Cardiac adaptation to endurance exercise training requires suppression of GDF15 via PGC-1α

ABSTRACT: Endurance exercise promotes adaptive growth and improved function of cardiomyocytes, which is supported by increased mitochondrial activity. In skeletal muscle, these benefits are coordinated by the transcriptional protein peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha (PGC-1α). The importance of PGC-1α to exercise-induced adaptations in the heart has been unclear. Here, we show that deleting PGC-1α specifically in cardiomyocytes prevents the expected benefits from exercise and instead confers heart failure after just six weeks of training. Supporting this, rare genetic variants in the human PPARGC1A gene, which encodes PGC-1α, are associated with risk of heart failure in the UK Biobank. We identify the stress-induced cytokine growth-differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) as a key factor increased in PGC-1α–deficient hearts that contributes to this dysfunction. Blocking cardiac Gdf15 expression improves cardiac performance and exercise capacity in these mice. Finally, in human heart tissue, lower cardiomyocyte PGC-1α expression is associated with higher GDF15 and with fewer cardiomyocytes. These findings implicate a crucial role for cardiomyocyte PGC-1α in enabling healthy heart adaptation to exercise in part through suppression of GDF15.

GDF15 antagonism limits severe heart failure and prevents cardiac cachexia in mice

Project description:Heart failure and associated cachexia is an unresolved and important problem. We report a new model of severe heart failure that consistently results in cachexia. Mice lacking the integrated stress response (ISR) induced eIF2α phosphatase, PPP1R15A, exhibit a dilated cardiomyopathy and severe weight loss following irradiation, whilst wildtype mice are unaffected. This is associated with increased expression of Gdf15 in the heart and increased levels of GDF15 in the circulation. We provide evidence that blockade of GDF15 activity prevents cachexia and slows the progression of heart failure. Our data suggests that cardiac stress mediates a GDF15 dependent pathway that drives weight loss and worsens cardiac function. We show relevance of GDF15 to lean mass and protein intake with patients with heart failure. Blockade of GDF15 could constitute a novel therapeutic option to limit cardiac cachexia and improve clinical outcomes in patients with severe systolic heart failure.

Transcription profiling of hearts from mice heterozygous for Gata4 mutation (G4D) to investigate the significance of Gata4 in regulating postnatal heart function and in regulating the hypertrophic response of the heart to pathological stress.

Project description:An important event in the pathogenesis of heart failure is the development of pathological cardiac hypertrophy. In cultured cardiac cardiomyocytes, the transcription factor Gata4 is required for agonist-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. We hypothesized that in the intact organism Gata4 is an important regulator of postnatal heart function and of the hypertrophic response of the heart to pathological stress. To test this hypothesis, we studied mice heterozygous for deletion of the second exon of Gata4 (G4D). At baseline, G4D mice had mild systolic and diastolic dysfunction associated with reduced heart weight and decreased cardiomyocyte number. After transverse aortic constriction (TAC), G4D mice developed overt heart failure and eccentric cardiac hypertrophy, associated with significantly increased fibrosis and cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Inhibition of apoptosis by overexpression of the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor prevented TAC-induced heart failure in G4D mice. Unlike WT-TAC controls, G4D-TAC cardiomyocytes hypertrophied by increasing in length more than width. Gene expression profiling revealed upregulation of genes associated with apoptosis and fibrosis, including members of the TGF? pathway. Our data demonstrate that Gata4 is essential for cardiac function in the postnatal heart. After pressure overload, Gata4 regulates the pattern of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and protects the heart from load-induced failure. Experiment Overall Design: We reasoned that if Gata4 was a crucial regulator of pathways necessary for cardiac hypertrophy, then modest reductions of Gata4 activity should result in an observable cardiac phenotype. To test this hypothesis, we used gene targeted mice that express reduced levels of Gata4. We characterized these mice at baseline and after pressure Experiment Overall Design: overload.

lncExACT1 and DCHS2 Regulate Physiological and Pathological Cardiac Growth

Project description:The heart grows in response to pathological and physiological stimuli, while the former often precedes cardiomyocyte loss and heart failure, the latter paradoxically protects the heart and enhances cardiomyogenesis. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important in cardiac development and disease, less is known about their roles in physiological hypertrophy or cardiomyogenesis. The purpose of this study was to compare transcriptome profilings in exercise-induced physiological cardiac growth and stress-induced pathological cardiac growth. We identified a set of lncRNAs called long noncoding exercise associated cardiac transcripts (lncExACT). One of them, lncExACT1, whose cardiac expression was downregulated after exercise but upregulated after transverse aortic constriction. Inhibition of lncExACT1 induced physiolgoical cardiac growth while overexpression of lncExACT1 induced pathological hypertrophy and heart failure.

