Nanoscale organization of cardiac calcium channels is dependent on thyroid hormone status.
Thyroid hormone dysfunction is frequently observed in patients with chronic illnesses including heart failure which increases risk of adverse events. This study examined effects of thyroid hormones (TH) on cardiac T-tubule (TT) integrity, Ca2+ sparks, and nanoscale organization of ion channels in excitation-contraction (EC)-coupling, including L-type calcium channel (Cav1.2), ryanodine receptor-type 2 (RyR2), and junctophilin-2 (Jph2). TH deficiency was established in adult female rats by propyl-thiouracil (PTU) ingestion for 8 weeks; followed by randomization to continued PTU without or with oral triiodo-L-thyronine (T3; 10 ug/kg/d) for two additional weeks (PTU+T3). Confocal microscopy of isolated cardiomyocytes (CM) showed significant misalignment of TTs, and increased Ca2+ sparks in thyroid-deficient CMs. Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN) analysis of STochastic Optical Reconstruction Microscopy (STORM) images showed decreased (p<0.0001) RyR2 cluster number per cell area in PTU CMs compared to euthyroid (EU) control myocytes, and this was normalized by T3-treatment. Cav1.2 channels and Jph2 localized within 210 nm radius of the RyR2 clusters were significantly reduced in PTU myocytes, and these values were increased with T3 treatment. A significant percentage of the RyR2 clusters in the PTU myocytes had neither Cav1.2 or Jph2, suggesting fewer functional clusters in EC-coupling. Nearest neighbor distances between RyR2 clusters were greater (p<0.001) in PTU cells compared to EU and T3-treated CMs that corresponds to disarray of TTs at the sarcomere z-discs. These results support a regulatory role of T3 in the nanoscale organization of RyR2 clusters and co-localization of Cav1.2 and Jph2 in optimizing EC-coupling.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology publishes original investigations, reviews and perspectives on the physiology of the heart, vasculature, and lymphatics. These articles include experimental and theoretical studies of cardiovascular function at all levels of organization ranging from the intact and integrative animal and organ function to the cellular, subcellular, and molecular levels. The journal embraces new descriptions of these functions and their control systems, as well as their basis in biochemistry, biophysics, genetics, and cell biology. Preference is given to research that provides significant new mechanistic physiological insights that determine the performance of the normal and abnormal heart and circulation.
