Nicotinamide for the treatment of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

ABSTRACT: Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a highly prevalent and intractable form of cardiac decompensation commonly associated with diastolic dysfunction. Here, we show that diastolic dysfunction in patients with HFpEF is associated with a cardiac deficit in nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+). Elevating NAD+ by oral supplementation of its precursor, nicotinamide, improved diastolic dysfunction induced by aging (in 2-year-old C57BL/6J mice), hypertension (in Dahl salt-sensitive rats) or cardiometabolic syndrome (in ZSF1 obese rats). Mechanistically, this effect was mediated partly through alleviated systemic comorbidities and enhanced myocardial bioenergetics, as evidenced by cardiac trasncriptome and metabolome analyses. Simultaneously, nicotinamide directly improved cardiomyocyte passive stiffness and calcium-dependent active relaxation through increased deacetylation of titin and the sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2a, respectively. In a long-term human cohort study, high dietary intake of naturally occurring NAD+ precursors was associated with lower blood pressure and reduced risk of cardiac mortality. Collectively, these results suggest NAD+ precursors, and especially nicotinamide, as potential therapeutic agents to treat diastolic dysfunction and HFpEF in humans.

Prophylactic or therapeutic NAD+ repletion can prevent or rescue HFpEF, but dietary intervention and weight loss cannot

Project description:Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction is a hallmark of Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF), an escalating global health challenge. We demonstrated selective depletion of the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and the rate-limiting enzyme of the NAD+ biosynthetic salvage pathway, nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), in human myocardium with LV diastolic dysfunction. We showed that NAD+ can be replenished in human myocardium with diastolic impairment ex vivo, despite reduced NAMPT expression. In a murine model of HFpEF [a combination exposure to high-fat diet (HFD) and L-NG-Nitro arginine methyl ester (L-NAME)], we compared the benefits of NAD+ precursor supplementation versus dietary intervention. We tested NAD+ repletion by nicotinamide riboside (NR) supplementation using two clinically-relevant strategies: 1) Prophylactic NR repletion before HFpEF onset, and 2) Therapeutic NR repletion after the development of HFpEF. We found that dietary intervention (replacement of HFD and L-NAME with healthy diet) restored myocardial insulin-dependent glucose uptake and glycolysis but did not rescue HFpEF. In contrast, both NAD+ repletion strategies prevented or rescued HFpEF, respectively, plausibly due to restoration of myocardial iron homeostasis, recoupling of glycolysis to the TCA cycle, and upregulation of antioxidant defense.

A preclinical rat model of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction with multiple comorbidities

Project description:As patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) present with multiple comorbidities, we hypothesized, that metabolic syndrome in aging animals could lead to the development of diastolic dysfunction and HFpEF. HFpEF is a common complex morbid syndrome for which there are currently little evidence-based therapies. Obesity-prone rats were exposed to high-fat diet and compared to obesity-resistant rats fed with standard chow. Phenotyping of metabolic syndrome, associated with echocardiographic and cardiac hemodynamic measurements, was performed after 4 and 12 months. Blood and myocardial tissue sampling were performed for pathobiological evaluation. High-fat diet in obesity-prone rats elicited metabolic syndrome, characterized by increased body and abdominal fat weights, glucose intolerance and hyperlipidemia, as well as increased left ventricular (LV) systolic pressure (after 12 months). This was associated with LV diastolic dysfunction (assessed by increased LV end-diastolic pressure) and pulmonary hypertension (assessed by increased right ventricular systolic pressure). Echocardiography revealed significant concentric LV hypertrophy, while LV ejection fraction was preserved. LV remodeling was associated with cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, as well as myocardial and perivascular fibrosis. Circulating levels of soluble ST2 markedly increased in rats with HFpEF, while plasma NT-proBNP levels decreased. RNA-sequencing analysis identified clusters of genes implicated in fatty acid metabolism and calcium-dependent contraction as upregulated pathways in the myocardium of rats with HFpEF. High-fat diet during 12 months in obesity-prone rats led to the development of a relevant preclinical model of HFpEF with multiple comorbidities, suitable for investigating novel therapeutic interventions.

Pericyte loss initiates microvascular dysfunction in the development of diastolic dysfunction

Project description:Microvascular dysfunction has been proposed to drive heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), but the initiating molecular and cellular events are largely unknown. Our objective was to determine when microvascular alterations in HFpEF begin, how they contribute to disease progression, and how pericyte dysfunction plays a role herein. We aimed to assess microvascular dysfunction with respect to the development of cardiac dysfunction, in the Zucker fatty and spontaneously hypertensive (ZSF1) obese rat model of HFpEF at three time points: 6, 14, and 21 weeks of age. We found that pericyte loss was the earliest and strongest microvascular change, occurring before prominent echocardiographic signs of diastolic dysfunction were present. Pericytes were shown to be less proliferative and had a disrupted morphology at 14 weeks in the obese ZSF1 animals, who also exhibited an increased capillary luminal diameter and disrupted endothelial junctions. Pericytes exposed to oxidative stress in vitro showed downregulation of cell cycle associated pathways, and induced a pro-inflammatory state in endothelial cells upon co-culture. We propose pericytes are important for maintaining endothelial cell function, where loss of pericytes enhances the reactivity of endothelial cells to inflammatory signals and promotes microvascular dysfunction, thereby accelerating the development of HFpEF.

