The present investigation tested the hypothesis that nitric oxide (NO) potentiates ATP-sensitive K+ (KATP) channels by protein kinase G (PKG)-dependent phosphorylation in rabbit ventricular myocytes using the patch clamp techniques. Sodium nitroprusside (SNP, 1 mM) potentiated KATP channel activity in cell-attached patches but failed to enhance the channel activity in either inside-out or outside-out patches. 8-(4-Chlorophenylthio)-guanosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate, Rp-isomer (Rp-CPT-cGMP, 100 µM) suppressed the potentiating effect of SNP. 8-(4-Chlorophenylthio)-guanosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (8-pCPT-cGMP, 100 µM) increased KATP channel activity in cell-attached patches. PKG (5 U/ml) added together with ATP and cGMP (100 µM each) directly to the intracellular surface increased the channel activity. Activation of KATP channels was abolished by replacing ATP with ATP{gamma}S. Rp-pCPT-cGMP (100 µM) inhibited the effect of PKG. The heat-inactivated PKG had little effect on the KATP channels. Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A, 1U/ml) reversed the PKG-mediated KATP channel activation. In the presence of okadaic acid (OA, 5 nM), a PP2A inhibitor, PP2A had no effect on the channel activity. These results suggest that NO/cGMP/PKG-pathway contributes to phosphorylation of KATP channels in rabbit ventricular myocytes.
