Full textAbstract:
L'ictus è una delle principali cause di mortalità e disabilità acquisita in tutto il mondo. Il primo studio di associazione genome-wide in pazienti con ictus ischemico italiano ha trovato un'associazione significativa con il polimorfismo missenso a singolo nucleotide (SNP) rs4780144 nel gene del recettore della rianodina di tipo 3 (RyR3), che porta a una potenziale perdita di funzione. Molteplici evidenze hanno suggerito che una ridotta funzione di RyR3 potrebbe migliorare l'esito dell'ictus.
Con questo studio abbiamo mirato a indagare il ruolo di RyR3 nell'ictus ischemico a livello funzionale, genomico e cellulare.
Le cellule staminali mesenchimali di derivazione adiposa (Ad-MSC) esprimono RyR3 ma non gli altri recettori della rianodina (RyR1 e RyR2). Abbiamo valutato l'effetto del genotipo rs4780144 sull'omeostasi del calcio intracellulare nelle linee Ad-MSC. I nostri risultati hanno confermato la riduzione della funzione RyR3 (ridotto rilascio di ioni calcio nel citoplasma) nelle cellule con alleli mutati, che era statisticamente significativa nel donatore omozigote.
Una seconda coorte di 319 pazienti italiani con ictus ischemico con buon esito clinico è stata genotipizzata con Illumina Human-24 720. I genotipi dei casi (sia la prima che la seconda coorte) e i controlli sono stati imputati utilizzando il pannello di riferimento TOPMed degli aplotipi umani. Questo secondo GWAS ha replicato l'associazione con rs4780144 e altri SNP nel gene RyR3.
Infine, il danno ischemico indotto dalla deprivazione di ossigeno-glucosio (OGD) è stato valutato in fette di cervello organotipiche da topi wild-type e RyR3-knockout. Il knockout di RyR3 ha mostrato una ridotta suscettibilità al danno ischemico rispetto alle sezioni wild-type come indicato dalla ridotta incorporazione di ioduro di propidio e dal rilascio di LDH a 48 e 72 ore dopo OGD. RyR3- fette knockout hanno mostrato anche un gonfiore ridotto dopo OGD, indicando una riduzione dell'edema citotossico. Tuttavia, ad oggi non sono state trovate differenze significative nell'analisi dell'espressione genica eseguita su geni correlati allo stress ossidativo e neuronale.
I risultati di questo lavoro confermano che RyR3 può svolgere un ruolo nell'ictus ischemico. In particolare, l'inibizione di RyR3 potrebbe modulare positivamente il danno ischemico, determinando una nuova e promettente strategia neuroprotettiva nei pazienti con ictus ischemico acuto. Tuttavia, sono necessari ulteriori studi per chiarire i meccanismi che potrebbero eventualmente essere alla base della neuroprotezione osservata.<br>Stroke is a leading cause of mortality and acquired disability worldwide. The first genome-wide association study in Italian ischemic stroke patients found a significant association with the missense single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs4780144 in the ryanodine receptor type 3 (RyR3) gene, which leads to a potential loss of function. Multiple evidences suggested that a reduced function of RyR3 could improve stroke outcome.
With this study we aimed at investigating the role of RyR3 in ischemic stroke at functional, genomic, and cellular level.
Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs) express RyR3 but not the other ryanodine receptors (RyR1 and RyR2). We assessed the effect of the rs4780144 genotype on intracellular calcium homeostasis in Ad-MSC lines. Our results confirmed the reduction of the RyR3 function (reduced release of calcium ions into the cytoplasm) in cells with the mutated alleles, which was statistically significant in homozygous donor.
A second cohort of 319 Italian ischemic stroke patients with good clinical outcome was genotyped with Illumina Human-24 720. Genotypes of cases (both first and second cohorts) and controls were imputed using the TOPMed reference panel of human haplotypes. This second GWAS replicated the association with rs4780144 and other SNPs in the RyR3 gene.
Finally, ischemic injury induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) was evaluated in organotypic brain slices from wild-type and RyR3-knockout mice. RyR3- knockout showed a decreased susceptibility to ischemic damage compared to wild-type slices as indicated by the reduced propidium iodide incorporation and LDH release at 48 and 72 h after OGD. RyR3- knockout slices showed also a reduced swelling after OGD, indicating reduction of cytotoxic edema. However, to date no significant differences were found in gene expression analysis performed on neuronal and oxidative stress related genes.
The results of this work confirm that RyR3 may play a role in ischemic stroke. In particular, the inhibition of RyR3 could positively modulate ischemic damage, resulting in a new and promising neuroprotective strategy in patients with acute ischemic stroke. However, further studies are needed to clarify the mechanisms that could possibly underlie the observed neuroprotection.

In mouse smooth muscles, we have shown the expression of short dominant negative variant. In fact, in duodenum, the short isoform inhibits the RYR2 subtype responsible for the release of stored calcium in reticulum. The complete isoform of RYR3 cannot interact with the short isoform but encodes spontaneous calcium oscillations only when the reticulum is calcium overloaded. This alternative splicing is also modulated in myometrium during pregnancy. Near the term, the expression of complete RYR3 isoform is dominant whch allows cyclic ADP-ribose-dependent transduction pathways to release stored calcium that participates to uterine contraction

Le recepteur de la ryanodine de type 3 (ryr3), exprime dans les neurones, est l'isoforme la moins caracterisee de cette famille de recepteurs-canaux ca 2 + du reticulum endoplasmique.

Cet anticorps s'est avere bloquant du mecanisme de calcium-induced calcium release (cicr) dans lequel ryr3 est implique. Dans les neurones ca1, l'injection de l'anticorps anti-ryr3 reduit le courant k+ active par le ca2+ (courant isahp, pour slow after hyperpolarization, sensible a la ryanodine). Ce resultat montre que l'activation du courant isahp est declenchee en partie par le ca2+ libere du reticulum endoplasmique par ryr3. Ce ryr3 joue donc un role essentiel dans la mise en jeu de la phase de post-hyperpolarisation prolongee de la membrane neuronale, phenomene a l'origine du mecanisme d'adaptation de la frequence de decharge des potentiels d'action. L'etude du courant isahp souligne egalement le role des proteines associees a ryr3, cibles de la rapamycine et du cadp-ribose, comme elements determinants de l'activation de ce ryr. Chez l'aplysie un recepteur de type ryr3 est localise principalement dans les axones des neurones du ganglion buccal. L'injection de l'anticorps anti-ryr3, dans le neurone presynaptique d'un couple synaptique cholinergique parfaitement identifie, induit une diminution de la quantite d'acetylcholine liberee par un potentiel d'action presynaptique comparable a celle de la ryanodine. Ce resultat met en evidence le role d'un recepteur de type ryr3 dans la modulation de la transmission synaptique. La sequence peptidique utilisee comme antigene est situee dans une boucle cytoplasmique de ryr3. Ce peptide lie les ions ca2+ et a la capacite d'affecter les phenomenes physiologiques dependants du ca2+ : il reduit l'amplitude des courants isahp dans les neurones pyramidaux ca1 de l'hippocampe de souris et la liberation evoquee d'acetylcholine dans les neurones presynaptiques d'aplysie. Cette sequence peptidique pourrait donc jouer un role essentiel comme tout ou partie du site de liaison du ca2+ sur ryr3.

Full textAbstract:
The muscle-specific membrane protein, Caveolin-3, is a building block of caveolae a type of specialised lipid raft. Caveolin-3 is proposed to play a central role in variety of cellular functions both structural and functional, from cell signalling to cholesterol homeostasis. Caveolin-3 has also been implicated in processes involved in targeting membrane proteins to the plasma membrane, as well as mediating a host of cell signalling processes. Initial attempts were made to express full-length Caveolin-3 in E.coli. However, more success was achieved in expressing and purifying domains of Caveolin-3. To produce purified full-length Caveolin-3 the baculovirus expression system was employed and we report here that the expression of Caveolin-3 in insect (Sf9) cells leads to the formation of caveolae comparable in size to those observed in native vesicles. We subsequently purified the recombinant Caveolin-3 and determined, using multi-angle laser light scattering, that the isolated protein forms an oligomer with a molecular mass of ~200-220kDa. Using negative-stain transmission electron microscopy in conjunction with single particle analysis we have determined the first three-dimensional structure for Caveolin-3 with data converging to suggest that it forms a nonamer. The 9-fold symmetric three-dimensional Caveolin-3 volume is toroidal, ~16.5nm in diameter and 5.5nm thick, and is characterised by an outer rim of protein connected to a central 'cone-shaped' domain. Labelling studies revealed that the C-terminal domain of each of the contributing Caveolin-3 monomers associate to form the central cone density. There is also evidence to suggest that Caveolin-3 is associated with a range of proteins involved in excitation-contraction coupling. Having identified multiple potential caveolin-binding motifs within the Ryanodine Receptor, one of the key protein components of excitation-contraction coupling, we have purified the skeletal isoform of the Ryanodine Receptor (Ryanodine Receptor-1) from sheep calf muscle and using several biophysical techniques probed whether there is an interaction between Caveolin-3 and Ryanodine Receptor-1. Co-immunoprecipitation experiments indicated that the two proteins do indeed interact, but functional studies for analysis of binding characteristics were inconclusive. In conclusion, this thesis describes both the successfully purification and structural determination of Caveolin-3, generating the first 3D data for any of the caveolin proteins, as well as work aimed at understanding its functional relationship with Ryanodine Receptor-1.

