title: Effect of nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate on ryanodine calcium release channel in heart.
abstract: Nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP), a molecule derived from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP+), is a recently identified nucleotide that activates Ca2+ release from intracellular stores in invertebrate eggs and in mammalian cells. NAADP could function as an intracellular messenger for mobilizing internal Ca2+ stores, however the targets and nature of NAADP-induced Ca2+ release are unknown. We report here that NAADP (3-10 microM) induces Ca2+ release from rat heart microsomes and that NAADP (1-10 microM) activates single ryanodine receptor/calcium release channels (RyR2) from dog heart incorporated into bilayer lipid membranes. The results indicate that NAADP may play a role in cardiac excitation-contraction coupling by acting on RyR2 channels.
