Abstract
Cardiac ATP production is tightly regulated in order to satisfy the evolving energetic requirements imposed by different cues during health and pathological conditions. In order to sustain high ATP production rates, cardiac cells are endowed with a vast mitochondrial network that is essentially acquired during the perinatal period. Nevertheless, adult cardiac cells also adapt their mitochondrial mass and oxidative function to changes in energy demand and substrate availability by fine-tuning the pathways and mitochondrial machinery involved in energy production. The reliance of cardiac cells on mitochondrial metabolism makes them particularly sensitive to alterations in proper mitochondrial function, so that deficiency in energy production underlies or precipitates the development of heart diseases. Mitochondrial biogenesis is a complex process fundamentally controlled at the transcriptional level by a network of transcription factors and co-regulators, sometimes with partially redundant functions, that ensure adequate energy supply to the working heart. Novel uncovered regulators, such as RIP140, PERM1, MED1 or BRD4 have been recently shown to modulate or facilitate the transcriptional activity of the PGC-1s/ERRs/PPARs regulatory axis, allowing cardiomyocytes to adapt to a variety of physiological or pathological situations requiring different energy provision. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the mechanisms that regulate cardiac mitochondrial biogenesis, highlighting the recent discoveries of new transcriptional regulators and describing the experimental models that have provided solid evidence of the relevant contribution of these factors to cardiac function in health and disease.

Abstract
Mitochondria are essential organelles whose dysfunction causes human pathologies that often manifest in a tissue-specific manner. Accordingly, mitochondrial fitness depends on versatile proteomes specialized to meet diverse tissue-specific requirements. Increasing evidence suggests that phosphorylation may play an important role in regulating tissue-specific mitochondrial functions and pathophysiology. Building on recent advances in mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics, we here quantitatively profile mitochondrial tissue proteomes along with their matching phosphoproteomes. We isolated mitochondria from mouse heart, skeletal muscle, brown adipose tissue, kidney, liver, brain, and spleen by differential centrifugation followed by separation on Percoll gradients and performed high-resolution MS analysis of the proteomes and phosphoproteomes. This in-depth map substantially quantifies known and predicted mitochondrial proteins and provides a resource of core and tissue-specific mitochondrial proteins (mitophos.de). Predicting kinase substrate associations for different mitochondrial compartments indicates tissue-specific regulation at the phosphoproteome level. Illustrating the functional value of our resource, we reproduce mitochondrial phosphorylation events on dynamin-related protein 1 responsible for its mitochondrial recruitment and fission initiation and describe phosphorylation clusters on MIGA2 linked to mitochondrial fusion.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The search for novel compounds targeting Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPARs) is currently ongoing, starting from the previous successfully identification of selective, dual or pan agonists. In last years, researchers' efforts are mainly paid to the discovery of PPARγ and δ modulators, both agonists and antagonists, selective or with a dual-multitarget profile. Some of these compounds are currently under clinical trials for the treatment of primary biliary cirrhosis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, hepatic, and renal diseases. AREAS COVERED A critical analysis of patents deposited in the range 2020-2023 was carried out. The novel compounds discovered were classified as selective PPAR modulators, dual and multitarget PPAR agonists. The use of PPAR ligands in combination with other drugs was also discussed, together with novel therapeutic indications proposed for them. EXPERT OPINION From the analysis of the patent literature, the current emerging landscape sees the necessity to obtain PPAR multitarget compounds, with a balanced potency on three subtypes and the ability to modulate different targets. This multitarget action holds great promise as a novel approach to complex disorders, as metabolic, inflammatory diseases, and cancer. The utility of PPAR ligands in the immunotherapy field also opens an innovative scenario, that could deserve further applications.

Abstract
Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is characterized not only by reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) but is also combined with symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue, and edema. Several pharmacological interventions have been established. However, a treatment targeting a novel pathophysiological mechanism is still needed. Evidence indicating that inhibition of pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4 (PDK4) may be cardioprotective has been accumulating. Thus, we focused on vitamin K3 and used its framework as a new PDK4 inhibitor skeleton to synthesize new PDK4 inhibitors that show higher activity than the existing PDK4 inhibitor, dichloroacetic acid, and tested their cardioprotective effects on a mouse heart failure model. Among these inhibitors, PDK4 inhibitor 8 improved EF the most, even though it did not reverse cardiac fibrosis or wall thickness. This novel, potent PDK4 inhibitor may improve EF of failing hearts by regulating bioenergetics via activation of the tricarboxylic acid cycle.

Mitochondrial GSNOR Alleviates Cardiac Dysfunction via ANT1 Denitrosylation. Circ Res 2023; 133:220-236. [PMID: 37377022 DOI: 10.1161/circresaha.123.322654] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The cardiac-protective role of GSNOR (S-nitrosoglutathione reductase) in the cytoplasm, as a denitrosylase enzyme of S-nitrosylation, has been reported in cardiac remodeling, but whether GSNOR is localized in other organelles and exerts novel effects remains unknown. We aimed to elucidate the effects of mitochondrial GSNOR, a novel subcellular localization of GSNOR, on cardiac remodeling and heart failure (HF). METHODS GSNOR subcellular localization was observed by cellular fractionation assay, immunofluorescent staining, and colloidal gold particle staining. Overexpression of GSNOR in mitochondria was achieved by mitochondria-targeting sequence-directed adeno-associated virus 9. Cardiac-specific knockout of GSNOR mice was used to examine the role of GSNOR in HF. S-nitrosylation sites of ANT1 (adenine nucleotide translocase 1) were identified using biotin-switch and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. RESULTS GSNOR expression was suppressed in cardiac tissues of patients with HF. Consistently, cardiac-specific knockout mice showed aggravated pathological remodeling induced by transverse aortic constriction. We found that GSNOR is also localized in mitochondria. In the angiotensin II-induced hypertrophic cardiomyocytes, mitochondrial GSNOR levels significantly decreased along with mitochondrial functional impairment. Restoration of mitochondrial GSNOR levels in cardiac-specific knockout mice significantly improved mitochondrial function and cardiac performance in transverse aortic constriction-induced HF mice. Mechanistically, we identified ANT1 as a direct target of GSNOR. A decrease in mitochondrial GSNOR under HF leads to an elevation of S-nitrosylation ANT1 at cysteine 160 (C160). In accordance with these findings, overexpression of either mitochondrial GSNOR or ANT1 C160A, non-nitrosylated mutant, significantly improved mitochondrial function, maintained the mitochondrial membrane potential, and upregulated mitophagy. CONCLUSIONS We identified a novel species of GSNOR localized in mitochondria and found mitochondrial GSNOR plays an essential role in maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis through ANT1 denitrosylation, which provides a potential novel therapeutic target for HF.

Abstract
The cardiac mitochondrial damage and cardiac hypertrophy pathways are intimately associated with the pathology of myocardial infarction (MI). The protective effects of β-caryophyllene on mitochondrial damage and cardiac hypertrophy pathways in isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarcted rats were investigated. Isoproterenol (100 mg/kg body weight) was administered to induce MI. The ST-segment, QT interval, and T wave were widened, and the QRS complex and P wave were shortened in the electrocardiogram (ECG) and the serum cardiac diagnostic markers and heart mitochondrial lipid peroxidation products, calcium ions, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were elevated and the heart mitochondrial antioxidants, tricarboxylic acid cycle, and respiratory chain enzymes were lessened in isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarcted rats. The heart mitochondrial damage was noted in the transmission electron microscopic study. The whole heart weight was increased and the subunits of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate - oxidase 2 (Nox 2) genes such as cybb and p22-phox and cardiac hypertrophy genes such as atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), β -myosin heavy chain (β-MHC), and actin alpha skeletal muscle-1(ACTA-1) were highly expressed in the rat's heart by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction study. The β-caryophyllene (20 mg/kg body weight) pre- and co-treatment orally, daily for 21 days reversed changes in ECG and lessened cardiac diagnostic markers, ROS, and whole heart weight and ameliorated mitochondrial damage and Nox/ANP/BNP/β-MHC/ACTA-1cardiac hypertrophy pathways in isoproterenol-induced myocardial infarcted rats. The observed effects might be due to the antioxidant, anti-mitochondrial damaging, and anti-cardiac hypertrophic mechanisms of β-caryophyllene.

