We examined the subcellular mechanisms involved in the opposing effects of NO on cardiac contraction and investigated whether NO modulates contraction exclusively via guanylyl cyclase (GC) activation or whether some contribution occurs via cGMP\/PKG-independent mechanisms, in indo 1\u2013loaded adult cardiac myocytes.

The negative contractile response of 100 \u03bcmol\/L SNAP was completely abolished in the presence of the specific blocker of PKG KT 5823 (1 \u03bcmol\/L); the positive contractile response of 1 \u03bcmol\/L SNAP persisted, despite the presence of the selective inhibitor of GC 1H-[1,2,4]oxadiazolo[4,3-a]quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ, 10 \u03bcmol\/L) alone, but was completely abolished in the presence of ODQ plus the specific inhibitory cAMP analog Rp-8-CPT-cAMPS (100 \u03bcmol\/L), as well as by the NO scavenger oxyhemoglobin. Parallel experiments in cell suspensions showed significant increases in adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity at low concentrations (0.1 to 1 \u03bcmol\/L) of SNAP (AC, 18% to 20% above basal activity). We conclude that NO can regulate both AC and GC in cardiac myocytes. High levels of NO induce large increases in cGMP and a negative inotropic effect mediated by a PKG-dependent reduction in myofilament responsiveness to Ca\n                    <jats:sup>2+<\/jats:sup>\n                    .
