Project description:Objective: L-type calcium channels (LTCC) homeostatically regulate calcium on a beat by beat basis, but also provide Ca that over long time scales may contribute to transcriptional regulation. We previously showed that sustained LTCC blockade (CCB) elicits LTCC remodeling in ventricular cardiac myocytes (CM). Here we hypothesize that sustained CCB has broad effects on the expression of genes involved in calcium handling. Methods and Results: Therefore, we subjected adult mice to sustained CCB for 24 hours and performed gene expression profiling. In comparison to vehicle-only control animals, 231 genes were up-regulated, and 111 genes were down-regulated by sustained LTCC blockade (p <0.01). Gene ontology analysis suggested that the CaMKIIdelta signaling pathway was up-regulated in these cells. Unexpectedly, phosphorylation of phospholamban (PLN) at threonine17 (Thr17), an index of CaMKIIdelta activity, was not changed by sustained CCB; however, the degree of phosphorylation of the neighboring PLN-Ser16 substrate site for PKA was significantly reduced by sustained CCB compared to control. Gene expression profiling suggested no change in PKA, but it showed that protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) mRNA increased, and immunoblots demonstrated that PP2Ac-alpha protein was significantly increased by sustained CCB. Consistent with elevated PP2Ac-alpha protein expression LTCC exhibited decreased phosphorylation of the C-terminal Ser1928 PKA substrate site. Conclusions: We conclude that sustained CCB elicits a spectrum of transcriptional events, including compensatory up-regulation of LTCC and PP2Ac-alpha. Although this study is restricted to mouse, these results suggest the new hypothesis that clinically-relevant sustained LTCC blockade in humans results in changes in gene regulation in the heart. Keywords: L-type calcium channel, calcium channel blockade, verapamil Female and male ICR mice (12-14 weeks age) weighing between 25 and 30 grams were anesthetized with a ketamine/xylazine mixture ( i.p.) allowing the subcutaneous implantation of miniosmotic pumps (Alzet, model 2001). The pumps were filled with either verapamil or vehicle (0.02% ascorbic acid). Control animals carried mini-pumps with vehicle and control animals were investigated in parallel with each set of experimental animals. Mini pumps delivered verapamil at 3.6 mg/kg/day for 24 (RNA)-48 (protein) hours. After treatment animals were anesthetized and weighed. Hearts were excised, rinsed, blotted dry, weighed, and then frozen on dry ice and the stored at -80oC until studied. Animals were anesthetized and euthanized according to animal protocols approved by the University of Kentucky Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee. This investigation conforms with the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals published by the US National Institutes of Health (NIH Publication NO. 85-23, revised 1996). Left ventricular free wall from female mice was rapidly excised and either snap frozen at -80oC or used immediately for RNA isolation. Three VER treated mice and 3 vehicle treated mice were used to generate RNA for microarray. Total RNA was isolated using the RNAqueous -4PCR kit (Ambion) and quantitated spectrophotometrically at 260nm. Contaminating genomic DNA was eliminated by DNase treatment (Ambion). RNA quality was assessed using the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer. Microarray data was obtained using the Affymetrix 430 V2 GeneChip (representing 45,101 probe sets), in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications.

Project description:We have addressed the question of how different rodent species cope with the life-threatening homeostatic challenge of dehydration at the level of transcriptome modulation in the supraoptic nucleus (SON), a specialised hypothalamic neurosecretory apparatus responsible for the production of the antidiuretic peptide hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP). AVP maintains water balance by promoting water conservation at the level of the kidney. Dehydration evokes a massive increase in the regulated release of AVP from SON axon terminals located in the posterior pituitary, and this is accompanied by a plethora of changes in the morphology, electrophysiological properties, biosynthetic and secretory activity of this structure. Microarray analysis was used to generate a definitive catalogue of the genes expressed in the mouse SON, and to describe how the gene expression profile changes in response to dehydration. Comparison of the genes differentially expressed in the mouse SON as a consequence of dehydration with those of the rat has revealed many similarities, pointing to common processes underlying the function-related plasticity in this nucleus. In addition we have identified many genes that are differentially expressed in a species-specific manner. However, in many cases, we have found that the hyperosmotic cue can induce species-specific alterations in the expression of different genes in the same pathway. The same functional end can be served by different means, via differential modulation, in different species, of different molecules in the same pathway. We suggest that pathways, rather than specific genes, should be the focus of integrative physiological studies based on transcriptome data. Animals. Adult male C57BL/6 mice (Harlan Sera-Lab, Loughborough, UK) were group housed (4 per cage) under controlled temperature (21+ 2ºC) and diurnal light conditions (14-h light, 10-h dark, lights on at 05.00). Food and water were available ad libitum until the experiment commenced. Complete fluid deprivation was imposed for 48 hours starting at 11.00 a.m. Control animals maintained free access to drinking water, and both groups had access to standard laboratory rodent chow. Experiments on adult male rats described previously (27). All procedures were conducted in strict accordance with the Animal Scientific Procedures Act (1986), UK, and were approved by the local University of Bristol Ethical Review Process. Tissue collection. Mice were killed using cervical dislocation and the brain was carefully removed from the cranium and snap frozen using powdered dry ice and stored at -80oC for no more than 14 days. Sections of brain (14μm) were cut using an RNase free cryostat and mounted onto RNase free membrane coated glass slides (P.A.L.M. Membrane slides; P.A.L.M. Microlaser Technologies). Immediately after sectioning, frozen sections were thawed and fixed (30s; in 95% [v/v] EtOH), rehydrated (30s in each of 75% [v/v] and 50% [v/v] EtOH) before being stained (60s 1% [v/v] cresyl violet). Sections were then dehydrated in a graded EtOH series (30s in each of 50% [v/v], 75% [v/v] and 95% [v/v]. then 2x 30s in 100% [v/v]). Laser microdissection was performed using a P.A.L.M. MicrolaserSystem (P.A.L.M. Microlaser Technologies). The SON was identified with reference to Franklin and Paxinos (28) and the tissue from each animal was independently pooled into collection vials containing RNAlater® (Ambion, Huntingdon, UK). A single operative carried out all dissections. Total RNA was isolated without delay (within 24h) according to standard procedures that accompany the Ambion RNAqueous MicroKit (Ambion). Microarray analysis. Separate microarrays (n=4) were probed using independently generated target. For each completely independent replicate, tissue from 1 mouse was used for RNA extraction.