Abstract
Anthracyclines such as doxorubicin are widely used chemotherapy drugs. A common side effect of anthracycline therapy is cardiotoxicity, which can compromise heart function and lead to dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure. Dexrazoxane and heart failure medications (i.e., beta blockers and drugs targeting the renin-angiotensin system) are prescribed for the primary prevention of cancer therapy-related cardiotoxicity and for the management of cardiac dysfunction and symptoms if they arise during chemotherapy. However, there is a clear need for new therapies to combat the cardiotoxic effects of cancer drugs. Exercise is a cardioprotective stimulus that has recently been shown to improve heart function and prevent functional disability in breast cancer patients undergoing anthracycline chemotherapy. Evidence from preclinical studies supports the use of exercise training to prevent or attenuate the damaging effects of anthracyclines on the cardiovascular system. In this review, we summarise findings from experimental models which provide insight into cellular mechanisms by which exercise may protect the heart from anthracycline-mediated damage, and identify knowledge gaps that require further investigation. Improved understanding of the mechanisms by which exercise protects the heart from anthracyclines may lead to the development of novel therapies to treat cancer therapy-related cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Observational studies suggest inverse associations between serum vitamin levels and the risk of heart failure (HF). However, the causal effects of vitamins on HF have not been fully elucidated. Here, we conducted a Mendelian randomization (MR) study to investigate the causal associations between genetically determined vitamin levels and HF. METHODS Genetic instrumental variables for circulating vitamin levels, including vitamins A, B, C, D, and E, which were assessed as either absolute or metabolite levels were obtained from public genome-wide association studies. Summary statistics for single-nucleotide-polymorphisms and HF associations were retrieved from the HERMES Consortium (47,309 cases and 930,014 controls) and FinnGen Study (30,098 cases and 229,612 controls). Two-sample MR analyses were implemented to assess the causality between vitamin levels and HF per outcome database, and the results were subsequently combined by meta-analysis. RESULTS Our MR study did not find significant associations between genetically determined circulating vitamin levels and HF risk. For absolute vitamin levels, the odds ratio for HF ranged from 0.97 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.85-1.09, P = 0.41) for vitamin C to 1.05 (95% CI: 0.61-1.82, P = 0.85) for vitamin A. For vitamin metabolites, the odds ratio ranged between 0.94 (95% CI: 0.75-1.19, P = 0.62) for α-tocopherol and 1.11 (95% CI: 0.98-1.26, P = 0.09) for γ-tocopherol. CONCLUSION Evidence from our study does not support the causal effects of circulating vitamin levels on HF. Therefore, there may be no direct beneficial effects of vitamin intake on the prevention of primary HF.

Germanova E, Khmil N, Pavlik L, Mikheeva I, Mironova G, Lukyanova L. The Role of Mitochondrial Enzymes, Succinate-Coupled Signaling Pathways and Mitochondrial Ultrastructure in the Formation of Urgent Adaptation to Acute Hypoxia in the Myocardium. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232214248. [PMID: 36430733 PMCID: PMC9696391 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232214248] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2022] [Revised: 10/21/2022] [Accepted: 11/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The effect of a single one-hour exposure to three modes of hypobaric hypoxia (HBH) differed in the content of O2 in inhaled air (FiO2-14%, 10%, 8%) in the development of mitochondrial-dependent adaptive processes in the myocardium was studied in vivo. The following parameters have been examined: (a) an urgent reaction of catalytic subunits of mitochondrial enzymes (NDUFV2, SDHA, Cyt b, COX2, ATP5A) in the myocardium as an indicator of the state of the respiratory chain electron transport function; (b) an urgent activation of signaling pathways dependent on GPR91, HIF-1α and VEGF, allowing us to assess their role in the formation of urgent mechanisms of adaptation to hypoxia in the myocardium; (c) changes in the ultrastructure of three subpopulations of myocardial mitochondria under these conditions. The studies were conducted on two rat phenotypes: rats with low resistance (LR) and high resistance (HR) to hypoxia. The adaptive and compensatory role of the mitochondrial complex II (MC II) in maintaining the electron transport and energy function of the myocardium in a wide range of reduced O2 concentrations in the initial period of hypoxic exposure has been established. The features of urgent reciprocal regulatory interaction of NAD- and FAD-dependent oxidation pathways in myocardial mitochondria under these conditions have been revealed. The data indicating the participation of GPR91, HIF-1a and VEGF in this process have been obtained. The ultrastructure of the mitochondrial subpopulations in the myocardium of LR and HR rats differed in normoxic conditions and reacted differently to hypoxia of varying severity. The parameters studied together are highly informative indicators of the quality of cardiac activity and metabolic biomarkers of urgent adaptation in various hypoxic conditions.

Abstract
Regular moderate-intensity exercise elicits benefit cardiovascular health outcomes. However, exhaustive exercise (EE) triggers arrhythmia, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death. Therefore, a better understanding of unfavorable heart sequelae of EE is important. Various mechanisms have been postulated for EE-induced cardiac injury, among which mitochondrial dysfunction is considered the cardinal machinery for pathogenesis of various diseases. Mitochondrial quality control (MQC) is critical for clearance of long-lived or damaged mitochondria, regulation of energy metabolism and cell apoptosis, maintenance of cardiac homeostasis and alleviation of EE-induced injury. In this review, we will focus on MQC mechanisms and propose mitochondrial pathophysiological targets for the management of EE-induced myocardial injury. A thorough understanding of how MQC system functions in the maintenance of mitochondrial homeostasis will provide a feasible rationale for developing potential therapeutic interventions for EE-induced injury.

Dichloroacetate as a metabolic modulator of heart mitochondrial proteome under conditions of reduced oxygen utilization. Sci Rep 2022; 12:16348.

Abstract
Myocardial compensatory mechanisms stimulated by reduced oxygen utilization caused by streptozotocin-induced diabetes mellitus (DM) and treated with dichloroacetate (DCA) are presumably associated with the regulation of mitochondria. We aimed to promote the understanding of key signaling pathways and identify effectors involved in signal transduction. Proteomic analysis and fluorescence spectroscopy measurements revealed significantly decreased membrane potential and upregulated protein amine oxidase [flavin-containing] A (AOFA) in DM mitochondria, indicative of oxidative damage. DCA in diabetic animals (DM + DCA) downregulated AOFA, increased membrane potential, and stimulated thioredoxin-dependent peroxide reductase, a protein with antioxidant function. Furthermore, the DM condition was associated with mitochondrial resistance to calcium overload through mitochondrial permeability transition pores (mPTPs) regulation, despite an increased protein level of voltage-dependent anion-selective protein (VDAC1). In contrast, DM + DCA influenced ROS levels and downregulated VDAC1 and VDAC3 when compared to DM alone. The diabetic myocardium showed an identical pattern of mPTP protein interactions as in the control group, but the interactions were attenuated. Characterization of the combined effect of DM + DCA is a novel finding showing that DCA acted as an effector of VDAC protein interactions, calcium uptake regulation, and ROS production. Overall, DM and DCA did not exhibit an additive effect, but an individual cardioprotective pathway.

