Abnormal intracellular calcium handling in myocardium from patients with end-stage heart failure

JK Gwathmey, L Copelas, R MacKinnon, FJ Schoen, MD Feldman, W Grossman and JP Morgan

Intracellular Ca2+ release and reuptake are essential for contraction and relaxation of normal heart muscle. Intracellular Ca2+ transients were recorded with aequorin during isometric contraction of myocardium from patients with end-stage heart failure. In contrast to controls, contractions and Ca2+ transients of muscles from failing hearts were markedly prolonged, and the Ca2+ transients exhibited 2 distinct components. Muscles from failing hearts showed a diminished capacity to restore low resting Ca2+ levels during diastole. These experiments provide the first direct evidence from actively contracting human myocardium that intracellular Ca2+ handling is abnormal and may cause systolic and diastolic dysfunction in heart failure.
