Formyl peptide receptor 2 determines sex differences in pulmonary hypertension-associated right ventricular dysfunction

ABSTRACT: Aims Pulmonary hypertension (PH) involves structural and functional changes in pulmonary vessels due to various diseases, leading to increased vascular resistance and arterial pressure. Prolonged high load gradually enlarges the right ventricle, potentially leading to right heart failure. Female patients exhibit a more favorable prognosis due to the cardioprotective effect. Formyl peptide receptor 2 (FPR2) appears to be crucial in these processes. Methods and results Here we show that FPR2 mediates sex-specific responses to SuHx（sugen5416 combined hypoxia）-induced PH in mice. Elevated RVSP and pulmonary artery remodeling were induced in both sexes during SuHx exposure, but compared with females, male mice had more severe right ventricular dysfunction (RVD). FPR2 was more highly expressed in healthy right heart from females than males, and Fpr2 deletion exacerbated RVD in SuHx-induced PH in female mice. We also found that FPR2 mediates the cardioprotective effect of estradiol in mice with PH. Data from our transcriptomics experiment further demonstrated FPR2 mediates these effects by affecting mitochondrial function and cytokines secretion from cardiomyocytes. Conclusion We demonstrate that FPR2 play an important role in mediating sex-specific responses to SuHx, thereby identifying a potential novel therapeutic target for optimizing treatment of PH and associated right heart failure.

A Potential Diagnostic Biomarker in Pulmonary Hypertension

Project description:Right heart failure results from advanced pulmonary hypertension (PH) and has a poor prognosis. There are few available treatments for right heart failure. Pulmonary artery remodeling, including changes in pulmonary artery endothelial cells to endothelial-mesenchymal cells, and aberrant fibroblast and pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) proliferation, are characteristics of the pathophysiological process of PH. As a result, the clinical situation requires novel PH diagnostic and treatment targets.

Deep phenotyping the right ventricle to establish translational MRI biomarkers for characterization of adaptive and maladaptive states in pulmonary hypertension

Project description:We performed molecular phenotyping of RV remodelling in pulmonary hypertension (PH), using transcriptome analysis of RV tissue obtained from SuHx-induced male rats.When compared to human RV decompensated PH, the molecular characterisation of these rats showed that ECM and collagen fibrillar organisation were highly upregulated in SuHx rats and human profiles along with responses to cytokines. Moreover, growth differential factor was found common in SuHx and RV human samples.

Proteomic analysis of right-ventricular dysfunction (RVD) in patients with advanced chronic heart failure.

Project description:This research aimed to identify protein biomarkers of right ventricular dysfunction in patients with advanced heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Samples of myocardium from both, right and left ventricles (RV, LV) were obtained from 10 HFrEF patients with right ventricular dysfunction (RVD), 10 HFrEF patients without RVD (noRVD) undergoing heart transplantation, and 10 non-failing unused donor hearts (Control). Tissue samples were homogenized and extracted using mild Triton X-100 detergent and processed by SP3 extraction to remove the detergent prior the analysis, (LFQ) proteomic analysis identified a total of 4 032 proteins in the left ventricle and 3 788 proteins in the right ventricle.

IL-6/gp130 signaling in CD4+ T cells drives the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by stenosis and occlusions of small pulmonary arteries, leading to elevated pulmonary arterial pressure and right heart failure. Although accumulating evidence shows the importance of interleukin (IL)-6 in the pathogenesis of PAH, the target cells of IL-6 are poorly understood. Using mice harboring the floxed allele of gp130, a subunit of IL-6 receptor, we found substantial Cre recombination in all hematopoietic cell lineages from the primitive hematopoietic stem cell level in SM22α-Cre mice. We also revealed that a CD4+ cell-specific gp130 deletion ameliorated the phenotype of hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension in mice. Disruption of IL-6 signaling via deletion of gp130 in CD4+ T cells inhibited phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and suppressed the hypoxia-induced increase in T helper 17 cells. To further examine the role of IL-6/gp130 signaling in more severe PH models, we developed Il6 knockout (KO) rats using the CRISPR/Cas9 system and showed that IL-6 deficiency could improve the pathophysiology in hypoxia-, monocrotaline-, and Sugen5416/hypoxia (SuHx)-induced rat PH models. Phosphorylation of STAT3 in CD4+ cells was also observed around the vascular lesions in the lungs of SuHx rat model, but not in Il6 KO rats. Blockade of IL-6 signaling had an additive effect on conventional PAH therapeutics, such as endothelin receptor antagonist (macitentan) and soluble guanylyl cyclase stimulator (BAY41-2272). These findings suggest that IL-6/gp130 signaling in CD4+ cells plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of PAH.

Parathyroid hormone exacerbates pulmonary hypertension through hypoxia-induced parathyroid hormone receptor upregulation.

Project description:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an incurable right heart failure disease. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is secreted from the parathyroid gland and plays a crucial role in calcium homeostasis. PTH also acts on the cardiovascular system and affects cardiovascular prognosis. We assessed whether the regulation of PTH affected PH in a hypoxia (Hx)-induced PH mouse model. PTH treatment exacerbated right ventricular hypertrophy and right ventricular systolic pressure in Hx mice. Our data showed how is PTH effected for PH model murine lung.

