Caveolae and Lipid Rafts: G Protein‐Coupled Receptor Signaling Microdomains in Cardiac Myocytes

Abstract: A growing body of data indicates that multiple signal transduction events in the heart occur via plasma membrane receptors located in signaling microdomains. Lipid rafts, enriched in cholesterol and sphingolipids, form one such microdomain along with a subset of lipid rafts, caveolae, enriched in the protein caveolin. In the heart, a key caveolin is caveolin-3, whose scaffolding domain is thought to serve as an anchor for other proteins. In spite of the original morphologic definition of caveolae ("little cave… Show more

“…Because it is well-recognized that G s ␣ has a multiplicity of effects in vivo (9,11,12,19,22), we tested whether G s ␣-Cav-3-independent mechanisms existed. Previous work on G protein and caveolin interactions has focused primarily on Cav-1; however, G s ␣ localization to Cav-3 has also been reported (11,12).…”

“…The first is the subsarcolemmal space associated with the caveolar membrane domains of the cell. The key signaling elements included in that compartment have been found in cholesterol-rich membrane fractions that are associated with caveolin 3, the muscle specific form of caveolin that is involved in creating signaling complexes necessary for producing functional responses (13,21,30). This compartment is assumed to include ϳ1% of the total cytosolic volume and 10% of the plasma membrane surface area (4).…”

“…However, the plasma membrane compartment of these cells is not homogeneous but rather divided into subcompartments, including caveolae and non-caveolar lipid rafts, which contain distinct sets of receptors and signaling proteins (Insel et al, 2005). To further characterize the membrane subcompartment where PDE4B is active, we determined whether PDE4B ablation affects the signaling of different G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).…”
