In this study, we examined the relationships between [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAPNS1 CAPNS1] troponin I phosphorylation and Ca2+ regulation of contractility in single myofibrils from a mouse model of familial DCM (ACTC E361G) in comparison with wild-type mice. We measured the effects of changing the [Ca2+], troponin I phosphorylation level, and sarcomere length (SL) on the isometric tension and relaxation rate after rapid Ca2+ jumps. Recent studies have shown that Ca2+ sensitivity decreased 2- to 3-fold between 0% and ?70% bisphosphorylation of troponin I and did not change at higher levels of phosphorylation (18?and?21). Since native mouse and human donor heart preparations have phosphorylation levels in the 50�C70% range (22), the major effects of phosphorylation would be observed if phosphorylation levels were reduced rather than increased above normal, which is the more usual experimental situation (23). Therefore, we used propranolol treatment of mice to reduce the level of troponin I and MyBP-C phosphorylation in their hearts before isolating the myofibrils. Our results confirm that phosphorylation specifically alters the Ca2+ sensitivity of isometric tension and the time course of relaxation in wild-type myofibrils. Moreover, [http://www.selleckchem.com/products/bmn-673.html Talazoparib in vivo] the DCM-causing mutation ACTC E361G blunts this phosphorylation-dependent response, as predicted by the in?vitro motility studies, without affecting other parameters of contraction, including length-dependent activation (LDA) and the response to the Ca2+ sensitizer EMD57033. We used heart muscle from heterozygous ACTC E361G transgenic mice (previously described by Song et?al. ( 24)) and nontransgenic (NTG) mice (hybrid strain C57Bl/6xCBA/Ca) as controls (male and female, 4�C28?weeks old). Experiments and animal handling were done in accordance with the guidelines of the Imperial College London. Mice were killed by cervical dislocation as required by Schedule I of the UK Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986. Mice were anesthetized with 5% isoflurane (IsoFlo, Abbott [http://www.selleckchem.com/products/s-gsk1349572.html Dolutegravir concentration] Laboratories, Berkshire, UK) v/v in 100% oxygen (0.5mL/min), weighed, and then transferred to a heated surgical table (VetTech, UK) where anesthesia was maintained at 2.5% isoflurane v/v in 100% O2 (0.5?mL/min) using a custom-made nose cone. A bolus of propranolol (8?mg/kg BW; Sigma-Aldrich, Poole, UK) was injected into the subclavian vein. The mice were kept in an anesthesia induction chamber for 30?min with 1.5% isoflurane and then sacrificed. The heart was removed and tissue samples (
