltage, was shifted by +6.2 mV in epicardial cells from severely affected versus unaffected dogs. In addition, the time constant for I(to) decay was reduced in mildly and severely affected dogs compared to unaffected dogs. CONCLUSION Altered density and inactivation of I(to) are associated with the presence of severe ventricular arrhythmias in inbred dogs at risk for sudden death.

Abstract
1. The transient outward potassium current (Ito) is reduced in canine epicardial myocytes during the acute stage of infection with Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas' disease). Sympathetic nerve terminals are also destroyed during the acute stage of this disease. To test whether the reduction of Ito is related to the absence of sympathetic innervation, acutely infected isolated epicardial myocytes were exposed in vitro to the sympathetic neurotransmitter noradrenaline (NA) and the effects of NA exposure on Ito were determined. 2. Continuous exposure to NA (1.0 microM) for 0-6 h had no effect on Ito density, whereas exposure to NA for 24 h significantly increased Ito density. Ito was also restored 24 h after a 1 h exposure to NA. Cell capacitance was not significantly affected by NA. 3. The alpha1-adrenergic receptor antagonist prazosin (0.1 microM) blocked the effects of NA on Ito, but the beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist propranolol (20 microM) did not. The beta-adrenergic receptor agonist isoprenaline (1 microM) had no effect on Ito. 4. Restoration of Ito by NA was prevented by pretreatment with neomycin (100 microM), a phospholipase C inhibitor, but not by pretreatment with 100-400 ng ml(-1) pertussis toxin (PTX). 5. The protein kinase C (PKC) activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (0.1 microM) mimicked the effect of NA on Ito, whereas the inactive analogue 4alpha-phorbol (20 microM) had no effect on Ito. Pretreatment with bisindolylmaleimide (0.1 microM), a specific PKC inhibitor, completely blocked the effect of NA on Ito. 6. Thus, NA restores Ito in chagasic canine epicardial myocytes. The induction of Ito by NA appears to result from alpha1-adrenergic stimulation of PKC via a PTX-insensitive signalling cascade. These results suggest that the reduction of Ito in chagasic myocytes during the acute stage of Chagas' disease may reflect the lack of the trophic effects of sympathetic innervation.
