Abstract
Cardio-stimulatory actions of aciclovir have been considered to primarily depend on the sympathetically-mediated reflex resulting from its hypotensive effect. To further clarify onset mechanisms of the cardio-stimulatory actions, we initially studied them using isoflurane-anesthetized dogs under thorough β1-adrenoceptor blockade with atenolol (1 mg/kg, i.v.) (n = 4). Aciclovir (20 mg/kg/10 min, i.v.) decreased mean arterial blood pressure by 10 mmHg, whereas it increased heart rate by 10 bpm and maximum upstroke velocity of ventricular pressure by 928 mmHg/s, and shortened AH interval by 2 ms, indicating that cardio-stimulatory actions were not totally abolished by β1-adrenoceptor blockade. Then, unknown mechanisms of cardio-stimulatory action were explored. Since aciclovir has a similar chemical structure to theophylline, in silico molecular docking simulation was performed, indicating aciclovir as well as theophylline possesses strong likelihood of interactions with phosphodiesterase 1A, 1C and 3A. Indeed, aciclovir inhibited phosphodiesterase 1A derived from the bovine heart (n = 4), moreover it exerted positive chronotropic action on the atrial tissue preparation of rats along with an increase of tissue cyclic AMP concentration (n = 4). These results indicate that cardio-stimulatory actions of aciclovir could result from not only hypotension-induced, reflex-mediated increase of sympathetic tone but also its inhibitory effects on phosphodiesterase in the heart.

Abstract
An injectable anti-influenza drug peramivir has been reported to induce QT-interval prolongation in some phase III studies, although its thorough QT/QTc study was negative. We investigated the discrepancy among those clinical studies using isoflurane-anesthetized beagle dogs (n = 4). Peramivir in doses of 1 mg/kg/10 min (sub-therapeutic dose) followed by 10 mg/kg/10 min (clinically-relevant dose) was intravenously administered. Peramivir prolonged QT interval/QTcV and Tpeak-Tend, and tended to delay ventricular repolarization in a reverse-frequency dependent manner, indicating IKr inhibition in vivo. Meanwhile, peramivir did not alter P-wave duration, PR interval or QRS width, indicating a lack of impact on cardiac conduction via Na+ or Ca2+ channel inhibition in vivo. Peramivir prolonged Tpeak-Tend and tended to prolong terminal repolarization period, which would develop substrates for initiating and maintaining spiral reentry, respectively. Meanwhile, peramivir did not prolong J-Tpeakc, which could not induce early afterdepolarization, a trigger inducing torsade de pointes. Thus, our results support that clinical dose exposure of peramivir can delay the ventricular repolarization in influenza patients. Peramivir has only a small potential to induce torsade de pointes in patients with the intact hearts, but caution should be paid on its use for patients formerly having the trigger for torsade de pointes.

Abstract
We simultaneously assessed electropharmacological effects of anti-atrial fibrillatory drug vernakalant and its potential risk toward torsade de pointes. Vernakalant hydrochloride in doses of 0.3 and 3 mg/kg/10 min was intravenously administered to isoflurane-anesthetized beagle dogs without (n = 5) and with (n = 4) α-adrenoceptor blockade. Its vascular effect was analyzed using the rat aortae (n = 12). Vernakalant increased total peripheral vascular resistance and preload to left ventricle, leading to transient elevation of mean blood pressure indirectly via non-adrenergic pathway. Vernakalant suppressed sinus automaticity, ventricular contractility and intra-atrial/atrioventricular nodal/intraventricular conductions, and decreased cardiac output. Moreover, vernakalant prolonged atrial/ventricular effective refractory period by 53/55 ms, respectively, whereas it delayed ventricular repolarization in a reverse frequency-dependent manner. The extent of prolongation in early/late ventricular repolarization and electrically vulnerable period was 26/32 and 9 ms, respectively when QT-interval prolongation was the greatest. We compared them with those of known anti-atrial fibrillatory drugs; ranolazine, amiodarone, dronedarone, dl-sotalol and bepridil. The magnitude of vernakalant to alter those variables was the greater among those drugs except that the atrial selectivity was the lesser of those. Thus, vernakalant is expected to be efficacious against atrial fibrillation, but caution should be excised on its use for patients having labile ventricular function and repolarization.

Abstract
Licorice has been traditionally prescribed for palpitation, whereas its overdose has caused lethal arrhythmias including torsade de pointes. Licorice contains glycyrrhizic acid of ≥ 2% (w/w), which is hydrolyzed to glycyrrhetinic acid (GRA) in the intestine. Since their cardiac electropharmacological properties are not fully understood, we assessed them to ask mechanism of licorice-induced torsade de pointes. GRA at 0.1, 1 and 10 μg/mL was cumulatively applied to the human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes sheets (n = 6). GRA shortened spontaneous activation interval and repolarization period, and decreased maximum contraction velocity, indicating Ca2+ channel blockade. It prolonged effective refractory period and post-repolarization refractoriness with a steep frequency-dependency, whereas it delayed conduction with a modest use-dependency, resembling lidocaine in the mode of Na+ channel-blocking action. Meanwhile, Kanzoto containing a decoction of licorice alone in a dose of 2 or 6 g/body/day was orally administered to the conscious chronic atrioventricular block dogs for 3 days (n = 4). Kanzoto prolonged QT interval with increasing its temporal dispersion, suggesting K+ channel suppression, and slightly decreased the plasma K+ concentration without inducing torsade de pointes. Moreover, it significantly suppressed atrial and idioventricular rates, leading to sinus arrest along with the onset of ventricular fibrillation in one animal, possibly due to Na+ channel blockade. These results indicate that electropharmacological profile of licorice can be explained by Na+, Ca2+ and K+ channels blockade, which may be associated with low torsadogenic risk, but might contribute to the onset of other types of lethal ventricular arrhythmias.

