Effects of temperature on intracellular [Ca2+] in trout atrial myocytes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Acute temperature change can be cardioplegic to mammals, yet certain ectotherms maintain their cardiac scope over a wide temperature range. To better understand the acute effects of temperature on the ectothermic heart, we investigated the stimulus-induced change in intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)](i); cytosolic Ca(2+) transient) in isolated rainbow trout myocytes at 7 degrees C, 14 degrees C and 21 degrees C. Myocytes were voltage-clamped and loaded with Fura-2 to measure the L-type Ca(2+) channel current (I(Ca)) and [Ca(2+)](i) during physiological action potential (AP) pulses at frequencies that correspond to trout heart rates in vivo at 7 degrees C, 14 degrees C and 21 degrees C. Additionally, [Ca(2+)](i) and I(Ca) were examined with square (SQ) pulses at slow (0.2 Hz) and physiologically relevant contraction frequencies. The amplitude of [Ca(2+)](i) decreased with increasing temperature for both SQ and AP pulses, which may contribute to the well-known negative inotropic effect of warm temperature on contractile strength in trout hearts. With SQ pulses, [Ca(2+)](i) decreased from 474+/-53 nmol l(-1) at 7 degrees C to 198+/-21 nmol l(-1) at 21 degrees C, while the decrease in [Ca(2+)](i) with AP pulses was from 234+/-49 nmol l(-1) to 79+/-12 nmol l(-1), respectively. Sarcolemmal Ca(2+) influx was increased slightly at cold temperatures with AP pulses (charge transfer was 0.27+/-0.04 pC pF(-1), 0.19+/-0.03 pC pF(-1) and 0.13+/-0.03 pC pF(-1) at 7 degrees C, 14 degrees C and 21 degrees C, respectively). At all temperatures, cells were better able to maintain diastolic Ca(2+) levels at physiological frequencies with AP pulses compared with 500 ms SQ pulses. We suggest that temperature-dependent modulation of the AP is important for cellular Ca(2+) regulation during temperature and frequency change in rainbow trout heart.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
