Genistein Inhibits Cardiac L-Type Ca2+Channel Activity by a Tyrosine Kinase-Independent Mechanism

Abstract: It has been suggested that protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) activity can directly regulate cardiac L-type Ca 2ϩ channels. This conclusion is based to a large extent on the observation that the PTK inhibitor genistein can inhibit the cardiac L-type Ca 2ϩ current. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether the ability of genistein to inhibit cardiac L-type Ca 2ϩ channel activity is due to inhibition of PTK activity. Genistein significantly reduced the magnitude of the L-type Ca 2ϩ current in guinea p… Show more

“…4B). Although genistein is a potent PTK inhibitor and is the most frequently used PTK inhibitor, its specificity has raised concerns, because both PTK-dependent and -independent effects have been found (32,33). We verified the PTK dependency of I SP-O on GM DRG neurons by using an inactive structural analog of genistein, daidzein, which had no effect on I SP-O (Fig.…”

“…The current elicited during the test pulse was normalized to the magnitude of the current recorded during a pretest pulse to 0 mV, which preceded each conditioning pulse. This corrected for changes in current magnitude due to rundown (Belevych et al, 2002). **Significantly different when compared to the absence of PAO (Po0.01).…”

“…The voltage dependence of channel activation and inactivation was determined as described previously (Belevych et al, 2002). For these experiments, voltage-clamp protocols were repeated in the presence and absence of 100 mM CdCl 2 , and the L-type Ca 2 þ current was defined as the Cd 2 þ -sensitive difference current.…”
