Exposure of rat atrial slices to 10(-5) M norepinephrine (NE) for 10 minutes increases 45Ca++ accumulation from 1.64 +/- 0.10 to 2.23 +/- 0.06 nmol/mg tissue. In the presence of leucine enkephalin (10(-8) M), NE-stimulated 45Ca++ uptake is reduced to 1.44 +/- 0.10 nmol/mg tissue. The effect of leu-enkephalin is reversed in the presence of 10(-7) M naloxone, NE-stimulated 45Ca++ uptake being increased to 2.17 +/- 0.15 nmol/mg tissue. The results support a direct interaction of leu enkephalin with beta-agonist-stimulated Ca++ flux in rat atria, and correlate with the previously reported enkephalin antagonism of NE-induced positive chronotropy in the same tissue.