Full textAbstract:
The cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) plays a key role in excitation-contraction coupling (ECC). Mutations in RyR2 are known to be linked to the arrhythmogenic disorder, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), a deadly disease which is characterized by a leak of calcium from sarcoplasmic reticulum and a decrease in calmodulin (CaM) binding. A novel drug, 84F2, shown to inhibit arrhythmias in RyR2-R176Q heterozygous CPVT mouse hearts (2.5 µg/kg), decrease spark frequency in cells derived from CPVT mice (IC50 = 35 nM), and inhibit RyR2 single channel activity at low nanomolar concentrations (IC50 = 8 nM). When CaM is added back to RyR2, 84F2's ability to inhibit channel activity is suppressed approximately 250 fold. A metabolite of 84F2, 78F3, is shown to also be active in the inhibition of RyR2. We propose that 84F2 decreases arrhythmias by binding to the CaM deficient RyR2, but does not affect normal ECC when CaM is present. This work characterizes for the first time a class of drugs whose inhibitory affects are dependent upon the removal of CaM from RyR2.

Le canal calcique de libération du Ca2+, appelé récepteur à la ryanodine (RyR) est localisé dans la membrane du réticulum sarcoplasmique des cardiomyocytes, en incluant ceux du pacemaker, et a un rôle important dans le couplage excitation contraction et la génération du rythme cardiaque. Des mutations dans leur gène sont responsables de la tachycardie catécholergique (CPVT), qui est une maladie létale, manifestée par des syncopes ou mort subite lors de stress émotionnel ou physique. Au repos, ces patients ont un électrocardiogramme normal, mais une tendance plus importante à la bradycardie.Nos collaborateurs ont identifié la mutation RyR2R420Q dans une famille espagnole atteinte de CPVT. Nous avons construit une souris portant cette mutation et étudié l’activité du nœud sinoatrial (NSA, pacemaker principale) afin d’élucider les mécanismes.Nous avons trouvé que les cellules du NSA présentent une activité spontanée plus lente que les souris sauvages (WT). Dans la cellule in situ, on peut étudier l’activité des RyRs par l’analyse des « sparks » Ca2+, qui sont des évenements élémentaires produits par l’activation d’un cluster des RyRs. Nos analyses en microscopie confocale sur des NSA disséquées on montré que la fréquence des sparks Ca2+ était légèrement augmentée. Par contre, la longueur de ces sparks est fortement prolongée dans les cellules KI. Ceci produit une libération plus importante de Ca2+ pendant la diastole dans les cellules KI qui réduit l’automatisme, en réduisant la charge en Ca2+ du réticulum sarcoplasmique et en inactivant le courant calcique type L. Donc les thérapies en étude qi favoriseraient la stabilisation du RyR2 en état fermé pourraient ne pas Être efficaces, et il faudra plutôt essayer des thérapies qui faciliteraient la fermeture du canal, une fois il est ouvert<br>The cardiac type-2 ryanodine receptor (RyR2) encodes a Ca2+ release channel on sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membrane in cardiomyocytes, including sinoatrial node (SAN) myocytes, and releases Ca2+ required for contraction and SAN spontaneous rhythm. Its genetic defects are related to catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), which is a lethal heritable disease characterized by exercise/stress-induced syncope and/or sudden cardiac death. Interestingly, CPVT patients frequently present SAN dysfunction as bradycardia at rest.In a previous study, a novel CPVT-related RyR2 mutation (RyR2R420Q) in a Spanish family, associated with SAN dysfunction was reported. R420 is located at the N-terminal portion of the channel and seems to be an important site for maintaining a stable A/B/C domain of N-terminus in RyR2. As N-terminal mutation resultant RyR2 behaviour and SAN function are never analyzed before, we created the KI mice model bearing mutation R420Q to understand the underlying mechanism.In this thesis, we found increased Ca2+ release during diastole, indicating a gain-of-function effect of RyR2 N-terminal mutation R420Q. Interestingly, this defect may not be only an enhanced activity, as the Ca2+ sparks frequency was only slightly increased in KI, but also the closing mechanism, producing longer Ca2+ sparks. That is, the number of Ca2+ sparks is increased by the RyR2R420Q mutation, and meanwhile the amount of Ca2+ released in each Ca2+ spark is also dramatically enhanced. This increased Ca2+ release retards SR Ca2+ replenishment, disrupting the Ca2+ clock and the coupled clock, resulting in the slower SAN function. Thus favouring RyR stabilization in the closing state might not be an adequate therapy but accelerating its closure

La tachycardie ventriculaire polymorphe catécholergique (CPVT) est une arythmie génétique létale qui se manifeste par une syncope ou une mort subite chez les enfants et les jeunes adultes dans des conditions de stress sans anomalie structurelle cardiaque évidente. Plusieurs mécanismes ont été proposés pour expliquer les altérations fonctionnelles sous-jacentes de la libération de Ca2+ dues aux mutations de RyR2 ou de ses protéines accessoires. Une nouvelle mutation CPVT située sur la partie N terminale de RyR2 a été identifiée dans une famille espagnole (RyR2R420Q). Ici, nous avons utilisé un modèle de souris KI exprimant le canal RyR2R420Q et des cardiomyocytes différenciés de cellules souches pluripotentes induites (hiPS-CM) générées à partir de deux patients frères (l'un avec mutation, l'autre sans mutation utilisé comme témoin). L’analyse des cardiomyocytes ventriculaires exprimant le RyR2R420Q humain et de souris étudiées par imagerie Ca2+confocale montre une augmentation des libérations de Ca2+spontanée durant la diastole (visualisé par les Sparks Ca2+), une libération fractionnelle plus élevée et une fréquence de vagues Ca2+ proarythmogènes augmentée après stimulation à l'isoprotérénol. L’analyse électrophysiologique, étudiée en enregistrant les potentiels d'action (AP) en utilisant les techniques de micro-électrodes sur les hiPSC-CM et de patch-clamp sur les cellules ventriculaires de souris KI, a montré des post-dépolarisations retardées dépendants du Ca2+ (DAD). L’amplitude des transitoires [Ca2+]i des cellules stimulées à 1 Hz étaient plus faible chez le groupe muté. La charge en Ca2+ du réticulum sarcoplasmique (SR), estimée par application rapide de caféine (10 mM), était aussi plus réduite dans les hiPS-CM exprimant RyR2R420Q, avant et après l'application ISO (1 μM). Cependant, le RyR2R420Q semble plus enclin à libérer du Ca2+, car le transitoire [Ca2+]i normalisé par la quantité de Ca2+ stockée dans le SR, la libération fractionnaire, était plus élevée dans les cellules mutées. Même si la charge Ca2+ du SR était plus petite dans les cellules RyR2R420Q, elles présentaient souvent un comportement pro-arythmogène tel que les vagues Ca2+ pendant les périodes diastoliques. Ce comportement est encore augmentée lors de la stimulation -adrénergique. Des résultats similaires ont été observés chez les souris KI, montrant ce modèle comme un outil précieux pour étudier la maladie CPVT. Nous avons ensuite étudié l'effet antiarythmique potentiel de la venlafaxine et de la prégabaline dans les cardiomyocytes de souris KI et le hiPS-CM, deux médicaments parmi d'autres prescrits à un membre porteur de la famille et qui a montré une réversion des symptômes du CPVT après le traitement. Nous avons constaté que ces deux médicaments atténuaient les événements arythmogènes de libération du Ca2+ induits par l'ISO dans les cardiomyocytes de souris KI. La venlafaxine a montré un effet antiarythmique dans hiPS-CM à la fois en traitements aigus et chroniques.Ainsi 1) le RyR2R420Q montre une augmentation de la libération diastolique du Ca2+ , encore plus augmentée par la stimulation à l ’isoproterénol, induisant des évènements proarythmogènes. 2) les effets sont retrouvés chez des cardiomyocytes ventriculaires des souris KI et chez des cellules hiPSC-CM, montrant que ces dernières sont un outil valable pour étudier les mécanismes pathologiques ; et 3) que la Venlafaxine peut protéger des arythmies chez les patients CPVT, bien que d’avantage d’expériences sont nécessaires afin de conclure quant à son utilité antiarythmique<br>Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a lethal genetic arrhythmia that manifests by syncope or sudden death in children and young adults under stress conditions without obvious cardiac structural abnormality. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the underlying Ca2+ release functional alterations due to mutations of RyR2 or of its accessory proteins. A novel CPVT mutation located on RyR2 N terminal portion has been identified in a Spanish family (RyR2R420Q). Here we used a KI mice model expressing the RyR2R420Q channel, and differentiated cardiomyocytes from induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPS-CM) generated from two brother patients (one with mutation, the other without mutation used as control). Confocal Ca2+ imaging analysis showed that human and mouse RyR2R420Q expressing ventricular cardiomyocytes have higher occurrence of Ca2+ sparks, enhanced fractional release, and significantly more proarrhythmogenic Ca2+ waves after isoproterenol stimulation. The action potential (AP) analysis, recorded using the micro-electrode technique in hiPSC-CMs and patch-clamp in KI mouse ventricular cells, showed Ca2+ -dependent delayed after depolarizations (DADs). The [Ca2+]i transient amplitudes of 1-Hz paced CPVT hiPSC-CMs was similar to control hiPSC-CMs. Whereas sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ load, estimated by rapid caffeine (10 mM) application, was smaller in hiPS-CM from the RyR2R420Q carrier, both before and after 1 microM ISO application. However, the RyR2R420Q seems more prone to release Ca2+, as the [Ca2+]i transient normalized by the amount of Ca2+ stored in the SR, the fractional release, was higher in CPVT hiPSC-CMs. Even if SR Ca2+ load was smaller in CPVT hiPSC-CMs, they often presented proarrythmogenic behavior such as Ca2+ waves during diastolic periods. This behavior was further enhanced during β-adrenergic stimulation. Similar results were observed in KI mice, pointing to this model as a valuable tool to study the CPVT disease. We then studied the potential antiarrhythmic effect of venlafaxine and pregabalin in KI mouse cardiomyocytes and hiPS-CMs, two drugs among other medications that have been prescribed to one family carrier member and devoted of CPVT symptoms. We found that both of those drugs blunted ISO induced arrhythmogenic events in KI mouse cardiomyocytes. Venlafaxine showed antiarrhythmic effect in hiPS-CMs both by acute and chronic treatments.On overall, 1) the RyR2R420Q mutation shows enhanced diastolic Ca2+ release, which is further enhanced by isoproterenol inducing proarrhythmogenic events. 2) The effects were similar in hiPSC-CM and RyR2R420Q KI mice cardiomyocytes, pointing to hiPSC-CM as a valuable model to analyze pathological mechanisms; and 3) Venlafaxine may protect from arrhythmic CPVT patients, although more experiments are needed for in vivo test and to determine the mechanism of this antiarrhythmic effect

