A novel ryanodine receptor 2 inhibitor, M201-A, enhances natriuresis, renal function and lusi-inotropic actions: Preclinical and phase I study. Br J Pharmacol 2024; 181:3401-3419. [PMID: 38773354 DOI: 10.1111/bph.16379] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2023] [Revised: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) is present in both the heart and kidneys, and plays a crucial role in maintaining intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis in cells in these organs. This study aimed to investigate the impact of M201-A on RyR2, as well as studying its effects on cardiac and renal functions in preclinical and clinical studies. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Following the administration of M201-A (1,4-benzothiazepine-1-oxide derivative), we monitored diastolic Ca2+ leak via RyR2 and intracellular Ca2+ concentration in isolated rat cardiomyocytes and in cardiac and renal function in animals. In a clinical study, M201-A was administered intravenously at doses of 0.2 and 0.4 mg·kg-1 once daily for 20 min for four consecutive days in healthy males, with the assessment of haemodynamic responses. KEY RESULTS In rat heart cells, M201-A effectively inhibited spontaneous diastolic Ca2+ leakage through RyR2 and exhibited positive lusi-inotropic effects on the rat heart. Additionally, it enhanced natriuresis and improved renal function in dogs. In human clinical studies, when administered intravenously, M201-A demonstrated an increase in natriuresis, glomerular filtration rate and creatinine clearance, while maintaining acceptable levels of drug safety and tolerability. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS The novel drug M201-A inhibited diastolic Ca2+ leak via RyR2, improved cardiac lusi-inotropic effects in rats, and enhanced natriuresis and renal function in humans. These findings suggest that this drug may offer a potential new treatment option for chronic kidney disease and heart failure.

Novelties in the pharmacological approaches for chronic heart failure: new drugs and cardiovascular targets. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1157472. [PMID: 37332581 PMCID: PMC10272855 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1157472] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Despite recent advances in chronic heart failure (HF) management, the prognosis of HF patients is poor. This highlights the need for researching new drugs targeting, beyond neurohumoral and hemodynamic modulation approach, such as cardiomyocyte metabolism, myocardial interstitium, intracellular regulation and NO-sGC pathway. In this review we report main novelties on new possible pharmacological targets for HF therapy, mainly on new drugs acting on cardiac metabolism, GCs-cGMP pathway, mitochondrial function and intracellular calcium dysregulation.

Specific nephrotoxicity and cardiotoxicity of BT-CAL®, Sigma Anti-bonding Molecule Calcium Carbonate, in mice. Lab Anim Res 2013; 29:7-11. [PMID: 23573102 PMCID: PMC3616211 DOI: 10.5625/lar.2013.29.1.7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2013] [Revised: 02/26/2013] [Accepted: 02/28/2013] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
According to a high anti-osteoporotic efficacy of Sigma Anti-bonding Molecule Calcium Carbonate (SAC), repeated-dose toxicities of SAC were investigated to assess its feasibility as drug or functional food ingredient. Male ICR mice were given drinking water containing 0.006, 0.02 or 0.06% SAC for 4 weeks. SAC feeding decreased the body weights and feed and water consumptions of mice in a dose-dependent manner, especially, leading to severe emaciation and 70% death in 3 weeks in the high-dose (0.06%) group. Not only kidney and heart weights, but also the levels of blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, aspartate transaminase, and creatine phospokinase significantly increased after SAC administration, indicative of nephrotoxicity and cardiotoxicity. Such renal and cardiac toxicities were also confirmed by microscopic findings, exhibiting renal crystals and cardiac fibrosis, which may be due to the insoluble crystal formation and calcium overload, respectively. In conclusion, it is suggested that no observed adverse effect level of SAC is lower than 0.006% in mice, and that a long-term intake may cause serious adverse effects on renal and cardiac functions.

Abstract
RATIONALE The extent to which sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)ATPase (SERCA) activity alone determines left ventricular (LV) pump function is unknown. OBJECTIVE To correlate SERCA activity with hemodynamic function of rabbit LV during thapsigargin perfusion. METHODS AND RESULTS Isolated rabbit hearts were perfused in working heart configuration, and LV pump function was assessed using a pressure-volume catheter. Rapid and complete (>95%) inhibition of SERCA was associated with a moderate decrease in cardiac function (to 70%-85% of control). Further decrease in cardiac function to 50%-75% of control occurred over the next ≈ 30 minutes despite no detectable further inhibition of SERCA activity. Analysis of the 20 seconds prior to pump failure revealed a rapid decrease in end diastolic volume. Intermediate levels of SERCA function (≈ 50% of control) had only minor hemodynamic effects. Parallel experiments in field-stimulated isolated ventricular cardiomyocytes monitored intracellular Ca(2+) and cell shortening. On perfusion with thapsigargin, Ca(2+) transient amplitude and cell shortening fell to ≈ 70% of control followed by increased diastolic Ca(2+) concentration and diastolic cell shortening to achieve a new steady state. CONCLUSIONS The relationship between SERCA activity and LV function in the rabbit is highly nonlinear. In the short term, only moderate effects on LV pump function were observed despite almost complete (>95%) reduction in SERCA activity. The terminal decline of function was associated with sudden sustained increase in diastolic tone comparable to the sustained contraction observed in isolated cardiomyocytes. Secondary increases of intracellular Ca(2+) and Na(+) following complete SERCA inhibition eventually limit contractile function and precipitate LV pump failure.
