Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is one of the major causes of ischemic and nonischemic heart failure. While hypertension and coronary artery disease are frequent comorbidities in patients with diabetes, cardiac contractile dysfunction and remodeling occur in diabetic patients even without comorbidities, which is referred to as diabetic cardiomyopathy. Investigations in recent decades have demonstrated that the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), impaired handling of intracellular Ca2+, and alterations in energy metabolism are involved in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. AMP deaminase (AMPD) directly regulates adenine nucleotide metabolism and energy transfer by adenylate kinase and indirectly modulates xanthine oxidoreductase-mediated pathways and AMP-activated protein kinase-mediated signaling. Upregulation of AMPD in diabetic hearts was first reported more than 30 years ago, and subsequent studies showed similar upregulation in the liver and skeletal muscle. Evidence for the roles of AMPD in diabetes-induced fatty liver, sarcopenia, and heart failure has been accumulating. A series of our recent studies showed that AMPD localizes in the mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane as well as the sarcoplasmic reticulum and cytosol and participates in the regulation of mitochondrial Ca2+ and suggested that upregulated AMPD contributes to contractile dysfunction in diabetic cardiomyopathy via increased generation of ROS, adenine nucleotide depletion, and impaired mitochondrial respiration. The detrimental effects of AMPD were manifested at times of increased cardiac workload by pressure loading. In this review, we briefly summarize the expression and functions of AMPD in the heart and discuss the roles of AMPD in diabetic cardiomyopathy, mainly focusing on contractile dysfunction caused by this disorder.

Abstract
The Arabidopsis thaliana GSK3-like kinase, BRASSINOSTEROID-INSENSITIVE2 (BIN2) is a key negative regulator of brassinosteroid (BR) signaling and a hub for crosstalk with other signaling pathways. However, the mechanisms controlling BIN2 activity are not well understood. Here we performed a forward genetic screen for resistance to the plant-specific GSK3 inhibitor bikinin and discovered that a mutation in the ADENOSINE MONOPHOSPHATE DEAMINASE (AMPD)/EMBRYONIC FACTOR1 (FAC1) gene reduces the sensitivity of Arabidopsis seedlings to both bikinin and BRs. Further analyses revealed that AMPD modulates BIN2 activity by regulating its oligomerization in a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-dependent manner. Exogenous H2O2 induced the formation of BIN2 oligomers with a decreased kinase activity and an increased sensitivity to bikinin. By contrast, AMPD activity inhibition reduced the cytosolic reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and the amount of BIN2 oligomers, correlating with the decreased sensitivity of Arabidopsis plants to bikinin and BRs. Furthermore, we showed that BIN2 phosphorylates AMPD to possibly alter its function. Our results uncover the existence of an H2O2 homeostasis-mediated regulation loop between AMPD and BIN2 that fine-tunes the BIN2 kinase activity to control plant growth and development.

Abstract
AMP deaminase (AMPD) plays a crucial role in adenine nucleotide metabolism. Recently we found that upregulated AMPD activity is associated with ATP depletion and contractile dysfunction under the condition of pressure overloading in the heart of a rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), OLETF. Here we examined the mechanism of AMPD upregulation by T2DM. The protein level of 90-kDa full-length AMPD3 was increased in whole myocardial lysates by 55% in OLETF compared to those in LETO, a non-diabetic control. In contrast, the mRNA levels of AMPD3 in the myocardium were similar in OLETF and LETO. AMPD3 was comparably ubiquitinated in OLETF and LETO, and its degradation ex vivo was more sensitive to MG-132, a proteasome inhibitor, in OLETF than in LETO. MicroRNA array analysis revealed downregulation (>50%) of 57 microRNAs in OLETF compared to those in LETO, among which miR-301b was predicted to interact with the 3'UTR of AMPD3 mRNA. AMPD3 protein level was significantly increased by a miR-301b inhibitor and was decreased by a miR-301b mimetic in H9c2 cells. A luciferase reporter assay confirmed binding of miR-301b to the 3'UTR of AMPD3 mRNA. Transfection of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes with a miR-301b inhibitor increased 90-kDa AMPD3 and reduced ATP level. The results indicate that translational regulation by miR-301b mediates upregulated expression of cardiac AMPD3 protein in OLETF, which potentially reduces the adenine nucleotide pool at the time of increased work load. The miR-301b-AMPD3 axis may be a novel therapeutic target for intervening enegy metabolism in diabetic hearts.

