N2 - OBJECTIVE: Increased levels of inhibitory G proteins have been observed in heart failure, but their physiological relevance in mediating the reduced beta-adrenergic response is largely unknown. METHODS: To evaluate the functional consequences of Galpha(i2) overexpression, we studied myocardial contraction in intact isometric contracting cardiac rabbit trabeculae and isolated myocytes after adenovirus-mediated gene transfer of Galpha(i2). RESULTS: Neither Galpha(i2) nor lacZ (control) overexpression altered baseline contractile force. After 72 h of continuous contractions, developed force (F(dev)) increased after addition of 1 microM isoproterenol by 28.5+/-9.7 mN/mm(2) in the control group, which was unchanged from the initial response at t=0 h (23.7+/-3.8 mN/mm(2)). In sharp contrast, in preparations transfected with AdGalpha(i2), the response to isoproterenol was significantly attenuated (5.9+/-2.0 vs. 27.6+/-4.2 mN/mm(2), t=72 vs. 0 h, respectively, P
