Abstract

To elucidate microscopic mechanisms underlying the modulation of cardiac excitation-contraction (EC) coupling by beta-adrenergic receptor (beta-AR) stimulation, we examined local Ca(2+) release function, ie, Ca(2+) spikes at individual transverse tubule-sarcoplasmic reticulum (T-SR) junctions, using confocal microscopy and our recently developed technique for release flux measurement. beta-AR stimulation by norepinephrine plus an alpha(1)-adrenergic blocker, prazosin, increased the amplitude of SR Ca(2+) release flux (J(SR)), its running integral (integralJ(SR)), and L-type Ca(2+) channel current (I(Ca)), and it shifted their bell-shaped voltage dependence leftward by approximately 10 mV, with the relative effects ranking I(Ca)> J(SR)>integralJ(SR). Confocal imaging revealed that the bell-shaped voltage dependence of SR Ca(2+) release is attributable to a graded recruitment of T-SR junctions as well as to changes in Ca(2+) spike amplitudes. beta-AR stimulation increased the fractional T-SR junctions that fired Ca(2+) spikes and augmented Ca(2+) spike amplitudes, without altering the SR Ca(2+) load, suggesting that more release units were activated synchronously among and within T-SR junctions. Moreover, beta-AR stimulation decr...Continue Reading
