Brugada syndrome (BrS), which causes arrhythmias that lead to sudden cardiac death, is linked to loss-of-function mutations that affect sodium channels. Here, we investigate the rescue effect of alpha-allocryptopine (All) from Chinese herbal medicine in a T353I mutation of SCN5A, which combines trafficking abnormalities with Brugada syndrome. SCN5A-T353I expressed in HEK293 cells showed a small peak current (1(peak)) of only 59.6% of WT and an observably sustained current (I-sus). We found that All strongly enhanced the I-peak of the T353I channel by enhancing the plasma membrane (PM) expression of Nav1.5 and rescued defective trafficking after co-incubation with HEK293 cells that carry mutation channel 24 h. It is also beneficial to increase the I-peak of the T3531 mutation by All by prolonging the closed-state inactivation (CSI) process and shortening the recovery from inactivation of the T3531 mutation. Interestingly, the I-sus of T3531 was significantly inhibited by All, which reduces the occurrence of LQT syndrome 3 (LQT3). We provide evidence that All can rescue the trafficking deficiencies and restore the cellular electrophysiological characteristics of SCN5A-T353I. This feature of All may benefit patients with the BrS-associated Nav1.5 channel and might have other potential therapeutic effects. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