Abstract
The sinoatrial node (SAN), the leading pacemaker region, generates electrical impulses that propagate throughout the heart. SAN dysfunction with bradyarrhythmia is well documented in heart failure (HF). However, the underlying mechanisms are not completely understood. Mitochondria are critical to cellular processes that determine the life or death of the cell. The release of Ca2+ from the ryanodine receptors 2 (RyR2) on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) at mitochondria-SR microdomains serves as the critical communication to match energy production to meet metabolic demands. Therefore, we tested the hypothesis that alterations in the mitochondria-SR connectomics contribute to SAN dysfunction in HF. We took advantage of a mouse model of chronic pressure overload-induced HF by transverse aortic constriction (TAC) and a SAN-specific CRISPR-Cas9-mediated knockdown of mitofusin-2 (Mfn2), the mitochondria-SR tethering GTPase protein. TAC mice exhibited impaired cardiac function with HF, cardiac fibrosis, and profound SAN dysfunction. Ultrastructural imaging using electron microscope (EM) tomography revealed abnormal mitochondrial structure with increased mitochondria-SR distance. The expression of Mfn2 was significantly down-regulated and showed reduced colocalization with RyR2 in HF SAN cells. Indeed, SAN-specific Mfn2 knockdown led to alterations in the mitochondria-SR microdomains and SAN dysfunction. Finally, disruptions in the mitochondria-SR microdomains resulted in abnormal mitochondrial Ca2+ handling, alterations in localized protein kinase A (PKA) activity, and impaired mitochondrial function in HF SAN cells. The current study provides insights into the role of mitochondria-SR microdomains in SAN automaticity and possible therapeutic targets for SAN dysfunction in HF patients.

PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 99:153964.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) limits the clinical application of the drug in treatment of cancers and imposes a severe health burden on the patients. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop alternative therapeutic strategies or drugs to minimize DIC. Salidroside is a phenylpropanoid glycoside extracted from Rhodiola rosea with multiple biological effects such as anti-inflammation and antioxidant properties. However, its mechanism of action in DIC is still poorly understood. PURPOSE The present study was aimed to investigate the role of salidroside in DIC and associated mechanism of action for the described effects. METHODS Cardiac dysfunction was induced through treatment of mice with doxorubicin in vivo and in vitro. The mechanism of action of salidroside was investigated using western blot assay, qPCR, immunofluorescence, histochemistry, echocardiography, and high-content imaging system. RESULTS Results of the current study found that treatment of mice with salidroside significantly improved doxorubicin-induced cardiac dysfunction, ferroptosis-like cell damage, and fibrosis in vivo. Further, it was noted that salidroside inhibited ferroptosis in vivo and in vitro by limiting iron accumulation, restoring GPX4-dependent antioxidant capacity, and preventing lipid peroxidation at the cellular or mitochondrial levels. Mechanistically, salidroside inhibited DOX-induced mitochondrial ROS, Fe2+, and lipid peroxidation as well as restored mitochondrial membrane potential by promoting mitochondrial biogenesis, improving mitochondrial iron-sulfur clusters, and restoring mitochondrial OXPHOS complexes, thereby improving mitochondrial function. In addition, AMPK is a key protein that coordinates mitochondria, metabolism, and ferroptosis. Therefore, it was found that compound C (CC), an AMPK inhibitor, disrupted the regulation of cellular lipid metabolism and mitochondrial function of salidroside as well as led to failure of the protective effect of salidroside against ferroptotic cell death. CONCLUSIONS The present study evidently demonstrated the cardioprotective effects of salidroside against doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy. Further, salidroside markedly down-regulated ferroptotic cell death by activating AMPK-dependent signaling pathways including regulating abnormal fatty acid metabolism and maintaining mitochondrial function. Therefore, salidroside is can be exploited to develop a novel medication for clinical DIC and salidroside may represent a novel treatment that improves recovery from DIC by targeting ferroptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemic heart disease remains a leading cause of death worldwide. In this study, we test the hypothesis that microRNA-210 protects the heart from myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury by controlling mitochondrial bioenergetics and reactive oxygen species (ROS) flux. METHODS Myocardial infarction in an acute setting of IR was examined through comparing loss- versus gain-of-function experiments in microRNA-210-deficient and wild-type mice. Cardiac function was evaluated by echocardiography. Myocardial mitochondria bioenergetics was examined using a Seahorse XF24 Analyzer. RESULTS MicroRNA-210 deficiency significantly exaggerated cardiac dysfunction up to 6 weeks after myocardial IR in male, but not female, mice. Intravenous injection of microRNA-210 mimic blocked the effect and recovered the increased myocardial IR injury and cardiac dysfunction. Analysis of mitochondrial metabolism revealed that microRNA-210 inhibited mitochondrial oxygen consumption, increased glycolytic activity, and reduced mitochondrial ROS flux in the heart during IR injury. Inhibition of mitochondrial ROS with MitoQ consistently reversed the effect of microRNA-210 deficiency. Mechanistically, we showed that mitochondrial glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase is a novel target of microRNA-210 in the heart, and loss-of-function and gain-of-function experiments revealed that glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase played a key role in the microRNA-210-mediated effect on mitochondrial metabolism and ROS flux in the setting of heart IR injury. Knockdown of glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase negated microRNA-210 deficiency-induced increases in mitochondrial ROS production and myocardial infarction and improved left ventricular fractional shortening and ejection fraction after the IR treatment. CONCLUSIONS MicroRNA-210 targeting glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase controls mitochondrial bioenergetics and ROS flux and improves cardiac function in a murine model of myocardial infarction in the setting of IR injury. The findings suggest new insights into the mechanisms and therapeutic targets for treatment of ischemic heart disease.

Abstract
Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a severe congenital heart disease with 30% mortality from heart failure (HF) in the first year of life, but the cause of early HF remains unknown. Induced pluripotent stem-cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CM) from patients with HLHS showed that early HF is associated with increased apoptosis, mitochondrial respiration defects, and redox stress from abnormal mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening and failed antioxidant response. In contrast, iPSC-CM from patients without early HF showed normal respiration with elevated antioxidant response. Single-cell transcriptomics confirmed that early HF is associated with mitochondrial dysfunction accompanied with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. These findings indicate that uncompensated oxidative stress underlies early HF in HLHS. Importantly, mitochondrial respiration defects, oxidative stress, and apoptosis were rescued by treatment with sildenafil to inhibit mPTP opening or TUDCA to suppress ER stress. Together these findings point to the potential use of patient iPSC-CM for modeling clinical heart failure and the development of therapeutics.

Abstract
With respect to structural and functional cardiac disorders, heart failure (HF) is divided into HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Oxidative stress contributes to the development of both HFrEF and HFpEF. Identification of a broad spectrum of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced pathways in preclinical models has provided new insights about the importance of ROS in HFrEF and HFpEF development. While current treatment strategies mostly concern neuroendocrine inhibition, recent data on ROS-induced metabolic pathways in cardiomyocytes may offer additional treatment strategies and targets for both of the HF forms. The purpose of this article is to summarize the results achieved in the fields of: (1) ROS importance in HFrEF and HFpEF pathophysiology, and (2) treatments for inhibiting ROS-induced pathways in HFrEF and HFpEF patients. ROS-producing pathways in cardiomyocytes, ROS-activated pathways in different HF forms, and treatment options to inhibit their action are also discussed.

