Abstract Background Kinase oxidation is a critical signalling mechanism through which changes in the intracellular redox state alter cardiac function. In the myocardium, type-1 protein kinase A (PKARIα) can be reversibly oxidised, forming interprotein disulphide bonds within the holoenzyme complex. However, the effect of PKARIα oxidation on downstream signalling in the heart, particularly under states of oxidative stress, remains unexplored. Purpose To determine the direct functional consequences of PKARIα oxidation in the heart and investigate their impact on ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Methods and results Experiments using the AKAR3ev FRET biosensor in murine left ventricular (LV) myocytes and Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) of GFP-tagged wild-type (WT) and mutant RIα proteins expressed in RIα-null fibroblasts showed that PKARIα oxidation does not increase the kinases' catalytic activity, but enhances its binding to A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAP; n=30–39/N=3, p<0.01). Super-resolution microscopy revealed localisation of oxidised PKARIα to lysosomes in WT myocytes, which was completely absent in “redox dead” Cys17Ser PKARIα knock-in mice (KI; panel A; n=38–41/N=3, p<0.01) and reduced when AKAP binding was prevented using the RIAD disruptor peptide (30.6±5.1% reduction; n=35–37/N=3, p<0.01). Displacement of PKARIα from lysosomes resulted in spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release and dramatic calcium oscillations in KI LV myocytes (panel B), which were preventable by ryanodine receptor blockade (1 mM tetracaine; n=14, p<0.01), acute depletion of endolysosomal calcium stores (100 nM bafilomycin; n=7; p<0.01), or lysosomal two-pore channel inhibition (5 μM Ned-19; n=9; p<0.05). I/R (secondary to cardiopulmonary bypass) was found to induce PKARIα oxidation in the myocardium of patients undergoing cardiac surgery (panel C; n=18, p<0.05). Absence of this response in KI mouse hearts resulted in 2-fold larger infarcts (p<0.01) and a concomitant reduction in LV contractile recovery (final LVDP of 55.9±8.6 vs 82.5±7.1 mmHg in WT; n=7–8, p<0.05), both which were prevented by addition of Ned-19 at the time of reperfusion (panel D; n=4, p<0.01). Conclusions Oxidised PKARIα acts as a potent inhibitor of intracellular calcium release in the heart through its redox-dependent interaction with the lysosome. In the setting of I/R, where PKARIα oxidation is induced, this regulatory mechanism is critical for protecting the heart from injury and offers a novel target for the design of cardioprotective therapeutics.

Introduction: Kinase oxidation is a critical signaling mechanism through which changes in the intracellular redox state alter cardiac function. In the myocardium, the regulatory Iα subunit of Protein Kinase A (PKARIα) can be reversibly oxidised, forming interprotein disulfide bonds within the holoenzyme complex. However, the impact of disulfide formation on kinase function, and its influence on PKA signaling in the context of heart disease remains unknown. Methods & Results: Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) was found to be a potent inducer of PKARIα disulfide formation in vivo , both in mice and in humans. Using imaging modalities with high spatial and temporal resolution, we found that this conformation did not increase intrinsic PKA catalytic activity, but rather facilitated enhanced AKAP-dependent compartmentation of PKARIα in the adult mouse left ventricular (LV) myocyte, with preferential localization to the lysosome under oxidized conditions (n=38-41 myocytes, N=3 animals, p<0.01). Investigations in isolated LV myocytes revealed disulfide-modified PKARIα to be a significant regulator of lysosomal two pore channel (TPC)-dependent calcium-induced calcium release, with myocytes from ‘redox dead’ PKARIα mice (Cys17Ser) displaying spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release events and pronounced intracellular calcium oscillations. These events were prevented by ryanodine receptor blockade (1 mM tetracaine; n=14, p<0.01), acute depletion of lysosomal calcium stores (100 nM bafilomycin; n=7; p<0.01), or TPC inhibition (5 μM Ned-19; n=9; p<0.05). Absence of I/R-induced disulfide formation in “redox dead” PKARIα mouse hearts resulted in larger infarcts (2-fold increase, p<0.001) and a concomitant reduction in LV contractile recovery (1.6-fold, p<0.001), which could be fully prevented by administering the TPC inhibitor, Ned-19, at the time of reperfusion. Conclusions: Oxidised PKARIα acts as a potent inhibitor of intracellular calcium release in the heart through its redox-dependent interaction with the lysosome. In the setting of I/R, where PKA oxidation is induced, this regulatory mechanism is critical for protecting the heart from injury and offers a novel target for the design of cardioprotective therapeutics.

Dendritic spines are critical components of the neuronal synapse as they receive and transform the synaptic input into a succession of biochemical events regulated by calcium signaling. The spine apparatus (SA), an extension of smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER), regulates slow and fast calcium dynamics in spines. Calcium release events from SA result in a rapid depletion of calcium ion reservoir, yet the next cycle of signaling requires replenishment of SA calcium stores. How dendritic spines achieve this without triggering calcium release remains unclear. Using computational modeling, calcium and STED super-resolution imaging, we showed that the refilling of calcium-deprived SA involves store-operated calcium entry during spontaneous calcium transients in spine heads. We identified two main conditions that guarantee SA replenishment without depletion: (1) a small amplitude and slow timescale for calcium influx, and (2) a close proximity between SA and plasma membranes. Thereby, molecular nano-organization creates the conditions for a clear separation between SA replenishment and depletion. We further conclude that the nanoscale organization of SA receptors underlies the specificity of calcium dynamics patterns during the induction of long-term synaptic changes.

