“ Isoproterenol application enhanced and largely resynchronized SR Ca(2+) release, while it increased the magnitude and shortened the time to peak of I(Ca, L).”
“Perfusion of isoproterenol (1 μM) significantly increased the peak ICa, L by 515 ± 44% in 6 atrial myocytes from NF but increased only by 135 ± 25% in 27 atrial myocytes from FH.”

“Isoproterenol ISO ) increased I(Ca, L ) approximately threefold and caused a negative shift in V(0.5) in control cells, but it did not increase I(Ca,L) in MbetaCD-treated myocytes, nor did it shift V(0.5).”
“In euthyroid myocytes, 0.1 μM isoproterenol (Iso) increased ICa, L (at VM=0 mV) from −7.04±0.72 to −22.26±1.88 pA/pF, P<0.05, while in hyperthyroid myocytes (ICa, L=-21.48±2.94 pA/pF), Iso was ineffective.”
“ET-1 (> or =10 nM) suppressed the basal ICa,L to 79+/-8% of control at 20 nM. Bath application of isoproterenol (ISO; 10 nM) enhanced ICa, L to 192+/-28% with about a -10-mV shift of its relationship with membrane potential.”

“In ventricular cells, isoproterenol (1 microM) increased the amplitude of not only the L but also the T currents; the latter effect probably was secondary to a rise in [Ca]i following the augmentation of the L current.”
