Protein kinase a (PKA)-dependent troponin-I phosphorylation and PKA regulatory subunits are decreased in human dilated cardiomyopathy

Most studies indicate that failing human hearts have greater baseline myofibrillar Ca2+ sensitivity of tension development than nonfailing hearts. Phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I (TnI) by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) decreases the affinity of the troponin complex for Ca2+, thus altering...

Zusammenfassung:Most studies indicate that failing human hearts have greater baseline myofibrillar Ca2+ sensitivity of tension development than nonfailing hearts. Phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I (TnI) by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA) decreases the affinity of the troponin complex for Ca2+, thus altering the Ca2+ sensitivity of force production. We tested the hypothesis that PKA-dependent TnI phosphorylation is altered in the failing human heart and investigated changes in PKA regulatory subunits as a potential mechanism. Using in vitro back-phosphorylation with [gamma-32P]ATP, we demonstrated a significant (P
