Hypersensitivity of Malignant Hyperthermia+usceptible Swine Skeletal Muscle to Caffeine Is Mediated by High Resting Myophsrnic 2+ Ka I Anesthesiology 2000; 92: 1799 - 806 Jose R. Lopez, M. D., Ph. D.,* Jaime Contreras, M. D., t Nancy Linares, B.S.,$ Paul D. Allen, M. D., Ph. D.5
Background: Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is an inherited pharmacogenetic syndrome that is triggered by halogenated anesthetics and/or depolarizing muscle relaxants. MH-susceptible (MHS) skeletal muscle has been shown to be more sensitive to caffeine-induced contracture than muscle from nonsusceptible
(MHN) subjects and is the basis for the most commonly used clinical diagnostic test to determine MH susceptibility.
Methods: We studied the effects of caffeine on myoplasmicfree calcium concentration ([Ca2+],) in MHN and MHS swine muscle fibers by means of Caz+-selective microelectrodes before and after K+-induced partial depolarization.
Results: [CaZC]i,n untreated MHN fibers was
When either MHN or MHS, muscle fibers were incubated in 10 mh! K+ [Ca*+], transiently increased to
m~ K+, [Ca2+]r, eturned to control levels in all fibers, and the effect of 2 m~ caffeine on resting [Ca'+], returned to control, despite continued partial membrane depolarization.
Conclusions: These results suggest that the increased "sensitivity'! to caffeine of MHS swine muscle fibers is a nonspecific response related, at least in part, to the high resting [Ca'+], and not an increased caffeine sensitivity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum CaZ+ release channel per se. (Key words: Hyperpyrexia; potassium xanthine.)
CELLULAR METABOLISM
Elevated resting [Ca2+]i in myotubes expressing malignant hyperthermia RyR1 cDNAs is partially restored by modulation of passive
calcium leak from the SR.

Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a pharmacogenetic disorder of skeletal
muscle triggered in susceptible individuals by inhalation anesthetics and
depolarizing skeletal muscle relaxants. This syndrome has been linked to a missense mutation in the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RyR1) in more than 50% of cases studied to date. Using double-barreled Ca2+ microelectrodes in myotubes
expressing wild-type RyR1 (WTRyR1) or RyR1 with one of four common MH mutations (MHRyR1), we measured resting intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i). Changes in resting [Ca2+]i produced by several drugs known to
modulate the RyR1 channel complex were investigated. We found that myotubes expressing any of the MH RyR1s had a 2.0- to 3.7-fold higher resting [Ca2+]i than those expressing WT RyR1. Exposure of myotubes expressing
MH RyR1s to ryanodine (500 μM) or (2,6-dichloro-4-aminophenyl)isopropylamine (FLA 365; 20 μM) had no effects on their resting [Ca2+]i. However, when myotubes were exposed to bastadin 5 alone or to a combination of ryanodine and bastadin 5,
the resting [Ca2+]i was significantly reduced (P <>

Enhanced response to caffeine and 4-chloro-m-cresol in malignant hyperthermia-susceptible muscle is related in part to chronically elevated resting [Ca2]i. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 288: C606–C612, 2005. First published November 10, 2004; doi:10.1152/ajpcell. 00297.2004.—Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a potentially fatal pharmacogenetic syndrome caused by exposure to halogenated volatile anesthetics and/or depolarizing muscle relaxants. We have measured intracellular Ca2 concentration ([Ca2]i) using double-barreled, Ca2-selective microelectrodes in myoballs prepared from skeletal muscle of MH-susceptible (MHS) and MH-nonsusceptible (MHN) swine. Resting [Ca2]i was approximately twofold in MHS compared with MHN quiescent myoballs (232 [1] 35 vs. 112 [1] 11nM). Treatment of myoballs with caffeine or 4-chloro-m-cresol (4-CmC) produced an elevation in [Ca2]i in both groups; however, the concentration required to cause a rise in [Ca2]i elevation was four times lower in MHS than in MHN skeletal muscle cells. Incubation of MHS cells with the fast-complexing Ca2 buffer BAPTA reduced [Ca2]i, raised the concentration of caffeine and 4-CmC required to cause an elevation of [Ca2]i, and reduced the amount of Ca2 release associated with exposure to any given concentration of caffeine or 4-CmC to MHN levels. These results suggest that the differences in the response of MHS skeletal myoballs to caffeine and 4-CmC may be mediated at least in part by the chronic high resting [Ca2]i levels inthese cells. calcium homeostasis; 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N,N-tetraacetic acid
