After 282day ( H28) exposure (6 h/ d) to intermittent hypoxia, the density of Ito in the right, but not in the left, ventricular my2 ocytes was dramatically increased as compared with the normoxia control ( vs pa/ pf, P < 0105), while the Ito density of the myocytes isolated from both sides of ventricles in 422day2exposure group ( H42) did not show significant differ2 ence. Except for a more negative shift of the steady2state inactivation curves (half2inacti2 vation voltages : vs mv in the left ventricle and vs mv in the right ventricle) in the H42 group, all the other parame2 ters for activation, inactivation and recovery kinetics of Ito of each group remained un2 changed. It is speculated that the change in the current density of Ito may be responsible for the different hemodynamic responses of the ventricles to the early stage of hypoxia. The alteration in inactivation may participate in the cardioprotective effect of IHA.
