AbstractBackground: Preconditioning with remifentanil confers cardioprotection. Since Ca2+ overload is a precipitating factor of injury, we determined the effects of remefentanil on intracellular Ca2+ ([Ca2+]i) and its transients induced by electrical stimulation and caffeine, which reflects Ca2+ handling by Ca2+ handling proteins, in rat ventricular myocytes. Methods: Freshly isolated adult male Sprague-Dawley rat myocytes were loaded with Fura-2/AM and [Ca]i was determined by spectrofluorometry. Remifentanil at 0.1-1000 μg/L was administered. Ten minutes after administration, either 0.2 Hz electrical stimulation was applied or 10 mmol/L caffeine was added. The [Ca2+]i, and the amplitude, time resting and 50% decay (t50) of both transients induced by electrical stimulation (E[Ca2+]i) and caffeine (C[Ca2+]i) were determined. Results: Remifentanil (0.1-1000.0 μg/L) decreased the [Ca2+]i in a dose-dependent manner. It also decreased the amplitude of both transients dose-dependently. Furthermore, it increased the time to peak and t50 of both transients dose-dependently. Conclusion: Remifentanil reduced the [Ca2+]i and suppressed the transients induced by electrical stimulation and caffeine in rat ventricular myocytes.
