Evidence for a sustained effectiveness of sodium-channel activators in failing human myocardium.

Abstract：

:Elevation of cytosolic sodium is thought to be correlated with an increase in force of contraction due to an activation of sodium-calcium exchange. We investigated the inotropic response mediated by the new sodium-channel activator BDF 9148 (0.01-100 mumol/l) on failing human myocardium. Force of contraction was studied using electrically driven human papillary muscle strips from moderately (NYHA II-III, mitral valve replacement) and terminally (NYHA IV, heart transplantation) failing hearts. We also investigated the effects in auricular trabeculae from non-failing hearts (aortocoronary bypass operation). Results were compared with inotropic responses to DPI 201-106 (DPI, 0.1-3 mumol/l), Ca2+ (1.8-15 mmol/l) and isoprenaline (0.001-1 mumol/l). Carbachol (100 mumol/l) and adenosine (1000 mumol/l) were examined in the presence of BDF 9148 and isoprenaline. Both sodium-channel activators, BDF 9148 and DPI 201-106, increased force of contraction in a dose-dependent manner in papillary muscle strips as well as in auricular trabeculae. BDF 9148 and DPI 201-106 were more effective (max. PIE NYHA II-III 1.6 +/- 0.2 mN, NYHA IV 5.9 +/- 0.7 mN, P less than 0.05) and more potent (EC50 (in mumol/l): NYHA IV 0.35, 0.19-0.66; NYHA II-III 1.85, 1.37-2.41) in terminally failing as compared to moderately failing left ventricular myocardium. Moreover, the positive inotropic effects of BDF 9148 were greater than those of DPI 201-106 in NYHA IV (max. PIE 2.7 +/- 0.3 mN, P less than 0.05). In NYHA IV, BDF 9148 was as effective as CA2+ (max. PIE 5.1 +/- 0.4 mN). In the same hearts, the positive inotropic effects of isoprenaline were reduced in NYHA IV (max. PIE 2.1 +/- 0.3 mN) compared to NYHA II-III (max. PIE 3.4 +/- 0.4 mN, P less than 0.05). Adenosine as well as carbachol did not affect the positive inotropic response of BDF 9148 or DPI 201-106 but reduced the effectiveness of isoprenaline (P less than 0.05). In myocardial membranes, BDF 9148 was 1000-fold less effective in competition experiments with 3H-ouabain than ouabain. We conclude that (1) sodium-channel activators may produce a significant cAMP-independent positive inotropic effect in left ventricular myocardium from failing human hearts; (2) the inotropic effect of sodium-channel activators were more potent and more effective in NYHA IV as compared to NYHA II-III. The degree of myocardial failure does not reduce the effectiveness of the sodium-channel activator BDF 9148.
