Proteome modulation in H9c2 cardiac cells by microRNAs miR-378 and miR-378.

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs are a novel class of powerful endogenous regulators of gene expression. MiR-378 and miR-378* are localized in the first intron of the Ppargc1b gene that codes the transcriptional co-activator PGC-1?. The latter regulates energy expenditure as well as mitochondrial biogenesis. The miR-378:miR-378* hairpin is highly expressed in cardiac cells. To better assess their role in cardiomyocytes, we identified miR-378 and miR-378* targets via a proteomic screen. We established H9c2 cellular models of overexpression of miR-378 and miR-378* and identified a total of 86 down-regulated proteins in the presence of either one of these miRs. Functional annotation clustering showed that miR-378 and miR-378* regulate related pathways in cardiomyocytes, including energy metabolism, notably glycolysis, cytoskeleton, notably actin filaments and muscle contraction. Using bioinformatics algorithms we found that 20 proteins were predicted as direct targets of the miRs. We validated eight of these targets by quantitative RT-PCR and luciferase reporter assay. We found that miR-378 targets lactate dehydrogenase A and impacts on cell proliferation and survival whereas miR-378* targets cytoskeleton proteins actin and vimentin. Proteins involved in endoplasmic reticulum stress response such as chaperone and/or calcium buffering proteins GRP78, PPIA (cyclophilin A), calumenin, and GMMPA involved in glycosylation are repressed by these miRs. Our results show that the miR-378/378* hairpin establishes a connection among energy metabolism, cytoskeleton remodeling, and endoplasmic reticulum function through post-transcriptional regulation of key proteins involved in theses pathways.

MicroRNAs are a novel class of powerful endogenous regulators of gene expression. MiR-378 and miR-378* are localized in the first intron of the Ppargc1b gene that codes the transcriptional co-activator PGC-1β. The latter regulates energy expenditure as well as mitochondrial biogenesis. The miR-378:miR-378* hairpin is highly expressed in cardiac cells. To better assess their role in cardiomyocytes, we identified miR-378 and miR-378* targets via a proteomic screen. We established H9c2 cellular mod ...[more]

Project description:In the heart tissue of acutely Trypanosoma cruzi-infected mice miR-145-5p and miR-146b-5p are, respectively, downregulated and upregulated. Here, we used the H9C2 rat cardiomyoblast cell line infected with the Colombian T. cruzi strain to investigate the parasite-host cell interplay, focusing on the regulation of miR-145-5p and miR-146b-5p expression. Next, we explored the effects of interventions with the trypanosomicidal drug Benznidazole (Bz) alone or combined with Pentoxifylline (PTX), a methylxanthine derivative shown to modulate immunological and cardiac abnormalities in a model of chronic chagasic cardiomyopathy, on parasite load and expression of miR-145-5p and miR-146b-5p. The infection of H9C2 cells with trypomastigote forms allowed parasite cycle with intracellular forms multiplication and trypomastigote release. After 48 and 144 h of infection, upregulation of miR-145-5p (24 h: 2.38 ± 0.26; 48 h: 3.15 ± 0.9-fold change) and miR-146b-5b (24 h: 2.60 ± 0.46; 48 h: 2.97 ± 0.23-fold change) was detected. The peak of both miRNA levels paralleled with release of trypomastigote forms. Addition of 3 µM and 10 µM of Bz 48 h after infection reduced parasite load but did not interfere with miR-145-5p and miR-146b-5p levels. Addition of PTX did not interfere with Bz-induced parasite control efficacy. Conversely, combined Bz + PTX treatment decreased the levels of both microRNAs, resembling the expression levels detected in non-infected H9C2 cells. Moreover, the use of miR-145-5p and miR-146b-5p mimic/inhibitor systems before infection of H9C2 cells decreased parasite load, 72 h postinfection. When H9C2 cells were treated with miR-145-5p and miR-146b-5p mimic/inhibitor 48 h after infection, all the used systems, except the miR-146b-5p inhibitor, reduced parasite load. Altogether, our data indicate that these microRNAs putatively control signaling pathways crucial for parasite-host cell interaction. Thus, miR-145-5p and miR-146b-5p deserve to be further investigated as biomarkers of parasite control and tools to identify therapeutic adjuvants to etiological treatment in Chagas disease.

Project description:Cardiolipin and phosphatidylglycerol biosynthesis were examined in H9c2 cells incubated with short-chain ceramides. Incubation of cells with N-acetylsphingosine or N-hexanoylsphingosine stimulated [1, 3-3H]glycerol incorporation into phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin, with N-acetylsphingosine having the greater effect. The mechanism for the ceramide-mediated stimulation of de novo phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin biosynthesis appeared to be an increase in the activity of phosphatidylglycerolphosphate synthase, the committed step of phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin biosynthesis. The presence of the potent protein phosphatase inhibitors calyculin A or okadaic acid attenuated the N-acetylsphingosine-mediated stimulation of phosphatidylglycerolphosphate synthase activity and of phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin biosynthesis, indicating the involvement of a ceramide-activated protein phosphatase(s). The presence of 8-(4-chlorophenylthio)-cAMP (CPT-cAMP) stimulated enzyme activity and [1,3-3H]glycerol incorporation into phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin. The effects of CPT-cAMP and N-acetylsphingosine on phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin biosynthesis and on phosphatidylglycerolphosphate synthase activity were additive. Phosphatidylglycerol biosynthesis from sn-[14C]glycerol 3-phosphate in permeabilized H9c2 cells was stimulated by preincubation with N-acetylsphingosine, and this was attenuated by okadaic acid. N-Acetylsphingosine treatment of cells elevated mitochondrial phospholipase A2 activity. Since the pool sizes of phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin were unaltered in these cells, the observed increase in phosphatidylglycerolphosphate synthase activity may be a compensatory mechanism for the N-acetylsphingosine-mediated elevation of mitochondrial phospholipase A2 activity. Finally, addition of tumour necrosis factor alpha to H9c2 cells resulted in an elevation of both phosphatidylglycerolphosphate synthase and phospholipase A2 activities. The results suggest that phosphatidylglycerol and cardiolipin metabolism in H9c2 cells may be regulated by intracellular ceramide signalling.