Abstract
Acute hyperglycemia causes various cardiovascular responses; however, the underlying pathophysiology in vivo is myriad and complex, of which mutual interactions remain poorly understood. We analyzed the cardiovascular effects of acute hyperglycemia in comparison with those of hyperosmolality alone. Three g/kg of D-glucose (n = 4) or D-mannitol (n = 4) was intravenously infused to isoflurane-anesthetized intact dogs. Glucose infusion increased plasma glucose level and osmolality, whereas mannitol infusion similarly changed osmolality to glucose infusion but decreased glucose level. Glucose infusion decreased total peripheral vascular resistance, but increased heart rate, left ventricular contraction, left ventricular preload and cardiac output without altering mean blood pressure. Mannitol infusion likewise changed them, but its positive chronotropic and inotropic effects were less potent than those of glucose infusion. Glucose infusion prolonged PR interval, QRS width and QTcV. Mannitol infusion similarly changed them, but its QTcV prolongation was smaller than that of glucose infusion. Glucose infusion-induced cardiovascular responses would be basically attributed to osmolality-dependent mechanisms, whereas its positive chronotropic and inotropic effects along with repolarization delay may be enhanced by osmolality-independent mechanisms, including hyperglycemia by itself and insulin release.

Abstract
We studied time course of pathological remodeling occurring in the cynomolgus monkey hearts against persistent atrioventricular block condition (n = 10). The atrioventricular block induced the ventricular and atrial dilation followed by the ventricular hypertrophy. Interstitial fibrosis in the ventricle was also observed along with gradual increases in the plasma angiotensin II and aldosterone concentrations. These adaptations were associated with the changes in gene expression profiling reflecting fibrosis and hypertrophy. Atrioventricular block reduced the ventricular rate and cardiac output, but the ejection fraction and stroke volume increased, whereas the cardiac output was gradually restored to its basal level. Systolic/diastolic blood pressure after the atrioventricular block was kept equal to or lower than that before the block, according with lack of increase in the plasma catecholamine levels. Chronic atrioventricular block gradually prolonged the QRS width and JT interval, leading to the QT interval prolongation in conscious state. 10 mg/kg of dl-sotalol hydrochloride induced torsade de pointes (TdP) in 6 out of 10 animals by 15 months. Animals showing longer QTcF under anesthesia after the atrioventricular block developed dl-sotalol-induced TdP earlier. No marked difference was observed in pharmacokinetics of dl-sotalol between 1 and 7 months after the atrioventricular block. Each TdP spontaneously terminated, reflecting a monkey's relatively small "effective size of the heart (=∛(left ventricular weight)/wavelength of reentry)". These fundamental knowledge will help better utilize the chronic atrioventricular block monkeys as an in vivo proarrhythmia model for detecting drug-induced TdP.

Abstract
Antiparasitic ivermectin has been reported to induce cardiovascular adverse events, including orthostatic hypotension, tachycardia and cardiopulmonary arrest, of which the underlying pathophysiology remains unknown. Since its drug repurposing as an antiviral agent is underway at higher doses than those for antiparasitic, we evaluated the cardiovascular safety pharmacology of ivermectin using isoflurane-anesthetized beagle dogs (n=4). Ivermectin in doses of 0.1 followed by 1 mg/kg was intravenously infused over 10 min with an interval of 20 min, attaining peak plasma concentrations of 0.94 ± 0.04 and 8.82 ± 1.25 μg/mL, which were 29-31 and 276-288 times higher than those observed after its antiparasitic oral dose of 12 mg/body, respectively. The latter peak concentration was > 2 times greater than those inhibiting proliferation of dengue virus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and hepatitis B virus in vitro. Ivermectin decreased heart rate without altering mean blood pressure, suggesting that ivermectin does not cause hypotension or tachycardia directly. Ivermectin hardly altered atrioventricular nodal or intraventricular conduction, indicating a lack of inhibitory action on Ca2+ or Na+ channel in vivo. Ivermectin prolonged QT interval/QTcV in a dose-related manner and tended to slow the repolarization speed in a reverse frequency-dependent manner, supporting previously described its IKr inhibition, which would explain Tpeak-Tend prolongation and heart-rate reduction in this study. Meanwhile, ivermectin did not significantly prolong J-Tpeakc or terminal repolarization period, indicating torsadogenic potential of ivermectin leading to the onset of cardiopulmonary arrest would be small. Thus, ivermectin has a broad range of cardiovascular safety profiles, which will help facilitate its drug repurposing.

