Control por fosfodiesterasas de la función cardíaca activada por los receptores acoplados a la proteína GsGalindo Tovar, Alejandro 15 October 2009 (has links)
Los receptores β-adrenérgicos (βAR) y de serotonina (5-HT4) median sus efectos en tejidos cardiacos a través de la ruta receptor-Gs-AC-AMPc. Las fosfodiesterasas (PDE) son una amplia familia de enzimas cuya función es la degradación del AMPc. Se desconocía que isoenzimas de PDEs son responsables de la hidrólisis de AMPc en las diferentes regiones cardiacas. El objetivo de esta tesis doctoral es investigar que isoenzimas de PDEs tienen actividad en el miocardio humano, porcino y de roedores. Se han realizado estudios cronotrópicos, inotrópicos, lusitrópicos, bioquímicos y electrofisiológicos. Los principales resultados son: Las PDEs se comportan de manera distinta en las diferentes regiones cardiacas y compartimentos celulares; y La frecuencia basal de nódulo sinusal está controlada por PDEs pero en ninguna especie estudiada las PDEs controlan la taquicardia causada por los βARs y los receptores 5-HT4. La extrapolación de la función de las PDEs al humano debe h acerse con cautela. / Myocardial β-adrenoceptors (βAR) and serotonin receptors (5-HT4) mediate their signals through the receptor-Gs-AC-cAMP pathway. Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are a large enzyme family that degrade cAMP. It was unknown which PDE isoenzymes are responsible for the hydrolysis of the cAMP in different cardiac regions. The aim of this doctoral thesis is to investigate which isoenzymes have a role in human, porcine and rodent myocardium. We performed chronotropic, inotropic, lusitropic, biochemical and electrophysiological studies. The key results are: PDEs have different roles in different cardiac regions and cellular compartments; and the basal beating rate of the sinoatrial node is controlled by PDE3 and/or PDE4, but these PDEs do not limit the tachycardia mediated through the stimulation of β1AR, β2AR and 5-HT4. Given the diverse roles of PDE3 and PDE4 and their dependence on species, extrapolation to humans should be done cautiously because these animal models usually do not reflect the human myocardium.
