Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION Abnormalities in Ca2+ signaling have a key role in hemodynamic dysfunction in diabetic heart. The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes on Ca2+ signaling in epicardial (EPI) and endocardial (ENDO) cells of the left ventricle after 5-6 months of STZ injection. MATERIALS AND METHODS Whole-cell patch clamp was used to measure the L-type Ca2+ channel (LTCC) and Na+ /Ca2+ exchanger currents. Fluorescence photometry techniques were used to measure intracellular free Ca2+ concentration. RESULTS Although the LTCC current was not significantly altered, the amplitude of Ca2+ transients increased significantly in EPI-STZ and ENDO-STZ compared with controls. Time to peak LTCC current, time to peak Ca2+ transient, time to half decay of LTCC current and time to half decay of Ca2+ transients were not significantly changed in EPI-STZ and ENDO-STZ myocytes compared with controls. The Na+ /Ca2+ exchanger current was significantly smaller in EPI-STZ and in ENDO-STZ compared with controls. CONCLUSIONS STZ-induced diabetes resulted in an increase in amplitude of Ca2+ transients in EPI and ENDO myocytes that was independent of the LTCC current. Such an effect can be attributed, at least in part, to the dysfunction of the Na+ /Ca2+ exchanger. Additional studies are warranted to improve our understanding of the regional impact of diabetes on Ca2+ signaling, which will facilitate the discovery of new targeted treatments for diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Shutter-speed analysis of dynamic-contrast-agent (CA)-enhanced normal, multiple sclerosis (MS), and glioblastoma (GBM) human brain data gives the mean capillary water molecule lifetime (τ(b)) and blood volume fraction (v(b); capillary density-volume product (ρ(†)V)) in a high-resolution (1)H2O MRI voxel (40 μL) or ROI. The equilibrium water extravasation rate constant, k(po) (τ(b)(-1)), averages 3.2 and 2.9 s(-1) in resting-state normal white matter (NWM) and gray matter (NGM), respectively (n = 6). The results (italicized) lead to three major conclusions. (A) k(po) differences are dominated by capillary water permeability (P(W)(†)), not size, differences. NWM and NGM voxel k(po) and v(b) values are independent. Quantitative analyses of concomitant population-averaged k(po), v(b) variations in normal and normal-appearing MS brain ROIs confirm P(W)(†) dominance. (B) P(W)(†) is dominated (>95%) by a trans(endothelial)cellular pathway, not the P(CA)(†) paracellular route. In MS lesions and GBM tumors, P(CA)(†) increases but P(W)(†) decreases. (C) k(po) tracks steady-state ATP production/consumption flux per capillary. In normal, MS, and GBM brain, regional k(po) correlates with literature MRSI ATP (positively) and Na(+) (negatively) tissue concentrations. This suggests that the P(W)(†) pathway is metabolically active. Excellent agreement of the relative NGM/NWM k(po)v(b) product ratio with the literature (31)PMRSI-MT CMR(oxphos) ratio confirms the flux property. We have previously shown that the cellular water molecule efflux rate constant (k(io)) is proportional to plasma membrane P-type ATPase turnover, likely due to active trans-membrane water cycling. With synaptic proximities and synergistic metabolic cooperativities, polar brain endothelial, neuroglial, and neuronal cells form "gliovascular units." We hypothesize that a chain of water cycling processes transmits brain metabolic activity to k(po), letting it report neurogliovascular unit Na(+),K(+)-ATPase activity. Cerebral k(po) maps represent metabolic (functional) neuroimages. The NGM 2.9 s(-1) k(po) means an equilibrium unidirectional water efflux of ~10(15) H2O molecules s(-1) per capillary (in 1 μL tissue): consistent with the known ATP consumption rate and water co-transporting membrane symporter stoichiometries.

