Intermolecular failure of L-type Ca2+ channel and ryanodine receptor signaling in hypertrophy.

ABSTRACT: Pressure overload-induced hypertrophy is a key step leading to heart failure. The Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+) release (CICR) process that governs cardiac contractility is defective in hypertrophy/heart failure, but the molecular mechanisms remain elusive. To examine the intermolecular aspects of CICR during hypertrophy, we utilized loose-patch confocal imaging to visualize the signaling between a single L-type Ca(2+) channel (LCC) and ryanodine receptors (RyRs) in aortic stenosis rat models of compensated (CHT) and decompensated (DHT) hypertrophy. We found that the LCC-RyR intermolecular coupling showed a 49% prolongation in coupling latency, a 47% decrease in chance of hit, and a 72% increase in chance of miss in DHT, demonstrating a state of "intermolecular failure." Unexpectedly, these modifications also occurred robustly in CHT due at least partially to decreased expression of junctophilin, indicating that intermolecular failure occurs prior to cellular manifestations. As a result, cell-wide Ca(2+) release, visualized as "Ca(2+) spikes," became desynchronized, which contrasted sharply with unaltered spike integrals and whole-cell Ca(2+) transients in CHT. These data suggested that, within a certain limit, termed the "stability margin," mild intermolecular failure does not damage the cellular integrity of excitation-contraction coupling. Only when the modification steps beyond the stability margin does global failure occur. The discovery of "hidden" intermolecular failure in CHT has important clinical implications.

Beta-adrenergic signaling accelerates and synchronizes cardiac ryanodine receptor response to a single L-type Ca2+ channel.

Project description:As the most prototypical G protein-coupled receptor, beta-adrenergic receptor (betaAR) regulates the pace and strength of heart beating by enhancing and synchronizing L-type channel (LCC) Ca(2+) influx, which in turn elicits greater sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) release flux via ryanodine receptors (RyRs). However, whether and how betaAR-protein kinase A (PKA) signaling directly modulates RyR function remains elusive and highly controversial. By using unique single-channel Ca(2+) imaging technology, we measured the response of a single RyR Ca(2+) release unit, in the form of a Ca(2+) spark, to its native trigger, the Ca(2+) sparklet from a single LCC. We found that acute application of the selective betaAR agonist isoproterenol (1 microM, < or = 20 min) increased triggered spark amplitude in an LCC unitary current-independent manner. The increased ratio of Ca(2+) release flux underlying a Ca(2+) spark to SR Ca(2+) content indicated that betaAR stimulation helps to recruit additional RyRs in synchrony. Quantification of sparklet-spark kinetics showed that betaAR stimulation synchronized the stochastic latency and increased the fidelity (i.e., chance of hit) of LCC-RyR intermolecular signaling. The RyR modulation was independent of the increased SR Ca(2+) content. The PKA antagonists Rp-8-CPT-cAMP (100 microM) and H89 (10 microM) both eliminated these effects, indicating that betaAR acutely modulates RyR activation via the PKA pathway. These results demonstrate unequivocally that RyR activation by a single LCC is accelerated and synchronized during betaAR stimulation. This molecular mechanism of sympathetic regulation will permit more fundamental studies of altered betaAR effects in cardiovascular diseases.

Ryanodine receptor luminal Ca2+ regulation: swapping calsequestrin and channel isoforms.

Project description:Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) release in striated muscle is mediated by a multiprotein complex that includes the ryanodine receptor (RyR) Ca(2+) channel and the intra-SR Ca(2+) buffering protein calsequestrin (CSQ). Besides its buffering role, CSQ is thought to regulate RyR channel function. Here, CSQ-dependent luminal Ca(2+) regulation of skeletal (RyR1) and cardiac (RyR2) channels is explored. Skeletal (CSQ1) or cardiac (CSQ2) calsequestrin were systematically added to the luminal side of single RyR1 or RyR2 channels. The luminal Ca(2+) dependence of open probability (Po) over the physiologically relevant range (0.05-1 mM Ca(2+)) was defined for each of the four RyR/CSQ isoform pairings. We found that the luminal Ca(2+) sensitivity of single RyR2 channels was substantial when either CSQ isoform was present. In contrast, no significant luminal Ca(2+) sensitivity of single RyR1 channels was detected in the presence of either CSQ isoform. We conclude that CSQ-dependent luminal Ca(2+) regulation of single RyR2 channels lacks CSQ isoform specificity, and that CSQ-dependent luminal Ca(2+) regulation in skeletal muscle likely plays a relatively minor (if any) role in regulating the RyR1 channel activity, indicating that the chief role of CSQ1 in this tissue is as an intra-SR Ca(2+) buffer.

