Phosphate depletion is associated with a rise in cytosolic calcium ([Ca2+]i) of cells and such a derangement is responsible in major part for organ dysfunction in phosphate depletion (PD). Cardiac function is impaired in PD, and it is possible that PD is also associated with rise in [Ca2+]i of cardiac myocytes. The present study examined the effect of PD on [Ca2+]i of cardiac myocytes and explored the mechanisms that may lead to the rise in their [Ca2+]i. The [Ca2+]i of cardiac myocytes began to rise and ATP content began to fall at the third week of PD. After six weeks of PD, the values of [Ca2+]i were significantly higher (P < 0.01) and those of ATP content were significantly lower (P < 0.01) than in control (PW) rats. The Vmax of Ca2(+)-ATPase and Na+,K(+)-ATPase as well as the Na(+)-Ca2+ exchange were significantly lower (P < 0.01) in PD than in PW animals. The data of the present study are consistent with the notion that the rise in [Ca2+]i of cardiac myocytes of PD rats is due to a decrease in calcium efflux out of them.