Abstract
Long-term use of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) is known to clinically induce hypomagnesemia, increasing the risk toward QT-interval prolongation and lethal ventricular arrhythmias, whereas PPIs can directly modulate cardiac ionic currents in the in vitro experiments. In order to fill the gap between those information, we assessed acute cardiohemodynamic and electrophysiological effects of sub- to supra-therapeutic doses (0.05, 0.5 and 5 mg/kg/10 min) of typical PPIs omeprazole, lansoprazole and rabeprazole, using halothane-anesthetized dogs (n = 6 for each drug). The low and middle doses of omeprazole and lansoprazole increased or tended to increase the heart rate, cardiac output and ventricular contraction, whereas the high dose plateaued and decreased them. Meanwhile, the low and middle doses of omeprazole and lansoprazole decreased the total peripheral vascular resistance, whereas the high dose plateaued and increased it. Rabeprazole decreased the mean blood pressure in a dose-related manner; moreover, its high dose decreased the heart rate and tended to reduce the ventricular contractility. On the other hand, omeprazole prolonged the QRS width. Omeprazole and lansoprazole tended to prolong the QT interval and QTcV, and rabeprazole mildly but significantly prolonged them in a dose-related manner. High dose of each PPI prolonged the ventricular effective refractory period. Omeprazole shortened the terminal repolarization period, whereas lansoprazole and rabeprazole hardly altered it. In effects, PPIs can exert multifarious cardiohemodynamic and electrophysiological actions in vivo, including mild QT-interval prolongation; thus, PPIs should be given with caution to patients with reduced ventricular repolarization reserve.

Abstract
Validation of risk-stratification method for the chronic atrioventricular block cynomolgus monkey model and its mechanistic interpretation were performed using 6 pharmacologically-distinct drugs. The following drugs were orally administered in conscious state, astemizole: 1, 5 and 10 mg/kg (n = 6); haloperidol: 1, 10 and 30 mg/kg (n = 5); amiodarone: 30 mg/kg (n = 4); famotidine: 10 mg/kg (n = 4); levofloxacin: 100 mg/kg (n = 4); and tolterodine: 0.2, 1 and 4.5 mg/kg (n = 4). Astemizole of 5 and 10 mg/kg significantly prolonged ΔΔQTcF, whereas no significant change was observed by the others. Torsade de pointes (TdP) was induced by astemizole of 5 and 10 mg/kg in 3/6 and 6/6, and by haloperidol of 10 and 30 mg/kg in 1/5 and 1/5, respectively, which was not observed in the others. Torsadogenic risk of the drugs was quantified using the criteria for the monkey model specified in our previous study. Namely, high-risk drugs induced TdP at ≤ 3times of their maximum clinical daily dose. Intermediate-risk drugs did not induce TdP at this dose range, but induced it at higher doses. Low/no-risk drugs never induced TdP at any dose tested. The magnitude of risk was intermediate for astemizole and haloperidol, and low/no risk for the others. The pre-specified, risk-stratification method for the monkey model may solve the issue existing between non-clinical models and patients with labile repolarization, which can reinforce the regulatory decision-making and labelling at time of marketing application of non-double-negative drug candidate (hERG assay positive and/or in vivo QT study positive).

Abstract
Cognitive function progressively declines with advancing age. The aging process can be promoted by obesity and attenuated by exercise. Both conditions affect levels of the chemokine CX3CL1 in peripheral tissues; however, its role in cognitive aging is unknown. In the current study, we administered CX3CL1 into the peritoneal cavity of aged mice to investigate its impact on the aging process. In the peritoneal cavity, CX3CL1 not only reversed the age-associated accumulation of cells expressing the senescence marker p16INK4a but also increased peritoneal phagocytic activity, indicating that CX3CL1 affected the phenotypes of peritoneal cells. In the hippocampus of aged mice, intraperitoneal administration of CX3CL1 increased the number of Type-2 neural stem cells and promoted brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression. This treatment, furthermore, improved novel object recognition memory impaired with advancing age. Intraperitoneal transplantation of peritoneal cells from CX3CL1-treated aged mice improved novel object recognition memory in recipient aged mice. It indicates that peritoneal cells have a critical role in the CX3CL1-induced improvement of recognition memory in aged mice. Vagotomy inhibited the CX3CL1-induced increase in BDNF expression, demonstrating that the vagus nerve is involved in the hippocampal BDNF expression induced by intraperitoneal administration of CX3CL1. Thus, our results demonstrate that a novel connection among the peritoneal cells, the vagus nerve, and the hippocampus can reverse the age-associated decline in recognition memory.

