Application

Strophanthidin was used to synthesize acetylstrophanthidin and the effect on neurotransmitter release from dog saphenous vein was studied.3

Biochem/physiol Actions

Strophanthidin is a cardiotonic steroid that elevates the activity of Na+/K+-ATPase in cardiac myocytes.1 It decreases the potassium content and raises the sodium content in rabbit renal cortex slices.2

Pump activity is a homeostatic mechanism that maintains ionic gradients. Here we examined whether the slow reduction in excitability induced by sodium-pump activity that has been seen in many neuronal types is also involved in neuronal coding. We took intracellular

Recent work has suggested that Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchange (NCX) and L-type Ca(2+) current (I(Ca)) are located predominantly in the t-tubules of cardiac ventricular myocytes, which therefore represent a microdomain for the regulation of intracellular Na(+) (Na(i)) and Ca(2+) (Ca(i)). The aim

Cardiac glycosides are characterized by a narrow therapeutic range with Ca2+-overload and arrhythmias occurring at higher concentrations. Data on cardiac glycosides in isolated failing human myocardium are scarce and the frequency-dependent actions and toxicity of Strophanthidin have not yet been

Previous studies demonstrated that the purified endogenous inhibitor (NCX(IF)) of the cardiac Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX1) has the capacity to modulate cardiac muscle contractility. Here, we tested the effects of purified NCX(IF) on arrhythmias induced by ouabain in the atria and

Cell-attached and whole cell recording techniques were used to study the effects of electrogenic sodium pump on the excitability of rat suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) neurons. Blocking the sodium pump with the cardiac steroid strophanthidin or zero K+ increased the spontaneous