Inhibition of AMP deaminase as therapeutic target in cardiovascular pathology. Pharmacol Rep 2015; 67:682-8.

Abstract
AMP deaminase (AMPD; EC 3.5.4.6) catalyzes hydrolysis of the amino group from the adenine ring of AMP resulting in production of inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP) and ammonia. This reaction helps to maintain healthy cellular energetics by removing excess AMP that accumulates in energy depleted cells. Furthermore, AMPD permits the synthesis of guanine nucleotides from the larger adenylate pool. This enzyme competes with cytosolic 5'-nucleotidases (c5NT) for AMP. Adenosine, a product of c5NT is a vasodilator, antagonizes inotropic effects of catecholamines and exerts anti-platelet, anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive activities. The ratio of AMPD/c5NT defines the amount of adenosine produced in adenine nucleotide catabolic pathway. Inhibition of AMPD could alter this ratio resulting in increased adenosine production. Besides the potential effect on adenosine production, elevation of AMP due to inhibition of AMPD could also lead to activation of AMP regulated protein kinase (AMPK) with myriad of downstream events including enhanced energetic metabolism, mitochondrial biogenesis and cytoprotection. While the benefits of these processes are well appreciated in cells such as skeletal or cardiac myocytes its role in protection of endothelium could be even more important. Therapeutic use of AMPD inhibition has been limited due to difficulties with obtaining compounds with adequate characteristics. However, endothelium seems to be the easiest target as effective inhibition of AMPD could be achieved at much lower concentration than in the other types of cells. New generation of AMPD inhibitors has recently been established and its testing in context of endothelial and organ protection could provide important basic knowledge and potential therapeutic tools.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The wood frog, Rana sylvatica, is one of a few vertebrate species that have developed natural freeze tolerance, surviving days or weeks with 65-70% of its total body water frozen in extracellular ice masses. Frozen frogs exhibit no vital signs and their organs must endure multiple stresses, particularly long term anoxia and ischemia. Maintenance of cellular energy supply is critical to viability in the frozen state and in skeletal muscle, AMP deaminase (AMPD) plays a key role in stabilizing cellular energetics. The present study investigated AMPD control in wood frog muscle. RESULTS Wood frog AMPD was subject to multiple regulatory controls: binding to subcellular structures, protein phosphorylation, and effects of allosteric effectors, cryoprotectants and temperature. The percentage of bound AMPD activity increased from 20 to 35% with the transition to the frozen state. Bound AMPD showed altered kinetic parameters compared with the free enzyme (S0.5 AMP was reduced, Hill coefficient fell to approximately 1.0) and the transition to the frozen state led to a 3-fold increase in S0.5 AMP of the bound enzyme. AMPD was a target of protein phosphorylation. Bound AMPD from control frogs proved to be a low phosphate form with a low S0.5 AMP and was phosphorylated in incubations that stimulated PKA, PKC, CaMK, or AMPK. Bound AMPD from frozen frogs was a high phosphate form with a high S0.5 AMP that was reduced under incubation conditions that stimulated protein phosphatases. Frog muscle AMPD was activated by Mg.ATP and Mg.ADP and inhibited by Mg.GTP, KCl, NaCl and NH4Cl. The enzyme product, IMP, uniquely inhibited only the bound (phosphorylated) enzyme from muscle of frozen frogs. Activators and inhibitors differentially affected the free versus bound enzyme. S0.5 AMP of bound AMPD was also differentially affected by high versus low assay temperature (25 vs 5 degrees C) and by the presence/absence of the natural cryoprotectant (250 mM glucose) that accumulates during freezing. CONCLUSION Maintenance of long term viability under the ischemic conditions in frozen muscle requires attention to the control of cellular energetics. Differential regulatory controls on AMPD by mechanisms including binding to muscle proteins, actions allosteric effectors, glucose and temperature effects and reversible phosphorylation adjust enzyme function for an optimal role in controlling cellular adenylate levels in ischemic frozen muscle. Stable modification of AMPD properties via freeze-responsive phosphorylation may contribute both to AMPD control and to coordinating AMPD function with other enzymes of energy metabolism in cold ischemic muscle.

