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.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Cardiac hypertrophy compensates for increased biomechanical stress of the heart induced by prevalent cardiovascular pathologies, but can result in cardiac failure if left untreated. We hypothesized that the tail-anchored protein Dysferlin with multiple Ca2+-binding C2-domains is critical for the integrity of the transverse-axial tubule (TAT) network inside cardiomyocytes, and contributes to the proliferation of TAT endomembranes during pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy. OBJECTIVE: To reveal the impact of the membrane fusion and repair protein Dysferlin on TAT network stabilization and proliferation necessary for the hypertrophic growth of cardiomyocytes. METHODS AND RESULTS: Super-resolution light and electron microscopy of mouse cardiomyocytes identified a specific localization of Dysferlin in a vesicular compartment in nanometric proximity to contact sites of the TAT network with the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), a.k.a. junctional complexes for Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release. Mass spectrometry was used to characterize the cardiac Dysferlin interactome, thereby identifying a novel protein interaction with the membrane-tethering SR protein Juncophilin-2, a known interactor of L-type Ca2+ channels and Ryanodine Receptor Ca2+ release channels in junctional complexes. While the Dysferlin knockout caused a mild progressive phenotype of dilated cardiomyopathy in the mouse heart, global proteome analysis revealed changes preceding systolic failure. Following transverse aortic constriction (TAC), Dysferlin protein expression was significantly increased in hypertrophied wild-type myocardium, while Dysferlin knockout animals presented markedly reduced left-ventricular hypertrophy. Live-cell membrane imaging demonstrated a profound reorganization of the TAT network in wild-type left-ventricular myocytes post-TAC with robust proliferation of axial tubules, which critically depended on the increased expression of Dysferlin within newly-emerging tubule components. CONCLUSIONS: Dysferlin represents a new molecular target in cardiac disease that protects the integrity of tubule-SR junctional complexes for regulated excitation-contraction coupling, and controls TAT network reorganization and tubular membrane proliferation in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by pressure-overload.
