Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is extensively remodelled during the development of professional secretory cells to cope with high protein production. Since ER is the principal Ca2+ store in the cell, we characterised the Ca2+ homeostasis in NALM-6 and RPMI 8226 cells, which are commonly used as human pre-B and antibody secreting plasma cell models, respectively. Expression levels of Sec61 translocons and the corresponding Sec61-mediated Ca2+ leak from ER, Ca2+ storage capacity and store-operated Ca2+ entry were significantly enlarged in the secretory RPMI 8226 cell line. Using an immunoglobulin M heavy chain producing HeLa cell model, we found that the enlarged Ca2+ storage capacity and Ca2+ leak from ER are linked to ER expansion. Our data delineates a developmental remodelling of Ca2+ homeostasis in professional secretory cells in which a high Sec61-mediated Ca2+ leak and, thus, a high Ca2+ turnover in the ER is backed up by enhanced store-operated Ca2+ entry.

Abstract
AIMS In atrial fibrillation (AF), an increased diastolic Ca2+ leak from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) mediated by calcium/calmodulin-dependent-protein-kinaseIIδC (CaMKII) can serve as a substrate for arrhythmia induction and persistence. Dantrolene has been shown to stabilize the cardiac ryanodine-receptor. This study investigated the effects of dantrolene on arrhythmogenesis in human and mouse atria with enhanced CaMKII activity. METHODS AND RESULTS Human atrial cardiomyocytes (CMs) were isolated from patients with AF. To investigate CaMKII-mediated arrhythmogenesis, atrial CMs from mice overexpressing CaMKIIδC (TG) and the respective wildtype (WT) were studied using confocal microscopy (Fluo-4), patch-clamp technique, and in vivo atrial catheter-based burst stimulations. Dantrolene potently reduced Ca2+ spark frequency (CaSpF) and diastolic SR Ca2+ leak in AF CMs. Additional CaMKII inhibition did not further reduce CaSpF or leak compared to dantrolene alone. While the increased SR CaSpF and leak in TG mice were reduced by dantrolene, no effects could be detected in WT. Dantrolene also potently reduced the pathologically enhanced frequency of diastolic SR Ca2+ waves in TG without having effects in WT. As an increased diastolic SR Ca2+ release can induce a depolarizing transient inward current, we could demonstrate that the incidence of afterdepolarizations in TG, but not in WT, mice was significantly diminished in the presence of dantrolene. To translate these findings into an in vivo situation we could show that dantrolene strongly suppressed the inducibility of AF in vivo in TG mice. CONCLUSION Dantrolene reduces CaMKII-mediated atrial arrhythmogenesis and may therefore constitute an interesting antiarrhythmic drug for treating patients with atrial arrhythmias driven by an enhanced CaMKII activity, such as AF.

Abstract
Cardiac disease is associated with deleterious emission of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mito-ROS), as well as enhanced oxidation and activity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release channel, the ryanodine receptor (RyR2). The transfer of Ca2+ from the SR via RyR2 to mitochondria is thought to play a key role in matching increased metabolic demand during stress. In this study, we investigated whether augmented RyR2 activity results in self-imposed exacerbation of SR Ca2+ leak, via altered SR-mitochondrial Ca2+ transfer and elevated mito-ROS emission. Fluorescent indicators and spatially restricted genetic ROS probes revealed that both pharmacologically and genetically enhanced RyR2 activity, in ventricular myocytes from rats and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) mice, respectively, resulted in increased ROS emission under β-adrenergic stimulation. Expression of mitochondrial Ca2+ probe mtRCamp1h revealed diminished net mitochondrial [Ca2+] with enhanced SR Ca2+ leak, accompanied by depolarization of the mitochondrial matrix. While this may serve as a protective mechanism to prevent mitochondrial Ca2+ overload, protection is not complete and enhanced mito-ROS emission resulted in oxidation of RyR2, further amplifying proarrhythmic SR Ca2+ release. Importantly, the effects of augmented RyR2 activity could be attenuated by mitochondrial ROS scavenging, and experiments with dominant-negative paralogs of the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter (MCU) supported the hypothesis that SR-mitochondria Ca2+ transfer is essential for the increase in mito-ROS. We conclude that in a process whereby leak begets leak, augmented RyR2 activity modulates mitochondrial Ca2+ handling, promoting mito-ROS emission and driving further channel activity in a proarrhythmic feedback cycle in the diseased heart.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is the end-stage syndrome for most cardiac diseases, and the 5-year morbidity and mortality of HF remain high. Malignant arrhythmia is the main cause of sudden death in the progression of HF. Recently, bridging integrator 1 (BIN1) was discovered as a regulator of transverse tubule function and calcium signalling in cardiomyocytes. BIN1 downregulation is linked to abnormal cardiac contraction, and it increases the possibility of malignant arrhythmias preceding HF. Because of the detectability of cardiac BIN1 in peripheral blood, BIN1 may serve as a predictor of HF and may be useful in therapy development. However, the mechanism of BIN1 downregulation in HF and how BIN1 regulates normal cardiac function under physiological conditions remain unclear. In this review, recent progress in the biological studies of BIN1-related cardiomyocytes and the effect of cardiac dysfunction and malignant arrhythmia will be discussed.