Abstract
Adenosine is an important physiological regulator of the cardiovascular system. The goal of our study was to assess the expression level of nucleoside transporters (NT) in diabetic rat cardiomyocytes and to examine the activities of adenosine metabolizing enzymes. Isolated rat cardiomyocytes displayed the presence of detectable amounts of mRNA for ENT1, ENT2, CNT1, and CNT2. Overall adenosine (10 microM) transport in cardiomyocytes isolated from normal rat was 36 pmol/mg/min. The expression level of equilibrative transporters (ENT1, ENT2) decreased and of concentrative transporters (CNT1, CNT2) increased in myocytes isolated from diabetic rat. Consequently, overall adenosine transport decreased by 30%, whereas Na(+)-dependent adenosine uptake increased 2-fold, and equilibrative transport decreased by 60%. The activity ratio of AMP deaminase/5'-nucleotidase in cytosol of normal cardiomyocytes was 11 and increased to 15 in diabetic cells. The activity of ecto-5'-nucleotidase increased 2-fold in diabetic cells resulting in a rise of the activity ratio of ecto-5'-nucleotidase/adenosine deaminase from 28 to 56.These results indicate that in rat cardiomyocytes diabetes alters activities of adenosine metabolizing enzymes in such a way that conversion of AMP to IMP is favored in the cytosolic compartment, whereas the capability to produce adenosine extracellularly is increased. This is accompanied by an increased unidirectional Na(+)-dependent uptake of adenosine and significantly reduced bidirectional adenosine transport.

Abstract
The properties of piglet cardiac AMP deaminase were determined and its regulation by pH, phosphate, nucleotides and phosphorylation is described. AMP deaminase purified from the ventricles of newborn piglet hearts displayed hyperbolic kinetics with a Km of 2 mM for 5'-AMP. The enzyme had a pH optimum of 7.0 and was strongly inhibited by inorganic phosphate. ATP decreased the Km of the native enzyme 3-fold, but did not significantly block the inhibitory effects of phosphate. Kinetic parameters were not significantly altered in the presence of adenosine, cyclic AMP and NAD+, whereas, the Km was decreased by 50% in the presence of NADH. Piglet cardiac AMP deaminase was phosphorylated by protein kinase C, resulting in a 2-fold increase in Vmax with no change in Km. However, incubation with cAMP-dependent protein kinase did not affect enzyme kinetics. The 80-85 kD protein subunit of piglet cardiac AMP deaminase immunoreacted with antisera raised against human erythrocyte AMP deaminase, rabbit heart AMP deaminase and human recombinant AMP deaminase 3 (isoform E). These results are discussed in relation to in situ AMP deaminase activity in neonatal piglet heart myocytes.

