Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a highly arrhythmogenic syndrome triggered by stress, primarily linked to gain-of-function point mutations in the cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2). Flecainide, as an effective therapy for CPVT, is a known blocker of the surface-membrane Na+ channel, also affecting the intracellular RyR2 channel. The therapeutic relevance of the flecainide-RyR2 interaction remains controversial, as flecainide blocks only the RyR2 current flowing in the opposite direction to the physiological Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). However, it has been proposed that charge-compensating countercurrent from the cytosol to SR lumen plays a critical role, and its reduction may indeed suppress excessive diastolic SR Ca2+ release through RyR2 channels in CPVT. Monitoring single-channel properties, we examined whether flecainide can target intracellular pathways for charge-balancing currents carried by RyR2 and SR Cl- channels under cell-like conditions. Particularly, the Tris+ countercurrent flowed through the RyR2 channel simultaneously with a dominant reverse Ca2+/Ba2+ current. We demonstrate that flecainide blocked the RyR2-mediated countercurrent without affecting channel activity. In contrast, the SR Cl- channel was completely resistant to flecainide. Based on these findings, it is reasonable to propose that the primary intracellular target of flecainide in vivo is the RyR2-mediated countercurrent.
