Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The reliable assessment of proarrhythmic risk of compounds under development remains elusive. Current safety-guidelines focus on KCNH2/HERG blocking effects in tissues and animals with intact repolarization. Novel models with better predictive value are needed that reflect patients with cardiac remodelling and reduced repolarization reserve. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH: We created a rabbit model for long-QT syndrome type-5 (LQT5) with cardiac-specific overexpression of a mutant (G52R) KCNE1 beta-subunit of the slow delayed-rectifier K+ -channel (IKs ). ECG parameters, including short-term variability of the QT interval (STVQT ), a biomarker for proarrhythmic risk, and arrhythmia development were recorded. In vivo arrhythmia-susceptibility was evaluated by i.v. administration of the IKr blocker dofetilide. K+ currents were measured with the patch-clamp technique. KEY RESULTS: Patch-clamp studies in isolated ventricular myocytes revealed accelerated IKs and IKr deactivation-kinetics in LQT5 rabbits. At baseline, LQT5 animals exhibited slightly but significantly prolonged heart-rate corrected QT index (QTi) and increased STVQT . Dofetilide provoked Torsade-de-Pointes arrhythmia in a greater proportion of LQT5 rabbits, paralleled by a further increase in STVQT . CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS: We have created a novel transgenic LQT5 rabbit model with increased susceptibility to drug-induced arrhythmias that may represent a useful model for testing proarrhythmic potential and for investigations of mechanisms underlying arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death due to repolarization disturbances.
