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: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [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.

Abstract
Biochemical reactions in cells serve as the endogenous source of heat, maintaining a constant body temperature. This process requires proper control; otherwise, serious consequences can arise due to the unwanted but unavoidable responses of biological systems to heat. This review aims to present a range of responses to heat in biological systems across various spatial scales. We begin by examining the impaired thermogenesis of malignant hyperthermia in model mice and skeletal muscle cells, demonstrating that the progression of this disease is caused by a positive feedback loop between thermally driven Ca2+ signaling and thermogenesis at the subcellular scale. After we explore thermally driven force generation in both muscle and non-muscle cells, we illustrate how in vitro assays using purified proteins can reveal the heat-responsive properties of proteins and protein assemblies. Building on these experimental findings, we propose the concept of 'trans-scale thermal signaling'.

Abstract
Ryanodine receptor (RyR) has been used as an insecticide target to control many destructive agricultural pests. The effectiveness of these insecticides has been limited by the spread of resistance mutations identified in pest RyRs, but the detailed molecular impacts of the individual mutations on the activity of different diamide compounds have not been fully explored. We created five HEK293 cell lines stably expressing wild type rabbit RyR1, wild type Spodoptera frugiperda RyR (Sf RyR), or Sf RyR carrying different resistance mutations, including G4891E, G4891E/I4734M, and Y4867F, respectively. R-CEPIA1er, a genetically encoded fluorescent protein, was also introduced in these cell lines to report the Ca2+ concentration in the endoplasmic reticulum. We systematically characterized the activities of six commercial diamide insecticides against different RyRs using the time-lapse fluorescence assay. Among them, cyantraniliprole (CYAN) displayed the highest activity against all three resistant Sf RyRs. The good performance of CYAN was confirmed by the toxicity assay using gene-edited Drosophila expressing the mutant RyRs, in which CYAN showed the lowest LD50 value for the double resistant mutant. In addition, we compared their acitivty between mammalian and insect RyRs and found that flubendiamide has the best insect-selectivity. The mechanism of the anti-resistance property and selectivity of the compounds was proposed based on the structural models generated by homology modeling and molecular docking. Our findings provide insights into the mechanism of insect resistance and guidance for developing effective RyR agonists that can selectively target resistant pests.

Abstract
Rhabdomyosarcomas have been described in association with thyroid disease, dermatomyositis, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, and in muscular dystrophy models but not in patients with ryanodine receptor-1 gene (RYR1) pathogenic variants. We described here an 18-year-old male who reported a cervical nodule. Magnetic resonance images revealed a mass in the ethmoidal sinus corresponding to rhabdomyosarcoma. As his father died from malignant hyperthermia (MH), an in vitro contracture test was conducted and was positive for MH susceptibility. Muscle histopathological analysis in the biopsy showed the presence of cores. Molecular analysis using NGS sequencing identified germline variants in the RYR1 and ASPSCR1 (alveolar soft part sarcoma) genes. This report expands the spectrum of diseases associated with rhabdomyosarcomas and a possible differential diagnosis of soft tissue tumors in patients with RYR1 variants.

Abstract
Ryanodine receptors (RyR) are intracellular calcium (Ca2+) release channels on the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal and cardiac muscles that play a central role in excitation-contraction coupling. Genetic mutations or posttranslational modifications of RyR causes hyperactivation of the channel, leading to various skeletal muscle and heart diseases. Currently, no specific treatments exist for most RyR-associated diseases. Recently, high-throughput screening (HTS) assays have been developed to identify potential candidates for treating RyR-related muscle diseases. These assays have successfully identified several compounds as novel RyR inhibitors, which are effective in animal models. In this review, we will focus on recent progress in HTS assays and discuss future perspectives of these promising approaches.

Abstract
Type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1) is an intracellular Ca2+ release channel on the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle, and it plays a central role in excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling. Mutations in RyR1 are implicated in various muscle diseases including malignant hyperthermia, central core disease, and myopathies. Currently, no specific treatment exists for most of these diseases. Recently, high-throughput screening (HTS) assays have been developed for identifying potential candidates for treating RyR-related muscle diseases. Currently, two different methods, namely a FRET-based assay and an endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-based assay, are available. These assays identified several compounds as novel RyR1 inhibitors. In addition, the development of a reconstituted platform permitted HTS assays for E-C coupling modulators. In this review, we will focus on recent progress in HTS assays and discuss future perspectives of these promising approaches.

Abstract
Mutations in RyR alter the cell's Ca2+ homeostasis and can cause serious health problems for which few effective therapies are available. Until recently, there was little structural context for the hundreds of mutations linked to muscular disorders reported for this large channel. Growing knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of RyR starts to illustrate the fine control of Ca2+ release. Current efforts directed towards understanding how disease mutations impinge in such processes will be crucial for future design of novel therapies. In this review article we discuss the up-to-date information about mutations according to their role in the 3D structure, and classified them to provide context from a structural perspective.

