Abstract
The abnormally regulated release of Ca2+ from an intracellular Ca2+ store, the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), is the mechanism underlying contractile and relaxation dysfunctions in heart failure (HF). According to recent reports, protein kinase A (PKA)-mediated hyperphosphorylation of ryanodine receptor (RyR) in the SR has been shown to cause the dissociation of FK506 binding protein (FKBP) 12.6 from the RyR in heart failure. This causes an abnormal Ca2+ leak through the Ca2+ channel located in the RyR, leading to an increase in the cytosolic Ca2+ during diastole, prolongation of the Ca2+ transient, and delayed/slowed diastolic Ca2+ re-uptake. More recently, a considerable number of disease-linked mutations in the RyR have been reported in patients with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) or arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia type 2. An analysis of the disposition of these mutation sites within well-defined domains of the RyR polypeptide chain has led to the new concept that interdomain interactions among these domains play a critical role in channel regulation, and an altered domain interaction causes channel dysfunction in the failing heart. The knowledge gained from the recent literature concerning the critical proteins and the changes in their properties under pathological conditions has brought us to a better position to develop new pharmacological or genetic strategies for the treatment of heart failure or cardiac arrhythmia. A considerable body of evidence reviewed here indicates that abnormal RyR function plays an important role in the pathogenesis of heart failure. This review also covers some controversial issues in the literature concerning the involvement of phosphorylation and FKBP12.6.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES/BACKGROUND Studies from several laboratories have implicated intracellular Ca(2+) dynamics in the modulation of electrical activity. We have reported that abnormal Ca(2+) wave activity is the underlying cause of afterdepolarization-induced electrical activity in subendocardial Purkinje cells that survive in the 48-hour infarcted canine heart. These cells form the focus of arrhythmias at this time postcoronary artery occlusion. METHODS We studied the effects of agonists and antagonists on the abnormal Ca(2+) release activity of Purkinje cell aggregates dispersed from the subendocardium 48 hours postcoronary artery occlusion (IZPCs). Studies were completed using epifluorescent microscopy of Fluo-3 loaded Purkinje cells. RESULTS Similar to our previous report, highly frequent traveling micro Ca(2+) transients (muCaiTs) and cell-wide Ca(2+) waves were seen in IZPCs in the absence of any drug. Isoproterenol (ISO) increased muCaiTs and cell-wide Ca(2+) waves in Purkinje cells dispersed from the normal heart (NZPCs). In IZPCs, ISO increased cell-wide wave frequency but had no effect on the already highly frequent micro Ca(2+) wave transient activity, suggesting that ISO lowers the threshold of cell-wide generators responding to micro Ca(2+) transients. Drugs that block inward sodium or calcium currents (verapamil, tetrodotoxin) had no effect on Ca(2+) activity in Purkinje cells. Antagonists of intracellular Ca(2+) release channels [ryanodine, JTV519(K201)] greatly suppressed spontaneous Ca(2+) release events in IZPCs. 2APB, an agent that blocks IP(3) receptors, greatly reduced the frequency of Ca(2+) events in IZPCs. CONCLUSIONS In arrhythmogenic Purkinje cells that survive in the infarcted heart, agents that block or inhibit intracellular Ca(2+) release channel activity reduced Ca(2+) waves and could be antiarrhythmic.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Effect of JTV-519 on AF. INTRODUCTION A new cardioprotective drug, JTV-519, blocks Na+ current and inwardly rectifying K+ current and inhibits Ca2+ current. However, its role in atrial electrophysiology is unknown. We investigated the antiarrhythmic effects of JTV-519 on atrial fibrillation/flutter in the canine sterile pericarditis model. METHODS AND RESULTS In nine dogs with sterile pericarditis, 38 episodes of sustained (>30 sec) atrial fibrillation (8 dogs) and 24 episodes of sustained atrial flutter (7 dogs) were induced by rapid atrial pacing. When atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter was sustained >15 minutes, it was cardioverted and reinduced. The inducibility of atrial fibrillation/flutter, the atrial effective refractory period, and the intra-atrial conduction time were compared before and after the continuous infusion of JTV-519 (0.03 mg/kg/min). JTV-519 significantly decreased the mean number of sustained atrial fibrillation episodes (from 4.2 +/- 2.9 to 0 +/- 0, P < 0.01). In contrast, atrial flutter was still inducible in 4 dogs after JTV-519 (from 2.7 +/- 2.5 to 1.6 +/- 2.1, P = NS). JTV-519 significantly prolonged effective refractory period (from 123 +/- 18 to 143 +/- 14 msec, from 127 +/- 18 to 151 +/- 12 msec, and from 132 +/- 13 to 159 +/- 9 msec at basic cycle lengths of 200, 300, and 400 msec, respectively, P < 0.01), but it did not affect the intra-atrial conduction time (from 47 +/- 11 msec to 48 +/- 11 msec, P = NS). CONCLUSION JTV-519 had significant protective effects on atrial fibrillation in the canine sterile pericarditis model, mainly by increasing effective refractory period, suggesting that it may have potential as a novel antiarrhythmic agent for atrial fibrillation.

