During cardiac remodelling, the heart generates higher levels of reactive species; yet an intermediate ‘compensatory’ stage of hypertrophy is associated with a greater ability to withstand oxidative stress. The mechanisms underlying this protected myocardial phenotype are poorly understood. We examined how a cellular model of hypertrophy deals with electrophilic insults, such as would occur upon ischaemia or in the failing heart. For this, we measured energetics in control and PE (phenylephrine)-treated NRCMs (neonatal rat cardiomyocytes) under basal conditions and when stressed with HNE (4-hydroxynonenal). PE treatment caused hypertrophy as indicated by augmented atrial natriuretic peptide and increased cellular protein content. Hypertrophied myocytes demonstrated a 2.5-fold increase in ATP-linked oxygen consumption and a robust augmentation of oligomycin-stimulated glycolytic flux and lactate production. Hypertrophied myocytes displayed a protected phenotype that was resistant to HNE-induced cell death and a unique bioenergetic response characterized by a delayed and abrogated rate of oxygen consumption and a 2-fold increase in glycolysis upon HNE exposure. This augmentation of glycolytic flux was not due to increased glucose uptake, suggesting that electrophile stress results in utilization of intracellular glycogen stores to support the increased energy demand. Hypertrophied myocytes also had an increased propensity to oxidize HNE to 4-hydroxynonenoic acid and sustained less protein damage due to acute HNE insults. Inhibition of aldehyde dehydrogenase resulted in bioenergetic collapse when myocytes were challenged with HNE. The integration of electrophile metabolism with glycolytic and mitochondrial energy production appears to be important for maintaining myocyte homoeostasis under conditions of increased oxidative stress.

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) may incite cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury. We evaluate herein the influence of H2O2-induced oxidative stress on heart muscle hexose metabolism in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, which have a substrate preference for carbohydrate. Cardiomyocyte exposure to 50 microM-1.0 mM bolus H2O2 transiently activated the pentose phosphate cycle and thereafter inhibited cellular glucose oxidation and glycolysis. These metabolic derangements were nonperoxidative in nature (as assessed in alpha-tocopherol-loaded cells) and occurred without acute change in cardiomyocyte hexose transport or glucose/glycogen reserves. Glycolytic inhibition was supported by the rapid, specific inactivation of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). The degree of GAPDH inhibition correlated directly with the magnitude of the oxidative insult and was independent of both metal-catalyzed H2O2 reduction to free radicals and lipid peroxidation. Severe GAPDH inhibition was required for a rate-limiting effect on glycolytic flux. Cardiomyocyte pyruvate dehydrogenase was also inhibited by H2O2 overload, but to a lesser degree than GAPDH such that entry of hexose-derived acetyl units into the tricarboxylic acid cycle was not as restrictive as GAPDH inactivation to glycolytic ATP production. An increase in phosphofructokinase activity accompanied GAPDH inactivation, leading to the production and accumulation of glycolytic sugar phosphates at the expense of ATP equivalents. Cardiomyocyte treatment with iodoacetate or 2-deoxyglucose indicated that GAPDH inactivation/glycolytic blockade could account for approximately 50% of the maximal ATP loss following H2O2 overload. Partial restoration of GAPDH activity after a brief H2O2 "pulse" afforded some ATP recovery. These data establish that specific aspects of heart muscle hexose catabolism are H2O2-sensitive injury targets. The biochemical pathology of H2O2 overload on cardiomyocyte carbohydrate metabolism has implications for post-ischemic cardiac bioenergetics and function.

Endogenous adenosine can protect the overloaded heart against the development of hypertrophy and heart failure, but the contribution of A 1 receptors (A 1 R) and A 3 receptors(A 3 R) is not known. To test the hypothesis A 1 R and A 3 R can protect the heart against systolic overload, we exposed A 3 R gene deficient (A 3 R KO) mice and A 1 R KO mice to transverse aortic constriction (TAC). Contrary to our hypothesis, A 3 R KO attenuated 5 weeks TAC-induced left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (ratio of ventricular mass/body weight increased to 7.6 ±0.3 mg/g in wild type (Wt) mice as compared with 6.3±0.4 mg/g in KO), fibrosis and dysfunction (LV ejection fraction decreased to 43±2.5% and 55±4.2% in Wt and KO mice, respectively). A 3 R KO also attenuated the TAC-induced increases of myocardial ANP and the oxidative stress markers 3-nitrotyrosine(3-NT ) and 4-hydroxynonenal. In addition, A 3 R KO significantly attenuated TAC-induced activation of multiple MAP kinase pathways, and the activation of Akt-GSK signaling pathway. In contrast, A 1 R-KO increased TAC-induced mortality, but did not alter ventricular hypertrophy or dysfunction compared to Wt mice. In mice in which extracellular adenosine production was impaired by CD73 KO, TAC caused greater hypertrophy and dysfunction, and increased myocardial 3-NT, indicates that extracellular adenosine protects heart against TAC-induced ventricular oxidative stress and hypertrophy. In neonatal rat cardiomyocytes induced to hypertrophy with phenylephrine, the adenosine analogue 2-chloroadenosine (CADO) reduced cell area, protein synthesis, ANP and 3-NT. Antagonism of A3R significantly potentiated the anti-hypertrophic effects of CADO. Our data demonstrated that extracellular adenosine exerts protective effects on the overloaded heart, but A 3 R act counter to the protective effect of adenosine. The data suggest that selective attenuation of A 3 R activity might be a novel approach to attenuate pressure overload-induced myocardial oxidative stress, LV hypertrophy and dysfunction.