Abstract
Activation of the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II isoform δA (CaMKIIδA) disturbs intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis in cardiomyocytes during chronic heart failure (CHF). We hypothesized that upregulation of CaMKIIδA in cardiomyocytes might enhance Ca2+ leak from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) via activation of phosphorylated ryanodine receptor type 2 (P-RyR2) and decrease Ca2+ uptake by inhibition of SR calcium ATPase 2a (SERCA2a). In this study, CHF was induced in rats by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. We found that CHF caused an increase in the expression of CaMKIIδA and P-RyR2 in the left ventricle (LV). The role of CaMKIIδA in regulation of P-RyR2 was elucidated in cardiomyocytes isolated from neonatal rats in vitro. Hypoxia induced upregulation of CaMKIIδA and activation of P-RyR2 in the cardiomyocytes, which both were attenuated by knockdown of CaMKIIδA. Furthermore, we showed that knockdown of CaMKIIδA significantly decreased the Ca2+ leak from the SR elicited by hypoxia in the cardiomyocytes. In addition, CHF also induced a downregulation of SERCA2a in the LV of CHF rats. Knockdown of CaMKIIδA normalized hypoxia-induced downregulation of SERCA2a in cardiomyocytes in vitro. The results demonstrate that the inhibition of CaMKIIδA may improve cardiac function by preventing SR Ca2+ leak through downregulation of P-RyR2 and upregulation of SERCA2a expression in cardiomyocytes in CHF.

Abstract
Selenium (Se) deficiency induces Ca2+ leak and calcification in mammal skeletal muscles; however, the exact mechanism is still unclear. In the present study, both Se-deficient chicken muscle models and selenoprotein W (SelW) gene knockdown myoblast and embryo models were used to study the mechanism. The results showed that Se deficiency-induced typical muscular injuries accompanied with Ca2+ leak and oxidative stress (P < 0.05) injured the ultrastructure of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) and mitochondria; decreased the levels of the Ca2+ channels, SERCA, SLC8A, CACNA1S, ORAI1, STIM1, TRPC1, and TRPC3 (P < 0.05); and increased the levels of Ca2+ channel PMCA (P < 0.05). Similarly, SelW knockdown also induced Ca2+ leak from the SR and cytoplasm; increased mitochondrial Ca2+ levels and oxidative stress; injured SR and mitochondrial ultrastructure; decreased levels of SLC8A, CACNA1S, ORA1, TRPC1, and TRPC3; and caused abnormal activities of Ca2+ channels in response to inhibitors in myoblasts and chicken embryos. Thus, both Se deficiency and SelW knockdown induced Ca2+ leak, oxidative stress, and Ca2+ channel reduction. In addition, Ca2+ levels and the expression of the Ca2+ channels, RyR1, SERCA, CACNA1S, TRPC1, and TRPC3 were recovered to normal levels by N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) treatment compared with SelW knockdown cells. Thus, with regard to the decreased Ca2+ channels, SelW knockdown closely correlated Se deficiency with Ca2+ leak in muscles. The redox regulation role of SelW is crucial in Se deficiency-induced Ca2+ leak in muscles.

