We have studied the effect of EMD 53998 (5-(1-(3,4-dimethoxybenzoyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrochinolin-6-yl)-6-me thyl-3,6-dihydro-2H-1,3,4-thiadiazin-2-one) on cross-bridge turnover rate at varying Ca2+ concentrations. Cross-bridge cycling rate was estimated both by adenosine triphosphatase measurements and determination of mechanical characteristics of constantly activated fibres, which is assumed to reflect cross-bridge kinetics. The results indicate that the turnover rate of myocardial cross-bridges was reduced in the presence of EMD 53998 at low Ca2+ concentrations (pCa greater than or equal to 6.25), but not at higher Ca2+ concentrations (pCa less than or equal to 5.85).

The inotropic state of the myocardium can be enhanced via an increase in cell Ca2+ loading or in myofilament responsiveness to Ca2+. Although different pharmacological agents combine these properties, no presently available drug acts predominantly as a myofilament sensitizer in situ. We have investigated the effects and the mechanism of action of novel diazinone derivatives, EMD 54622, EMD 53998, and EMD 54650 (developed by E. Merck, Darmstadt), on guinea pig myocardial preparations. Force- and ATPase-pCa relations in skinned fibers show differing potencies of these agents on myofilament sensitization: EMD 54622 greater than EMD 53998 much greater than EMD 54650. This is in contrast to their relative potencies to inhibit isolated myocardial phosphodiesterase III: EMD 54650 greater than EMD 53998 greater than EMD 54622. In isolated hearts studied at constant coronary flow, each of the three diazinone derivatives had a positive inotropic effect. In enzymatically dissociated left ventricular myocytes loaded with the Ca2+ probe indo-1, the positive inotropic effect of EMD 54622 occurred with no change in the amplitude of the cytosolic [Ca2+] (Cai) transient. In contrast, both EMD 53998 and EMD 54650 enhanced Cai transient and twitch contraction amplitudes. Length-indo-1 fluorescence relations were analyzed to determine the effects of the three substances on myofilament responsiveness to Ca2+. EMD 54622 enhanced and EMD 54650 had no effect on myofilament responsiveness to Ca2+. Less uniform results were obtained with EMD 53998 (in two of five cells the myofilament responsiveness to Ca2+ was increased, whereas in three other cells it was unaltered). Our results indicate that structural changes in the diazinone molecule shift the mechanism of action for the positive inotropic effect of the diazinone derivatives in the intact cell from a predominant myofilament sensitization (EMD 54622) to an enhancement in cell Ca2+ loading and an augmentation in the Cai transient (EMD 54650).

EMD 53 998, a novel thiadiazinone derivative, increases the contractile force of cardiac tissue in vitro through both an inhibition of phosphodiesterase III (PDE III) and a sensitization of cardiac contractile proteins to Ca2+. Guinea pig ventricular PDE III is selectively inhibited by EMD 53 998 (IC50 = 60 nM) without major effects on other PDE isoenzymes. Consonant with this is an increase in cAMP content of rat ventricular cells and a potentiation by EMD 53 998 of the cAMP-elevating action of isoprenaline (increase by 50% at 1.3 microM). Sensitization to Ca2+ by EMD 53 998 (3-30 microM) finds its expression in a leftward shift of the Ca2+ response curve for force generation in skinned fibers from porcine ventricular muscle and failing human heart as well as for activation of bovine cardiac myofibrillar actomyosin ATPase. Interestingly, EMD 53 998 elevates the maximum of the Ca(2+)-response curve for both parameters. Pimobendan studied under identical conditions was 100 times less potent than EMD 53 998. EMD 53 998 increases force development of guinea pig papillary muscle in a concentration-dependent manner with an EC50 of 3.6 microM, thus being 10 times more potent than pimobendan. In contrast to pimobendan, the positive inotropic effect of EMD 53 998 is barely affected by carbachol. Further evidence for a Ca(2+)-sensitizing effect of EMD 53 998 is provided by an additional increase in force generation in the presence of supramaximal isoprenaline concentrations. It is concluded that the positive inotropic action of EMD 53 998 is mediated through both cAMP-independent and cAMP-dependent mechanisms, with the former probably prevailing. We are not aware of other compounds with a similarly high Ca(2+)-sensitizing potency. On these grounds. EMD 53 998 appears to be a promising inotropic agent.

