SERCA2a stimulation by istaroxime: a novel mechanism of action with translational implications.

Abstract:

UNLABELLED:Sarcoplasmic reticular (SR) Ca(2+) -ATPase (SERCA2a) is central to cardiac electrophysiological and mechanical function. It ensures full diastolic relaxation minimizing delayed after-potentials that would otherwise compromise membrane electrophysiological stability, and optimizes SR Ca(2+) refilling and systolic contraction. Previous studies demonstrated that the small molecule agent istaroxime stimulates SERCA2a-ATPase activity, restoring its function in failing hearts, and enhancing indices of mechanical, and SR Ca(2+) release and re-uptake, activity. Ferrandi et al (2013) now elegantly demonstrate its ability to dissociate the phospholamdan (PB) bound to cardiac SERCA2a, thereby removing the inhibitory effect of PB on SERCA2a. This effect was independent of the cAMP/PKA system and modified a specific SERCA2a reaction step. They used SERCA-enriched SR preparations from a rigorously validated and realistic physiological, canine model of cardiac failure with established Na(+) -K(+) -ATPase sensitivity to cardiac glycosides and SR Ca(2+) handling features. These findings potentially translate into a novel management of the major and increasingly important public health challenge of chronic cardiac failure.
