Alpha1-adrenoceptor (alpha1-AR) stimulation increases sarcolemmal Na+-H+ exchanger (NHE) activity. The present study was designed to determine the role(s) of alpha1-AR subtype(s) in mediating this response. As an index of NHE activity, acid efflux rates (JHs) were determined in single rat ventricular myocytes loaded with the pH-sensitive fluoroprobe carboxy-seminaphthorhodafluor-1 after 2 consecutive intracellular acid pulses in bicarbonate-free medium. JH at pHi 6.90 did not change significantly during the second pulse relative to the first in control cells but increased in a dose-dependent manner when the second pulse occurred in the presence of phenylephrine (nonselective alpha1-AR agonist) or A61603 (alpha1A-AR-selective agonist), with EC50 values of 1.24 micromol/L and 3.6 nmol/L, respectively (both agonists given together with 1 micromol/L atenolol). Stimulation of NHE activity by 10 micromol/L phenylephrine was inhibited in a dose-dependent manner by the competitive antagonists prazosin, WB4101, and 5-methylurapidil, with IC50 values of 12, 32, and 149 nmol/L, respectively. Analyses of the relative EC50 and IC50 values obtained (and Ki values estimated from the antagonist IC50s) in relation to the relative potencies of these agents at native rat alpha1-AR subtypes and their relative affinities for recombinant rat alpha1-ARs suggest that alpha1-adrenergic stimulation of sarcolemmal NHE activity is likely to be mediated selectively by the alpha1A-AR.