The role of structural features of sulmazole, an imidazo(4,5-b)pyridine, in its inotropic action was examined by comparison with its reduced (4-methylthiophenyl) analog EMD 46512 and the corresponding imidazo(4,5-c)pyridine isomers isomazole and EMD 41000 on isolated guinea-pig papillary muscles and right atria and on Na,K-ATPase and phosphodiesterase III isolated from guinea-pig hearts. The pyridine nitrogen position in sulmazole was crucial for affinity to Na,K-ATPase (IC50 = 350 microM) because the imidazo(4,5-c)pyridines had little effect. Participation of Na,K-ATPase inhibition in sulmazole's inotropic effect (EC50 = 180 microM) was suggested by synergism with the Na channel activator germitrine. The methylsulfinyl oxygen at the phenyl ring decreased the affinity to Na,K-ATPase of sulmazole 40-fold: The reduced analog EMD 46512 was a potent inhibitor of Na,K-ATPase (IC50 = 8.5 microM) and a more potent inotropic agent (EC50 = 8.2 microM) that appeared to act predominantly through Na,K-ATPase inhibition. Micromolar through Na,K-ATPase inhibition. Micromolar IC50s for inhibition of phosphodiesterase III were 49 (sulmazole), 34 (EMD 46512), 18 (isomazole), and 13 (EMD 41000). Participation of this mechanism in the inotropic effect of sulmazole, isomazole, and EMD 41000, but not EMD 46512, was indicated by augmentation of slow action potentials, synergism with histamine, inhibition by carbachol, and (with the exception of EMD 41000) a positive chronotropic effect on the right atrium. Sulmazole appeared to combine the actions of its 4-methylthiophenyl analog EMD 46512 (an inhibitor of Na,K-ATPase) and of its imidazo(4,5-c)pyridine isomer isomazole (an inhibitor of phosphodiesterase III).

The novel cardiotonic EMD 53,998 increases contractile force in vitro through both inhibition of phosphodiesterase III (PDE III) activity and increase in the responsiveness of the contractile proteins to calcium ("calcium sensitization"). Because EMD 53,998 is a racemate, the possibility arose that the two modes of action do not reside equally in the enantiomers. Therefore, the effects of the racemate and its two enantiomers [(+)EMD 57,033 and (-)EMD 57,439] were analyzed in guinea pig and rat cardiac tissue with respect to Ca2+ sensitization (Ca(2+)-induced force development in skinned cardiac myofibers and myofibrillar ATPase activity) and PDE III inhibition (isolated PDE isoenzymes and cyclic AMP level in isolated cardiac myocytes). In addition, the positive inotropic effects were compared in isometrically contracting papillary muscles. Enhancement of force of contraction (Fc) in submaximally activated skinned fibers showed a selectivity for the (+)enantiomer with EC50 = 1.7, 4.8, and > 100 microM for EMD 57,033, EMD 53,998, and EMD 57,439, respectively. Ca2+ concentration for half-maximal activation was decreased by 0.5 log units, and Cmax was increased by 15% at 10 microM EMD 57,033. Similarly, myofibrillar ATPase activity was most potently enhanced by the (+)enantiomer, with EC50 values of 1.8, 2.5, and > 30 microM for EMD 57,033, EMD 53,998, and EMD 57,439, respectively. PDE III activity was inhibited with greater potency by the (-)enantiomer, with IC50 values of 0.05, 0.06, and 1.94 microM for EMD 57,439, EMD 53,998, and EMD 57,033, respectively. The cyclic AMP content of isoprenaline-stimulated rat cardiac myocytes was increased by 50% at 13.6 and 0.71 microM for EMD 57,033 and EMD 57,439, respectively. In intact guinea pig papillary muscle, the positive inotropic effect of the (+)enantiomer was insensitive to isoprenaline pretreatment; in contrast, the (-)enantiomer showed only a weak positive inotropic action which was strongly enhanced in the presence of isoprenaline. We conclude that one of the two different mechanisms underlying the overall positive inotropic activity of EMD 53,998 can be assigned, almost exclusively, to one of the two enantiomers. Thus, the (-)enantiomer EMD 57,439 is a "pure" PDE III inhibitor with almost no Ca2+ sensitizing activity; the (+)enantiomer EMD 57,033 is a potent Ca2+ sensitizer with only a weak PDE III inhibitory activity as compared with the racemate. In contrast to other compounds with mixed activity, EMD 57,033 is unique in possessing both a high absolute potency at the level of the contractile elements and a favorable relation of Ca2+ sensitization to PDE inhibition.

