  • Calcium Cycling Proteins and Heart Failure: Mechanisms and Therapeutics
    Calcium cycling proteins and heart failure: mechanisms and therapeutics Andrew R. Marks J Clin Invest. 2013;123(1):46-52. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI62834. Review Series Ca2+-dependent signaling is highly regulated in cardiomyocytes and determines the force of cardiac muscle contraction. Ca2+ cycling refers to the release and reuptake of intracellular Ca2+ that drives muscle contraction and relaxation. In failing hearts, Ca2+ cycling is profoundly altered, resulting in impaired contractility and fatal cardiac arrhythmias. The key defects in Ca2+ cycling occur at the level of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), a Ca2+ storage organelle in muscle. Defects in the regulation of Ca2+ cycling proteins including the ryanodine receptor 2, cardiac (RyR2)/Ca2+ release channel macromolecular complexes and the sarcoplasmic/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase 2a (SERCA2a)/phospholamban complex contribute to heart failure. RyR2s are oxidized, nitrosylated, and PKA hyperphosphorylated, resulting in “leaky” channels in failing hearts. These leaky RyR2s contribute to depletion of Ca2+ from the SR, and the leaking Ca2+ depolarizes cardiomyocytes and triggers fatal arrhythmias. SERCA2a is downregulated and phospholamban is hypophosphorylated in failing hearts, resulting in impaired SR Ca2+ reuptake that conspires with leaky RyR2 to deplete SR Ca2+. Two new therapeutic strategies for heart failure (HF) are now being tested in clinical trials: (a) fixing the leak in RyR2 channels with a novel class of Ca2+-release channel stabilizers called Rycals and (b) increasing expression of SERCA2a to improve SR Ca2+ reuptake with viral-mediated gene therapy. There are many potential opportunities for additional mechanism-based therapeutics involving the machinery […] Find the latest version: https://jci.me/62834/pdf Review series Calcium cycling proteins and heart failure: mechanisms and therapeutics Andrew R.

One person dies every 30 s from heart disease. Recognizing the importance of heart failure, clinicians and scientists have sought better therapeutic strategies and even cures for end-stage Citation: Siri-Angkul, N.; Dadfar, B.; heart failure. This exploration has resulted in many failed clinical trials testing novel classes of Jaleel, R.; Naushad, J.; pharmaceutical drugs and even gene therapy. As a result, along the way, there have been paradigm Parambathazhath, J.; Doye, A.A.; Xie, shifts toward and away from differing therapeutic approaches.

Results: Regulatory light chain phosphorylation is not affected by conditions affecting phosphorylation of other sarcomeric proteins, including ␤-adrenergic tone. Conclusion: Significant regulatory light chain phosphorylation in beating hearts is sustained physiologically by low cMLCK and MLCP activities. Significance: Constitutive regulatory light chain phosphorylation stabilizes cardiac performance. In beating hearts, phosphorylation of myosin regulatory light Contractile proteins of the heart are highly organized in chain (RLC) at a single site to 0.45 mol of phosphate/mol by myofibrils containing sarcomeres. Contraction of the cardiac ؉ cardiac myosin light chain kinase (cMLCK) increases Ca2 sen- sarcomere initiated by Ca2ϩ is dependent on the hydrolysis of sitivity of myofilament contraction necessary for normal cardiac ATP by cardiac myosin (1).
