The Antiarrhythmic Drug Flecainide Enhances Aversion to HCl in Mice

Abstract Drug-induced taste disorders reduce quality of life, but little is known about the molecular mechanisms by which drugs induce taste disturbances. In this study, we investigated the short-term and long-term effects of the antiarrhythmic drug flecainide, which is known to cause taste dysfunction. Analyses of behavioral responses (licking tests) revealed that mice given a single intraperitoneal injection of flecainide exhibited a significant reduction in preference for a sour tastant (HCl) but not for other taste solutions (NaCl, quinine, sucrose, KCl and monopotassium glutamate) when compared with controls. Mice administered a single dose of flecainide also had significantly higher taste nerve responses to HCl but not to other taste solutions. Compared with controls, mice administered flecainide once-daily for 30 d showed a reduced preference for HCl without any changes in the behavioral responses to other taste solutions. The electrophysiological experiments using HEK293T cells transiently expressing otopetrin-1 (Otop1; the mouse sour taste receptor) showed that flecainide did not alter the responses to HCl. Taken together, our results suggest that flecainide specifically enhances the response to HCl in mice during short-term and long-term administration. Although further studies will be needed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms, these findings provide new insights into the pathophysiology of drug-induced taste disorders.


Significance Statement
Drug-induced taste disorders reduce quality of life and can lead to nutritional disturbances.However, little is known about its molecular mechanisms.We focused on the antiarrhythmic drug flecainide inducing "unpleasant or bad taste" in human patients.Mice administered a single dose of flecainide exhibited a reduced preference for and higher taste nerve responses to HCl, sour tastants specifically.Flecainide had little change in response to HCl in HEK293T cells expressing the sour taste receptor, proton channel otopetrin-1 (Otop1).Our results suggest that flecainide enhances the responses of sour-sensing taste cells to HCl.Although further studies will be needed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms, these findings provide new insights into the pathophysiology of drug-induced taste disorders.

Introduction
More than 280 different medications are known to cause alterations in taste perception in patients, and these adverse reactions are known as drug-induced taste disorders (Naik et al., 2010).Such drug-induced taste disorders reduce quality of life and can lead to nutritional disturbances, malnutrition, and poor adherence to management plans.However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms that underlie drug-induced taste disorders.
Flecainide is an antiarrhythmic drug known to cause taste dysfunction.Flecainide, a widely used antiarrhythmic drug, prevents supraventricular and ventricular arrhythmias, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and flutter (Mueller and Baur, 1986).The main antiarrhythmic action of this drug is thought to be because of the inhibition of voltage-gated sodium channels (SCN5A), which slows the conduction of electrical impulses within the heart and prolongs the refractory period of ventricular and atrial myocytes (H.Liu et al., 2002).Flecainide also inhibits cardiac potassium channels (KCNB1) contributing to the delayed rectifier potassium current (Tamargo et al., 2004), which also increases cardiac refractoriness.Additionally, flecainide was reported to block calcium release channel, ryanodine receptor-2 (RyR2), and thereby suppress calcium waves in cardiomyocytes and prevent catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia in mice and humans (Watanabe et al., 2009).A study examining the long-term efficacy of flecainide in the treatment of supraventricular tachycardia found that some patients experienced central nervous system side effects such as visual disturbances (;20% of cases), nervousness (4%), dizziness (2.4%), and taste disturbances (5%; Neuss, 1985).Furthermore, some patients describe "unpleasant or bad taste" as an adverse reaction of flecainide (Muhiddin et al., 1985;Kreeger and Hammill, 1987).However, the molecular mechanisms underlining the unwanted effects of flecainide on the taste system have not been elucidated.
Taste buds consist of 50-100 taste cells that interact with gustatory nerves.Recent molecular studies have discovered candidate receptors for five basic tastes (Lindemann, 2001;Chandrashekar et al., 2006;Shigemura and Ninomiya, 2016).These receptors are divided into two types: G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that discriminate sweet, bitter and umami tastes, and channel-type receptors that discriminate salty and sour tastes.The taste receptors for sweet [taste receptor type 1 member 2 (T1R2) and T1R3], bitter [taste receptor type 2 (T2R)], salty [epithelial sodium channel (ENaC)] and sour [otopetrin-1 (Otop1); Tu et al., 2018] are expressed in a distinct subset of cells in taste buds, which suggests that the coding of taste quality may occur at the level of taste cells.Taste cells expressing GPCRs for sweet, bitter or umami use multiple ion channels such as TRP channel subfamily M member 5 (TRPM5), voltage-gated sodium channels (SCN2A, SCN3A, SCN9A) and voltage-gated potassium channels (KCNQ1) in the transduction cascades (Ohmoto et al., 2006;Wang et al., 2009).The other taste cells expressing Otop1, use voltage-gated calcium channels (alpha1A) in addition to SCN2A, and potassium channels (KCNQ1, Kir2.1;Medler et al., 2003;L. Liu et al., 2005;DeFazio et al., 2006;Gao et al., 2009;Ye et al., 2016).Furthermore, L-type voltage-gated calcium channels are thought to interact with RyRs in mouse taste cells (Rebello et al., 2013).These taste type-specific ion channels play important roles in the regulation of distinct taste cell excitability.
We thus explored the pathomechanisms of the adverse reactions of flecainide on the taste system.We investigated the effects of flecainide on the behavioral and neural responses of mice to taste stimuli, the whole cell current of HEK293T cells transiently expressing mouse Otop1.We found that flecainide specifically enhances the sour taste substance HCl responses in mice.The results in Otop1-expressing cells provided no suggestion that flecainide may be involved in a pathway of sour-sensing proton channel, Otop1.A much more extensive set of experiments is required to demonstrate whether Otop1 is involved.The above actions of flecainide may contribute to the taste disorders experienced by patients as an adverse reaction of this antiarrhythmic drug.