Reverse Remodelling of the Lung Vasculature after Hypoxia

Project description:Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a life-threatening disease, characterized by excessive pulmonary vascular remodeling, leading to elevated pulmonary arterial pressure and right heart hypertrophy. PH is caused, among other factors, by chronic hypoxia, leading to hyper-proliferation of pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMC) and apoptosis-resistant pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVEC). Upon re-exposure to normoxia, chronic hypoxia-induced PH in mice is reversible. In this study, we aim to identify novel candidate genes involved in pulmonary vascular remodeling specifically in the pulmonary vasculature.

Plasma proteomics in pig models of pulmonary hypertension

Project description:The objective of this project is to identify relevant mechanisms associated to maladaptive right ventricular hypertrophy (RV) in pulmonary hypertension (PH), beyond pressure overload. For that, we analyzed plasma samples from PH pig models by high-throughput proteomics. Four different experimental models in 48 Yucatan pigs were developed: chronic postcapillary PH by pulmonary vein banding (M1); chronic PH by aorto-pulmonary shunting (M2); RV pressure overload by pulmonary artery banding, thus without PH (M3); and a sham procedure (M0). Animals were evaluated at months 1, and 8 after surgery with right heart catheterization, cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), and blood sampling, and myocardial tissue was analyzed with histology and molecular biology. Unbiased proteomic and metabolomic analyses were performed and compared among experimental groups and related to the severity of PH and RV dysfunction through integrative interactome networking.

Single-Cell and Spatial Transcriptomics Identified Fatty Acid–Binding Proteins Controlling Endothelial Glycolytic and Arterial Programming in Pulmonary Hypertension

Project description:Rationale: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a devastating disease characterized by obliterative vascular remodeling and persistent increase of vascular resistance, leading to right heart failure and premature death. Understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms will help develop novel therapeutic approaches for PAH patients. Objectives: To determine whether upregulation of fatty-acid binding protein 4 and 5 (FABP4/5) is critical in pathogenesis of PAH. Methods: FABP4/5 expression was examined in pulmonary arterial endothelial cells (PAECs) and lung tissues from patients with idiopathic PAH and pulmonary hypertension (PH) rat models. Plasma proteome analysis was performed in human PAH samples. Echocardiography, hemodynamics, histology, and immunostaining were performed to evaluate the lung and heart PH phenotypes in Egln1Tie2Cre (CKO) mice and Egln1Tie2Cre/Fabp4-5-/- (TKO) mice. Measurement and Main Results: Both FABP4 and FABP5 were highly induced in ECs of CKO mice and PAECs from IPAH patients, and in whole lungs of PH rats. Plasma levels of FABP4/5 were upregulated in IPAH patients and directly correlated with severity of hemodynamics and biochemical parameters. Genetic deletion of both Fabp4 and 5 in CKO mice caused a reduction of right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) and RV hypertrophy, attenuated pulmonary vascular remodeling and prevented the right heart failure. Fabp4/5 deletion also normalized EC glycolysis, reduced ROS and HIF-2a expression, and decreased aberrant EC proliferation in CKO lungs. Conclusions: PH causes aberrant expression of FABP4/5 in pulmonary ECs which leads to enhanced EC glycolysis and hyperproliferation, contributing to the accumulation of arterial ECs and vascular remodeling and exacerbating the disease.

Wipi1 is a Genetic Hub that Mediates Right Ventricular Failure

Project description:Right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) independently predicts worse outcomes in both heart failure (HF) and pulmonary hypertension (PH), irrespective of their etiologies. Yet no evidence-based therapies exist for RVD and progression towards RV failure (RVF) can occur in spite of optimal medical treatment of HF or PH. This disparity reflects our insufficient understanding of the molecular pathophysiology of RVF. To identify molecular mechanisms that may uniquely underlie RVF, we investigated the cardiac ventricular transcriptome of advanced HF patients, with and without RVF. Using weighted gene co-expression network and module-phenotype analyses, we identified a 279-member gene module that correlated significantly and specifically with RVF. Within this module, WIPI1 served as a genetic hub, HSPB6, SNAP47, and MAP4 as drivers, and PRDX5 as a repressor of RVF. We subsequently confirmed the ventricular specificity and temporal relationship of Wipi1, Hspb6, and Map4 transcript expression changes in murine models of pressure overload induced RV failure versus LV failure and subsequently uncovered differential dysregulation of autophagy in the failing RV versus the failing LV, namely a shift towards excessive non-canonical, Beclin1-independent, Wipi1/LC3II-mediated autophagy in RVF. In vitro siRNA silencing of Wipi1 partially protected isolated neonatal rat ventricular cardiac myocytes against aldosterone-induced failing phenotype. Moreover, silencing Wipi1 blunted mitochondrial superoxide production and limited non-canonical autophagy in this in vitro RVF model. Our findings suggest that Wipi1 regulates mitochondrial oxidative signaling and autophagy in cardiac myocytes. Inhibition of Wipi1 may hold promise as a therapeutic target for RVF.