Abstract
Since information of antiviral drug oseltamivir on the anti-atrial fibrillation (AF) property is still limited, we assessed it using the canine paroxysmal AF model. Oseltamivir in doses of 3 and 30 mg/kg/10 min was intravenously infused to the isoflurane-anesthetized, chronic atrioventricular block dogs (n = 6) with monitoring hemodynamic and electrophysiological variables, in which AF was induced by 10 s of burst pacing on atrial septum. Oseltamivir decreased AF incidence and AF duration, and prolonged AF cycle length in a dose-dependent manner. The low and high doses attained the peak plasma drug concentrations of 9.7 and 96.5 μg/mL, which were approximately 100 and 1000 times greater than those observed in human clinical cases, respectively. The low dose of oseltamivir decreased mean blood pressure without altering sinoatrial or idioventricular rate, whereas its high dose reduced each of them. Oseltamivir delayed inter-atrial conduction in dose- and frequency-dependent manners, whereas it prolonged atrial effective refractory period in dose-dependent but frequency-independent manners. The high dose prolonged ventricular effective refractory period, which was not detected with the low dose. These findings can be used for repurposing oseltamivir as an anti-AF drug candidate.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Effects of rapid electrical defibrillation and β-blockade on coronary ischemia/reperfusion-induced ventricular fibrillation (VF) during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) remain unknown.Methods and Results:After induction of VF by 30 min of ischemia followed by reperfusion, animals were treated with defibrillation alone (Group A, n=13), 2 min of open-chest cardiac massage followed by defibrillation (Group B, n=11), or the same therapy to Group B with propranolol (1 mg/kg, i.v.) treatment before ischemia/reperfusion (Group C, n=11). If return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) was not attained, each therapy was repeated ≤3 times (Set-1). When ROSC was not obtained within Set-1, cardiac massage was applied to all animals followed by defibrillation, which was repeated ≤3 times (Set-2). ROSC after Set-1 was 8% in Group A, 82% in Group B and 82% in Group C, whereas that after Set-2 was 62% in Group A, 100% in Group B and 82% in Group C. Each animal with ROSC in Groups A (n=8) and B (n=11) showed sinus rhythm, whereas those in Group C (n=9) had sinus rhythm (n=5), atrial fibrillation (n=1), accelerated idioventricular rhythm (n=2) and atrioventricular block (n=1). Post ROSC heart rate and mean arterial pressure were significantly lower in Group C. CONCLUSIONS Cardiac massage increased the likelihood of ROSC vs. rapid defibrillation, but β-blocker pretreatment may worsen hemodynamics and electrical stability after ROSC.

Abstract
In order to bridge the gap of information between the in silico model and human subjects, we evaluated torsadogenic risk of cisapride, dl-sotalol, bepridil and verapamil selected from 12 training compounds in the comprehensive in vitro proarrhythmia assay using the chronic atrioventricular block monkeys. Cisapride (0, 1, and 5 mg/kg, n = 5 for each dose), dl-sotalol (0, 1, 3, and 10 mg/kg, n = 5 for each dose), bepridil (0, 10, and 100 mg/kg, n = 4 for each dose), verapamil (0, 1.5, 15, and 75 mg/kg, n = 4 for each dose) were orally administered to the monkeys in conscious state. Five mg/kg of cisapride, 1, 3, and 10 mg/kg of dl-sotalol and 100 mg/kg of bepridil prolonged ΔΔQTcF, which was not observed by verapamil. Torsade de pointes was induced by 5 mg/kg of cisapride in 2 out of 5 animals, by 10 mg/kg of dl-sotalol in 5 out of 5 and by 100 mg/kg of bepridil in 2 out of 4, which was not induced by verapamil. These torsadogenic doses were normalized by their maximum clinical daily ones to estimate torsadogenic risk. The order of risk was dl-sotalol >bepridil ≥cisapride >verapamil in our study. Since the order was bepridil ≥dl-sotalol >cisapride >verapamil in comprehensive in vitro proarrhythmia assay (CiPA) in silico mechanistic model validation, sympathetic regulation on the heart may play a pivotal role in the onset of torsade de pointes in vivo.

Abstract
We studied the impact of mechanically regulated, expiratory negative airway pressure (ENAP) ventilation on pulmonary and systemic circulation including its mechanisms and potential applications. Microminipigs weighing about 10 kg were anesthetized (n = 5). First, hemodynamic variables were evaluated without and with ENAP to approximately -16 cmH2O. ENAP significantly increased heart rate and cardiac output, but decreased right atrial, pulmonary arterial and pulmonary capillary wedge pressures. Second, the evaluation was repeated following pharmacological adrenergic blockade, modestly blunting ENAP effects. Third, fluvoxamine (10 mg/kg) was intravenously administered to intentionally induce cardiovascular collapse in the presence of adrenergic blockade. ENAP was started when systolic pressure was < 40 mmHg in the animals assigned to ENAP treatment-group. Fluvoxamine induced cardiovascular collapse within 4 out of 5 animals. ENAP increased systolic pressure to > 50 mmHg (n = 2): both animals fully recovered without neurological deficit, whereas without ENAP both animals died of cardiac arrest (n = 2). ENAP may become an innovative treatment for drug-induced cardiovascular collapse.