In this present study, experiments were carried out a) to characterise the mouse skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (<i>Ryr1)</i> gene cDNA, b) to construct a contiguous map of the murine Ryr1 gene and c) to evaluate the phenotype of the <i>Ryr1</i> knockout transgenic mice and to develop a mouse model, which carries a homologue of the C1843T mutation, associated with MH in pigs and some humans. The murine <i>Ryrl</i> cDNA has been characterised by cDNA cloning and sequence analysis. Murine <i>Ryrl</i> exon-specific RT-PCR primers were designed and used to generate <i>Ryrl</i> cDNA fragments from skeletal muscle total RNA of the mouse strain 129. The cloned RT-PCR products are overlapping and yield about 15 kb cDNA sequence. The cDNA sequence has higher sequence similarity with mammalian sequences than other vertebrate and invertebrate ryanodine receptor gene(s). A contiguous map of the <i>Ryr1</i> gene has been constructed by DNA fingerprint analysis and STS mapping. Large fragment genomic clones containing murine <i>Ryr1</i> sequences have been isolated from two libraries - a Bacterial Artificial Chromosome (BAC) library and P1-derived artificial chromosome (PAC) library. Of the 33 clones isolated, 4 were from the BAC and 29 were from the PAC library. The BACs form tow contiguous fragments separated by a gap. The relationships among the BACs were confirmed by DNA fingerprinting using human <i>RYR1 </i>cDNA fragments. This experiment also confirms the isolated clones are skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor isoform <i>(Ryr1)</i> specific. Sequence information from these BAC genomic clones and cDNA sequence information from this study has been used to develop STS markers. A contiguous map of the clones and flanking sequences has been established by STS analysis in BAC/PAC clones, which together span about 495 kb. The presence of all tested STS markers in two single PACs indicates that the murine <i>Ryr1</i> gene is about 150 kb.

Full textAbstract:
In aged muscle, from humans and mice, the ryanodine receptor (RyR1) is leaky, leading to increased levels of resting Ca2+ in the myoplasm. This is also a feature of skeletal muscle disorders caused by variants in RyR1 such as malignant hyperthermia (MH), central core disease (CCD), exertional heat illness (EHI) and late-onset axial myopathy (LOAM). Elevated Ca2+ is damaging to mitochondria, leading to production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species associated with MH susceptibility to inhalational anaesthetics. Mice with Ryr1 variants show premature muscle ageing and highlight the cycle of inefficient calcium handling and oxidative damage to mitochondria that impairs skeletal muscle energetics. Caenorhabditis elegans models of MH CCD EHI and LOAM variants, both homozygous and heterozygous forms, showed increased sensitivity to halothane. Altered caffeine sensitivity was evident in MH and CCD models, and at very high concentrations in EHI models. Strains with RyR1 variants exhibit age-related accelerated myosin disorganisation. Whole genome Affymetrix arrays revealed genes and pathways correlated with skeletal muscle ageing and MH. Of additional genes of interest investigated UNC13, CASQ1, ORAI1, MCU and MICU1 showed altered expression with age. Array data from blood has been used to identify a signature for MH susceptibility. There is loss of mitochondrial membrane integrity and alteration in mitochondrial number in MH. New apparatus, capable of quantifying heat produced during muscle contraction, has enabled calculation of skeletal muscle efficiency. Preliminary data indicates that there was loss of skeletal muscle efficiency in aged muscle from wild type mice. This work provides new information on the role of RYR1 variants in skeletal muscle ageing and the importance of calcium handling in muscle energetics.

Full textAbstract:
The cardiac ryanodine receptor 2 (RYR2) is a sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca²⁺ release channel central to cardiomyocyte biology. RYR2 Ca²⁺ release has a well-established role in activating cardiomyocyte motor proteins during excitation-contraction coupling and is therefore critical for heart function. RYR2 is also poised to have other important cardiac functions such as setting heart rate, stimulating ATP metabolism, regulating cardiac hypertrophy, and controlling cardiomyocyte survival. In addition, there is evidence that RYR2 dysfunction occurs during heart disease, suggesting that RYR2 may be a driver of cardiac pathology. The research in this thesis seeks to test which aspects of cardiomyocyte biology are regulated by RYR2 signaling and whether RYR2 loss-of-function is pathogenic. Using a heart-specific, inducible gene deletion system in mice we were able to show that loss of Ryr2 caused heart failure and reduced cardiac contraction. In addition, we saw that Ryr2 deletion lead to reduced heart rate, tachycardic arrhythmia, diminished oxidative metabolism, increased cardiac hypertrophy, and increased cell death via a novel mechanism. To test whether the metabolic and heart rate effects persist in the absence of heart failure, we used an inducible, heart-specific 50% Ryr2 deletion model. In this context we did not see heart failure or decreased cardiac function, but still observed a decrease in heart rate and altered oxidative metabolism. Unlike complete Ryr2 knockout, the 50% Ryr2 ablation model did not display a general decrease in oxidative ATP metabolism, but instead a specific decrease in glucose oxidation. This was associated with reduced mitochondrial Ca²⁺ uptake and decreased activation of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex, a Ca²⁺ sensitive gatekeeper of glucose oxidation. Collectively, these results provide compelling evidence that RYR2 is an essential component of excitation-contraction coupling and a critical driver of cardiac pacemaking. These results also demonstrate that RYR2 is critical for mitochondrial Ca²⁺ uptake and stimulating oxidative metabolism and strongly suggest that RYR2 has a specific role in activating glucose oxidation. This research also shows that loss of Ryr2 recapitulates heart failure and suggests RYR2 may be involved in hypertrophy and cell death. This suggests a model where RYR2 simultaneously regulates a several facets of cardiomyocyte biology.<br>Medicine, Faculty of<br>Graduate

Cardiac Ca2+ cycling consist of a series of tightly controlled events, regulated by a number of key proteins that release and sequester Ca2+ both at the cell surface and via intracellular stores. RyR2 is the main SR Ca2+ release channel. Direct regulation of RyR2 by CaMKIId, an important Ca -dependent enzyme, has previously been demonstrated.

Full textAbstract:
Ryanodine receptors (RyR) are intracellular channels that are intricately involved in Ca2+ release. These channels large membrane proteins~2.26MDa in size. In this multi-goal project firstly we successfully studied the gating mechanics of the RyR1 in the presence of Mg2+. We used single particle reconstruction and image processing techniques to obtain the 3D structure of the RyR1 with Mg2+. The 3D structure in the presence of Mg2+ and an ATP analog is the closest representation of human physiological conditions. The open and closed state structures of RyR1 are known. However, the physiologically closed state has not been studied before. Understanding this structure will help in the understanding of protein interactions. Our second goal was the validation of this 3D structure under different levels of noise. Validation under different noise levels analyzed the problem of noise bias is present in the field of cryo-EM and single particle reconstruction in select cases.

