The enzymatic pathway responsible for the
production and metabolism of cyclic ADP-ribose (cADP-R) in small bovine
coronary arteries was characterized, and the role of cADP-R and
ADP-ribose (ADP-R) in the regulation of the activity of
large-conductance Ca2+-activated
K+
(KCa) channels was determined in
vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) prepared from these vessels. We
found that cADP-R and ADP-R were produced when the coronary arterial
homogenates were incubated with 1 mM
-NAD. The time course of the
enzyme reactions showed that the maximal conversion rate (1.37 ± 0.03 nmol · min
1 · mg
protein
1) of
-NAD to
cADP-R was reached after 3 min of incubation. As incubation time was
prolonged, the production of ADP-R was increased to a maximal rate of
3.66 ± 0.03 nmol · min
1 · mg
protein
1, whereas cADP-R
production decreased. Incubation of the homogenate with cADP-R produced
a time-dependent increase in the synthesis of ADP-R. Comparison of
coronary arterial microsomes with cytosols shows that the production of
both cADP-R and ADP-R in microsomes was significantly greater. In
excised inside-out membrane patches of single coronary SMC, the
KCa channels were activated when
-NAD, the precursor for both cADP-R and ADP-R, was applied to the
internal surface. This effect of
-NAD may be associated with the
production of ADP-R, because the
KCa-channel activity was increased
by ADP-R in a concentration-dependent manner. The open-state
probability of the KCa channels
increased from a control level of 0.08 ± 0.03 to 0.17 ± 0.05 even at the lowest ADP-R concentration (0.1 µM) studied. However,
cADP-R reduced the KCa-channel
activity, and the threshold concentration of cADP-R that decreased the
average channel activity of the
KCa channels was 1 µM. These
results provide evidence that cADP-R is produced and metabolized in the
coronary arterial smooth muscle and that a cADP-R/ADP-R pathway
participates in the control of the
KCa-channel activity in vascular
SMC.
