Abstract
Returning to normal pH after acidosis, similar to reperfusion after ischemia, is prone to arrhythmias. The type and mechanisms of these arrhythmias have never been explored and were the aim of the present work. Langendorff-perfused rat/mice hearts and rat-isolated myocytes were subjected to respiratory acidosis and then returned to normal pH. Monophasic action potentials and left ventricular developed pressure were recorded. The removal of acidosis provoked ectopic beats that were blunted by 1 muM of the CaMKII inhibitor KN-93, 1 muM thapsigargin, to inhibit sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) uptake, and 30 nM ryanodine or 45 muM dantrolene, to inhibit SR Ca(2+) release and were not observed in a transgenic mouse model with inhibition of CaMKII targeted to the SR. Acidosis increased the phosphorylation of Thr(17) site of phospholamban (PT-PLN) and SR Ca(2+) load. Both effects were precluded by KN-93. The return to normal pH was associated with an increase in SR Ca(2+) leak, when compared with that of control or with acidosis at the same SR Ca(2+) content. Ca(2+) leak occurred without changes in the phosphorylation of ryanodine receptors type 2 (RyR2) and was blunted by KN-93. Experiments in planar lipid bilayers confirmed the reversible inhibitory effect of acidosis on RyR2. Ectopic activity was triggered by membrane depolarizations (delayed afterdepolarizations), primarily occurring in epicardium and were prevented by KN-93. The results reveal that arrhythmias after acidosis are dependent on CaMKII activation and are associated with an increase in SR Ca(2+) load, which appears to be mainly due to the increase in PT-PLN.

Abstract
The regulation of the Ca2+ -induced Ca2+ release (CICR) from intracellular stores is a critical step in the cardiac cycle. The inherent positive feedback of CICR should make it a self-regenerating process. It is accepted that CICR must be governed by some negative control, but its nature is still debated. We explore here the importance of the Ca2+ released from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) on the mechanisms that may control CICR. Specifically, we compared the effect of replacing Ca2+ with Sr2+ on intracellular Ca2+ signaling in intact cardiac myocytes as well as on the function of single ryanodine receptor (RyR) Ca2+ release channels in panar bilayers. In cells, both CICR and Sr2+ -induced Sr2+ release (SISR) were observed. Action potential induced Ca2+ -transients and spontaneous Ca2+ waves were considerably faster than their Sr2+ -mediated counterparts. However, the kinetics of Ca2+ and Sr2+ sparks was similar. At the single RyR channel level, the affinities of Ca2+ and Sr2+ activation were different but the affinities of Ca2+ and Sr2+ inactivation were similar. Fast Ca2+ and Sr2+ stimuli activated RyR channels equally fast but adaptation (a spontaneous slow transition back to steady-state activity levels) was not observed in the Sr2+ case. Together, these results suggest that regulation of the RyR channel by cytosolic Ca2+ is not involved in turning off the Ca2+ spark. In contrast, cytosolic Ca2+ is important in the propagation global Ca2+ release events and in this regard single RyR channel sensitivity to cytosolic Ca2+ activation, not low-affinity cytosolic Ca2+ inactivation, is a key factor. This suggests that the kinetics of local and global RyR-mediated Ca2+ release signals are affected in a distinct way by different divalent cations in cardiac muscle cells.

Abstract
The block of rabbit skeletal ryanodine receptors (RyR1) and dog heart RyR2 by cytosolic [Mg2+], and its reversal by agonists Ca2+, ATP and caffeine was studied in planar bilayers. Mg2+ effects were tested at submaximal activating [Ca2+] (5 microM). Approximately one third of the RyR1s had low open probability ("LA channels") in the absence of Mg2+. All other RyR1s displayed higher activity ("HA channels"). Cytosolic Mg2+ (1 mM) blocked individual RyR1 channels to varying degrees (32 to 100%). LA channels had residual P(o) <0.005 in 1 mM Mg2+ and reactivated poorly with [Ca2+] (100 microM), caffeine (5 mM), or ATP (4 mM; all at constant 1 mM Mg2+). HA channels had variable activity in Mg2+ and variable degree of recovery from Mg2+ block with Ca2+, caffeine or ATP application. Nearly all cardiac RyR2s displayed high activity in 5 microM [Ca2+]. They also had variable sensitivity to Mg2+. However, the RyR2s consistently recovered from Mg2+ block with 100 microM [Ca2+] or caffeine application, but not when ATP was added. Thus, at physiological [Mg2+], RyR2s behaved as relatively homogeneous Ca2+/caffeine-gated HA channels. In contrast, RyR1s displayed functional heterogeneity that arises from differential modulatory actions of Ca2+ and ATP. These differences between RyR1 and RyR2 function may reflect their respective roles in muscle physiology and excitation-contraction coupling.

Abstract
The calcium release channels/ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are potential/putative targets of cADPR (cyclic ADP-ribose) action in many tissue systems. In striated muscles, where RyRs predominate, cADPR action on these channels is controversial. Here cADPR modulation of cardiac and skeletal muscle RyR channels was tested. We considered factors reported as necessary for cADPR action, such as the presence of calmodulin and/or FK binding proteins (FKBPs). We found: 1) The RyR channel isoforms were insensitive to cADPR (or its metabolite NAADP [nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate]) under all conditions examined, as studied by: 1a) single channel recordings in planar lipid bilayers; 1b) macroscopic behavior of the RyRs in sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) microsomes (including crude microsome preparations likely to retain putative cADPR cofactors) at room temperature and at 37 degrees C (net energized Ca2+ uptake or passive Ca2+ leak); 2) [32P]cADPR did not bind significantly to SR microsomes; 3) cADPR did not affect FKBP association to SR membranes. We conclude that cADPR does not interact directly with RyRs or RyR-associated SR proteins. Our results under in vitro conditions suggest that c ADPR effects on Ca2+ signaling observed in vivo in mammalian striated muscle cells may reflect indirect modulation of RyRs or RyR-independent Ca2+ release systems.