Jaboticaba (Myrciaria jaboticaba) Attenuates Ventricular Remodeling after Myocardial Infarction in Rats. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11020249. [PMID: 35204132 PMCID: PMC8868135 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11020249] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2021] [Revised: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 01/25/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
The cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction is characterized by inflammation and oxidative stress. Thus, this study aimed to test the hypothesis that jaboticaba, due to its anti-inflammatory and antioxidants properties, attenuates cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction. Wistar rats were submitted to myocardial infarction due to coronary artery occlusion, and divided into four experimental groups: C, sham control animals; I, animals submitted to myocardial infarction, received a standard diet; IJ2, animals submitted to myocardial infarction, received a standard diet plus 2% jaboticaba; and IJ4, animals submitted to myocardial infarction, received a standard diet plus 4% jaboticaba. After a three-month follow-up, echocardiography, histology, oxidative stress, and cardiac energy metabolism were analyzed. There was no difference in infarct size or mortality among the infarcted groups. The IJ4 group displayed improved diastolic function, as assessed by isovolumetric relaxation time normalized to the heart rate. As expected, the percentage of collagen was higher in all infarcted groups than in the C group. However, the IJ2 group had less collagen than groups I and IJ4. The IJ4 group presented lower PFK activity than I and IJ2, and lower pyruvate dehydrogenase activity than controls, whereas the IJ2 group showed no differences compared to the control group in both LDH and ATP synthase activity. The 2% and 4% doses attenuated lipid peroxidation and increased the activity of glutathione peroxidase compared with the I group. In conclusion, jaboticaba attenuated the remodeling process after myocardial infarction, which was associated with decreased oxidative stress and improved energy metabolism.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a plague of the aging population in industrialized countries that continues to cause many deaths despite intensive research into more effective treatments. Although the therapeutic arsenal to face heart failure has been expanding, the relatively short life expectancy of HF patients is pushing towards novel therapeutic strategies. Heart failure is associated with drastic metabolic disorders, including severe myocardial mitochondrial dysfunction and systemic nutrient deprivation secondary to severe cardiac dysfunction. To date, no effective therapy has been developed to restore the cardiac energy metabolism of the failing myocardium, mainly due to the metabolic complexity and intertwining of the involved processes. Recent years have witnessed a growing scientific interest in natural molecules that play a pivotal role in energy metabolism with promising therapeutic effects against heart failure. Among these molecules, B vitamins are a class of water soluble vitamins that are directly involved in energy metabolism and are of particular interest since they are intimately linked to energy metabolism and HF patients are often B vitamin deficient. This review aims at assessing the value of B vitamin supplementation in the treatment of heart failure.

Abstract
It has been over 10 years since SLC24A6/SLC8B1, coding the Na+/Ca2+/Li+ exchanger (NCLX), was identified as the gene responsible for mitochondrial Na+-Ca2+ exchange, a major Ca2+ efflux system in cardiac mitochondria. This molecular identification enabled us to determine structure–function relationships, as well as physiological/pathophysiological contributions, and our understandings have dramatically increased. In this review, we provide an overview of the recent achievements in relation to NCLX, focusing especially on its heart-specific characteristics, biophysical properties, and spatial distribution in cardiomyocytes, as well as in cardiac mitochondria. In addition, we discuss the roles of NCLX in cardiac functions under physiological and pathophysiological conditions—the generation of rhythmicity, the energy metabolism, the production of reactive oxygen species, and the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pores.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence suggests that the failing heart reverts energy metabolism toward increased utilization of ketone bodies. Despite many discrepancies in the literature, evidence from both bench and clinical research demonstrates beneficial effects of ketone bodies in heart failure. Ketone bodies are readily oxidized by cardiomyocytes and can provide ancillary fuel for the energy-starved failing heart. In addition, ketone bodies may help to restore cardiac function by mitigating inflammation, oxidative stress, and cardiac remodeling. In this review, we hypothesize that a therapeutic approach intended to restore cardiac metabolism through ketone bodies could both refuel and 'repair' the failing heart.

Abstract
Drug-induced cardiotoxicity and hepatotoxicity are major causes of drug attrition. To decrease late-stage drug attrition, pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries need to establish biologically relevant models that use phenotypic screening to detect drug-induced toxicity in vitro. In this study, we sought to rapidly detect patterns of cardiotoxicity using high-content image analysis with deep learning and induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs). We screened a library of 1280 bioactive compounds and identified those with potential cardiotoxic liabilities in iPSC-CMs using a single-parameter score based on deep learning. Compounds demonstrating cardiotoxicity in iPSC-CMs included DNA intercalators, ion channel blockers, epidermal growth factor receptor, cyclin-dependent kinase, and multi-kinase inhibitors. We also screened a diverse library of molecules with unknown targets and identified chemical frameworks that show cardiotoxic signal in iPSC-CMs. By using this screening approach during target discovery and lead optimization, we can de-risk early-stage drug discovery. We show that the broad applicability of combining deep learning with iPSC technology is an effective way to interrogate cellular phenotypes and identify drugs that may protect against diseased phenotypes and deleterious mutations.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is one of the leading causes of hospitalization for the adult population and a major cause of mortality worldwide. The HF syndrome is characterized by the heart's inability to supply the cardiac output required to meet the body's metabolic requirements or only at the expense of elevated filling pressures. HF without overt impairment of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was initially labeled as "diastolic HF" until recognizing the coexistence of both systolic and diastolic abnormalities in most cases. Acknowledging these findings, the preferred nomenclature is HF with preserved EF (HFpEF). This syndrome primarily affects the elderly population and is associated with a heterogeneous overlapping of comorbidities that makes its diagnosis challenging. Despite extensive research, there is still no evidence-based therapy for HFpEF, reinforcing the need for a thorough understanding of the pathophysiology underlying its onset and progression. The role of mitochondrial dysfunction in developing the pathophysiological changes that accompany HFpEF onset and progression (low-grade systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and myocardial remodeling) has just begun to be acknowledged. This review summarizes our current understanding of the participation of the mitochondrial network in the pathogenesis of HFpEF, with particular emphasis on the signaling pathways involved, which may provide future therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Raspberry ketone (RK) is an aromatic phenolic compound naturally occurring in red raspberries, kiwifruit, peaches, and apples and reported for its potential therapeutic and nutraceutical properties. Studies in cells and rodents have suggested an important role for RK in hepatic/cardio/gastric protection and as an anti-hyperlipidemic, anti-obesity, depigmentation, and sexual maturation agent. Raspberry ketone-mediated activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-α (PPAR-α) stands out as one of its main modes of action. Although rodent studies have demonstrated the efficacious effects of RK, its mechanism remains largely unknown. In spite of a lack of reliable human research, RK is marketed as a health supplement, at very high doses. In this review, we provide a compilation of scientific research that has been conducted so far, assessing the therapeutic properties of RK in several disease conditions as well as inspiring future research before RK can be considered safe and efficacious with limited side effects as an alternative to modern medicines in the treatment of major lifestyle-based diseases.

