Spatiotemporal Dynamics of β-Adrenergic cAMP Signals and L-Type Ca2+ Channel Regulation in Adult Rat Ventricular Myocytes by Leroy, Jerome

“…The onset and recovery of cAMP transients were, respectively, 30% and 50% faster at the plasma membrane than in the cytosol, in agreement with a rapid production and degradation of the second messenger at the plasma membrane and a restricted diffusion of cAMP to the cytosol. ICa,L amplitude increased twice slower than cAMP at the membrane, and the current remained elevated for ≈5 minutes after cAMP had already returned to basal level, indicating that cAMP changes are not rate-limiting in channel phosphorylation/dephosphorylation. …”
