Original Abstract

Voltage sensitive dyes are widely used for measurement of action potential in various cardiac studies. The elementary condition for its application is fact that measured electrophysiological parameters would not be affected by measuring procedure itself. The prolongation of RR interval in the presence of the most used voltage sensitive dye di-4-ANEPPS has been reported, however the exact mechanism is not known. In this study we examine impact of di-4-ANEPPS on impulse conduction through the atrioventricular (AV) node and cardiac ventricles in isolated rabbit heart. The impulse conduction through AV node in presence of di-4-ANEPPS was prolonged only in phase of dye loading at 14th, 16th and 17th minute. Only sporadic AV block was observed. In comparison, the prolongation of impulse conduction through cardiac ventricles was observed after 13th minute of dye loading and persisted to the end of this phase as well as over the whole wash out phase.