Animals
Mouse husbandry and all mouse experiments were conducted in accordance with the ethical guidelines of Kyushu University and the Rules for Animal Experimentation of Hirosaki University.All experimental protocols and procedures were approved by the Committee for Laboratory Animal Care and Use at Kyushu University (approval no.A19-286-0) and the Animal Research Committee of Hirosaki University (approval no.A18002, A19002 and A19009) and were in accordance with the National Institutes of Health Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals.C57BL/ 6J mice were purchased from Charles River Laboratories Japan and CLEA Japan.All mice were housed in a 12/12 h light/dark cycle at 23°C and had ad libitum access to water and food pellets (CE-2, CLEA Japan).Male mice aged 8-12 weeks were used for all experiments (Takai et al., 2015).

Taste compounds and drugs
The following taste solutions were used in this study: acetic acid (AA), citric acid (CA), HCl, NaCl (with or without amiloride), KCl, sucrose [with quinine-HCl (QHCl)], QHCl, NH 4 Cl (all purchased from Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Corporation) and monopotassium glutamate (MPG; Sigma-Aldrich).All taste solutions were dissolved in distilled water (DW; Yoshida et al., 2010).The following antiarrhythmic drugs were used: amiodarone (A2530, Tokyo Chemical Industry), flecainide (F6777, Sigma-Aldrich) and propafenone (P2301, Tokyo Chemical Industry).All drugs were dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (Fujifilm Wako Pure Chemical Corporation).For the behavioral and neural experiments, a stock solution of flecainide was diluted in vehicle (5% glucose) to its final concentration just before administration by intraperitoneal injection.The dose of flecainide administered was determined with reference to the dose for humans stated in the prescribing information.