Abstract
Defective interaction between FKBP12.6 and ryanodine receptors (RyR) is a possible cause of cardiac dysfunction in heart failure (HF). Here, we assess whether the new cardioprotective agent JTV519 can correct it in tachycardia-induced HF. HF was induced in dogs by 4-wk rapid ventricular pacing, and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was isolated from left ventricular muscles. In failing SR, JTV519 increased the rate of Ca(2+) release and [(3)H]ryanodine binding. RyR were then labeled in a site-directed fashion with the fluorescent conformational probe methylcoumarin acetamide. In failing SR, the polylysine induced a rapid change in methylcoumarin acetamide fluorescence, presumably because the channel opening preceding the Ca(2+) release was smaller than in normal SR (consistent with a decreased rate of Ca(2+) release in failing SR), and JTV519 increased it. In conclusion, JTV519, a new 1,4-benzothiazepine derivative, corrected the defective channel gating in RyR (increase in both the rapid conformational change and the subsequent Ca(2+) release rate) in HF.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The development of heart failure is tightly correlated with a decrease in the stoichiometric ratio for FKBP12.6 binding to the ryanodine receptor (RyR) in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). We report that a new drug, the 1,4-benzothiazepine derivative JTV519, reverses this pathogenic process. JTV519 is known to have a protective effect against Ca2+ overload-induced myocardial injury. METHODS AND RESULTS Heart failure was produced by 4 weeks of rapid right ventricular pacing, with or without JTV519; SR were then isolated from dog left ventricular (LV) muscles. First, in JTV519-treated dogs, no signs of heart failure were observed after 4 weeks of chronic right ventricular pacing, LV systolic and diastolic functions were largely preserved, and LV remodeling was prevented. Second, JTV519 acutely inhibited both the FK506-induced Ca2+ leak from RyR in normal SR and the spontaneous Ca2+ leak in failing SR. Third, there was no abnormal Ca2+ leak in SR vesicles isolated from JTV519-treated hearts. Fourth, in JTV519-treated hearts, both the stoichiometry of FKBP12.6 binding to RyR and the amount of RyR-bound FKBP12.6 were restored toward the values seen in normal SR. Fifth, in JTV519-untreated hearts, RyR was PKA-hyperphosphorylated, whereas it was reversed in JTV519-treated hearts, returning the channel phosphorylation toward the levels seen in normal hearts. CONCLUSIONS During the development of experimental heart failure, JTV519 prevented the amount of RyR-bound FKBP12.6 from decreasing. This in turn reduced the abnormal Ca2+ leak through the RyR, prevented LV remodeling, and led to less severe heart failure.

Abstract
Annexins are widely expressed Ca(2+)-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins with poorly understood physiological roles. Proposed functions include Ca(2+) channel activity and vesicle trafficking, but neither have been proven in vivo. Here we used targeted gene disruption to generate B-lymphocytes lacking annexin 5 (Anx5) expression and show that this results in reduced susceptibility to a range of apoptotic stimuli. By comparison B-lymphocytes lacking annexin 2 (Anx2) showed no such resistance, providing evidence that this effect is specific to loss of Anx5. The defect in the ANX5(-/-) cells occurs early in the apoptotic program before nuclear condensation, caspase 3 activation, and cell shrinkage, but downstream of an initial Ca(2+) influx. Only UVA/B irradiation induced similar levels of apoptosis in wild-type and ANX5(-/-) cells. Unexpectedly, ANX5(-/-) cells permeabilized in vitro also failed to release mitochondrial cytochrome C, suggesting a possible mechanism for their resistance to apoptosis. These findings demonstrate a role for Anx5 in determining the susceptibility of B-lymphocytes to apoptosis.

