Cardiac energy dependence on glucose activates metabolic genes controlled by mTOR

ABSTRACT: Mice lacking the expression of Acsl1 in the heart (Acsl1H-/-) have impaired cardiac fatty acid oxidation and develop spontaneous cardiac hypertrophy due to increased mTOR activation. To explore how the loss of ACSL1 alters gene expression, we performed a global gene expression analysis on ventricular RNA isolated from Acsl1H-/- and Acsl1flox/flox mice ten weeks after tamoxifen treatment when ACSL1 protein is completely lost and the specific activity of ACSL1 in Acsl1H-/- hearts is reduced 90% Two-condition experiment, cadiac gene expression of Acsl1H-/- vs Acsl1flox/flox mice 10 weeks after tamoxifen treatment. Biological replicates: 3-4 per condition.

Project description:Three major MAP kinase signaling cascades, ERK, p38 and JNK, play significant roles in the development of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure in response to external stress and neural/hormonal stimuli. In order to study the specific function of each MAP kinase branch in adult heart, we have generated three transgenic mouse models with cardiac specific and temporally regulated expression of activated mutants of Ras, MKK3 and MKK7, which are selective upstream activators for ERK, p38 and JNK, respectively. Gene expression profiles in transgenic adult hearts were determined using cDNA microarrays at both early (4-7 days) and late (2-4 weeks) time points following transgene induction. From this study, we revealed common changes in gene expression among the three models, particularly involving extracellular matrix remodeling. However, distinct expression patterns characteristic for each pathway were also identified in cell signaling, growth and physiology. In addition, genes with dynamic expression differences between early vs. late stages illustrated primary vs. secondary changes upon MAP kinase activation in adult hearts. These results provide an overview to both short term and long term effects of MAP kinase activation in heart and support some common as well as unique roles for each MAP kinase cascade in the development of heart failure. Experiment Overall Design:MHC-floxed-HRas-v12/MKK3bE/MKK7D transgenic mice were bred with MHC-Mer-Cre-Mer (MCM) mice (from Dr. J. Molkentin, Cincinnati Children's Hospital) to generate double transgenic animals harboring both floxed transgenes and Mer-Cre-Mer transgene. At 12 weeks of age the double transgenic mice and non-transgenic littermate controls were treated via i.p. injection of tamoxifen at a dosage of 20mg/kgBW once a day for 3 consecutive days as reported. The hearts were harvested at an early (4-7 days post first tamoxifen injection) and a late (2-4 weeks) time point. Left ventricles were dissected and rapidly frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80C prior to protein and RNA analysis. Transcription profiling of
