Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 inhibition protects cardiomyocytes from inflammation and apoptosis in diabetic cardiomyopathy.

ABSTRACT: Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by structural alterations such as cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, necrosis and focal fibrosis. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) is a nuclear enzyme which can be activated by DNA damage and plays a critical role in various diseases. We hypothesized that PARP-1 may play an important role in DCM and that its inhibition may protect cardiomyocytes from inflammation and apoptosis in DCM. H9c2 cardiomyocytes were treated with normal glucose, mannitol or high glucose (HG). Male C57BL/6 mice or PARP-1-/- mice were treated with streptozotocin (STZ) by intraperitoneal injection for 5 consecutive days to induce diabetes. In vitro, HG stimulation induced oxidative stress and DNA damage and increased PARP-1 expression and activity. Compared with the control, pretreatment with PARP-1 siRNA signiï¬cantly reduced HG-induced inflammatory response, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-6 secretion, and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression. PARP-1 inhibition reduced HG-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis through downregulation of cleaved caspases and activation of IGF-1R/Akt pathway. In vivo, hyperglycemia increased the protein expression of nitrotyrosine and PARP-1 as well as PARP-1 activity. PARP-1 gene deletion significantly improved cardiac dysfunction and reduced inflammatory response and apoptosis. This work demonstrated the critical role of PARP-1 in diabetic heart injury, and suggested that PARP-1 inhibition may be a feasible strategy for the treatment of DCM.

Project description:UNLABELLED:Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) is a constitutive enzyme, the major isoform of the PARP family, which is involved in the regulation of DNA repair, cell death, metabolism, and inflammatory responses. Pharmacological inhibitors of PARP provide significant therapeutic benefits in various preclinical disease models associated with tissue injury and inflammation. However, our understanding the role of PARP activation in the pathophysiology of liver inflammation and fibrosis is limited. In this study we investigated the role of PARP-1 in liver inflammation and fibrosis using acute and chronic models of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4 )-induced liver injury and fibrosis, a model of bile duct ligation (BDL)-induced hepatic fibrosis in vivo, and isolated liver-derived cells ex vivo. Pharmacological inhibition of PARP with structurally distinct inhibitors or genetic deletion of PARP-1 markedly attenuated CCl4 -induced hepatocyte death, inflammation, and fibrosis. Interestingly, the chronic CCl4 -induced liver injury was also characterized by mitochondrial dysfunction and dysregulation of numerous genes involved in metabolism. Most of these pathological changes were attenuated by PARP inhibitors. PARP inhibition not only prevented CCl4 -induced chronic liver inflammation and fibrosis, but was also able to reverse these pathological processes. PARP inhibitors also attenuated the development of BDL-induced hepatic fibrosis in mice. In liver biopsies of subjects with alcoholic or hepatitis B-induced cirrhosis, increased nitrative stress and PARP activation was noted. CONCLUSION:The reactive oxygen/nitrogen species-PARP pathway plays a pathogenetic role in the development of liver inflammation, metabolism, and fibrosis. PARP inhibitors are currently in clinical trials for oncological indications, and the current results indicate that liver inflammation and liver fibrosis may be additional clinical indications where PARP inhibition may be of translational potential.
