This study aimed to test the hypothesis that CaMKII increases SK current in human chronic AF. MATERIAL AND METHODS Right atrial appendage tissues from patients with either sinus rhythm (SR) or AF and neonatal rat atrial myocytes were used. Patch clamp, qRT-PCR, and Western blotting techniques were used to perform the study. RESULTS Compared to SR, the apamin-sensitive SK current (IKAS) was significantly increased, but the mRNA and protein levels of SK1, SK2, and SK3 were significantly decreased. In AF, the steady-state Ca2+ response curve of [i]IKAS[/i] was shifted leftward and the [Ca2+]i level was significantly increased. CaMKII inhibitors (KN-93 or autocamtide-2-related inhibitory peptide (AIP)) reduced the IKAS in both AF and SR. The inhibitory effect of KN-93 or AIP on [i]IKAS[/i] was greater in AF than in SR. The expression levels of calmodulin, CaMKII, and autophosphorylated CaMKII at Thr287 (but not at Thr286) were significantly increased in AF. Furthermore, KN-93 inhibited the expression of (Thr287)p-CaMKII and SK2 in neonatal rat atrial myocytes. CONCLUSIONS SK current is increased via the enhanced activation of CaMKII in patients with AF. This finding may explain the difference between SK current and channels expression in AF, and thus may provide a therapeutic target for AF."xsd:string |