Abstract
In skeletal muscle excitation-contraction (E-C) coupling, depolarization of the plasma membrane triggers Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), referred to as depolarization-induced Ca2+ release (DICR). DICR occurs through the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1), which physically interacts with the dihydropyridine receptor Cav1.1 subunit in specific machinery formed with additional essential components including β1a, Stac3 adaptor protein, and junctophilins. Exome sequencing has accelerated the discovery of many novel mutations in genes encoding DICR machinery in various skeletal muscle diseases. However, functional validation is time-consuming because it must be performed in a skeletal muscle environment. In this study, we established a platform of the reconstituted DICR in HEK293 cells. The essential components were effectively transduced into HEK293 cells expressing RyR1 using baculovirus vectors, and Ca2+ release was quantitatively measured with R-CEPIA1er, a fluorescent ER Ca2+ indicator, without contaminant of extracellular Ca2+ influx. In these cells, [K+]-dependent Ca2+ release was triggered by chemical depolarization with the aid of inward rectifying potassium channel, indicating a successful reconstitution of DICR. Using the platform, we evaluated several Cav1.1 mutations that are implicated in malignant hyperthermia and myopathy. We also tested several RyR1 inhibitors; whereas dantrolene and Cpd1 inhibited DICR, procaine had no effect. Furthermore, twitch potentiators such as perchlorate and thiocyanate shifted the voltage dependence of DICR to more negative potentials without affecting Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release. These results well reproduced the findings with the muscle fibers and the cultured myotubes. Since the procedure is simple and reproducible, the reconstituted DICR platform will be highly useful for the validation of mutations and drug discovery for skeletal muscle diseases.

Abstract
Type 1 ryanodine receptor (RYR1) is a Ca2+ release channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of the skeletal muscle and plays a critical role in excitation-contraction coupling. Mutations in RYR1 cause severe muscle diseases, such as malignant hyperthermia, a disorder of Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release (CICR) through RYR1 from the SR. We recently reported that volatile anesthetics induce malignant hyperthermia (MH)-like episodes through enhanced CICR in heterozygous R2509C-RYR1 mice. However, the characterization of Ca2+ dynamics has yet to be investigated in skeletal muscle cells from homozygous mice because these animals die in utero. In the present study, we generated primary cultured skeletal myocytes from R2509C-RYR1 mice. No differences in cellular morphology were detected between wild type (WT) and mutant myocytes. Spontaneous Ca2+ transients and cellular contractions occurred in WT and heterozygous myocytes, but not in homozygous myocytes. Electron microscopic observation revealed that the sarcomere length was shortened to ∼1.7 µm in homozygous myocytes, as compared to ∼2.2 and ∼2.3 µm in WT and heterozygous myocytes, respectively. Consistently, the resting intracellular Ca2+ concentration was higher in homozygous myocytes than in WT or heterozygous myocytes, which may be coupled with a reduced Ca2+ concentration in the SR. Finally, using infrared laser-based microheating, we found that heterozygous myocytes showed larger heat-induced Ca2+ transients than WT myocytes. Our findings suggest that the R2509C mutation in RYR1 causes dysfunctional Ca2+ dynamics in a mutant-gene dose-dependent manner in the skeletal muscles, in turn provoking MH-like episodes and embryonic lethality in heterozygous and homozygous mice, respectively.

Heat-hypersensitive mutants of ryanodine receptor type 1 revealed by microscopic heating. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2022; 119:e2201286119.

Abstract
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a life-threatening disorder caused largely by mutations in ryanodine receptor type 1 (RyR1) Ca2+-release channels. Enhanced Ca2+ release through the mutant channels induces excessive heat development upon exposure to volatile anesthetics. However, the mechanism by which Ca2+ release is accelerated at an elevated temperature is yet to be identified. Fluorescence Ca2+ imaging with rapid heating by an infrared laser beam provides direct evidence that heat induces Ca2+ release through the RyR1 channel. And the mutant channels are more heat sensitive than the wild-type channels, thereby causing an increase in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration in mutant cells. It is likely that the heat-induced Ca2+ release participates as an enhancer in the cellular mechanism of MH. Thermoregulation is an important aspect of human homeostasis, and high temperatures pose serious stresses for the body. Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a life-threatening disorder in which body temperature can rise to a lethal level. Here we employ an optically controlled local heat-pulse method to manipulate the temperature in cells with a precision of less than 1 °C and find that the mutants of ryanodine receptor type 1 (RyR1), a key Ca2+ release channel underlying MH, are heat hypersensitive compared with the wild type (WT). We show that the local heat pulses induce an intracellular Ca2+ burst in human embryonic kidney 293 cells overexpressing WT RyR1 and some RyR1 mutants related to MH. Fluorescence Ca2+ imaging using the endoplasmic reticulum–targeted fluorescent probes demonstrates that the Ca2+ burst originates from heat-induced Ca2+ release (HICR) through RyR1-mutant channels because of the channels’ heat hypersensitivity. Furthermore, the variation in the heat hypersensitivity of four RyR1 mutants highlights the complexity of MH. HICR likewise occurs in skeletal muscles of MH model mice. We propose that HICR contributes an additional positive feedback to accelerate thermogenesis in patients with MH.

Molecular mechanism of the severe MH/CCD mutation Y522S in skeletal ryanodine receptor (RyR1) by cryo-EM. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2022; 119:e2122140119.