Acetylation and phosphorylation changes to cardiac proteins in experimental HFpEF due to metabolic risk reveal targets for treatment

Project description:Aims: Despite the high prevalence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), the pathomechanisms remain elusive and specific therapy is lacking. Disease-causing factors include metabolic risk, notably obesity. However, proteomic changes in HFpEF are poorly understood, hampering therapeutic strategies. We sought to elucidate how metabolic syndrome affects cardiac protein expression, phosphorylation and acetylation in the Zucker diabetic fatty/Spontaneously hypertensive heart failure F1 (ZSF1) rat HFpEF model, and to evaluate some changes regarding their potential for treatment. Main methods: ZSF1 obese and lean rats were fed a Purina diet up to the onset of HFpEF in the obese animals. We quantified the proteome, phosphoproteome and acetylome of ZSF1 obese versus lean heart tissues by mass spectrometry and singled out targets for site-specific evaluation. Key findings: We found the acetylome of ZSF1 obese versus lean hearts more severely altered (21% of proteins changed) than the phosphoproteome (9%) or proteome (3%). Proteomic alterations, confirmed by immunoblotting, indicated low-grade systemic inflammation and endothelial remodeling in obese hearts, but low nitric oxide-dependent oxidative/nitrosative stress. Altered acetylation in ZSF1 obese hearts mainly affected pathways important for metabolism, energy production and mechanical function, including hypo-acetylation of mechanical proteins but hyper-acetylation of proteins regulating fatty acid metabolism. Hypo-acetylation and hypo-phosphorylation of elastic titin in ZSF1 obese hearts explained myocardial stiffening. Significance: Cardiometabolic syndrome alters posttranslational modifications, notably acetylation, in experimental HFpEF. Pathway changes implicate a HFpEF signature of low-grade inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, metabolic and mechanical impairment, and suggest titin stiffness and mitochondrial metabolism as promising therapeutic targets.

Upregulated FoxO1 promotes arrhythmogenesis in mice with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Myocardial fibrosis leads to cardiac dysfunction and arrhythmias in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here, RNA sequencing identifies Forkhead Box1 (FoxO1) signaling as abnormal in HFpEF hearts. Genetic suppression of FoxO1 alters the intercellular communication between cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts, alleviates abnormal diastolic relaxation, and reduces arrhythmias. Targeted downregulation of FoxO1 in activated fibroblasts reduces cardiac fibrosis, blunts arrhythmogenesis and improves diastolic function in HFpEF. These results not only implicate FoxO1 in arrhythmogenesis and lusitropy but also demonstrate that pro-fibrotic cardiomyocyte-fibroblast communication can be corrected, constituting a novel therapeutic strategy for HFpEF.

Proteomic and phosphoproteomic profiling in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)

Project description:Although the prevalence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is increasing, evidence-based therapies for HFpEF are rare, likely due to an incomplete understanding of this disease. This study sought to identify the cardiac-specific features of protein and phosphoprotein in a murine model of HFpEF using mass spectrometry. HFpEF mice developed moderate hypertension, left ventricle (LV) hypertrophy, lung congestion and diastolic dysfunction. Proteomics analysis of the LV tissue showed that 897 proteins were differentially expressed between HFpEF and Sham mice. We observed abundant changes in sarcomeric proteins, mitochondrial-related proteins, and NAD-dependent protein deacetylase sirtuin-3 (SIRT3). Upregulated pathways by GSEA analysis were related to immune modulation and muscle contraction, while downregulated pathways were predominantly related mitochondrial metabolism. Western blot analysis validated SIRT3 downregulated cardiac expression in HFpEF. Phosphoproteomics analysis showed that 72 phosphopeptides were differentially regulated between HFpEF and sham LV. Aberrant phosphorylation patterns mostly occurred in sarcomere proteins and nuclear-localized proteins associated with contractile dysfunction and cardiac hypertrophy. Seven aberrant phospho-sites were observed at the z disk binding region of titin. While total titin cardiac expression remained unaltered, its stiffer N2B isoform was significantly increased in HFpEF. Thus, these results show profound changes in proteins related to mitochondrial metabolism and function and the cardiac contractile apparatus in HFpEF. We propose that SIRT3 plays a key role and may be a target for drug development in HFpEF.

Hyperphosphorylation of sarcomeric proteins in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: selective reversal of PKC hyperactivity by cell therapy

Project description:Phosphorylation of sarcomeric proteins has been implicated in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF); such changes may contribute to diastolic dysfunction by altering contractility, cardiac stiffness, Ca2+-sensitivity and mechanosensing. Treatment with cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) restores normal diastolic function, attenuates fibrosis and inflammation, and improves survival in a rat HFpEF model. Here, we quantified the phosphorylation changes that underlie HFpEF and those reversed by CDC therapy, with a focus on the sarcomeric subproteome.

Immune profiling of murine cardiac leukocytes identifies Trem2 as a novel mediator of hypertensive heart failure

Project description:Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterized by diastolic dysfunction, microvascular dysfunction and myocardial fibrosis with recent evidence implicating the immune system in orchestrating cardiac remodeling. Here, we show the mouse model of deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA)-salt hypertension induces key elements of HFpEF, including diastolic dysfunction, exercise intolerance, and pulmonary congestion in the setting of preserved ejection fraction. CITE-Seq analysis of cardiac immune cells reveals an altered abundance and/or transcriptional signature in multiple cell types, most notably cardiac macrophages. The DOCA-salt model results in differential expression of several known and novel genes in cardiac macrophages, including upregulation of Trem2, which was also recently implicated in obesity and atherosclerosis. The role of macrophage Trem2 in cardiac remodeling, however, is unknown. We found that mice with genetic deletion of Trem2 exhibit increased cardiac hypertrophy and decreased cardiac capillary density after DOCA-salt treatment compared to wild-type controls, and Trem2-deficient macrophages have impaired expression of pro-angiogenic gene programs. Furthermore, we found that plasma levels of soluble TREM2 are elevated in human heart failure. Together, our data suggest a novel cardioprotective role for macrophage Trem2 in cardiac remodeling and heart failure and provide an atlas for the identification of additional targets that can lead to improved diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for HFpEF.
