During myocardial ischemia, a local release of noradrenaline coincides with an increased density of ß-adrenergic receptors. The functional activity of these receptors, however, is mainly determined by their state of phosphorylation. The ß-adrenergic receptor kinase (ßARK) specifically phosphorylates and thereby inactivates ß-adrenergic receptors after stimulation by receptor agonists, facilitating the binding of the inhibitor protein ß-arrestin to the receptors. ßARK activation involves a translocation of the enzyme to the membrane. In the present study, we investigated the density and the functional activity of ß-adrenergic receptors, the enzymatic activity of ßARK in membranes and cytosol, the mRNA levels of ßARK-1, and the expression of ß-arrestin during stop-flow and low-flow ischemia in the isolated perfused rat heart. After 60 minutes of stop-flow ischemia, ß-adrenergic receptor density was upregulated, but ß-agonistmediated adenylate cyclase activity was blunted. Simultaneously, ßARK activity in the particulate fraction was significantly induced. The increase in ßARK activity was reversible after inhibition of ischemia-evoked noradrenaline release by desipramine. Also, exposure to externally given noradrenaline increased ßARK activity in the particulate fraction. Cytosolic ßARK activity remained largely unchanged during stop-flow or low-flow ischemia. The steady state concentration of ßARK-1 mRNA increased after 20 minutes of stop-flow ischemia and then returned to baseline values after another 20 minutes. Cardiac ischemia did not alter ß-arrestin levels. During myocardial ischemia, an increase in the number of ß-adrenergic receptors is paralleled by increased membrane activity of the receptor kinase ßARK. This increased membrane activity may contribute to enhanced receptor phosphorylation and inactivation.