Interaction between the dihydropyridine receptor Ca2+ channel beta-subunit and ryanodine receptor type 1 strengthens excitation-contraction coupling.

Project description:Previous studies have shown that the skeletal dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR) pore subunit Ca(V)1.1 (alpha1S) physically interacts with ryanodine receptor type 1 (RyR1), and a molecular signal is transmitted from alpha1S to RyR1 to trigger excitation-contraction (EC) coupling. We show that the beta-subunit of the skeletal DHPR also binds RyR1 and participates in this signaling process. A novel binding site for the DHPR beta1a-subunit was mapped to the M(3201) to W(3661) region of RyR1. In vitro binding experiments showed that the strength of the interaction is controlled by K(3495)KKRR_ _R(3502), a cluster of positively charged residues. Phenotypic expression of skeletal-type EC coupling by RyR1 with mutations in the K(3495)KKRR_ _R(3502) cluster was evaluated in dyspedic myotubes. The results indicated that charge neutralization or deletion severely depressed the magnitude of RyR1-mediated Ca(2+) transients coupled to voltage-dependent activation of the DHPR. Meantime the Ca(2+) content of the sarcoplasmic reticulum was not affected, and the amplitude and activation kinetics of the DHPR Ca(2+) currents were slightly affected. The data show that the DHPR beta-subunit, like alpha1S, interacts directly with RyR1 and is critical for the generation of high-speed Ca(2+) signals coupled to membrane depolarization. These findings indicate that EC coupling in skeletal muscle involves the interplay of at least two subunits of the DHPR, namely alpha1S and beta1a, interacting with possibly different domains of RyR1.

Ca2+-mediated activation of the skeletal-muscle ryanodine receptor ion channel.

Project description:Cryo-electron micrograph studies recently have identified a Ca2+-binding site in the 2,200-kDa ryanodine receptor ion channel (RyR1) in skeletal muscle. To clarify the role of this site in regulating RyR1 activity, here we applied mutational, electrophysiological, and computational methods. Three amino acid residues that interact directly with Ca2+ were replaced, and these RyR1 variants were expressed in HEK293 cells. Single-site RyR1-E3893Q, -E3893V, -E3967Q, -E3967V, and -T5001A variants and double-site RyR1-E3893Q/E3967Q and -E3893V/E3967V variants displayed cellular Ca2+ release in response to caffeine, which indicated that they retained functionality as caffeine-sensitive, Ca2+-conducting channels in the HEK293 cell system. Using [3H]ryanodine binding and single-channel measurements of membrane isolates, we found that single- and double-site RyR1-E3893 and -E3967 variants are not activated by Ca2+ We also noted that RyR1-E3893Q/E3967Q and -E3893V/E3967V variants maintain caffeine- and ATP-induced activation and that RyR1-E3893Q/E3967Q is inhibited by Mg2+ and elevated Ca2+ RyR1-T5001A exhibited decreased Ca2+ sensitivity compared with WT-RyR1 in single-channel measurements. Computational methods suggested that electrostatic interactions between Ca2+ and negatively charged glutamate residues have a critical role in transducing the functional effects of Ca2+ on RyR1. We conclude that the removal of negative charges in the recently identified RyR1 Ca2+-binding site impairs RyR1 activation by physiological Ca2+ concentrations and results in loss of binding to Ca2+ or reduced Ca2+ affinity of the binding site.

Heart failure-induced cognitive dysfunction is mediated by intracellular Ca2+ leak through ryanodine receptor type 2.

Project description:Cognitive dysfunction (CD) in heart failure (HF) adversely affects treatment compliance and quality of life. Although, ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2) has been linked to cardiac muscle dysfunction, its role in CD remains unclear. Here, we show in hippocampal neurons from patients and mice with HF that the ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2)/intracellular Ca 2+ release channels were post-translationally modified (PTM) and leaky. RyR2 PTM was caused by hyper-adrenergic stress and activation of the transforming growth factor (TGF-β) pathway. HF mice treated with either a RyR2 stabilizer drug (S107), beta-blocker (propranolol) or TGF-β inhibitor (SD-208), or mice insensitive RyR2 Ca 2+ leak (RyR2-S2808A), were protected against HF-induced CD. Taken together, we propose that HF is a systemic illness that include cardiogenic dementia, and intracellular Ca 2+ leak is a common effector in multiple components of HF.

