Thus, the identification of new antiarrhythmic targets is of clinical interest. Recent genome studies suggested an involvement of SCN10A sodium channels (NaV1.8) in atrial electrophysiology. This study investigated the role and involvement of NaV1.8 (SCN10A) in arrhythmia generation in the human atria and in mice lacking NaV1.8. NaV1.8 mRNA and protein were detected in human atrial myocardium at a significant higher level compared to ventricular myocardium. Expression of NaV1.8 and NaV1.5 did not differ between myocardium from patients with atrial fibrillation and sinus rhythm. To determine the electrophysiological role of NaV1.8, we investigated isolated human atrial cardiomyocytes from patients with sinus rhythm stimulated with isoproterenol. Inhibition of NaV1.8 by A-803467 or PF-01247324 showed no effects on the human atrial action potential. However, we found that NaV1.8 significantly contributes to late Na+ current and consequently to an increased proarrhythmogenic diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ leak in human atrial cardiomyocytes. Selective pharmacological inhibition of NaV1.8 potently reduced late Na+ current, proarrhythmic diastolic Ca2+ release, delayed afterdepolarizations as well as spontaneous action potentials. These findings could be confirmed in murine atrial cardiomyocytes from wild-type mice and also compared to SCN10A−/− mice (genetic ablation of NaV1.8). Pharmacological NaV1.8 inhibition showed no effects in SCN10A−/− mice. Importantly, in vivo experiments in SCN10A−/− mice showed that genetic ablation of NaV1.8 protects against atrial fibrillation induction. This study demonstrates that NaV1.8 is expressed in the murine and human atria and contributes to late Na+ current generation and cellular arrhythmogenesis. Blocking NaV1.8 selectively counteracts this pathomechanism and protects against atrial arrhythmias. Thus, our translational study reveals a new selective therapeutic target for treating atrial arrhythmias."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s00395-020-0780-8"],["dc.identifier.pmid","32078054"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/70756"],["dc.identifier.url","https://sfb1002.med.uni-goettingen.de/production/literature/publications/349"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI Import GROB-354"],["dc.relation","SFB 1002: Modulatorische Einheiten bei Herzinsuffizienz"],["dc.relation","SFB 1002 | D01: Erholung aus der Herzinsuffizienz – Einfluss von Fibrose und Transkriptionssignatur"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG Hasenfuß (Transition zur Herzinsuffizienz)"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG L.

Clinical data indicate that the arrhythmic component of AF may contribute to left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. Objective: This study investigates the effects and molecular mechanisms of AF on the human LV. Methods and Results: Ventricular myocardium from patients with aortic stenosis and preserved LV function with sinus rhythm or rate-controlled AF was studied. LV myocardium from patients with sinus rhythm and patients with AF showed no differences in fibrosis. In functional studies, systolic Ca 2+ transient amplitude of LV cardiomyocytes was reduced in patients with AF, while diastolic Ca 2+ levels and Ca 2+ transient kinetics were not statistically different. These results were confirmed in LV cardiomyocytes from nonfailing donors with sinus rhythm or AF. Moreover, normofrequent AF was simulated in vitro using arrhythmic or rhythmic pacing (both at 60 bpm). After 24 hours of AF-simulation, human LV cardiomyocytes from nonfailing donors showed an impaired Ca 2+ transient amplitude. For a standardized investigation of AF-simulation, human iPSC-cardiomyocytes were tested. Seven days of AF-simulation caused reduced systolic Ca 2+ transient amplitude and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ load likely because of an increased diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ leak. Moreover, cytosolic Na + concentration was elevated and action potential duration was prolonged after AF-simulation. We detected an increased late Na + current as a potential trigger for the detrimentally altered Ca 2+ /Na + -interplay. Mechanistically, reactive oxygen species were higher in the LV of patients with AF. CaMKII (Ca 2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IIδc) was found to be more oxidized at Met281/282 in the LV of patients with AF leading to an increased CaMKII activity and consequent increased RyR2 phosphorylation. CaMKII inhibition and ROS scavenging ameliorated impaired systolic Ca 2+ handling after AF-simulation. Conclusions: AF causes distinct functional and molecular remodeling of the human LV. This translational study provides the first mechanistic characterization and the potential negative impact of AF in the absence of tachycardia on the human ventricle."