InsP 3R-RyR Ca 2+ channel crosstalk facilitates arrhythmias in the failing human ventricle. Basic Res Cardiol 2022; 117:60. [PMID: 36378362 DOI: 10.1007/s00395-022-00967-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2022] [Revised: 10/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Dysregulated intracellular Ca2+ handling involving altered Ca2+ release from intracellular stores via RyR channels underlies both arrhythmias and reduced function in heart failure (HF). Mechanisms linking RyR dysregulation and disease are not fully established. Studies in animals support a role for InsP3 receptor Ca2+ channels (InsP3R) in pathological alterations in cardiomyocyte Ca2+ handling but whether these findings translate to the divergent physiology of human cardiomyocytes during heart failure is not determined. Using electrophysiological and Ca2+ recordings in human ventricular cardiomyocytes, we uncovered that Ca2+ release via InsP3Rs facilitated Ca2+ release from RyR and induced arrhythmogenic delayed after depolarisations and action potentials. InsP3R-RyR crosstalk was particularly increased in HF at RyR clusters isolated from the T-tubular network. Reduced SERCA activity in HF further facilitated the action of InsP3. Nanoscale imaging revealed co-localisation of InsP3Rs with RyRs in the dyad, which was increased in HF, providing a mechanism for augmented Ca2+ channel crosstalk. Notably, arrhythmogenic activity dependent on InsP3Rs was increased in tissue wedges from failing hearts perfused with AngII to promote InsP3 generation. These data indicate a central role for InsP3R-RyR Ca2+ signalling crosstalk in the pro-arrhythmic action of GPCR agonists elevated in HF and the potential for their therapeutic targeting.

Endothelin System and Ischemia-Induced Ventricular Tachyarrhythmias. Life (Basel) 2022; 12:life12101627.

Abstract
Despite the contemporary treatment of acute coronary syndromes, arrhythmic complications occurring prior to medical attendance remain significant, mandating in-depth understanding of the underlying mechanisms. Sympathetic activation has long been known to play a key role in the pathophysiology of ischemia-induced arrhythmias, but the regulating factors remain under investigation. Several lines of evidence implicate the endothelin system (a family of three isopeptides and two specific receptors) as an important modulator of sympathetic activation in the setting of acute coronary syndromes. Such interaction is present in the heart and in the adrenal medulla, whereas less is known on the effects of the endothelin system on the central autonomic network. This article summarizes the current state-of-the-art, placing emphasis on early-phase arrhythmogenesis, and highlights potential areas of future research.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy (CH) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Mitigating or preventing CH is the most effective strategy for the treatment of CVDs. DanHong injection (DH) is a Chinese herbal medicine preparation (CHMP) widely used in clinical treatment of several CVDs in China. However, the direct targets and cellular mechanisms for these protective effects remain unclear. This study was designed to illustrate the direct targets of DH in protecting against CH and investigate CH molecular pathogenesis. A hypertrophic cell model was induced by endothelin-1 (ET-1) on human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPS-CMs). Real time cellular analysis (RTCA) cardio system and high content analysis (HCA) were used to detect the changes in contractile function, morphology and protein level of hypertrophic hiPS-CMs. Agonist and antagonist assay on receptors were performed using calcium mobilization high-throughput screening (HTS). DH significantly attenuated CH by modulating myocardial contractility, suppressing cell area enlargement and down-regulating ET-1-induced brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), actinin alpha 2 (ACTN2) and cardiac muscle troponin T (TNNT2) protein expression (P < 0.05). Endothelin receptor type B (ETBR) and angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1R) were DH direct targets, with IC50 value of 25.67 μL/mL and 1.10 μL/mL, respectively. Proteomics analysis showed that proteins involved in cell cycle inhibition, RNA processing, mitochondrial translation and cytoskeleton are significant regulated by DH treatment. These data revealed that ETBR and AT1R are DH direct targets on protecting against CH, providing a strategy to explore direct targets of CHMPs.

