Rapid resynthesis of the adenylate pool in cardiac myocytes is important for recovery of contractility and normal function of regulatory mechanisms in the heart. Adenosine and adenine are thought to be the most effective substrates for nucleotide synthesis, but the possibility of using other compounds has been studied very little in cardiomyocytes. In the present study, the effect of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) on the adenylate pool of isolated cardiomyocytes was investigated and compared to the effect of adenine and adenosine. Adult rat cardiomyocytes were isolated using the collagenase perfusion technique. The cells were incubated in the presence of adenine derivatives for 90 min followed by nucleotide determination by HPLC. The concentrations of adenine nucleotides expressed in nmol/mg of cell protein were initially 22.1 ± 1.4, 4.0 ± 0.3 and 0.70 ± 0.08 for ATP, ADP and AMP, respectively (n = 10, ± S.E.M.), and the total adenylate pool was 26.8 ± 1.6. In the presence of 1.25 mM SAM in the medium, the adenylate pool increased by 5.2 ± 0.4 nmol/mg of cell protein, but only if 1 mM ribose was additionally present in the medium. No changes were observed with SAM alone. A similar increase (by 4.9 ± 0.6 nmol/mg protein) was observed after incubation with 1.25 mM adenine plus 1 mM ribose, but no increase was observed if ribose was omitted. Adenosine at 0.1 or 1.25 mM concentrations also caused an increase in the adenylate pool (by 5.2 ± 1.0 and 5.2 ± 0.9 nmol/mg protein, respectively), which in contrast to the SAM or adenine was independent of the additional presence of ribose. Thus, S-adenosyl-L-methionine could be used as a precursor of the adenylate pool in cardiomyocytes, which is as efficient in increasing the adenylate pool after 90 min of incubation as adenosine or adenine. Nucleotide synthesis from SAM involves the formation of adenine as an intermediate with its subsequent incorporation by adenine phosphoribosyltransferase