Abstract
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are main regulators of intracellular Ca2+ release and muscle contraction. The Y522S mutation of RyR1 causes central core disease, a weakening myopathy, and malignant hyperthermia, a sudden and potentially fatal response to anesthetics or heat. Y522 is in the core of the N-terminal subdomain C of RyR1 and the mechanism of how this mutation orchestrates malfunction is unpredictable for this 2-MDa ion channel, which has four identical subunits composed of 15 distinct cytoplasmic domains each. We expressed and purified the RyR1 rabbit homolog, Y523S, from HEK293 cells and reconstituted it in nanodiscs under closed and open states. The high-resolution cryogenic electron microscopic (cryo-EM) three-dimensional (3D) structures show that the phenyl ring of Tyr functions in a manner analogous to a "spacer" within an α-helical bundle. Mutation to the much smaller Ser alters the hydrophobic network within the bundle, triggering rearrangement of its α-helices with repercussions in the orientation of most cytoplasmic domains. Examining the mutation-induced readjustments exposed a series of connected α-helices acting as an ∼100 Å-long lever: One end protrudes toward the dihydropyridine receptor, its molecular activator (akin to an antenna), while the other end reaches the Ca2+ activation site. The Y523S mutation elicits channel preactivation in the absence of any activator and full opening at 1.5 µM free Ca2+, increasing by ∼20-fold the potency of Ca2+ to activate the channel compared with RyR1 wild type (WT). This study identified a preactivated pathological state of RyR1 and a long-range lever that may work as a molecular switch to open the channel.

Abstract
Type 2 ryanodine receptor (RYR2) is a cardiac Ca2+ release channel in the ER. Mutations in RYR2 are linked to catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). CPVT is associated with enhanced spontaneous Ca2+ release, which tends to occur when [Ca2+]ER reaches a threshold. Mutations lower the threshold [Ca2+]ER by increasing luminal Ca2+ sensitivity or enhancing cytosolic [Ca2+] ([Ca2+]cyt)-dependent activity. Here, to establish the mechanism relating the change in [Ca2+]cyt-dependent activity of RYR2 and the threshold [Ca2+]ER, we carried out cell-based experiments and in silico simulations. We expressed WT and CPVT-linked mutant RYR2s in HEK293 cells and measured [Ca2+]cyt and [Ca2+]ER using fluorescent Ca2+ indicators. CPVT RYR2 cells showed higher oscillation frequency and lower threshold [Ca2+]ER than WT cells. The [Ca2+]cyt-dependent activity at resting [Ca2+]cyt, Arest, was greater in CPVT mutants than in WT, and we found an inverse correlation between threshold [Ca2+]ER and Arest. In addition, lowering RYR2 expression increased the threshold [Ca2+]ER and a product of Arest, and the relative expression level for each mutant correlated with threshold [Ca2+]ER, suggesting that the threshold [Ca2+]ER depends on the net Ca2+ release rate via RYR2. Modeling reproduced Ca2+ oscillations with [Ca2+]cyt and [Ca2+]ER changes in WT and CPVT cells. Interestingly, the [Ca2+]cyt-dependent activity of specific mutations correlated with the age of disease onset in patients carrying them. Our data suggest that the reduction in threshold [Ca2+]ER for spontaneous Ca2+ release by CPVT mutation is explained by enhanced [Ca2+]cyt-dependent activity without requiring modulation of the [Ca2+]ER sensitivity of RYR2.

Abstract
Type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1) plays a key role in Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) during excitation-contraction coupling of skeletal muscle. Mutations in RyR1 hyperactivate the channel to cause malignant hyperthermia (MH). MH is a serious complication characterized by skeletal muscle rigidity and elevated body temperature in response to commonly used inhalational anesthetics. Thus far, more than 300 mutations in RyR1 gene have been reported in patients with MH. Some heat stroke triggered by exercise or environmental heat stress is also related to MH mutations in the RyR1 gene. The only drug approved for ameliorating the symptoms of MH is dantrolene, which has been first developed in 1960s as a muscle relaxant. However, dantrolene has several disadvantages for clinical use: poor water solubility which makes rapid preparation difficult in emergency situations and long plasma half-life, which causes long-lasting side effects such as muscle weakness. Here we show that a novel RyR1-selective inhibitor, 6,7-(methylenedioxy)-1-octyl-4-quinolone-3-carboxylic acid (Compound 1, Cpd1), effectively rescues MH and heat stroke in new mouse model relevant to MH. Cpd1 has great advantages of higher water solubility and shorter plasma half-life compared to dantrolene. Our data suggest that Cpd1 has the potential to be a promising new candidate for effective treatment of patients carrying RyR1 mutations.

