The electrophysiological effects of ionophore X-537A on cardiac purkinje fibres

J M Gelles. Experientia. 1976.

Abstract

Using classical microelectrode techniques in canine cardiac Purkinje fibres, calcium ionophore X-537A was shown to shorten the action potential, hyperpolarizing the membrane and lowering the plateau, suggesting that intracellular calcium controls membrane permeability to potassium in this preparation.