Short-term lick test
Details of the procedures used for this test are described in our previous papers (Yoshida et al., 2010;Shigemura et al., 2013;Takai et al., 2015).Each animal was deprived of water for 23 h, placed in the test cage on day 1 of training and then given free access to DW during a 1-h session.During training sessions on days 2-5, the animal was trained to drink DW on an interval schedule that consisted of 10-s periods of presentation of DW alternated with 20-s inter-trial intervals.On day 6, the number of licks for each test stimulus and DW was counted during the first 10 s after the animal's first lick using a lick meter (Yutaka Electronics).Measurements of the number of licks 30 min after the intraperitoneal injection of drug were made in the following four experimental groups: (1) a single injection of vehicle (5% glucose); (2) a single injection of flecainide (2 mg/kg body weight, equivalent to the maximal daily dose in humans) dissolved in vehicle (Watanabe et al., 2009); (3) repeated administrations of vehicle for 30 d; and (4) repeated administrations of flecainide (2 mg/kg body weight) for 30 d.The measurements were made the day after last administration in the repeated administration groups.On each test day, the first test stimulus given to the animal was DW, and then the following solutions were tested in a randomized order: 1-50 mM AA, 1-30 mM CA, 1-30 mM HCl, 30-1000 mM NaCl (with and without 30 mM amiloride), 10-300 mM KCl, 30-1000 mM sucrose (with 0.1 mM QHCl), 0.003-3 mM QHCl and 1-1000 mM MPG.The mean value of the tastant/ DW lick ratio for each test stimulus was calculated for each animal.

Recording of CT nerve responses
Whole nerve responses to lingual application of tastants were recorded from the CT nerve as described previously (Yoshida et al., 2010;Shigemura et al., 2013;Takai et al., 2015).The trachea of each mouse was canulated under pentobarbital anesthesia (50-60 mg/kg body weight), and the mouse was then fixed in the supine position with a head holder to allow dissection of the CT nerve.The right CT nerve was dissected free from surrounding tissues after removal of the pterygoid muscle and cut at the point of its entry to the bulla.The entire nerve was placed on an Ag/AgCl electrode.An indifferent electrode was placed in nearby tissue.Neural activity was fed into an amplifier (K-1; Iyodenshikagaku) and monitored on an oscilloscope and audio monitor.Whole nerve responses were integrated with a time constant of 1.0 s and recorded on a computer using a PowerLab/sp4 system (ADInstruments).For taste stimulation of the fungiform papillae, the anterior half of the tongue was enclosed in a flow chamber made of silicone rubber.Taste solutions (100 mM NH 4 Cl, 3-50 mM AA, 1-30 mM CA, 1-30 mM HCl, 30-1000 mM NaCl, 100 mM KCl, 30-1000 mM sucrose, 20 mM QHCl and 100 mM MPG) were delivered to each part of the tongue by gravity flow for 30 s.The tongue was washed with DW for ;1 min between successive stimulations.After a series of control responses had been recorded, each mouse received a single intraperitoneal injection of flecainide (2 mg/ kg body weight) dissolved in vehicle (5% glucose).Another series of responses was recorded 15-30 min after flecainide administration, in accordance with a previous study (Watanabe et al., 2009).Only data from stable recordings were used for the analysis.The magnitude of the integrated whole nerve response was measured during 30-s stimulation.The response was averaged over a 20-s period after excluding the data for the initial and final 5-s periods, and this value was normalized to the response to 100 mM NH 4 Cl to account for interanimal variations in the absolute responses.Because the cell type involved in the NH 4 Cl response may be Type III cells (Oka et al., 2013), the NH 4 Cl response was normalized to the baseline, in accordance with a previous study (Vandenbeuch et al, 2013(Vandenbeuch et al, , 2015;;Larson et al., 2015Larson et al., , 2020)).The baseline-normalized NH 4 Cl response was not significantly altered by flecainide administration.

