Doxorubicin-induced carbonylation and degradation of cardiac myosin binding protein C promote cardiotoxicity.

ABSTRACT: Dose-dependent oxidative stress by the anthracycline doxorubicin (Dox) and other chemotherapeutic agents causes irreversible cardiac damage, restricting their clinical effectiveness. We hypothesized that the resultant protein oxidation could be monitored and correlated with physiological functional impairment. We focused on protein carbonylation as an indicator of severe oxidative damage because it is irreversible and results in proteasomal degradation. We identified and investigated a specific high-molecular weight cardiac protein that showed a significant increase in carbonylation under Dox-induced cardiotoxic conditions in a spontaneously hypertensive rat model. We confirmed carbonylation and degradation of this protein under oxidative stress and prevention of such effect in the presence of the iron chelator dexrazoxane. Using MS, the Dox-induced carbonylated protein was identified as the 140-kDa cardiac myosin binding protein C (MyBPC). We confirmed the carbonylation and degradation of MyBPC using HL-1 cardiomyocytes and a purified recombinant untagged cardiac MyBPC under metal-catalyzed oxidative stress conditions. The carbonylation and degradation of MyBPC were time- and drug concentration-dependent. We demonstrated that carbonylated MyBPC undergoes proteasome-mediated degradation under Dox-induced oxidative stress. Cosedimentation, immunoprecipitation, and actin binding assays were used to study the functional consequences of carbonylated MyBPC. Carbonylation of MyBPC showed significant functional impairment associated with its actin binding properties. The dissociation constant of carbonylated recombinant MyBPC for actin was 7.35 ± 1.9 ?M compared with 2.7 ± 0.6 ?M for native MyBPC. Overall, our findings indicate that MyBPC carbonylation serves as a critical determinant of cardiotoxicity and could serve as a mechanistic indicator for Dox-induced cardiotoxicity.

Project description:BackgroundInflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis contribute to the evolution of doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity. Osteocrin (OSTN) is a novel secretory peptide mainly derived from the bone and skeletal muscle, and plays critical roles in regulating bone growth and physical endurance. Inspiringly, OSTN was also reported to be abundant in the myocardium that functioned as a therapeutic agent against cardiac rupture and congestive heart failure in mice after myocardial infarction. Herein, we investigated the role and potential mechanism of OSTN in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.MethodsCardiac-restrict OSTN overexpression was performed by the intravenous injection of a cardiotropic AAV9 vector, and subsequently the mice received 15 mg/kg DOX injection (i.p., once) to induce acute cardiac injury. Besides, H9C2 cell lines were used to assess the possible role of OSTN in vitro by incubating with recombinant human OSTN or small interfering RNA against Ostn (siOstn). To clarify the involvement of protein kinase G (PKG), KT5823 and siPkg were used in vivo and in vitro. Mice were also administrated intraperitoneally with 5 mg/kg DOX weekly for consecutive 3 weeks at a cumulative dose of 15 mg/kg to mimic the cardiotoxic effects upon chronic DOX exposure.ResultsOSTN treatment notably attenuated, whereas OSTN silence exacerbated inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis in DOX-treated H9C2 cells. Besides, cardiac-restrict OSTN-overexpressed mice showed an alleviated cardiac injury and malfunction upon DOX injection. Mechanistically, we found that OSTN activated PKG, while PKG inhibition abrogated the beneficial effect of OSTN in vivo and in vitro. As expected, OSTN overexpression also improved cardiac function and survival rate in mice after chronic DOX treatment.ConclusionsOSTN protects against DOX-elicited inflammation, oxidative stress, apoptosis, and cardiac dysfunction via activating PKG, and cardiac gene therapy with OSTN provides a novel therapeutic strategy against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.