Insights into the gating mechanism of the ryanodine-modified human cardiac Ca2+-release channel (ryanodine receptor 2).

Project description:Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are intracellular membrane channels playing key roles in many Ca(2+) signaling pathways and, as such, are emerging novel therapeutic and insecticidal targets. RyRs are so named because they bind the plant alkaloid ryanodine with high affinity and although it is established that ryanodine produces profound changes in all aspects of function, our understanding of the mechanisms underlying altered gating is minimal. We address this issue using detailed single-channel gating analysis, mathematical modeling, and energetic evaluation of state transitions establishing that, with ryanodine bound, the RyR pore adopts an extremely stable open conformation. We demonstrate that stability of this state is influenced by interaction of divalent cations with both activating and inhibitory cytosolic sites and, in the absence of activating Ca(2+), trans-membrane voltage. Comparison of the conformational stability of ryanodine- and Imperatoxin A-modified channels identifies significant differences in the mechanisms of action of these qualitatively similar ligands.

The cardiac ryanodine receptor luminal Ca2+ sensor governs Ca2+ waves, ventricular tachyarrhythmias and cardiac hypertrophy in calsequestrin-null mice.

Project description:CASQ2 (cardiac calsequestrin) is commonly believed to serve as the SR (sarcoplasmic reticulum) luminal Ca2+ sensor. Ablation of CASQ2 promotes SCWs (spontaneous Ca2+ waves) and CPVT (catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia) upon stress but not at rest. How SCWs and CPVT are triggered by stress in the absence of the CASQ2-based luminal Ca2+ sensor is an important unresolved question. In the present study, we assessed the role of the newly identified RyR2 (ryanodine receptor 2)-resident luminal Ca2+ sensor in determining SCW propensity, CPVT susceptibility and cardiac hypertrophy in Casq2-KO (knockout) mice. We crossbred Casq2-KO mice with RyR2 mutant (E4872Q+/-) mice, which lack RyR2-resident SR luminal Ca2+ sensing, to generate animals with both deficiencies. Casq2+/- and Casq2-/- mice showed stress-induced VTs (ventricular tachyarrhythmias), whereas Casq2+/-/E4872Q+/- and Casq2-/-/E4872Q+/- mice displayed little or no stress-induced VTs. Confocal Ca2+ imaging revealed that Casq2-/- hearts frequently exhibited SCWs after extracellular Ca2+ elevation or adrenergic stimulation, whereas Casq2-/-/E4872Q+/- hearts had few or no SCWs under the same conditions. Cardiac hypertrophy developed and CPVT susceptibility increased with age in Casq2-/- mice, but not in Casq2-/-/E4872Q+/- mice. However, the amplitudes and dynamics of voltage-induced Ca2+ transients in Casq2-/- and Casq2-/-/E4872Q+/- hearts were not significantly different. Our results indicate that SCWs, CPVT and hypertrophy in Casq2-null cardiac muscle are governed by the RyR2-resident luminal Ca2+ sensor. This implies that defects in CASQ2-based lumi-nal Ca2+ sensing can be overridden by the RyR2-resident luminal Ca2+ sensor. This makes this RyR2-resident sensor a promising molecular target for the treatment of Ca2+-mediated arrhythmias.

Malignant hyperthermia susceptibility arising from altered resting coupling between the skeletal muscle L-type Ca2+ channel and the type 1 ryanodine receptor.