Abstract
Oseltamivir has been shown to prolong the atrial conduction time and effective refractory period, and to suppress the onset of burst pacing-induced atrial fibrillation in vitro. To better predict its potential clinical benefit as an anti-atrial fibrillatory drug, we performed translational studies by assessing in vivo anti-atrial fibrillatory effect along with in vivo and in vitro electropharmacological analyses. Oseltamivir in intravenous doses of 3 (n = 6) and 30 mg/kg (n = 7) was administered in conscious state to the persistent atrial fibrillation model dogs to confirm its anti-atrial fibrillatory action. The model was prepared by tachypacing to the atria of chronic atrioventricular block dogs for > 6 weeks. Next, oseltamivir in doses of 0.3, 3 and 30 mg/kg was intravenously administered to the halothane-anesthetized intact dogs to analyze its in vivo electrophysiological actions (n = 4). Finally, its in vitro effects of 10–1,000 μM on IK,ACh, IKur, IKr, INa and ICaL were analyzed by using cell lines stably expressing Kir3.1/3.4, KV1.5, hERG, NaV1.5 or CaV1.2, respectively (n = 3 for IK,ACh and IKr or n = 6 for IKr, INa and ICaL). Oseltamivir in doses of 3 and 30 mg/kg terminated the atrial fibrillation in 1 out of 6 and in 6 out of 7 atrial fibrillation model dogs, respectively without inducing any lethal ventricular arrhythmia. Its 3 and 30 mg/kg delayed inter-atrial conduction in a frequency-dependent manner, whereas they prolonged atrial effective refractory period in a reverse frequency-dependent manner in the intact dogs. The current assay indicated that IC50 values for IK,ACh and IKr were 160 and 231 μM, respectively, but 1,000 µM inhibited INa, ICaL and IKur by 22, 19 and 13%, respectively. The extent of INa blockade was enhanced at faster beating rate and more depolarized resting membrane potential. Oseltamivir effectively terminated the persistent atrial fibrillation, which may be largely due to the prolongation of the atrial effective refractory period and inter-atrial conduction time induced by IK,ACh and IKr inhibitions along with INa suppression. Thus, oseltamivir can exert a powerful anti-atrial fibrillatory action through its ideal multi-channel blocking property; and oseltamivir would become a promising seed compound for developing efficacious and safe anti-atrial fibrillatory drugs.

Abstract
To characterize in vivo anti-atrial fibrillatory potential and pharmacological safety profile of ranolazine having INa,L plus IKr inhibitory actions in comparison with those of clinically available anti-atrial fibrillatory drugs; namely, dronedarone, amiodarone, bepridil and dl-sotalol in our previous studies, ranolazine dihydrochloride in sub-therapeutic (0.3 mg/kg) and supra-therapeutic (3 mg/kg) doses was intravenously infused over 10 min to the halothane-anesthetized dogs (n = 5). The low dose increased the heart rate, cardiac output and atrioventricular conduction velocity possibly via vasodilator action-induced, reflex-mediated increase of adrenergic tone. Meanwhile, the high dose decreased the heart rate, ventricular contraction, cardiac output and mean blood pressure, indicating that drug-induced direct actions may exceed the reflex-mediated compensation. In addition, it prolonged the atrial and ventricular effective refractory periods, of which potency and selectivity for the former were less great compared with those of the clinically-available drugs. Moreover, it did not alter the ventricular early repolarization period in vivo, but prolonged the late repolarization with minimal risk for re-entrant arrhythmias. These in vivo findings of ranolazine suggest that INa,L suppression may attenuate IKr inhibition-associated prolongation of early repolarization in the presence of reflex-mediated increase of adrenergic tone. Thus, ranolazine alone may be less promising as an anti-atrial fibrillatory drug, but its potential risk for inducing torsade de pointes will be small. These information can be used as a guide to predict the utility and adverse effects of anti-atrial fibrillatory drugs having multi-channel modulatory action.

Abstract
Poyendarone, a deuterated analogue of dronedarone, is expected to reduce the onset of cardiovascular adverse events of dronedarone, including congestive heart failure and excessive QT-interval prolongation. Since information is still lacking on the anti-atrial fibrillatory property of poyendarone, we assessed it along with effects on the inter-atrial conduction time (IACT) and atrial effective refractory period (AERP) using the canine paroxysmal atrial fibrillation model. Poyendarone hydrochloride (n = 4) and dronedarone hydrochloride (n = 4) in intravenous doses of 0.3 and 3 mg/kg/30 s were cumulatively administered. Poyendarone hardly altered sinoatrial rate, but dronedarone decreased it in a dose-related manner, whereas both drugs slightly but significantly reduced idioventricular rate. Poyendarone shortened duration of burst pacing-induced atrial fibrillation, whereas such abbreviation was not observed by dronedarone. Poyendarone and dronedarone similarly prolonged IACT in a frequency-dependent manner, indicating that their INa inhibitory actions may be similar. The high dose of poyendarone prolonged AERP in a reverse frequency-dependent manner, extent of which at basic pacing cycle lengths of 300 and 400 ms was comparable to that of dronedarone. However, the extent at a basic pacing cycle length of 200 ms was tended to be greater in poyendarone than in dronedarone, suggesting greater IKs inhibitory action of poyendarone. The deuteration of dronedarone attenuated the inhibition of sinus automaticity and prolonged the AERP with keeping the blood pressure and ventricular rate stable. Thus, poyendarone may have both more potent anti-atrial fibrillatory action and wider cardiovascular safety margin than dronedarone.

