Activation time of myocardial oxidative phosphorylation in creatine kinase and adenylate kinase knockout mice

Our goal was to determine whether mice genetically altered to lack either creatine kinase (M/MtCK-/-) or adenylate kinase (AK-/-) show altered properties in the dynamic regulation of myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2). We measured contractile function, oxygen consumption, and the mean response time of oxygen consumption to a step increase in heart rate [i.e., mitochondrial response time (tmito)] in isolated Langendorff-perfused hearts from wild-type (n = 6), M/MtCK-/- (n = 6), and AK-/- (n = 4) mice. Left ventricular developed pressure was higher in M/MtCK-/- hearts (88.2 ± 6.8 mmHg) and lower in AK-/- hearts (46.7 ± 9.4 mmHg) compared with wild-type hearts (60.7 ± 10.1 mmHg) at the basal pacing rate. Developed pressure fell slightly when heart rate was increased in all three groups. Basal MVO2 at 300 beats/min was 19.1 ± 2.4, 19.4 ± 1.5, and 16.3 ± 1.9 µmol · min-1 · g dry wt-1 for M/MtCK-/-, AK-/-, and wild type, respectively, which increased to 25.5 ± 3.7, 25.4 ± 2.6, and 22.0 ± 2.6 µmol · min-1 · g-1, when heart rate was increased to 400 beats/min. The tmito was significantly faster in M/MtCK-/- hearts: 3.0 ± 0.3 versus 7.3 ± 0.6 and 8.0 ± 0.4 s for M/MtCK-/-, AK-/-, and wild-type hearts, respectively. Our results demonstrate that MVO2 of M/MtCK-/- hearts adapts more quickly to an increase in heart rate and thereby support the hypothesis that creatine kinase acts as an energy buffer in the cytosol, which delays the energy-related signal between sites of ATP hydrolysis and mitochondria.
