Резюме: Objective: Sarcoplasmic reticulum is one of the most important intracellular Ca2+ depots, and in it the Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase ensures the process of Ca2+ accumulation. A large number of pathologies are caused by a violation of Ca2+ deposition, therefore it is important to search for non-toxic compounds – modifiers of these processes. Such modifiers can be certain calixarenes, in particular calix[4]arene C-956. Materials and methods: The studies were conducted on isolated myocytes and ring preparations of the aorta of rats. The enzymatic activity of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase of myocytes was investigated. Changes in Ca2+ concentration in myocytes were recorded by confocal microscopy. Tensometric experiments were performed in isometric and isotonic modes. Kinetic analysis of contractions was carried out by the Kosterin-Burdyga method. Results: Calix[4]arene C-956 has the most significant inhibitory effect on Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase activity in sarcoplasmic reticulum compared to other analogues. The application of C-956 to myocytes causes an increase in the intracellular Ca2+ concentration. Also, calix[4]arene C-956 activated tension waves and increased the amplitude of contractions, without changing their kinetic characteristics. Discussion: Since calix[4]arene C-956 inhibited the activity of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase, increased the concentration of Ca2+ ions in the cytoplasm, and activated the contraction of aortic rings without changing their normalized maximum velocities, it can be assumed that it acts as a selective inhibitor of this enzyme. Conclusion: Calix[4]arene C-956 is a promising compound-inhibitor of the Ca2+,Mg2+-ATPase of aortal sarcoplasmic reticulum, which may have theoretical and practical significance.
