Abstract
The cardiovascular system is mainly responsible for the transport of substances necessary to cellular metabolism. However, for the good performance of this function, there is need for adequate control of blood pressure levels of tissue perfusion and systemic arterial. Acute myocardial infarction is one of the complications of the cardiovascular system, that most affects the population around the world. This condition can be defined as a disease generated by an imbalance of oxygen concentrations used in cardiovascular metabolism, this change usually occurs because coronary occlusion, which prevents myocardial blood flow. The diagnosis is based on the set of clinical and laboratory investigations, which are in the release of cardiac enzyme biomarkers, cardiovascular and hemodynamic changes and cardiac accommodations. The treatment consists in the use of concomitant cardiovascular drugs, such as: antihypertensive, antiplatelet and hypolipidemic. Despite improvements in clinical and pharmacological management, acute myocardial infarction remains the leading cause of death worldwide. This finding encourages the scientific research of new drugs for the treatment of myocardial infarction or supporting therapies aimed at reducing the levels of deaths and comorbities generated by cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Mavacamten is a novel, FDA-approved, small molecule therapeutic designed to regulate cardiac function by selectively but reversibly inhibiting the enzymatic activity of myosin. It shifts myosin towards ordered off states close to the thick filament backbone. It remains unresolved whether mavacamten permanently sequesters these myosin heads in the off state(s) or whether these heads can be recruited in response to physiological stimuli when required to boost cardiac output. We show that cardiac myosins stabilized in these off state(s) by mavacamten are recruitable by Ca2+, increased heart rate, stretch, and β-adrenergic (β-AR) stimulation, all known physiological inotropic effectors. At the molecular level, we show that, in presence of mavacamten, Ca2+ increases myosin ATPase activity by shifting myosin heads from the reserve super-relaxed (SRX) state to the active disordered relaxed (DRX) state. At the myofilament level, both Ca2+ and passive lengthening can shift ordered off myosin heads from positions close to the thick filament backbone to disordered on states closer to the thin filaments in the presence of mavacamten. In isolated rat cardiomyocytes, increased stimulation rates enhanced shortening fraction in mavacamten-treated cells. This observation was confirmed in vivo in telemetered rats, where left-ventricular dP/dtmax, an index of inotropy, increased with heart rate in mavacamten treated animals. Finally, we show that β-AR stimulation in vivo increases left-ventricular function and stroke volume in the setting of mavacamten. Our data demonstrate that the mavacamten-promoted off states of myosin in the thick filament are activable, at least partially, thus leading to preservation of cardiac reserve mechanisms.

Front Physiol 2022; 13:805909.

Abstract
Heart rate is accelerated to match physiological demands through the action of noradrenaline on the cardiac pacemaker. Noradrenaline is released from sympathetic terminals and activates β1-and β2-adrenergic receptors (ΑRs) located at the plasma membrane of pacemaker cells. L-type calcium channels are one of the main downstream targets potentiated by the activation of β-ARs. For this signaling to occur, L-type calcium channels need to be located in close proximity to β-ARs inside caveolae. Although it is known that aging causes a slowdown of the pacemaker rate and a reduction in the response of pacemaker cells to noradrenaline, there is a lack of in-depth mechanistic insights into these age-associated changes. Here, we show that aging affects the formation and function of adrenergic signaling microdomains inside caveolae. By evaluating the β1 and β2 components of the adrenergic regulation of the L-type calcium current, we show that aging does not alter the regulation mediated by β1-ARs but drastically impairs that mediated by β2-ARs. We studied the integrity of the signaling microdomains formed between L-type calcium channels and β-ARs by combining high-resolution microscopy and proximity ligation assays. We show that consistent with the electrophysiological data, aging decreases the physical association between β2-ARs and L-type calcium channels. Interestingly, this reduction is associated with a decrease in the association of L-type calcium channels with the scaffolding protein AKAP150. Old pacemaker cells also have a reduction in caveolae density and in the association of L-type calcium channels with caveolin-3. Together the age-dependent alterations in caveolar formation and the nano-organization of β2-ARs and L-type calcium channels result in a reduced sensitivity of the channels to β2 adrenergic modulation. Our results highlight the importance of these signaling microdomains in maintaining the chronotropic modulation of the heart and also pinpoint the direct impact that aging has on their function.

Abstract
Activation of different receptors that act by generating the common second messenger cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) can elicit distinct functional responses in cardiac myocytes. Selectively sequestering cAMP activity to discrete intracellular microdomains is considered essential for generating receptor-specific responses. The processes that control this aspect of compartmentalized cAMP signaling, however, are not completely clear. Over the years, technological innovations have provided critical breakthroughs in advancing our understanding of the mechanisms underlying cAMP compartmentation. Some of the factors identified include localized production of cAMP by differential distribution of receptors, localized breakdown of this second messenger by targeted distribution of phosphodiesterase enzymes, and limited diffusion of cAMP by protein kinase A (PKA)-dependent buffering or physically restricted barriers. The aim of this review is to provide a discussion of our current knowledge and highlight some of the gaps that still exist in the field of cAMP compartmentation in cardiac myocytes.

Abstract
Spontaneous AP (action potential) firing of sinoatrial nodal cells (SANC) is critically dependent on protein kinase A (PKA) and Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII)-dependent protein phosphorylation, which are required for the generation of spontaneous, diastolic local Ca2+ releases (LCRs). Although phosphoprotein phosphatases (PP) regulate protein phosphorylation, the expression level of PPs and phosphatase inhibitors in SANC and the impact of phosphatase inhibition on the spontaneous LCRs and other players of the oscillatory coupled-clock system is unknown. Here, we show that rabbit SANC express both PP1, PP2A, and endogenous PP inhibitors I-1 (PPI-1), dopamine and cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate (cAMP)-regulated phosphoprotein (DARPP-32), kinase C-enhanced PP1 inhibitor (KEPI). Application of Calyculin A, (CyA), a PPs inhibitor, to intact, freshly isolated single SANC: (1) significantly increased phospholamban (PLB) phosphorylation (by 2–3-fold) at both CaMKII-dependent Thr17 and PKA-dependent Ser16 sites, in a time and concentration dependent manner; (2) increased ryanodine receptor (RyR) phosphorylation at the Ser2809 site; (3) substantially increased sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ load; (4) augmented L-type Ca2+ current amplitude; (5) augmented LCR’s characteristics and decreased LCR period in intact and permeabilized SANC, and (6) increased the spontaneous basal AP firing rate. In contrast, the selective PP2A inhibitor okadaic acid (100 nmol/L) had no significant effect on spontaneous AP firing, LCR parameters, or PLB phosphorylation. Application of purified PP1 to permeabilized SANC suppressed LCR, whereas purified PP2A had no effect on LCR characteristics. Our numerical model simulations demonstrated that PP inhibition increases AP firing rate via a coupled-clock mechanism, including respective increases in the SR Ca2+ pumping rate, L-type Ca2+ current, and Na+/Ca2+-exchanger current. Thus, PP1 and its endogenous inhibitors modulate the basal spontaneous firing rate of cardiac pacemaker cells by suppressing SR Ca2+ cycling protein phosphorylation, the SR Ca2+ load and LCRs, and L-type Ca2+ current.

Abstract
During the first weeks of postnatal heart development, cardiomyocytes undergo a major adaptive metabolic shift from glycolytic energy production to fatty acid oxidation. This metabolic change is contemporaneous to the up-regulation and activation of the p38γ and p38δ stress-activated protein kinases in the heart. We demonstrate that p38γ/δ contribute to the early postnatal cardiac metabolic switch through inhibitory phosphorylation of glycogen synthase 1 (GYS1) and glycogen metabolism inactivation. Premature induction of p38γ/δ activation in cardiomyocytes of newborn mice results in an early GYS1 phosphorylation and inhibition of cardiac glycogen production, triggering an early metabolic shift that induces a deficit in cardiomyocyte fuel supply, leading to whole-body metabolic deregulation and maladaptive cardiac pathogenesis. Notably, the adverse effects of forced premature cardiac p38γ/δ activation in neonate mice are prevented by maternal diet supplementation of fatty acids during pregnancy and lactation. These results suggest that diet interventions have a potential for treating human cardiac genetic diseases that affect heart metabolism.

