ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Duchenne muscular dystrophy patients are prone to ventricular arrhythmias, which may be caused by abnormal calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis and elevated reactive oxygen species. CaMKII (Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II) is vital for normal Ca2+ homeostasis, but excessive CaMKII activity contributes to abnormal Ca2+ homeostasis and arrhythmias in cardiomyocytes. Reactive oxygen species induce CaMKII to become autonomously active. We hypothesized that genetic inhibition of CaMKII oxidation (ox-CaMKII) in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy can alleviate abnormal Ca2+ homeostasis, thus, preventing ventricular arrhythmia. The objective of this study was to test if selective loss of ox-CaMKII affects ventricular arrhythmias in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. METHODS AND

RESULTS:

5-(6)-Chloromethyl-2,7-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate staining revealed increased reactive oxygen species production in ventricular myocytes isolated from mdx mice, which coincides with elevated ventricular ox-CaMKII demonstrated by Western blotting. Genetic inhibition of ox-CaMKII by knockin replacement of the regulatory domain methionines with valines (MM-VV [CaMKII M281/282V]) prevented ventricular tachycardia in mdx mice. Confocal calcium imaging of ventricular myocytes isolated from mdxMM-VV mice revealed normalization of intracellular Ca2+ release events compared with cardiomyocytes from mdx mice. Abnormal action potentials assessed by optical mapping in mdx mice were also alleviated by genetic inhibition of ox-CaMKII. Knockout of the NADPH oxidase regulatory subunit p47 phox normalized elevated ox-CaMKII, repaired intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis, and rescued inducible ventricular arrhythmias in mdx mice.

CONCLUSIONS:

Inhibition of reactive oxygen species or ox-CaMKII protects against proarrhythmic intracellular Ca2+ handling and prevents ventricular arrhythmia in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