Immunohistochemistory
The dissected tongues of each animal (n ¼ 3) were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) in PBS for 50 min.After dehydration with sucrose solution (10% for 1 h, 20% for 1 h, 30% for 3 h at 4°C), the frozen block of fixed tissue was embedded in optimal cutting temperature (OCT) compound (Sakura Finetek) and sectioned into 10-mm-thick slices, which were mounted on silane-coated glass slides.Next, Immunofluorescence of labeled taste cells was observed using a laser scanning microscope (FV-1000, Olympus); images were obtained using Fluoview software (Olympus).To determine the number of cells expressing PLCb 2 and CA4, we counted positive cells in each taste bud in horizontal sections of the circumvallate papillae.Image-ProPlus (version 4.0; Mediacybernetics) was used to exclude artifactual signals; the cells showing a signal density greater than the mean plus two standard deviations of the density in taste cells in the negative control (primary antibodies omitted) were considered positive.

Construction of mouse Otop1
Total RNA was isolated from mouse kidney, and firststrand cDNA was synthesized using the SuperScript IV First-strand Synthesis System (Thermo Fisher Scientific).The deduced open reading frames (ORFs) of mouse Otop1 (mOtop1) were amplified in two steps by nested-PCR using PrimeSTAR MAX (TaKaRa Bio).Exon-spanning primers were designed based on the mOtop1 nucleotide sequence in the NCBI database (accession no.NM_172709.3).The PCR products of the ORFs were subcloned into the pcDNA5/FRT mammalian expression vector using the In-Fusion HD Cloning kit (Takara Bio).The entire sequence of mOtop1 was confirmed using a BigDye Terminator system (Applied Biosystems).

Electrophysiology
Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings were performed as described previously (Liang et al., 2019).mOtop1/pcDNA5/FRT/ TO was co-transfected with EGFP/pCAGGS into HEK293T cells using ScreenFect A. The standard and acidic bath solutions contained 140 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 10 mM HEPES, 2 mM MgCl 2 , 2 mM CaCl 2 , and 10 mM glucose.The acidic bath solutions contained 5 mM HCl with 15 mM flecainide or DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide; the vehicle of flecainide).As the human ASIC1a channel in HEK293T cells can be blocked by a pH 6.8 bath solution (Gunthorpe et al., 2001), we adjusted the standard bath solution to pH 6.8 with NaOH.Cells were voltage-clamped at À60 mV using an EPC10 amplifier (HEKA Elektronik).Patch pipettes had resistances between 2 and 5 MV, and they were filled with a pipette solution consisting of 140 mM KCl, 5 mM EGTA, and 10 mM HEPES.We adjusted the pipette solution to pH 7.4 with KOH. 5 mM HCl 1 DMSO in bath solution was pH 3.22 and 5 mM HCl 1 15 mM flecainide in bath solution was pH 3.21.There was no difference between the two solutions.

Statistical analysis
Data are shown as mean 6 SD.The short-term lick scores and the CT nerve responses were compared by unpaired t test with Bonferroni correction as post hoc test preceded by factorial two-way ANOVA.The electrophysiology and the immunohistochemistry were compared by unpaired t test.IBM SPSS Statistics (IBM Corp.) was used to perform all calculations.

Short-term effects of flecainide on the behavioral responses of mice to taste stimuli
First, we investigated the effects of a single dose of flecainide on the licking behavior of mice in response to taste stimuli.The lick ratio for HCl was significantly lower in mice treated with flecainide than in control mice (F (1,60) ¼ 41.383, p , 0.001, ANOVA, effect of flecainide; Fig. 1A; Table 1).By contrast, the lick ratios for other taste solutions including weak acids (AA and CA), NaCl, NaCl plus amiloride, KCl, QHCl, sucrose plus QHCl, and MPG were not significantly altered by flecainide (p .0.05, ANOVA, Fig. 1B-I; Table 1).

