Impaired excitation-contraction coupling in muscle fibres from the dynamin2 R465W mouse model of centronuclear myopathy

Résumé

Key points: Dynamin 2 is a ubiquitously expressed protein involved in membrane trafficking processes. Mutations in the gene encoding dynamin 2 are responsible for a congenital myopathy associated with centrally located nuclei in the muscle fibres. Using muscle fibres from a mouse model of the most common mutation responsible for this disease in humans, we tested whether altered Ca2+ signalling and excitation-contraction coupling contribute to muscle weakness. The plasma membrane network that carries the electrical excitation is moderately perturbed in the diseased muscle fibres. The excitation-activated Ca2+ input fluxes across both the plasma membrane and the membrane of the sarcoplasmic reticulum are defective in the diseased fibres, which probably contributes to muscle weakness in patients. Abstract: Mutations in the gene encoding dynamin 2 (DNM2) are responsible for autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (AD-CNM). We studied the functional properties of Ca2+ signalling and excitation-contraction (EC) coupling in muscle fibres isolated from a knock-in (KI) mouse model of the disease, using confocal imaging and the voltage clamp technique. The transverse-tubule network organization appeared to be unaltered in the diseased fibres, although its density was reduced by ∼10% compared to that in control fibres. The density of Ca2+ current through CaV1.1 channels and the rate of voltage-activated sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release were reduced by ∼60% and 30%, respectively, in KI vs. control fibres. In addition, Ca2+ release in the KI fibres reached its peak value 10-50 ms later than in control ones. Activation of Ca2+ transients along the longitudinal axis of the fibres was more heterogeneous in the KI than in the control fibres, with the difference being exacerbated at intermediate membrane voltages. KI fibres exhibited spontaneous Ca2+ release events that were almost absent from control fibres. Overall, the results of the present study demonstrate that Ca2+ signalling and EC coupling exhibit a number of dysfunctions likely contributing to muscle weakness in DNM2-related AD-CNM.
