1-integrins selectively alters
1- and
2-adrenoceptor signalling in cat atrial myocytes
-adrenergic receptor (
-AR) regulation of L-type Ca2+ current (ICa,L).
-AR agonist, elicited a greater stimulation of ICa,L in cells plated on laminin (+79 ± 16 %; n = 17) than on glass (+33 ± 5 %; n = 23). Also, desensitization to ISO was greater in cells on laminin (-16 ± 2 %) than on glass (-3 ± 1 %). Atenolol (0·1 µM), a selective
1-AR antagonist, inhibited the effects of ISO in cells on glass but not laminin. Conversely, 0·1 µM ICI 118,551, a selective
2-AR antagonist, inhibited the effects of ISO in cells on laminin but not glass. With
2-ARs blocked, ISO-induced stimulation of ICa,L was greater in cells on glass than laminin.
2-AR agonist, elicited a greater stimulation of ICa,L in cells on laminin than on glass. The effects of zinterol were blocked by ICI 118,551.

1-integrin antibody than on glass. Also, addition of 20 µM cytochalasin D to cells on laminin prevented the enhanced effects of ISO typically elicited in cells on laminin alone.

1-integrins, in conjunction with the actin cytoskeleton, reduces
1-AR and enhances
2-AR signalling which regulates ICa,L. This novel mechanism may contribute to remodelling of
-AR signalling in the failing heart.