Certain peptide drugs, such as the linear hydrophobic renin-inhibitor EMD 51921, are rapidly eliminated via the bile. At the sinosoidal membrane of liver cells EMD 51921 is taken up via a sodium-independent carrier-mediated mechanism, competing for the uptake of bile acids. Until now, the mechanisms of biliary excretion of EMD 51921 were unknown. In this study we describe an ATP-dependent transport system for the enzymatically and metabolically stable hydrophobic linear renin-inhibiting peptide EMD 51921. The ATP-dependent uptake into the osmotic reactive intravesicular space is saturable (Km 12 microM, Vmax 663 pmol/min per mg protein), temperature dependent and specifically requires ATP. Transport is inhibited by vanadate but not by ouabain, EGTA or NaN3, and does not function in basolateral plasma membrane vesicles. Transport is not altered in canalicular membrane vesicles isolated from Tr- rats lacking the canalicular ATP-dependent transport of cysteinyl leukotrienes and related anions. Transport is inhibited by taurocholate, a typical substrate of the canalicular ATP-dependent bile acid transporter, but also by vincristine and daunomycin, substrates of P-glycoproteins. EMD 51921, however, only inhibits the uptake of taurocholate, whereas the transport of daunomycin is not influenced. Taurocholate and EMD 51921 are mutually non- or un-competitive transport inhibitors. Incubation of rat liver canalicular membranes with micromolar concentrations of EMD 51921 resulted in a 1.8-2.5-fold increase in the rate of ATP-hydrolysis. In contrast, ATP-hydrolysis was not affected by fragments of the peptide that are not transported in an ATP-dependent manner. The apparent Km value (EMD) for ATP-hydrolysis is 68 microM. Vmax is 0.032 U/mg protein. ATPase activity is pH dependent. Stimulation of ATP-hydrolysis is inhibited by vanadate, NEM, hydroxymercuribenzoate and ascorbate, but is not affected by ouabain, EGTA or NaN3. EMD 51921 does not stimulate the ATPase activity of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase isolated from kidney medulla. The EMD-stimulatable ATPase seems to be distinct from the glutathione-S-conjugate stimulatable ATPase and the mdr 1a/b gene products and differs in its characteristics from that of the canalicular ecto-ATPase.

We have investigated whether a Ca(2+)-sensitizing substance, the thiadiazinone derivative EMD 53998, can alter the ratio of ATPase activity to force, i.e. the tension cost in skinned fibres of swine cardiac trabecula in which the tension cost was increased by inorganic phosphate. In the presence of 10 mM inorganic phosphate (Pi) and thapsigargin 20 microM, EMD 53998 reduced the energy cost of isometric tension over the entire range of activating Ca2+ concentrations, resulting in a consistent change in slope (approximately 20% decrease) of the ATPase/force relation. We confirmed that in the absence of added phosphate and at maximal Ca2+ activation EMD 53998 had little if any effect on tension cost. We had previously reported that the effects of EMD 53998 and Pi on calcium sensitivity and maximum isometric tension are mutually antagonistic and our new energy data now support the proposal that EMD 53998 functionally antagonizes the effects of Pi on crossbridges. The decrease in the slope of the relation between ATPase and force caused by EMD 53998 may be interpreted to reflect either a decrease in the rate of 'detachment' (g(app)) of crossbridges or an increase in average force per crossbridge, as predicted by classical crossbridge models. Since the Pi release step of the crossbridge cycle is associated with the rate of 'attachment' (f(app)) rather than g(app), we conclude that the decrease in tension cost with EMD 53998 most likely reflects an increased force per crossbridge.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Thiadiazinones are cardiotonic agents that have potent, direct, and stereoselective actions on the myofilament response to Ca2+ in intact myocardium. Their mechanism of action is unknown. We studied the effects of racemic thiadiazinone, EMD 53998 (5-[1-(3,4-dimethoxybenzoyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-quinolyl]-6-meth yl-3,6- dihydro-2H-1,3,4-thiadiazin-2-one), and its enantiomers on Ca2+ signaling in myocytes, myofilaments, and myofilament proteins. Intact canine ventricular myocytes responded to the positive enantiomer, EMD 57033, with an increase in the extent of shortening during twitch contractions without increasing the peak amplitude of the Ca2+ transient. The negative enantiomer, EMD 57439, also increased the extent of shortening, but in this case there was a concentration-dependent increase in the peak amplitude of the Ca2+ transient. This is predicted from in vitro data showing that this enantiomer is a relatively potent inhibitor of phosphodiesterase activity. There was no effect of EMD 57439 on the relation between pCa and actomyosin Mg-ATPase activity of canine heart myofibrils. In contrast, EMD 57033 shifted the pCa-Mg-ATPase activity relation to the left. There was no effect of either enantiomer on Ca2+ binding to myofilament troponin C. Moreover EMD 57033, but not EMD 57439, stimulated actomyosin ATPase activity of myofilament preparations in which either troponin or troponin-tropomyosin had been extracted. EMD 57033 had no effect on Mg-ATPase activity of pure ventricular myosin. EMD 57033 also stimulated the velocity of actin filament sliding on myosin heads adhered to nitrocellulose-coated glass coverslips. We propose that the action of EMD 57033 is at the actin-myosin interface on a "receptor" that may be on actin or the crossbridge. Drug binding to this domain appears to reverse the inhibition of actin-myosin interactions by troponin-tropomyosin and also to promote transition of crossbridges from weak to strong force-generating states.

