RESUMO
AIM: Bradyarrhythmias result from inhibition of automaticity, prolonged repolarization, or slow conduction in the heart. The ERG channels mediate the repolarizing current IKr in the cardiac action potential, whereas T-type calcium channels (TTCC) are involved in the sinoatrial pacemaker and atrioventricular conduction in mammals. Zebrafish have become a valuable research model for human cardiac electrophysiology and disease. Here, we investigate the contribution of ERG channels and TTCCs to the pacemaker and atrioventricular conduction in zebrafish larvae and determine the mechanisms causing atrioventricular block. METHODS: Zebrafish larvae expressing ratiometric fluorescent Ca2+ biosensors in the heart were used to measure Ca2+ levels and rhythm in beating hearts in vivo, concurrently with contraction and hemodynamics. The atrioventricular delay (the time between the start of atrial and ventricular Ca2+ transients) was used to measure impulse conduction velocity and distinguished between slow conduction and prolonged refractoriness as the cause of the conduction block. RESULTS: ERG blockers caused bradycardia and atrioventricular block by prolonging the refractory period in the atrioventricular canal and in working ventricular myocytes. In contrast, inhibition of TTCCs caused bradycardia and second-degree block (Mobitz type I) by slowing atrioventricular conduction. TTCC block did not affect ventricular contractility, despite being highly expressed in cardiomyocytes. Concomitant measurement of Ca2+ levels and ventricular size showed mechano-mechanical coupling: increased preload resulted in a stronger heart contraction in vivo. CONCLUSION: ERG channels and TTCCs influence the heart rate and atrioventricular conduction in zebrafish larvae. The zebrafish lines expressing Ca2+ biosensors in the heart allow us to investigate physiological feedback mechanisms and complex arrhythmias.

Adenylyl Cyclase 8E (AC8E), which lacks part of M1 transmembrane domain, has been previously shown to dimerize with AC3 and down-regulate its activity, but the molecular mechanism of this inhibitory effect has remained elusive. Here, we first show that AC8E also inhibits AC2 and AC6, highlighting the functional importance of this novel regulatory mechanism in the cAMP signaling pathway across AC families. We then completed the partial structure of Bos taurus AC9 using combinations of comparative modeling and fold recognition methods, and used this as a template to build the first full 3D-models of AC8 and AC8E. These models evidenced that the lack of M1 transmembrane domain of AC8E shifts the N-terminal domain, which impacts the orientation of the helical domains, thus affecting the catalytic site. This was confirmed in living cells with cAMP imaging, where we showed that the N-terminal domain is required for reducing cAMP production. Our data also show that AC8E prevents the translocation of other ACs towards the plasma membrane, further reducing the cAMP responsiveness to extracellular signals. This newly discovered dual inhibitory mechanism provides an additional level of regulation of cAMP-dependent signals integration.

The phospholamban mutation Arg 9 to Cys (R9C) has been found to cause a dilated cardiomyopathy in humans and in transgenic mice, with ventricular dilation and premature death. Emerging evidence suggests that phospholamban R9C is a loss-of-function mutation with dominant negative effect on SERCA2a activity. We imaged calcium and cardiac contraction simultaneously in 3 and 9 days-post-fertilization (dpf) zebrafish larvae expressing plnbR9C in the heart to unveil the early pathological pathway that triggers the disease. We generated transgenic zebrafish lines expressing phospholamban wild-type (Tg(myl7:plnbwt)) and phospholamban R9C (Tg(myl7:plnbR9C)) in the heart of zebrafish. To measure calcium and cardiac contraction in 3 and 9 dpf larvae, Tg(myl7:plnbwt) and Tg(myl7:plnbR9C) fish were outcrossed with a transgenic line expressing the ratiometric fluorescent calcium biosensor mCyRFP1-GCaMP6f. We found that PlnbR9C raised calcium transient amplitude, induced positive inotropy and lusitropy, and blunted the ß-adrenergic response to isoproterenol in 3 dpf larvae. These effects can be attributed to enhanced SERCA2a activity induced by the PlnbR9C mutation. In contrast, Tg(myl7:plnbR9C) larvae at 9 dpf exhibited ventricular dilation, systolic dysfunction and negative lusitropy, hallmarks of a dilated cardiomyopathy in humans. Importantly, N-acetyl-L-cysteine rescued this deleterious phenotype, suggesting that reactive oxygen species contribute to the pathological pathway. These results also imply that dysregulation of calcium homeostasis during embryo development contributes to the disease progression at later stages. Our in vivo model in zebrafish allows characterization of pathophysiological mechanisms leading to heart disease, and can be used for screening of potential therapeutical agents.