Abstract
Bromopyrroles (BrPyr) are synthesized naturally by marine sponge symbionts and produced anthropogenically as byproducts of wastewater treatment. BrPyr interact with ryanodine receptors (RYRs) and sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER) Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA). Influences of BrPyr on the neuronal network activity remain uncharted. BrPyr analogues with differing spectra of RYR/SERCA activities were tested using RYR-null or RYR1-expressing HEK293 and murine cortical neuronal/glial cocultures (NGCs) loaded with Fluo-4 to elucidate their mechanisms altering Ca2+ dynamics. The NGC electrical spike activity (ESA) was measured from NGCs plated on multielectrode arrays. Nanomolar tetrabromopyrrole (TBP, 1) potentiated caffeine-triggered Ca2+ release independent of extracellular [Ca2+] in RYR1-HEK293, whereas higher concentrations produce slow and sustained rise in cytoplasmic [Ca2+] independent of RYR1 expression. TBP, 2,3,5-tribromopyrrole (2), pyrrole (3), 2,3,4-tribromopyrrole (4), and ethyl 4-bromopyrrole-2-carboxylate (5) added acutely to NGC showed differential potency; rank order TBP (IC50 ≈ 220 nM) > 2 ≫ 5, whereas 3 and 4 were inactive at 10 μM. TBP >2 μM elicited sustained elevation of cytoplasmic [Ca2+] and loss of neuronal viability. TBP did not alter network ESA. BrPyr from marine and anthropogenic sources are ecological signaling molecules and emerging anthropogenic pollutants of concern to environmental and human health that potently alter ER Ca2+ dynamics and warrant further investigation in vivo.

Abstract
AIMS Gain-of-function mutations in RYR2, encoding the cardiac ryanodine receptor channel (RyR2), cause catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Whereas, genotype-phenotype correlations of loss-of-function mutations remains unknown, due to a small number of analysed mutations. In this study, we aimed to investigate their genotype-phenotype correlations in patients with loss-of-function RYR2 mutations. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed targeted gene sequencing for 710 probands younger than 16-year-old with inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS). RYR2 mutations were identified in 63 probands, and 3 probands displayed clinical features different from CPVT. A proband with p.E4146D developed ventricular fibrillation (VF) and QT prolongation whereas that with p.S4168P showed QT prolongation and bradycardia. Another proband with p.S4938F showed short-coupled variant of torsade de pointes (scTdP). To evaluate the functional alterations in these three mutant RyR2s and p.K4594Q previously reported in a long QT syndrome (LQTS), we measured Ca2+ signals in HEK293 cells and HL-1 cardiomyocytes as well as Ca2+-dependent [3H]ryanodine binding. All mutant RyR2s demonstrated a reduced Ca2+ release, an increased endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+, and a reduced [3H]ryanodine binding, indicating loss-of-functions. In HL-1 cells, the exogenous expression of S4168P and K4594Q reduced amplitude of Ca2+ transients without inducing Ca2+ waves, whereas that of E4146D and S4938F evoked frequent localized Ca2+ waves. CONCLUSION Loss-of-function RYR2 mutations may be implicated in various types of arrhythmias including LQTS, VF, and scTdP, depending on alteration of the channel activity. Search of RYR2 mutations in IPAS patients clinically different from CPVT will be a useful strategy to effectively discover loss-of-function RYR2 mutations.

Abstract
Molecular bases of pathogenic enhancement of Ca2+ release channel activities in RYR1 carrying disease-associated mutations at the N-terminal region were studied. Functional studies and MD simulation revealed that the interactions between domains have a strong correlation with channel activity. Type 1 ryanodine receptor (RYR1) is a Ca2+ release channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum in skeletal muscle and plays an important role in excitation–contraction coupling. Mutations in the RYR1 gene cause severe muscle diseases such as malignant hyperthermia (MH), which is a disorder of CICR via RYR1. Thus far, >300 mutations in RYR1 have been reported in patients with MH. However, owing to a lack of comprehensive analysis of the structure–function relationship of mutant RYR1, the mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, we combined functional studies and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of RYR1 bearing disease-associated mutations at the N-terminal region. When expressed in HEK293 cells, the mutant RYR1 caused abnormalities in Ca2+ homeostasis. MD simulations of WT and mutant RYR1s were performed using crystal structure of the N-terminal domain (NTD) monomer, consisting of A, B, and C domains. We found that the mutations located around the interdomain region differentially affected hydrogen bonds/salt bridges. Particularly, mutations at R402, which increase the open probability of the channel, cause clockwise rotation of BC domains with respect to the A domain by alteration of the interdomain interactions. Similar results were also obtained with artificial mutations that mimic alteration of the interactions. Our results reveal the importance of interdomain interactions within the NTD in the regulation of the RYR1 channel and provide insights into the mechanism of MH caused by the mutations at the NTD.

