More than 80 mutations in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor gene have been found to be associated with autosomal dominant forms of malignant hyperthermia and central core disease, and with recessive forms of multi-minicore disease. Studies on the functional effects of pathogenic dominant mutations have shown that they mostly affect intracellular Ca2+ homoeostasis, either by rendering the channel hypersensitive to activation (malignant hyperthermia) or by altering the amount of Ca2+ released subsequent to physiological or pharmacological activation (central core disease). In the present paper, we show, for the first time, data on the functional effect of two recently identified recessive ryanodine receptor 1 amino acid substitutions, P3527S and V4849I, as well as that of R999H, another substitution that was identified in two siblings that were affected by multi-minicore disease. We studied the intracellular Ca2+ homoeostasis of EBV (Epstein–Barr virus)-transformed lymphoblastoid cells from the affected patients, their healthy relatives and control individuals. Our results show that the P3527S substitution in the homozygous state affected the amount of Ca2+ released after pharmacological activation with 4-chloro-m-cresol and caffeine, but did not affect the size of the thapsigargin-sensitive Ca2+ stores. The other substitutions had no effect on either the size of the intracellular Ca2+ stores, or on the amount of Ca2+ released after ryanodine receptor activation; however, both the P3527S and V4849I substitutions had a small but significant effect on the resting Ca2+ concentration.

Mutations in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1) cause malignant hyperthermia (MH) and central core disease (CCD), whereas mutations in the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) lead to catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Most disease-associated RyR1 and RyR2 mutations are located in the N-terminal, central, and C-terminal regions of the corresponding ryanodine receptor (RyR) isoform. An increasing body of evidence demonstrates that CPVT-associated RyR2 mutations enhance the propensity for spontaneous Ca2+ release during store Ca2+ overload, a process known as store overload-induced Ca2+ release (SOICR). Considering the similar locations of disease-associated RyR1 and RyR2 mutations in the RyR structure, we hypothesize that like CPVT-associated RyR2 mutations, MH/CCD-associated RyR1 mutations also enhance SOICR. To test this hypothesis, we determined the impact on SOICR of 12 MH/CCD-associated RyR1 mutations E2347-del, R2163H, G2434R, R2435L, R2435H, and R2454H located in the central region, and Y4796C, T4826I, L4838V, A4940T, G4943V, and P4973L located in the C-terminal region of the channel. We found that all these RyR1 mutations reduced the threshold for SOICR. Dantrolene, an acute treatment for MH, suppressed SOICR in HEK293 cells expressing the RyR1 mutants R164C, Y523S, R2136H, R2435H, and Y4796C. Interestingly, carvedilol, a commonly used β-blocker that suppresses RyR2-mediated SOICR, also inhibits SOICR in these RyR1 mutant HEK293 cells. Therefore, these results indicate that a reduced SOICR threshold is a common defect of MH/CCD-associated RyR1 mutations, and that carvedilol, like dantrolene, can suppress RyR1-mediated SOICR. Clinical studies of the effectiveness of carvedilol as a long-term treatment for MH/CCD or other RyR1-associated disorders may be warranted.

Ryr1 Gene

Background The search for novel mutations in the ryanodine receptor subtype 1 (RYR1) gene causing malignant hyperthermia and central core disease is hampered by the fact that the gene contains 106 exons. Searching for novel mutations in complementary DNA (cDNA) requires an invasive muscle biopsy. Accordingly, an alternate source of RYR1 cDNA was sought for sequence analysis. Methods Leukocytes were isolated from human blood and used for extraction of RNA and reverse transcription of messenger RNA into cDNA. A detailed protocol was developed in which overlapping fragments of RYR1 cDNA were amplified by polymerase chain reaction in a series of steps and used for double-strand sequencing. Results The sequences of full-length leukocyte RYR1 cDNA obtained from four human blood samples were shown to be identical to the sequence of a human muscle RYR1 cDNA. The incidence of aberrant splicing was more pronounced in the blood-derived cDNAs, but this could be minimized by adequate sample preparation. Protocols to sequence alternatively spliced products were also developed. Several silent nucleotide polymorphisms were detected, and minor revisions were made to the RYR1 sequence. Conclusions Because there are no differences in RYR1 transcript structure between muscle and leukocytes, aside from those that may be ascribed to RNA splicing aberrations during processing, leukocytes seem to be an adequate substitute tissue for screening the RYR1 gene for previously undiscovered mutations in families with malignant hyperthermia or central core disease.