Abstract
Biomineralization is a highly regulated process that plays a major role during the development of skeletal tissues. Despite its obvious importance, little is known about its regulation. Previously, it has been demonstrated that retinoic acid (RA) stimulates terminal differentiation and mineralization of growth plate chondrocytes (Iwamoto, M., I.M. Shapiro, K. Yagumi, A.L. Boskey, P.S. Leboy, S.L. Adams, and M. Pacifici. 1993. Exp. Cell Res. 207:413-420). In this study, we provide evidence that RA treatment of growth plate chondrocytes caused a series of events eventually leading to mineralization of these cultures: increase in cytosolic calcium concentration, followed by up-regulation of annexin II, V, and VI gene expression, and release of annexin II-, V-, VI- and alkaline phosphatase-containing matrix vesicles. Cotreatment of growth plate chondrocytes with RA and BAPTA-AM, a cell permeable Ca2+ chelator, inhibited the up-regulation of annexin gene expression and mineralization of these cultures. Interestingly, only matrix vesicles isolated from RA-treated cells that contained annexins, were able to take up Ca2+ and mineralize, whereas vesicles isolated from untreated or RA/BAPTA-treated cells, that contained no or only little annexins were not able to take up Ca2+ and mineralize. Cotreatment of chondrocytes with RA and EDTA revealed that increases in the cytosolic calcium concentration were due to influx of extracellular calcium. Interestingly, the novel 1,4-benzothiazepine derivative K-201, a specific annexin Ca2+ channel blocker, or antibodies specific for annexin II, V, or VI inhibited the increases in cytosolic calcium concentration in RA-treated chondrocytes. These findings indicate that annexins II, V, and VI form Ca2+ channels in the plasma membrane of terminally differentiated growth plate chondrocytes and mediate Ca2+ influx into these cells. The resulting increased cytosolic calcium concentration leads to a further up-regulation of annexin II, V, and VI gene expression, the release of annexin II-, V-, VI- and alkaline phosphatase-containing matrix vesicles, and the initiation of mineralization by these vesicles.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of a novel cardioprotective agent, JTV-519, with or without a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, L-NAME, on the myocardial metabolism and contraction during ischemia and reperfusion by means of phosphorus 31-nuclear magnetic resonance (31P-NMR) in Langendorff rabbit hearts. After 20 min normothermic global ischemia, postischemic reperfusion was carried out for 30 min. JTV-519 was administered from 40 min prior to the global ischemia. Twenty-one hearts were divided into three experimental groups consisting of 7 hearts each: a control group, a JTV-519 group perfused with JTV-519, and a JTV-519+L-NAME group perfused with a combination of JTV-519 and L-NAME. During ischemia, the JTV-519 group showed a significant inhibition of the decrease in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) compared with both the control and JTV-519+L-NAME groups (p<0.01); the levels of ATP were 20+/-6, 56+/-9, and 40+/-4% in the control group, JTV-519 group, and JTV-519+L-NAME group, respectively. Both the JTV-519 group and JTV-519+L-NAME group showed a significant inhibition of the increase in left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) compared with the control group (p<0.01). After postischemic reperfusion, the JTV-519 group again showed a significant improvement of ATP as compared with both the control and JTV-519+L-NAME groups (p<0.01); the ATP levels were 52+/-4, 82+/-3, and 64+/-3% in the control group, JTV-519 group, and JTV-519+L-NAME group. In conclusion, JTV-519 has a significant beneficial effect on myocardial energy metabolism during both ischemia and reperfusion. This beneficial effect was dependent on NO synthase. Furthermore, JTV-519 showed significant potential for improving myocardial relaxation during ischemia. This effect was not dependent on NO synthase.