Project description:Malignant hyperthermia (MH) susceptibility is a dominantly inherited disorder in which volatile anesthetics trigger aberrant Ca(2+) release in skeletal muscle and a potentially fatal rise in perioperative body temperature. Mutations causing MH susceptibility have been identified in two proteins critical for excitation-contraction (EC) coupling, the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1) and Ca(V)1.1, the principal subunit of the L-type Ca(2+) channel. All of the mutations that have been characterized previously augment EC coupling and/or increase the rate of L-type Ca(2+) entry. The Ca(V)1.1 mutation R174W associated with MH susceptibility occurs at the innermost basic residue of the IS4 voltage-sensing helix, a residue conserved among all Ca(V) channels [Carpenter D, et al. (2009) BMC Med Genet 10:104-115.]. To define the functional consequences of this mutation, we expressed it in dysgenic (Ca(V)1.1 null) myotubes. Unlike previously described MH-linked mutations in Ca(V)1.1, R174W ablated the L-type current and had no effect on EC coupling. Nonetheless, R174W increased sensitivity of Ca(2+) release to caffeine (used for MH diagnostic in vitro testing) and to volatile anesthetics. Moreover, in Ca(V)1.1 R174W-expressing myotubes, resting myoplasmic Ca(2+) levels were elevated, and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) stores were partially depleted, compared with myotubes expressing wild-type Ca(V)1.1. Our results indicate that Ca(V)1.1 functions not only to activate RyR1 during EC coupling, but also to suppress resting RyR1-mediated Ca(2+) leak from the SR, and that perturbation of Ca(V)1.1 negative regulation of RyR1 leak identifies a unique mechanism that can sensitize muscle cells to MH triggers.

FKBP12 activates the cardiac ryanodine receptor Ca2+-release channel and is antagonised by FKBP12.6.

Project description:Changes in FKBP12.6 binding to cardiac ryanodine receptors (RyR2) are implicated in mediating disturbances in Ca(2+)-homeostasis in heart failure but there is controversy over the functional effects of FKBP12.6 on RyR2 channel gating. We have therefore investigated the effects of FKBP12.6 and another structurally similar molecule, FKBP12, which is far more abundant in heart, on the gating of single sheep RyR2 channels incorporated into planar phospholipid bilayers and on spontaneous waves of Ca(2+)-induced Ca(2+)-release in rat isolated permeabilised cardiac cells. We demonstrate that FKBP12 is a high affinity activator of RyR2, sensitising the channel to cytosolic Ca(2+), whereas FKBP12.6 has very low efficacy, but can antagonise the effects of FKBP12. Mathematical modelling of the data shows the importance of the relative concentrations of FKBP12 and FKBP12.6 in determining RyR2 activity. Consistent with the single-channel results, physiological concentrations of FKBP12 (3 µM) increased Ca(2+)-wave frequency and decreased the SR Ca(2+)-content in cardiac cells. FKBP12.6, itself, had no effect on wave frequency but antagonised the effects of FKBP12.We provide a biophysical analysis of the mechanisms by which FK-binding proteins can regulate RyR2 single-channel gating. Our data indicate that FKBP12, in addition to FKBP12.6, may be important in regulating RyR2 function in the heart. In heart failure, it is possible that an alteration in the dual regulation of RyR2 by FKBP12 and FKBP12.6 may occur. This could contribute towards a higher RyR2 open probability, 'leaky' RyR2 channels and Ca(2+)-dependent arrhythmias.

Regulation of the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor/Ca2+-release channel RyR1 by S-palmitoylation.

Project description:The ryanodine receptor/Ca(2+)-release channels (RyRs) of skeletal and cardiac muscle are essential for Ca(2+) release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum that mediates excitation-contraction coupling. It has been shown that RyR activity is regulated by dynamic post-translational modifications of Cys residues, in particular S-nitrosylation and S-oxidation. Here we show that the predominant form of RyR in skeletal muscle, RyR1, is subject to Cys-directed modification by S-palmitoylation. S-Palmitoylation targets 18 Cys within the N-terminal, cytoplasmic region of RyR1, which are clustered in multiple functional domains including those implicated in the activity-governing protein-protein interactions of RyR1 with the L-type Ca(2+) channel CaV1.1, calmodulin, and the FK506-binding protein FKBP12, as well as in "hot spot" regions containing sites of mutations implicated in malignant hyperthermia and central core disease. Eight of these Cys have been identified previously as subject to physiological S-nitrosylation or S-oxidation. Diminishing S-palmitoylation directly suppresses RyR1 activity as well as stimulus-coupled Ca(2+) release through RyR1. These findings demonstrate functional regulation of RyR1 by a previously unreported post-translational modification and indicate the potential for extensive Cys-based signaling cross-talk. In addition, we identify the sarco/endoplasmic reticular Ca(2+)-ATPase 1A and the ?1S subunit of the L-type Ca(2+) channel CaV1.1 as S-palmitoylated proteins, indicating that S-palmitoylation may regulate all principal governors of Ca(2+) flux in skeletal muscle that mediates excitation-contraction coupling.