Abstract
The small diffusible second messenger 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is found in virtually every cell in our bodies, where it mediates responses to a variety of different G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). In the heart, cAMP plays a critical role in regulating many different aspects of cardiac myocyte function, including gene transcription, cell metabolism, and excitation-contraction coupling. Yet, not all GPCRs that stimulate cAMP production elicit the same responses. Subcellular compartmentation of cAMP is essential to explain how different receptors can utilize the same diffusible second messenger to elicit unique functional responses. However, the mechanisms contributing to this behaviour and its significance in producing physiological and pathological responses are incompletely understood. Mathematical modelling has played an essential role in gaining insight into these questions. This review discusses what we currently know about cAMP compartmentation in cardiac myocytes and questions that are yet to be answered.

Abstract
Delayed rectifier K+ current (IKs) is a key contributor to repolarization of action potentials. This study investigated the mechanisms underlying the adrenoceptor-induced potentiation of IKs in pulmonary vein cardiomyocytes (PVC). PVC were isolated from guinea pig pulmonary vein. The action potentials and IKs current were recorded using perforated and conventional whole-cell patch-clamp techniques. The expression of IKs was examined using immunocytochemistry and Western blotting. KCNQ1, a IKs pore-forming protein was detected as a signal band approximately 100 kDa in size, and its immunofluorescence signal was found to be mainly localized on the cell membrane. The IKs current in PVC was markedly enhanced by both β1- and β2-adrenoceptor stimulation with a negative voltage shift in the current activation, although the potentiation was more effectively induced by β2-adrenoceptor stimulation than β1-adrenoceptor stimulation. Both β-adrenoceptor-mediated increases in IKs were attenuated by treatment with the adenylyl cyclase (AC) inhibitor or protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor. Furthermore, the IKs current was increased by α1-adrenoceptor agonist but attenuated by the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor. PVC exhibited action potentials in normal Tyrode solution which was slightly reduced by HMR-1556 a selective IKs blocker. However, HMR-1556 markedly reduced the β-adrenoceptor-potentiated firing rate. The stimulatory effects of β- and α1-adrenoceptor on IKs in PVC are mediated via the PKA and PKC signal pathways. HMR-1556 effectively reduced the firing rate under β-adrenoceptor activation, suggesting that the functional role of IKs might increase during sympathetic excitation under in vivo conditions.

Abstract
The heart has a reduced capacity to generate sufficient energy when failing, resulting in an energy-starved condition with diminished functions. Studies have identified numerous changes in metabolic pathways in the failing heart that result in reduced oxidation of both glucose and fatty acid substrates, defects in mitochondrial functions and oxidative phosphorylation, and inefficient substrate utilization for the ATP that is produced. Recent early-phase clinical studies indicate that inhibitors of fatty acid oxidation and antioxidants that target the mitochondria may improve heart function during failure by increasing compensatory glucose oxidation. Adrenergic receptors (α1 and β) are a key sympathetic nervous system regulator that controls cardiac function. β-AR blockers are an established treatment for heart failure and α1A-AR agonists have potential therapeutic benefit. Besides regulating inotropy and chronotropy, α1- and β-adrenergic receptors also regulate metabolic functions in the heart that underlie many cardiac benefits. This review will highlight recent studies that describe how adrenergic receptor-mediated metabolic pathways may be able to restore cardiac energetics to non-failing levels that may offer promising therapeutic strategies.

Compartmentation of β 2 -adrenoceptor stimulated cAMP responses by phosphodiesterase types 2 and 3 in cardiac ventricular myocytes. Br J Pharmacol 2021; 178:1574-1587. [PMID: 33475150 DOI: 10.1111/bph.15382] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2020] [Revised: 12/22/2020] [Accepted: 01/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE In cardiac myocytes, cyclic AMP (cAMP) produced by both β1 - and β2 -adrenoceptors increases L-type Ca2+ channel activity and myocyte contraction. However, only cAMP produced by β1 -adrenoceptors enhances myocyte relaxation through phospholamban-dependent regulation of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase 2 (SERCA2). Here we have tested the hypothesis that stimulation of β2 -adrenoceptors produces a cAMP signal that is unable to reach SERCA2 and determine what role, if any, phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity plays in this compartmentation. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH The cAMP responses produced by β1 -and β2 -adrenoceptor stimulation were studied in adult rat ventricular myocytes using two different fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based biosensors, the Epac2-camps, which is expressed uniformly throughout the cytoplasm of the entire cell and the Epac2-αKAP, which is targeted to the SERCA2 signalling complex. KEY RESULTS Selective activation of β1 - or β2 -adrenoceptors produced cAMP responses detected by Epac2-camps. However, only stimulation of β1 -adrenoceptors produced a cAMP response detected by Epac2-αKAP. Yet, stimulation of β2 -adrenoceptors was able to produce a cAMP signal detected by Epac2-αKAP in the presence of selective inhibitors of PDE2 or PDE3, but not PDE4. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS These results support the conclusion that cAMP produced by β2 -adrenoceptor stimulation was not able to reach subcellular locations where the SERCA2 pump is located. Furthermore, this compartmentalized response is due at least in part to PDE2 and PDE3 activity. This discovery could lead to novel PDE-based therapeutic treatments aimed at correcting cardiac relaxation defects associated with certain forms of heart failure.

Abstract
β2-Adrenoceptor (β2-AR) agonists are widely used as bronchodilators. The emerge of ultralong acting β2-agonists is an important breakthrough in pulmonary medicine. In this review, we will provide mechanistic insights into the application of β2-agonists in asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and heart failure (HF). Recent studies in β-AR signal transduction have revealed opposing functions of the β1-AR and the β2-AR on cardiomyocyte survival. Thus, β2-agonists and β-blockers in combination may represent a novel strategy for HF management. Allosteric modulation and biased agonism at the β2-AR also provide a theoretical basis for developing drugs with novel mechanisms of action and pharmacological profiles. Overlap of COPD and HF presents a substantial clinical challenge but also a unique opportunity for evaluation of the cardiovascular safety of β2-agonists. Further basic and clinical research along these lines can help us develop better drugs and innovative strategies for the management of these difficult-to-treat diseases.

Abstract
The second-generation EGFR-TKI Afatinib is an irreversible ErbB family blocker used to treat patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Unfortunately, resistance to this drug develops over time, and patients are always under great psychological pressure. A previous study showed that chronic stress hormones participate in EGFR-TKI resistance via β2 -AR signaling via an IL-6 dependent mechanism. Our study further explores a novel potential underlying mechanism. In the present study, we show that the stress hormone norepinephrine (NE) promotes Afatinib resistance by upregulating Cx32 expression. Furthermore, we, for the first time, find that Cx32 is a target gene for transcription factor CREB and NE enhances Cx32 mRNA expression by activation of CREB. We also demonstrate that Cx32 promotes Afatinib resistance by decreasing the degradation of EGFR-TKI resistance-associated proteins (MET, IGF-1R) and by increasing their transcription levels. Together, these results reveal that the stress hormone NE accelerates Afatinib resistance by increasing the expression of Cx32, which augments MET and IGF-1R levels in cancer cells and provides a promising therapeutic strategy against EGFR-TKI Afatinib resistance in NSCLC.