Abstract
If mitochondrial energy availability or oxidative metabolism is altered, patients will suffer from insufficient energy supply Phosphocreatine (PCr) not only acts as an energy carrier, but also acts as an antioxidant and defensive agent to maintain the integrity and stability of the membrane, to maintain ATP homeostasis through regulating mitochondrial respiration. Meanwhile, PCr can enhance calcium balance and reduce morphological pathological changes, ultimately, PCr helps to reduce apoptosis. On the other aspect, the activities of ATP synthase and MitCK play a crucial role in the maintenance of cellular energy metabolic function. It is interesting to note, PCr not only rises the activities of ATP synthase as well as MitCK, but also promotes these two enzymatic reactions. Additionally, PCr can also inhibit mitochondrial permeability transition in a concentration-dependent manner, prevent ROS and CytC from spilling into the cytoplasm, thereby inhibit the release of proapoptotic factors caspase-3 and caspase-9, and eventually, effectively prevent LPS-induced apoptosis of cells. Understandably, PCr prevents the apoptosis caused by abnormal mitochondrial energy metabolism and has a protective role in a non-energy manner. Moreover, recent studies have shown that PCr protects cell survival through PI3K/Akt/eNOS, MAPK pathway, and inhibition of Ang II-induced NF-κB activation. Furthermore, PCr antagonizes oxidative stress through the activation of PI3K/Akt/GSK3b intracellular pathway, PI3K/AKT-PGC1α signaling pathway, while through the promotion of SIRT3 expression to maintain normal cell metabolism. Interestingly, PCr results in delaying the time to enter pathological metabolism through the delayed activation of AMPK pathway, which is different from previous studies, now we propose the hypothesis that the "miRNA-JAK2/STAT3 -CypD pathway" may take part in protecting cells from apoptosis, PCr may be further be involved in the dynamic relationship between CypD and STAT3. Furthermore, we believe that PCr and CypD would be the central link to maintain cell survival and maintain cell stability and mitochondrial repair under the mitochondrial dysfunction caused by oxidative stress. This review provides the modern progress knowledge and views on the molecular mechanism and molecular targets of PCr in a non-energy way.

Abstract
Decline in cardiac high-energy phosphate metabolism [phosphocreatine-to-ATP (PCr/ATP) ratio] and whole body metabolism increase the risk of heart failure and metabolic diseases. The aim of the present study was to assess the relationship between PCr/ATP ratio and measures of body metabolic function. A total of 35 healthy women (56+/-14.0 years of age) underwent cardiac 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy to assess PCr/ATP ratio - an index of cardiac high-energy phosphate metabolism. Fasting and 2-hour glucose levels were assessed using oral glucose tolerance test. Indirect calorimetry was performed to determine oxygen consumption and resting metabolic rate. There were no significant relationships between PCr/ATP ratio and resting metabolic rate (r=-0.09, p=0.62), oxygen consumption (r=-0.11, p=0.54), fasting glucose levels (r=-0.31, p=0.07), and 2-hour plasma glucose (r=-0.10, p=0.58). Adjusted analysis for covariates including age, body mass index, fat mass, and physical activity, had no significant influence on the relationship between PCr/ATP ratio and body metabolism. In conclusion, the lack of relationship between cardiac PCr/ATP ratio, glucose control and metabolic rate may suggest that overall metabolic function does not influence cardiac high-energy phosphate metabolism.

Abstract
Purpose: To explore the utility of phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P MRS) in identifying anthracycline-induced cardiac toxicity in patients with breast cancer. Methods: Twenty patients with newly diagnosed breast cancer receiving anthracycline-based chemotherapy had cardiac magnetic resonance assessment of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and 31P MRS to determine myocardial Phosphocreatine/Adenosine Triphosphate Ratio (PCr/ATP) at three time points: pre-, mid-, and end-chemotherapy. Plasma high sensitivity cardiac troponin-I (cTn-I) tests and electrocardiograms were also performed at these same time points. Results: Phosphocreatine/Adenosine Triphosphate did not change significantly between pre- and mid-chemo (2.16 ± 0.46 vs. 2.00 ± 0.56, p = 0.80) and pre- and end-chemo (2.16 ± 0.46 vs. 2.17 ± 0.86, p = 0.99). Mean LVEF reduced significantly by 5.1% between pre- and end-chemo (61.4 ± 4.4 vs. 56.3 ± 8.1 %, p = 0.02). Change in PCr/ATP ratios from pre- to end-chemo correlated inversely with changes in LVEF over the same period (r = −0.65, p = 0.006). Plasma cTn-I increased progressively during chemotherapy from pre- to mid-chemo (1.35 ± 0.81 to 4.40 ± 2.64 ng/L; p = 0.01) and from mid- to end-chemo (4.40 ± 2.64 to 18.33 ± 13.23 ng/L; p = 0.001). Conclusions: In this small cohort pilot study, we did not observe a clear change in mean PCr/ATP values during chemotherapy despite evidence of increased plasma cardiac biomarkers and reduced LVEF. Future similar studies should be adequately powered to take account of patient drop-out and variable changes in PCr/ATP and could include T1 and T2 mapping.

Abstract
During conditions that result in depleted circulating glucose levels, ketone bodies synthesized in the liver are necessary fuel substrates for the brain. In other organs such as the heart, the reliance on ketones for generating energy is less life threatening as the heart can utilize alternative fuel sources such as fatty acids. However, during pathophysiological conditions such as heart failure, cardiac defects in metabolic processes that normally allow for sufficient energy production from fatty acids and carbohydrates contribute to a decline in contractile function. As such, it has been proposed that the failing heart relies more on ketone bodies as an energy source than previously appreciated. Furthermore, it has been suggested that ketone bodies may function as signaling molecules that can suppress systemic and cardiac inflammation. Thus, it is possible that intentionally elevating circulating ketones may be beneficial as an adjunct treatment for heart failure. Although many approaches can be used for 'ketone therapy', each of these has their own advantages and disadvantages in the treatment of heart failure. Thus, we summarize current preclinical and clinical studies involving various types of ketone therapy in cardiac disease and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each modality as possible treatments for heart failure.

Abstract
PINK1, a serine/threonine ubiquitin kinase, and Parkin, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, work in coordination to target damaged mitochondria to the lysosome in a process called mitophagy. This review will cover what we have learned from PINK1 and Parkin knockout (KO) mice. Systemic PINK1 and Parkin KO mouse models haven't faithfully recapitulated early onset forms of Parkinson's disease found in humans with recessive mutations in these genes. However, the utilization of these mouse models has given us insight into how PINK1 and Parkin contribute to mitochondrial quality control and function in different tissues beyond the brain such as in heart and adipose tissue. Although PINK1 and Parkin KO mice have been generated over a decade ago, these models are still being used today to creatively elucidate cell-type specific functions. Recently, these mouse models have uncovered that these proteins contribute to innate immunity and cancer phenotypes.

Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 2021; 320:H613-H629.

Abstract
Creatine kinase (CK) is considered the main phosphotransfer system in the heart, important for overcoming diffusion restrictions and regulating mitochondrial respiration. It is substrate limited in creatine-deficient mice lacking l-arginine:glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT) or guanidinoacetate N-methyltranferase (GAMT). Our aim was to determine the expression, activity, and mitochondrial coupling of hexokinase (HK) and adenylate kinase (AK), as these represent alternative energy transfer systems. In permeabilized cardiomyocytes, we assessed how much endogenous ADP generated by HK, AK, or CK stimulated mitochondrial respiration and how much was channeled to mitochondria. In whole heart homogenates, and cytosolic and mitochondrial fractions, we measured the activities of AK, CK, and HK. Lastly, we assessed the expression of the major HK, AK, and CK isoforms. Overall, respiration stimulated by HK, AK, and CK was ∼25, 90, and 80%, respectively, of the maximal respiration rate, and ∼20, 0, and 25%, respectively, was channeled to the mitochondria. The activity, distribution, and expression of HK, AK, and CK did not change in GAMT knockout (KO) mice. In AGAT KO mice, we found no changes in AK, but we found a higher HK activity in the mitochondrial fraction, greater expression of HK I, but a lower stimulation of respiration by HK. Our findings suggest that mouse hearts depend less on phosphotransfer systems to facilitate ADP flux across the mitochondrial membrane. In AGAT KO mice, which are a model of pure creatine deficiency, the changes in HK may reflect changes in metabolism as well as influence mitochondrial regulation and reactive oxygen species production.NEW & NOTEWORTHY In creatine-deficient AGAT-/- and GAMT-/- mice, the myocardial creatine kinase system is substrate limited. It is unknown whether subcellular localization and mitochondrial ADP channeling by hexokinase and adenylate kinase may compensate as alternative phosphotransfer systems. Our results show no changes in adenylate kinase, which is the main alternative to creatine kinase in heart. However, we found increased expression and activity of hexokinase I in AGAT-/- cardiomyocytes. This could affect mitochondrial regulation and reactive oxygen species production.