Obesity increases the risk of developing cardiovascular disease through vascular remodeling though the underlying mechanisms are not entirely understood. However, metabolic fuel partitioning and mitochondrial flexibility during energy metabolism may play a critical role. We demonstrated serum and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase 1 (SGK-1) is up-regulated in the vasculature of diet-induced obese mice and that SGK-1 deletion is protective against obesity-induced vascular remodeling by metabolically reprogramming vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) energy metabolism towards oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and away from glycolysis. Mitochondrial substrate availability and utilization of the primary metabolic fuels glucose, long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) and glutamine can drive metabolic reprogramming. Therefore, alterations in fuel utilization may contribute to vascular remodeling during obesity. The purpose of this study was to examine SGK-1’s role in 1) fuel dependency: a cell’s reliance for a specific fuel and 2) fuel capacity: a cell’s ability to oxidize a specific fuel to meet cellular energy demand under low-fat and high-fat diet-induced obesity. Using the MitoXpress Oxygen Consumption assay which measures OXPHOS, primary VSMCs isolated from wildtype (WT) and SMC-specific SGK-1 knockout (smSGK-1 KO) mice fed a 10% kcal low-fat or 45% kcal high-fat diet for eight weeks were seeded in a 96-well plate at a density of 6x10 4 cells/well in culture medium. To assess fuel dependency, cells were treated with fuel pathway inhibitors UK5099, Etomoxir or BPTES to block glucose, LCFA or glutamine oxidation, respectively. To measure fuel capacity, VSMCs were treated with a combination of two pathway inhibitors simultaneously. Next, samples were overlaid with a fluorescent extracellular oxygen consumption reagent, sealed with high-sensitivity mineral oil, then signals were read at 1.5-minute intervals for 2 hours at Ex/Em= 380/650 nm. Our results show WT VSMCs are exclusively glucose-dependent for OXPHOS regardless of dietary conditions. However, SGK-1 deletion induces a dependency for all three fuels for OXPHOS in VSMCs under low- and high-fat conditions. Even though WT and smSGK-1 KO VSMCs preferentially oxidized glucose for OXPHOS under low-fat conditions; SGK-1 deletion resulted in a 2.2-fold increase in glutamine capacity. Alternatively, WT VSMCs exposed to obesogenic conditions preferentially oxidized glutamine whereas SGK-1 deletion induced a nearly equal partitioning of all three fuels during obesity suggesting elevated mitochondrial flexibility. Overall, this study suggests SGK-1 increases glucose dependency for energy metabolism under physiological and obesogenic conditions. Also, increased glutamine utilization for OXPHOS during obesity may be an underlying cause of VSMC dysfunction and subsequent vascular impairment.

Rationale: H 2 S is a gasotransmitter that regulates multiple cardiovascular functions. Krüppel-like transcription factor (KLF) exerts diverse functions in the cardiovascular system. Objectives: The aim of present study was to investigate the effect of hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) on myocardial hypertrophy. Methods and results: Myocardial samples of 22 patients with left ventricle hypertrophy were collected and underwent histological and molecular biological analysis. Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were studied for functional and signaling response to GYY4137, a H 2 S-releasing compound. Expression of cystathionine -lyase (CSE), a main enzyme for H 2 S generation in human heart, decreased in human hypertrophic myocardium, while KLF5 expression increased. In SHR treated with GYY4137 for 4 weeks, myocardial hypertrophy was inhibited as evidenced by improvement in cardiac structural parameters, heart mass index, size of cardiac myocytes and expression of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). Levels of oxidative stress and phosphorylation of mitogen-activated protein kinases were also decreased after H 2 S treatment. H 2 S diminished expression of the KLF5 in myocardium of SHR and in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes rendered hypertrophy by angiotensin II (Ang II). H 2 S also inhibited ANP promoter activity and ANP expression in Ang II-induced neonatal rat cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, and these effects were suppressed by KLF5 knockdown. KLF5 promoter activity was increased by Ang II stimulation, and this was reversed by H 2 S. H 2 S also decreased activity of specificity protein-1 (SP-1) binding to the KLF5 promoter and attenuated KLF5 nuclear translocation by Ang II stimulation. Conclusion: H 2 S attenuated myocardial hypertrophy, which might be related to inhibiting oxidative stress and decreasing ANP transcription activity in a KLF5-dependent manner.