Abstract
Recent studies using intracellular thermometers have shown that the temperature inside cultured single cells varies heterogeneously on the order of 1°C. However, the reliability of intracellular thermometry has been challenged both experimentally and theoretically because it is, in principle, exceedingly difficult to exclude the effects of nonthermal factors on the thermometers. To accurately measure cellular temperatures from outside of cells, we developed novel thermometry with fluorescent thermometer nanosheets, allowing for noninvasive global temperature mapping of cultured single cells. Various types of cells, i.e., HeLa/HEK293 cells, brown adipocytes, cardiomyocytes, and neurons, were cultured on nanosheets containing the temperature-sensitive fluorescent dye europium (III) thenoyltrifluoroacetonate trihydrate. First, we found that the difference in temperature on the nanosheet between nonexcitable HeLa/HEK293 cells and the culture medium was less than 0.2°C. The expression of mutated type 1 ryanodine receptors (R164C or Y523S) in HEK293 cells that cause Ca2+ leak from the endoplasmic reticulum did not change the cellular temperature greater than 0.1°C. Yet intracellular thermometry detected an increase in temperature of greater than ∼2°C at the endoplasmic reticulum in HeLa cells upon ionomycin-induced intracellular Ca2+ burst; global cellular temperature remained nearly constant within ±0.2°C. When rat neonatal cardiomyocytes or brown adipocytes were stimulated by a mitochondrial uncoupling reagent, the temperature was nearly unchanged within ±0.1°C. In cardiomyocytes, the temperature was stable within ±0.01°C during contractions when electrically stimulated at 2 Hz. Similarly, when rat hippocampal neurons were electrically stimulated at 0.25 Hz, the temperature was stable within ±0.03°C. The present findings with nonexcitable and excitable cells demonstrate that heat produced upon activation in single cells does not uniformly increase cellular temperature on a global basis, but merely forms a local temperature gradient on the order of ∼1°C just proximal to a heat source, such as the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum ATPase.

Abstract
Mutations in ryanodine receptors (RyRs), intracellular Ca2+ channels, are associated with deadly disorders. Despite abundant functional studies, the molecular mechanism of RyR malfunction remains elusive. We studied two single-point mutations at an equivalent site in the skeletal (RyR1 R164C) and cardiac (RyR2 R176Q) isoforms using ryanodine binding, Ca2+ imaging, and cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) of the full-length protein. Loss of the positive charge had greater effect on the skeletal isoform, mediated via distortion of a salt bridge network, a molecular latch inducing rotation of a cytoplasmic domain, and partial progression to open-state traits of the large cytoplasmic assembly accompanied by alteration of the Ca2+ binding site, which concur with the major "hyperactive" feature of the mutated channel. Our cryo-EM studies demonstrated the allosteric effect of a mutation situated ~85 Å away from the pore and identified an isoform-specific structural effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pathogenic variations in the gene encoding the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1) are associated with malignant hyperthermia (MH) susceptibility, a life-threatening hypermetabolic condition and RYR1-related myopathies (RYR1-RM), a spectrum of rare neuromuscular disorders. In RYR1-RM, intracellular calcium dysregulation, post-translational modifications, and decreased protein expression lead to a heterogenous clinical presentation including proximal muscle weakness, contractures, scoliosis, respiratory insufficiency, and ophthalmoplegia. Preclinical model systems of RYR1-RM and MH have been developed to better understand underlying pathomechanisms and test potential therapeutics. METHODS We conducted a comprehensive scoping review of scientific literature pertaining to RYR1-RM and MH preclinical model systems in accordance with the PRISMA Scoping Reviews Checklist and the framework proposed by Arksey and O'Malley. Two major electronic databases (PubMed and EMBASE) were searched without language restriction for articles and abstracts published between January 1, 1990 and July 3, 2019. RESULTS Our search yielded 5049 publications from which 262 were included in this review. A majority of variants tested in RYR1 preclinical models were localized to established MH/central core disease (MH/CCD) hot spots. A total of 250 unique RYR1 variations were reported in human/rodent/porcine models with 95% being missense substitutions. The most frequently reported RYR1 variant was R614C/R615C (human/porcine total n = 39), followed by Y523S/Y524S (rabbit/mouse total n = 30), I4898T/I4897T/I4895T (human/rabbit/mouse total n = 20), and R163C/R165C (human/mouse total n = 18). The dyspedic mouse was utilized by 47% of publications in the rodent category and its RyR1-null (1B5) myotubes were transfected in 23% of publications in the cellular model category. In studies of transfected HEK-293 cells, 57% of RYR1 variations affected the RyR1 channel and activation core domain. A total of 15 RYR1 mutant mouse strains were identified of which ten were heterozygous, three were compound heterozygous, and a further two were knockout. Porcine, avian, zebrafish, C. elegans, canine, equine, and drosophila model systems were also reported. CONCLUSIONS Over the past 30 years, there were 262 publications on MH and RYR1-RM preclinical model systems featuring more than 200 unique RYR1 variations tested in a broad range of species. Findings from these studies have set the foundation for therapeutic development for MH and RYR1-RM.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1) is a major skeletal muscle calcium release channel located in the sarcoplasmic reticulum and involved in excitation-contraction coupling. Variants in the gene encoding RyR1 have been linked to a range of neuromuscular disorders including myopathies and malignant hyperthermia (MH). OBJECTIVE We have identified three RYR1 variants (c.1983 G>A, p.Trp661*; c.7025A>G, p.Asn2342Ser and c.2447 C>T, p.Pro816Leu) in a family with a suspected myopathy and associated malignant hyperthermia susceptibility. We used calcium release assays to functionally characterise these variants in a recombinant system. METHODS Site-directed mutagenesis was used to introduce each variant separately into the human RYR1 cDNA. HEK293-T cells were transfected with the recombinant constructs and calcium release assays were carried out using 4-chloro-m-cresol (4-CmC) as the RyR1 agonist to investigate the functional consequences of each variant. RESULTS RYR1 c.1983 G>A, p.Trp661* resulted in a non-functional channel, c.7025A>G, p.Asn2342Ser in a hypersensitive channel and c.2447 C>T, p.Pro816Leu in a hypersensitive channel at higher concentrations of 4-CmC. CONCLUSIONS The p.Trp661* RYR1 variant should be considered as a risk factor for myopathies. The p.Asn2342Ser RYR1 variant, when expressed as a compound heterozygote with a nonsense mutation on the second allele, is likely to result in MH-susceptibility. The role of the p.Pro816Leu variant in MH remains unclear.