Full textAbstract:
Interaction between discrete domains of the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) has emerged as a pivotal mechanism regulating channel function. RyR2 mutations perturb conformational intra-molecular constraints that are linked to dysregulated Ca2+ release. Previous work from this laboratory identified an interacting- or I-domain of human RyR2 that mediates interaction between the large cytoplasmic assembly and the transmembrane (TM) domain of RyR2. Bioinformatic approaches revealed striking structural homology between sub-fragments of the RyR2 I-domain and I-domain-like regions of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3R). Acute expression of I-domain sub-fragments in human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells (where the rank order of expression is IP3R2 > IP3RI) was associated with profound loss of cell viability predominantly via apoptosis. This increase in apoptosis was linked to altered Ca2+ cycling (measured using a novel index of Ca2+ signal variability) and a remarkable loss of carbachol-evoked Ca2+ release. Intriguingly, increased apoptosis and perturbed Ca2+ handling was also observed in neighbouring cells that did not express recombinant I-domain proteins - a phenomenon termed the bystander effect. The bystander effect is likely mediated by transfer of signalling molecules via direct cell-to-cell coupling (gap junctions) and via diffusible mediators (extracellular route). This thesis supports the novel concept that IP3R-mediated Ca2+ handling and cellular phenotype can be exquisitely tuned by recombinant fragments of RyR2.

Full textAbstract:
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) claims more lives than any other disease in the world. Although numerous biological pathways share the blame, ventricular tachyarrhythmia (VT) is estimated to account for ~25% of all CVD deaths. A complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying VT is unknown but recent studies have linked VT to improper calcium handling in the heart (canine). The principle calcium regulator in the muscle cell is the calcium ion release channel (aka RyR). Numerous endogenous and exogenous compounds can affect the way the RyR regulates calcium. In particular, abnormal levels of oxidants (reactive oxygen species) can oxidize critical thiol groups on the RyR and modulate its activity. Interestingly, high levels of oxidants are also associated with numerous bodily disease states including cancers, muscle fatigue/failure, and CVD. In this thesis, two important dietary antioxidant compounds, the anthocyanidins pelargonidin and delphinidin, are evaluated for their effects on regulating the transport of calcium through the calcium release channel (RyR1) of the sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle. Pelargonidin and delphinidin are structurally similar with delphinidin only differing from pelargonidin by the addition of two hydroxyl groups. Both compounds undergo time dependent structural changes in aqueous solutions at physiological pH and a mixture of more than four structures of each compound can be present in solution simultaneously. Pelargonidin and delphinidin show distinct differences in their calcium flux regulating effect on the RyR1. Delphinidin stimulates calcium flux and RyR1 activity where as pelargonidin can cause both inhibition and stimulation of the RyR1. The strength of stimulation and inhibition of calcium transport through the RyR by delphinidin and pelargonidin may be attributed to the structural and chemical changes in those compounds that occur in solutions near physiological pH and the subsequent chemical characteristics of the diverse set of structures that are simultaneously present in solution.

Trichloroethylene (TCE) is among the most common water contaminant in the United States and around the world. It is estimated that between 9% and 34% of all drinking water sources contain some TCE. The EPA set a drinking water standard for TCE at 5 parts per billion (ppb) in 1989, however since this date, many studies have shown TCE is dangerous to the health of adults and unborn children, even at low-level exposures. These studies reveal exposure to TCE can cause multi-organ damage, especially for the kidney, liver, reproductive and development systems. We investigated how TCE can effect embryonic heart development by identifing possible target mechanisms changing after exposure. Acute and chronic exposure to rat cardiomyocytes produced altered calcium flow and significant changes with TCE doses as low as 10ppb. Embryonic carcinoma cells, rat cardiomyocytes and fetal heart tissue all showed global changes in gene expression after low-dose TCE exposure, including critical ion channels that drive calcium flux. High levels of folic acid supplementation in combination with 10ppb TCE exposure in maternal diets caused significant genetic modifications in mRNA expression levels of Day 10 embryonic mouse cardiac tissue. We also found both high and low folate maternal diets leads to similar phenotypic outcomes in embryo development.

La sarcopénie ou perte involontaire progressive de la masse musculaire chez le sujet âgé s’accompagne de l’altération de nombreux phénomènes physiologiques comparables à ceux observés chez les myopathes. Le processus de régénération musculaire est très ralenti, les activités protéolytiques intracellulaires sont modifiées et de nombreuses fonctions cellulaires sont perturbées en raison d’un stress oxydatif incontrôlé. L’intervention des calpaïnes, protéases neutres calcium-dépendantes, dans les processus associés au développement, à la régénération et à l’intégrité du tissu musculaire est incontestable. Les calpaïnes apparaissent, en effet, comme des acteurs clefs des voies de transductions liées à la myogenèse, la prolifération et la survie cellulaire. Toutefois aucune étude permettant d’établir la relation vieillissement du tissu musculaire- activité calpaïne n’a été entreprise à ce jour. Le projet a donc pour but principal d’inventorier les signaux pro-sarcopéniques interagissant avec les calpaïnes et d’établir leurs relations avec la fonctionnalité des cellules satellites, le stress oxydant et l’apoptose. Nous avons mis en évidence une augmentation de l’expression/activité des calpaïnes durant le vieillissement musculaire chez le rat et identifié des partenaires des calpaïnes impliqués dans des fonctions physiologiques altérées durant la sarcopénie: homéostasie calcique, activité contractile, production d’ATP, régénération musculaire. Nous avons également montré que l’induction d’un stress oxydant entraîne l’activation des calpaïnes au cours de la prolifération des cellules satellites de façon corrélée à une augmentation de l’apoptose. D’une manière intéressante, un traitement préventif par un antioxydant naturel d’écorce de pin (Oligopin®) est capable de prévenir à la fois l’apoptose et l’activation des calpaïnes. L’ensemble de ces résultats suggère que le stress oxydant associé au vieillissement induirait des mécanismes calpaïno-dépendants responsables de l’altération de processus essentiels à la fonction musculaire<br>Aging is associated with a progressive and involuntary loss of muscle mass also known as sarcopenia. This condition represents a major public health concern. Although sarcopenia is well documented, the molecular mechanisms of this condition still remain unclear. The calcium-dependent proteolytic system is composed of calcium dependent cystein-proteases named calpains. Calpains are involved in a large number of physiological processes such as muscle growth and differentiation, and pathological conditions such as muscular dystrophies. The aim of this study was to determine the involvement of the proteolytic system in the phenotype associated with sarcopenia by identify the key proteins (substrates or regulators) interacting with calpains during muscle aging and identify pro-sarcopenic signals after oxidative stress induction in satellite cells. Muscle aging was correlated with the up-regulation of calpain activity. Ryanodine receptor 1, ATP synthase subunit alpha and alpha actinin 3 appear as key partners of calpains during muscle aging. Such interactions suggest an implication of calpains in many processes altered during aging including cytoskeletal disorganisation, regulation of calcium homeostasis and mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, oxidative stress induction led to an increase in the activity of calpains correlated to an increase in apoptosis of proliferating satellite cells. In a very interesting way, a preventive treatment with a commercial antioxidant (Oligopin®) prevented these effects. All these data suggest that oxidative stress coupled observed during muscle aging could lead to calpaïno-dependent mechanisms responsible for apoptosis and muscle dysorganisation