Abstract
Protein kinase C (PKC) is a superfamily of lipid-dependent protein Ser/Thr kinases consisting of at least 10 isozymes. The present article summarizes the papers presented at the congress symposium of the 74th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Pharmacological Society, in which six special topics regarding PKC isozyme-dependent cellular functions and pathological disorders were discussed. Using a GFP-tagged PKC expression technique, each PKC subtype was suggested to vary its targeting-site in each cell in response to each stimulus and that the targeting to the specific compartment is necessary for the specific cellular responses (NS). A cardioprotective agent, JTV519, was shown to attenuate post-ischemic myocardial injury by mimicking ischemic preconditioning through specific activation of PKC delta (YK). Using an antisense technique, PKC alpha and delta/epsilon were shown to be necessary for gene expression of inducible NO synthase by interleukin-1, one of the proinflammatory cytokines, by a stimulated transactivation of NF-kappa B (TH). In canine cerebral artery, PKC delta and PKC alpha play important roles in the development and the maintenance of vasospasm induced by subarachnoid hemorrhage, respectively (SN); and stretch-induced MLC20 phosphorylation involves MLCK and PKC alpha but not PKC delta activities facilitated by inactivation of myosin phosphatase through Rho activity (KO & KN). To clarify the role of PKC isozymes in insulin resistance, the effects of insulin on glucose uptake, PKC isozyme activation and PI3K activation in rat adipocytes were shown and then platelet PKC beta activation in diabetic patients with various diabetic complications, including diabetic retinopathy, was reported (TI). These studies will promisingly open the way to a new era for the development of novel drugs controlling an isozyme-specific activity of the protein kinase C superfamily and improvement in the knowledge about the role of the protein kinase in health and disease.

Abstract
The 1,4-benzothiazepine derivative JTV-519 is a new type of calcium ion channel modulator. We examined the modulatory effect of JTV-519 on the antitumor activity of several platinum compounds (cisplatin, carboplatin, and nedaplatin) in a human cancer cell line resistant to cisplatin (PC-14 / CDDP) in vitro. PC-14 / CDDP cells showed 8-fold resistance to cisplatin compared with the parental PC-14 cells as determined by dye formation [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, MTT] assay. In PC-14 / CDDP, but not PC-14 cells, augmentation of cytotoxicity was observed when a nontoxic concentration (10 mM) of JTV-519 was combined with the platinum compounds. Increased intracellular cisplatin accumulation was observed in PC-14 / CDDP cells in the presence of JTV-519 as measured by atomic absorption assay. Therefore, increased cisplatin accumulation was considered to be a possible mechanism underlying the reversing effect of JTV-519 on cisplatin resistance. These results suggest that JTV-519 is a potent agent reversing cisplatin resistance.

Abstract
1. We investigated the effects of JTV-519 (4-[3-(4-benzylpiperidin-1-yl)propionyl]-7-methoxy-2,3,4, 5-tetrahydro-1,4-benzothiazepine monohydrochloride), a novel cardioprotective drug, on the repolarizing K(+) currents in guinea-pig atrial cells by use of patch-clamp techniques. We also evaluated the effects of JTV-519 on experimental atrial fibrillation (AF) in isolated guinea-pig hearts. 2. In atrial cells stimulated at 0.2 Hz, JTV-519 in concentrations of 0.3 and 1 microM slightly prolonged the action potential duration (APD). The drug also reversed the action potential shortening induced by the muscarinic agonist carbachol in a concentration-dependent manner. 3. The muscarinic acetylcholine receptor-operated K(+) current (I(K.ACh)) was activated by the extracellular application of carbachol (1 microM), adenosine (10 microM) or by the intracellular loading of GTP gamma S (100 microM). JTV-519 inhibited the carbachol-, adenosine- and GTP gamma S-induced I(K.ACh) with the IC(50) values of 0.12, 2.29 and 2.42 microM, respectively, suggesting that the drug may inhibit I(K.ACh) mainly by blocking the muscarinic receptors. 4. JTV-519 (1 microM) inhibited the delayed rectifier K(+) current (I(K)). Electrophysiological analyses indicated that the drug preferentially inhibits I(Kr) (rapidly activating component) but not I(Ks) (slowly activating component). 5. In isolated hearts, perfusion of carbachol (1 microM) shortened monophasic action potential (MAP) and effective refractory period (ERP), and lowered atrial fibrillation threshold (AFT). Addition of JTV-519 (1 microM) inhibited the induction of AF by prolonging MAP and ERP. 6. We conclude that JTV-519 can exert antiarrhythmic effects against AF by inhibiting repolarizing K(+) currents. The drug may be useful for the treatment of AF in patients with ischaemic heart disease.

