Ca2+-dependent regulation of sodium channels NaV1.4 and NaV1.5 is controlled by the post-IQ motif.

ABSTRACT: Skeletal muscle voltage-gated Na+ channel (NaV1.4) activity is subject to calmodulin (CaM) mediated Ca2+-dependent inactivation; no such inactivation is observed in the cardiac Na+ channel (NaV1.5). Taken together, the crystal structures of the NaV1.4 C-terminal domain relevant complexes and thermodynamic binding data presented here provide a rationale for this isoform difference. A Ca2+-dependent CaM N-lobe binding site previously identified in NaV1.5 is not present in NaV1.4 allowing the N-lobe to signal other regions of the NaV1.4 channel. Consistent with this mechanism, removing this binding site in NaV1.5 unveils robust Ca2+-dependent inactivation in the previously insensitive isoform. These findings suggest that Ca2+-dependent inactivation is effected by CaM's N-lobe binding outside the NaV C-terminal while CaM's C-lobe remains bound to the NaV C-terminal. As the N-lobe binding motif of NaV1.5 is a mutational hotspot for inherited arrhythmias, the contributions of mutation-induced changes in CDI to arrhythmia generation is an intriguing possibility.

Project description:RationaleThe cardiac sodium channel NaV1.5, encoded by SCN5A, produces the rapidly inactivating depolarizing current INa that is responsible for the initiation and propagation of the cardiac action potential. Acquired and inherited dysfunction of NaV1.5 results in either decreased peak INa or increased residual late INa (INa,L), leading to tachy/bradyarrhythmias and sudden cardiac death. Previous studies have shown that increased cellular NAD+ and NAD+/NADH ratio increase INa through suppression of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species and PKC-mediated NaV1.5 phosphorylation. In addition, NAD+-dependent deacetylation of NaV1.5 at K1479 by Sirtuin 1 increases NaV1.5 membrane trafficking and INa. The role of NAD+ precursors in modulating INa remains unknown.ObjectiveTo determine whether and by which mechanisms the NAD+ precursors nicotinamide riboside (NR) and nicotinamide (NAM) affect peak INa and INa,Lin vitro and cardiac electrophysiology in vivo.Methods and resultsThe effects of NAD+ precursors on the NAD+ metabolome and electrophysiology were studied using HEK293 cells expressing wild-type and mutant NaV1.5, rat neonatal cardiomyocytes (RNCMs), and mice. NR increased INa in HEK293 cells expressing NaV1.5 (500 μM: 51 ± 18%, p = .02, 5 mM: 59 ± 22%, p = .03) and RNCMs (500 μM: 60 ± 26%, p = .02, 5 mM: 74 ± 39%, p = .03) while reducing INa,L at the higher concentration (RNCMs, 5 mM: -45 ± 11%, p = .04). NR (5 mM) decreased NaV1.5 K1479 acetylation but increased INa in HEK293 cells expressing a mutant form of NaV1.5 with disruption of the acetylation site (NaV1.5-K1479A). Disruption of the PKC phosphorylation site abolished the effect of NR on INa. Furthermore, NAM (5 mM) had no effect on INa in RNCMs or in HEK293 cells expressing wild-type NaV1.5, but increased INa in HEK293 cells expressing NaV1.5-K1479A. Dietary supplementation with NR for 10-12 weeks decreased QTc in C57BL/6 J mice (0.35% NR: -4.9 ± 2.0%, p = .14; 1.0% NR: -9.5 ± 2.8%, p = .01).ConclusionsNAD+ precursors differentially regulate NaV1.5 via multiple mechanisms. NR increases INa, decreases INa,L, and warrants further investigation as a potential therapy for arrhythmic disorders caused by NaV1.5 deficiency and/or dysfunction.