Abstract
Cardiomyocytes from the apex but not the base of the heart increase their contractility in response to β2-adrenoceptor (β2AR) stimulation, which may underlie the development of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. However, both cell types produce comparable cytosolic amounts of the second messenger cAMP. We investigated this discrepancy using nanoscale imaging techniques and found that, structurally, basal cardiomyocytes have more organized membranes (higher T-tubular and caveolar densities). Local membrane microdomain responses measured in isolated basal cardiomyocytes or in whole hearts revealed significantly smaller and more short-lived β2AR/cAMP signals. Inhibition of PDE4, caveolar disruption by removing cholesterol or genetic deletion of Cav3 eliminated differences in local cAMP production and equilibrated the contractile response to β2AR. We conclude that basal cells possess tighter control of cAMP because of a higher degree of signaling microdomain organization. This provides varying levels of nanostructural control for cAMP-mediated functional effects that orchestrate macroscopic, regional physiological differences within the heart. Cardiomyocyte membrane organization varies in degree between regions of the heart Differences in structural organization affect adrenergic signaling via β2AR Reduced organization allows β2AR-cAMP to influence contractility in myocardial apex Variability in cell structure may allow differential response of heart regions

Abstract
The "Fight or Flight" response is elicited by extrinsic stress and is necessary in many species for survival. The response involves activation of the β-adrenergic signalling pathway. Surprisingly the mechanisms have remained unresolved. Calcium influx through the cardiac L-type Ca2+ channel (Cav1.2) is absolutely required. Here we identify the functionally relevant site for PKA phosphorylation on the human cardiac L-type Ca2+ channel pore forming α1 subunit using a novel approach. We used a cell free system where we could assess direct effects of PKA on human purified channel protein function reconstituted in proteoliposomes. In addition to assessing open probability of channel protein we used semi-quantitative fluorescent phosphoprotein detection and MS/MS mass spectrometry analysis to demonstrate the PKA specificity of the site. Robust increases in frequency of channel openings were recorded after phosphorylation of the long and short N terminal isoforms and the channel protein with C terminus truncated at aa1504. A protein kinase A anchoring protein (AKAP) was not required. We find the novel PKA phosphorylation site at Ser1458 is in close proximity to the Repeat IV S6 region and induces a conformational change in the channel protein that is necessary and sufficient for increased calcium influx through the channel.

The β1- and β2-adrenergic signaling systems play different roles in the functioning of cardiac cells. Experimental data show that the activation of the β1-adrenergic signaling system produces significant inotropic, lusitropic, and chronotropic effects in the heart, whereas the effects of the β2-adrenergic signaling system is less apparent. In this paper, a comprehensive compartmentalized experimentally based mathematical model of the combined β1- and β2-adrenergic signaling systems in mouse ventricular myocytes is developed to simulate the experimental findings and make testable predictions of the behavior of the cardiac cells under different physiological conditions. Simulations describe the dynamics of major signaling molecules in different subcellular compartments; kinetics and magnitudes of phosphorylation of ion channels, transporters, and Ca2+ handling proteins; modifications of action potential shape and duration; and [Ca2+]i and [Na+]i dynamics upon stimulation of β1- and β2-adrenergic receptors (β1- and β2-ARs). The model reveals physiological conditions when β2-ARs do not produce significant physiological effects and when their effects can be measured experimentally. Simulations demonstrated that stimulation of β2-ARs with isoproterenol caused a marked increase in the magnitude of the L-type Ca2+ current, [Ca2+]i transient, and phosphorylation of phospholamban only upon additional application of pertussis toxin or inhibition of phosphodiesterases of type 3 and 4. The model also made testable predictions of the changes in magnitudes of [Ca2+]i and [Na+]i fluxes, the rate of decay of [Na+]i concentration upon both combined and separate stimulation of β1- and β2-ARs, and the contribution of phosphorylation of PKA targets to the changes in the action potential and [Ca2+]i transient.

Abstract
The universal second messengers cyclic nucleotides 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and 3',5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) play central roles in cardiovascular function and disease. They act in discrete, functionally relevant subcellular microdomains which regulate, for example, calcium cycling and excitation-contraction coupling. Such localized cAMP and cGMP signals have been difficult to measure using conventional biochemical techniques. Recent years have witnessed the advent of live cell imaging techniques which allow visualization of these functionally relevant second messengers with unprecedented spatial and temporal resolution at cellular, subcellular and tissue levels. In this review, we discuss these new imaging techniques and give examples how they are used to visualize cAMP and cGMP in physiological and pathological settings to better understand cardiovascular function and disease. Two primary techniques include the use of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) based cyclic nucleotide biosensors and nanoscale scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM). These methods can provide deep mechanistic insights into compartmentalized cAMP and cGMP signaling.

Abstract
With >800 members, G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest class of cell-surface signalling proteins, and their activation mediates diverse physiological processes. GPCRs are ubiquitously distributed across all cell types, involved in many diseases and are major drug targets. However, GPCR drug discovery is still characterized by very high attrition rates. New avenues for GPCR drug discovery may be provided by a recent shift away from the traditional view of signal transduction as a simple chain of events initiated from the plasma membrane. It is now apparent that GPCR signalling is restricted to highly organized compartments within the cell, and that GPCRs activate distinct signalling pathways once internalized. A high-resolution understanding of how compartmentalized signalling is controlled will probably provide unique opportunities to selectively and therapeutically target GPCRs.

Abstract
3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is an ubiquitous second messenger that regulates physiological functions by acting in distinct subcellular microdomains. Although several targeted cAMP biosensors are developed and used in single cells, it is unclear whether such biosensors can be successfully applied in vivo, especially in the context of disease. Here, we describe a transgenic mouse model expressing a targeted cAMP sensor and analyse microdomain-specific second messenger dynamics in the vicinity of the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA). We demonstrate the biocompatibility of this targeted sensor and its potential for real-time monitoring of compartmentalized cAMP signalling in adult cardiomyocytes isolated from a healthy mouse heart and from an in vivo cardiac disease model. In particular, we uncover the existence of a phosphodiesterase-dependent receptor-microdomain communication, which is affected in hypertrophy, resulting in reduced β-adrenergic receptor-cAMP signalling to SERCA.

Abstract
The body is constantly faced with a dynamic requirement for blood flow. The heart is able to respond to these changing needs by adjusting cardiac output based on cues emitted by circulating catecholamine levels. Cardiac β-adrenoceptors transduce the signal produced by catecholamine stimulation via Gs proteins to their downstream effectors to increase heart contractility. During heart failure, cardiac output is insufficient to meet the needs of the body; catecholamine levels are high and β-adrenoceptors become hyperstimulated. The hyperstimulated β1-adrenoceptors induce a cardiotoxic effect, which could be counteracted by the cardioprotective effect of β2-adrenoceptor-mediated Gi signalling. However, β2-adrenoceptor-Gi signalling negates the stimulatory effect of the Gs signalling on cardiomyocyte contraction and further exacerbates cardiodepression. Here, further to the localization of β1- and β2-adrenoceptors and β2-adrenoceptor-mediated β-arrestin signalling in cardiomyocytes, we discuss features of the dysregulation of β-adrenoceptor subtype signalling in the failing heart, and conclude that Gi-biased β2-adrenoceptor signalling is a pathogenic pathway in heart failure that plays a crucial role in cardiac remodelling. In contrast, β2-adrenoceptor-Gs signalling increases cardiomyocyte contractility without causing cardiotoxicity. Finally, we discuss a novel therapeutic approach for heart failure using a Gs-biased β2-adrenoceptor agonist and a β1-adrenoceptor antagonist in combination. This combination treatment normalizes the β-adrenoceptor subtype signalling in the failing heart and produces therapeutic effects that outperform traditional heart failure therapies in animal models. The present review illustrates how the concept of biased signalling can be applied to increase our understanding of the pathophysiology of diseases and in the development of novel therapies.