Abstract
Annexins II, V, and VI are major components of matrix vesicles (MV), i.e. particles that have the critical role of initiating the mineralization process in skeletal tissues. Furthermore, types II and X collagen are associated with MV, and these interactions mediated by annexin V stimulate Ca(2+) uptake and mineralization of MV. However, the exact roles of annexin II, V, and VI and the interaction between annexin V and types II and X collagen in MV function and initiation of mineralization are not well understood. In this study, we demonstrate that annexin II, V, or VI mediate Ca(2+) influx into phosphatidylserine (PS)-enriched liposomes, liposomes containing lipids extracted from authentic MV, and intact authentic MV. The annexin Ca(2+) channel blocker, K-201, not only inhibited Ca(2+) influx into fura-2-loaded PS-enriched liposomes mediated by annexin II, V, or VI, but also inhibited Ca(2+) uptake by authentic MV. Types II and X collagen only bound to liposomes in the presence of annexin V but not in the presence of annexin II or VI. Binding of these collagens to annexin V stimulated its Ca(2+) channel activities, leading to an increased Ca(2+) influx into the liposomes. These findings indicate that the formation of annexin II, V, and VI Ca(2+) channels in MV together with stimulation of annexin V channel activity by collagen (types II and X) binding can explain how MV are able to rapidly take up Ca(2+) and initiate the formation of the first crystal phase.

Abstract
The effect of a novel cardioprotective agent, JTV-519 on myocardial metabolism and contraction during ischemia and reperfusion was investigated by means of phosphorus 31-nuclear magnetic resonance (31P-NMR) in Langendorff rabbit hearts. Normothermic, 20-min, global ischemia was followed by 30-min of postischemic reperfusion and JTV-519 was administered from 40 min prior to the global ischemia. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), creatine phosphate (PCr), inorganic phosphate (Pi), intracellular pH (pHi), left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP), left ventricular end-diastolic pressure (LVEDP) and coronary flow were measured. Fourteen hearts were divided into 2 experimental groups of 7: Group I were controls and Group II were perfused with JTV-519 (10(-6) mol/L). During ischemia, Group II showed a significant (p<0.01) inhibition of the increase in Pi and LVEDP and the decrease in ATP and pHi, compared with Group I. After postischemic reperfusion, Group II also showed a significant (p<0.01) improvement in ATP and pHi as compared with Group I. There were no differences in LVDP or coronary flow during ischemia and reperfusion between the 2 groups. In conclusion, JTV-519 had a significant beneficial effect on myocardial energy metabolism and relaxation during both myocardial ischemia and reperfusion.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that terminal differentiation of chondrocytes in human osteoarthritic cartilage might lead to the failure of repair mechanisms and might cause progressive loss of structure and function of articular cartilage. DESIGN Markers for terminally differentiated chondrocytes, such as alkaline phosphatase, annexin II, annexin V and type X collagen, were detected by immunohistochemical analysis of human normal and osteoarthritic knee cartilage from medial and lateral femoral condyles. Apoptosis in these specimens was detected using the TUNEL labeling. Mineralization and matrix vesicles were detected by alizarin red S staining and electron microscopic analysis. RESULTS Alkaline phosphatase, annexin II, annexin V and type X collagen were expressed by chondrocytes in the upper zone of early stage and late stage human osteoarthritic cartilage. However, these proteins, which are typically expressed in hypertrophic and calcifying growth plate cartilage, were not detectable in the upper, middle and deep zones of healthy human articular cartilage. TUNEL labeling of normal and osteoarthritic human cartilage sections provided evidence that chondrocytes in the upper zone of late stage osteoarthritic cartilage undergo apoptotic changes. In addition, mineral deposits were detected in the upper zone of late stage osteoarthritic cartilage. Needle-like mineral crystals were often associated with matrix vesicles in these areas, as seen in calcifying growth plate cartilage. CONCLUSION Human osteoarthritic chondrocytes adjacent to the joint space undergo terminal differentiation, release alkaline phosphatase-, annexin II- and annexin V-containing matrix vesicles, which initiate mineral formation, and eventually die by apoptosis. Thus, these cells resume phenotypic changes similar to terminal differentiation of chondrocytes in growth plate cartilage culminating in the destruction of articular cartilage in osteoarthritis.

