Abstrakt: Aims: The sympathetic nervous system increases HR by activating β-adrenergic receptors (β-ARs) and increasing cAMP in sinoatrial node (SAN) myocytes while phosphodiesterases (PDEs) degrade cAMP. Chronotropic incompetence, the inability to regulate heart rate (HR) in response to sympathetic nervous system activation, is common in hypertensive heart disease; however, the basis for this is poorly understood. The objective of this study was to determine the mechanisms leading to chronotropic incompetence in mice with angiotensin II (AngII)-induced hypertensive heart disease.
Methods and Results: C57BL/6 mice were infused with saline or AngII (2.5 mg/kg/day for 3 weeks) to induce hypertensive heart disease. HR and SAN function in response to the β-AR agonist isoproterenol (ISO) were studied in vivo using telemetry and electrocardiography, in isolated atrial preparations using optical mapping, in isolated SAN myocytes using patch-clamping, and using molecular biology. AngII-infused mice had smaller increases in HR in response to physical activity and during acute ISO injection. Optical mapping of the SAN in AngII-infused mice demonstrated impaired increases in conduction velocity and altered conduction patterns in response to ISO. Spontaneous AP firing responses to ISO in isolated SAN myocytes from AngII-infused mice were impaired due to smaller increases in diastolic depolarization (DD) slope, hyperpolarization-activated current (If), and L-type Ca2+ current (ICa,L). These changes were due to increased localization of PDE4D surrounding β1- and β2-ARs in the SAN, increased SAN PDE4 activity, and reduced cAMP generation in response to ISO. Knockdown of PDE4D using a virus-delivered shRNA or inhibition of PDE4 with rolipram normalized SAN sensitivity to β-AR stimulation in AngII-infused mice.
Conclusions: AngII-induced hypertensive heart disease results in impaired HR responses to β-AR stimulation due to up-regulation of PDE4D and reduced effects of cAMP on spontaneous AP firing in SAN myocytes.