Abstract
Background: Central core disease and malignant hyperthermia are human disorders of skeletal muscle resulting from aberrant Ca2+ handling. Most malignant hyperthermia and central core disease cases are associated with amino acid changes in the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1), the skeletal muscle Ca2+-release channel. Malignant hyperthermia exhibits a gain-of-function phenotype, and central core disease results from loss of channel function. For a variant to be classified as pathogenic, functional studies must demonstrate a correlation with the pathophysiology of malignant hyperthermia or central core disease. Objective: We assessed the pathogenicity of four C-terminal variants of the ryanodine receptor using functional analysis. The variants were identified in families affected by either malignant hyperthermia or central core disease. Methods: Four variants were introduced separately into human cDNA encoding the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor. Following transient expression in HEK-293T cells, functional studies were carried out using calcium release assays in response to an agonist. Two previously characterized variants and wild-type skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor were used as controls. Results: The p.Met4640Ile variant associated with central core disease showed no difference in calcium release compared to wild-type. The p.Val4849Ile variant associated with malignant hyperthermia was more sensitive to agonist than wild-type but did not reach statistical significance and two variants (p.Phe4857Ser and p.Asp4918Asn) associated with central core disease were completely inactive. Conclusions: The p.Val4849Ile variant should be considered a risk factor for malignant hyperthermia, while the p.Phe4857Ser and p.Asp4918Asn variants should be classified as pathogenic for central core disease.

Abstract
Cryoelectron microscopy and mutational analyses have shown that type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1) amino acid residues RyR1-E3893, -E3967, and -T5001 are critical for Ca2+-mediated activation of skeletal muscle Ca2+ release channel. De novo missense mutation RyR1-Q3970K in the secondary binding sphere of Ca2+ was reported in association with central core disease (CCD) in a 2-yr-old boy. Here, we characterized recombinant RyR1-Q3970K mutant by cellular Ca2+ release measurements, single-channel recordings, and computational methods. Caffeine-induced Ca2+ release studies indicated that RyR1-Q3970K formed caffeine-sensitive, Ca2+-conducting channel in HEK293 cells. However, in single-channel recordings, RyR1-Q3970K displayed low Ca2+-dependent channel activity and greatly reduced activation by caffeine or ATP. A RyR1-Q3970E mutant corresponds to missense mutation RyR2-Q3925E associated with arrhythmogenic syndrome in cardiac muscle. RyR1-Q3970E also formed caffeine-induced Ca2+ release in HEK293 cells and exhibited low activity in the presence of the activating ligand Ca2+ but, in contrast to RyR1-Q3970K, was activated by ATP and caffeine in single-channel recordings. Computational analyses suggested distinct structural rearrangements in the secondary binding sphere of Ca2+ of the two mutants, whereas the interaction of Ca2+ with directly interacting RyR1 amino acid residues Glu3893, Glu3967, and Thr5001 was only minimally affected. We conclude that RyR1-Q3970 has a critical role in Ca2+-dependent activation of RyR1 and that a missense RyR1-Q3970K mutant may give rise to myopathy in skeletal muscle.

Abstract
The skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR1), i.e., the Ca2+ channel of the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (S/ER), and the voltage-dependent calcium channel Cav1.1 are the principal channels involved in excitation-contraction coupling in skeletal muscle. RYR1 gene variants are linked to distinct skeletal muscle disorders, including malignant hyperthermia susceptibility and central core disease (CCD), mainly with autosomal dominant inheritance, and autosomal recessive myopathies with a broad phenotypic and histopathological spectrum. The age at onset of RYR1-related myopathies varies from infancy to adulthood. We report the identification of four RYR1 variants in two Italian families: one with myopathy and variants c.4003C>T (p.R1335C) and c.7035C>A (p.S2345R), and another with CCD and variants c.9293G>T (p.S3098I) and c.14771_14772insTAGACAGGGTGTTGCTCTGTTGCCCTTCTT (p.F4924_V4925insRQGVALLPFF). We demonstrate that, in patient-specific lymphoblastoid cells, the c.4003C>T (p.R1335C) variant is not expressed and the in-frame 30-nucleotide insertion variant is expressed at a low level. Moreover, Ca2+ release in response to the RyR1 agonist 4-chloro-m-cresol and to thapsigargin showed that the c.7035C>A (p.S2345R) variant causes depletion of S/ER Ca2+ stores and that the compound heterozygosity for variant c.9293G>T (p.S3098I) and the 30-nucleotide insertion increases RyR1-dependent Ca2+ release without affecting ER Ca2+ stores. In conclusion, we detected and functionally characterized disease-causing variants of the RyR1 channel in patient-specific lymphoblastoid cells. This paper is dedicated to the memory and contribution of Luigi Del Vecchio.

