Muscarinic Stimulation Facilitates Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Ca Release by Modulating Ryanodine Receptor 2 Phosphorylation Through Protein Kinase G and Ca/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II.

ABSTRACT: Although the effects and the underlying mechanism of sympathetic stimulation on cardiac Ca handling are relatively well established both in health and disease, the modes of action and mechanisms of parasympathetic modulation are poorly defined. Here, we demonstrate that parasympathetic stimulation initiates a novel mode of excitation-contraction coupling that enhances the efficiency of cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca store utilization. This efficient mode of excitation-contraction coupling involves reciprocal changes in the phosphorylation of ryanodine receptor 2 at Ser-2808 and Ser-2814. Specifically, Ser-2808 phosphorylation was mediated by muscarinic receptor subtype 2 and activation of PKG (protein kinase G), whereas dephosphorylation of Ser-2814 involved activation of muscarinic receptor subtype 3 and decreased reactive oxygen species-dependent activation of CaMKII (Ca/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II). The overall effect of these changes in phosphorylation of ryanodine receptor 2 is an increase in systolic Ca release at the low sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca content and a paradoxical reduction in aberrant Ca leak. Accordingly, cholinergic stimulation of cardiomyocytes isolated from failing hearts improved Ca cycling efficiency by restoring altered ryanodine receptor 2 phosphorylation balance.

Project description:BackgroundCatecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a potentially lethal cardiac arrhythmia syndrome triggered by catecholamines released during exercise, stress, or sudden emotion. Variants in the calsequestrin-2 gene (CASQ2), encoding the major calcium (Ca) binding protein in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), are the second most common cause of CPVT. Recently, several CASQ2 gene variants, such as CASQ2-K180R, have been linked to an autosomal dominant form of Casq2-linked CPVT (CPVT2), but the underlying mechanism is not known.MethodsA K180R mouse model was generated using CRIPSR/Cas9. Heterozygous and homozygous K180R mice were studied using telemetry ECG recordings in vivo. Ventricular cardiomyocytes were isolated and studied using fluorescent Ca indicators and patch clamp. Expression levels and localization of SR Ca-handling proteins were evaluated using Western blotting and immunostaining. Intra-SR Ca kinetics were quantified using low-affinity Ca indicators.ResultsK180R mice exhibit an autosomal dominant CPVT phenotype following exercise or catecholamine stress. Upon catecholamine stress, K180R ventricular cardiomyocytes exhibit increased spontaneous SR Ca release events, triggering delayed afterdepolarizations and spontaneous beats. K180R had no effect on levels of Casq2, Casq2 polymers, or other SR Ca-handling proteins. Intra-SR Ca measurements revealed that K180R impaired dynamic intra-SR Ca buffering, resulting in a more rapid rise of free Ca in the SR during diastole. Steady-state SR Ca buffering and total SR Ca content were not changed. Consistent with the reduced dynamic intra-SR buffering, K180R causes reduced SR Ca release refractoriness.ConclusionsCASQ2-K180R causes CPVT2 via a heretofore unknown mechanism that differs from CASQ2 variants associated with autosomal recessive CPVT2. Unlike autosomal recessive CASQ2 variants, K180R impairs the dynamic buffering of Ca within the SR without affecting total SR Ca content or Casq2 protein levels. Our data provide insight into the molecular mechanism underlying autosomal dominant CPVT2.