Abstract
Adrenergic activation of L-type Ca(2+) and various K(+) currents is a crucial mechanism of cardiac adaptation; however, it may carry a substantial proarrhythmic risk as well. The aim of the present work was to study the timing of activation of Ca(2+) and K(+) currents in isolated canine ventricular cells in response to exposure to isoproterenol (ISO). Whole cell configuration of the patch-clamp technique in either conventional voltage clamp or action potential voltage clamp modes were used to monitor I(Ca), I(Ks), and I(Kr), while action potentials were recorded using sharp microelectrodes. ISO (10 nM) elevated the plateau potential and shortened action potential duration (APD) in subepicardial and mid-myocardial cells, which effects were associated with multifold enhancement of I(Ca) and I(Ks) and moderate stimulation of I(Kr). The ISO-induced plateau shift and I(Ca) increase developed faster than the shortening of APD and stimulation of I(Ks) and I(Kr). Blockade of β1-adrenoceptors (using 300 nM CGP-20712A) converted the ISO-induced shortening of APD to lengthening, decreased its latency, and reduced the plateau shift. In contrast, blockade of β2-adrenoceptors (by 50 nM ICI 118,551) augmented the APD-shortening effect and increased the latency of plateau shift without altering its magnitude. All effects of ISO were prevented by simultaneous blockade of both receptor types. Inhibition of phosphodiesterases decreased the differences observed in the turn on of the ISO-induced plateau shift and APD shortening. ISO-induced activation of I(Ca) is turned on faster than the stimulation of I(Ks) and I(Kr) in canine ventricular cells due to the involvement of different adrenergic pathways and compartmentalization.

Abstract
Elderly healthy individuals have a reduced exercise tolerance and a decreased left ventricle inotropic reserve related to increased vascular afterload, arterial-ventricular load mismatching, physical deconditioning and impaired autonomic regulation (the so called "β-adrenergic desensitization"). Adrenergic responsiveness is altered with aging and the age-related changes are limited to the β-adrenergic receptor density reduction and to the β-adrenoceptor-G-protein(s)-adenylyl cyclase system abnormalities, while the type and level of abnormalities change with species and tissues. Epidemiological studies have shown an high incidence and prevalence of heart failure in the elderly and a great body of evidence correlate the changes of β-adrenergic system with heart failure pathogenesis. In particular it is well known that: (a) levels of cathecolamines are directly correlated with mortality and functional status in heart failure, (b) β1-adrenergic receptor subtype is down-regulated in heart failure, (c) heart failure-dependent cardiac adrenergic responsiveness reduction is related to changes in G proteins activity. In this review we focus on the cardiovascular β-adrenergic changes involvement in the aging process and on similarities and differences between aging heart and heart failure.

Abstract
3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a ubiquitous second messenger critically involved in the regulation of heart function. It has been shown to act in discrete subcellular signalling compartments formed by differentially localized receptors, phosphodiesterases and protein kinases. Cardiac diseases such as hypertrophy or heart failure are associated with structural and functional remodelling of these microdomains which leads to changes in cAMP compartmentation. In this review, we will discuss recent key findings which provided new insights into cAMP compartmentation in cardiomyocytes with a particular focus on its alterations in heart disease.

Abstract
The spontaneous beating of the heart is governed by spontaneous firing of sinoatrial node cells, which generate action potentials due to spontaneous depolarization of the membrane potential, or diastolic depolarization. The spontaneous diastolic depolarization rate is determined by spontaneous local submembrane Ca²⁺ releases through ryanodine receptors (RyRs). We sought to identify specific mechanisms of intrinsic Ca²⁺ cycling by which sinoatrial node cells, but not ventricular myocytes, generate robust, rhythmic local Ca²⁺ releases. At similar physiological intracellular Ca²⁺ concentrations, local Ca²⁺ releases were large and rhythmic in permeabilized sinoatrial node cells but small and random in permeabilized ventricular myocytes. Furthermore, sinoatrial node cells spontaneously released more Ca²⁺ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum than did ventricular myocytes, despite comparable sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ content in both cell types. This ability of sinoatrial node cells to generate larger and rhythmic local Ca²⁺ releases was associated with increased abundance of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺-ATPase (SERCA), reduced abundance of the SERCA inhibitor phospholamban, and increased Ca²⁺-dependent phosphorylation of phospholamban and RyR. The increased phosphorylation of RyR in sinoatrial node cells may facilitate Ca²⁺ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, whereas Ca²⁺-dependent increase in phosphorylation of phospholamban relieves its inhibition of SERCA, augmenting the pumping rate of Ca²⁺ required to support robust, rhythmic local Ca²⁺ releases. The differences in Ca²⁺ cycling between sinoatrial node cells and ventricular myocytes provide insights into the regulation of intracellular Ca²⁺ cycling that drives the automaticity of sinoatrial node cells.

Abstract
β1 and β2 adrenergic receptors (βARs) are highly homologous but fulfill distinct physiological and pathophysiological roles. Here we show that both βAR subtypes activate the cAMP-binding protein Epac1, but they differentially affect its signaling. The distinct effects of βARs on Epac1 downstream effectors, the small G proteins Rap1 and H-Ras, involve different modes of interaction of Epac1 with the scaffolding protein β-arrestin2 and the cAMP-specific phosphodiesterase (PDE) variant PDE4D5. We found that β-arrestin2 acts as a scaffold for Epac1 and is necessary for Epac1 coupling to H-Ras. Accordingly, knockdown of β-arrestin2 prevented Epac1-induced histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) nuclear export and cardiac myocyte hypertrophy upon β1AR activation. Moreover, Epac1 competed with PDE4D5 for interaction with β-arrestin2 following β2AR activation. Dissociation of the PDE4D5-β-arrestin2 complex allowed the recruitment of Epac1 to β2AR and induced a switch from β2AR non-hypertrophic signaling to a β1AR-like pro-hypertrophic signaling cascade. These findings have implications for understanding the molecular basis of cardiac myocyte remodeling and other cellular processes in which βAR subtypes exert opposing effects.

Abstract
L-type Ca(2+) channels (LTCCs) are essential for generation of the electrical and mechanical properties of cardiac muscle. Furthermore, regulation of LTCC activity plays a central role in mediating the effects of sympathetic stimulation on the heart. The primary mechanism responsible for this regulation involves β-adrenergic receptor (βAR) stimulation of cAMP production and subsequent activation of protein kinase A (PKA). Although it is well established that PKA-dependent phosphorylation regulates LTCC function, there is still much we do not understand. However, it has recently become clear that the interaction of the various signaling proteins involved is not left to completely stochastic events due to random diffusion. The primary LTCC expressed in cardiac muscle, CaV1.2, forms a supramolecular signaling complex that includes the β2AR, G proteins, adenylyl cyclases, phosphodiesterases, PKA, and protein phosphatases. In some cases, the protein interactions with CaV1.2 appear to be direct, in other cases they involve scaffolding proteins such as A kinase anchoring proteins and caveolin-3. Functional evidence also suggests that the targeting of these signaling proteins to specific membrane domains plays a critical role in maintaining the fidelity of receptor mediated LTCC regulation. This information helps explain the phenomenon of compartmentation, whereby different receptors, all linked to the production of a common diffusible second messenger, can vary in their ability to regulate LTCC activity. The purpose of this review is to examine our current understanding of the signaling complexes involved in cardiac LTCC regulation.

