Full textPart 1. Aim. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a multifactorial disease characterized by an early onset of diastolic dysfunction (DD). Mechanisms that can restore cardiac relaxation (lusitropic effect) improving intracellular Ca2+ dynamics, represent a promising therapeutic approach for cardiovascular diseases associated to DD. Istaroxime is a NaK ATPase (NKA) inhibitor with the property of accelerating Ca2+ re-uptake into sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) through the SR Ca2+ pump (SERCA2a) stimulation. The project aims to characterize Istaroxime effects at a concentration mostly unaffecting NKA to isolate its effects dependent on SERCA2a only in a model of mild diabetes (type 1). Methods and results. Streptozotocin (STZ) treated rats were evaluated at 9 weeks after STZ injection in comparison to control (CTR) ones. SERCA2a-dependent Istaroxime effects were evaluated in cell-free system and in isolated left ventricular (LV) myocytes. STZ animals showed reduced SERCA2a protein level and activity and increased monomeric PLN/SERCA2a ratio. Intracellular Ca2+ handling and electrical activity were evaluated in isolated ventricular myocytes. In STZ myocytes, SERCA downregulation caused 1) increased diastolic Ca2+, 2) reduction in SR Ca2+ content and Ca2+ transient amplitude following control of membrane potential, 3) slower SR reloading process under Na/Ca exchanger (NCX) inhibition, 4) unchanged SR stability and Ca2+ sparks rate. Action potentials (APs) were significantly prolonged, resulting in an increased short-term variability (STV) of APD. Istaroxime (100 nM) significantly stimulated SERCA2a activity and reverted STZ-induced effects by 1) reducing diastolic Ca2+, 2) increasing Ca2+ transient amplitude and SR Ca2+ content, and 3) accelerating SR Ca2+ reuptake in STZ group. Moreover, Istaroxime, by stimulating SERCA2a, partially restored Ca2+ sparks characteristics and significantly accelerated Ca2+ sparks decay. Conclusions. SERCA2a stimulation by Istaroxime restores STZ-induced intracellular Ca2+ handling anomalies. Thus, SERCA2a stimulation can be considered a promising therapeutic approach for DD treatment. Part 2. Aim. Heart automaticity is generated in the sino-atrial node (SAN) by a functional interplay between ion channels of the plasma membrane and intracellular ryanodine receptor (RyR)-dependent Ca2+ release. SAN cells are characterized by the expression of voltage-gated L-type Cav1.3 and T-type Cav3.1 Ca2+ (Cav) channels in addition to L-type Cav1.2 channels, which are ubiquitously expressed in the heart. To investigate the significance of Cav expression for heart automaticity we used mutant mice carrying individual or concomitant genetic ablation of Cav1.3 and Cav3.1. Methods and results. Cav ablation additively reduced heart rate in mice. ECG recordings of intact Cav1.3-/-/Cav3.1-/- hearts showed atrioventricular rhythm dissociation and predominantly junctional, rather than SAN driven rhythmicity. Optical mapping of automaticity showed disruption of primary automaticity in Cav1.3-/-/Cav3.1-/- SAN and a shift of the leading pacemaker sites outside the SAN area. We also investigated the role of hyperpolarization-activated f-(HCN) channels, and TTX-sensitive Na+ (Nav) channels in residual automaticity of mutant mice. Concomitant pharmacologic inhibition of f-HCN and TTX-sensitive Nav channels slowed atrial automaticity in wild-type and Cav3.1-/-, while arrested it in 4/6 of Cav1.3-/-, 3/6 of Cav1.3-/-/Cav3.1-/-. Same results were confirmed in isolated Cav1.3-/-/Cav3.1-/- SAN pacemaker cells. Conclusions. Cav1.3 and Cav3.1 Ca2+ channels deletion disrupts normal heart automaticity by inducing bradycardia and altering cardiac conduction. Moreover, in the concomitant absence of Cav1.3 and Cav3.1 channels, f-HCN channels and TTX-sensitive Nav channels are the predominant mechanisms sustaining pacemaker activity.