Abstract
We assessed concentration-dependent effects of halothane or isoflurane inhalation on the electrocardiographic and hemodynamic variables using a cross-over design in intact beagle dogs (n = 4). Elevation of inhaled halothane from 1.0% to 2.0% or isoflurane from 1.5% to 2.5% decreased the mean blood pressure and prolonged the QRS width without significantly altering the heart rate, PR interval or QT interval. However, the observed changes disappeared after regressions of both anesthetic conditions to their initial settings. These results indicate that hypotension-induced, reflex-mediated increase of sympathetic tone may have counterbalanced the direct negative chronotropic, dromotropic and repolarization slowing effects of the anesthetics.

Abstract
Lamotrigine has been used for patients with epilepsy and/or bipolar disorder, overdose of which induced the hypotension, elevation of the atrial pacing threshold, cardiac conduction delay, wide complex tachycardia, cardiac arrest and Brugada-like electrocardiographic pattern. To clarify how lamotrigine induces those cardiovascular adverse events, we simultaneously assessed its cardiohemodynamic and electrophysiological effects using the halothane-anesthetized dogs (n = 4). Lamotrigine was intravenously administered in doses of 0.1, 1 and 10 mg/kg/10 min under the monitoring of cardiovascular variables, possibly providing subtherapeutic to supratherapeutic plasma concentrations. The low or middle dose of lamotrigine did not alter any of the variables. The high dose significantly delayed the intra-atrial and intra-ventricular conductions in addition to the prolongation of ventricular effective refractory period, whereas no significant change was detected in the other variables. Lamotrigine by itself has relatively wide safety margin for cardiohemodynamics, indicating that clinically reported hypotension may not be induced through its direct action on the resistance arterioles or capacitance venules. The electrophysiological effects suggested that lamotrigine can inhibit Na+ channel in the in situ hearts. This finding may partly explain the onset mechanism of lamotrigine-associated cardiac adverse events in the clinical cases. In addition, elevation of J wave was induced in half of the animals, suggesting that lamotrigine may have some potential to unmask Brugada electrocardiographic genotype in susceptible patients.

Abstract
While vanoxerine (GBR-12909) is a synaptosomal dopamine uptake inhibitor, it also suppresses IKr, INa and ICa,L in vitro. Based on these profiles on ionic currents, vanoxerine has been developed as a candidate compound for treating atrial fibrillation. To investigate electropharmacological profiles, vanoxerine dihydrochloride was intravenously administered at 0.03 and 0.3 mg/kg to halothane-anesthetized dogs (n = 4), possibly providing subtherapeutic and therapeutic concentrations, respectively. The low dose increased the heart rate and cardiac output, whereas it prolonged the ventricular refractoriness. The high dose decreased the heart rate but increased the total peripheral vascular resistance, whereas it delayed the ventricular repolarization and increased the atrial refractoriness in addition to further enhancing the ventricular refractoriness. The extent of increase in the refractoriness in the atrium was 0.8 times of that in the ventricle. The high dose also prolonged the early and late repolarization periods of the ventricle as well as the terminal repolarization period. Meanwhile, no significant change was detected in the mean blood pressure, ventricular contraction, preload to the left ventricle, or the intra-atrial, intra-ventricular or atrioventricular conductions. The high dose can be considered to inhibit IKr, but it may not suppress INa or ICa in the in situ heart, partly explaining its poor atrial selectivity for increasing refractoriness. The prolongation of early repolarization period may reflect enhancement of net inward current, providing potential risk for intracellular Ca2+ overload. Thus, vanoxerine may provide both trigger and substrate toward torsade de pointes, which would make the drug less promising as an anti-atrial fibrillatory drug.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors are known to clinically induce various types of cardiovascular adverse events; however, it is still difficult to predict them at preclinical stage. In order to explore how to better predict such drug-induced cardiovascular adverse events, we tried to develop a new protocol by assessing acute electrophysiological, cardiohemodynamic, and cytotoxic effects of dasatinib in vivo and in vitro. Dasatinib at 0.03 and 0.3 mg/kg was intravenously administered to the halothane-anesthetized dogs for 10 min with an interval of 20 min between the dosing (n = 4). Meanwhile, that at 0.1, 0.3, and 1 μM was cumulatively applied to the human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) (n = 7). In the dogs, the low and high doses provided peak plasma concentrations of 40 ± 5 (0.08) and 615 ± 38 ng/mL (1.26 μM), respectively. The low dose decreased the heart rate, impaired the left ventricular mechanical function, and prolonged the ventricular effective refractory period. The high dose prolonged the repolarization period, induced hemorrhagic tendency, and increased plasma cardiac troponin I level in addition to enhancement of the changes observed after the low dose, whereas it neither affected the cardiac conduction nor induced ventricular arrhythmias. In the hiPSC-CMs, dasatinib prolonged the repolarization and refractory periods like in dogs, while it did not induce apoptotic or necrotic process, but that it increased the conduction speed. Clinically observed major cardiovascular adverse events of dasatinib were observed qualitatively by currently proposed assay protocol, which may become a useful guide for predicting the cardiotoxicity of new tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Abstract
We compared dl-sotalol-induced electrocardiographic responses in intact dogs using a repeated-measures design among 1% halothane anesthesia, 1.5% isoflurane anesthesia with nitrous oxide (N2O), and conscious state to clarify influences of the anesthetics (n = 4). Basal PR interval was longer in halothane than either in isoflurane with N2O or in conscious state, reflecting sympathetic nerve suppression for the atrioventricular node by halothane. Both anesthetics exhibited longer basal QRS width than conscious state, suggesting their ventricular INa inhibition. Also, both anesthetics showed longer basal QT interval, QTcF and Tpeak-Tend than conscious state, indicating their ventricular IKr inhibition. Meanwhile, dl-sotalol prolonged PR interval similarly in isoflurane with N2O and in conscious state, which was less great in halothane, suggesting further sympathetic nerve suppression for the atrioventricular node might be limited in halothane. dl-Sotalol prolonged QT interval and QTcF >3 times greater in either of the anesthetics than in conscious state; moreover, dl-sotalol prolonged Tpeak-Tend similarly in both anesthetics, but hardly altered it in conscious state; indicating isoflurane with N2O as well as halothane may have reduced the repolarization reserve to increase the sensitivity of ventricle toward IKr suppression. Thus, isoflurane with nitrous oxide could be useful for in vivo IKr assay like halothane.