Limulus ventral photoreceptors contain calcium stores sensitive to release by D-myo-inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphate (InsP3) and a calcium-activated conductance that depolarizes the cell. Mechanisms that terminate the response to InsP3 were investigated using nonmetabolizable DL-myo-inositol 1,4,5 trisphosphorothioate (InsPS3). An injection of 1 mM InsPS3 into a photoreceptor's light-sensitive lobe caused an initial elevation of cytosolic free calcium ion concentration (Cai) and a depolarization lasting only 1-2 s. A period of densensitization followed, during which injections of InsPS3 were ineffective. As sensitivity recovered, oscillations of membrane potential began, continuing for many minutes with a frequency of 0.07-0.3 Hz. The activity of InsPS3 probably results from the D-stereoisomer, since L-InsP3 was much less effective than InsP3. Injections of 1 mM InsP3 caused an initial depolarization and a period of densensitization similar to that caused by 1 mM InsPS3, but no sustained oscillations of membrane potential. The initial response to InsPS3 or InsP3 may therefore be terminated by densensitization, rather than by metabolism. Metabolism of InsP3 may prevent oscillations of membrane potential after sensitivity has recovered. The InsPS3-induced oscillations of membrane potential accompanied oscillations of Cai and were abolished by injection of ethyleneglycol-bis (beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N'-tetraacetic acid. Removal of extracellular calcium reduced the frequency of oscillation but not its amplitude. Under voltage clamp, oscillations of inward current were observed. These results indicate that periodic bursts of calcium release underly the oscillations of membrane potential. After each burst, the sensitivity of the cell to injected InsP3 was greatly reduced, recovering during the interburst interval. The oscillations may, therefore, result in part from a periodic variation in sensitivity to a constant concentration of InsPS3. Prior injection of calcium inhibited depolarization by InsPS3, suggesting that feedback inhibition of InsPS3-induced calcium release by elevated Cai may mediate desensitization between bursts and after injections of InsPS3.

The present study was designed to determine whether the properties of local Ca2+ release and its related regulatory mechanisms might provide insight into the role of sex differences in heart functions of control and streptozotocin-induced diabetic adult rats. Left ventricular developed pressure, the rates of pressure development and decay (±dP/d t), basal intracellular Ca2+ level ([Ca2+]i), and spatiotemporal parameters of [Ca2+]i transients were found to be similar in male and female control rats. However, spatiotemporal parameters of Ca2+ sparks in cardiomyocytes isolated from control females were significantly larger and slower than those in control males. Diabetes reduced left ventricular developed pressure to a lower extent in females than in males, and the diabetes-induced depressions in both +dP/d t and −dP/d t were less in females than in males. Diabetes elicited a smaller reduction in the amplitude of [Ca2+]i transients in females than in males, a smaller reduction in sarcoplasmic reticulum-Ca2+ load, and less increase in basal [Ca2+]i. Similarly, the elementary Ca2+ events and their control proteins were clearly different in both sexes, and these differences were more marked in diabetes. Diabetes-induced depression of the Ca2+ spark amplitude was significantly less in females than in matched males. Levels of cardiac ryanodine receptors (RyR2) and FK506-binding protein 12.6 in control females were significantly higher than those shown in control males. Diabetes induced less RyR2 phosphorylation and FK506-binding protein 12.6 unbinding in females. Moreover, total and free sulfhydryl groups were significantly less reduced, and PKC levels were less increased, in diabetic females than in diabetic males. The present data related to local Ca2+ release and its related proteins describe some of the mechanisms that may underlie sex-related differences accounting for females to have less frequent development of cardiac diseases.

Introduction: Endoglin is an accessory receptor for the cytokine transforming growth factor beta. Reduced endoglin activity limits cardiac fibrosis due to left ventricular (LV) pressure overload. Recently, we reported that reducing endoglin activity also limits upregulation of the profibrogenic transient receptor potential canonical channel 6 (TRPC6) in the right ventricle (RV) during pressure overload. Few studies have compared TRPC channel expression in the RV versus LV. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that endoglin regulates TRPC upregulation in response to RV and LV pressure overload. Methods: To explore a functional role for endoglin as a regulator of TRPC expression in response to RV or LV pressure overload, endoglin haploinsufficient (Eng+/-) and wild-type (Eng+/+) mice were exposed to thoracic aortic (TAC) or pulmonary arterial (PAC) constriction for 10 weeks. Biventricular tissue was then analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Results: After TAC, LV levels of TPRC1 and 6 were increased in both Eng +/+ and Eng +/- mice compared to sham controls. LV levels of TRPC4 were increased in Eng +/+, not Eng +/- mice after TAC. After PAC, RV levels of TRPC1, 3, 4, and 6 were increased in Eng +/+ compared to sham controls. In contrast, chronic RV pressure overload did not increase RV levels of TRPC1, 3, 4, and 6 in Eng +/- mice compared to sham controls. Conclusions: Pressure overload induces distinct profiles of TRPC expression in the RV and LV and these effects in the RV require full endoglin activity. Taken together, these data support that endoglin may be an important and novel target of therapy to modulate RV responses to injury.