Abstract
The ryanodine receptors are intracellular Ca2+ release channels that play a key role in cell signaling via Ca2+. There are three isoforms. Isoform 1 from skeletal muscle and isoform 2 from heart have been characterized. Isoform 3 is widely distributed in many mammalian tissues although in minuscule amounts. Its low abundance has hampered its study. We now describe methodology to isolate mammalian isoform 3 in amounts sufficient for biochemical and biophysical characterization. Bovine diaphragm sarcoplasmic reticulum fractions enriched in terminal cisternae containing both isoforms 1 (>95%) and 3 (<5% of the ryanodine binding) served as starting source. Isoform 3 was selectively immunoprecipitated from the 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)-dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonic acid (CHAPS)-solubilized fraction and eluted with peptide epitope. Isoform 3 thus prepared is highly purified as characterized by SDS-polyacryamide gel electrophoresis, Coomassie Blue staining, and by high affinity ryanodine binding. The purified isoform 3 was incorporated into planar lipid bilayers, and its channel properties were studied. Channel characteristics in common with the other two isoforms are slope conductance, higher selectivity to Ca2+ versus K+ (PCa/K approximately 6), and response to drugs and ligands. In its response to Ca2+ and ATP, it more closely resembles isoform 2. The first two-dimensional structure of isoform 3 was obtained by cryoelectron microscopy and image enhancement techniques.

Abstract
The single-channel activity of rabbit skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (skeletal RyR) and dog cardiac RyR was studied as a function of cytosolic [Ca2+]. The studies reveal that for both skeletal and cardiac RyRs, heterogeneous populations of channels exist, rather than a uniform behavior. Skeletal muscle RyRs displayed two extremes of behavior: 1) low-activity RyRs (LA skeletal RyRs, approximately 35% of the channels) had very low open probability (Po < 0.1) at all [Ca2+] and remained closed in the presence of Mg2+ (2 mM) and ATP (1 mM); 2) high-activity RyRs (HA skeletal RyRs) had much higher activity and displayed further heterogeneity in their Po values at low [Ca2+] (< 50 nM), and in their patterns of activation by [Ca2+]. Hill coefficients for activation (nHa) varied from 0.8 to 5.2. Cardiac RyRs, in comparison, behaved more homogeneously. Most cardiac RyRs were closed at 100 nM [Ca2+] and activated in a cooperative manner (nHa ranged from 1.6 to 5.0), reaching a high Po (> 0.6) in the presence and absence of Mg2+ and ATP. Heart RyRs were much less sensitive (10x) to inhibition by [Ca2+] than skeletal RyRs. The differential heterogeneity of heart versus skeletal muscle RyRs may reflect the modulation required for calcium-induced calcium release versus depolarization-induced Ca2+ release.

Abstract
In the present study, we compare functional consequences of dissociation and reconstitution of binding proteins FKBP12 and FKBP12.6 with ryanodine receptors from cardiac (RyR2) and skeletal muscle (RyR1). The skeletal muscle RyR1 channel became activated on removal of endogenously bound FKBP12, consistent with previous reports. Both FKBP12 and FKBP12.6 rebind to FKBP-depleted RyR1 and restore its quiescent channel behavior by altering ligand sensitivity, as studied by single-channel recordings in planar lipid bilayers, and macroscopic behavior of the channels (ryanodine binding and net energized Ca2- uptake). By contrast, removal of FKBP12.6 from the cardiac RyR2 did not modulate the function of the channel using the same types of assays as for RyR1. FKBP12 or FKBP12.6 had no effect on channel activity of FKBP12.6-depleted cardiac RyR2, although FKBP12.6 rebinds. Our studies reveal important differences between the two ryanodine receptor isoforms with respect to their functional interaction with FKBP12 and FKBP12.6.

Abstract
We describe a method to isolate epithelial cells from gallbladders of Necturus maculosus with preserved structural and functional polarity. Isolation was carried out with a mixture of collagenase and protease, with only a brief exposure to a divalent-cation-free medium. About 40% of the isolated epithelial cells had a "figure-eight" shape and retained metabolic and cell membrane integrity. Figure-eight cells display features consistent with preserved polarity for several hours, including the following: 1) the "apical" and "basolateral" membrane domains were differentially labeled by a hydrophobic fluorescent dye; 2) freeze fracture electron microscopy verified two plasma membrane domains differing in the presence of microvilli and folds and separated by tight junctions; 3) proteins such as ZO-1, NHE3, and Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase remained localized in the junctional, apical, and basolateral regions, respectively; 4) after apical surface exposure to wheat germ agglutinin, the label remained in the apical membrane after cell isolation; and 5) patch-clamp experiments demonstrated polarized expression of K+ channels. Polarity was rapidly lost after removal of extracellular Ca2+, exposure to trypsin, or ATP depletion. Therefore, this preparation allows for structural and functional studies of epithelial transport in single cells retaining the essential features present in the assembled epithelium.
