Mutant ryanodine receptors in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia generate delayed afterdepolarizations due to increased propensity to Ca2+ waves.

AIMS: Mutations in cardiac ryanodine receptors (RyR2s) are linked to catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), characterized by risk of polymorphic ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden death during exercise. Arrhythmias are caused by gain-of-function defects in RyR2, but cellular arrhythmogenesis remains elusive. METHODS AND RESULTS: We recorded endocardial monophasic action potentials (MAPs) at right ventricular septum in 15 CPVT patients with a RyR2 mutation (P2,328S, Q4,201R, and V4,653F) and in 12 control subjects both at baseline and during epinephrine infusion (0.05 microg/kg/min). At baseline 3 and during epinephrine infusion, four CPVT patients, but none of the control subjects, showed delayed afterdepolarizations (DADs) occasionally coinciding with ventricular premature complexes. In order to study the underlying mechanisms, we expressed two types of mutant RyR2 (P2,328S and V4,653F) causing CPVT as well as wild-type RyR2 in HEK 293 cells. Confocal microscopy of Fluo-3 loaded cells transfected with any of the three RyR2s showed no spontaneous subcellular Ca(2+) release events at baseline. Membrane permeable cAMP analogue (Dioctanoyl-cAMP) triggered subcellular Ca(2+) release events as Ca(2+) sparks and waves. Cells expressing mutant RyR2s showed spontaneous Ca(2+) release events at lower concentrations of cAMP than cells transfected with wild-type RyR2. CONCLUSION: CPVT patients show DADs coinciding with premature action potentials in MAP recordings. Expression studies suggest that DADs are caused by increased propensity of abnormal RyR2s to generate spontaneous Ca(2+) waves in response to cAMP stimulation. Increased sensitivity of mutant RyR2s to cAMP may explain the occurrence of arrhythmias during exercise or emotional stress in CPVT.     

Gating modifier toxins of voltage-gated calcium channels.

Some of the most potent and specific inhibitors of voltage-gated calcium channels are peptide toxins that inhibit channel function not by occlusion of the channel pore, but rather by interfering with the voltage dependence and kinetics of channel opening and closing. Many such gating modifier toxins conform to the inhibitor cystine knot structural family and have primary sequence or functional mechanism similar to toxins that target voltage-gated sodium or potassium channels. This review introduces known gating modifiers of calcium channels, discusses the selectivity, binding sites, and mechanism of the toxin-channel interaction, and reviews the usefulness of these toxins as research tools and as the basis for novel calcium channel pharmacology and therapeutics.     

Electrocrystallization of calcium carbonate on carbon-based electrodes

Calcium carbonate was deposited by electrochemical reduction of oxygen to hydroxyl ions at various carbon-based electrodes. Although some vaterite was observed during earlier stages of the electrodeposition, the predominant polymorph during later stages was calcite. The average crystal size reached a value of 15 μm after 10 h at a glassy carbon electrode but the crystal growth rate was substantially accelerated when oxygen was catalytically reduced. The same average size of the calcite crystals in this case (Pt/C electrode) was reached within a period of 1.5 h. Efficient removal of CaCO₃ from water was demonstrated when using a porous aerogel carbon electrode and a potential sufficiently negative to promote reduction of water molecules within the pores.
