Background The Ca^<2+> regulatory proteins in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) play a key role in the pathogenesis of heart failure. In the present study the effect of chronic β-receptor-stimulation on cardiac and SR functions was assessed, with or without angiotensin-II receptor antagonist treatment recently reported to have anti-β-adren-ergic activity. Methods and Results Rats were treated with isoproterenol with (+) or without (-) candesartan (CAN) and then SR vesicles were isolated from the left ventricular muscle. Both Ca^<2+>-uptake and the amount of SR Ca^<2+>-ATPase were significantly lower in the CAN (-) group than in the shams, but those were almost normally restored in the CAN (+). Although the level of the protein kinase A (PKA)-phosphorylation of the SR Ca^<2+> release channel, known as the ryanodine receptor (RyR2), was elevated in the CAN (-), no Ca^<2+>-leak was detected. However, SIN-1 (O2^- donor) induced Ca^<2+>-leak in the CAN (-) at a 10-fold lower dose than in the sham and CAN (+). In cardiomyocytes, SIN-1 decreased cell shortening and the peak Ca^<2+> transient and prolonged time from peak to 70% decline in CAN (-), again at 10-fold lower dose than in the sham and CAN (+). Conclusion Chronic β-receptor-stimulation did not induce any Ca^<2+>-leak from the SR, whereas Ca^<2+>-leak was easily induced when oxidative stress was applied to the PKA-phosphorylated RyR2. Candesartan not only improved Ca^<2+>-uptake, but also prevented PKA-phosphorylation, rendering the SR less susceptible to Ca^<2+>-leak.
