Adequate oxygen delivery to the heart during stress is essential for sustaining cardiac function. Acute increases in myocardial oxygen demand evoke coronary vasodilation and enhance perfusion via functional upregulation of smooth muscle voltage-gated K+ (Kv) channels. Because this response is controlled by Kv1 accessory subunits (i.e., Kvβ), which are NAD(P)(H)-dependent aldo-keto reductases, we tested the hypothesis that oxygen demand modifies arterial [NAD(H)]i, and that resultant cytosolic pyridine nucleotide redox state influences Kv1 activity. High-resolution imaging mass spectrometry and live-cell imaging reveal cardiac workload-dependent increases in NADH:NAD+ in intramyocardial arterial myocytes. Intracellular NAD(P)(H) redox ratios reflecting elevated oxygen demand potentiate native coronary Kv1 activity in a Kvβ2-dependent manner. Ablation of Kvβ2 catalysis suppresses redox-dependent increases in Kv1 activity, vasodilation, and the relationship between cardiac workload and myocardial blood flow. Collectively, this work suggests that the pyridine nucleotide sensitivity and enzymatic activity of Kvβ2 controls coronary vasoreactivity and myocardial blood flow during metabolic stress.
