Myocardial fatty acid uptake through CD36 is indispensable for sufficient bioenergetic metabolism to prevent progression of pressure overload-induced heart failure.

ABSTRACT: The energy metabolism of the failing heart is characterized by reduced fatty acid (FA) oxidation and an increase in glucose utilization. However, little is known about how energy metabolism-function relationship is relevant to pathophysiology of heart failure. Recent study showed that the genetic deletion of CD36 (CD36KO), which causes reduction in FA use with an increased reliance on glucose, accelerates the progression from compensated hypertrophy to heart failure. Here, we show the mechanisms by which CD36 deletion accelerates heart failure in response to pressure overload. CD36KO mice exhibited contractile dysfunction and death from heart failure with enhanced cardiac hypertrophy and interstitial fibrosis when they were subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC). The pool size in the TCA cycle and levels of high-energy phosphate were significantly reduced in CD36KO-TAC hearts despite an increase in glycolytic flux. De novo synthesis of non-essential amino acids was facilitated in CD36KO-TAC hearts, which could cause a further decline of the pool size. The ingestion of a diet enriched in medium-chain FA improved cardiac dysfunction in CD36KO-TAC hearts. These findings suggest that myocardial FA uptake through CD36 is indispensable for sufficient ATP production and for preventing an increased glycolytic flux-mediated structural remodeling during pressure overload-induced hypertrophy.

Endothelial Cell CD36 Optimizes Tissue Fatty Acid Uptake

Project description:Movement of circulating fatty acids (FAs) to parenchymal cells requires their transfer across the endothelial cell (EC) barrier. The multi-ligand receptor cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) facilitates tissue FA uptake and is expressed in ECs and parenchymal cells such as myocytes and adipocytes. Whether tissue uptake of FAs is dependent on EC or parenchymal cell CD36, or both, is unknown. Using a cell-specific deletion approach, we show that CD36-mediated FA transport across ECs rate-limits tissue FA uptake, and its loss leads to metabolic effects in parenchymal cells.

Myocardial gene expression in response to pressure overload

Project description:Myocardial deletion of klf4 sensitizes mouse to pressure overload. In order to gain a better understanding of molecular mechanisms of such alterations, we profiled gene expression before and after 3-day of pressure overload (induced by transverse aortic constriction -TAC) in the hearts from MHC-cre (Cre) control and MHC-cre-klf4-deficient (KO) mice. 10wk old male mice was subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) to induce pressure overload or sham operation as control group. After 3 days, heart was removed and total RNA was extracted from apex and subjected for array analysis. Four animals in each group.

Endothelial cell CD36 optimizes tissue fatty acid uptake.

Project description:Movement of circulating fatty acids (FAs) to parenchymal cells requires their transfer across the endothelial cell (EC) barrier. The multiligand receptor cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) facilitates tissue FA uptake and is expressed in ECs and parenchymal cells such as myocytes and adipocytes. Whether tissue uptake of FAs is dependent on EC or parenchymal cell CD36, or both, is unknown. Using a cell-specific deletion approach, we show that EC, but not parenchymal cell, CD36 deletion increased fasting plasma FAs and postprandial triglycerides. EC-Cd36-KO mice had reduced uptake of radiolabeled long-chain FAs into heart, skeletal muscle, and brown adipose tissue; these uptake studies were replicated using [11C]palmitate PET scans. High-fat diet-fed EC-CD36-deficient mice had improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity. Both EC and cardiomyocyte (CM) deletion of CD36 reduced heart lipid droplet accumulation after fasting, but CM deletion did not affect heart glucose or FA uptake. Expression in the heart of several genes modulating glucose metabolism and insulin action increased with EC-CD36 deletion but decreased with CM deletion. In conclusion, EC CD36 acts as a gatekeeper for parenchymal cell FA uptake, with important downstream effects on glucose utilization and insulin action.

CD36 facilitates fatty acid uptake by dynamic palmitoylation-regulated endocytosis.

Project description:Fatty acids (FAs) are essential nutrients, but how they are transported into cells remains unclear. Here, we show that FAs trigger caveolae-dependent CD36 internalization, which in turn delivers FAs into adipocytes. During the process, binding of FAs to CD36 activates its downstream kinase LYN, which phosphorylates DHHC5, the palmitoyl acyltransferase of CD36, at Tyr91 and inactivates it. CD36 then gets depalmitoylated by APT1 and recruits another tyrosine kinase SYK to phosphorylate JNK and VAVs to initiate endocytic uptake of FAs. Blocking CD36 internalization by inhibiting APT1, LYN or SYK abolishes CD36-dependent FA uptake. Restricting CD36 at either palmitoylated or depalmitoylated state eliminates its FA uptake activity, indicating an essential role of dynamic palmitoylation of CD36. Furthermore, blocking endocytosis by targeting LYN or SYK inhibits CD36-dependent lipid droplet growth in adipocytes and high-fat-diet induced weight gain in mice. Our study has uncovered a dynamic palmitoylation-regulated endocytic pathway to take up FAs.

Myocardial ATGL overexpression decreases the reliance on fatty acid oxidation and protects against pressure overload-induced cardiac dysfunction.

