ABSTRACT
Thermoregulation is an important aspect of human homeostasis, and high temperatures pose serious stresses for the body. Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a life-threatening disorder in which body temperature can rise to a lethal level. Here we employ an optically controlled local heat-pulse method to manipulate the temperature in cells with a precision of less than 1 °C and find that the mutants of ryanodine receptor type 1 (RyR1), a key Ca2+ release channel underlying MH, are heat hypersensitive compared with the wild type (WT). We show that the local heat pulses induce an intracellular Ca2+ burst in human embryonic kidney 293 cells overexpressing WT RyR1 and some RyR1 mutants related to MH. Fluorescence Ca2+ imaging using the endoplasmic reticulum-targeted fluorescent probes demonstrates that the Ca2+ burst originates from heat-induced Ca2+ release (HICR) through RyR1-mutant channels because of the channels' heat hypersensitivity. Furthermore, the variation in the heat hypersensitivity of four RyR1 mutants highlights the complexity of MH. HICR likewise occurs in skeletal muscles of MH model mice. We propose that HICR contributes an additional positive feedback to accelerate thermogenesis in patients with MH.
