Pharmacological profile of the selective mitochondrial F1F0 ATP hydrolase inhibitor BMS-199264 in myocardial ischemia.
The mitochondrial F1F0 ATP synthase is responsible for the majority of ATP production in mammals and does this through a rotary catalytic mechanism. Studies show that the F1F0 ATP synthase can switch to an ATP hydrolase, and this occurs under conditions seen during myocardial ischemia. This ATP hydrolysis causes wasting of ATP that does not produce work. The degree of ATP inefficiently hydrolyzed during ischemia may be as high as 50-90% of the total. A naturally occurring, reversible inhibitor (IF-1) of the hydrolase activity is in the mitochondria, and it has a pH optimum of 6.8. Based on studies with the nonselective (inhibit both synthase and hydrolase activity) inhibitors aurovertin B and oligomycin B reduce the rate of ATP depletion during ischemia, showing that IF-1 does not completely block hydrolase activity. Oligomycin and aurovertin cannot be used for treating myocardial ischemia as they will reduce ATP production in healthy tissue. We generated a focused structure-activity relationship, and several compounds were identified that selectively inhibited the F1F0 ATP hydrolase activity while having no effect on synthase function. One compound, BMS-199264 had no effect on F1F0 ATP synthase function in submitochondrial particles while inhibiting hydrolase function, unlike oligomycin that inhibits both. BMS-199264 selectively inhibited ATP decline during ischemia while not affecting ATP production in normoxic and reperfused hearts. BMS-191264 also reduced cardiac necrosis and enhanced the recovery of contractile function following reperfusion. These data also suggest that the reversal of the synthase and hydrolase activities is not merely a chemical reaction run in reverse.
