Abstract
Inherited arrhythmia syndromes (IASs) can cause life-threatening arrhythmias and are responsible for a significant proportion of sudden cardiac deaths (SCDs). Despite progress in the development of devices to prevent SCDs, the precise molecular mechanisms that induce detrimental arrhythmias remain to be fully investigated, and more effective therapies are desirable. In the present study, we screened a large-scale randomly mutagenized mouse library by electrocardiography to establish a disease model of IASs and consequently found one pedigree that exhibited spontaneous ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) followed by SCD within 1 y after birth. Genetic analysis successfully revealed a missense mutation (p.I4093V) of the ryanodine receptor 2 gene to be a cause of the arrhythmia. We found an age-related increase in arrhythmia frequency accompanied by cardiomegaly and decreased ventricular contractility in the Ryr2I4093V/+ mice. Ca2+ signaling analysis and a ryanodine binding assay indicated that the mutant ryanodine receptor 2 had a gain-of-function phenotype and enhanced Ca2+ sensitivity. Using this model, we detected the significant suppression of VA following flecainide or dantrolene treatment. Collectively, we established an inherited life-threatening arrhythmia mouse model from an electrocardiogram-based screen of randomly mutagenized mice. The present IAS model may prove feasible for use in investigating the mechanisms of SCD and assessing therapies.

A potent and selective cis-amide inhibitor of ryanodine receptor 2 as a candidate for cardiac arrhythmia treatment. Eur J Med Chem 2023; 262:115910.

Abstract
Ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) is a Ca2+ release channel mainly located on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membrane of heart muscle cells and regulates the concentration of Ca2+ in the cytosol. RyR2 overactivation causes potentially lethal cardiac arrhythmias, but no specific inhibitor is yet available. Herein we developed the first highly potent and selective RyR2 inhibitor, TMDJ-035, containing 3,5-difluoro substituents on the A ring and a 4-fluoro substituent on the B ring, based on a comprehensive structure-activity relationship (SAR) study of tetrazole compound 1. The SAR study also showed that the amide conformation is critical for inhibitory potency. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and variable-temperature 1H NMR revealed that TMDJ-035 strongly favors cis-amide configuration, while the inactive analogue TMDJ-011 with a secondary amide takes trans-amide configuration. Examination of the selectivity among RyRs indicated that TMDJ-035 displayed high selectivity for RyR2. TMDJ-035 suppressed abnormal Ca2+ waves and transients in isolated cardiomyocytes from RyR2-mutated mice. It appears to be a promising candidate drug for treating cardiac arrhythmias due to RyR2 overactivation, as well as a tool for studying the mechanism and dynamics of RyR2 channel gating.

Screening for Novel Type 2 Ryanodine Receptor Inhibitors by Endoplasmic Reticulum Ca 2+ Monitoring. Mol Pharmacol 2023; 104:275-286. [PMID: 37678938 DOI: 10.1124/molpharm.123.000720] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2023] [Revised: 08/21/2023] [Accepted: 08/29/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Type 2 ryanodine receptor (RyR2) is a Ca2+ release channel on the endoplasmic (ER)/sarcoplasmic reticulum that plays a central role in the excitation-contraction coupling in the heart. Hyperactivity of RyR2 has been linked to ventricular arrhythmias in patients with catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia and heart failure, where spontaneous Ca2+ release via hyperactivated RyR2 depolarizes diastolic membrane potential to induce triggered activity. In such cases, drugs that suppress RyR2 activity are expected to prevent the arrhythmias, but there is no clinically available RyR2 inhibitors at present. In this study, we searched for RyR2 inhibitors from a well-characterized compound library using a recently developed ER Ca2+-based assay, where the inhibition of RyR2 activity was detected by the increase in ER Ca2+ signals from R-CEPIA1er, a genetically encoded ER Ca2+ indicator, in RyR2-expressing HEK293 cells. By screening 1535 compounds in the library, we identified three compounds (chloroxylenol, methyl orsellinate, and riluzole) that greatly increased the ER Ca2+ signal. All of the three compounds suppressed spontaneous Ca2+ oscillations in RyR2-expressing HEK293 cells and correspondingly reduced the Ca2+-dependent [3H]ryanodine binding activity. In cardiomyocytes from RyR2-mutant mice, the three compounds effectively suppressed abnormal Ca2+ waves without substantial effects on the action-potential-induced Ca2+ transients. These results confirm that ER Ca2+-based screening is useful for identifying modulators of ER Ca2+ release channels and suggest that RyR2 inhibitors have potential to be developed as a new category of antiarrhythmic drugs. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: We successfully identified three compounds having RyR2 inhibitory action from a well-characterized compound library using an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-based assay, and demonstrated that these compounds suppressed arrhythmogenic Ca2+ wave generation without substantially affecting physiological action-potential induced Ca2+ transients in cardiomyocytes. This study will facilitate the development of RyR2-specific inhibitors as a potential new class of drugs for life-threatening arrhythmias induced by hyperactivation of RyR2.

Ligand sensitivity of type-1 inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor is enhanced by the D2594K mutation. Pflugers Arch 2023; 475:569-581. [PMID: 36881190 PMCID: PMC10105685 DOI: 10.1007/s00424-023-02796-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/12/2023] [Indexed: 03/08/2023]
Abstract
Inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor (IP3R) and ryanodine receptor (RyR) are homologous cation channels that mediate release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) and thereby are involved in many physiological processes. In previous studies, we determined that when the D2594 residue, located at or near the gate of the IP3R type 1, was replaced by lysine (D2594K), a gain of function was obtained. This mutant phenotype was characterized by increased IP3 sensitivity. We hypothesized the IP3R1-D2594 determines the ligand sensitivity of the channel by electrostatically affecting the stability of the closed and open states. To test this possibility, the relationship between the D2594 site and IP3R1 regulation by IP3, cytosolic, and luminal Ca2+ was determined at the cellular, subcellular, and single-channel levels using fluorescence Ca2+ imaging and single-channel reconstitution. We found that in cells, D2594K mutation enhances the IP3 ligand sensitivity. Single-channel IP3R1 studies revealed that the conductance of IP3R1-WT and -D2594K channels is similar. However, IP3R1-D2594K channels exhibit higher IP3 sensitivity, with substantially greater efficacy. In addition, like its wild type (WT) counterpart, IP3R1-D2594K showed a bell-shape cytosolic Ca2+-dependency, but D2594K had greater activity at each tested cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration. The IP3R1-D2594K also had altered luminal Ca2+ sensitivity. Unlike IP3R1-WT, D2594K channel activity did not decrease at low luminal Ca2+ levels. Taken together, our functional studies indicate that the substitution of a negatively charged residue by a positive one at the channels' pore cytosolic exit affects the channel's gating behavior thereby explaining the enhanced ligand-channel's sensitivity.
