Abstract
Cardiovascular disease is a main cause of mortality in the world and the highest incidence of all diseases. However, the mechanism of the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease is still unclear, and we need to continue to explore its mechanism of action. The occurrence and development of cardiovascular disease is significantly associated with genetic abnormalities, and gene expression is affected by transcriptional regulation. In this complex process, the protein-protein interaction promotes the RNA polymerase II to the initiation site. And in this process of transcriptional regulation, transcriptional cofactors are responsible for passing cues from enhancers to promoters and promoting the binding of RNA polymerases to promoters, so transcription cofactors playing a key role in gene expression regulation. There is growing evidence that transcriptional cofactors play a critical role in cardiovascular disease. Transcriptional cofactors can promote or inhibit transcription by affecting the function of transcription factors. It can affect the initiation and elongation process of transcription by forming complexes with transcription factors, which are important for the stabilization of DNA rings. It can also act as a protein that interacts with other proteins to affect the expression of other genes. Therefore, the aim of this overview is to summarize the effect of some transcriptional cofactors such as BRD4, EP300, MED1, EZH2, YAP, SIRT6 in cardiovascular disease and to provide a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cardiovascular disease.

Nie Y, Song C, Huang H, Mao S, Ding K, Tang H. Chromatin modifiers in human disease: from functional roles to regulatory mechanisms. MOLECULAR BIOMEDICINE 2024; 5:12. [PMID: 38584203 PMCID: PMC10999406 DOI: 10.1186/s43556-024-00175-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/09/2024] Open
Abstract
The field of transcriptional regulation has revealed the vital role of chromatin modifiers in human diseases from the beginning of functional exploration to the process of participating in many types of disease regulatory mechanisms. Chromatin modifiers are a class of enzymes that can catalyze the chemical conversion of pyrimidine residues or amino acid residues, including histone modifiers, DNA methyltransferases, and chromatin remodeling complexes. Chromatin modifiers assist in the formation of transcriptional regulatory circuits between transcription factors, enhancers, and promoters by regulating chromatin accessibility and the ability of transcription factors to acquire DNA. This is achieved by recruiting associated proteins and RNA polymerases. They modify the physical contact between cis-regulatory factor elements, transcription factors, and chromatin DNA to influence transcriptional regulatory processes. Then, abnormal chromatin perturbations can impair the homeostasis of organs, tissues, and cells, leading to diseases. The review offers a comprehensive elucidation on the function and regulatory mechanism of chromatin modifiers, thereby highlighting their indispensability in the development of diseases. Furthermore, this underscores the potential of chromatin modifiers as biomarkers, which may enable early disease diagnosis. With the aid of this paper, a deeper understanding of the role of chromatin modifiers in the pathogenesis of diseases can be gained, which could help in devising effective diagnostic and therapeutic interventions.

Anserine, a Histidine-Containing Dipeptide, Suppresses Pressure Overload-Induced Systolic Dysfunction by Inhibiting Histone Acetyltransferase Activity of p300 in Mice. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2344. [PMID: 38397020 PMCID: PMC10889817 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25042344] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 02/14/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Anserine, an imidazole dipeptide, is present in the muscles of birds and fish and has various bioactivities, such as anti-inflammatory and anti-fatigue effects. However, the effect of anserine on the development of heart failure remains unknown. We cultured primary cardiomyocytes with 0.03 mM to 10 mM anserine and stimulated them with phenylephrine for 48 h. Anserine significantly suppressed the phenylephrine-induced increases in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, ANF and BNP mRNA levels, and histone H3K9 acetylation. An in vitro histone acetyltransferase (HAT) assay showed that anserine directly suppressed p300-HAT activity with an IC50 of 1.87 mM. Subsequently, 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) and were randomly assigned to receive daily oral treatment with anserine-containing material, Marine Active® (60 or 200 mg/kg anserine) or vehicle for 8 weeks. Echocardiography revealed that anserine 200 mg/kg significantly prevented the TAC-induced increase in left ventricular posterior wall thickness and the decrease in left ventricular fractional shortening. Moreover, anserine significantly suppressed the TAC-induced acetylation of histone H3K9. These results indicate that anserine suppresses TAC-induced systolic dysfunction, at least in part, by inhibiting p300-HAT activity. Anserine may be used as a pharmacological agent for human heart failure therapy.

Abstract
Fibrosis is a condition characterized by the excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins in tissues, leading to organ dysfunction and failure. Recent studies have identified EP300, a histone acetyltransferase, as a crucial regulator of the epigenetic changes that contribute to fibrosis. In fact, EP300-mediated acetylation of histones alters global chromatin structure and gene expression, promoting the development and progression of fibrosis. Here, we review the role of EP300-mediated epigenetic regulation in multi-organ fibrosis and its potential as a therapeutic target. We discuss the preclinical evidence that suggests that EP300 inhibition can attenuate fibrosis-related molecular processes, including extracellular matrix deposition, inflammation, and epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. We also highlight the contributions of small molecule inhibitors and gene therapy approaches targeting EP300 as novel therapies against fibrosis.

