Embryonic VHL-HIF signaling defines dynamic heart metabolic compartments essential for cardiac maturation


ABSTRACT: While gene regulatory networks involved in cardiogenesis have been characterized, the role of bioenergetics remains less studied. Here we show that until midgestation, myocardial metabolism is compartmentalized, with a glycolytic signature restricted to compact myocardium contrasting with increased mitochondrial oxidative activity in the trabeculae. HIF1a regulation mirrors this pattern, with expression predominating in compact myocardium and scarce in trabeculae. By midgestation, the compact myocardium downregulates HIF1a and switches toward oxidative metabolism. Deletion of the E3 ubiquitin ligase Vhl results in HIF1a hyperactivation, disrupting metabolic compartmentalization and blocking the midgestational shift toward oxidative phosphorylation. Moreover, the altered glycolytic signature induced by HIF1 trabecular activation precludes regulation of genes essential for cardiac conduction system establishment. Our findings reveal VHL-HIF-mediated metabolic compartmentalization in the developing heart and the connection between metabolism and myocardial differentiation. These results highlight the importance of bioenergetics in ventricular myocardium specialization and its potential relevance to congenital heart disease.