Short-term effects of flecainide on the gustatory nerve responses to taste stimuli in mice
Next, we investigated the effects of a single dose of flecainide on the gustatory nerve responses to various taste stimuli in mice.We focused on the response of the chorda tympani (CT) nerve, which innervates the anterior part of the tongue responsible for sour taste discrimination (Teng  , 2019;Zhang et al., 2019).The CT nerve response to HCl was significantly greater in flecainide-treated mice than in control mice, and there was a significant difference by post hoc test only at 5 mM HCl but not at the other concentrations tested; that is, there was an overall effect of injection, and the strongest difference was at 5 mM [p , 0.01, t test (Fig. 2B,C), and F (1,51) ¼ 5.658, p ¼ 0.021, ANOVA, effect of flecainide (Fig. 2C); Table 2].What is more, the increased responses to 5 mM HCl after flecainide appeared because of a prolongation of the response, rather than an increase in peak.By contrast, flecainide was without significant effect on the CT nerve responses to other taste solutions such as AA, CA, NaCl, KCl, sucrose, QHCl, and MPG (p .0.05, t test or ANOVA; Fig. 2A,B,D-G; Table 2).Furthermore, flecainide had little effect on the NH 4 Cl responses (p ¼ 0.35, t test; Fig. 2H).

Long-term effects of flecainide on the behavioral responses of mice to taste stimuli
We evaluated the long-term effects of flecainide on the behavioral responses to taste stimuli in mice given repeated intraperitoneal injections of flecainide for 30 d.The lick ratio for HCl was significantly lower in flecainidetreated mice than in control mice (F (1,40) ¼ 9.977, p ¼ 0.003, ANOVA, effect of flecainide; Fig. 3A; Table 3), whereas the lick ratios for other taste solutions (such as NaCl, NaCl plus amiloride, KCl, sucrose plus QHCl, QHCl, MPG, AA, and CA) were not affected by flecainide (p .0.05, ANOVA; Fig. 3B-I; Table 3).No change in the number of Type II and Type III taste cells was observed after 30 d of treatment with flecainide (Fig. 4A,  B; Table 4).

Effects of flecainide on the responses of HEK293T cells expressing Otop1
Our subsequent experiments explored whether the Otop1 channel, a sour taste receptor (Tu et al., 2018;Teng et al., 2019;Zhang et al., 2019), might be involved in the effects of flecainide on the behavioral and neural responses to HCl.We used a mOtop1/pcDNA5 construct (Table 5) to generate HEK293T cells transiently expressing mOtop1 protein and analyzed the effects of flecainide Although the peak current densities were not different between two stimuli (Fig. 5C; Table 6).These results of the present simplified experiments suggest that flecainide does not directly affect the channel activities of Otop1, Table 3: Results of statistical analysis for the effect of injection of Fle on the lick ratio in mice (Fig. 3)  although the involvement of Otop1 needs to discussed based on further extensive experiments.

