2-Adrenergic Receptor Signaling in Ventricular Myocytes: the Role of Gi proteins and Caveolae Microdomains
Departments of Pharmacology (V.O.R., E.P., S.A., S.F.S.) and Medicine (S.F.S.), College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University, New York, New York
Cardiomyocyte
2-adrenergic receptors (
-ARs) provide
a source of inotropic support and influence the evolution of heart failure.
Recent studies identify distinct mechanisms for
2-AR actions
in neonatal and adult rat cardiomyocytes. This study examines whether
ontogenic changes in cardiac
2-AR actions can be attributed
to altered Gi expression or changes in the spatial organization of the
2-AR complex in membrane subdomains (caveolae). We show that
2-ARs increase cAMP, calcium, and contractile amplitude in a
pertussis toxin (PTX)-insensitive manner in neonatal cardiomyocytes. This is
not caused by lack of Gi; G
i expression is higher in neonatal
cardiomyocytes than in those of adult rats.
2-ARs provide
inotropic support without detectably increasing cAMP, in adult cardiomyocytes.
This cannot be attributed to dual coupling of
2-ARs to Gs and
Gi, because
2-ARs do not promote cAMP accumulation in
PTX-pretreated adult cardiomyocytes. Spatial segregation of
2-ARs, G
s/G
i, and adenylyl cyclase to distinct
membrane subdomains also is not a factor, because all of these proteins
copurify in caveolin-3-enriched vesicles isolated from adult cardiomyocytes.
However, these studies demonstrate that enzyme-based protocols routinely used
to isolate ventricular cardiomyocytes lead to proteolysis of
-ARs. The
functional consequences of this limited
-AR proteolysis is uncertain,
because truncated
1-ARs promote cAMP accumulation and
truncated
2-ARs provide inotropic support in adult
cardiomyocytes. Collectively, these studies indicate that components of the
2-AR signaling complex compartmentalize to restricted
membrane subdomains in adult rat cardiomyocytes. Neither compartmentalization
nor changes in Gi expression fully explain the ontogenic changes in
2-AR responsiveness in the rat ventricle.