Abstract
In the light of the knowledge accumulated over the years, it becomes clear that intracellular cAMP is not uniformly distributed within cardiomyocytes and that cAMP compartmentation is required for adequate processing and targeting of the information generated at the membrane. Localized cAMP signals may be generated by interplay between discrete production sites and restricted diffusion within the cytoplasm. In addition to specialized membrane structures that may limit cAMP spreading, degradation of the second messenger by cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) appears critical for the formation of dynamic microdomains that confer specificity of the response to various hormones. This review summarizes the main findings that support the cAMP compartmentation hypothesis in cardiac cells, with a special emphasis on PDEs. The respective roles of the four main cardiac cAMP-PDE families (PDE1 to PDE4) in the organization of cAMP microdomains and hormonal specificity in cardiac cells are reviewed. The evidence that these PDEs are modified in heart failure is summarized, and the implication for the progression of the disease is discussed. Finally, the potential benefits that could be awaited from the manipulation of specific PDE subtypes in heart failure are presented.

Abstract
Cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) mediates the biological effects of various hormones and neurotransmitters. Stimulation of cardiac β-adrenergic receptors (β-AR) via catecholamines leads to activation of adenylyl cyclases and increases cAMP production to enhance myocardial function. Because many other receptors signaling through cAMP generation exist in cardiac myocytes, a central question is how different hormones induce distinct cellular responses through the same second messenger. A large body of evidence suggests that the localization and compartmentalization of β-AR/cAMP signaling affects the net outcome of biological functions. Spatiotemporal dynamics of cAMP action is achieved by various proteins, including protein kinase A (PKA), phosphodiesterases, and scaffolding proteins such as A-kinase-anchoring proteins. In addition, the discovery of the cAMP target Epac (exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP), which functions in a PKA-independent manner, represents a novel mechanism for governing cAMP-signaling specificity. Aberrant cAMP signaling through dysregulation of β-AR/cAMP compartmentalization may contribute to cardiac remodeling and heart failure.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a disease process in which diabetes produces a direct and continuous myocardial insult even in the absence of ischemic, hypertensive or valvular disease. The β-blocking agents bisoprolol, carvedilol and metoprolol have been shown in large-scale randomized controlled trials to reduce heart failure mortality. In this review, we summarize the results of our studies investigating the effects of β-blocking agents on cardiac function and metabolism in diabetic heart failure, and the complex inter-related mechanisms involved. Metoprolol inhibits fatty acid oxidation at the mitochondrial level but does not prevent lipotoxicity; its beneficial effects are more likely to be due to pro-survival effects of chronic treatment. These studies have expanded our understanding of the range of effects produced by β-adrenergic blockade and show how interconnected the signaling pathways of function and metabolism are in the heart. Although our initial hypothesis that inhibition of fatty acid oxidation would be a key mechanism of action was disproved, unexpected results led us to some intriguing regulatory mechanisms of cardiac metabolism. The first was upstream stimulatory factor-2-mediated repression of transcriptional master regulator PGC-1α, most likely occurring as a consequence of the improved function; it is unclear whether this effect is unique to β-blockers, although repression of carnitine palmitoyltransferase (CPT)-1 has not been reported with other drugs which improve function. The second was the identification of a range of covalent modifications which can regulate CPT-1 directly, mediated by a signalome at the level of the mitochondria. We also identified an important interaction between β-adrenergic signaling and caveolins, which may be a key mechanism of action of β-adrenergic blockade. Our experience with this labyrinthine signaling web illustrates that initial hypotheses and anticipated directions do not have to be right in order to open up meaningful directions or reveal new information.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Myocardial automatism and arrhythmias may ensue during strong sympathetic stimulation. We sought to investigate the relevant types of adrenoceptor, as well as the role of phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity, in the production of catecholaminergic automatism in atrial and ventricular rat myocardium. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH The effects of adrenoceptor agonists on the rate of spontaneous contractions (automatic response) and the amplitude of electrically evoked contractions (inotropic response) were determined in left atria and ventricular myocytes isolated from Wistar rats. KEY RESULTS Catecholaminergic automatism was Ca(2+) -dependent, as it required a functional sarcoplasmic reticulum to be exhibited. Although both α- and β-adrenoceptor activation caused inotropic stimulation, only β(1) -adrenoceptors seemed to mediate the induction of spontaneous activity. Catecholaminergic automatism was enhanced and suppressed by β(2) -adrenoceptor blockade and stimulation respectively. Inhibition of either PDE3 or PDE4 (by milrinone and rolipram, respectively) potentiated the automatic response of myocytes to catecholamines. However, only rolipram abolished the attenuation of automatism produced by β(2) -adrenoceptor stimulation. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS α- and β(2) -adrenoceptors do not seem to be involved in the mediation of catecholaminergic stimulation of spontaneous activity in atrial and ventricular myocardium. However, a functional antagonism of β(1) - and β(2) -adrenoceptor activation was identified, the former mediating catecholaminergic myocardial automatism and the latter attenuating this effect. Results suggest that hydrolysis of cAMP by PDE4 is involved in the protective effect mediated by β(2) -adrenoceptor stimulation.

Abstract
Influx of Ca(2+) through L-type Ca(2+) channels (LTCCs) contributes to numerous cellular processes in cardiomyocytes including excitation-contraction (EC) coupling, membrane excitability, and transcriptional regulation. Distinct subpopulations of LTCCs have been identified in cardiac myocytes, including those at dyadic junctions and within different plasma membrane microdomains such as lipid rafts and caveolae. These subpopulations of LTCCs exhibit regionally distinct functional properties and regulation, affording precise spatiotemporal modulation of L-type Ca(2+) current (I(Ca,L)). Different subcellular LTCC populations demonstrate variable rates of Ca(2+)-dependent inactivation and sometimes coupled gating of neighboring channels, which can lead to focal, persistent I(Ca,L). In addition, the assembly of spatially defined macromolecular signaling complexes permits compartmentalized regulation of I(Ca,L) by a variety of neurohormonal pathways. For example, β-adrenergic receptor subtypes signal to different LTCC subpopulations, with β(2)-adrenergic activation leading to enhanced I(Ca,L) through caveolar LTCCs and β(1)-adrenergic stimulation modulating LTCCs outside of caveolae. Disruptions in the normal subcellular targeting of LTCCs and associated signaling proteins may contribute to the pathophysiology of a variety of cardiac diseases including heart failure and certain arrhythmias. Further identifying the characteristic functional properties and array of regulatory molecules associated with specific LTCC subpopulations will provide a mechanistic framework to understand how LTCCs contribute to diverse cellular processes in normal and diseased myocardium.

Abstract
In the light of the knowledge accumulated over the years, it becomes clear that intracellular cAMP is not uniformly distributed within cardiomyocytes and that cAMP compartmentation is required for adequate processing and targeting of the information generated at the membrane. Localized cAMP signals may be generated by interplay between discrete production sites and restricted diffusion within the cytoplasm. In addition to specialized membrane structures that may limit cAMP spreading, degradation of the second messenger by cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) appears critical for the formation of dynamic microdomains that confer specificity of the response to various hormones. This review will cover the role of the different cAMP-PDE isoforms in this process. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled "Local Signaling in Myocytes."