Abstract
4-phenylbutyrate (4-PB) has been shown to increase the protein content in a number of cells types. One such protein is Connexin43 (Cx43). We show here that 4-phenylbutyrate exposure results in significantly elevated cell to cell coupling, as determined by dual whole cell patch clamp. Incubation with 5 mM 4PB for 24 h or more nearly doubles junctional conductance. Interestingly, mRNA levels for Cx43 declined with exposure to 4-PB while western blot analysis revealed not significant change in protein levels. These data are most consistent with stabilization of the existing Cx43 pool or alterations in the number of functional channels within an existing pool of active and silent channels. These data represent a baseline for testing the efficacy of increased connexin mediated coupling in a variety of multicellular functions including erectile function.

Autocrine A2 in the T-system of ventricular myocytes creates transmural gradients in ion transport: a mechanism to match contraction with load? Biophys J 2015; 106:2364-74. [PMID: 24896115 DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2014.04.042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2013] [Revised: 04/14/2014] [Accepted: 04/17/2014] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Transmural heterogeneities in Na/K pump current (IP), transient outward K(+)-current (Ito), and Ca(2+)-current (ICaL) play an important role in regulating electrical and contractile activities in the ventricular myocardium. Prior studies indicated angiotensin II (A2) may determine the transmural gradient in Ito, but the effects of A2 on IP and ICaL were unknown. In this study, myocytes were isolated from five muscle layers between epicardium and endocardium. We found a monotonic gradient in both Ip and Ito, with the lowest currents in ENDO. When AT1Rs were inhibited, EPI currents were unaffected, but ENDO currents increased, suggesting endogenous extracellular A2 inhibits both currents in ENDO. IP- and Ito-inhibition by A2 yielded essentially the same K0.5 values, so they may both be regulated by the same mechanism. A2/AT1R-mediated inhibition of IP or Ito or stimulation of ICaL persisted for hours in isolated myocytes, suggesting continuous autocrine secretion of A2 into a restricted diffusion compartment, like the T-system. Detubulation brought EPI IP to its low ENDO value and eliminated A2 sensitivity, so the T-system lumen may indeed be the restricted diffusion compartment. These studies showed that 33-50% of IP, 57-65% of Ito, and a significant fraction of ICaL reside in T-tubule membranes where they are transmurally regulated by autocrine secretion of A2 into the T-system lumen and activation of AT1Rs. Increased AT1R activation regulates each of these currents in a direction expected to increase contractility. Endogenous A2 activation of AT1Rs increases monotonically from EPI to ENDO in a manner similar to reported increases in passive tension when the ventricular chamber fills with blood. We therefore hypothesize load is the signal that regulates A2-activation of AT1Rs, which create a contractile gradient that matches the gradient in load.

Abstract
P2X4 receptors (P2X4Rs) are ligand-gated ion channels capable of conducting cations such as Na(+). Endogenous cardiac P2X4R can mediate ATP-activated current in adult murine cardiomyocytes. In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that cardiac P2X receptors can induce Na(+) entry and modulate Na(+) handling. We further determined whether P2X receptor-induced stimulation of the Na(+)/Ca(2+) exchanger (NCX) has a role in modulating the cardiac contractile state. Changes in Na(+)-K(+)-ATPase current (Ip) and NCX current (INCX) after agonist stimulation were measured in ventricular myocytes of P2X4 transgenic mice using whole cell patch-clamp techniques. The agonist 2-methylthio-ATP (2-meSATP) increased peak Ip from a basal level of 0.52 ± 0.02 to 0.58 ± 0.03 pA/pF. 2-meSATP also increased the Ca(2+) entry mode of INCX (0.55 ± 0.09 pA/pF under control conditions vs. 0.82 ± 0.14 pA/pF with 2-meSATP) at a membrane potential of +50 mV. 2-meSATP shifted the reversal potential of INCX from -14 ± 2.3 to -25 ± 4.1 mV, causing an estimated intracellular Na(+) concentration increase of 1.28 ± 0.42 mM. These experimental results were closely mimicked by