Intracellular pH (pHi) is a significant modifier of cell-to-cell communication in some tissues but its role is uncertain in heart tissue. The present studies examined the effect of cytosolic protons on electrotonic spread and conduction velocity in cardiac Purkinje fibers. Cable analysis provided values for internal longitudinal resistance (ri) and pH-selective microelectrodes monitored pHi during CO2 and HCO3- alterations. Resting fibers developed changes in ri that were proportional to intracellular free proton concentration ([H+]i) during CO2 changes at constant [HCO3-]. However, the effects on ri were small between pHi 6.9-7.8 and predicted only a 2.2% increase in ri per 10 nM increase in [H+]i. Other findings suggested that titration of cytosolic protons may not directly produce the changes in ri: (a) For an equal change in [H+]i, the effects on ri were roughly three times greater (6.8% increase per 10 nM rise in [H+]i) if bicarbonate was lost during CO2 changes. (b) pH-associated changes in ri were preceded by a time delay (1-5 min) producing hysteresis in the [H+]i-ri relation during successive perturbations. (c) The same CO2 variations modified the direction and magnitude of ri differently during pacing than at rest. The cumulative results suggest that the action of protons on ri in the heart may be subordinate to another regulator or mediated by another pH-dependent substance or reaction.