Hormonal Neuroendocrine and Vasoconstrictor Peptide Responses of Ball Game and Cyclic Sport Elite Athletes by Treadmill Test. PLoS One 2015; 10:e0144691.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our objective was to evaluate complex hormonal response in ball game and cyclic sport elite athletes through an incremental treadmill test, since, so far, variables in experimental procedures have often hampered comparisons of data. METHODS We determined anthropometric data, heart rate, maximal oxygen uptake, workload, plasma levels of lactate, adrenaline, noradrenaline, dopamine, cortisol, angiontensinogen and endothelin in control (n = 6), soccer (n = 8), handball (n = 12), kayaking (n = 9) and triathlon (n = 9) groups based on a Bruce protocol through a maximal exercise type of spiroergometric test. RESULTS We obtained significant increases for adrenaline, 2.9- and 3.9-fold by comparing the normalized means for soccer players and kayakers and soccer players and triathletes after/before test, respectively. For noradrenaline, we observed an even stronger, three-time significant difference between each type of ball game and cyclic sport activity. CONCLUSIONS Exercise related adrenaline and noradrenaline changes were more pronounced than dopamine plasma level changes and revealed an opportunity to differentiate cyclic and ball game activities and control group upon these parameters. Normalization of concentration ratios of the monitored compounds by the corresponding maximal oxygen uptake reflected better the differences in the response level of adrenaline, noradrenaline, dopamine and cortisol.

Abstract
Ventricular arrhythmogenesis during acute coronary syndromes is a common cause of sudden cardiac death, but the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Recent evidence indicates an emerging pathophysiologic role of endothelin-1 during myocardial ischaemia and evolving infarction. At the early stages post-coronary occlusion, endothelin-1 enhances sympathetic activation, an effect mediated via the ETA receptor, whereas the ETB receptor exerts protective actions. The importance of this interaction is clearly decreased during subsequent stages, during which endothelin-1 may participate in the genesis of ventricular tachycardia or fibrillation via other mechanisms; of these, the effects of endothelin-1 on repolarizing potassium currents and electrical conduction via gap junctions merit further research. The relative roles of ETA and ETB receptors during this phase are unclear. Evaluation of the arrhythmogenic effects of endothelin-1 during acute coronary syndromes may provide the tools towards lowering sudden cardiac death rates.

Abstract
Post-cardiac arrest myocardial dysfunction is a major cause of mortality in patients receiving successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Mild therapeutic hypothermia (MTH) is the recommended treatment after resuscitation from cardiac arrest (CA) and is known to exert neuroprotective effects and improve short-term survival. Yet its cytoprotective mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study, our aim was to determine the possible effect of MTH on vasoactive mediators belonging to the endothelin/nitric oxide axis in our porcine model of CA and CPR. Pigs underwent either untreated CA or CA with subsequent CPR. After state-of-the-art resuscitation, the animals were either left untreated, cooled between 32–34°C after ROSC or treated with a bolus injection of S-PBN (sodium 4-[(tert-butylimino) methyl]benzene-3-sulfonate N-oxide) until 180 min after ROSC, respectively. The expression of endothelin 1 (ET-1), endothelin converting enzyme 1 (ECE-1), and endothelin A and B receptors (ETAR and ETBR) transcripts were measured using quantitative real-time PCR while protein levels for the ETAR, ETBR and nitric oxide synthases (NOS) were assessed using immunohistochemistry and Western Blot. Our results indicated that the endothelin system was not upregulated at 30, 60 and 180 min after ROSC in untreated postcardiac arrest syndrome. Post-resuscitative 3 hour-long treatments either with MTH or S-PBN stimulated ET-1, ECE-1, ETAR and ETBR as well as neuronal NOS and endothelial NOS in left ventricular cardiomyocytes. Our data suggests that the endothelin and nitric oxide pathways are activated by MTH in the heart.

Abstract
Ventricular tachyarrhythmias are common consequences of coronary artery disease. During the prehospital phase of acute myocardial infarction (MI), ischemia-induced electrophysiological changes and genetic factors are responsible for their occurrence, but the precise pathophysiologic mechanisms are ill-understood. Primary percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) have decreased the incidence of ventricular tachyarrhythmias during subsequent stages, and future treatments ameliorating reperfusion injury may provide further progress. In the chronic phase, antiarrhythmic drug therapy targeted toward arrhythmogenic substrate has relatively limited value, but alternative approaches are still uncertain. By contrast, prompt arrhythmia termination by implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) is highly effective, although risk-stratification algorithms in candidate patients are inadequate. This review explores current views in the pathophysiology and treatment of ventricular tachyarrhythmias at different clinical stages.

Abstract
Cardiac biomarkers assist in the diagnosis of and risk stratification in acute coronary syndromes. In ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), rapid diagnosis and initiation of reperfusion via primary percutaneous coronary intervention or fibrinolysis is often based on the clinical history and presenting ECG, but measurement of biomarkers in the early and/or late phases of STEMI may allow the selection of patients who are at increased or decreased risk of subsequent complications. Although the measurement of only three biomarkers (troponin, natriuretic peptides and C-reactive protein) are currently included in practice guidelines, more than 20 other novel cardiac biomarkers have been proposed to provide improved risk stratification after a STEMI.
