Histone Deacetylase 1 Depletion Activates Human Cardiac Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Proangiogenic Paracrine Signaling Through a Mechanism Requiring Enhanced Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor Synthesis and Secretion.

ABSTRACT: Cardiac mesenchymal cell (CMC) administration improves cardiac function in animal models of heart failure. Although the precise mechanisms remain unclear, transdifferentiation and paracrine signaling are suggested to underlie their cardiac reparative effects. We have shown that histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) inhibition enhances CMC cardiomyogenic lineage commitment. Here, we investigated the impact of HDAC1 on CMC cytokine secretion and associated paracrine-mediated activities on endothelial cell function. CMCs were transduced with shRNA constructs targeting HDAC1 (shHDAC1) or nontarget (shNT) control. Cytokine arrays were used to assess the expression of secreted proteins in conditioned medium (CM) from shHDAC1 or shNT-transduced CMCs. In vitro functional assays for cell proliferation, pro