Microbiota-Derived Metabolite Trimethylamine N-Oxide Protects Mitochondrial Energy Metabolism and Cardiac Functionality in a Rat Model of Right Ventricle Heart Failure. Front Cell Dev Biol 2021; 8:622741. [PMID: 33520996 PMCID: PMC7841203 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2020.622741] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2020] [Accepted: 12/17/2020] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim: Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) is a gut microbiota-derived metabolite synthesized in host organisms from specific food constituents, such as choline, carnitine and betaine. During the last decade, elevated TMAO levels have been proposed as biomarkers to estimate the risk of cardiometabolic diseases. However, there is still no consensus about the role of TMAO in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease since regular consumption of TMAO-rich seafood (i.e., a Mediterranean diet) is considered to be beneficial for the primary prevention of cardiovascular events. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of long-term TMAO administration on mitochondrial energy metabolism in an experimental model of right ventricle heart failure. Methods: TMAO was administered to rats at a dose of 120 mg/kg in their drinking water for 10 weeks. Then, a single subcutaneous injection of monocrotaline (MCT) (60 mg/kg) was administered to induce right ventricular dysfunction, and treatment with TMAO was continued (experimental groups: Control; TMAO; MCT; TMAO+MCT). After 4 weeks, right ventricle functionality was assessed by echocardiography, mitochondrial function and heart failure-related gene and protein expression was determined. Results: Compared to the control treatment, the administration of TMAO (120 mg/kg) for 14 weeks increased the TMAO concentration in cardiac tissues up to 14 times. MCT treatment led to impaired mitochondrial function and decreased right ventricular functional parameters. Although TMAO treatment itself decreased mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation-dependent respiration, no effect on cardiac functionality was observed. Long-term TMAO administration prevented MCT-impaired mitochondrial energy metabolism by preserving fatty acid oxidation and subsequently decreasing pyruvate metabolism. In the experimental model of right ventricle heart failure, the impact of TMAO on energy metabolism resulted in a tendency to restore right ventricular function, as indicated by echocardiographic parameters and normalized organ-to-body weight indexes. Similarly, the expression of a marker of heart failure severity, brain natriuretic peptide, was substantially increased in the MCT group but tended to be restored to control levels in the TMAO+MCT group. Conclusion: Elevated TMAO levels preserve mitochondrial energy metabolism and cardiac functionality in an experimental model of right ventricular heart failure, suggesting that under specific conditions TMAO promotes metabolic preconditioning-like effects.

Abstract
Surgical neuromodulation therapies are still considered a last resort when standard therapies have failed for patients with progressive heart failure (HF). Although a number of experimental studies have provided robust evidence of its effectiveness, the lack of strong clinical evidence discourages practitioners. Thoracic unilateral sympathectomy has been extensively studied and has failed to show significant clinical improvement in HF patients. Most recently, bilateral sympathectomy effect was associated with a high degree of success in HF models, opening the perspective to be investigated in randomized controlled clinical trials. In addition, a series of clinical trials showed that bilateral sympathectomy was associated with a decreased risk of sudden death, which is an important outcome in patients with HF. These aspects indicates that bilateral sympathectomy could be an important alternative in the treatment of HF wherein pharmacological treatment barely reaches the target dose.

Abstract
Adult striated muscle cells present highly organized structure with densely packed intracellular organelles and a very sparse cytosol accounting for only few percent of cell volume. These cells have a high and fluctuating energy demand that, in continuously working oxidative muscles, is fulfilled mainly by oxidative metabolism. ATP produced by mitochondria should be directed to the main energy consumers, ATPases of the excitation-contraction system; at the same time, ADP near ATPases should rapidly be eliminated. This is achieved by phosphotransfer kinases, the most important being creatine kinase (CK). Specific CK isoenzymes are located in mitochondria and in close proximity to ATPases, forming efficient energy shuttle between these structures. In addition to phosphotransfer kinases, ATP/ADP can be directly channeled between mitochondria co-localized with ATPases in a process called “direct adenine nucleotide channeling, DANC.” This process is highly plastic so that inactivation of the CK system increases the participation of DANC to energy supply owing to the rearrangement of cell structure. The machinery for DANC is built during postnatal development in parallel with the increase in mitochondrial mass, organization, and complexification of the cell structure. Disorganization of cell architecture remodels the mitochondrial network and decreases the efficacy of DANC, showing that this process is intimately linked to cardiomyocyte structure. Accordingly, in heart failure, disorganization of the cell structure along with decrease in mitochondrial mass reduces the efficacy of DANC and together with alteration of the CK shuttle participates in energetic deficiency contributing to contractile failure.

Abstract
Cardiac mechanical function is supported by ATP hydrolysis, which provides the chemical-free energy to drive the molecular processes underlying cardiac pumping. Physiological rates of myocardial ATP consumption require the heart to resynthesize its entire ATP pool several times per minute. In the failing heart, cardiomyocyte metabolic dysfunction leads to a reduction in the capacity for ATP synthesis and associated free energy to drive cellular processes. Yet it remains unclear if and how metabolic/energetic dysfunction that occurs during heart failure affects mechanical function of the heart. We hypothesize that changes in phosphate metabolite concentrations (ATP, ADP, inorganic phosphate) that are associated with decompensation and failure have direct roles in impeding contractile function of the myocardium in heart failure, contributing to the whole-body phenotype. To test this hypothesis, a transverse aortic constriction (TAC) rat model of pressure overload, hypertrophy, and decompensation was used to assess relationships between metrics of whole-organ pump function and myocardial energetic state. A multiscale computational model of cardiac mechanoenergetic coupling was used to identify and quantify the contribution of metabolic dysfunction to observed mechanical dysfunction. Results show an overall reduction in capacity for oxidative ATP synthesis fueled by either fatty acid or carbohydrate substrates as well as a reduction in total levels of adenine nucleotides and creatine in myocardium from TAC animals compared to sham-operated controls. Changes in phosphate metabolite levels in the TAC rats are correlated with impaired mechanical function, consistent with the overall hypothesis. Furthermore, computational analysis of myocardial metabolism and contractile dynamics predicts that increased levels of inorganic phosphate in TAC compared to control animals kinetically impair the myosin ATPase crossbridge cycle in decompensated hypertrophy/heart failure.

Abstract
The mitochondrial electron transport chain utilizes a series of electron transfer reactions to generate cellular ATP through oxidative phosphorylation. A consequence of electron transfer is the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which contributes to both homeostatic signaling as well as oxidative stress during pathology. In this graphical review we provide an overview of oxidative phosphorylation and its inter-relationship with ROS production by the electron transport chain. We also outline traditional and novel translational methodology for assessing mitochondrial energetics in health and disease.