Abstract
AMP deaminase (AMPD) converts AMP to IMP and is a diverse and highly regulated enzyme that is a key component of the adenylate catabolic pathway. In this report, we identify the high affinity interaction between AMPD and phosphoinositides as a mechanism for regulation of this enzyme. We demonstrate that endogenous rat brain AMPD and the human AMPD3 recombinant enzymes specifically bind inositide-based affinity probes and to mixed lipid micelles that contain phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate. Moreover, we show that phosphoinositides specifically inhibit AMPD catalytic activity. Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate is the most potent inhibitor, effecting pure noncompetitive inhibition of the wild type human AMPD3 recombinant enzyme with a K(i) of 110 nM. AMPD activity can be released from membrane fractions by in vitro treatment with neomycin, a phosphoinositide-binding drug. In addition, in vivo modulation of phosphoinositide levels leads to a change in the soluble and membrane-associated pools of AMPD activity. The predicted human AMPD3 sequence contains pleckstrin homology domains and (R/K)X(n)(R/K)XKK sequences, both of which are characterized phosphoinositide-binding motifs. The interaction between AMPD and phosphoinositides may mediate membrane localization of the enzyme and function to modulate catalytic activity in vivo.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine in situ regulation of AMP deaminase in newborn piglet cardiac myocytes and to determine its role in nucleotide metabolism during ischemia. When a rapid deenergization paradigm was used to assay AMP deaminase, enzyme activity depended on the hormonal and metabolic status of cells just before deenergization. Inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP) formation was increased 150% in deenergized myocytes pretreated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; EC50 = 4.7 x 10(-8) M). This effect was 90% blocked with the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor staurosporine. In addition, the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol stimulated AMP deaminase activity (EC50 = 1.5 x 10(-8) M), and IMP formation was directly correlated to intracellular cAMP levels (r2 = 0.9). Furthermore, adenosine increased IMP formation, whereas nonrespiring, glycolyzing piglet myocytes had reduced AMP deaminase activity. Pretreatment of perfused piglet hearts with adenosine, but not PMA, before exposure to global ischemia resulted in enhanced conversion of AMP to IMP during the ischemic period. Similar results were obtained in piglet myocytes preincubated with adenosine or PMA before exposure to simulated ischemia. These results may be relevant to the preconditioning phenomenon.

Abstract
One or several brief episodes of myocardial ischemia (ischemic preconditioning; IP) rapidly induces tolerance to a later ischemic challenge. This endogenous cardioprotective effect is characterized by a slower onset of cell death. A key feature and probable proximate mechanism of IP is reduced ischemic energy demand which is evident by slower use of ATP and slower accumulation of ischemic catabolites. Several mechanisms for IP and the associated metabolic slowing have been studied: The mitochondrial ATPase is a major cause of ATP hydrolysis in ischemic myocardium but slower ATP depletion in preconditioned myocardium is not due to persistent inhibition of this ATPase. Brief episodes of ischemia in dogs induce stunning as well as IP. Stunning, however, is neither necessary nor sufficient to establish the protective effects of IP. Release of norepinephrine from adrenergic cardiac nerves causes beta adrenergic receptor-mediated stimulation of adenylate cyclase, which stimulates energy-dependent processes. However, IP in dogs that were depleted of catecholamines by pretreatment with reserpine was less effective than IP in control hearts. Thus, an antiadrenergic mechanism does not fully account for the preconditioned state. Another proposed mechanism involves earlier or more complete opening of ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP+) channels. Which of these (or other) pathways mediate the energy sparing effects of ischemic preconditioning remains unknown.

Abstract
Dietary supplementation of the creatine analogue beta-guanidinopropionic acid (beta-GPA) decreases in vitro skeletal muscle AMP deaminase (AMP-D) activity in rats. Downregulation of AMP-D activity was progressive and greater in fast-twitch muscles (70-80%) than in the slow-twitch soleus muscle (approximately 50%). The loss in AMP-D activity had little effect on inosine 5'-monophosphate accumulation in mixed-fiber muscle with intense tetanic contractions. In contrast, inosine 5'-monophosphate formation was evident earlier in fast-twitch red and white fiber sections of creatine-depleted animals during intense twitch contractions, indicating that fast-twitch muscle of beta-GPA-treated rats buffers decreases in the ATP/ADPfree ratio via deamination, even though AMP-D activity is less. Isoforms of skeletal muscle AMP-D mRNAs in mixed-fiber muscle were not altered by feeding beta-GPA for up to 9 wk. Creatine depletion did not alter total immunoreactivity; however, a redistribution of AMP-D immunoreactivity from primarily an approximately 80-kDa form toward lower apparent molecular mass species (approximately 60 and approximately 56 kDa) was observed. Posttranslational changes in AMP-D appear related to changes in activity.