In vivo models of cardiac function maintain the complex relationship of cardiomyocytes with other heart cells, as well as the paracrine and mechanoelectrical feedback mechanisms. We aimed at imaging calcium transients simultaneously with heart contraction in zebrafish larvae. Methods: To image calcium in beating hearts, we generated a zebrafish transgenic line expressing the FRET-based ratiometric biosensor Twitch-4. Since emission ratioing canceled out the motion artifacts, we did not use myosin inhibitors or tnnt2a morpholinos to uncouple contraction from changes in calcium levels. We wrote an analysis program to automatically calculate kinetic parameters of the calcium transients. In addition, the ventricular diameter was determined in the fluorescence images providing a real-time measurement of contraction correlated with calcium. Results: Expression of Twitch-4 did not affect the force of contraction, the size of the heart nor the heart rate in 3- and 5-days post-fertilization (dpf) larvae. Comparison of 3 and 5 dpf larvae showed that calcium levels and transient amplitude were larger at 5 dpf, but the fractional shortening did not change. To validate the model, we evaluated the effect of drugs with known effects on cardiomyocytes. Calcium levels and the force of contraction decreased by the L-type calcium channel blocker nifedipine, whereas they increased with the activator Bay-K 8644. Caffeine induced bradycardia, markedly decreased ventricular diastolic calcium levels, increased the size of the calcium transients, and caused an escape rhythm in some larvae. Conclusions: The Tg(myl7:Twitch-4) line provides a physiological approach to image systolic and diastolic calcium levels in the heart of zebrafish larvae. Since the heart is beating, calcium levels and contraction can be correlated. This line will be a useful tool to address pathophysiological mechanisms in diseases like heart failure and arrhythmia, in cardiotoxicity studies and for drug screening.

ERK1/2 involvement in cell death remains unclear, although many studies have demonstrated the importance of ERK1/2 dynamics in determining cellular responses. To untangle how ERK1/2 contributes to two cell death programs, we investigated ERK1/2 signaling dynamics during hFasL-induced apoptosis and TNF-induced necroptosis in L929 cells. We observed that ERK1/2 inhibition sensitizes cells to apoptosis while delaying necroptosis. By monitoring ERK1/2 activity by live-cell imaging using an improved ERK1/2 biosensor (EKAR4.0), we reported differential ERK1/2 signaling dynamics between cell survival, apoptosis, and necroptosis. We also decrypted a temporally shifted amplitude- and frequency-modulated (AM/FM) ERK1/2 activity profile in necroptosis versus apoptosis. ERK1/2 inhibition, which disrupted ERK1/2 signaling dynamics, prevented TNF and IL-6 gene expression increase during TNF-induced necroptosis. Using an inducible cell line for activated MLKL, the final executioner of necroptosis, we showed ERK1/2 and its distinctive necroptotic ERK1/2 activity dynamics to be positioned downstream of MLKL.
RESUMO
Intracellular signaling with cyclic nucleotides are ubiquitous signaling pathways, yet the dynamics of these signals profoundly differ in different cell types. Biosensor imaging experiments, by providing direct measurements in intact cellular environment, reveal which receptors are activated by neuromodulators and how the coincidence of different neuromodulators is integrated at various levels in the signaling cascade. Phosphodiesterases appear as one important determinant of cross-talk between different signaling pathways. Finally, analysis of signal dynamics reveal that striatal medium-sized spiny neuron obey a different logic than other brain regions such as cortex, probably in relation with the function of this brain region which efficiently detects transient dopamine.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Dopamine in the striatum plays a crucial role in reward processes and action selection. Dopamine signals are transduced by D1 and D2 dopamine receptors which trigger mirror effects through the cAMP/PKA signalling cascade in D1 and D2 medium-sized spiny neurons (MSNs). Phosphodiesterases (PDEs), which determine the profile of cAMP signals, are highly expressed in MSNs, but their respective roles in dopamine signal integration remain poorly understood. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: We used genetically encoded FRET biosensors to monitor at the single cell level the functional contribution of PDE2A, PDE4 and PDE10A in the changes of the cAMP/PKA response to transient and continuous dopamine in mouse striatal brain slices. KEY RESULTS: We found that PDE2A, PDE4 and PDE10A operate on the moderate to high cAMP levels elicited by D1 or A2A receptor stimulation. In contrast, only PDE10A is able to reduce cAMP down to baseline in both type of neurones, leading to the dephosphorylation of PKA substrates. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS: In both MSN types, PDE10A inhibition blunts the responsiveness to dopamine, whereas PDE2A or PDE4 inhibition reinforces dopamine action.