L’Hyperthermie d’Effort (HE) et l’Hyperthermie Maligne (HM) sont deux pathologies potentiellement fatales déclenchées par un exercice physique intense pour la première, et par l’administration d’anesthésiques halogénés pour la seconde. A ce jour, seule l’HM est bien caractérisée sur le plan génétique car elle est causée en majorité par des mutations dans le gène RYR1, responsables d’une anomalie de l’homéostasie calcique dans le muscle squelettique. L’HM et l’HE partageant de nombreuses similarités cliniques et physiopathologiques, une origine génétique commune a été suggérée. Dans ce contexte, l’objectif de ce travail était d’étudier les causes génétiques de l’HE. Tout d’abord, ce travail a consisté à rechercher l’implication des gènes classiquement associés à l’HM, en particulier RYR1, chez des patients adressés au laboratoire de diagnostic pour suspicion d’HE. Nous avons ainsi montré que le taux de variations dans le gène RYR1 est de 66% chez les patients dont la susceptibilité à l’HM est avérée, mais que ce taux est de 14% chez les patients HE, chez qui nous n’avons d’ailleurs pas identifié de mutation formellement pathogène. Cette faible prévalence des mutations du gène RYR1 dans l’HE a ensuite été confirmée par l’étude d’une seconde cohorte bien caractérisée de militaires atteints d’HE. Cette prévalence étant nettement plus faible que celle observée dans l’HM, une analyse d’exomes a permis d’identifier d’autres gènes candidats dans l’HE comme le gène TRPV1 (prévalence de 3,3%), dont l’effet fonctionnel des mutations identifiées a été validé in vitro. Un troisième gène a également été identifié, avec une prévalence de 10%. Ces résultats permettent de mieux caractériser l’HE sur le plan génétique, afin d’identifier les sujets à risque et prévenir les récidives<br>Exertional Heat Stroke (EHS) and Malignant Hyperthermia (MH) are life-threatening diseases triggered by strenuous activity for the former, and halogenated anesthetics for the latter. Only MH is genetically well-characterized today: it is mainly caused by mutations in the RyR1 channel, triggering an anomaly in calcium homeostasis in the skeletal muscle. As MH and EHS share many common clinical and pathophysiological features, they could also share common genetic causes. In this context, the purpose of this work was to study the genetic causes of EHS. First, we searched for mutations in genes classically associated with MH, especially the RYR1 gene, among patients tested in the laboratory for EHS suspicion. We demonstrated that variations in the RYR1 gene are identified in 66% of recognized MH cases, while they concern only 14% of EHS patients. Moreover, no pathogenic mutation has been identified in EHS patients. This low prevalence of RYR1 variations was next confirmed by studying a second cohort of soldiers suffering from EHS. This prevalence, relatively low when compared to MH cases, suggested the involvement of other gene. The whole exome sequencing confirmed the involvement of the TRPV1 gene in 3.3% of cases. The in vitro analysis of TRPV1 variations demonstrated that they affect the protein function. A third gene was identified, with a prevalence of 10%. These results should help to better characterize EHS at a genetic level and to identify patients at-risk for EHS in order to prevent recurrences

This data provides compelling evidence that mutation-linked RyR2 channel dysfunction is modulated by common sequence polymorphisms and predicts that a more severe clinical phenotype results from the in cis inheritance of G1885E / L433P. Our studies also show that co-expression of L433P and G1885E subunits partially restores the functionality of the resultant heterotetrameric channels. The potential therapeutic benefits of positively modulating RyR2 mutant channel dysfunction via such a trans-complementation approach remain to be explored.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Billions of reared fish are released to the wild to compensate e.g. for the loss of natural populations. However, the efficiency of the releases is low. It has been proposed that one of the factors affecting the low survival rate of reared fish is their low swimming capacity. The molecular, metabolic and structural characters of muscle fiber define the swimming capacity of fish. Swimming capacity is related to the ecological competence of the fish, including the ability to complete long migrations and catch pray. One of the aims of the current study is to compare the properties of muscles of reared and wild salmon. The second aim of the study is to alter the muscular parameters of reared fish closer to those of wild fish by means of training. The muscular differences between wild, reared and trained fish are analyzed with immunological, histochemical and electron microscopic methods. The main focus is on the dihydropyridine and ryanodine receptors. These receptors are involved for example in the initiation, force and velocity of muscle contraction. According to the results, the level of receptors is higher in the muscles of wild as compared to reared fish. The aerobic ATP production capacity is also higher in the wild fish. However, with training both the level of receptors and oxidative capacity of reared fish increase. Moreover, the swimming capacity is enhanced in trained fish, and there is a connection between the level of receptors and swimming capacity of fish. Training also affects the migration pattern of fish which starts to resemble more that of wild fish. In conclusion, the results of the current study show that the performance of fish as a whole depends on functional parameters at cellular level. For the first time, it is shown that the level of receptors involved in muscular contraction is low in muscles of reared fish. However, the muscular properties are not definite. It is now shown that with training, both the muscular and migration parameters of reared fish approach those of wild fish. This will most probably increase the survival probability of trained, reared fish in the future<br>Tiivistelmä Kalojen kasvatus ja istutus takaisin luontoon on yksi tärkeimmistä keinoista säädellä ja palauttaa kalakantoja vesistöihin. Maailmanlaajuisesti puhutaan miljardien kalojen istutusmääristä vuosittain. On kuitenkin hyvin tunnettu tosiasia, että kasvatetut kalat eivät selviä luonnossa yhtä hyvin kuin villit lajikumppaninsa. On arvioitu, että vain alle 5 % istutetuista kaloista selviää lisääntymisikään asti hengissä. Eräs tekijä, joka voi vaikuttaa kalojen selviytymiseen, on kalojen lihaskunto. Kasvatettujen kalojen uintikyvyn on todettu olevan heikko villeihin lajikumppaneihin verrattuna. Luonnossa kaloilta kuitenkin vaaditaan suurta uintikykyä esim. saalistukseen, pedoilta pakenemiseen ja vaellukseen. Eräs tämän työn päätavoitteista on määrittää, miten kasvatettujen ja villien kalojen lihasten molekulaariset, aineenvaihdunnalliset ja rakenteelliset ominaisuudet poikkeavat toisistaan, jotta voidaan arvioida mitkä solutason tekijät vaikuttavat kalojen uintikykyyn ja sitä kautta selviytymiseen. Toisaalta kasvatettujen kalojen lihasten toiminnallisten tekijöiden tasoja pyritään nostamaan harjoittelun avulla lähemmäksi villien vastaavaa ja täten vaikuttamaan kasvatettujen kalojen uintikykyyn ja sitä kautta lopulta selviytymiseen. Työssä lihasten ominaisuuksia analysoidaan immunologisin, histokemiallisin ja elektronimikroskooppisin menetelmin. Tutkimuksissa keskitytään erityisesti dihydropyridiini- ja ryanodiinireseptorien suhteellisiin määriin. Nämä reseptorit osallistuvat lihasten supistumisen aikaansaatiin ja niiden määrä korreloi positiivisesti lihasten voiman ja supistumisnopeuden kanssa. Tulosten mukaan villien kalojen lihaksissa on huomattavasti enemmän reseptoreita verrattuna kasvatettujen kalojen lihaksiin. Myös aerobinen ATP:n tuottokapasiteetti on villeillä kaloilla huomattavasti tehokkaampaa. Harjoittelun jälkeen kasvatettujen kalojen lihasten reseptorimäärät ja aerobinen kapasiteetti kuitenkin kasvavat lähemmäksi villien vastaavaa. Lisäksi lihasten reseptorimäärä ja uintikapasiteetti näyttävät korreloivan keskenään. Harjoittelun seurauksena kasvatettujen kalojen vaellusnopeus, eräs kalojen selviytymiseen vaikuttavista tekijöistä, muistuttaa myös enemmän villien vastaavaa. Yhteenvetona voidaan sanoa, että kalojen koko suorituskyky riippuu lihasten solutason mekanismien tehokkuudesta. Tässä työssä todettiin ensimmäistä kertaa, että kasvatettujen kalojen lihaksissa niiden reseptoreiden määrät, jotka liittyvät itse lihassupistuksen tehokkuuteen, ovat huomattavasti alemmat kuin villeillä. Lihasten toiminnalliset ominaisuudet eivät kuitenkaan ole muuttumattomia vakioita. Tulosten perusteella harjoitettujen kalojen sekä lihas- että vaellusominaisuudet lähestyvät villien vastaavaa. Tämä harjoittelun jälkeinen muutos lisää todennäköisesti kasvatettujen kalojen selviytymismahdollisuuksia

Full textAbstract:
La contraction du muscle squelettique est initiée par une libération de Ca2+ du réticulum sarcoplasmique (RS) en réponse à une dépolarisation du sarcolemme. Celle-ci induit un changement de conformation du récepteur des dihydropyridines (DHPR) localisé dans les tubules T entraînant l'ouverture du récepteur de la ryanodine de type 1 (RyR1), canal calcique du RS, et la libération du Ca2+ accumulé dans le RS. Au repos, RyR1 serait maintenu fermé par une action répressive du DHPR. Néanmoins, un efflux de Ca2+ continu se développe à travers la membrane du RS, constamment compensé par l'activité des pompes Ca2+-ATPases. Des études suggèrent que cet efflux pourrait être impliqué dans la perturbation de l'homéostasie calcique dans une des pathologies musculaires des plus fréquentes et sévères, la myopathie de Duchenne. Le travail présenté vise à caractériser l'efflux de Ca2+ du RS dans les fibres musculaires squelettiques de souris normales et mdx, modèle murin de la myopathie de Duchenne, en couplant la technique de potentiel imposé et la mesure fluorimétrique du Ca2+ intracellulaire. La mise au point d'une mesure directe des variations de Ca2+ du RS à l'aide du Fluo-5N a permis de révéler dans les fibres mdx une fuite calcique du RS exacerbée. Cette approche a permis de démontrer que l'efflux calcique du RS dans la fibre musculaire squelettique au repos n'est pas un phénomène incontrôlé à travers RyR1 mais un efflux étroitement contrôlé par le DHPR. Enfin, on s'est intéressée à l'efflux de Ca2+ du RS lors d'une stimulation musculaire prolongée. Nos résultats montrent que le déclin du signal calcique cytosolique dans ces conditions résulterait de la déplétion calcique du RS<br>Contraction of skeletal muscle is triggered by the release of Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) in response to depolarization of the sarcolemma. Depolarization elicits a conformational change of the dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR) localized in the tubular membrane that controls the opening of the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1), the SR Ca2+ release channel. At rest, RyR1s are kept in a closed state imposed by the repressive action of DHPRs. Yet, a resting Ca2+ efflux occurs across the SR membrane, constantly balanced by the pumping activity of SR Ca2+-ATPases. Several studies suggest that this SR Ca2+ efflux, considered as purely passive, may contribute to the alteration of Ca2+ homeostasis in one of the most common and severe skeletal muscle disease, namely the Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. The present work aims at characterizing the SR Ca2+ efflux in skeletal muscle fiber from normal and mdx mice, the murine model of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, by combining voltage-clamp and intracellular Ca2+ measurements. The development of a methodology allowing direct monitoring of Ca2+ changes in the SR using the Fluo-5N led us to reveal an elevated SR Ca2+ leak in mdx fibers, which may contribute to the alteration of Ca2+ homeostasis. Still using this approach, we demonstrate that the resting SR Ca2+ efflux in normal skeletal muscle fiber is not, an uncontrolled process through RyR1 but is tightly controlled by DHPR. Finally, we investigates the SR Ca2+ efflux during long-lasting stimulation. Our data indicate that the decline of SR Ca2+ release in these conditions results from SR Ca2+depletion and does not involve voltage-dependent inactivation of SR Ca2+ release

