beta-Adrenergic agonists induce protein kinase A (PKA) phosphorylation of the cardiac myofilament proteins myosin binding protein C (cMyBP-C) and troponin I (cTnI), resulting in enhanced systolic function, but the relative contributions of cMyBP-C and cTnI to augmented contractility are not known. To investigate possible roles of cMyBP-C in this response, we examined the effects of PKA treatment on the rate of force redevelopment and the stretch activation response in skinned ventricular myocardium from both wild-type (WT) and cMyBP-C null (cMyBP-C-/-) myocardium. In WT myocardium, PKA treatment accelerated the rate of force redevelopment and the stretch activation response, resulting in a shorter time to the peak of delayed force development when the muscle was stretched to a new isometric length. Ablation of cMyBP-C accelerated the rate of force redevelopment and stretch activation response to a degree similar to that observed in PKA treatment of WT myocardium; however, PKA treatment had no effect on the rate of force development and the stretch activation response in null myocardium. These results indicate that ablation of cMyBP-C and PKA treatment of WT myocardium have similar effects on cross-bridge cycling kinetics and suggest that PKA phosphorylation of cMyBP-C accelerates the rate of force generation and thereby contributes to the accelerated twitch kinetics observed in living myocardium during beta-adrenergic stimulation.
