Prmt1 upregulated by Hdc deficiency aggravates acute myocardial infarction via NETosis

ABSTRACT: Neutrophils are mobilized and recruited to the injured heart after myocardial infarction, and neutrophil count has been clinically implicated to be associated with coronary disease severity. Histidine decarboxylase (HDC) has been implicated in regulating reactive oxidative species (ROS) and the differentiation of myeloid cells. However, the effect of HDC on neutrophils after myocardial infarction remains unclear. Here, we found that neutrophils were disorderly recruited into the ischemic injured area of the myocardium of Hdc deficiency (Hdc−/−) mice. Moreover, Hdc deficiency led to attenuated adhesion but enhanced migration and augmented ROS/neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) production in neutrophils. Hdc−/− mouse-derived NETs promoted cardiomyocyte death and cardiac fibroblast proliferation/migration. Furthermore, protein arginine methyltransferase 1 (PRMT1) was increased in Hdc−/− mouse-derived neutrophils but decreased with exogenous histamine treatment. Its expression could be rescued by blocking histamine receptor 1 (H1R), inhibiting ATP synthesis or reducing SWItch/sucrose non fermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex. Accordingly, histamine or MS023 treatment could decrease ROS and NETs ex vivo, and ameliorated cardiac function and fibrosis, along with the reduced NETs in plasma in vivo. Together, our findings unveil the role of HDC in NETosis by histamine–H1R–ATP–SWI/SNF–PRMT1–ROS signaling and provide new biomarkers and targets for identifying and tuning the detrimental immune state in cardiovascular disease. Graphical abstract During myocardial infarction, the deficiency of histidine decarboxylase (HDC), diminishing endogenous or exogenous histamine generation in neutrophils, aggravates cardiomyocyte death and fibrosis, by enhancing neutrophil infiltration and reactive oxidative species (ROS) dependent NETosis in a H1R–SWI/SNF–PRMT1 pathway.Image 1

Project description:Myocardial infarction (MI), the leading cause of death among patients with cardiovascular diseases, is characterized by acute cardiac muscle injury due to severe impairment of the coronary blood supply, which may lead to cardiogenic shock and cardiac arrest. Particularly interesting new cysteine histidine rich 1 (PINCH1) protein, a key component of the integrin signaling pathway, interacts with several proteins and serves a vital role in numerous cellular processes, including cytoskeleton remodeling, cell proliferation and cell migration. To investigate the role of PINCH1 in heart injury in the present study, PINCH1 was knocked out in the myocardial tissue of mice (age, 18 weeks) to induce MI. In addition, cell viability, migration and apoptosis, as well as the expression levels of NF-κB-associated proteins were determined in murine HL1 cardiomyocytes with a conditional PINCH1 shRNA using Cell Counting Kit-8, Transwell, flow cytometry and western blot assays, respectively. Furthermore, the cardiac expansion and myocardial fibrosis in PINCH1 knockout mice was investigated in vivo by performing morphological and histological examinations. Additionally, the murine ventricular myocardial ultrastructure was evaluated using an electron microscope, and the cardiomyocyte apoptotic rate and expression levels of NF-κB-related proteins were determined using TUNEL and western blot assays, respectively. The results showed that the apoptotic rate in the in vivo PINCH1 knockdown group was significantly increased. In addition, the protein expression levels of NF-κB signaling pathway-related proteins, including NF-κB, myeloid differentiation factor 88, TNF-α and caspase-3, were significantly increased in the in vivo PINCH1 knockdown group compared with the wild-type group, but the protein expression of MMP2 and MMP9 were the opposite. Overall, the in vitro and in vivo results revealed that PINCH1 knockout in mice significantly aggravated MI via the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Project description:Preclinical data suggest that an acute inflammatory response following myocardial infarction (MI) accelerates systemic atherosclerosis. Using combined positron emission and computed tomography, we investigated whether this phenomenon occurs in humans.Overall, 40 patients with MI and 40 with stable angina underwent thoracic 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose combined positron emission and computed tomography scan. Radiotracer uptake was measured in aortic atheroma and nonvascular tissue (paraspinal muscle). In 1003 patients enrolled in the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events, we assessed whether infarct size predicted early (?30 days) and late (>30 days) recurrent coronary events. Compared with patients with stable angina, patients with MI had higher aortic 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (tissue-to-background ratio 2.15±0.30 versus 1.84±0.18, P<0.0001) and plasma C-reactive protein concentrations (6.50 [2.00 to 12.75] versus 2.00 [0.50 to 4.00] mg/dL, P=0.0005) despite having similar aortic (P=0.12) and less coronary (P=0.006) atherosclerotic burden and similar paraspinal muscular 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (P=0.52). Patients with ST-segment elevation MI had larger infarcts (peak plasma troponin 32 300 [10 200 to >50 000] versus 3800 [1000 to 9200] ng/L, P<0.0001) and greater aortic 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (2.24±0.32 versus 2.02±0.21, P=0.03) than those with non-ST-segment elevation MI. Peak plasma troponin concentrations correlated with aortic 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose uptake (r=0.43, P=0.01) and, on multivariate analysis, independently predicted early (tertile 3 versus tertile 1: relative risk 4.40 [95% CI 1.90 to 10.19], P=0.001), but not late, recurrent MI.The presence and extent of MI is associated with increased aortic atherosclerotic inflammation and early recurrent MI. This finding supports the hypothesis that acute MI exacerbates systemic atherosclerotic inflammation and remote plaque destabilization: MI begets MI.URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have recently been identified as mediators in atherothrombosis. Although NETosis in general has been suggested to be glucose dependent, the transferability to patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is unclear. We assessed whether the NETs markers double-stranded deoxyribonucleid acid (dsDNA) and myeloperoxidase-DNA (MPO-DNA) associated with plasma glucose and the glucometabolic status in the acute phase and 3?months after a STEMI. We also explored whether an acute glucose load resulted in upregulated NETosis by assessment of peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4) gene expression. METHODS:In total, 224 STEMI patients were prospectively enrolled and underwent blood sampling acutely (median 16.5?h after PCI) and after 3?months. Glucometabolic status was defined based on the results of an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) as normal glucose regulation (NGR), impaired fasting glucose (IFG), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) or type 2 diabetes (T2DM). dsDNA and MPO-DNA were measured in serum, while PAD4 mRNA was measured in circulating leukocytes by RT-PCR. RESULTS:dsDNA levels were significantly correlated to plasma glucose both acutely and after 3?months (r?=?0.12 and r?=?0.17, both p?<?0.02), whereas MPO-DNA was not. No associations with the glucometabolic status were encountered for dsDNA and MPO-DNA acutely, but after 3?months dsDNA levels were elevated in patients with IFG and T2DM vs. NGR (428 vs. 371?ng/ml and 408 vs. 371?ng/ml, both p?<?0.045). During the acute glucose load after 3?months, dsDNA and MPO-DNA remained unchanged while PAD4 mRNA increased significantly (RQ 0.836 vs. 0.920, p?=?0.02). CONCLUSIONS:In this cohort of STEMI patients, levels of dsDNA associated with plasma glucose both in the acute and stable condition. The glucometabolic status was not substantially related to the selected NETs markers, however, an acute glucose load by OGTT performed after 3?months resulted in increased PAD4 expression, suggestive of enhanced NETosis in the aftermath of STEMI.
