[Effects of 50 Hz sinusoidal magnetic field on Ca2+ release channel ryanodine receptor of sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles]

Abstract

Objective: To investigate the effects of sinusoidal magnetic field on isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) calcium release channel (RyR1) function.

Methods: With the Ca2+ dynamic spectrum and isotope labeled methods, the Ca2+ release and [(3)H]-Ryanodine binding, the initial rates of NADH oxidation and the production of superoxide of SR exposed to 50 Hz sinusoidal magnetic field (MF) were investigated respectively.

Results: 0.4 mT, 50 Hz sinusoidal MF exposure for 30 min increased SR Ca2+ release initial rate about 35% from (10.82 +/- 0.89) pmol.mg(-1) pro.s(-1) to (14.69 +/- 1.21) pmol.mg(-1) pro.s(-1); and the [(3)H]-Ryanodine binding by about 15% from (2.13 +/- 0.05) pmol/mg pro to (2.45 +/- 0.07) pmol/mg pro, which regulated by 1 mmol/L NADH with 1 mmol/L NAD+. Meanwhile MF upregulated the rate of NADH oxidation by about 22% from (0.88 +/- 0.11) x 10(-4) FI/s to (1.07 +/- 0.13) x 10(-4) FI/s and upregulated the production of superoxide by about 32% from (0.99 +/- 0.09) x 10(-5) FI/s to (1.31 +/- 0.06) x 10(-5) FI/s.

Conclusion: 0.4 mT sinusoidal MF increases the activity of RyR1 within the low redox potential environment, and promotes NADH oxidase activity and superoxide production.
