?₃-Adrenoceptor redistribution impairs NO/cGMP/PDE2 signalling in failing cardiomyocytes.

ABSTRACT: Cardiomyocyte ?₃-adrenoceptors (?₃-ARs) coupled to soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)-dependent production of the second messenger 3',5'-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) have been shown to protect from heart failure. However, the exact localization of these receptors to fine membrane structures and subcellular compartmentation of ?₃-AR/cGMP signals underpinning this protection in health and disease remain elusive. Here, we used a Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET)-based cGMP biosensor combined with scanning ion conductance microscopy (SICM) to show that functional ?₃-ARs are mostly confined to the T-tubules of healthy rat cardiomyocytes. Heart failure, induced via myocardial infarction, causes a decrease of the cGMP levels generated by these receptors and a change of subcellular cGMP compartmentation. Furthermore, attenuated cGMP signals led to impaired phosphodiesterase two dependent negative cGMP-to-cAMP cross-talk. In conclusion, topographic and functional reorganization of the ?₃-AR/cGMP signalosome happens in heart failure and should be considered when designing new therapies acting via this receptor.

Project description:This study investigated the hypothesis whether S100A1 gene therapy can improve pathological key features in human failing ventricular cardiomyocytes (HFCMs).Depletion of the Ca²?-sensor protein S100A1 drives deterioration of cardiac performance toward heart failure (HF) in experimental animal models. Targeted repair of this molecular defect by cardiac-specific S100A1 gene therapy rescued cardiac performance, raising the immanent question of its effects in human failing myocardium.Enzymatically isolated HFCMs from hearts with severe systolic HF were subjected to S100A1 and control adenoviral gene transfer and contractile performance, calcium handling, signaling, and energy homeostasis were analyzed by video-edge-detection, FURA2-based epifluorescent microscopy, phosphorylation site-specific antibodies, and mitochondrial assays, respectively.Genetically targeted therapy employing the human S100A1 cDNA normalized decreased S100A1 protein levels in HFCMs, reversed both contractile dysfunction and negative force-frequency relationship, and improved contractile reserve under beta-adrenergic receptor (?-AR) stimulation independent of cAMP-dependent (PKA) and calmodulin-dependent (CaMKII) kinase activity. S100A1 reversed underlying Ca²? handling abnormalities basally and under ?-AR stimulation shown by improved SR Ca²? handling, intracellular Ca²? transients, diastolic Ca²? overload, and diminished susceptibility to arrhythmogenic SR Ca²? leak, respectively. Moreover, S100A1 ameliorated compromised mitochondrial function and restored the phosphocreatine/adenosine-triphosphate ratio.Our results demonstrate for the first time the therapeutic efficacy of genetically reconstituted S100A1 protein levels in HFCMs by reversing pathophysiological features that characterize human failing myocardium. Our findings close a gap in our understanding of S100A1's effects in human cardiomyocytes and strengthen the rationale for future molecular-guided therapy of human HF.

Project description:BackgroundMyocardial delivery of non-excitable cells-namely human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and c-kit+ cardiac interstitial cells (hCICs)-remains a promising approach for treating the failing heart. Recent empirical studies attempt to improve such therapies by genetically engineering cells to express specific ion channels, or by creating hybrid cells with combined channel expression. This study uses a computational modeling approach to test the hypothesis that custom hypothetical cells can be rationally designed to restore a healthy phenotype when coupled to human heart failure (HF) cardiomyocytes.MethodsCandidate custom cells were simulated with a combination of ion channels from non-excitable cells and healthy human cardiomyocytes (hCMs). Using a genetic algorithm-based optimization approach, candidate cells were accepted if a root mean square error (RMSE) of less than 50% relative to healthy hCM was achieved for both action potential and calcium transient waveforms for the cell-treated HF cardiomyocyte, normalized to the untreated HF cardiomyocyte.ResultsCustom cells expressing only non-excitable ion channels were inadequate to restore a healthy cardiac phenotype when coupled to either fibrotic or non-fibrotic HF cardiomyocytes. In contrast, custom cells also expressing cardiac ion channels led to acceptable restoration of a healthy cardiomyocyte phenotype when coupled to fibrotic, but not non-fibrotic, HF cardiomyocytes. Incorporating the cardiomyocyte inward rectifier K+ channel was critical to accomplishing this phenotypic rescue while also improving single-cell action potential metrics associated with arrhythmias, namely resting membrane potential and action potential duration. The computational approach also provided insight into the rescue mechanisms, whereby heterocellular coupling enhanced cardiomyocyte L-type calcium current and promoted calcium-induced calcium release. Finally, as a therapeutically translatable strategy, we simulated delivery of hMSCs and hCICs genetically engineered to express the cardiomyocyte inward rectifier K+ channel, which decreased action potential and calcium transient RMSEs by at least 24% relative to control hMSCs and hCICs, with more favorable single-cell arrhythmia metrics.ConclusionComputational modeling facilitates exploration of customizable engineered cell therapies. Optimized cells expressing cardiac ion channels restored healthy action potential and calcium handling phenotypes in fibrotic HF cardiomyocytes and improved single-cell arrhythmia metrics, warranting further experimental validation studies of the proposed custom therapeutic cells.