Abstract
Inotropy and lusitropy in the ventricular myocyte can be efficiently induced by activation of β1-, but not β2-, adrenoceptors (ARs). Compartmentation of β2-AR-derived cAMP-dependent signalling underlies this functional discrepancy. Here we investigate the mechanism by which caveolae (specialised sarcolemmal invaginations rich in cholesterol and caveolin-3) contribute to compartmentation in the adult rat ventricular myocyte. Selective activation of β2-ARs (with zinterol/CGP20712A) produced little contractile response in control cells but pronounced inotropic and lusitropic responses in cells treated with the cholesterol-depleting agent methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MBCD). This was not linked to modulation of L-type Ca2+ current, but instead to a discrete PKA-mediated phosphorylation of phospholamban at Ser16. Application of a cell-permeable inhibitor of caveolin-3 scaffolding interactions mimicked the effect of MBCD on phosphorylated phospholamban (pPLB) during β2-AR stimulation, consistent with MBCD acting via caveolae. Biosensor experiments revealed β2-AR mobilisation of cAMP in PKA II signalling domains of intact cells only after MBCD treatment, providing a real-time demonstration of cAMP freed from caveolar constraint. Other proteins have roles in compartmentation, so the effects of phosphodiesterase (PDE), protein phosphatase (PP) and phosphoinositide-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors on pPLB and contraction were compared in control and MBCD treated cells. PP inhibition alone was conspicuous in showing robust de-compartmentation of β2-AR-derived signalling in control cells and a comparatively diminutive effect after cholesterol depletion. Collating all evidence, we promote the novel concept that caveolae limit β2-AR-cAMP signalling by providing a platform that not only attenuates production of cAMP but also prevents inhibitory modulation of PPs at the sarcoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
β-Adrenergic receptors (βARs) are crucial for maintaining the rate and force of cardiac muscle contraction in vertebrates. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) have one β1AR gene and two β2AR genes (β2aAR and β2bAR). We examined the roles of these receptors in larval zebrafish in vivo by assessing the impact of translational gene knockdown on cardiac function. Zebrafish larvae lacking β1AR expression by morpholino knockdown displayed lower heart rates than control fish, whereas larvae deficient in both β2aAR and β2bAR expression exhibited significantly higher heart rates than controls. These results suggested a potential inhibitory role for one or both β2AR genes. By using cultured HEK293 cells transfected with zebrafish βARs, we demonstrated that stimulation with adrenaline or procaterol (a β2AR agonist) resulted in an increase in intracellular cAMP levels in cells expressing any of the three zebrafish βARs. In comparison with its human βAR counterpart, zebrafish β2aAR expressed in HEK293 cells appeared to exhibit a unique binding affinity profile for adrenergic ligands. Specifically, zebrafish β2aAR had a high binding affinity for phenylephrine, a classical α-adrenergic receptor agonist. The zebrafish receptors also had distinct ligand binding affinities for adrenergic agonists when compared with human βARs in culture, with zebrafish β2aAR being distinct from human β2AR and zebrafish β2bAR. Overall, this study provides insight into the function and evolution of both fish and mammalian β-adrenergic receptors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Genetic approaches have documented protein kinase B (PKB) as a pivotal regulator of heart function. Insulin strongly activates PKB, whereas adrenaline is not considered a major physiological regulator of PKB in heart. In skeletal muscles, however, adrenaline potentiates insulin-stimulated PKB activation without having effect in the absence of insulin. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the interaction between insulin and beta-adrenergic stimulation in regulation of PKB phosphorylation. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Cardiomyocytes were isolated from adult rats by collagenase, and incubated with insulin, isoprenaline, and other compounds. Protein phosphorylation was evaluated by Western blot and phospho-specific antibodies. KEY RESULTS Isoprenaline increased insulin-stimulated PKB Ser(473) and Thr(308) phosphorylation more than threefold in cardiomyocytes. Isoprenaline alone did not increase PKB phosphorylation. Isoprenaline also increased insulin-stimulated GSK-3beta Ser(9) phosphorylation approximately twofold, supporting that PKB phosphorylation increased kinase activity. Dobutamine (beta(1)-agonist) increased insulin-stimulated PKB phosphorylation as effectively as isoprenaline (more than threefold), whereas salbutamol (beta(2)-agonist) only potentiated insulin-stimulated PKB phosphorylation by approximately 80%. Dobutamine, but not salbutamol, increased phospholamban Ser(16) phosphorylation and glycogen phosphorylase activation (PKA-mediated effects). Furthermore, the cAMP analogue that activates PKA (dibutyryl-cAMP and N(6)-benzoyl-cAMP) increased insulin-stimulated PKB phosphorylation by more than threefold without effect alone. The Epac-specific activator 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-2'-O-methyl-cAMP (007) increased insulin-stimulated PKB phosphorylation by approximately 50%. Db-cAMP and N(6)-benzoyl-cAMP, but not 007, increased phospholamban Ser(16) phosphorylation. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS beta-adrenoceptors are strong regulators of PKB phosphorylation via cAMP and PKA when insulin is present. We hypothesize that PKB mediates important signalling in the heart during beta-adrenergic receptors stimulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) protects hearts against ischemia by reducing infarct size. However, IPC does not preserve cardiac function, such as left ventricular peak developed pressure (LVPDP). Moreover, IPC fails to protect the post-myocardial infarct (MI) heart. DESIGN Rat hearts were transfected with beta2-adrenergic receptor (B2AR) cDNA by the hemagglutinating virus of Japan-liposome method. After the gene transfer, the hearts were perfused in a Langendorff mode and preconditioned with two cycles of 5 min of ischemia and reperfusion. After 20 min of global ischemia, the hearts were reperfused under aerobic conditions for 90 min. LVPDP was measured as an indicator of the cardiac function. RESULTS LVPDP of ischemic hearts was well preserved by the combination treatment of IPC and gene transfer of B2AR, but not IPC or gene transfer of B2AR alone. Moreover, the treatment was beneficial to even the post-MI heart. On the contrary, gene transfer of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase 1 (BARK1) reduced the protective effect of IPC. We also found that the mRNA ratio of B2AR and BARK1 was well correlated with the preservation of the LVPDP. CONCLUSIONS The combination treatment of IPC and gene transfer of B2AR protects cardiac function against ischemia and it shows the beneficial effect also in post-MI hearts.

