TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Synchronization of Ca2+ oscillations: a coupled oscillator-based mechanism in smooth muscle

Entrained oscillations in Ca 2+ underlie many biological pacemaking phe-nomena. In this article, we review a long-range signaling mechanism in smooth muscle that results in global outcomes of local interactions. Our results are derived from studies of the following: (a) slow-wave depolariza-tions that underlie rhythmic contractions of gastric smooth muscle; | MINIREVIEW Synchronization of Ca2 oscillations a coupled oscillator-based mechanism in smooth muscle Mohammad S.

In this article we review a long-range signaling mechanism in smooth muscle that results in global outcomes of local interactions. Our results are derived from studies of the following a slow-wave depolarizations that underlie rhythmic contractions of gastric smooth muscle and b membrane depolarizations that drive rhythmic contractions of lymphatic smooth muscle. The main feature of this signaling mechanism is a coupled oscillator-based synchronization of Ca2 oscillations across cells that drives membrane potential changes and causes coordinated contractions. The key elements of this mechanism are as follows a the Ca2 releaserefill cycle of endoplasmic reticulum Ca2 stores b Ca2 -dependent modulation of membrane currents c voltage-dependent modulation of Ca2 store release and d cell-cell coupling through gap junctions or other mechanisms. In this mechanism Ca2 stores alter the frequency of adjacent stores through voltage-dependent modulation of store release. This electrochemical coupling is many orders of magnitude stronger than the coupling through diffusion of Ca2 or inositol 1 4 5-trisphosphate and thus provides an
