The mechanism of doxorubicin-induced Ca2+ release from skeletal and cardiac muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was studied by examining the effects of azumolene (a water soluble dantrolene analog) on doxorubicin-mediated Ca2+ release and ryanodine binding. Doxorubicin induced a rapid Ca2+ release from both skeletal and cardiac SR in a similar concentration range (EC50 = 5-10 microM). Maximal doxorubicin-induced Ca2+ release was seen at 2 and 0.2 microM Ca2+ for skeletal and cardiac SR, respectively. Addition of 400 microM azumolene caused approx. 30% inhibition of doxorubicin-induced Ca2+ release from both skeletal and cardiac SR; skeletal SR had significantly higher sensitivity to azumolene than cardiac SR. In the presence of Ca2+, doxorubicin increased [3H]ryanodine binding to both skeletal and cardiac SR; whereas in the absence of Ca2+, doxorubicin led to significant ryanodine binding to skeletal SR, but not to cardiac SR. In both types of SR, doxorubicin-activated, but not Ca2+ activated ryanodine binding was inhibited by azumolene. Azumolene sensitivity for inhibition of doxorubicin-activated ryanodine binding was much higher in skeletal SR than cardiac SR, consistent with the results for effects of azumolene on Ca2+ release. Our results are consistent with the possibility that azumolene inhibits doxorubicin binding by direct competition for the drug receptor(s).