Discussion
The aim of this study was to provide insights into the pathomechanisms underlying flecainide-induced taste disorders.Flecainide is known to cause taste dysfunction as an adverse reaction (Muhiddin et al., 1985;Kreeger and Hammill, 1987), but little is elucidated about the symptoms, and mechanisms.Our in vivo experiments were the first to characterize that the administration of flecainide exhibited a reduced preference for and higher taste nerve responses to HCl, sour tastant specifically.However, in the experiments with HEK293T cells expressing mOtop1, we could not observe the effects of flecainide on the response to HCl in HEK293T cells.This discrepancy may be because of the possibility that the enhancement effect of flecainide on HCl is mediated by other sour sensory signals rather than Otop1 in sour taste cells.
Multiple sour taste receptor candidates have been proposed such as acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs; Ugawa et al., 2003), hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated potassium channels (HCNs; Stevens et al., 2001), potassium channels (Lin et al., 2004;Richter et al., 2004), polycystic kidney disease 2L1 (PKD2L1) and PKD1L3 heteromers (Huang et al., 2006;Ishimaru et al., 2006;Lopezjimenez et al., 2006), and Otop1 (Tu et al., 2018).Recently, it was reported that knock-out of Otop1 abolished sour taste responses from mouse sour-sensing taste receptor cells (Teng et al., 2019).The mice engineered to express Otop1 in sweet taste receptor cells possessed taste cells that responded to both sweet and   sour stimuli (Zhang et al., 2019).These findings indicated that Otop1 plays a role in the perception of sour taste in mice.Flecainide acts as a blocker for several voltage-gated K 1 channels (Kv), such as hERG (Kv11.1,encoded by KCNH2) at clinically relevant concentrations in whole cell voltage clamp recordings of hERG current made from an HEK293 cell line stably expressing hERG (Paul et al., 2002).The previous histologic and transcriptome analyses showed hERG is expressed in sour taste cells (Ohmoto et al., 2006;Ren et al., 2017), thus blockade of hERG by flecainide could increase the excitability of sour cells.In the cardiac inwardly rectifying current, IK 1 , mainly Kir2.1 (KCNJ2, encoded in inwardly rectifying potassium channels), flecainide also has a putative differential effect of blocking atrial IK 1 and increasing ventricular IK 1 (Caballero et al., 2010).These differences depend on the variations in expression profiles of the other IK 1 components, Kir2.2 and Kir2.3, between animal species or tissues (Caballero et al., 2010).Kir2.1 is a key component of sour taste transduction by generating response in sourresponsive cells by blocking resting K 1 currents because of intracellular acidification (Ye et al., 2016).It is possible that flecainide also blocks Kir2.1 in sour cells, resulting in increased cell excitation.
The somatosensory inputs via trigeminal nerve are supposed to be one of the components of the remaining acid responses in Otop1-KO mice (Teng et al., 2019).Proton stimulates TRPV1, a capsaicin, protons, and heat-sensitive nonselective cation channel, in trigeminal neurons (L.Liu and Simon, 2000).According to the previous papers, TRPV1 function (potentiation of capsaicin responses and development of thermal hypersensitivity) was attenuated in P2Y2-KO mice (Malin et al., 2008), and P2Y2-induced hyperalgesia is not observed in TRPV1-KO animals, indicating a functional interaction between TRPV1 and P2Y2 (Moriyama et al., 2003).The activation of P2Y2 downregulate Kv4.2 expression, encoded by KCND2, a voltagegated potassium channel which expressed in trigeminal neurons, results in the reduced current density and the enhanced neuronal excitability in rat trigeminal neurons (Li et al., 2014).Flecainide is reported as a blocker for Kv4.2 in somatosensory neurons (Caballero et al., 2003), thus, an application of flecainide may inhibit Kv4.2 in trigeminal neurons expressing both TRPV1 and P2Y2, and enhance acid sensation via TRPV1.This enhanced sensation in somatosensory neurons may be involved in the increased behavioral aversion to HCl in flecainide-treated animals, in concert with the activation of sour taste cells.In addition, the potentiation of proton sensing may be a possible explanation why changes were observed only in low pH strong acid (HCl) but not for weak acids (AA and CA) in our electrophysiological and behavioral experiments (Table 7).
Various modulators of sour taste have been reported previously.For example, noradrenaline was found to significantly reduce the sour taste threshold by 22% and the bitter taste threshold by 39% in healthy humans (Heath et al., 2006).Mice lacking the receptor for ghrelin, an orexigenic hormone, showed reduced behavioral responses to sour and salty tasting compounds (Shin et al., 2010).Furthermore, mice lacking the receptor for glucagon-like peptide-1, an incretin hormone that stimulates insulin secretion, exhibited reduced sweet taste sensitivity and enhanced citric acid taste sensitivity in behavioral assays (Shin et al., 2008).Thus, although multiple factors have been found to modulate sour taste sensitivity in humans and mice, they were not specific for the sour taste modality.This may be because of nonspecific expression of their cognate receptors in the taste buds.In the present study, flecainide specifically enhanced sour taste without any effects on the other basic taste responses.This is the first finding that sour taste sensitivity is enhanced selectively by the application of a specified substance.
In summary, we report the taste alteration that occurs as an adverse reaction of flecainide, a widely used arrhythmic drug.Our experiments revealed that flecainide specifically enhances the response to HCl, sour tastant in mice during short-term and long-term administration without causing histologic changes.Although further studies will be needed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms, our findings contribute new insights into the understanding of the pathophysiology on drug-induced taste disorders.