Full textAbstract:
Calmodulin (CaM) is a ubiquitous intracellular protein that regulates biological activities of numerous enzymes and ion channels. Upon responding Ca2+ concentration change, Ca2+- dependent CaM activates the hydrolyzation of cGMP by PDE and Ca2+ releasing channel activity of ryanodine receptor. In this dissertation, a series of CaM variants were engineered to enhance Ca2+ binding affinities by increasing the number of negative charged residues in individual EF-hand. The capability of shifting the biphasic Ca2+-activation profile of RyR1 is significantly altered by changing Ca2+ binding affinity of CaM at the C-terminal. This indicates that examining Ca2+-CaM affinity is a valid strategy to tune the activation profile of CaM-regulated ion channels. To further understand interactions between CaM and RyR1, NMR was used to determine their binding mode. To dissect roles of structural components of CaM in metal binding and regulation of biological functions of target proteins, we created half-CaMs and Del-CaM. Binding affinities of these variants to Ca2+, Tb3+ and Gd3+ were determined by fluorescence spectroscopy; functional studies were conducted using single channel analysis and PDE function assay.
Another objective of my dissertation is to design a protein based contrast agent for molecular imaging. CaM was selected as the scaffold protein for designing Gd3+ based MRI contrast agent by modifying metal binding sites as well as grafting a biomarker peptide into the linker region to specifically target cancers with efficient and optimized modifications. The physical kinetic properties and animal imaging effects of these designed contrast agents were investigated by various methods.

Elle peut pourtant être à l’origine d’une dysfonction diaphragmatique induite par la ventilation (DDIV), augmentant la dépendance du patient à son ventilateur et la durée de son séjour en réanimation. La mise au repos brutale du diaphragme induite par la ventilation peut engendrer un stress énergétique ainsi qu’un stress mécanique participant à l’initiation d’un stress oxydant à la base d’une DDIV. Ainsi, l’objectif de cette thèse est d’évaluer les mécanismes physiopathologiques impliqués précocement dans la genèse de ce stress oxydant et d’en faire le lien mécanistique avec la dysfonction contractile du diaphragme ventilé sur un modèle murin. La compréhension de ces mécanismes nous permettra de proposer des nouvelles pistes thérapeutiques afin de limiter l’impact négatif de cette pathologie sur le devenir des patients pris en charge en réanimation par la ventilation mécanique. Dans notre première étude, nous avons montré pour la première fois, dans le diaphragme de souris ventilées mécaniquement, la présence dès 6 heures de ventilation d’un stress oxydant mitochondrial responsable d’un remodelage biochimique précoce du canal de libération du calcium du réticulum sarcoplasmique RyR1, aboutissant à des troubles de l’homéostasie calcique à la base d’altération du couplage excitation-contraction (CEC), impliqués dans la DDIV. Nous avons également montré qu’avec une période plus longue de VM, cette altération de l'homéostasie calcique contribue à une activation secondaire du système de protéase calcium-dépendant liée au désassemblage des complexes d'actomyosine et à l'atrophie participant à la DDIV. Enfin nous avons montré qu’en ciblant pharmacologiquement le RyR1 afin de réduire les fuites calciques nous pouvions prévenir la DDIV. La mise au repos du diaphragme engendre précocement un phénomène de fission mitochondriale qui a été lié à un stress métabolique. Dans notre deuxième étude, nous montrons que cette fission mitochondriale précoce est responsable d’un stress oxydant mitochondrial et que son inhibition pharmacologique au cours de la VM prévient la production de ROS d’origine mitochondriale ainsi que le remodelage du canal calcique RyR1 avec une bonne efficacité thérapeutique sur la prévention de la DDIV. La ventilation mécanique, par la genèse d’asynchronie entre le patient et son ventilateur peut induire un stress mécanique dont l’implication dans le DDIV est mal connue. Sur un modèle murin dystrophique (souris mdx), dont le diaphragme est plus sensible au stress mécanique du fait d’une déficience en Dystrophine, nous avons modélisé ce stress au cours de la ventilation mécanique par l’application in vitro, après 6 heures de ventilation, de contractions excentriques. Ainsi, dans notre troisième étude, nous avons monté que 6 heures de VM chez la souris mdx augmentent la susceptibilité du diaphragme aux contractions excentriques impliquant un remodelage biochimique des canaux RyR1 et une présence de fuite de Ca2+ intracellulaire. Nous démontrons sur ce modèle murin dystrophique, qu’un stress mécanique appliqué in vitro après 6 heures de VM, pouvait activer les NOX2, à la base d’un stress oxydant venant aggraver le remodelage du diaphragme RyR1 déjà altéré par la VM. Nous avons également montré que l’inhibition pharmacologique de NOX2 gommait les effets délétères de ce stress mécanique imposé in vitro. Enfin, nous montrons également dans ce dernier travail, qu’un entraînement respiratoire préventif des muscles respiratoires chez la souris mdx atténue la DDIV ainsi que la susceptibilité à la contraction excentrique induite par VM. Ce travail préliminaire devra être continué afin d’évaluer les mécanismes de cette amélioration induite par cet entrainement<br>Mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit (MV) is a rescue measure for patients who have a temporary disability to provide adequate tissue oxygenation through their ventilatory function. It may, however, be the cause of a ventilator-induced diaphragmatic dysfunction (VIDD), increasing the patient's dependence on his ventilator and his length of stay in intensive care unit. Sudden resting of the diaphragm induced by ventilation can cause energy stress as well as mechanical stress participating in the initiation of oxidative stress at the base of an VIDD. Thus, the aim of this thesis is to evaluate the physiopathological mechanisms involved in the genesis of this oxidative stress and to make the mechanistic link with the contractile dysfunction of the diaphragm ventilated on a murine model. The understanding of these mechanisms will allow us to propose new therapeutic approaches to limit the negative impact of this pathology on the future of patients treated in intensive care by mechanical ventilation.In our first study, we showed for the first time, in the diaphragm of mechanically ventilated mice, the presence of a mitochondrial oxidative stress at 6 hours of ventilation, responsible for an early biochemical remodeling of the calcium release channel of the sarcoplasmic reticulum RyR1, leading to disorders of calcium homeostasis at the base of alteration of excitation-contraction coupling, involved in the VIDD. We have also shown that with a longer period of MV, this alteration of calcium homeostasis contributes to a secondary activation of the calcium-dependent protease system linked to the disassembly of actomyosin complexes and to atrophy participating in the VIDD. Finally, we have shown that by pharmacologically targeting RyR1, in order to reduce calcium leak, we could prevent VIDD.Resting the diaphragm early results in a mitochondrial fission phenomenon that has been linked to metabolic stress. In our second study, we show that this early mitochondrial fission is responsible for mitochondrial oxidative stress and that its pharmacological inhibition during MV prevents the production of ROS of mitochondrial origin as well as the remodeling of the RyR1 calcium channel with good therapeutic efficacy on the prevention of VIDD.Mechanical ventilation, by the genesis of assynchrony between the patient and his ventilator can induce a mechanical stress whose involvement in the VIDD is poorly known. In a dystrophic murine model (mdx mice), whose diaphragm is more sensitive to mechanical stress due to a deficiency in dystrophin, we modeled this stress during mechanical ventilation by in vitro application, after 6 hours of ventilation, eccentric contractions. Thus, in our third study, we found that 6 hours of MV in mdx mice increase the susceptibility of the diaphragm to eccentric contractions involving biochemical remodeling of RyR1 channels and the presence of intracellular Ca2 + leakage. We demonstrate on this dystrophic murine model, that a mechanical stress applied in vitro after 6 hours of MV, could activate the NOX2, at the base of an oxidative stress coming to aggravate the remodeling of the diaphragm RyR1 already altered by the MV. We have also shown the pharmacological inhibition of NOX2 to erase the deleterious effects of this mechanical stress imposed in vitro.Finally, we also show in this last work, that a respiratory breathing preventive training in the mdx mice attenuates the VIDD as well as the susceptibility to the eccentric contraction induced by MV. This preliminary work should be continued in order to evaluate the mechanisms of this improvement induced by this training.Thus during this thesis we were able to identify the mechanisms involved in