Abstract
A newly synthesized benzothiazepine derivative, JTV-519 (JT) has been reported to be cardioprotective. However, the precise mechanism underlying the cardioprotective effect of this drug is unknown. Coronary-perfused guinea-pig ventricular muscles were subjected to 20-min no-flow ischaemia followed by 60-min reperfusion (I/R). I/R significantly decreased the contraction in untreated preparations (control group, 34+/-4% of baseline value, n=6). Brief administration of JT (1.0 microM) prior to ischaemia significantly improved the postischaemic contractile recovery (63+/-5% of baseline value, n=4), as compared to the control group. JT (1.0 microM) slightly prolonged action potential duration before ischaemia and induced conduction disturbance (2 : 1 block) after the initiation of ischaemia. The cardioprotective effect of JT was antagonized by chelerythrine (CH, 5.0 microM), an inhibitor of protein kinase C (PKC) or by 5-hydroxydecanoic acid (5-HD, 400 microM), an inhibitor of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive K(+) (K(ATP)) channels. These results suggest that the protective effect of JT is due to the opening of mitochondrial K(ATP) channels, which, in turn, is linked to PKC activation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A new 1,4-benzothiazepine derivative, JTV519, has a strong protective effect against Ca(2+) overload-induced myocardial injury. We investigated the effect of JTV519 on ischemia/reperfusion injury in isolated rat hearts. METHODS AND RESULTS At 30 minutes of reperfusion after 30-minute global ischemia, the percent recovery of left ventricular developed pressure was improved, and the creatine phosphokinase and lactate dehydrogenase leakage was reduced in a concentration-dependent manner when JTV519 was administered in the coronary perfusate both at 5 minutes before the induction of ischemia and at the time of reperfusion. The myocardial protective effect of JTV519 was completely blocked by pretreatment of the heart with GF109203X, a specific protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor. In contrast, the effect of JTV519 was not affected by alpha(1)-, A(1)-, and B(2)-receptor blockers that couple with PKC in the cardiomyocyte. Both immunofluorescence images and immunoblots of JTV519-treated left ventricular myocardium and isolated ventricular myocytes demonstrated that this agent induced concentration-dependent translocation of the delta-isoform but not the other isoforms of PKC to the plasma membrane. CONCLUSIONS The mechanism of cardioprotection by JTV519 against ischemia/reperfusion injury involves isozyme-specific PKC activation through a receptor-independent mechanism. This agent may provide a novel pharmacological approach for the treatment of patients with acute coronary diseases via a subcellular mechanism mimicking ischemic preconditioning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND JTV519 is know to protect cardiomyocytes from calcium overloading-induced damage. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential protective effect of JTV519 on myocardium subjected to prolonged ischemia and the underlying mechanism of such protection. The effect of JTV519 was also compared with that of diltiazem, a 1,5-benzothiazepine derivative. METHODS Isolated rat hearts were randomly divided into three groups. Control hearts were arrested with histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarat (HTK) cardioplegic solution alone. In the JTV519 group of hearts, cardiac arrest was achieved with JTV519 (10(-3) mmol/L) in the HTK solution. Hearts in the diltiazem group were arrested with diltiazem (0.5 mmol/L) in the HTK solution. All the hearts were then subjected to 6-hour storage in HTK solution at 4 degrees C. RESULTS After a 30-minute reperfusion, the left ventricular developed pressure in the JTV519 and diltiazem groups were improved significantly compared with the control group. There was a significantly lower left ventricular end-diastolic pressure level and higher recovery of coronary flow in the JTV519 group than in the control group. The postischemic intracellular calcium concentration was attenuated by adding JTV519 or diltiazem to HTK cardioplegia. CONCLUSION As an adjunct to cardioplegia, JTV519 showed a significant protective effect on myocardium undergoing 6 hours of ischemia. The beneficial protective effects of JTV519 are correlated with its ability to inhibit the postischemic rise in intracellular calcium.

