  10. Common pool models are able to reconstruct cellular responses including APs, Ca2+ transients and the dependence of their morphology on underlying sarcolemmal currents and transporters/exchangers Common pool models are not able to reconstruct critical properties of CICR, specifically, graded Ca2+ release from the JSR However, given Item 1 does Item 2 really matter? Conclusions 4.The answer is YES, it matters a great deal. Item 1 will turn out not to be true

Physiol. 513(pt 2): 425-442 Incorporation of These Data Into Common Pool Models Leads to Instability Ca2+ Release Channels (RyR) When JSR Ca2+ release is all-or-none and inactivation of ICa,L is almost totally controlled by JSR Ca2+ release L-Type Ca2+ Channel Ca2+ ICa,L is either “on” or “off” 10 nm and APs become unstable

  19. Common-pool CICR models of the ventricular myocyte incorporating strong negative feedback control of ICa,L by JSR Ca2+ release are unstable. This is due to lack of graded release. The stochastic local-control CICR model describes experimentally-observed properties of CICR including voltage-dependence of EC-coupling gain and graded release, and reconstructs stable APs This is achieved at the cost of model complexity and computational load Can the stochastic local-control model be simplified in a way that does not sacrifice the ability to describe important molecular detail? Conclusions

  22. Coupled Gating Model of LCC-RyR Interactions Ca2+ Release Unit (CaRU) Model Critical Assumption 2: 1 LCC, 1 RyR and the diadic space • Timescale of [Ca2+]ss changes (~ 1mSec) • is fast wrt channel kinetics ( 100’s mSecs) • [Ca2+]ss is in rapid equilibrium • [Ca2+]ss is an algebraic function of V(t), [Ca2+]cytosol, [Ca2+]jsr, and LCC/RyR state • This implies the 3-state LCC and RyR models can be combined to form a 9-state CaRU model • Yij are states, where • i denotes states {C,O,I} of the LCC • j denotes states {C,O,I} of the RyR • Further rapid equilibrium approximations to obtain a 4-state (3 ODE) model • All transition rates are expressed mathematically as functions of parameters in the original model!

  24. Summary • New experimental data show that negative feedback coupling between JSR Ca2+ release and LCC current dominates LCC inactivation • When this coupling is incorporated into CICR models that do not describe graded Ca2+ release (e.g., the common pool model), the models become unstable and can no longer reconstruct the cardiac AP • A stochastic model based on local-control of CICR does exhibit graded release and stable APs under these conditions, but is computationally complex • By making use of separation of time-scales, a “coupled-gating” model of LCC-RyR interactions can be developed in which • all model parameters may all be derived from those of the underlying stochastic system • the coupled gating model consists of a low-dimensional system of ODEs and thus is suitable for multi-scale simulation of heart tissue Local Control Model Reduced Model Reduced Model Experimental Data