Abstract
Cardiomyopathy is among the major clinical manifestations of heart diseases that triggers malfunctioning of the cardiovascular system. Some of the major causal factors of cardiomyopathy includes myocardial ischemia, drug-toxicity, genetic aberrations, abnormal depositions of essential elements, and redox imbalance. Diabetes, being the major comorbid of cardiovascular diseases and vice versa, further contributes to the progression of cardiomyopathy. The molecular mechanisms of action suggest that oxidative stress is among the primary factors that triggers cascading impact on cardiomyopathy. Resveratrol, a phenolic antioxidant, has the potential to quench the excessive free radicals. It is a potent antioxidant supplement that may as well be a therapeutic molecule. The review focuses on the various molecular mechanisms of action that resveratrol potentiates in reversing or attenuating the progress of diabetic and non-diabetic cardiomyopathy triggered by wide range of factors. Additionally, resveratrol also tends to preserve the healthy heart from potential damage that may be triggered by oxidative stress.

Abstract
Age-associated changes leading to a decline in cardiac structure and function contribute to the increased susceptibility and incidence of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in elderly individuals. Indeed, age is considered a risk factor for heart failure and serves as an important predictor for poor prognosis in elderly individuals. Effects stemming from chronic, low-grade inflammation, inflammaging, are considered important determinants in cardiac health; however, our understanding of the mechanisms involved remains unresolved. A steady decline in mitochondrial function is recognized as an important biological consequence found in the aging heart which contributes to the development of heart failure. Dysfunctional mitochondria contribute to increased cellular stress and an innate immune response by activating the NLRP-3 inflammasomes, which have a role in inflammaging and age-related CVD pathogenesis. Emerging evidence suggests a protective role for CYP450 epoxygenase metabolites of N-3 and N-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), epoxylipids, which modulate various aspects of the immune system and protect mitochondria. In this article, we provide insight into the potential roles N-3 and N-6 PUFA have modulating mitochondria, inflammaging and heart failure.

Abstract
High mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy numbers are essential for oogenesis and embryogenesis and correlate with fertility of oocytes and viability of embryos. To understand the pathology and mechanisms associated with low mtDNA copy numbers, we knocked down mitochondrial transcription factor A (tfam), a regulator of mtDNA replication, during early zebrafish development. Reduction of tfam using a splice-modifying morpholino (MO) resulted in a 42 ± 17% decrease in mtDNA copy number in embryos at 4 days post fertilization. Morphant embryos displayed abnormal development of the eye, brain, heart, and muscle, as well as a 50 ± 22% decrease in ATP production. Transcriptome analysis revealed a decrease in protein-encoding transcripts from the heavy strand of the mtDNA, and down-regulation of genes involved in haem production and the metabolism of metabolites, which appear to trigger increased rRNA and tRNA synthesis in the nucleoli. However, this stress or compensatory response appears to fall short as pathology emerges and expression of genes related to eye development are severely down-regulated. Taken together, this study highlights the importance of sufficient mtDNA copies for early zebrafish development. Zebrafish is an excellent model to manipulate the mtDNA bottleneck and study its effect on embryogenesis rapidly and in large numbers of offspring.

Abstract
Cardiac metabolism and function are intrinsically linked. High-energy phosphates occupy a central and obligate position in cardiac metabolism, coupling oxygen and substrate fuel delivery to the myocardium with external work. This insight underlies the widespread clinical use of ischaemia testing. However, other deficits in high-energy phosphate metabolism (not secondary to supply-demand mismatch of oxygen and substrate fuels) may also be documented, and are of particular interest when found in the context of structural heart disease. This review introduces the scope of deficits in high-energy phosphate metabolism that may be observed in the myocardium, how to assess for them, and how they might be interpreted.

Abstract
Ischemic heart disease is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Physical exercise is an effective lifestyle intervention to reduce the risk factors for cardiovascular disease and also to improve cardiac function and survival in patients with ischemic heart disease. Among the strategies that contribute to reduce heart damages during ischemia and reperfusion, regular physical exercise is efficient both in rodent experimental models and in humans. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms of the cardioprotective effects of exercise remain unclear. During ischemia and reperfusion, mitochondria are crucial players in cell death, but also in cell survival. Although exercise training can influence mitochondrial function, the consequences on heart sensitivity to ischemic insults remain elusive. In this review, we describe the effects of physical activity on cardiac mitochondria and their potential key role in exercise-induced cardioprotection against ischemia-reperfusion damage. Based on recent scientific data, we discuss the role of different pathways that might help to explain why mitochondria are a key target of exercise-induced cardioprotection.

Cardiovasc Res 2020; 115:530-545. [PMID: 30165480 DOI: 10.1093/cvr/cvy217] [Citation(s) in RCA: 74] [Impact Index Per Article: 18.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2018] [Revised: 07/01/2018] [Accepted: 08/22/2018] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS Cardiac hypertrophy is characterized by a shift in metabolic substrate utilization, but the molecular events underlying the metabolic remodelling remain poorly understood. We explored metabolic remodelling and mitochondrial dysfunction in cardiac hypertrophy and investigated the cardioprotective effects of choline. METHODS AND RESULTS The experiments were conducted using a model of ventricular hypertrophy by partially banding the abdominal aorta of Sprague Dawley rats. Cardiomyocyte size and cardiac fibrosis were significantly increased in hypertrophic hearts. In vitro cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was induced by exposing neonatal rat cardiomyocytes to angiotensin II (Ang II) (10-6 M, 24 h). Choline attenuated the mito-nuclear protein imbalance and activated the mitochondrial-unfolded protein response (UPRmt) in the heart, thereby preserving the ultrastructure and function of mitochondria in the context of cardiac hypertrophy. Moreover, choline inhibited myocardial metabolic dysfunction by promoting the expression of proteins involved in ketone body and fatty acid metabolism in response to pressure overload, accompanied by the activation of sirtuin 3/AMP-activated protein kinase (SIRT3-AMPK) signalling. In vitro analyses demonstrated that SIRT3 siRNA diminished choline-mediated activation of ketone body metabolism and UPRmt, as well as inhibition of hypertrophic signals. Intriguingly, serum from choline-treated abdominal aorta banding models (where β-hydroxybutyrate was increased) attenuated Ang II-induced myocyte hypertrophy, which indicates that β-hydroxybutyrate is important for the cardioprotective effects of choline. CONCLUSION Choline attenuated cardiac dysfunction by modulating the expression of proteins involved in ketone body and fatty acid metabolism, and induction of UPRmt; this was likely mediated by activation of the SIRT3-AMPK pathway. Taken together, these results identify SIRT3-AMPK as a key cardiac transcriptional regulator that helps orchestrate an adaptive metabolic response to cardiac stress. Choline treatment may represent a new therapeutic strategy for optimizing myocardial metabolism in the context of hypertrophy and heart failure.

Resveratrol and Diabetic Cardiomyopathy: Focusing on the Protective Signaling Mechanisms. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2020; 2020:7051845.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common cardiovascular complication of diabetic mellitus that is characterized by diastolic disorder in the early stage and clinical heart failure in the later stage. Presently, DCM is considered one of the major causes of death in diabetic patients. Resveratrol (RSV), a naturally occurring stilbene, is widely reported as a cardioprotective substance in many heart diseases. Thus far, the specific roles of RSV in DCM prevention and treatment have attracted great attention. Here, we discuss the roles of RSV in DCM by focusing its downstream targets from both in vivo and in vitro studies. Among such targets, Sirtuins 1/3 and AMP-activated kinase have been identified as key mediators that induce cardioprotection during hyperglycemia. In addition, many other signaling molecules (e.g., forkhead box-O3a and extracellular regulated protein kinases) are also regulated in the presence of RSV and exert beneficial effects such as opposing oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in cardiomyocytes exposed to high-glucose conditions. The beneficial potential of an RSV/stem cell cotherapy is also reviewed as a promising therapeutic strategy for preventing the development of DCM.