Carnes PSE (pálida, flácida e exsudativa) ocorrem por fatores múltiplos, e o estresse e causas genéticas tem papeis cruciais. Em suínos, uma mutação no gene RYR1 (receptor de rianodina tipo 1) leva à PSS (Síndrome do Estresse Suíno) e às carnes PSE. A RyR1 é uma proteína formadora do canal de liberação de Ca2+ no retículo sarcoplasmático de células musculares. Em suínos com a mutação neste gene o estresse desencadeia um acúmulo intracelular de Ca2+, e consequentemente à uma contração muscular permanente, fazendo com que a célula dispenda mais glicogênio tentando relaxar o músculo, produzindo assim mais ácido lático, provocando uma rápida queda do pH enquanto a carcaça ainda está quente, o que leva às carnes PSE. Em frangos, a região N-terminal do RYR a região hotspot para mutações que levam à carnes PSE em suínos ainda não foi sequenciada. O objetivo deste trabalho foi selecionar animais pelo teste do halotano, além de submeter aves ao estresse térmico (ET) e exposição ao halotano pré abate para avaliar alterações nos transcritos do RYR e correlacioná-los com a ocorrência de carnes PSE. Para isso foram realizados quatro experimentos (A, B, C e D) e após o abate, foi coletado um fragmento do músculo Pectoralis major de onde se extraiu RNA total, o qual foi utilizado para obtenção de cDNA; amplificou-se a região a ser estudada, e estes fragmentos foram clonados e sequenciados. Para classificação de carnes PSE utilizou-se o valor de L* em 24h. Em 75 amostras analisadas, foram identificadas 62 variações ao longo das sequências obtidas. A sequência mais conservada apresentou 97% de similaridade com RYR de perus. No experimento A, das 10 amostras que apresentaram proteínas alteradas, sete originaram carnes PSE, e apenas quatro eram de amostras HAL+. Mas amostras HAL- que também tinham alterações nos transcritos também originaram carnes PSE. No experimento B 88,2% das amostras, desenvolveram carnes normais (provavelmente devido ao tempo de jejum pré-abate superior a 24h) e nenhuma das alterações dos transcritos encontradas ocorreram em amostras que produziram carnes PSE. O halotano não foi um bom identificador de amostras com alterações. No Experimento C, quando as aves foram submetidas ao halotano no pré abate e também ao ET, proteínas truncadas (TR) foram prevalentes nas aves expostas ao halotano, mas apenas as que também foram expostas ao ET, originaram carnes PSE. No Experimento D, não houve jejum pré abate nem chiller e 94,5% das amostras foram PSE, enquanto que o teste do halotano, em conjunto com o ET detectou amostras que teriam proteínas TR. Conclui-se então que o teste do halotano não foi eficaz para triar amostras que teriam alterações no mRNA nesta região do RYR. O ET em conjunto com a exposição ao halotano parecem denunciar o aparecimento de códons sem sentido do RYR (proteínas TR) e de carnes PSE. Não houve uma mutação em comum entre os grupos testados que pudesse ser correlacionada com carnes PSE e a resposta ao halotano. O ET pode ter modulado a expressão gênica, o que explicaria o grande número de transcritos alterados encontrados, principalmente quando esta variável foi aplicada. Esses resultados indicam diferenças nos mecanismos de formação de carnes PSE e resposta ao halotano entre aves e mamíferos.<br>Broiler PSE meat is the consequence of multiple factors being the physiological stress the cause most evaluated and recently genetic origin has gained its scientific attention. In pigs, a mutation in the RYR1 gene, receptor for rianodine type 1, leads to the PSS (Pork Stress Syndrome,) and subsequently to PSE (Pale, Soft, Exudative) meat. RyR1 is a protein forming the Ca2+ release channel within muscle cells sarcoplasmic reticulum. In pigs with this mutation, the physiological stress triggers an accumulation of intracellular calcium, and consequently to a continuous muscle contraction, thus accelerating the glycolysis producing more lactic acid subsequently leading to the PSE meat formation. The objective of this work was to sequence broiler chicken N-terminal region of RYR since it is the region most prone to mutations that conducted to the PSS and subsequently to PSE meat. In order to select the genetically sensitive animals, four experiments were conducted in birds that had prior selection by the halothane test (HAL+ and HAL-) and treatments of thermal stress (TS) and halothane exposure before slaughtering. A fragment of Pectoralis major m. was collected from samples previously classified as PSE and non PSE meat by measuring their characteristic colors. The extraction of total RNA was performed, which was used to obtain cDNA and the specific region was amplified and thus these fragments were cloned and sequenced. Among 75 samples analyzed, 62 samples were found to have variations within the sequence of 468 obtained base pairs, which presented 97% of similarity with turkey RyR. The following results were obtained from these four experiments: In Experiment A, from the 10 samples that showed alterations in the protein, seven originated PSE meat and just four of them were HAL+. However samples HAL- that had alterations within the transcripts also originated PSE meat. In Experiment B, the halothane test was not a good genetic identifier of samples with transcript alterations. Non-PSE meat was produced by 88,2% of the animals, presumably because of a long fasting pre slaughtering treatment that the birds were submitted and none of the the found altered transcripts were correlated to PSE meat development. In Experiment C, the truncated proteins were prevalent in birds exposed to halothane test, but only those that were associated to TS were capable to originated PSE meat. Finally, in Experiment D, in birds submitted to non pre slaughter fasting and the meat did not go through the chiller, 94.5% of breast samples presented PSE meat and furthermore truncated proteins were detected in chicken HAL+ associated to TS treatment. Lastly, our results pointed out that the halothane test was not fully efficient to detect samples that presented alterations at that strategic regions of RYR gene. However only the association of the thermal stress, and halothane exposure presented evidence for this role suggesting a modulation of gene expression by the environmental factors. Unfortunately, a common gene mutation was not found and the large number of altered transcripts found was possibly the result of environmental factors particularly heat stress which could somehow modulate the RYR gene expression. Also our results indicated that the avian physiological role related to halothane susceptibility and PSE is different in relation to the mammals.

Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a sudden cardiac

CPVT are caused by mutations in the RyR2 gene. This thesis starts with the
identification of a large family in the Canary Islands, with a long history of SCD due to
CPVT. The genetic study revealed the presence of a mutation in the RyR2 gene in
affected patients. The functional and proteomic studies of the channel has shown that
the mutation unmasks its pathogenicity behavior only in conditions that mimic
catecholaminergic stress and these functional consequences could be due to the
introduction of a new phosphorylation site in the mutant channel. The evidence

Full textAbstract:
The sarcoplasmic reticulum is an internal membrane system that controls the Ca²⁺ concentration inside muscle cells, and hence the contractile state of both skeletal and cardiac muscle. A key protein that that regulates the Ca²⁺ concentration in this membrane is known as the calcium release channel (CRC). The effects on Ca²⁺ dependent activation is of major importance in the study of CRC since other channel modifiers cannot effect the channel in the absence of Ca²⁺, or they require Ca²⁺ for maximum results. In this study of the high-affinity Ca²⁺ binding site, expected increases in total binding and shifts in the sensitivity of the channel to Ca²⁺ were observed when the pH increased or the solution redox status became more oxidative. Ranolazine, a drug used for treating Angina Pectoris (chest pain), desensitized the cardiac CRC activation but had no effect on the skeletal CRC. This selective desensitization may be the cause of Ranolazine's beneficial therapeutic effects. Both Ranolazine, and homocystein thiolactone (HCTL), a naturally occurring derivative of homocysteine, alters Ca²⁺ dependent activation by calcium without changing the number of channels found in the open state. Surprisingly the effect of HCTL was observed only in a reduced redox potential which leads to speculation that the formation of an alpha-carbon radical by HCTL on the cardiac CRC only occurs if select thiols are in a reduced state.