Cardiac fibroblasts regulate the development of heart failure via Htra3-TGF-β-IGFBP7 axis

Project description:Tissue fibrosis and organ dysfunction are hallmarks of age-related diseases including heart failure, but it remains elusive whether there is a common pathway to induce both events. Through single-cell RNA-seq, spatial transcriptomics, and genetic perturbation, we elucidate that high-temperature requirement A serine peptidase 3 (Htra3) is a critical regulator of cardiac fibrosis and heart failure by maintaining the identity of quiescent cardiac fibroblasts through degrading transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). Pressure overload downregulates expression of Htra3 in cardiac fibroblasts and activated TGF-β signaling, which induces not only cardiac fibrosis but also heart failure through DNA damage accumulation and secretory phenotype induction in failing cardiomyocytes. Overexpression of Htra3 in the heart inhibits TGF-β signaling and ameliorates cardiac dysfunction after pressure overload. Htra3-regulated induction of spatio-temporal cardiac fibrosis and cardiomyocyte secretory phenotype are observed specifically in infarct regions after myocardial infarction. Integrative analyses of single-cardiomyocyte transcriptome and plasma proteome in human reveal that IGFBP7, which is a cytokine downstream of TGF-β and secreted from failing cardiomyocytes, is the most predictable marker of advanced heart failure. These findings highlight the roles of cardiac fibroblasts in regulating cardiomyocyte homeostasis and cardiac fibrosis through the Htra3-TGF-β-IGFBP7 pathway, which would be a therapeutic target for heart failure.

Cardiomyocyte gene programs encoding morphological and functional signatures in cardiac hypertrophy and failure (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Pressure overload induces a transition from cardiac hypertrophy to heart failure, but its underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Here we reconstruct a trajectory of cardiomyocyte remodeling and clarify distinct cardiomyocyte gene programs encoding morphological and functional signatures in cardiac hypertrophy and failure, by integrating single-cardiomyocyte transcriptome with cell morphology, epigenomic state and heart function. During early hypertrophy, cardiomyocytes activate mitochondrial translation/metabolism genes, whose expression is correlated with cell size and linked to ERK1/2 and NRF1/2 transcriptional networks. Persistent overload leads to a bifurcation into adaptive and failing cardiomyocytes, and p53 signaling is specifically activated in late hypertrophy. Cardiomyocyte-specific p53 deletion shows that cardiomyocyte remodeling is initiated by p53-independent mitochondrial activation and morphological hypertrophy, followed by p53-dependent mitochondrial inhibition, morphological elongation, and heart failure gene program activation. Human single-cardiomyocyte analysis validates the conservation of the pathogenic transcriptional signatures. Collectively, cardiomyocyte identity is encoded in transcriptional programs that orchestrate morphological and functional phenotypes.

Murine neonatal cardiac B cells promote cardiomyocyte proliferation and heart regeneration

Project description:Since the proliferative capacity of cardiomyocytes is extremely limited in the adult mammalian hearts, the irreversible loss of cardiomyocytes following cardiac injury markedly reduces cardiac function, leading to cardiac remodeling and heart failure. However, the early neonatal mice have a strong ability in cardiomyocyte proliferation and cardiac regeneration after heart damage such as apical resection. Besides of cardiomyocytes, non-myocytes in heart tissue also play important roles in the regeneration process. Previous studies showed that cardiac macrophages, regulatory T cells and CD4+ T cells are all involved in regulating the myocardial regeneration process. However, the roles of other cardiac immune cells in cardiac regeneration remains to be elucidated. B cells is a prominent immune cell in injured heart; here we discovered the indispensable function of cardiac B cells in improving cardiomyocyte proliferation and heart regeneration in neonatal mice.

Title Page Cardiac Gene Therapy Rescues Diabetic Cardiomyopathy and Lowers Blood Glucose

Project description:Diabetic cardiomyopathy, an increasingly global epidemic and a major cause of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), is associated with hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, and intra-cardiomyocyte calcium mishandling. Here we identify that, in db/db mice with type 2 diabetes induced HFpEF, abnormal remodeling of cardiomyocyte transverse-tubule microdomains occurs with downregulation of the membrane scaffolding protein cardiac bridging integrator 1 (cBIN1). Transduction of cBIN1 by AAV9 gene therapy can restore transverse-tubule microdomains to normalize intracellular distribution of calcium handling proteins and, surprisingly, glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4). Cardiac proteomics revealed that AAV9-cBIN1 normalizes components of calcium handling and GLUT4 translocation machineries. Functional studies further identified that AAV9-cBIN1 normalizes insulin-dependent glucose uptake in diabetic cardiomyocytes. Phenotypically, AAV9-cBIN1 rescues cardiac lusitropy, improves exercise intolerance, and ameliorates hyperglycemia in diabetic mice. Restoration of transverse-tubule microdomains can improve cardiac function in the setting of diabetic cardiomyopathy, and also improve systemic glycemic control.
