Popis: Objective: To investigate the electrophysiology effects and mechanism of iron overload on the slow response autorhythmic cells in the left ventricular outflow tract of guinea pigs. Methods: Standard microelectrode cell recording techniques were adopted to observe the electrophysiological effects of different concentrations of Fe2+ (100 μmol/L, 200 μmol/L) on the left ventricular outflow tract autorhythmic cells. Heart tissues were perfused with FeSO4 (200 μmol/L) combing with CaC12 (4.2 mmol/L), Verapamil, (1 μmol/L), and nickel chloride (200μmol/L) respectively to observe the influences of these contents on electrophysiology of FeSO4 (200 μmol/L) on the left ventricular outflow tract autorhythmic cells. Results: Fe2+ at both 100 μmol/L and 200 μmol/L could change the electrophysiological parameters of the slow response autorhythmic cells of the left ventricular outflow tract in a concentration-dependent manner resulting into decrease in Vmax, APA and MDP, slower RPF and VDD, and prolonged APD50 and APD90 (P all