Full textAbstract:
The principle calcium regulator in the muscle cell is the calcium ion release channel (RyR). Improper calcium homeostasis in the muscle cell is the foundation of many pathological states and has been targeted as a contributing factor to ventricular tachycardia, which is known to precede sudden cardiac arrest.
Numerous endogenous and exogenous compounds can affect the way RyR regulates calcium. In this study the anthocyanidin Pelargonidin (Pg), an important natural colorant and dietary antioxidant, is evaluated for its effect on regulating the transport of calcium through the RyR1 of skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum. Pelargonidin undergoes time dependent structural changes in aqueous solutions at physiological pH and a mixture of up to seven forms of Pelargonidin are present in solution simultaneously. Pelargonidin is a unique RyR1 modulator. It can both stimulate and inhibit the RyR1 depending on the experimental conditions. In addition, when Pelargonidin is irradiated with white light, its inhibition properties on the RyR1 are essentially nullified. Proposed mechanisms include excited state charge shift within RyR1-Pg complexes.

The objectives of this study were to develop and optimize molecular techniques based on the DNA melting analysis for the detection of allele variants or SNPs in genes involved in the quality of animal products.
For the dairy industry the detection of the cow k-casein B allele (CSN3*B) is very important for the role of its codifying protein during the cheese making. It is known that the k-casein B allele plays a major role in cheese technology with great effects in the quality and quantity of cow milk. The availability of accurate and reliable protocols for the identification of the most common alleles is of great interest in breeding projects.
In the present study a denominated denaturant DNA melting analysis was developed using a new buffer to quickly identify A and B k-casein allelic variants. The DNA melting analysis is fast and suitable for the identification of A and B alleles.
The development of this denaturant buffer allows to enhance the discrimination power of the instrumentation. The same approach was used to detect SNPs in two important meat gene quality using an ad-hoc instrument for the melting analysis
The RYR1 and PRKAG3 genes have an important role in the meat quality, influencing the pH, water content, lean meat content and colour. The frequencies of their alleles were investigated in Bayern, Australian ans Sudtiroler pigs in order to test a high resolution DNA melting analysis protocol, which allows to detect a total of 6 genotypes in simple manner and in few minutes trough a post multiplex PCR.
It was possible to compare the sensibility obtained with the no-denaturant approach against the denaturant approach.
The observed frequencies were: 0.86, 0.13 and 0.01 for the N/N, N/n e n/n respectively for RYR1 gene and 0.17, 0.54, 0.29 for I/I, I/V and V/V for the PRKAG3 gene respectively.
Its is interesting to note that even if the pigs tested belonged to breed with attitude for high meat content and quality, a relatively high genotype frequency N/n and a relatively low genotype frequency I/I were found. In these productions, where meat quality is a relevant attribute, could be possible to enhance the favourable SNPs in bores and sows.
The denaturant buffer developed allows to detect with major detection level the homo/hetero genotypes of the RYR1 and PRKAG3 genes. This approach for the detection of known SNP is very fast, reliable and could substitute the specific enzymatic cleavage for the detection of specific substitutions.

Full textAbstract:
Heart failure resulting from different forms of cardiomyopathy is defined as the inability of the heart to pump sufficient blood to meet the body's metabolic demands. It is a major disease burden worldwide and the statistics show that 50% of the people who have the heart failure will eventually die from sudden cardiac death (SCD) associated with an arrhythmia. The central cause of disability and SCD is because of ventricular arrhythmias. Genetic mutations and acquired modifications to RyR2, the calcium release channel from sarcoplasmic reticulum, can increase the pathologic SR Ca2+ leak during diastole, which leads to defects in SR calcium handling and causes ventricular arrhythmias. The mechanism of RyR2 dysfunction includes abnormal phosphorylation, disrupted interaction with regulatory proteins and ions, or altered RyR2 domain interactions. Many pharmacological strategies have shown promising prospects to modulate the RyR2 as a therapy for treating cardiac arrhythmias. Here, we are trying to establish a novel approach to designing new drugs to treat heart failure and cardiac arrhythmias. Previously, we demonstrated that all pharmacological inhibitors of RyR channels are electron donors while all activators of RyR channels are electron acceptors. This was the first demonstration that an exchange of electrons was a common molecular mechanism involved in modifying the function of the RyR. Moreover, we found that there is a strong correlation between the strength of the electron donor/acceptor, and its potency as a channel inhibitor/activator, which could serve as a basis and direction for developing new drugs targeting the RyR. In this study, two new potent RyR inhibitors, 4-methoxy-3-methyl phenol (4-MmC) and the 1,3 dioxole derivative of K201, were synthesized which are derivatives of the known RyR modulators, 4-chloro-3-methyl phenol (4-CmC) and K201. The ability of K201, 1,3 dioxole derivative of K201 and 4-MmC to inhibit the cardiac calcium channel is examined and compared at the single channel level. All of these compounds inhibited the channel activity at low micromolar concentrations or sub-micromolar concentrations.

Full textAbstract:
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is an autosomal dominant, potentially lethal pharmacogenetic disorder of skeletal muscle, which is elicited by exposure to volatile anaesthetics and depolarising muscle relaxants. Susceptible individuals appear clinically normal, but may present with a hypermetabolic crisis and muscle contracture when exposed to triggering substances that elicit excessive release of calcium ions from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Diagnosis of MH susceptibility is currently made via the in vitro contracture test.
Genetically, in more than 50% of the affected families, MH occurs due to alterations in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor gene (RYR1) on chromosome 19q13.1. However, the disorder is genetically heterogeneous, as six other loci have to date been associated with MH susceptibility (MHS). Thus far, molecular tests have focused on three mutation hotspots of the RYR1 gene, which refer to regions that are more frequently mutated. Screening the entire RYR1 has led to a higher detection rate in a variety of populations.
In this study the entire coding region of the RYR1 gene was screened via sequencing for novel or reported alterations for the first time in 15 South African probands. Eight different RYR1 alterations were observed in seven MHS South African probands, six of which were previously reported and two of which were novel. Compound heterozygous alterations and alterations outside the mutation hotspots were detected. Screening of the entire coding region of the RYR1 gene is crucial for genetic investigations into MHS.
It was postulated that MH in the South African population is due to multifactorial inheritance in which a network of several genetic, environmental and epigenetic factors interact and cumulatively result in the development of the MH phenotype. Data generated in this study highlight the complexity of this disorder, further supporting a novel epigenetic aetiology for MH in the South African population.<br>Thesis (Ph.D. (Biochemistry))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2008.

La mort subite cardiaque est initiée par une tachycardie ventriculaire - ou une extrasystole ventriculaire - dégénérant en fibrillation ventriculaire. Les morts subites sont le plus souvent associées à des anomalies structurales du cœur ou d’origine ischémique. Cependant, certaines arythmies ventriculaires surviennent dans un contexte de cœur structurellement normal avec un ECG basal normal telles que les tachycardies ventriculaires polymorphes catécholaminergiques (CPVT) ou les torsades de pointes à couplage court (TdPcc). Le premier objectif de ma thèse a été d’étudier l’origine génétique des TdPcc grâce au séquençage d’exome de 20 patients. Cette étude nous a permis de démontrer l’hétérogénéité génétique de cette pathologie, mais aussi d’identifier une forte proportion de variants impliqués dans la régulation calcique du cœur. Nous avons analysé un variant perte de fonction CACNA1C induisant une perte de densité du courant calcique de type lent et une augmentation de l’inactivation dépendante du potentiel. Ce variant, fréquent dans la population africaine, est possiblement un facteur de vulnérabilité aux arythmies ventriculaires. Les études fonctionnelles de variants dans le gène RYR2 ont également été au centre de cette thèse avec l’identification de 3 variants RyR2 gain de fonction chez des patients atteints de TdPcc et d’un variant perte de fonction présent, pour la première fois, à l’état homozygote et hétérozygote chez deux familles atteintes de CPVT. Ce travail de thèse aura donc permis de mieux comprendre l’origine génétique des TdPcc et de montrer l’implication dans les TdPcc de deux gènes déjà bien connus dans les arythmies ventriculaires, CACNA1C et RYR2<br>Cardiac sudden death is due to ventricular tachycardia (VT) degenerating into ventricular fibrillation and asystole. Life-threatening arrhythmias are mostly associated with structural heart abnormalities or ischemia. In contrast, there are patients with no ECG abnormalities at basal level, such as catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) or short-coupled torsades de pointes (scTdP). The first aim of my thesis was to study the genetic origin of scTdP through exome sequencing of 20 patients. This study allowed us to show the genetic heterogeneity of this pathology, but also to identify a large proportion of variants involved in the cardiac calcium regulation. Among all identified variants, we analyzed a CACNA1C loss-of-function variant inducing a reduction in current density of the L-type calcium current and an increase of its voltage-dependent inactivation. This variant, present in 0.8% of the African population, is a new risk factor for ventricular arrhythmias. Functional studies were focused on 3 RYR2 variants leading to channel hyperactivity in patients with TdPcc and the identification of a loss-of-function variant present, for the first time, at the homozygous and the heterozygous states in two families with CPVT. This last variant lead to a blunted response to adrenergic stimulation. This work provided a better understanding of the genetics of scTdP and allowed us to show the involvement in scTdP of two genes already implicated in ventricular arrhythmias, CACNA1C and RYR2. The present studies confirm that RYR2 variants are responsible for several phenotypes associated with cardiac arrhythmias leading to sudden death