Abstract
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) and inositol triphosphate receptors (InsP3Rs) are structurally related intracellular calcium release channels that participate in multiple primary or secondary amplified Ca(2+) signals, triggering muscle contraction and oscillatory Ca(2+) waves, or activating transcription factors. In the heart, RyRs play an indisputable role in the process of excitation-contraction coupling as the main pathway for Ca(2+) release from sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), and a less prominent role in the process of excitation-transcription coupling. Conversely, InsP3Rs are believed to contribute in subtle ways, only, to contraction of the heart, and in more important ways to regulation of transcription factors. Because uncontrolled activity of either RyRs or InsP3Rs may elicit life-threatening arrhythmogenic and/or remodeling Ca(2+) signals, regulation of their activity is of paramount importance for normal cardiac function. Due to their structural similarity, many regulatory factors, accessory proteins, and post-translational processes are equivalent for RyRs and InsP3Rs. Here we discuss regulation of RyRs and InsP3Rs by CaMKII phosphorylation, but touch on other kinases whenever appropriate. CaMKII is emerging as a powerful modulator of RyR and InsP3R activity but interestingly, some of the complexities and controversies surrounding phosphorylation of RyRs also apply to InsP3Rs, and a clear-cut effect of CaMKII on either channel eludes investigators for now. Nevertheless, some effects of CaMKII on global cellular activity, such as SR Ca(2+) leak or force-frequency potentiation, appear clear now, and this constrains the limits of the controversies and permits a more tractable approach to elucidate the effects of phosphorylation at the single channel level.

Abstract
RATIONALE Phospholamban (PLN) is an inhibitor of cardiac sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ ATPase. PLN knockout (PLN-KO) enhances sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ load and Ca²⁺ leak. Conversely, PLN-KO accelerates Ca²⁺ sequestration and aborts arrhythmogenic spontaneous Ca²⁺ waves (SCWs). An important question is whether these seemingly paradoxical effects of PLN-KO exacerbate or protect against Ca²⁺-triggered arrhythmias. OBJECTIVE We investigate the impact of PLN-KO on SCWs, triggered activities, and stress-induced ventricular tachyarrhythmias (VTs) in a mouse model of cardiac ryanodine-receptor (RyR2)-linked catecholaminergic polymorphic VT. METHODS AND RESULTS We generated a PLN-deficient, RyR2-mutant mouse model (PLN-/-/RyR2-R4496C+/-) by crossbreeding PLN-KO mice with catecholaminergic polymorphic VT-associated RyR2-R4496C mutant mice. Ca²⁺ imaging and patch-clamp recording revealed cell-wide propagating SCWs and triggered activities in RyR2-R4496C+/- ventricular myocytes during sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ overload. PLN-KO fragmented these cell-wide SCWs into mini-waves and Ca²⁺ sparks and suppressed the triggered activities evoked by sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ overload. Importantly, these effects of PLN-KO were reverted by partially inhibiting sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ ATPase with 2,5-di-tert-butylhydroquinone. However, Bay K, caffeine, or Li⁺ failed to convert mini-waves to cell-wide SCWs in PLN-/-/RyR2-R4496C+/- ventricular myocytes. Furthermore, ECG analysis showed that PLN-KO mice are not susceptible to stress-induced VTs. On the contrary, PLN-KO protected RyR2-R4496C mutant mice from stress-induced VTs. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrate that despite severe sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ leak, PLN-KO suppresses triggered activities and stress-induced VTs in a mouse model of catecholaminergic polymorphic VT. These data suggest that breaking up cell-wide propagating SCWs by enhancing Ca²⁺ sequestration represents an effective approach for suppressing Ca²⁺-triggered arrhythmias.
