Abstract
The goal of research in our laboratory is to characterize the mechanisms responsible for ion transport across the cardiac sarcolemma using a multidisciplinary approach that combines biochemical and biophysical techniques. Cultured chick embryo heart cells are an ideal preparation for these studies because cells can be grown in one of several physiologically stable configurations ideally suited for a particular experimental technique (1): confluent mass cultures for biochemical measurements; small (~ 100 μm diameter) aggregates for voltage-clamp analysis; polystrands for isotope flux and ion-selective microelectrodes (ISME). In addition, cultured myocyte preparations are free from the physical (diffusional barriers) and biological (altered metabolic state) limitations associated with dissected cardiac muscle preparations and isolated heart cells, respectively.
