The intracellular Na + concentration ([Na + ] i ) is a crucial but understudied regulator of cardiac myocyte function. The Na + /K + ATPase (NKA) controls the steady-state [Na + ] i and thereby determines the set-point for intracellular Ca 2+ . Here, we investigate the nanoscopic organization and local adrenergic regulation of the NKA macromolecular complex and how it differentially regulates the intracellular Na + and Ca 2+ homeostases in atrial and ventricular myocytes. Multicolor STORM super-resolution microscopy, Western Blot analyses, and in vivo examination of adrenergic regulation are employed to examine the organization and function of Na + nanodomains in cardiac myocytes. Quantitative fluorescence microscopy at high spatiotemporal resolution is used in conjunction with cellular electrophysiology to investigate intracellular Na + homeostasis in atrial and ventricular myocytes. The NKAα1 (NKAα1) and the L-type Ca 2+ -channel (Ca v 1.2) form a nanodomain with a center-to center distance of ∼65 nm in both ventricular and atrial myocytes. NKAα1 protein expression levels are ∼3 fold higher in atria compared to ventricle. 100% higher atrial I NKA , produced by large NKA "superclusters", underlies the substantially lower Na + concentration in atrial myocytes compared to the benchmark values set in ventricular myocytes. The NKA's regulatory protein phospholemman (PLM) has similar expression levels across atria and ventricle resulting in a much lower PLM/NKAα1 ratio for atrial compared to ventricular tissue. In addition, a huge PLM phosphorylation reserve in atrial tissue produces a high ß-adrenergic sensitivity of I NKA in atrial myocytes. ß-adrenergic regulation of I NKA is locally mediated in the NKAα1-Ca v 1.2 nanodomain via A-kinase anchoring proteins. NKAα1, Ca v 1.2 and their accessory proteins form a structural and regulatory nanodomain at the cardiac dyad. The tissue-specific composition and local adrenergic regulation of this "signaling cloud" is a main regulator of the distinct global intracellular Na + and Ca 2+ concentrations in atrial and ventricular myocytes.
