Abstract

The Ca(2+) mobilizing metabolite cyclic ADP-ribose has been shown to release Ca(2+) from intracellular ryanodine sensitive stores in many cells. However, the activation of the ryanodine receptor of skeletal muscle by cADP-ribose (cADPr) and its precursor and metabolite (beta-NAD(+) and ADPr) remains to be discussed. We studied the effect of ADPr on the Ca(2+) release channel of skeletal muscle RyR1 after incorporation of microsomes isolated from fast muscles of rat in planar lipid bilayers. We observed an increase in the electrophysiological activity of the channel after addition of ADPr (10 microM) at micromolar Ca(2+) concentrations, characterized by a time-lag. The increase in P(o) is mainly due to an increase in the open frequency. The long time course observed for the development of the ADPr effect may indicate that this activation induces a change in the conformation of the RyR1 channel, which increases its sensitivity to calcium.
