However, the transcription factors that regulate VSMC activation are not completely characterized. By a mRNA-differential display approach, we have identified neuron-derived orphan receptor-1 (NOR-1), a transcription factor within the NGFI-B subfamily of nuclear receptors, as a immediate-early gene in VSMCs. Two NOR-1 isoforms (&agr; and &bgr;) were identified and cloned from serum-induced porcine VSMC that shared high homology with the human isoforms. Northern blot analysis revealed a strong and transient (1 to 6 hours) upregulation of NOR-1 in both porcine and human coronary SMCs by growth factors (serum, platelet-derived growth factor-BB, and epidermal growth factor) and &agr;-thrombin but not by cytokines. NOR-1 upregulation is processed through G protein–coupled receptors and tyrosine kinase receptors, and involves Ca2+ mobilization, protein kinase C activation, and the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. This induction was closely dependent of the cAMP response elements present in NOR-1 promoter as transfection assays indicate. Human coronary atherosclerotic lesions overexpress NOR-1, and balloon angioplasty transiently induces NOR-1 in porcine coronary arteries with a pattern similar to that observed in VSMCs in culture. Antisense oligonucleotides against NOR-1 inhibited human coronary SMC proliferation (reduced de novo DNA synthesis, cell cycle progression, and VSMC wound repair) as efficiently as antisense against the protooncogene c-fos. These results show that NOR-1 modulates VSMC proliferation, and suggest that this transcription factor may play a role in both spontaneous and accelerated atherosclerosis.","PeriodicalId":10314,"journal":{"name":"Circulation Research: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-01-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77493961","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ca2+ was monitored using fluo-3 and confocal microscopy. In control myocytes, electrical stimulation caused a spatially uniform increase in intracellular [Ca2+] across the cell width. After detubulation, [Ca2+] rose initially at the cell periphery and then propagated into the center of the cell. Application of caffeine to control myocytes resulted in a rapid and uniform increase of intracellular [Ca2+]; the distribution and amplitude of this increase was the same in detubulated myocytes, although its decline was slower. On application of caffeine to control cells, there was a large, rapid, and transient rise in extracellular [Ca2+] as Ca2+ was extruded from the cell; this rise was significantly smaller in detubulated cells, and the remaining increase was blocked by the sarcolemmal Ca2+ ATPase inhibitor carboxyeosin. The treatment used to produce detubulation had no significant effect on Ca2+ efflux in atrial cells, which lack t-tubules. Detubulation of ventricular myocytes also resulted in loss of Na+-Ca2+ exchange current, although the density of the fast Na+ current was unaltered. It is concluded that Na+-Ca2+ exchange function, and hence Ca2+ efflux by this mechanism, is concentrated in the t-tubules, and that the concentration of Ca2+ flux pathways in the t-tubules is important in producing a uniform increase in intracellular Ca2+ on stimulation.","PeriodicalId":10314,"journal":{"name":"Circulation Research: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83478245","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To investigate spatiotemporal characteristics of ventricular fibrillation (VF), transmembrane potentials (Vm) were recorded from multiple sites of perfused rabbit hearts using a voltage-sensitive dye and a photodiode array or a CCD camera, and the time-frequency characteristics of Vm were analyzed by short-time fast Fourier transform (FFT) or generalized time-frequency representation with a cone-shaped kernel. The analysis was applied to all pixels to track VF frequencies in time and space. VF consisted of blobs, which are groups of contiguous pixels with a common frequency and an ill-defined shape. At any time t, several VF frequency blobs coexisted in the field of view, and the number of coexisting blobs was on average 5.9±2.1 (n=8 hearts) as they appeared and disappeared discontinuously with time and were not fixed in space. The life span of frequency blobs from birth to either annihilation or breakup to another frequency had a half-life of 0.39±0.13 second (n=4 hearts). The Ca2+ channel blocker nifedipine increased the stability of VF frequencies and reduced the number of frequency blobs progressing to a single frequency. In conclusion, VF consists of dynamically changing frequency blobs, which have a short life span and can be modified by pharmacological interventions, suggesting that VF is maintained by dynamically changing multiple wavelets.","PeriodicalId":10314,"journal":{"name":"Circulation Research: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79956006","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, there has been widespread debate over the mechanisms by which an externally applied shock can influence a sufficient volume of heart tissue to terminate cardiac fibrillation. Second, it has been uncertain whether cardiac tissue should be viewed as an electrically orthotropic structure, or whether its electrical properties are, in fact, isotropic in the plane orthogonal to myofiber direction. In