Abstract
Prior studies indicate that cholinergic receptor (ChR) activation is linked to beating rate reduction (BRR) in sinoatrial nodal cells (SANC) via 1) a G(i)-coupled reduction in adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity, leading to a reduction of cAMP or protein kinase A (PKA) modulation of hyperpolarization-activated current (I(f)) or L-type Ca(2+) currents (I(Ca,L)), respectively; and 2) direct G(i)-coupled activation of ACh-activated potassium current (I(KACh)). More recent studies, however, have indicated that Ca(2+) cycling by the sarcoplasmic reticulum within SANC (referred to as a Ca(2+) clock) generates rhythmic, spontaneous local Ca(2+) releases (LCR) that are AC-PKA dependent. LCRs activate Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchange (NCX) current, which ignites the surface membrane ion channels to effect an AP. The purpose of the present study was to determine how ChR signaling initiated by a cholinergic agonist, carbachol (CCh), affects AC, cAMP, and PKA or sarcolemmal ion channels and LCRs and how these effects become integrated to generate the net response to a given intensity of ChR stimulation in single, isolated rabbit SANC. The threshold CCh concentration ([CCh]) for BRR was approximately 10 nM, half maximal inhibition (IC(50)) was achieved at 100 nM, and 1,000 nM stopped spontaneous beating. G(i) inhibition by pertussis toxin blocked all CCh effects on BRR. Using specific ion channel blockers, we established that I(f) blockade did not affect BRR at any [CCh] and that I(KACh) activation, evidenced by hyperpolarization, first became apparent at [CCh] > 30 nM. At IC(50), CCh reduced cAMP and reduced PKA-dependent phospholamban (PLB) phosphorylation by approximately 50%. The dose response of BRR to CCh in the presence of I(KACh) blockade by a specific inhibitor, tertiapin Q, mirrored that of CCh to reduced PLB phosphorylation. At IC(50), CCh caused a time-dependent reduction in the number and size of LCRs and a time dependent increase in LCR period that paralleled coincident BRR. The phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A reversed the effect of IC(50) CCh on SANC LCRs and BRR. Numerical model simulations demonstrated that Ca(2+) cycling is integrated into the cholinergic modulation of BRR via LCR-induced activation of NCX current, providing theoretical support for the experimental findings. Thus ChR stimulation-induced BRR is entirely dependent on G(i) activation and the extent of G(i) coupling to Ca(2+) cycling via PKA signaling or to I(KACh): at low [CCh], I(KACh) activation is not evident and BRR is attributable to a suppression of cAMP-mediated, PKA-dependent Ca(2+) signaling; as [CCh] increases beyond 30 nM, a tight coupling between suppression of PKA-dependent Ca(2+) signaling and I(KACh) activation underlies a more pronounced BRR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE beta(1)- and beta(2)-adrenoceptors coexist in rat heart but beta(2)-adrenoceptor-mediated inotropic effects are hardly detectable, possibly due to phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity. We investigated the influence of the PDE3 inhibitor cilostamide (300 nmol x L(-1)) and the PDE4 inhibitor rolipram (1 micromol x L(-1)) on the effects of (-)-catecholamines. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Cardiostimulation evoked by (-)-noradrenaline (ICI118551 present) and (-)-adrenaline (CGP20712A present) through beta(1)- and beta(2)-adrenoceptors, respectively, was compared on sinoatrial beating rate, left atrial and ventricular contractile force in isolated tissues from Wistar rats. L-type Ca(2+)-current (I(Ca-L)) was assessed with whole-cell patch clamp. KEY RESULTS Rolipram caused sinoatrial tachycardia. Cilostamide and rolipram did not enhance chronotropic potencies of (-)-noradrenaline and (-)-adrenaline. Rolipram but not cilostamide potentiated atrial and ventricular inotropic effects of (-)-noradrenaline. Cilostamide potentiated the ventricular effects of (-)-adrenaline but not of (-)-noradrenaline. Concurrent cilostamide + rolipram uncovered left atrial effects of (-)-adrenaline. Both rolipram and cilostamide augmented the (-)-noradrenaline (1 micromol x L(-1)) evoked increase in I(Ca-L). (-)-Adrenaline (10 micromol x L(-1)) increased I(Ca-L) only in the presence of cilostamide but not rolipram. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS PDE4 blunts the beta(1)-adrenoceptor-mediated inotropic effects. PDE4 reduces basal sinoatrial rate in a compartment distinct from compartments controlled by beta(1)- and beta(2)-adrenoceptors. PDE3 and PDE4 jointly prevent left atrial beta(2)-adrenoceptor-mediated inotropy. Both PDE3 and PDE4 reduce I(Ca-L) responses through beta(1)-adrenoceptors but the PDE3 component is unrelated to inotropy. PDE3 blunts both ventricular inotropic and I(Ca-L) responses through beta(2)-adrenoceptors.

Abstract
3'-5'-Cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a pleiotropic intracellular second messenger generated in response to activation of G(s) protein-coupled receptors. In the heart, cAMP mediates the catecholaminergic control on heart rate and contractility but, at the same time, it is responsible for the functional response to a wide variety of other hormones and neurotransmitters, raising the question of how the myocyte can decode the cAMP signal and generate the appropriate functional output to each individual extracellular stimulus. A growing body of evidence points to the spatial organization of the components of the cAMP signalling pathway in distinct, spatially segregated signalling domains as the key feature underpinning specificity of response and data is emerging, indicating that alteration of spatial control of the cAMP signal cascade associates with heart pathology. Most of the details of the molecular organization and regulation of individual cAMP signalling compartments are still to be elucidated but future research should provide the knowledge necessary to develop and test new therapeutic strategies that, by acting on a limited subset of downstream targets, would improve efficacy and minimize off-target effects.

Ventricular tachycardia in heart failure (HF) can initiate by nonreentrant mechanisms such as delayed afterdepolarizations. In an arrhythmogenic rabbit model of HF, we have shown that isoproterenol induces ventricular tachycardia in vivo and aftercontractions and transient inward currents in HF myocytes. To determine whether beta(2)-adrenergic receptor (beta(2)-AR) stimulation contributes, we performed in vivo drug infusion, in vitro myocyte and biochemical studies. Intravenous zinterol (2.5 microg/kg) led to ventricular arrhythmias, including ventricular tachycardia up to 13 beats long in 4 of 6 HF rabbits (versus 0 of 5 controls, P<0.01), an effect blocked by beta(2)-AR antagonist ICI-118,551 (0.2 mg/kg). In field-stimulated myocytes (0.5 to 4 Hz, 37 degrees C), beta(2)-AR stimulation (1 micromol/L zinterol+300 nmol/L beta(1)-AR antagonist CGP-29712A) induced aftercontractions and Ca aftertransients in 88% of HF versus 0% of control myocytes (P<0.01). beta(2)-AR stimulation in HF (but not control) myocytes increased Ca transient amplitude (by 29%), sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca load (by 28%), the rate of [Ca](i) decline (by 28%; n=12, all P<0.05), and phospholamban phosphorylation at Ser16, but Ca current was unchanged. All of these effects in HF myocytes were blocked by ICI-118,551 (100 nmol/L). Although total beta-AR expression was reduced by 47% in HF rabbit left ventricle, beta(2)-AR number was unchanged, indicating more potent beta(2)-AR-dependent SR Ca uptake and arrhythmogenesis in HF. Human HF myocytes showed similar beta(2)-AR-induced aftercontractions, aftertransients, and enhanced Ca transient amplitude, SR Ca load and twitch [Ca](i) decline rate. Thus, beta(2)-AR stimulation is arrhythmogenic in HF, mediated by SR Ca overload-induced spontaneous SR Ca release and aftercontractions.

Abstract
Differences in energy metabolism during beta(1)- and beta(2)-adrenergic receptor (AR) stimulation have been shown to translate to differences in the elicited functional responses. It has been suggested that differential access to glycogen during beta(1)- compared with beta(2)-AR stimulation may influence the peak functional response and modulation of the response during sustained adrenergic stimulation. Interleaved (13)C- and (31)P-NMR spectroscopy was used during beta(1)- and beta(2)-AR stimulation at matched peak workload (2.5 times baseline) in the isolated perfused rat heart to monitor glycogen levels, phosphorylation potential, and intracellular pH. Simultaneous measurements of left ventricular (LV) function [LV developed pressure (LVDP)], heart rate (HR), and rate-pressure product (RPP = LVDP x HR) were also performed. The heart was perfused under both substrate-free (SF) conditions and with exogenous glucose (G). The greater glycogenolysis was observed during beta(1)- than beta(2)-AR stimulation with G (54% vs. 38% reduction, P = 0.006) and SF (92% vs. 79% reduction, P = 0.04) perfusions. The greater beta(1)-AR-mediated glycogenolysis was correlated with greater ability to sustain the initial contractile response. However, with SF perfusion, the duration of this ability was limited: excessive early glycogen depletion caused an earlier decline in LVDP and phosphorylation potential during beta(1)- than beta(2)-AR stimulation. Therefore, endogenous glycogen stores are depleted earlier and to a greater extent, despite a slightly weaker overall inotropic response, during beta(1)- than beta(2)-AR stimulation. These findings are consistent with beta(1)-AR-specific PKA-dependent glycogen phosphorylase kinase signaling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Beta2-adrenergic receptor Thr164Ile (threonine (Thr) is replaced by an isoleucine (Ile) at codon 164) polymorphism was postulated to contribute to lower exercise tolerance and poor prognosis in patients with congestive heart failure. However, heart failure is associated with several abnormalities of beta receptor signalling, and underlying mechanisms are not clear. OBJECTIVES To investigate whether Thr164Ile polymorphism negatively modulates myocardial contractile performance and is associated with adverse long-term prognosis of patients with congestive heart failure. METHODS Among 55 subjects, cardiac contractile response to the beta2-adrenergic receptor agonist terbutaline was assessed from the peak myocardial velocity of systolic shortening (Sm) in 18 subjects with the Ile-164 variant and 37 matched controls. In total, 24 subjects had normal left ventricular (LV) function and 31 presented with congestive heart failure due to idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. RESULTS In patients with normal LV function, peak terbutaline-induced increase (Delta) in Sm was lower in subjects with the Ile-164 variant than in controls (Delta33% (4%) vs Delta56% (4%), p<0.01). In patients with heart failure, subjects with Ile-164 showed further severe reduction of beta2-adrenergic-mediated increase in Sm as compared with controls with heart failure (Delta20% (5%) vs Delta39% (4%), p<0.05). Patients with heart failure with Ile-164 showed a severely blunted force-frequency relationship in response to agonist stimulation. At 2-years of follow-up, patients with heart failure with the Ile-164 variant showed higher incidence of adverse events than controls with heart failure (75% (6/8)] vs 30% (7/23), p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The beta2-adrenergic Thr164Ile polymorphism directly modulates adrenergic-mediated cardiac responses in patients with normal and failing myocardium. Furthermore, blunted beta2 adrenergic-mediated myocardial contractile response in patients with Ile-164 variant seems to adversely modulate the course of congestive heart failure.