Abstract
Contractility of the human heart increases as its beating rate is elevated, so-called positive force-frequency relationship; however, human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have been reported to exert a negative force-frequency relationship. We tested the hypothesis that the regulation of motion directions by electrical pacing and/or oxygen supply may improve the electro-mechanical properties of hiPSC-CMs monolayers. To better evaluate the spatial and temporal relationship between electrical excitation and contractile motion, we simultaneously observed the field potential and motion vector of hiPSC-CMs sheets. Under spontaneous contraction, although an electrical excitation originating from a region propagated unidirectionally over the cell sheet, contraction wave started from multiple sites, and relaxation wave was initiated from a geometric center of hiPSC-CMs sheet. During electrical pacing, contraction and relaxation waves were propagated from the stimulated site. Interestingly, the maximum contraction speed was more increased when the hiPSC-CMs sheet was stimulated at an area relaxation initiated under spontaneous condition. Furthermore, motion vector analysis demonstrated that "positive contraction velocity-frequency relationship" in contraction and "frequency-dependent enhancement of relaxation" were produced in the cell sheet by optimizing the direction and order of the contractile motion with pacing at the relaxation-initiating area. A close analysis of motion vectors along with field potential recording demonstrated that relaxation process consists of fast and slow phases, and suggest that intracellular Ca2+ dynamics may be closely related to functions of Ca2+-ATPase pump and Na+-Ca2+ exchangers. Namely, the slow relaxation phase occurred after the second peak of field potential, suggesting that the slow phase may be associated with extrusion of Ca2+ by Na+-Ca2+ exchangers during repolarization. Increase of oxygen concentration from 20 to 95% as well as β-adrenergic stimulation with isoproterenol accelerated the fast relaxation, suggesting that it could depend on Ca2+ uptake via Ca2+-ATPase during the depolarization phase. The ratio of maximum contraction speed to field potential duration was increased by the β-adrenergic stimulation, indicating the elevated contraction efficiency per Ca2+-influx. Thus, these findings revealed potential ability of conventional monolayers of hiPSC-CMs, which will help apply them to translational study filling the gap between physiological as well as pharmacological studies and clinical practice.

Abstract
AVE0118, an inhibitor of IKur, Ito and IK,ACh, was in the drug pipeline for atrial fibrillation. To investigate the limitation of AVE0118 as an anti-atrial fibrillatory drug, we studied its electropharmacological effects particularly focusing on the anti-atrial fibrillatory action as reverse translational research. We adopted the chronic atrioventricular block beagle dogs (n = 4), having a pathophysiology of bradycardia-associated, volume overload-induced chronic heart failure, in which the atrial fibrillation was induced by 10 s of burst pacing on atrial septum. AVE0118 in doses of 0.24 and 1.2 mg/kg, i.v. over 10 min hardly altered electrophysiological variables. Meanwhile, AVE0118 in a dose of 6 mg/kg, i.v. over 10 min delayed the inter-atrial conduction in a frequency-dependent manner and prolonged the atrial effective refractory period in a reverse frequency-dependent manner, whereas it did not significantly alter the duration of atrial fibrillation or its cycle length. The increment of atrial effective refractory period was 3.3 times greater compared with that of ventricular one at a basic cycle length of 400 ms. Torsade de pointes was not induced during the experimental period. Thus, AVE0118 may possess a favorable cardiac safety pharmacological profile, but its weak anti-atrial fibrillatory effect would indicate the limitation of atrial repolarization-delaying agents for suppressing atrial fibrillation.

Abstract
Since microminipig is becoming attractive model for various cardiac electropharmacological applications, which may meet consideration of 3Rs. We characterized microminipigs by analyzing how multi-ionic channel inhibitor bepridil may affect their in situ hearts in comparison with dogs. Bepridil in doses of 0.3 and 3.0 mg/kg were intravenously administered over 10 min under halothane anesthesia (n = 4). Microminipigs may be less sensitive for ICaT inhibition of bepridil, whereas they are more responsive to INa, IKr and IKs suppression than dogs. This information would help predict cardiovascular effects of a drug in patients with the remodeled hearts having similar electrophysiological profile to microminipigs.