Left ventricular diastolic function plays an important role in cardiac physiology. Lusitropy, the ability of the cardiac myocytes to relax, is affected by both biochemical events within the myocyte and biomechanical events in the left ventricle. β-Adrenergic stimulation alters diastole by enhancing the phosphorylation of phospholamban, a substrate within the myocyte that increases the uptake of calcium ions into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, increasing the rate of relaxation. Troponin I, a regulatory protein involved in the coupling of excitation to contraction, is vital to maintaining the diastolic state; depletion of troponin I can produce diastolic dysfunction. Other biochemical events, such as defects in the voltage-sensitive release mechanism or in inositol triphosphate calcium release channels, have also been implicated in altering diastolic tone. Extracellular collagen determines myocardial stiffness; impaired glucose tolerance can induce an increase in collagen cross-linking and lead to higher end-diastolic pressures. The passive properties of the left ventricle are most accurately measured during the diastasis and atrial contraction phases of diastole. These phases of the cardiac cycle are the least affected by volume status, afterload, inherent viscoelasticity, and the inotropic state of the myocardium. Diastolic abnormalities can be conceptualized by using pressure-volume loops that illustrate myocardial work and both diastolic and systolic pressure-volume relationships. The pressure-volume model is an educational tool that can be used to demonstrate isolated changes in preload, afterload, inotropy, and lusitropy and their interaction.

We previously found that polycystin-1 accelerated the decay of ligand-activated cytoplasmic calcium transients through enhanced reuptake of calcium into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER; Hooper KM, Boletta A, Germino GG, Hu Q, Ziegelstein RC, Sutters M. Am J Physiol Renal Physiol 289: F521–F530, 2005). Calcium flux across the ER membrane is determined by the balance of active uptake and passive leak. In the present study, we show that polycystin-1 inhibited calcium leak across the ER membrane, an effect that would explain the capacity of this protein to accelerate clearance of calcium from the cytoplasm following a calcium release response. Calcium leak was detected by measurement of the accumulation of calcium in the cytoplasm following treatment with thapsigargin. Heterologous polycystin-1, stably expressed in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells, attenuated the thapsigargin-induced calcium peak with no effect on basal calcium stores, mitochondrial calcium uptake, or extrusion of calcium across the plasma membrane. The capacity of polycystin-1 to limit the rate of decay of ER luminal calcium following inhibition of the pump was shown indirectly using the calcium ionophore ionomycin, and directly by loading the ER with a low-affinity calcium indicator. We conclude that disruption of ER luminal calcium homeostasis may contribute to the cyst phenotype in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.

Background: Orai1 is a critical ion channel subunit, best recognized as a mediator of store-operated Ca 2+ entry (SOCE) in nonexcitable cells. SOCE has recently emerged as a key contributor of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure but the relevance of Orai1 is still unclear. Methods: To test the role of these Orai1 channels in the cardiac pathophysiology, a transgenic mouse was generated with cardiomyocyte-specific expression of an ion pore-disruptive Orai1 R91W mutant (C-dnO1). Synthetic chemistry and channel screening strategies were used to develop 4-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-N-[(pyridin-4-yl)methyl]aniline (hereafter referred to as JPIII), a small-molecule Orai1 channel inhibitor suitable for in vivo delivery. Results: Adult mice subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) developed cardiac hypertrophy and reduced ventricular function associated with increased Orai1 expression and Orai1-dependent SOCE (assessed by Mn 2+ influx). C-dnO1 mice displayed normal cardiac electromechanical function and cellular excitation-contraction coupling despite reduced Orai1-dependent SOCE. Five weeks after TAC, C-dnO1 mice were protected from systolic dysfunction (assessed by preserved left ventricular fractional shortening and ejection fraction) even if increased cardiac mass and prohypertrophic markers induction were observed. This is correlated with a protection from TAC-induced cellular Ca 2+ signaling alterations (increased SOCE, decreased [Ca 2+ ] i transients amplitude and decay rate, lower SR Ca 2+ load and depressed cellular contractility) and SERCA2a downregulation in ventricular cardiomyocytes from C-dnO1 mice, associated with blunted Pyk2 signaling. There was also less fibrosis in heart sections from C-dnO1 mice after TAC. Moreover, 3 weeks treatment with JPIII following 5 weeks of TAC confirmed the translational relevance of an Orai1 inhibition strategy during hypertrophic insult. Conclusions: The findings suggest a key role of cardiac Orai1 channels and the potential for Orai1 channel inhibitors as inotropic therapies for maintaining contractility reserve after hypertrophic stress.