Backgrounds: DNA damage occurs in cardiomyocytes during normal cellular metabolism and is significantly increased under cardiac stresses. How cardiomyocytes repair their DNA damage, especially DNA double strand breaks (DSBs), remains undetermined. We assessed DSBs caused by oxidative stress. More importantly, we investigated the spatiotemporal dynamics of DNA repair protein assembly/disassembly in DNA damage sites. Methods: Cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were treated with different doses of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for 30 minutes to assess DNA damage response (DDR). To investigate the dynamics of DDR, cells were treated with 200 uM H2O2 and followed up to 72 hours. DSBs were evaluated by counting DNA damage foci after staining with antibody against histone H2AX phosphorylation at serine 139 (g-H2AX). The dynamics and posttranslational modification of DNA repair proteins were determined by Western blotting, immunolabeling, and confocal microscopy. Result: g-H2AX was proportionally increased to H2O2 dosage. Discrete nuclear g-H2AX foci were seen 30 minutes after hydrogen peroxide treatment with 50 uM, but became pannuclear when H2O2 was above 400 uM. At 200 uM of hydrogen peroxide, g-H2AX started to increase at 15 minutes and reached to highest levels at 60 minutes with up to 70 nuclear foci, started to decline at 2 hours, and returned to basal levels at 24 hours. DDR transducer kinase, ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) was activated at 5 minutes with increased phosphorylation at serine 1981 (pATM) which started to decrease at 24 hours, but remained elevated up to 48 hours. Another DDR transducer kinase, ATM and Rad3-related (ATR) showed a biphasic activation at 30 minutes and 8 hours. ATM and ATR colocalized with g-H2AX. DNA damage mediator proteins such as MRN complex and p53BP1 were also recruited to sites of DNA damage at g-H2AX foci. Conclusions: DSBs and their repair have emerged as a new frontier of stress responses. Newly developed methods for studying g-H2AX and DNA repair protein dynamics can be explored to investigate DDR to oxidative stress in cardiomyocytes.

The mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) p38 is important in cardiac hypertrophic responses and p38 inhibition has been tested as a potential therapeutic approach to heart failure. p38 is tightly regulated by upstream kinases and phosphatases. While p38 inhibitors suppress cardiac hypertrophy in vitro and in animal models, the partial efficacy of p38 inhibitors in clinical trials for heart failure illustrates the need for a deeper understanding of p38-regulatory mechanisms. O -linked N-Acetylglucosamine ( O -GlcNAc) on Ser/Thr residues is a ubiquitous intracellular modification ( O -GlcNAcylation) that participates in intracellular signaling, often occurring in counterpoint to phosphorylation. O -GlcNAcylation is catalyzed by O -GlcNAc Transferase (OGT) and removed by O -GlcNAc-Ase (OGA). Given the crucial regulation of p38 activity by phosphorylation, we hypothesized that O -GlcNAcylation regulates p38 phosphorylation during basal and hypertrophic cardiomyocyte signaling. Treating neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVM) with OSMI-1 (inhibitor of OGT) significantly decreased O -GlcNAcylation (0.48 ± 0.02, P <0.001 vs. vehicle), whereas treatment with Thiamet-G (inhibitor of OGA) significantly increased O -GlcNAcylation (3.0-fold increase ± 0.35, P <0.05 vs. vehicle). OSMI1 treatment induced the phosphorylation of p38 at its activation site (3.9-fold increase ± 0.46, P <0.001 vs. vehicle) and promoted the phosphorylation of the downstream target, heat shock protein Hsp27 (8-fold increase ± 1.3, P <0.0001 vs. vehicle) and transcription factor Creb (3.3-fold increase ± 0.12, P <0.001 vs. vehicle). OSMI-1 had an additive effect in inducing p38 and Creb phosphorylation following hypertrophic stimulation by phenylephrine (3.1-fold and 1.4-fold increase vs. phenylephrine respectively, P <0.05). Treatment with the p38 inhibitor SB202190 abolished the phosphorylation of Hsp27 and Creb that was induced by OSMI-1. Canonical upstream activators of p38 include the MAP3Ks, TAK1 and ASK1. However, we found that treatment with ASK1 or TAK1 inhibitors (GS-444217 and Takinib, respectively) either alone, or in combination, did not negate the phosphorylation of p38 by OSMI-1. We conclude that regulation of p38 by OGT activity could occur at a level downstream of canonical MAP3Ks or through non-canonical pathways.
