Lysophosphatidylserine induces necrosis in pressure overloaded male mouse hearts via G protein coupled receptor 34.

ABSTRACT: Heart failure is a leading cause of mortality in developed countries. Cell death is a key player in the development of heart failure. Calcium-independent phospholipase A₂β (iPLA₂β) produces lipid mediators by catalyzing lipids and induces nuclear shrinkage in caspase-independent cell death. Here, we show that lysophosphatidylserine generated by iPLA₂β induces necrotic cardiomyocyte death, as well as contractile dysfunction mediated through its receptor, G protein-coupled receptor 34 (GPR34). Cardiomyocyte-specific iPLA₂β-deficient male mice were subjected to pressure overload. While control mice showed left ventricular systolic dysfunction with necrotic cardiomyocyte death, iPLA₂β-deficient mice preserved cardiac function. Lipidomic analysis revealed a reduction of 18:0 lysophosphatidylserine in iPLA₂β-deficient hearts. Knockdown of Gpr34 attenuated 18:0 lysophosphatidylserine-induced necrosis in neonatal male rat cardiomyocytes, while the ablation of Gpr34 in male mice reduced the development of pressure overload-induced cardiac remodeling. Thus, the iPLA₂β-lysophosphatidylserine-GPR34-necrosis signaling axis plays a detrimental role in the heart in response to pressure overload.

Project description:AimsEndothelial dysfunction plays a pivotal role in atherosclerosis, but the detailed mechanism remains incomplete understood. Nogo-B is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-localized protein mediating ER-mitochondrial morphology. We previously showed endothelial Nogo-B as a key regulator of endothelial function in the setting of hypertension. Here, we aim to further assess the role of Nogo-B in coronary atherosclerosis in ApoE-/- mice with pressure overload.Methods and resultsWe generated double knockout (DKO) mouse models of systemically or endothelium-specifically excising Nogo-A/B gene on an ApoE-/- background. After 7 weeks of transverse aortic constriction (TAC) surgery, compared to ApoE-/- mice DKO mice were resistant to the development of coronary atherosclerotic lesions and plaque rapture. Sustained elevation of Nogo-B and adhesion molecules (VCAM-1/ICAM-1), early markers of atherosclerosis, was identified in heart tissues and endothelial cells (ECs) isolated from TAC ApoE-/- mice, changes that were significantly repressed by Nogo-B deficiency. In cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) exposure to inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β), Nogo-B was upregulated and activated reactive oxide species (ROS)-p38-p65 signaling axis. Mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) is a key protein tethering ER to mitochondria in ECs, and we showed that Nogo-B expression positively correlated with Mfn2 protein level. And Nogo-B deletion in ECs or in ApoE-/- mice reduced Mfn2 protein content and increased ER-mitochondria distance, reduced ER-mitochondrial Ca2+ transport and mitochondrial ROS generation, and prevented VCAM-1/ICAM-1 upregulation and EC dysfunction, eventually restrained atherosclerotic lesions development.ConclusionOur study revealed that Nogo-B is a critical modulator in promoting endothelial dysfunction and consequent pathogenesis of coronary atherosclerosis in pressure overloaded hearts of ApoE-/- mice. Nogo-B may hold the promise to be a common therapeutic target in the setting of hypertension.

Project description:BackgroundProinflammatory cytokines play an important role in the pathogenesis of heart failure. The mechanisms responsible for maintaining sterile inflammation within failing hearts remain poorly defined. Although transcriptional control is important for proinflammatory cytokine gene expression, the stability of mRNA also contributes to the kinetics of immune responses. Regnase-1 is an RNase involved in the degradation of a set of proinflammatory cytokine mRNAs in immune cells. The role of Regnase-1 in nonimmune cells such as cardiomyocytes remains to be elucidated.MethodsTo examine the role of proinflammatory cytokine degradation by Regnase-1 in cardiomyocytes, cardiomyocyte-specific Regnase-1-deficient mice were generated. The mice were subjected to pressure overload by means of transverse aortic constriction to induce heart failure. Cardiac remodeling was assessed by echocardiography as well as histological and molecular analyses 4 weeks after operation. Inflammatory cell infiltration was examined by immunostaining. Interleukin-6 signaling was inhibited by administration with its receptor antibody. Overexpression of Regnase-1 in the heart was performed by adeno-associated viral vector-mediated gene transfer.ResultsCardiomyocyte-specific Regnase-1-deficient mice showed no cardiac phenotypes under baseline conditions, but exhibited severe inflammation and dilated cardiomyopathy after 4 weeks of pressure overload compared with control littermates. Four weeks after transverse aortic constriction, the Il6 mRNA level was upregulated, but not other cytokine mRNAs, including tumor necrosis factor-α, in Regnase-1-deficient hearts. Although the Il6 mRNA level increased 1 week after operation in both Regnase-1-deficient and control hearts, it showed no increase in control hearts 4 weeks after operation. Administration of anti-interleukin-6 receptor antibody attenuated the development of inflammation and cardiomyopathy in cardiomyocyte-specific Regnase-1-deficient mice. In severe pressure overloaded wild-type mouse hearts, sustained induction of Il6 mRNA was observed, even though the protein level of Regnase-1 increased. Adeno-associated virus 9-mediated cardiomyocyte-targeted gene delivery of Regnase-1 or administration of anti-interleukin-6 receptor antibody attenuated the development of cardiomyopathy induced by severe pressure overload in wild-type mice.ConclusionsThe degradation of cytokine mRNA by Regnase-1 in cardiomyocytes plays an important role in restraining sterile inflammation in failing hearts and the Regnase-1-mediated pathway might be a therapeutic target to treat patients with heart failure.

Project description:Volume overload (VO) and pressure overload (PO) are two common pathophysiological conditions associated with cardiac disease. VO, in particular, often occurs in a number of diseases, and no clinically meaningful molecular marker has yet been established. We intend to find the main differential gene expression using bioinformatics analysis. GSE97363 and GSE52796 are the two gene expression array datasets related with VO and PO, respectively. The LIMMA algorithm was used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of VO and PO. The DEGs were divided into three groups and subjected to functional enrichment analysis, which comprised GO analysis, KEGG analysis, and the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network. To validate the sequencing data, cardiomyocytes from AR and TAC mouse models were used to extract RNA for qRT-PCR. The three genes with random absolute values of LogFC and indicators of heart failure (natriuretic peptide B, NPPB) were detected: carboxylesterase 1D (CES1D), whirlin (WHRN), and WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 2 (WNK2). The DEGs in VO and PO were determined to be 2761 and 1093, respectively, in this study. Following the intersection, 305 genes were obtained, 255 of which expressed the opposing regulation and 50 of which expressed the same regulation. According to the GO and pathway enrichment studies, DEGs with opposing regulation are mostly common in fatty acid degradation, propanoate metabolism, and other signaling pathways. Finally, we used Cytoscape's three techniques to identify six hub genes by intersecting 255 with the opposite expression and constructing a PPI network. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPARα), acyl-CoA dehydrogenase medium chain (ACADM), patatin-like phospholipase domain containing 2 (PNPLA2), isocitrate dehydrogenase 3 (IDH3), heat shock protein family D member 1 (HSPD1), and dihydrolipoamide S-acetyltransferase (DLAT) were identified as six potential genes. Furthermore, we predict that the hub genes PPARα, ACADM, and PNPLA2 regulate VO myocardial changes via fatty acid metabolism and acyl-Coa dehydrogenase activity, and that these genes could be employed as basic biomarkers for VO diagnosis and treatment.
