Abstract
The beta-agonist isoproterenol (ISO) reduces the Na/K pump current (Ip) via beta-adrenergic receptors when the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i) is below 150 nM [8]. In the present study, the intracellular signaling pathway was investigated with whole-cell patch-clamp of isolated guinea pig ventricular myocytes. The inhibitory effect of ISO could be mimicked by external application of the membrane-permeant cAMP analog chlorophenylthio-cAMP (0.5 mM), the phosphodiesterase inhibitor isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX, 100 microM), or the adenylyl cyclase activator forskolin (50 microM). Intracellular application of the synthetic peptide inhibitor of protein kinase A (PKA), PKI (5 microM), prevented the effect of ISO. These results suggest that the inhibitory effect of ISO on Ip is mediated via a phosphorylation step induced by a cAMP-dependent PKA pathway. Neither the non-specific protein kinase inhibitor H7 (100 microM) nor the protein phosphatase inhibitor calyculin A (0.5 microM) had any effect on Ip in the absence of ISO. However, H7 could increase Ip and calyculin A could reduce it in the presence of ISO (1 microM and 12 nM respectively). These results indicate that there is a low basal level of phosphorylation whic...Continue Reading