Gamma-rays (γ-rays), wherever present, e.g., in medicine, nuclear environment, or homeland security, due to their strong impact on biological matter, should be closely monitored. There is a need for simple, sensitive γ-ray detectors at affordable prices. Here, it is shown that γ-ray detectors based on crystals of methylammonium lead tribromide (MAPbBr3) ideally meet these requirements. Specifically, the γ-rays incident on a MAPbBr3 crystal generates photocarriers with a high mobility-lifetime product, allowing radiation detection by photocurrent measurements at room temperatures. Moreover, the MAPbBr3 crystal-based detectors, equipped with improved carbon electrodes, can operate at low bias (≈1.0 V), hence being suitable for applications in energy-sparse environments, including space. The γ-ray detectors reported herein are exposed to radiation from a 60Co source at dose rates up to 2.3 Gy h-1 under ambient conditions for over 100 h, without any sign of degradation. The excellent radiation tolerance stems from the intrinsic structural plasticity of the organic-inorganic halide perovskites, which can be attributed to a defect-healing process by fast ion migration at the nanoscale level. The sensitivity of the γ-ray detection upon volume is tested for MAPbBr3 crystals reaching up to 1000 cm3 (3.3 kg in weight) grown by a unique crystal growth technique.
RESUMO
Zebrafish embryos have been proposed as a cost-effective vertebrate model to study heart function. Many fluorescent genetically encoded Ca2+ indicators (GECIs) have been developed, but those with ratiometric readout seem more appropriate to image a moving organ such as the heart. Four ratiometric GECIs based on troponin C, TN-XXL, Twitch-1, Twitch-2B, and Twitch-4 were expressed transiently in the heart of zebrafish embryos. Their emission ratio reported the Ca2+ levels in both the atrium and the ventricle. We measured several kinetic parameters of the Ca2+ transients: systolic and diastolic ratio, the amplitude of the systolic Ca2+ rise, the heart rate, as well as the rise and decay times and slopes. The systolic ratio change decreased in cells expressing high biosensor concentration, possibly caused by Ca2+ buffering. The GECIs were able to report the effect of nifedipine and propranolol on the heart, which resulted in changes in heart rate, diastolic and systolic Ca2+ levels, and Ca2+ kinetics. As a result, Twitch-1 and Twitch-4 (Kd 0.25 and 2.8 µM, respectively) seem the most promising GECIs for generating transgenic zebrafish lines, which could be used for modeling heart disorders, for drug screening, and for cardiotoxicity assessment during drug development.

The primary cilium (PC) is a small centrosome-assembled organelle, protruding from the surface of most eukaryotic cells. It plays a key role in cell migration, but the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Here, we show that the PC regulates neuronal migration via cyclic adenosine 3'-5' monosphosphate (cAMP) production activating centrosomal protein kinase A (PKA). Biosensor live imaging revealed a periodic cAMP hotspot at the centrosome of embryonic, postnatal, and adult migrating neurons. Genetic ablation of the PC, or knockdown of ciliary adenylate cyclase 3, caused hotspot disappearance and migratory defects, with defective centrosome dynamics and altered nucleokinesis. Delocalization of PKA from the centrosome phenocopied the migratory defects. Our results show that the PC and centrosome form a single cAMP signaling unit dynamically regulating migration, further highlighting the centrosome as a signaling hub.

Arterial remodeling in hypertension and intimal hyperplasia involves inflammation and disrupted flow, both of which contribute to smooth muscle cell dedifferentiation and proliferation. In this context, our previous results identified phosphoinositide 3-kinase γ (PI3Kγ) as an essential factor in inflammatory processes of the arterial wall. Here, we identify for the first time a kinase-independent role of nonhematopoietic PI3Kγ in the vascular wall during intimal hyperplasia using PI3Kγ-deleted mice and mice expressing a kinase-dead version of the enzyme. Moreover, we found that the absence of PI3Kγ in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) leads to modulation of cell proliferation, associated with an increase in intracellular cAMP levels. Real-time analysis of cAMP dynamics revealed that PI3Kγ modulates the degradation of cAMP in primary VSMCs independently of its kinase activity through regulation of the enzyme phosphodiesterase 4. Importantly, the use of an N-terminal competing peptide of PI3Kγ blocked primary VSMC proliferation. These data provide evidence for a kinase-independent role of PI3Kγ in arterial remodeling and reveal novel strategies targeting the docking function of PI3Kγ for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