Abstract
Activation of either coexisting beta1- or beta2 -adrenoceptors with noradrenaline or adrenaline, respectively, causes maximum increases of contractility of human atrial myocardium. Previous biochemical work with the beta2 -selective agonist zinterol is consistent with activation of the cascade beta2 -adrenoceptors-->Gsalpha-protein-->adenylyl cyclase-->cAMP-->protein kinase (PKA)-->phosphorylation of phospholamban, troponin I, and C-protein-->hastened relaxation of human atria from nonfailing hearts. However, in feline and rodent myocardium, catecholamines and zinterol usually do not hasten relaxation through activation of beta2 -adrenoceptors, presumably because of coupling of the receptors to Gi protein. It is unknown whether the endogenously occurring beta2 -adrenoceptor agonist adrenaline acts through the above cascade in human atrium and whether its mode of action could be changed in heart failure. We assessed the effects of (-)-adrenaline, mediated through beta2 -adrenoceptors (in the presence of CGP 20712A 300 nM to block beta1 -adrenoceptors), on contractility and relaxation of right atrial trabecula obtained from nonfailing and failing human hearts. Cyclic AMP levels were measured as well as phosphorylation of phospholamban, troponin I, and protein C with Western blots and the back-phosphorylation procedure. For comparison, beta1 -adrenoceptor-mediated effects of (-)-noradrenaline were investigated in the presence of ICI 118,551 (50 nM to block beta2 -adrenoceptors). The positive inotropic effects of both (-)-noradrenaline and (-)-adrenaline were accompanied by reductions in time to peak force and time to reach 50% relaxation. (-)-Adrenaline caused similar positive inotropic and lusitropic effects in atrial trabeculae from failing hearts. However, the inotropic potency, but not the lusitropic potency, of (-)-noradrenaline was reduced fourfold in atrial trabeculae from heart failure patients. Both (-)-adrenaline and (-)-noradrenaline enhanced cyclic AMP levels and produced phosphorylation of phospholamban, troponin I, and C-protein to a similar extent in atrial trabeculae from nonfailing hearts. The hastening of relaxation caused by (-)-adrenaline together with the PKA-catalyzed phosphorylation of the three proteins involved in relaxation, indicate coupling of beta2 -adrenoceptors to Gs protein. The phosphorylation of phospholamban at serine16 and threonine17 evoked by (-)-adrenaline through beta2 -adrenoceptors and by (-)-noradrenaline through beta1 -adrenoceptors was not different in atria from nonfailing and failing hearts. Activation of beta2 -adrenoceptors caused an increase in phosphorylase a activity in atrium from failing hearts further emphasizing the presence of the beta2 -adrenoceptor-Gsalpha-protein pathway in human heart. The positive inotropic and lusitropic potencies of (-)-adrenaline were conserved across Arg16Gly- and Gln27Glu-beta2 -adrenoceptor polymorphisms in the right atrium from patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery, chronically treated with beta1 -selective blockers. The persistent relaxant and biochemical effects of (-)-adrenaline through beta2 -adrenoceptors and of (-)-noradrenaline through beta1 -adrenoceptors in heart failure are inconsistent with an important role of coupling of beta2 -adrenoceptors with Gialpha-protein in human atrial myocardium.

Abstract
Protein kinase A (PKA) activation has been implicated in early-phase ischemic preconditioning. We recently found that during ischemia PKA activation causes inactivation of cytochrome-c oxidase (CcO) and contributes to myocardial damage due to ischemia-reperfusion. It may be that beta-adrenergic stimulation during ischemia via endogenous catecholamine release activates PKA. Thus beta-adrenergic stimulation may mediate both myocardial protection and damage during ischemia. The present studies were designed to determine the role of the beta(1)-adrenergic receptor (beta(1)-AR) in myocardial ischemic damage and ischemic preconditioning. Langendorff-perfused rabbit hearts underwent 30-min ischemia by anterior coronary artery ligation followed by 2-h reperfusion. Occlusion-reperfusion damage was evaluated by delineating the nonperfused volume of myocardium at risk and volume of myocardial necrosis after 2-h reperfusion. In some hearts ischemic preconditioning was accomplished by two 5-min episodes of global low-flow ischemia separated by 10 min before coronary occlusion-reperfusion. Orthogonal electrocardiograms were recorded, and coronary flow was monitored by a drip count. Three hearts from each experimental group were used to determine mitochondrial CcO and aconitase activities. Two-hour reperfusion after occlusion caused an additional decrease in CcO activity vs. that after 30-min occlusion alone. Blocking the beta(1)-AR during occlusion-reperfusion reversed CcO activity depression and preserved myocardium at risk for necrosis. Similarly, mitochondrial aconitase activity exhibited a parallel response after occlusion-reperfusion as well as for the other interventions. Furthermore, classic ischemic preconditioning had no effect on CcO depression. However, blocking the beta(1)-AR during preconditioning eliminated the cardioprotection. If the beta(1)-AR was blocked after preconditioning, the myocardium was preserved. Interestingly, in both of the latter cases the depression in CcO activity was reversed. Thus the beta(1)-AR plays a dual role in myocardial ischemic damage. Our findings may lead to therapeutic strategies for preserving myocardium at risk for infarction, especially in coronary reperfusion intervention.

Abstract
beta(1)- and beta(2)-adrenergic receptors (ARs) coexist in different regions of the heart. The beta(2)/beta(1) expression ratio is higher in the sinoatrial node (SAN) than in atria and ventricles, but the specific contribution of either type of receptor to rate modulation is still not well established. We have recently demonstrated that pacemaker ("funny") f-channels are located in lipid rafts of the rabbit SAN. Since in ventricular myocytes beta(2)-, but not beta(1)-ARs, localize to caveolae, we hypothesized that modulation of f-channels and of pacemaker activity in SAN myocytes is controlled mainly by beta(2)-AR activation. To address this point, we investigated the caveolar localization of proteins by co-immunoprecipitation and immunocytochemistry, and found that f-channels interact with caveolin 3. We also recorded I(f) current and spontaneous activity from SAN myocytes, and found that beta-AR activation by the non-selective agonists isoproterenol and fenoterol shifted the I(f) activation curve similarly (by 6.3 and 5.3 mV) and increased similarly spontaneous rate (by 23.1% and 21.6%, respectively). Specific beta(2) stimulation had similar effects (4.9 mV shift of the activation curve and 16.9% rate increase), but specific beta(1) stimulation was less effective (1.7 mV shift and 7.2% rate increase). However, after caveolar disorganization by MbetaCD (2%), stimulation of beta(1)-ARs was as effective as non-specific beta-AR stimulation. These data show that specific stimulation of beta(2)-ARs is the main mechanism by which heart rate is modulated through a positive shift of the I(f) activation curve and that this mechanism requires specific membrane compartmentation.