Project description:Alterations in myocardial triacylglycerol content have been associated with poor left ventricular function, suggesting that enzymes involved in myocardial triacylglycerol metabolism play an important role in regulating contractile function. Myocardial triacylglycerol catabolism is mediated by adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL), which is rate limiting for triacylglycerol hydrolysis. To address the influence of triacylglycerol hydrolysis on myocardial energy metabolism and function, we utilized mice with cardiomyocyte-specific ATGL overexpression (MHC-ATGL). Biochemical examination of MHC-ATGL hearts revealed chronically reduced myocardial triacylglycerol content but unchanged levels of long-chain acyl coenzyme A esters, ceramides, and diacylglycerols. Surprisingly, fatty acid oxidation rates were decreased in ex vivo perfused working hearts from MHC-ATGL mice, which was compensated by increased rates of glucose oxidation. Interestingly, reduced myocardial triacylglycerol content was associated with moderately enhanced in vivo systolic function in MHC-ATGL mice and increased isoproterenol-induced cell shortening of isolated primary cardiomyocytes. Most importantly, MHC-ATGL mice were protected from pressure overload-induced systolic dysfunction and detrimental structural remodeling following transverse aortic constriction. Overall, this study shows that ATGL overexpression is sufficient to alter myocardial energy metabolism and improve cardiac function.

Alpha1-adrenergic receptors prevent a maladaptive cardiac response to pressure overload.

Project description:An alpha1-adrenergic receptor (alpha1-AR) antagonist increased heart failure in the Antihypertensive and Lipid-Lowering Treatment to Prevent Heart Attack Trial (ALLHAT), but it is unknown whether this adverse result was due to alpha1-AR inhibition or a nonspecific drug effect. We studied cardiac pressure overload in mice with double KO of the 2 main alpha1-AR subtypes in the heart, alpha 1A (Adra1a) and alpha 1B (Adra1b). At 2 weeks after transverse aortic constriction (TAC), KO mouse survival was only 60% of WT, and surviving KO mice had lower ejection fractions and larger end-diastolic volumes than WT mice. Mechanistically, final heart weight and myocyte cross-sectional area were the same after TAC in KO and WT mice. However, KO hearts after TAC had increased interstitial fibrosis, increased apoptosis, and failed induction of the fetal hypertrophic genes. Before TAC, isolated KO myocytes were more susceptible to apoptosis after oxidative and beta-AR stimulation, and beta-ARs were desensitized. Thus, alpha1-AR deletion worsens dilated cardiomyopathy after pressure overload, by multiple mechanisms, indicating that alpha1-signaling is required for cardiac adaptation. These results suggest that the adverse cardiac effects of alpha1-antagonists in clinical trials are due to loss of alpha1-signaling in myocytes, emphasizing concern about clinical use of alpha1-antagonists, and point to a revised perspective on sympathetic activation in heart failure.

Loss of heat shock protein HSPA4 aggravates pressure overload-induced myocardial damage

Project description:Failure of molecular chaperones to direct the correct folding of newly synthesized proteins leads to the accumulation of misfolded proteins in cells. HSPA4 is a member of the heat shock protein 110 family (HSP110) that acts as a nucleotide exchange factor of HSP70 chaperones. We found that the expression of HSPA4 is upregulated in murine hearts subjected to pressure overload and in failing human hearts. To investigate the cardiac function of HSPA4, Hspa4 knockout (KO) mice were generated and exhibited cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. Hspa4 KO hearts were characterized by a significant increase in heart weight/body weight ratio, elevated expression of hypertrophic and fibrotic gene markers, and concentric hypertrophy with preserved contractile functions. Cardiac hypertrophy in Hspa4 KO hearts was associated with enhanced activation of gp130-STAT3, CaMKII, and calcineurin-NFAT signaling. Further analyses revealed a significant increase in cross sectional area of cardiomyocytes, and in expression levels of hypertrophic markers in cultured neonatal Hspa4 KO cardiomyocytes suggesting that the hypertrophy of mutant mice was a result of primary defects in cardiomyocytes. Gene expression profile in hearts of 3.5-week-old mice revealed a differentially expressed gene sets related to ion channels and stress response. Taken together, these results reveal that HSPA4 is implicated in protection against pressure overload-induced heart failure. Total RNA was extracted from heart ventricles of 3.5-week-old Hspa4+/+ and Hspa4-/- males (n = 3 mice for each genotype).

Osteopontin RNA aptamer can prevent and reverse pressure overload-induced heart failure.

Project description:AimsCardiac myocyte hypertrophy, the main compensatory response to chronic stress in the heart often progresses to a state of decompensation that can lead to heart failure. Osteopontin (OPN) is an effector for extracellular signalling that induces myocyte growth and fibrosis. Although increased OPN activity has been observed in stressed myocytes and fibroblasts, the detailed and long term effects of blocking OPN signalling on the heart remain poorly defined. Targeting cardiac OPN protein by an RNA aptamer may be beneficial for tuning down OPN pathologic signalling. We aimed to demonstrate the therapeutic effects of an OPN RNA aptamer on cardiac dysfunction.Methods and resultsIn vivo, we show that in a mouse model of pressure overload, treating at the time of surgeries with an OPN aptamer prevented cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and cardiac fibrosis, blocked OPN downstream signalling (PI3K and Akt phosphorylation), reduced expression of extracellular matrix (Lum, Col3a1, Fn1) and hypertrophy (Nppa, Nppb) genes, and prevented cardiac dysfunction. Treating at two months post-surgeries with the OPN aptamer reversed cardiac dysfunction and fibrosis and myocyte hypertrophy. While genetic homozygous deletion of OPN reduced myocardial wall thickness, surprisingly cardiac function and myocardial fibrosis, specifically collagen deposition and myofibroblast infiltration, were worse compared with wild type mice at three months of pressure overload.ConclusionTaken together, these data demonstrate that tuning down cardiac OPN signalling by an OPN RNA aptamer is a novel and effective approach for preventing cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, improving cardiac function, and reversing pressure overload-induced heart failure.
