)-CGP 12177 Causes Cardiostimulation and Binds to Cardiac

Some blockers of
1- and
2-adrenoceptors
cause cardiostimulant effects through an atypical
-adrenoceptor
(putative
4-adrenoceptor) that resembles the
3-adrenoceptor. It is likely but not proven that the
putative
4-adrenoceptor is genetically distinct from the
3-adrenoceptor. We therefore investigated whether or not the cardiac atypical
-adrenoceptor could mediate agonist effects in
mice lacking a functional
3-adrenoceptor gene
(
3KO). (
)-CGP 12177, a
1- and
2-adrenoceptor blocker that causes agonist effects through both
3-adrenoceptors and cardiac putative
4-adrenoceptors, caused cardiostimulant effects that
were not different in atria from wild-type (WT) mice and
3KO mice. The effects of (
)-CGP 12177 were resistant
to blockade by (
)-propranolol (200 nM) but were blocked
by (
)-bupranolol (1 µM) with an equilibrium
dissociation constant of 15 nM in WT and 17 nM
in
3KO. (
)-[3H]CGP 12177 labeled a
similar density of the putative
4-adrenoceptor in
ventricular membranes from the hearts of both WT
(Bmax = 52 fmol/mg protein) and
3KO (Bmax = 53 fmol/mg
protein) mice. The affinity of (
)-[3H]CGP 12177 for the
cardiac putative
4-adrenoceptor was not different between WT (Kd = 46 nM) and
3KO
(Kd= 40 nM). These results provide definitive evidence that the cardiac putative
4-adrenoceptor is distinct from the
3-adrenoceptor.
