It has been shown that sera from chagasic patients contain an antibody which binds to β-adrenoceptors of myocardium and modulates their activity. Chagasic IgG triggered a marked stimulation of myocardial contractility with an increase in intramyocardial cyclic AMP and inhibition of (Na+ + K+)-ATPase activity. both the mechanical and enzymatic effects of the IgG could be prevented by β-adrenoceptor blockade or after the absorption of chagasic IgG with turkey red blood cells. In contrast, guinea pig red blood cells were unable to remove the β-reactivity of chagasic IgG. These findings suggest that the IgG from chagasic patients increases myocardial contractility by behaving as a β-agonist. This effect is likely related to stimulation of the adenylate cyclase coupled to the cardiac β-adrenoceptor. © 1986.