Abstract
Torsade de pointes (TdP) occurred in a long QT syndrome type 3 (LQT3) patient after switching perospirone to blonanserin. We studied how their electropharmacological effects had induced TdP in the LQT3 patient. Perospirone hydrochloride (n = 4) or blonanserin (n = 4) of 0.01, 0.1, and 1 mg/kg, i.v. was cumulatively administered to the halothane-anesthetized dogs over 10 min. The low dose of perospirone decreased total peripheral vascular resistance, but increased heart rate and cardiac output, facilitated atrioventricular conduction, and prolonged J-Tpeakc. The middle dose decreased mean blood pressure and prolonged repolarization period, in addition to those observed after the low dose. The high dose further decreased mean blood pressure with the reduction of total peripheral vascular resistance; however, it did not increase heart rate or cardiac output. It tended to delay atrioventricular conduction and further delayed repolarization with the prolongation of Tpeak-Tend, whereas J-Tpeakc returned to its baseline level. Meanwhile, each dose of blonanserin decreased total peripheral vascular resistance, but increased heart rate, cardiac output and cardiac contractility in a dose-related manner. J-Tpeakc was prolonged by each dose, but Tpeak-Tend was shortened by the middle and high doses. These results indicate that perospirone and blonanserin may cause the hypotension-induced, reflex-mediated increase of sympathetic tone, leading to the increase of inward Ca2+ current in the heart except that the high dose of perospirone reversed them. Thus, blonanserin may have more potential to produce intracellular Ca2+ overload triggering early afterdepolarization than perospirone, which might explain the onset of TdP in the LQT3 patient.

Abstract
Correction formulae of QT interval were developed for the halothane-anesthetized microminipigs by adopting atrial pacing (n=5), which were compared with Bazett's and Fridericia's formulae for humans, and Van de Water's one for dogs. The correction formulae: QTc=QT-0.2072 (RR-750) as linear and QTc=QT/(RR/750)0.4007 as non-linear equations, were developed for microminipigs. These formulae can better correct the QT interval of the microminipigs compared with each of the conventional ones for humans and dogs. Moreover, analysis of the slope constant α values indicates that the rate-dependent change in the ventricular repolarization period of microminipig may better mimic that of humans than that of dogs.

Abstract
We analyzed how the enhancement of net sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ uptake may affect cardiac electrophysiological properties in vivo by using caldaret which can decrease SR diastolic Ca2+ leak, enhance SR Ca2+ reuptake and inhibit reverse-mode Na+/Ca2+ exchanger. Caldaret in doses of 0.5, 5 and 50 μg/kg was intravenously administered over 10 min to the halothane-anesthetized beagle dogs (n = 5), attaining pharmacologically active plasma concentration. The low and middle doses of caldaret increased the ventricular contraction, which could be explained by its on-target pharmacological activities. The high dose enhanced the sinus automaticity followed by its suppression in addition to the increase of the total peripheral resistance, which may be unfavorable for treating diastolic heart failure. The low and middle doses enhanced the atrioventricular conduction, which may have some potential for predisposing the atria to the onset of atrial fibrillation via an induction of mitral and/or tricuspid regurgitation. The middle and high doses of caldaret prolonged the ventricular effective refractory period without altering the intraventricular conduction or repolarization period, which may prevent the onset of ventricular arrhythmias. Thus, modulation of intracellular Ca2+ handling by caldaret can induce not only inotropic effect, but also various electrophysiological actions on the in situ heart.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Several rabbit proarrhythmia models have been developed using genetic or pharmacological methods to suppress the slow component of delayed rectifier K+ currents in the ventricle, leading to reduction of the repolarization reserve. Here we have characterized a novel rabbit in vivo proarrhythmia model with severe bradycardia caused by acute atrioventricular block (AVB). EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Bradycardia was induced in isoflurane-anaesthetized rabbits by inducing AVB with catheter ablation, and the ventricle was electrically driven at 60 beats min-1 throughout the experiment except when extrasystoles appeared. We assessed the effects of two antiarrhythmics, two quinolone antibiotics and one antipsychotic drug, which were chosen as positive drugs (dofetilide, sparfloxacin and haloperidol) and negative drugs (amiodarone and moxifloxacin) for induction of Torsades de Pointes (TdP). KEY RESULTS In our model, TdP arrhythmias appeared with high reproducibility after i.v. dofetilide (10-100 μg·kg-1 ) in five out of six rabbits, sparfloxacin (30 mg·kg-1 ) in three out of six rabbits and haloperidol (0.3-3 mg·kg-1 ) in two out of six rabbits. The lethal arrhythmias repeatedly appeared and were accompanied with prolongation of the QT interval and early afterdepolarization-like phenomena. Neither amiodarone (0.3-10 mg·kg-1 , n = 6) nor moxifloxacin (3-30 mg·kg-1 , n = 6) induced such arrhythmias, even when QT intervals were prolonged. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS These results suggest that our model of the unremodelled and bradycardic heart of the anaesthetized rabbit is a useful test system for the detection of drug-induced TdP arrhythmias.