Abstract
A sheep antiserum against purified rabbit-heart adenylate deaminase (EC 3.5.4.6) (AMPD) was developed and validated as an immunologic probe to assess the cross-species tissue distribution of the mammalian cardiac AMPD isoform. The antiserum and the antibodies purified therefrom recognized both native and denatured rabbit-heart AMPD in immunoprecipitation and immunoblot experiments, respectively, and antibody binding did not affect native enzyme activity. The immunoprecipitation experiments further demonstrated a high antiserum titer. Immunoblot analysis of either crude rabbit-heart extracts or purified rabbit-heart AMPD revealed a major immunoreactive band with the molecular mass (approximately 81 kDa) of the soluble rabbit-heart AMPD subunit. AMPD in heart extracts from mammalian species other than rabbit (including human) was equally immunoreactive with this antiserum by quantitative immunoblot criteria. Although generally held to be in the same isoform class as heart AMPD, erythrocyte AMPD was not immunoreactive either within or across species. Nor was AMPD from most other tissues [e.g., white (gastrocnemius) muscle, lung, kidney] immunoreactive with the cardiac-directed antibody. Limited immunoreactivity was evidenced by mammalian liver, red (soleus) muscle, and brain extracts across species, indicating the presence of a minor cardiac(-like) AMPD isoform in these tissues. The results of this study characterize the tissue distribution of the cardiac AMPD isoform using a molecular approach with the first polyclonal antibodies prepared against homogeneous cardiac AMPD. This immunologic probe should prove useful at the tissue level for AMPD immunohistochemistry.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and adenine nucleotide catabolism occur concomitantly in several disease states, such as cardiac ischaemia-reperfusion, and may act as synergistic determinants of tissue injury. However, the mechanisms underlying this potential interaction remain ill-defined. We examined the influence of oxidative stress on the molecular, kinetic and regulatory properties of a ubiquitous AMP-catabolizing enzyme, adenylate deaminase (AMPD) (EC 3.5.4.6). To this intent, rabbit heart AMPD and an H2O2/ascorbate/iron oxidation system were employed. Enzyme exposure to the complete oxidation system acutely impaired its catalytic activity, lowered the Vmax. by 7-fold within 5 min, and rendered the enzyme unresponsive to nucleotide effectors. Irreversible AMPD inactivation resulted within about 15 min of oxidative insult and was not prevented by free-radical scavengers. Oxidative stress did not affect the molecular mass, tetrameric nature, Km, immunoreactivity or trypsinolytic pattern of the enzyme; nor did it induce carbonyl formation, Zn2+ release from the holoenzyme or net AMPD S-thiolation. This injury pattern is inconsistent with a radical-fragmentation mechanism as the basis for the oxidative AMPD inactivation observed. Rather, the sensitivity of the enzyme to both S-thiolation and thiol alkylation and the significant (3 of 9/mol of denatured enzyme) net loss of DTNB-reactive thiols on exposure to oxidant strongly implicate the conversion of essential thiol moieties into stable higher-oxidation states in the oxidative inactivation of cardiac AMPD. The altered thiol status of the enzyme on oxidative insult may prohibit a catalytically permissible conformation and, in so doing, increase AMP availability to 5'-nucleotidase in vivo.

