Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death worldwide. Loss of cardiomyocytes that occurs during many types of damage to the heart such as ischemic injury and stress caused by pressure overload, diminishes cardiac function due to their limited regenerative capacity and promotes remodeling, which further damages the heart. Cardiomyocyte death occurs through two primary mechanisms, necrosis and apoptosis. Apoptosis is a highly regulated form of cell death that can occur through intrinsic (mitochondrial) or extrinsic (receptor mediated) pathways. Extrinsic apoptosis occurs through a subset of Tumor Necrosis Receptor (TNF) family receptors termed "Death Receptors." While some ligands for death receptors have been extensively studied in the heart, such as TNF-α, others have been virtually unstudied. One poorly characterized cardiac TNF related ligand is TNF-Related Apoptosis Inducing Ligand (TRAIL). TRAIL binds to two apoptosis-inducing receptors, Death Receptor (DR) 4 and DR5. There are also three decoy TRAIL receptors, Decoy Receptor (DcR) 1, DcR2 and osteoprotegerin (OPG). While TRAIL has been extensively studied in the cancer field due to its ability to selectively induce apoptosis in transformed cell types, emerging clinical evidence points towards a role for TRAIL and its receptors in cardiac pathology. This article will highlight our current understanding of TRAIL and its receptors in normal and pathological conditions in the heart.

[PMID: 33803523 PMCID: PMC8002847 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10061252] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2021] [Revised: 03/12/2021] [Accepted: 03/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a pro-apoptotic protein showing broad biological functions. Data from animal studies indicate that TRAIL may possibly contribute to the pathophysiology of cardiomyopathy, atherosclerosis, ischemic stroke and abdominal aortic aneurysm. It has been also suggested that TRAIL might be useful in cardiovascular risk stratification. This systematic review aimed to evaluate whether TRAIL is a risk factor or risk marker in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) focusing on major adverse cardiovascular events. Two databases (PubMed and Cochrane Library) were searched until December 2020 without a year limit in accordance to the PRISMA guidelines. A total of 63 eligible original studies were identified and included in our systematic review. Studies suggest an important role of TRAIL in disorders such as heart failure, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, ischemic stroke, peripheral artery disease, and pulmonary and gestational hypertension. Most evidence associates reduced TRAIL levels and increased TRAIL-R2 concentration with all-cause mortality in patients with CVDs. It is, however, unclear whether low TRAIL levels should be considered as a risk factor rather than a risk marker of CVDs. Further studies are needed to better define the association of TRAIL with cardiovascular diseases.

MicroRNA-155 inhibition attenuates endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis following myocardial infarction via reducing macrophage inflammation. Eur J Pharmacol 2019; 857:172449. [PMID: 31207208 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2019.172449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 27] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2019] [Revised: 06/08/2019] [Accepted: 06/12/2019] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS)-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis plays an important role in the pathological process following myocardial infarction (MI). Macrophages that express microRNA-155 (miR-155) mediate cardiac inflammation, fibrosis, and hypertrophy. Therefore, we investigated if miR-155 regulates ERS-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis after MI using a mouse model, lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced rat bone marrow derived macrophages (BMDMs)and hypoxia-induced neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMs). In vivo, miR-155 levelswere significantly higher in the MI group compared to the sham group. MI increasedmacrophage infiltration, nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation, ERS induced-apoptosis, and SOCS1 expression, all of which were attenuated by the miR-155 antagomir, with the exception of SOCS1 expression. Additionally, post-MI cardiac dysfunction was significantly improved by miR-155 inhibition. In vitro, LPS upregulated miR-155 expression in BMDMs, and the miR-155 antagomir decreased LPS-induced macrophage inflammation and NF-κB pathway activation, but increased expression of SOCS1. Hypoxia increased NF-κB pathway activation, ERS marker expression, and apoptosis in NRCMs. Interestingly, conditioned medium from LPS-induced macrophages in combination with the miR-155 antagomir decreased, while the miR-155 agomir increased, the hypoxia-induced effects in NRCM's. The miR-155 agomir effects were reversed by inhibiting the NF-κB pathway in cardiomyocytes. Moreover, SOCS1 knockdown in LPS-induced macrophages promoted NF-κB pathway activation and ERS-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis in the hypoxia-induced NRCMs, but the SOCS1-siRNA-induced effects were markedly decreased by miR-155 antagomir treatment. These data suggest that miR-155 inhibition attenuates ERS-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis after MI via reducing macrophage inflammation through the SOCS1/NF-κB pathway.