Abstract
PURPOSE The present report of two fatal awake malignant hyperthermia (MH) episodes in an MH susceptible (MHS) family is intended to raise awareness among medical personnel and MHS individuals to the possibility of life-threatening non-anesthesia-triggered MH episodes and to provide a strong incentive for development of effective preventive measures. CLINICAL FEATURES Two young athletic males (28 and 16 yr old), members of the same extended family with a history of anesthesia-related MH episodes and deaths, succumbed ten years apart on two different continents, with symptoms unrelated to anesthesia but strikingly similar to typical anesthetic-induced MH. Both suffered an abrupt surge in body temperature, tachycardia, tachypnea, muscle rigidity, hyperkalemia, and respiratory and metabolic acidosis. Despite aggressive resuscitation attempts, both developed cardiac arrest and died shortly upon arrival to hospital emergency departments. Autopsy analyses were negative for drugs, alcohol, or bacterial infection. Individual and familial genetic analyses revealed a novel, potentially pathogenic RYR1 variant (p.Gly159Arg) that co-segregates with the MHS phenotype in the family. Both fatal awake MH episodes are hypothesized to have been triggered by physical exertion compounded with a febrile illness that in one case was due to influenza type A. CONCLUSIONS Life-threatening awake MH episodes may develop in some MHS individuals in the absence of anesthetic triggers. Potential triggers can be physical exertion in combination with a febrile illness. Malignant hyperthermia susceptible patients are recommended to be vaccinated against flu and restrict physical activities when febrile, wear an MH alert bracelet, and inform medical personnel of their MH history. Oral dantrolene is suggested to be available to MHS patients for administration with the early signs of awake MH.

Abstract
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are Ca2+ release channels in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal and cardiac muscles and are essential for muscle contraction. Mutations in genes encoding RyRs cause various muscle and arrhythmogenic heart diseases. Although RyR channels are activated by Ca2+, the actual mechanism of Ca2+ binding remains largely unknown. Here, we report the molecular basis of Ca2+ binding to RyRs for channel activation and discuss its implications in disease states. RyR1 and RyR2 carrying mutations in putative Ca2+ and caffeine-binding sites were functionally analysed. The results were interpreted with respect to recent near-atomic resolution RyR1 structures in various ligand states. We demonstrate that a tryptophan residue in the caffeine-binding site controls the structure of the Ca2+-binding site to regulate the Ca2+ sensitivity. Our results reveal the initial step of RyR channel activation by Ca2+ and explain the molecular mechanism of Ca2+ sensitization by caffeine and disease-causing mutations. Takashi Murayama et al. report the molecular basis of calcium binding to ryanodine receptors, a process essential for muscle contraction. They find that a tryptophan residue in the caffeine binding site controls the structure of the calcium binding site, affecting calcium sensitivity.

Abstract
Genetic testing has multiple clinical applications including disease risk assessment, diagnosis, and pharmacogenomics. Pharmacogenomics can be utilized to predict whether a pharmacologic therapy will be effective or to identify patients at risk for treatment-related toxicity. Although genetic tests are typically ordered for a distinct clinical purpose, the genetic variants that are found may have additional implications for either disease or pharmacology. This review will address multiple examples of germline genetic variants that are informative for both disease and pharmacogenomics. The discussed relationships are diverse. Some of the agents are targeted for the disease-causing genetic variant, while others, although not targeted therapies, have implications for the disease they are used to treat. It is also possible that the disease implications of a genetic variant are unrelated to the pharmacogenomic implications. Some of these examples are considered clinically actionable pharmacogenes, with evidence-based, pharmacologic treatment recommendations, while others are still investigative as areas for additional research. It is important that clinicians are aware of both the disease and pharmacogenomic associations of these germline genetic variants to ensure patients are receiving comprehensive personalized care.

Extensive Ca2+ leak through K4750Q cardiac ryanodine receptors caused by cytosolic and luminal Ca2+ hypersensitivity. J Gen Physiol 2017; 149:199-218.