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1161/CIRCRESAHA.121.319718"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/106071"],["dc.identifier.url","https://sfb1002.med.uni-goettingen.de/production/literature/publications/438"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-530"],["dc.relation","SFB 1002: Modulatorische Einheiten bei Herzinsuffizienz"],["dc.relation","SFB 1002 | D01: Erholung aus der Herzinsuffizienz – Einfluss von Fibrose und Transkriptionssignatur"],["dc.relation.eissn","1524-4571"],["dc.relation.issn","0009-7330"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG Hasenfuß (Transition zur Herzinsuffizienz)"],["dc.rights","CC BY-NC-ND 4.0"],["dc.title","Effects of Atrial Fibrillation on the Human Ventricle"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.subtype","original_ja"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Ranolazine in combination with low dose dronedarone remarkably reduced AF-burden in the phase II HARMONY trial. We thus aimed to investigate the possible mechanisms underlying these results. Methods and results: Patch clamp experiments revealed that ranolazine (5 mu M), low-dose dronedarone (0.3 mu M), and the combination significantly prolonged action potential duration (APD(90)) in atrial myocytes from patients in sinus rhythm (prolongation by 23.5 +/- 0.1%, 31.7 +/- 0.1% and 25.6 +/- 0.1% respectively). Most importantly, in atrial myocytes from patients with AF ranolazine alone, but more the combination with dronedarone, also prolonged the typically abbreviated APD(90) (prolongation by 21.6 +/- 0.1% and 31.9 +/- 0.1% respectively). It was clearly observed that neither ranolazine, dronedarone nor the combination significantly changed the APD or contractility and twitch force in ventricular myocytes or trabeculae from patients with heart failure (HF). Interestingly ranolazine, and more so the combination, but not dronedarone alone, caused hyperpolarization of the resting membrane potential in cardiomyocytes from AF. As measured by confocal microscopy (Fluo-3), ranolazine, dronedarone and the combination significantly suppressed diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ leak in myocytes from sinus rhythm (reduction by ranolazine: 89.0 +/- 30.7%, dronedarone: 75.6 +/- 27.4% and combination: 78.0 +/- 272%), in myocytes from AF (reduction by ranolazine: 67.6 +/- 33.7%, dronedarone: 86.5 +/- 31.7% and combination: 81.0 +/- 33.3%), as well as in myocytes from HF (reduction by ranolazine: 64.8 +/- 26.5% and dronedarone: 65.9 +/- 29.3%). Conclusions: Electrophysiological measurements during exposure to ranolazine alone or in combination with low-dose dronedarone showed APD prolongation, cellular hyperpolarization and reduced SR Ca2+ leak in human atrial myocytes. The combined inhibitory effects on various currents, in particular Na+ and K+ currents, may explain the anti-AF effects observed in the HARMONY trial. Therefore, the combination of ranolazine and dronedarone, but also ranolazine alone, may be promising new treatment options for AF, especially in patients with HF, and merit further clinical investigation.

Surprisingly, empagliflozin reduced mortality and hospitalization for heart failure (HF) compared to placebo. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, our study aims to investigate whether empagliflozin may cause direct pleiotropic effects on the myocardium. Methods and results In order to assess possible direct myocardial effects of empagliflozin, we performed contractility experiments with in toto-isolated human systolic end-stage HF ventricular trabeculae. Empagliflozin significantly reduced diastolic tension, whereas systolic force was not changed. These results were confirmed in murine myocardium from diabetic and non-diabetic mice, suggesting independent effects from diabetic conditions. In human HF cardiomyocytes, empagliflozin did not influence calcium transient amplitude or diastolic calcium level. The mechanisms underlying the improved diastolic function were further elucidated by studying myocardial fibres from patients and rats with diastolic HF (HF with preserved ejection fraction, HFpEF). Empagliflozin beneficially reduced myofilament passive stiffness by enhancing phosphorylation levels of myofilament regulatory proteins. Intravenous injection of empagliflozin in anaesthetized HFpEF rats significantly improved diastolic function measured by echocardiography, while systolic contractility was unaffected. Conclusion Empagliflozin causes direct pleiotropic effects on the myocardium by improving diastolic stiffness and hence diastolic function. These effects were independent of diabetic conditions. Since pharmacological therapy of diastolic dysfunction and HF is an unmet need, our results provide a rationale for new translational studies and might also contribute to the understanding of the EMPA-REG OUTCOME trial."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1002/ejhf.1328"],["dc.identifier.pmid","30328645"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/57583"],["dc.identifier.url","https://sfb1002.med.uni-goettingen.de/production/literature/publications/239"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.relation","SFB 1002: Modulatorische Einheiten bei Herzinsuffizienz"],["dc.relation","SFB 1002 | A11: Absolute Arrhythmie bei Vorhofflimmern - ein neuer Mechanismus, der zu einer Störung von Ca2+-Homöostase und elektrischer Stabilität in der Transition zur Herzinsuffizienz führt"],["dc.relation.issn","1879-0844"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG Hasenfuß (Transition zur Herzinsuffizienz)"],["dc.relation.workinggroup","RG L.
