Role of beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptors in regulation of Clminus and Ca2+ channels in guinea pig ventricular myocytes

The role of beta 1- and beta 2-adrenergic receptor stimulation in modulating adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP)-regulated Cl- and Ca2+ currents was investigated with use of guinea pig ventricular myocytes. Activation of the Cl- current by the nonselective beta -receptor agonist isoproterenol (Iso) was not affected by the beta 2-receptor antagonist ICI-118,551 (ICI), but it was blocked by the beta 1-receptor antagonist atenolol. The inability of beta 2-receptor stimulation to activate the Cl- current was confirmed by the lack of response to the selective beta 2-receptor agonists salbutamol and zinterol. Responses to beta 2-adrenergic receptor stimulation were also looked for in pertussis toxin (PTX)-treated myocytes because PTX increases the sensitivity of responses to Iso, and PTX has been reported to increase the responsiveness to beta 2- but not beta 1-receptor stimulation. PTX treatment increased the sensitivity of the Cl- current to activation by Iso in the presence of ICI, indicating that PTX increases beta 1-receptor responsiveness. PTX treatment also resulted in the ability of salbutamol to activate the Cl- current. However, the response to salbutamol was blocked by atenolol but not by appropriate concentrations of ICI, suggesting that salbutamol was activating beta 1-receptors. These results indicate that PTX treatment increases the sensitivity to beta 1-receptor stimulation, without affecting beta 2-responsiveness. To verify that the lack of response to beta 2-receptor stimulation was not unique to the Cl- current, the effects of beta 2-receptor agonists on the L-type Ca2+ current were also examined. The Ca2+ current was only affected by high concentrations of zinterol or salbutamol, and such responses were blocked by atenolol, but not by ICI, suggesting that activation of beta 1-receptors was involved. These results indicate that beta 1- but not beta 2-adrenergic receptor stimulation plays an important role in modulating the cAMP-regulated Cl- and Ca2+ currents in guinea pig ventricular myocytes.