Abstract
The K4750Q mutation in ryanodine receptor 2 causes severe catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. Uehara et al. reveal extensive Ca2+ leak through this mutant receptor and show it is caused by altered gating kinetics, increased Ca2+ sensitivity, and the absence of Ca2+-dependent inactivation. Various ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) point mutations cause catecholamine-induced polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), a life-threatening arrhythmia evoked by diastolic intracellular Ca2+ release dysfunction. These mutations occur in essential regions of RyR2 that regulate Ca2+ release. The molecular dysfunction caused by CPVT-associated RyR2 mutations as well as the functional consequences remain unresolved. Here, we study the most severe CPVT-associated RyR2 mutation (K4750Q) known to date. We define the molecular and cellular dysfunction generated by this mutation and detail how it alters RyR2 function, using Ca2+ imaging, ryanodine binding, and single-channel recordings. HEK293 cells and cardiac HL-1 cells expressing RyR2-K4750Q show greatly enhanced spontaneous Ca2+ oscillations. An endoplasmic reticulum–targeted Ca2+ sensor, R-CEPIA1er, revealed that RyR2-K4750Q mediates excessive diastolic Ca2+ leak, which dramatically reduces luminal [Ca2+]. We further show that the K4750Q mutation causes three RyR2 defects: hypersensitization to activation by cytosolic Ca2+, loss of cytosolic Ca2+/Mg2+-mediated inactivation, and hypersensitization to luminal Ca2+ activation. These defects combine to kinetically stabilize RyR2-K4750Q openings, thus explaining the extensive diastolic Ca2+ leak from the sarcoplasmic reticulum, frequent Ca2+ waves, and severe CPVT phenotype. As the multiple concurrent defects are induced by a single point mutation, the K4750 residue likely resides at a critical structural point at which cytosolic and luminal RyR2 control input converge.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ventricular fibrillation may be caused by premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) whose coupling intervals are <300 ms, a characteristic of the short-coupled variant of torsades de pointes (scTdP). OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to analyze the underlying cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) variants in patients with scTdP. METHODS Seven patients with scTdP (mean age 34 ± 12 years; 4 men and 3 women) were enrolled in this study. The RyR2 gene was screened by targeted gene sequencing methods; variant minor allele frequency was confirmed in 3 databases; and the pathogenicity was investigated in silico analysis using multiple tools. The activity of wild-type and mutant RyR2 channels was evaluated by monitoring Ca2+ signals of HEK293 cells with a [3H]ryanodine binding assay. RESULTS The mean coupling interval of PVCs was 282 ± 13 ms. The 12-lead electrocardiogram had no specific findings except PVCs with an extremely short-coupling interval. Genetic analysis revealed 3 novel RyR2 variants and 1 polymorphism, all located in the cytoplasmic region. p.Ser4938Phe was not detected in 3 databases, and in silico analysis indicated its pathogenicity. In functional analysis, p.Ser4938Phe demonstrated loss of function and impaired RyR2 channel Ca2+ release, while 2 other variants, p.Val1024Ile and p.Ala2673Val, had mild gain-of-function effects but were similar to the polymorphism p.Asn1551Ser. CONCLUSION We identified an RyR2 variant associated with reduced Ca2+ release and short-coupled torsades de pointes ventricular arrhythmia. The mechanisms of arrhythmogenesis remain unclear.

Abstract
Type 1 ryanodine receptor (RYR1) is a Ca2+ release channel in the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle and is mutated in some muscle diseases, including malignant hyperthermia (MH) and central core disease (CCD). Over 200 mutations associated with these diseases have been identified, and most mutations accelerate Ca2+ -induced Ca2+ release (CICR), resulting in abnormal Ca2+ homeostasis in skeletal muscle. However, it remains largely unknown how specific mutations cause different phenotypes. In this study, we investigated the CICR activity of 14 mutations at 10 different positions in the central region of RYR1 (10 MH and four MH/CCD mutations) using a heterologous expression system in HEK293 cells. In live-cell Ca2+ imaging, the mutant channels exhibited an enhanced sensitivity to caffeine, a reduced endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ content, and an increased resting cytoplasmic Ca2+ level. The three parameters for CICR (Ca2+ sensitivity for activation, Ca2+ sensitivity for inactivation, and attainable maximum activity, i.e., gain) were obtained by [3 H]ryanodine binding and fitting analysis. The mutant channels showed increased gain and Ca2+ sensitivity for activation in a site-specific manner. Genotype-phenotype correlations were explained well by the near-atomic structure of RYR1. Our data suggest that divergent CICR activity may cause various disease phenotypes by specific mutations.

Abstract
Status epilepticus (SE) is a life-threatening emergency that can cause neurodegeneration with debilitating neurological disorders. However, the mechanism by which convulsive SE results in neurodegeneration is not fully understood. It has been shown that epileptic seizures produce markedly increased levels of nitric oxide (NO) in the brain, and that NO induces Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum via the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1), which occurs through S-nitrosylation of the intracellular Ca2+ release channel. Here, we show that through genetic silencing of NO-induced activation of the RyR1 intracellular Ca2+ release channel, neurons were rescued from seizure-dependent cell death. Furthermore, dantrolene, an inhibitor of RyR1, was protective against neurodegeneration caused by SE. These results demonstrate that NO-induced Ca2+ release via RyR is involved in SE-induced neurodegeneration, and provide a rationale for the use of RyR1 inhibitors for the prevention of brain damage following SE.

Abstract
Optical Ca(2+) indicators are powerful tools for investigating intracellular Ca(2+) signals in living cells. Although a variety of Ca(2+) indicators have been developed, deciphering the physiological functions and spatiotemporal dynamics of Ca(2+) in intracellular organelles remains challenging. Genetically encoded Ca(2+) indicators (GECIs) using fluorescent proteins are promising tools for organellar Ca(2+) imaging, and much effort has been devoted to their development. In this review, we first discuss the key points of organellar Ca(2+) imaging and summarize the requirements for optimal organellar Ca(2+) indicators. Then, we highlight some of the recent advances in the engineering of fluorescent GECIs targeted to specific organelles. Finally, we discuss the limitations of currently available GECIs and the requirements for advancing the research on intraorganellar Ca(2+) signaling.