Ablating the Rab-GTPase activating protein TBC1D1 predisposes rats to high-fat diet-induced cardiomyopathy. J Physiol 2020; 598:683-697. [PMID: 31845331 DOI: 10.1113/jp279042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2019] [Accepted: 12/12/2019] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
KEY POINTS Although the role of TBC1D1 within the heart remains unknown, expression of TBC1D1 increases in the left ventricle following an acute infarction, suggesting a biological importance within this tissue. We investigated the mechanistic role of TBC1D1 within the heart, aiming to establish the consequences of attenuating TBC1D1 signalling in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy, as well as to determine potential sex differences. TBC1D1 ablation increased plasma membrane fatty acid binding protein content and myocardial palmitate oxidation. Following high-fat feeding, TBC1D1 ablation dramatically increased fibrosis and induced end-diastolic dysfunction in both male and female rats in the absence of changes in mitochondrial bioenergetics. Altogether, independent of sex, ablating TBC1D1 predisposes the left ventricle to pathological remodelling following high-fat feeding, and suggests TBC1D1 protects against diabetic cardiomyopathy. ABSTRACT TBC1D1, a Rab-GTPase activating protein, is involved in the regulation of glucose handling and substrate metabolism within skeletal muscle, and is essential for maintaining pancreatic β-cell mass and insulin secretion. However, the function of TBC1D1 within the heart is largely unknown. Therefore, we examined the role of TBC1D1 in the left ventricle and the functional consequence of ablating TBC1D1 on the susceptibility to high-fat diet-induced abnormalities. Since mutations within TBC1D1 (R125W) display stronger associations with clinical parameters in women, we further examined possible sex differences in the predisposition to diabetic cardiomyopathy. In control-fed animals, TBC1D1 ablation did not alter insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, or echocardiogram parameters, but increased accumulation of a plasma membrane fatty acid transporter and the capacity for palmitate oxidation. When challenged with an 8 week high-fat diet, TBC1D1 knockout rats displayed a four-fold increase in fibrosis compared to wild-type animals, and this was associated with diastolic dysfunction, suggesting a predisposition to diet-induced cardiomyopathy. Interestingly, high-fat feeding only induced cardiac hypertrophy in male TBC1D1 knockout animals, implicating a possible sex difference. Mitochondrial respiratory capacity and substrate sensitivity to pyruvate and ADP were not altered by diet or TBC1D1 ablation, nor were markers of oxidative stress, or indices of overt heart failure. Altogether, independent of sex, ablation of TBC1D1 not only increased the susceptibility to high-fat diet-induced diastolic dysfunction and left ventricular fibrosis, independent of sex, but also predisposed male animals to the development of cardiac hypertrophy. These data suggest that TBC1D1 may exert cardioprotective effects in the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Purpose: Ionizing radiation is a risk factor to the whole organism, including the heart. Cardiac damage is considered to be a late effect of radiation exposure. While the acute cardiotoxicity of high doses is well characterized, the knowledge about nature and magnitude of the cardiac risk following lower doses exposure is incomplete. It has been shown that the cardiotoxic effects of radiation are source-, dose- and time-dependent. This paper provides an overview on these dependencies with regard to the molecular responses at the cellular and tissue levels. Main focus is put on the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR)-based and Mass Spectrometry (MS)-based metabolomic approaches in search of toxicity markers of relatively small doses of radiation.Conclusions: Available literature indicates that radiation exposure affects metabolites associated with: energy production, degradation of proteins and cell membranes, expression of proteins and stress response. Such effects are common for both animal and human studies. However, the specific metabolic response depends on several factors, including the examined organ. Radiation metabolomics can be used to explain the mechanisms of development of radiation-induced heart disease and to find an organ-specific biomarker of radiation exposure. The main aim of this review was to collect the information on the human cardiotoxicity biomarkers. In addition it also summarizes results of the studies on the metabolic responses to ionizing radiation for other organs, as well as the comparative data concerning animal studies.

Abstract
Heart failure is a consequence of progression hypoxia-dependent tissue damages. Therapeutic approaches to restore and/or protect the healthy cardiac tissue have largely failed and remain a major challenge of regenerative medicine. The myo-inositol trispyrophosphate (ITPP) is a modifier of haemoglobin which enters the red blood cells and modifies the haemoglobin properties, allowing for easier and better delivery of oxygen by the blood. Here, we show that this treatment approach in an in vivo model of myocardial infarction (MI) results in an efficient protection from heart failure, and we demonstrate the recovery effect on post-MI left ventricular remodelling in the rat model. Cultured cardiomyocytes used to study the molecular mechanism of action of ITPP in vitro displayed the fast stimulation of HIF-1 upon hypoxic conditions. HIF-1 overexpression was prevented by ITPP when incorporated into red blood cells applied in a model of blood-perfused cardiomyocytes coupling the dynamic shear stress effect to the enhanced O2 supply by modification of haemoglobin ability to release O2 in hypoxia. ITPP treatment appears a breakthrough strategy for the efficient and safe treatment of hypoxia- or ischaemia-induced injury of cardiac tissue.

Abstract
Elucidation of the mitochondrial regulatory mechanisms for the understanding of muscle bioenergetics and the role of mitochondria is a fundamental problem in cellular physiology and pathophysiology. The cytoskeleton (microtubules, intermediate filaments, microfilaments) plays a central role in the maintenance of mitochondrial shape, location, and motility. In addition, numerous interactions between cytoskeletal proteins and mitochondria can actively participate in the regulation of mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation. In cardiac and skeletal muscles, mitochondrial positions are tightly fixed, providing their regular arrangement and numerous interactions with other cellular structures such as sarcoplasmic reticulum and cytoskeleton. This can involve association of cytoskeletal proteins with voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), thereby, governing the permeability of the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) to metabolites, and regulating cell energy metabolism. Cardiomyocytes and myocardial fibers demonstrate regular arrangement of tubulin beta-II isoform entirely co-localized with mitochondria, in contrast to other isoforms of tubulin. This observation suggests the participation of tubulin beta-II in the regulation of OMM permeability through interaction with VDAC. The OMM permeability is also regulated by the specific isoform of cytolinker protein plectin. This review summarizes and discusses previous studies on the role of cytoskeletal proteins in the regulation of energy metabolism and mitochondrial function, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, and energy transfer.

Abstract
Therapies intended to mitigate cardiovascular complications cannot be applied in practice without detailed knowledge of molecular mechanisms. Mitochondria, as the end-effector of cardioprotection, represent one of the possible therapeutic approaches. The present review provides an overview of factors affecting the regulation processes of mitochondria at the level of mitochondrial permeability transition pores (mPTP) resulting in comprehensive myocardial protection. The regulation of mPTP seems to be an important part of the mechanisms for maintaining the energy equilibrium of the heart under pathological conditions. Mitochondrial connexin 43 is involved in the regulation process by inhibition of mPTP opening. These individual cardioprotective mechanisms can be interconnected in the process of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation resulting in the maintenance of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. In this context, the degree of mitochondrial membrane fluidity appears to be a key factor in the preservation of ATP synthase rotation required for ATP formation. Moreover, changes in the composition of the cardiolipin’s structure in the mitochondrial membrane can significantly affect the energy system under unfavorable conditions. This review aims to elucidate functional and structural changes of cardiac mitochondria subjected to preconditioning, with an emphasis on signaling pathways leading to mitochondrial energy maintenance during partial oxygen deprivation.
