Project description:Background Chronic sustained pressure overload induces cardiac remodeling, which often leads to heart failure. Cardiac macrophages (cMacs) are heterogeneous cell populations, and their elimination has been shown to exacerbate pressure overload-induced heart failure. CD163, a macrophage-specific scavenger receptor expressed in a subset of cMacs, has been linked to cardiovascular events through its serum soluble form. This study aimed to elucidate the functional role of the CD163+ cMacs subset in pressure overload-induced heart failure. Methods Transverse aortic constriction (TAC) was performed on wild-type and CD163-deficient (Cd163-/-) mice to investigate the role of CD163 in pressure overload-induced cardiac remodeling and heart failure. Echocardiography was used to assess heart structure and function. Transcriptomic analysis and transmission electron microscopy were employed to observe mitochondrial structure in cardiomyocytes. Flow cytometry was used to quantify cMacs and cytokine-expressing cMacs in the heart. Additionally, serum samples from hypertensive patients with and without heart failure were analyzed to explore the relationship between CD163 and heart failure. Results TAC-induced left ventricular systolic dysfunction, including reduced ejection fraction and fractional shortening, was significantly aggravated in Cd163-/- mice post-surgery. Genes differentially expressed due to CD163 deficiency were enriched in pathways related to mitochondrial bioenergetics and homeostasis. Transmission electron microscopy revealed an increase in dysfunctional mitochondria in cardiomyocytes of Cd163-/- mice post-TAC. Additionally, decreased serum interleukin (IL)-10 levels and reduced IL-10 expression in cMacs were observed in Cd163-/- mice post-TAC. IL-10 supplementation significantly reversed TAC-induced reductions in left ventricular systolic function and improved mitochondrial bioenergetics and homeostasis in Cd163-/- mice. Conclusions The protective functions of CD163 in cMacs are associated with IL-10 expression during pressure overload-induced heart failure.
