Monovalent cation (MC) current in cardiac and smooth muscle cells: regulation by intracellular Mg2+ and inhibition by polycations

Abstract: 1 Previously we have described a monovalent cation (MC) current that could be unmasked by the removal of extracellular divalent cations in vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) and cardiac myocytes, but speci®c and potent inhibitors of MC current have not been found, and the mechanism of its intracellular regulation remains obscure. 2 Here we show that small MC current is present in intact cells and could be dramatically upregulated during cell dialysis. MC current in dialyzed cells strongly resembled monovalent … Show more

“…We previously showed (10,31,48) that I MIC in cardiac myocytes is unmasked on cell dialysis with low internal Mg 2ϩ and that the channel is permeable to divalent and monovalent cations. Unless stated otherwise, the data presented are from pig cells.…”

“…We previously described (10,31,48) a Mg 2ϩ -inhibited cation (MIC) channel in cardiac myocytes that displays pharmacological and pore properties resembling those of TRPM6 and TRPM7 channels. Native TRPM7-like currents such as cardiac MIC are also referred to as magnesium-nucleotideregulated metal ion (MagNuM) currents (32).…”

“…In RBL and Jurkat T cells, the native correlate of TRPM7 was described and termed MagNuM (magnesium nucleotide-dependent metal cation) (14), or MIC (Mg 2ϩ -inhibited cation) (15,16). Similar currents have also been described in cardiac fibroblasts (17), smooth muscle cells (18), and brain microglia (19). The role of the kinase domain and phosphorylation in the ion channel function is controversial (for a recent review, see Ref.…”

“…These interactions include the block of inwardly rectifying K þ channels (Lopatin et al, 1994), cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (Lu & Ding, 1999;Guo & Lu, 2000), glutamate-activated receptor channels (Araneda et al, 1999), nicotinic acetylcholine receptor channels (Haghighi & Cooper, 1998), sodium channels (Huang & Moczydlowski, 2001) and voltage-gated calcium channels (Gomez & Hellstrand, 1995;. Many types of monovalent cation selective channels are also blocked by extracellular polycations like spermine in the mM range (Nilius, 2003;Zakharov et al, 2003). The molecular nature of channels carrying mI CAT is not yet completely defined, but they appear to be homo-or heteromultimers of transient receptor potential proteins (Lee et al, 2003).…”
