1. Mechanism of reverse rate-dependent action of cardioactive agents
T Bányász, L Bárándi, G Harmati, L Virág, N Szentandrássy, I Márton, A Zaza, A Varró, P P Nánási Curr Med Chem. 2011;18(24):3597-606. doi: 10.2174/092986711796642355.
Class 3 antiarrhythmic agents exhibit reverse rate-dependent lengthening of the action potential duration (APD), i.e. changes in APD are greater at longer than at shorter cycle lengths. In spite of the several theories developed to explain this reverse rate-dependency, its mechanism has been clarified only recently. The aim of the present study is to elucidate the mechanisms responsible for reverse rate-dependency in mammalian ventricular myocardium. Action potentials were recorded using conventional sharp microelectrodes from human, canine, rabbit, guinea pig, and rat ventricular myocardium in a rate-dependent manner. Rate-dependent drug-effects of various origin were studied using agents known to lengthen or shorten action potentials allowing thus to determine the drug-induced changes in APD as a function of the cycle length. Both drug-induced lengthening and shortening of action potentials displayed reverse rate-dependency in human, canine, and guinea pig preparations, but not in rabbit and rat myocardium. Similar results were obtained when repolarization was modified by injection of inward or outward current pulses in isolated canine cardiomyocytes. In contrast to reverse rate-dependence, drug-induced changes in APD well correlated with baseline APD values (i.e. that measured before the superfusion of drug or injection of current) in all of the preparations studied. Since the net membrane current (I(net)), determined from the action potential waveform at the middle of the plateau, was inversely proportional to APD, and consequently to cycle length, it is concluded that that reverse rate-dependency may simply reflect the inverse relationship linking I(net) to APD. In summary, reverse rate-dependency is an intrinsic property of drug action in the hearts of species showing positive APD - cycle length relationship, including humans. This implies that development of a pure K(+) channel blocking agent without reverse rate-dependent effects is not likely to be successful.
2. Biosynthesis and incorporation of an alkylproline-derivative (APD) precursor into complex natural products
J Janata, Z Kamenik, R Gazak, S Kadlcik, L Najmanova Nat Prod Rep. 2018 Mar 1;35(3):257-289. doi: 10.1039/c7np00047b. Epub 2018 Mar 8.
Covering: up to 2017This review covers the biosynthetic and evolutionary aspects of lincosamide antibiotics, antitumour pyrrolobenzodiazepines (PBDs) and the quorum-sensing molecule hormaomycin. These structurally and functionally diverse groups of complex natural products all incorporate rarely occurring 4-alkyl-l-proline derivatives (APDs) biosynthesized from l-tyrosine through an unusual specialized pathway catalysed by a common set of six proteins named Apd1-Apd6. We give an overview of APD formation, which involves unusual enzyme activities, and its incorporation, which is based either on nonribosomal peptide synthetase (PBDs, hormaomycin) or a unique hybrid ergothioneine-dependent condensation system followed by mycothiol-dependent sulphur atom incorporation (lincosamides). Furthermore, within the public databases, we identified 36 novel unannotated biosynthetic gene clusters that putatively encode the biosynthesis of APD compounds. Their products presumably include novel PBDs, but also novel classes of APD compounds, indicating an unprecedented potential for the diversity enhancement of these functionally versatile complex metabolites. In addition, phylogenetic analysis of known and novel gene clusters for the biosynthesis of APD compounds allowed us to infer novel evolutionary hypotheses: Apd3 methyltransferase originates from a duplication event in a hormaomycin biosynthetic gene cluster ancestor, while putative Apd5 isomerase is evolutionarily linked to PhzF protein from the biosynthesis of phenazines. Lastly, we summarize the achievements in preparing hybrid APD compounds by directing their biosynthesis, and we propose that the number of nature-like APD compounds could by multiplied by replacing l-proline residues in various groups of complex metabolites with APD, i.e. by imitating the natural process that occurs with lincosamides and PBDs, in which the replacement of l-proline for APD has proved to be an evolutionary successful concept.
3. Implication of frequency-dependent protocols in antiarrhythmic and proarrhythmic drug testing
Péter P Nánási, Zoltán Szabó, Kornél Kistamás, Balázs Horváth, László Virág, Norbert Jost, Tamás Bányász, János Almássy, András Varró Prog Biophys Mol Biol. 2020 Nov;157:76-83. doi: 10.1016/j.pbiomolbio.2019.11.001. Epub 2019 Nov 11.
It has long been known that the electrophysiological effects of many cardioactive drugs strongly depend on the rate dependent frequency. This was recognized first for class I antiarrhythmic agents: their Vmax suppressive effect was attenuated at long cycle lengths. Later many Ca2+ channel blockers were also found to follow such kinetics. The explanation was provided by the modulated and the guarded receptor theories. Regarding the duration of cardiac action potentials (APD) an opposite frequency-dependence was observed, i.e. the drug-induced changes in APD were proportional with the cycle length of stimulation, therefore it was referred as "reverse rate-dependency". The beat-to-beat, or short term variability of APD (SV) has been recognized as an important proarrhythmic mechanism, its magnitude can be used as an arrhythmia predictor. SV is modulated by several cardioactive agents, however, these drugs modify also APD itself. In order to clear the drug-specific effects on SV from the concomitant unspecific APD-change related ones, the term of "relative variability" was introduced. Relative variability is increased by ion channel blockers that decrease the negative feedback control of APD (i.e. blockers of ICa, IKr and IKs) and also by elevation of cytosolic Ca2+. Cardiac arrhythmias are also often categorized according to the characteristic heart rate (tachy- and bradyarrhythmias). Tachycardia is proarrhythmic primarily due to the concomitant Ca2+ overload causing delayed afterdepolarizations. Early afterdepolarizations (EADs) are complications of the bradycardic heart. What is common in the reverse rate-dependent nature of drug action on APD, increased SV and EAD incidence associated with bradycardia.