Abstract
Effects of exercise on the distribution of phosphofructokinase (PFK), fructose-1,6-biphosphatase (FBPase), and AMP-deaminase between free and particulate-bound fractions was analyzed in white skeletal muscle of rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss. With a widely used technique for the separation of free and bound enzyme fractions (homogenization in low ionic strength, high sucrose buffer), the data showed that the amount of bound PFK increased from 64 to 95% during burst swimming whereas other enzymes were unaffected. Since this data for AMP-deaminase contrasted with earlier reports, different methods of separating free and bound enzyme were evaluated. A clear effect of exercise on AMP-deaminase binding occurred when high ionic strength media (either KCl or KF) were used; in extraction media containing 150 mM KCl, the percent bound rose from 30% in controls to 97% after 1 min burst swimming. Exercise also produced stable changes to AMP-deaminase kinetic properties, including for the bound enzyme (compared with the free) a 2-fold higher Km AMP, a 3-fold higher Ki for inorganic phosphate, and a 60% increase in Ka ADP after 1 min burst exercise. The data suggest that AMP-deaminase in working skeletal muscle is subject to combined controls by allosteric effectors, post-translational modification, and distribution between free and bound states.

Abstract
Adenylate deaminase (EC 3.5.4.6) may help to regulate the adenine nucleotide catabolism characteristic of such disease states as myocardial ischaemia. We report analysis of the molecular, kinetic and allosteric properties of rabbit heart adenylate deaminase when extracted and purified under phosphate-free conditions (i.e., with Hepes/KOH). The enzyme's subunit molecular mass (approximately 81 kDa), pI (6.5), substrate specificity for 5'-AMP, and activation by K+ were identical in the absence or presence of phosphate. At each chromatographic step during isolation without phosphate, cardiac adenylate deaminase showed a lower apparent activity as compared with the enzyme prepared with phosphate present. Kinetic constants for the phosphate-free rabbit heart adenylate deaminase preparation (Km 0.54 mM AMP; Vmax. 1.4 mumol/min per mg of protein) were approximately 10-fold lower than those of the enzyme isolated with phosphate. The same irreversible decrease in kinetic constants could be achieved by dialysing phosphate from the phosphate-containing enzyme preparation. The relationship between enzyme activity and substrate concentration was sigmoidal in the presence of phosphate, but hyperbolic in its absence. Cardiac adenylate deaminase under phosphate-free conditions was no longer allosterically activated by ATP and ADP, yet remained inhibitable by GTP. Enzyme inhibition by the transition-state mimic coformycin was not influenced by phosphate status. The phosphate-free preparation of rabbit heart adenylate deaminase was markedly labile and extremely susceptible to proteolysis by trypsin or chymotrypsin. The inactivation kinetics and fragmentation pattern in response to controlled proteolysis depended on whether the enzyme had been isolated with or without phosphate present, suggesting a conformational difference between the two enzyme preparations. These data constitute direct evidence that the absence of phosphate irreversibly converts cardiac adenylate deaminase into a pseudo-isoenzyme with distinct kinetic, regulatory and stability properties.

Abstract
Binding of human-recombinant transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) to the neonatal rat heart-muscle cell (cardiomyocyte) was characterized as a potential element in the cardioprotective pharmacology of this growth factor. The cardiomyocytes were found to express a single class of specific, high-affinity TGF-beta 1 binding sites. Ligand binding to these sites was rapid, saturable, selective, and reversible, characteristics of a receptor-mediated process. Scatchard and iterative non-linear least-squares regression analyses demonstrated that the cardiomyocyte TGF-beta 1 receptor had a Kd < or = 40 pM, a Bmax of approximately 3.4 fmol/10(6) cells, and a density of approximately 2000 binding sites/cell. Binding was selective for TGF-beta 1 as compared with other TGF-beta isoforms (i.e. TGF-beta 2 and -beta 3) and nonrelated cytokines (e.g. acidic fibroblast growth factor). Affinity-binding experiments to probe the molecular nature of the specific binding revealed three types of cardiomyocyte TGF-beta 1 binding proteins, the most prominent of which corresponded to the high-molecular-mass proteoglycan observed in nonmuscle cell types. These data raise the possibility that the known pharmacological effects of TGF-beta 1 on heart muscle may be direct actions via specific receptor-mediated events.