the present study, a computer model that incorporates a detailed three-dimensional representation of cardiac muscular architecture is used to investigate these issues. We describe a bidomain model of electrical propagation solved in a discontinuous domain that accurately represents the microstructure of a transmural block of rat left ventricle. From analysis of the model results, we conclude that (1) the laminar organization of myocytes determines unique electrical properties in three microstructurally defined directions at any point in the ventricular wall of the heart, and (2) interlaminar clefts between layers of cardiomyocytes provide a substrate for bulk activation of the ventricles during defibrillation.","PeriodicalId":10314,"journal":{"name":"Circulation Research: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74239781","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Treatment of endothelial cells with 5 mmol/L &bgr;-methyl-cyclodextrin prevents calcium release in response to the nucleotide receptor agonists 2-methylthio-ATP, ATP, ADP, and UTP, but not the kinin receptor agonist bradykinin, suggesting that depletion of membrane cholesterol disrupts signaling at P2Y receptors and that bradykinin receptors are not prelocalized to cholesterol microdomains in these cells. Direct measurement of cholesterol content after &bgr;-methyl-cyclodextrin treatment of aortic rings reveals a concentration-dependent depletion of cholesterol that parallels functional antagonism of P2Y-mediated relaxation. Nucleotide- and bradykinin-mediated relaxation is disrupted by 5 to 15 mmol/L &bgr; -methyl-cyclodextrin treatment or 1 to 10 &mgr;g/mL filipin III in a concentration-dependent fashion. Norepinephrine contracted aorta treated with A23187 relaxes in an endothelium-dependent fashion despite depletion of 84% of membrane-extractable cholesterol. These data indicate that in the basal state, P2Y receptors but not the kinin receptor may be compartmented to cholesterol-dependent signaling domains in guinea pig endothelium and that cholesterol-rich microdomains in these cells can respond to intracellular calcium in an agonist-specific manner. We suggest that the functional organization of cholesterol-rich signaling microdomains allows agonist-specific responses to increases in intracellular calcium and that this property may be a general phenomenon that permits cells to respond disparately to agonists that may signal through common calcium release pathways.","PeriodicalId":10314,"journal":{"name":"Circulation Research: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72672824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We analyzed the NCX function in rat ventricular myocytes 5 to 6 months after experimental myocardial infarction (PMI) produced by left coronary artery ligation and from sham-operated (SO) hearts. Caged Ca2+ was dialyzed into the cytoplasm via a patch-clamp pipette and Ca2+ was released by flash photolysis to activate NCX and measure the associated currents (INaCa), whereas [Ca2+]i changes were simultaneously recorded with a confocal microscope. INaCa density normalized to the [Ca2+]i jumps was 2.6-fold higher in myocytes from PMI rats. The level of total NCX protein expression in PMI myocytes was also increased. Interestingly, although the INaCa density in PMI cells was larger, PMI and SO myocytes presented virtually identical Ca2+ transport via the NCX. This discrepancy was explained by a reduced surface/volume ratio (34.8%) observed in PMI cells.

However, the mechanism by which this occurs remains unclear. Recent studies suggest that heat shock protein 90 (hsp90) alters eNOS function. In the present study, we examined the role of hsp90 in eNOS-dependent cardioprotection in neonatal rabbit hearts. Chronic hypoxia increased recovery of postischemic left ventricular developed pressure (LVDP). Geldanamycin (GA), which inhibits hsp90 and increases oxidative stress, decreased functional recovery in normoxic and hypoxic hearts. To determine if a loss in ·NO, afforded by GA, decreased recovery, GA-treated hearts were perfused with S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) as a source of ·NO. GSNO increased recovery of postischemic LVDP in GA-treated normoxic and hypoxic hearts to baseline levels. Although chronic hypoxia decreased phosphorylated eNOS (S1177) levels by ≈4- to 5-fold and total Akt and phosphorylated Akt by 4- and 5-fold, it also increased hsp90 association with eNOS by more than 3-fold. Using hydroethidine (HEt), a fluorescent probe for superoxide, we found that hypoxic hearts contained less ethidine (Et) staining than normoxic hearts. Normoxic hearts generated 3 times more superoxide by an N&ohgr;-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME)-inhibitable mechanism than hypoxic hearts. Taken together, these data indicate that the association of hsp90 with eNOS is important for increasing ·NO production and limiting eNOS-dependent superoxide anion generation. Such changes in eNOS function appear to play a critical role in protecting the myocardium against ischemic injury.","PeriodicalId":10314,"journal":{"name":"Circulation Research: Journal of the American Heart Association","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-08-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88284063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