The caudal part of the striatum, also named the tail of the striatum (TS), defines a fourth striatal domain. Determining whether rewarding, aversive and salient stimuli regulate the activity of striatal spiny projections neurons (SPNs) of the TS is therefore of paramount importance to understand its functions, which remain largely elusive. Taking advantage of genetically encoded biosensors (A-kinase activity reporter 3) to record protein kinase A signals and by analyzing the distribution of dopamine D1R- and D2R-SPNs in the TS, we characterized three subterritories: a D2R/A2aR-lacking, a D1R/D2R-intermingled and a D1R/D2R-SPNs-enriched area (corresponding to the amygdalostriatal transition). In addition, we provide evidence that the distribution of D1R- and D2R-SPNs in the TS is evolutionarily conserved (mouse, rat, gerbil). The in vivo analysis of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation in these TS subterritories in response to distinct appetitive, aversive and pharmacological stimuli revealed that SPNs of the TS are not recruited by stimuli triggering innate aversive responses, fasting, satiety, or palatable signals whereas a reduction in ERK phosphorylation occurred following learned avoidance. In contrast, D1R-SPNs of the intermingled and D2R/A2aR-lacking areas were strongly activated by both D1R agonists and psychostimulant drugs (d-amphetamine, cocaine, 3,4-methyl enedioxy methamphetamine, or methylphenidate), but not by hallucinogens. Finally, a similar pattern of ERK activation was observed by blocking selectively dopamine reuptake. Together, our results reveal that the caudal TS might participate in the processing of specific reward signals and discrete aversive stimuli. Cover Image for this issue: doi: 10.1111/jnc.14526.

The calcium-regulated phosphodiesterase 1 (PDE1) family is highly expressed in the brain, but its functional role in neurones is poorly understood. Using the selective PDE1 inhibitor Lu AF64196 and biosensors for cyclic nucleotides including a novel biosensor for cGMP, we analyzed the effect of PDE1 on cAMP and cGMP in individual neurones in brain slices from male newborn mice. Release of caged NMDA triggered a transient increase of intracellular calcium, which was associated with a decrease in cAMP and cGMP in medium spiny neurones in the striatum. Lu AF64196 alone did not increase neuronal cyclic nucleotide levels, but blocked the NMDA-induced reduction in cyclic nucleotides indicating that this was mediated by calcium-activated PDE1. Similar effects were observed in the prefrontal cortex and the hippocampus. Upon corelease of dopamine and NMDA, PDE1 was shown to down-regulate the D1-receptor mediated increase in cAMP. PDE1 inhibition increased long-term potentiation in rat ventral striatum, showing that PDE1 is implicated in the regulation of synaptic plasticity. Overall, our results show that PDE1 reduces cyclic nucleotide signaling in the context of glutamate and dopamine coincidence. This effect could have a therapeutic value for treating brain disorders related to dysfunctions in dopamine neuromodulation.

The opposing action of dopamine and acetylcholine has long been known to play an important role in basal ganglia physiology. However, the quantitative analysis of dopamine and acetylcholine signal interaction has been difficult to perform in the native context because the striatum comprises mainly two subtypes of medium-sized spiny neurons (MSNs) on which these neuromodulators exert different actions. We used biosensor imaging in live brain slices of dorsomedial striatum to monitor changes in intracellular cAMP at the level of individual MSNs. We observed that the muscarinic agonist oxotremorine decreases cAMP selectively in the MSN subpopulation that also expresses D1 dopamine receptors, an action mediated by the M4 muscarinic receptor. This receptor has a high efficacy on cAMP signaling and can shut down the positive cAMP response induced by dopamine, at acetylcholine concentrations which are consistent with physiological levels. This supports our prediction based on theoretical modeling that acetylcholine could exert a tonic inhibition on striatal cAMP signaling, thus supporting the possibility that a pause in acetylcholine release is required for phasic dopamine to transduce a cAMP signal in D1 MSNs. In vivo experiments with acetylcholinesterase inhibitors donepezil and tacrine, as well as with the positive allosteric modulators of M4 receptor VU0152100 and VU0010010 show that this effect is sufficient to reverse the increased locomotor activity of DAT-knockout mice. This suggests that M4 receptors could be a novel therapeutic target to treat hyperactivity disorders.

The fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) is an RNA-binding protein involved in translational regulation of mRNAs that play key roles in synaptic morphology and plasticity. The functional absence of FMRP causes the fragile X syndrome (FXS), the most common form of inherited intellectual disability and the most common monogenic cause of autism. No effective treatment is available for FXS. We recently identified the Phosphodiesterase 2A (Pde2a) mRNA as a prominent target of FMRP. PDE2A enzymatic activity is increased in the brain of Fmr1-KO mice, a recognized model of FXS, leading to decreased levels of cAMP and cGMP. Here, we pharmacologically inhibited PDE2A in Fmr1-KO mice and observed a rescue both of the maturity of dendritic spines and of the exaggerated hippocampal mGluR-dependent long-term depression. Remarkably, PDE2A blockade rescued the social and communicative deficits of both mouse and rat Fmr1-KO animals. Importantly, chronic inhibition of PDE2A in newborn Fmr1-KO mice followed by a washout interval, resulted in the rescue of the altered social behavior observed in adolescent mice. Altogether, these results reveal the key role of PDE2A in the physiopathology of FXS and suggest that its pharmacological inhibition represents a novel therapeutic approach for FXS.