Abstract
We investigated effects of a novel cardioprotective drug, JTV-519 (4-[3-(4-benzylpiperidin-1-yl)propionyl]-7-methoxy-2,3,4,5-tetrahy dro-1,4-benzothiazepine monohydrochloride) on membrane currents of guinea pig ventricular myocytes by whole-cell voltage and current clamp methods. The fast Na+ current (iNa) was activated by ramp pulses from various holding potentials of -90, -80 or -60 mV to 10 mV with various intervals. At 0.2 Hz, JTV-519 inhibited iNa in a concentration-dependent manner with an IC50 of approximately 1.2 and 2 microM at the holding potential of -60 and -90 mM, respectively, implicating a voltage-dependent block. Increasing the pulse frequency from 1 to 2 or 3.3 Hz in the presence of 1 microM JTV-519 shortened the time-course and increased the level of iNa block, indicating a frequency-dependent block. The time-course of iNa blocking by JTV-519 was slower than that of lidocaine and similar to that of quinidine. Ca2+ current (iCa) and the inwardly rectifying K+ current (iK1) were also inhibited by JTV-519. JTV-519 decreased the duration and the height of the plateau of the action potential. We conclude that JTV-519 has frequency- and voltage-dependent blocking effects on iNa as well as inhibition of iCa and iK1.

Abstract
Human annexins III and V, members of the annexin family of calcium- and membrane-binding proteins, were complexed within the crystals with BDA452, a new 1,4-benzodiazepine derivative by soaking and co-crystallization methods. The crystal structures of the complexes were analyzed by x-ray crystallography and refined to 2.3- and 3.0-A resolution. BDA452 binds to a cleft which is located close to the N-terminus opposite to the membrane binding side of the proteins. Biophysical studies of the interactions of various benzodiazepine derivatives with annexins were performed to analyze the binding of benzodiazepines to annexins and their effects on the annexin-induced calcium influx into phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylethanolamine liposomes. Different effects were observed with a variety of benzodiazepines and different annexins depending on both the ligand and the protein. Almost opposite effects on annexin function are elicited by BDA250 and diazepam, its 7-chloro-derivative. We conclude that benzodiazepines modulate the calcium influx activity of annexins allosterically by stabilizing or destabilizing the conducting state of peripherally bound annexins in agreement with suggestions by Kaneko (Kaneko, N., Ago, H., Matsuda, R., Inagaki, E., and Miyano, M. (1997) J. Mol. Biol., in press).

Abstract
The crystal structure of recombinant human annexin V complexed with K-201, an inhibitor of the calcium ion channel activity of annexin V, was solved at 3.0 A by molecular replacement including the apo and high-calcium forms. K-201 was bound at the hinge region cavity formed by the N-terminal strand and domains II, III and IV, at the side opposite the calcium and membrane-binding surface, in an L-shaped conformation. Based on the complex and other annexin structures, K-201 is proposed to restrain the hinge movement of annexin V in an allosteric manner, resulting in the inhibition of calcium movement across the annexin V molecule.

Abstract
Examination was made of the effect of annexin V on Ca2+ movement into large unilamellar vesicles (LUV) using fura-2, a calcium-sensitive fluorescent dye. To avoid the possible difficulties relating to the addition of annexin V and/or Ca2+ in fura-2-loaded LUV, the burst method was used. LUV, preincubated with rat annexin V in the presence of Ca2+, were collected by centrifugation and resuspended, and then burst with Triton X-100 in the presence of fura-2. Inward Ca2+ movement across the artificial lipid membrane was measured by determination of fura-2 fluorescence due to the leaked Ca2+ from ruptured LUV. The observed Ca2+ signal increased dependent on annexin V and Ca2+ concentrations, whereas bovine serum albumin did not affect this signal up to 1 microM. Thus, annexin V shows Ca2+ channel activity in LUV. K201, a novel 1,4-benzothiazepine, inhibited inward Ca2+ movement into LUV caused by annexin V in a dose-dependent manner. In the presence of 50 nM annexin V and 400 microM Ca2+, 3 microM K201 showed significant inhibition of Ca2+ movement due to annexin V, and 50% inhibition was achieved at 25 microM K201. On the other hand, diltiazem had no such effect even at 30 microM. K201 is thus shown to have inhibitory activity on inward Ca2+ movement due to annexin V in artificial vesicles and may prove useful as a probe for elucidating the functions of annexin V in vivo.