Previously, we showed, in an in situ porcine model, that the thiadiazinone derivative [+]EMD 60263, a putative Ca2+ sensitizer with minimal phosphodiesterase III inhibitory properties, increased contractility more profoundly in stunned than in nonstunned myocardium. The aim of the present investigation was to study the mechanism of action by determining the in vitro effects of [+]EMD 60263 on the Ca2+ responsiveness of the Mg(2+)-dependent ATPases of myofibrils and sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane vesicles, isolated from normal ventricle of swine and hypertrophic septum of cardiomyopathic patients. Contamination of the myofibrils with sarcoplasmic reticulum membranes was excluded by testing the effect of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-pumping ATPase inhibitor thapsigargin. The plasma concentrations at which [+]EMD 60263 exerted its inotropic effect in the in situ porcine model were found to be submicromolar. [+]EMD 60263 stimulated concentration-dependently (1-10 microM) the submaximally activated Mg(2+)-ATPases (at pCa 6.1) of pig heart myofibrils. [+]EMD 60263 (10 microM) shifted the pCa50 of porcine myofibrillar Ca(2+)-stimulated, Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase from 6.00 +/- 0.05 to 6.67 +/- 0.05, whereas the [-]enantiomer EMD 60264 had no significant effect. Although the effect was much less at 1 and 3 microM, [+]EMD 60263 (10 microM) also stimulated maximal myofibrillar Mg(2+)-ATPase activity. The Hill coefficient, reflecting the steepness of the fitted pCa/Mg(2+)-ATPase curve at half-maximal activation, was not affected by [+]EMD 60263 (10 microM). [+]EMD 60263 (10 microM) had no effect on sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-stimulated, Mg(2+)-dependent ATPase from swine heart. The thiadiazinone derivative [+]EMD 57033 (10 microM), but not its [-]enantiomer EMD 57439, had similar, although less potent, effects on pig heart myofibrillar Mg(2+)-ATPase activity as compared to [+]EMD 60263. [+]EMD 60263 (3 microM) produced a significantly larger leftward shift of the pCa2+/Mg(2+)-ATPase activity curve of myofibrils isolated from the stunned compared to the adjacent nonstunned myocardium (Delta pCa50s caused by the presence of [+]EMD 60263 amounted to +0.57 +/- 0.04 and +0.42 +/- 0.05, respectively) in the in situ porcine model. The effects of [+]EMD 60263 on myofibrillar Mg(2+)-ATPase of hypertrophic human heart were identical to those observed with porcine heart myofibrils. The results indicate that the positive inotropic action of [+]EMD 60263 observed in the in situ porcine model of stunned myocardium may be primarily due to myofilament sensitization to Ca2+, and that this compound may have a similar action on diseased human myocardium.

The effects of 2,3-butanedione monoxime (BDM) and 5-[1-(3,4-dimethoxybenzoyl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-6-quinolyl]-6-me thy l-3,6-dihydro-2H-1,3,4-thiadiazin-2-one (EMD 53998) on cardiac muscle were studied in skinned muscle fibres from the right ventricle of the porcine heart. BDM decreases the Ca2+ sensitivity (pCa50 for 50% activation) and it exerts a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on force in troponin I (TnI)-depleted (unregulated) cardiac skinned muscle fibres (IC50 approximately 20 mM) thereby mimicking the effect of the TnI inhibitory peptide (cTnI 137-148, corresponding to the cardiac TnI inhibitory region) and that of inorganic phosphate (Pi). This inhibitory action can be antagonized by the calcium-sensitizing cardiotonic thiadiazinone derivative EMD 53998 that increases the IC50 to about 30 mM. In skinned fibres, BDM (10 mM) also increased the ratio of ATPase activity to isometric force (tension cost), whereas EMD 53998 (20 mu M) decreased it. We propose that BDM antagonizes EMD 53998 because both compounds affect the Pi release step of the crossbridge cycle in an antagonistic manner.
