Abstract Specific [125I-Tyr8]bradykinin (BK) binding was observed on myocardial membranes from adult guinea pigs, dogs, rats, and rabbits that was displaced by unlabeled BK with an IC50 between 0.1 and 30 nmol/L. In the adult guinea pig ventricular myocardium, which displays both high- and low-affinity binding, guanosine 5'-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP{gamma}S; 100 µmol/L) eliminated high-affinity binding and reduced total specific [2,3-prolyl-3,4-3H(N)]BK ([3H]BK) binding by >60%. Agonist competition binding to rat myocardial membranes was characterized as being of one affinity for BK in the nanomolar range, and it was not altered by GTP{gamma}S. Saturation binding studies with [125I-Tyr8]BK and [3H]BK, performed on cultured neonatal rat cardiac myocytes, revealed a single class of BK binding sites with a Kd and Bmax of 0.24±0.04 nmol/L and 18.4±1.1 fmol/mg protein, respectively ({approx}1500 receptors per cell). In competitive binding assays, unlabeled BK, Hoe 140 (a specific BK B2 receptor antagonist), and des-Arg9,[Leu8]BK (a BK B1 receptor antagonist) displaced [125I-Tyr8]BK with an IC50 of 4.3, 0.041, and 307 nmol/L, respectively. In the presence of 100 µmol/L GTP{gamma}S, [3H]BK binding to myocyte membranes was reduced by 40%, but the IC50 did not change. Cardiac fibroblasts, evaluated in parallel to the myocytes, contain a single class of [3H]BK binding sites (248±72 fmol/mg) with a 130-fold lower relative affinity (32.4±11.3 nmol/L) than that determined in rat cardiomyocytes. BK stimulated the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) production by cardiomyocytes, which reached a maximum after 20 seconds of stimulation and increased from a baseline of 138.4±23.2 pmol/mg protein to 1020.7±75.9 pmol/mg with 1 µmol/L BK (EC50=15.3 nmol/L). The effect was significantly blocked by 1 µmol/L Hoe 140. The IP3 response by cardiomyocytes was fourfold greater and sixfold more sensitive than that by cardiac fibroblasts (EC50=92.3 nmol/L). These data suggest the presence of high-affinity BK B2 receptors on cardiomyocytes, which are functionally coupled via a G protein to the production of IP3.