mathematical simulations based on previously established models. KB-R7943 or a structurally different agent preferentially opposing the Ca(2+) entry mode of NCX, YM-244769, could inhibit the 2-meSATP-induced increase in cell shortening in transgenic myocytes. Thus, the Ca(2+) entry mode of INCX participates in P2X agonist-stimulated contractions. In ventricular myocytes from wild-type mice, the P2X agonist could increase INCX, and KB-R7943 was able to inhibit the contractile effect of endogenous P2X4Rs, indicating a physiological role of these receptors in wild-type cells. The data demonstrate a novel Na(+) entry pathway through ligand-gated P2X4Rs in cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
Expression silencing of junctophilin-2 (JPH2) in mouse heart leads to ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2)-mediated sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) leak and rapid development of heart failure. The mechanism and physiological significance of JPH2 in regulating RyR2-mediated SR Ca(2+) leak remains elusive. We sought to elucidate the role of JPH2 in regulating RyR2-mediated SR Ca(2+) release in the setting of cardiac failure. Cardiac myocytes isolated from tamoxifen-inducible conditional knockdown mice of JPH2 (MCM-shJPH2) were subjected to confocal Ca(2+) imaging. MCM-shJPH2 cardiomyocytes exhibited an increased spark frequency width with altered spark morphology, which caused increased SR Ca(2+) leakage. Single channel studies identified an increased RyR2 open probability in MCM-shJPH2 mice. The increase in spark frequency and width was observed only in MCM-shJPH2 and not found in mice with increased RyR2 open probability with native JPH2 expression. Na(+)/Ca(2+)-exchanger (NCX) activity was reduced by 50% in MCM-shJPH2 with no detectable change in NCX expression. Additionally, 50% inhibition of NCX through Cd(2+) administration alone was sufficient to increase spark width in myocytes obtained from wild-type mice. Additionally, superresolution analysis of RyR2 and NCX colocalization showed a reduced overlap between RyR2 and NCX in MCM-shJPH2 mice. In conclusion, decreased JPH2 expression causes increased SR Ca(2+) leakage by directly increasing open probability of RyR2 and by indirectly reducing junctional NCX activity through increased dyadic cleft Ca(2+). This demonstrates two novel and independent cellular mechanisms by which JPH2 regulates RyR2-mediated SR Ca(2+) leak and heart failure development.

Abstract
Shutter-speed pharmacokinetic analysis of dynamic-contrast-enhanced (DCE)-MRI data allows evaluation of equilibrium inter-compartmental water interchange kinetics. The process measured here - transcytolemmal water exchange - is characterized by the mean intracellular water molecule lifetime (τi). The τi biomarker is a true intensive property not accessible by any formulation of the tracer pharmacokinetic paradigm, which inherently assumes it is effectively zero when applied to DCE-MRI. We present population-averaged in vivo human breast whole tumor τi changes induced by therapy, along with those of other pharmacokinetic parameters. In responding patients, the DCE parameters change significantly after only one neoadjuvant chemotherapy cycle: while K(trans) (measuring mostly contrast agent (CA) extravasation) and kep (CA intravasation rate constant) decrease, τi increases. However, high-resolution, (1 mm)(2), parametric maps exhibit significant intratumor heterogeneity, which is lost by averaging. A typical 400 ms τi value means a trans-membrane water cycling flux of 10(13) H2O molecules s(-1)/cell for a 12 µm diameter cell. Analyses of intratumor variations (and therapy-induced changes) of τi in combination with concomitant changes of ve (extracellular volume fraction) indicate that the former are dominated by alterations of the equilibrium cell membrane water permeability coefficient, PW, not of cell size. These can be interpreted in light of literature results showing that τi changes are dominated by a PW (active) component that reciprocally reflects the membrane driving P-type ATPase ion pump turnover. For mammalian cells, this is the Na(+), K(+)-ATPase pump. These results promise the potential to discriminate metabolic and microenvironmental states of regions within tumors in vivo, and their changes with therapy.
