Popis: Genetic deletion of Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3Kγ) in mice (PI3Kγ -/- ) results in increased cAMP levels and enhanced ventricular contractility. We investigated whether the lack of PI3Kγ plays a role in cardiac contractility by altering intracellular calcium recycling. Isolated cardiomyocytes from PI3Kγ -/- mice showed significantly reduced calcium reuptake by sarcoendoplasmic reticulum (SR) following caffeine induced calcium release indicating that PI3Kγ locally regulates the function of SR. The intracellular calcium remained at elevated levels in the cardiomyocytes of PI3Kγ -/- for a prolonged period after caffeine treatment. This could be due to changes in phosphorylation of SERCA2, Ryanodine receptor (RyR 2 ) or phospholamban (PLN). In fact, when we looked at phosphorylation of PLN in cardiac lysates, a major regulator of cardiac contractility and relaxation, PI3Kγ -/- mice showed significantly reduced PLN phosphorylation compared to littermate controls. Previous studies from our laboratory suggested that absence of PI3Kγ leads to increase in protein phosphatase (PP) activity which could be possible reason for rapid dephosphorylation of PLN, resulting in inhibition of SERCA2 pump. We observed increased SR associated PP activity and PLN associated PP activity in PI3Kγ -/- mice. We also observed increased association of PP-1 and PP2A with PLN in the absence of PI3Kγ. The altered calcium handling in the cardiomyocytes of PI3Kγ -/- mice could be restored to the level of WT controls by okadaic acid mediated inhibition of PP, suggesting that PI3Kγ plays a role in regulating PP activity associated with SR. To test whether PI3Kγ activity is required for PLN dephosphorylation and SR calcium cycling, we used mice with cardiac specific overexpression of kinase dead PI3Kγ (PI3Kγ inact ) in global PI3Kγ -/- mice (PI3Kγ inact /PI3Kγ -/- ). PI3Kγ inact /PI3Kγ -/- mice showed restored PLN phosphorylation, improved caffeine induced calcium reuptake, decreased SR and PLN associated PP activity. These studies show a novel regulation of PP and SR calcium regulation by kinase independent function of PI3Kγ. The underlying mechanism of PP regulation by PI3Kγ will be presented.
