Oxidative phosphorylation dysfunction modulates expression of extracellular matrix--remodeling genes and invasion.

ABSTRACT: A number of recent studies suggest that mitochondrial function is a player in tumor development and progression. In this study, we have used gene expression arrays to examine transcriptional differences between oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS)-competent and OXPHOS-impaired human osteosarcoma cells. Genes associated with extracellular matrix remodeling, including members of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of the MMP (TIMP) family, urokinase plasminogen activator and its inhibitor plasminogen-activator inhibitor-1 (PAI1), and CTGF and CYR61 (members of the Cysteine-rich 61, Connective Tissue Growth Factor and Nephroblastoma-overexpressed (CCN) gene family of growth regulators), were among the ones significantly altered in the OXPHOS-deficient cells. These changes were confirmed by RT-PCR and promoter reporter assays. Alterations at the protein level for some of these factors were also observed, though at a lower magnitude, with the exception of TIMP1, where a marked change in steady-state levels of the protein was observed after induction of OXPHOS dysfunction. Repopulation of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)-less cells with wild-type mtDNA reduced matrigel invasion, whereas repopulation with a mutated mtDNA did not. Taken together our data suggests that OXPHOS dysfunction modulates the invasive phenotype by transcriptional regulation of genes coding for members of the MMP/TIMP system, urokinase plasminogen activator/plasminogen-activator inhibitor I and CCN proteins.

Project description:BackgroundDiastolic dysfunction (DD) is associated with the development of heart failure and contributes to the pathogenesis of other cardiac maladies, including atrial fibrillation. Inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDACs) has been shown to prevent DD by enhancing myofibril relaxation. We addressed the therapeutic potential of HDAC inhibition in a model of established DD with preserved ejection fraction.MethodsFour weeks after uninephrectomy and implantation with deoxycorticosterone acetate pellets, when DD was clearly evident, 1 cohort of mice was administered the clinical-stage HDAC inhibitor ITF2357/Givinostat. Echocardiography, blood pressure measurements, and end point invasive hemodynamic analyses were performed. Myofibril mechanics and intact cardiomyocyte relaxation were assessed ex vivo. Cardiac fibrosis was evaluated by picrosirius red staining and second harmonic generation microscopy of left ventricle (LV) sections, RNA sequencing of LV mRNA, mass spectrometry-based evaluation of decellularized LV biopsies, and atomic force microscopy determination of LV stiffness. Mechanistic studies were performed with primary rat and human cardiac fibroblasts.ResultsHDAC inhibition normalized DD without lowering blood pressure in this model of systemic hypertension. In contrast to previous models, myofibril relaxation was unimpaired in uninephrectomy/deoxycorticosterone acetate mice. Furthermore, cardiac fibrosis was not evident in any mouse cohort on the basis of picrosirius red staining or second harmonic generation microscopy. However, mass spectrometry revealed induction in the expression of >100 extracellular matrix proteins in LVs of uninephrectomy/deoxycorticosterone acetate mice, which correlated with profound tissue stiffening based on atomic force microscopy. ITF2357/Givinostat treatment blocked extracellular matrix expansion and LV stiffening. The HDAC inhibitor was subsequently shown to suppress cardiac fibroblast activation, at least in part, by blunting recruitment of the profibrotic chromatin reader protein BRD4 (bromodomain-containing protein 4) to key gene regulatory elements.ConclusionsThese findings demonstrate the potential of HDAC inhibition as a therapeutic intervention to reverse existing DD and establish blockade of extracellular matrix remodeling as a second mechanism by which HDAC inhibitors improve ventricular filling. Our data reveal the existence of pathophysiologically relevant covert or hidden cardiac fibrosis that is below the limit of detection of histochemical stains such as picrosirius red, highlighting the need to evaluate fibrosis of the heart using diverse methodologies.
