Heart rate is known to slow down or speed up depending on the environmental temperature. To clarify the size dependency of cardiomyocyte clusters, I made different-sized populations of cardiomyocytes and measured the inter spike interval (ISI) at two environmental temperatures (room temperature and living body temperature). My findings show regardless of the size of cluster, the changes of ISI tend to be the same. Heart rate slowed down at room temperature, and returned to the original pace while rewarming to living body temperature. I also found the first peak negative amplitude decreased at room temperature, and returned to the base line at living body temperature. Then I used E-4031 as a Kv11.1 channel blocker to clarify the related ion channels of temperature effects. As a result, ISI decreased at living body temperature and room temperature compared with control. The results of this study demonstrate that cardiomyocyte clusters can sense and respond to temperature changes regardless of the size, and Kv11.1 channel plays an important role in temperature effect of cardiomyocyte.