Abstract
Hypertrophic stress-induced cardiac remodeling is a compensatory mechanism associated with cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and cardiac fibrosis. Continuation of this response eventually leads to heart failure. The histone acetyltransferase p300 plays an important role in the development of heart failure, and may be a target for heart failure therapy. The phenolic phytochemical 6-shogaol, a pungent component of raw ginger, has various bioactive effects; however, its effect on cardiovascular diseases has not been investigated. One micromolar of 6-shogaol suppressed phenylephrine (PE)-induced increases in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in rat primary cultured cardiomyocytes. In rat primary cultured cardiac fibroblasts, 6-shogaol suppressed transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β)-induced increases in L-proline incorporation. It also blocked PE- and TGF-β-induced increases in histone H3K9 acetylation in the same cells and in vitro. An in vitro p300-HAT assay revealed that 6-shogaol suppressed histone acetylation. The mice underwent transverse aortic constriction (TAC) surgery, and were administered 0.2 or 1 mg/kg of 6-shogaol daily for 8 weeks. 6-shogaol prevented TAC-induced systolic dysfunction and cardiac hypertrophy in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, it also significantly inhibited TAC-induced increases in histone H3K9 acetylation. These results suggest that 6-shogaol may ameliorate heart failure through a variety of mechanisms, including the inhibition of p300-HAT activity.

Abstract
Heart failure results from various physiological and pathological stimuli that lead to cardiac hypertrophy. This pathological process is common in several cardiovascular diseases and ultimately leads to heart failure. The development of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure involves reprogramming of gene expression, a process that is highly dependent on epigenetic regulation. Histone acetylation is dynamically regulated by cardiac stress. Histone acetyltransferases play an important role in epigenetic remodeling in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. The regulation of histone acetyltransferases serves as a bridge between signal transduction and downstream gene reprogramming. Investigating the changes in histone acetyltransferases and histone modification sites in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure will provide new therapeutic strategies to treat these diseases. This review summarizes the association of histone acetylation sites and histone acetylases with cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure, with emphasis on histone acetylation sites.

Diabetes and Its Cardiovascular Complications: Potential Role of the Acetyltransferase p300. Cells 2023; 12:cells12030431. [PMID: 36766773 PMCID: PMC9914144 DOI: 10.3390/cells12030431] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2022] [Revised: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2023] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Diabetes has been shown to accelerate vascular senescence, which is associated with chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, both implicated in the development of endothelial dysfunction. This condition represents the initial alteration linking diabetes to related cardiovascular (CV) complications. Recently, it has been hypothesised that the acetyltransferase, p300, may contribute to establishing an early vascular senescent phenotype, playing a relevant role in diabetes-associated inflammation and oxidative stress, which drive endothelial dysfunction. Specifically, p300 can modulate vascular inflammation through epigenetic mechanisms and transcription factors acetylation. Indeed, it regulates the inflammatory pathway by interacting with nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells p65 subunit (NF-κB p65) or by inducing its acetylation, suggesting a crucial role of p300 as a bridge between NF-κB p65 and the transcriptional machinery. Additionally, p300-mediated epigenetic modifications could be upstream of the activation of inflammatory cytokines, and they may induce oxidative stress by affecting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Because several in vitro and in vivo studies shed light on the potential use of acetyltransferase inhibitors, a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying the role of p300 in diabetic vascular dysfunction could help in finding new strategies for the clinical management of CV diseases related to diabetes.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of metformin on the differentiation of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells into chondrocytes with a hypertrophic phenotype and related mechanisms. Methods: BMSCs were induced to differentiate into cartilage in vitro. The mRNA
expression of chondrocyte markers and hypertrophic markers was analyzed. BMSCs were induced in vitro with metformincontaining and metformin-free chondrogenic medium, and Col2, SOX9, Runx2, and Col10 mRNA expression and AMPK protein expression in the metformin group and the control group
were analyzed. Results: BMSCs were positive after induction into chondrocytes. The mRNA expression of Col2 and SOX9 was significantly increased on day 7. The mRNA expression of Runx2 and Col10 was significantly elevated at 14 days. Treatment with metformin at a concentration of 10 mM
significantly reduced the cell viability of BMSCs. Significantly more Col2 and SOX9 mRNA expression was present in the experimental group than in the control group, whereas Runx2 and Col10 mRNA levels were significantly lower. In addition, AMPK protein expression significantly improved when
compared to the control group. Conclusion: Metformin inhibits the differentiation of BMSCs into chondrocytes with a hypertrophic phenotype; metformin activates AMPK during inhibition of the differentiation of BMSCs into chondrocytes with a hypertrophic phenotype.

Abstract
Lysine acetylation is a highly conserved mechanism that affects several biological processes such as cell growth, metabolism, enzymatic activity, subcellular localization of proteins, gene transcription or chromatin structure. This post-translational modification, mainly regulated by lysine acetyltransferase (KAT) and lysine deacetylase (KDAC) enzymes, can occur on histone or non-histone proteins. Several studies have demonstrated that dysregulated acetylation is involved in cardiac dysfunction, associated with metabolic disorder or heart failure. Since the prevalence of obesity, type 2 diabetes or heart failure rises and represents a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide, cardiac acetylation may constitute a crucial pathway that could contribute to disease development. In this review, we summarize the mechanisms involved in the regulation of cardiac acetylation and its roles in physiological conditions. In addition, we highlight the effects of cardiac acetylation in physiopathology, with a focus on obesity, type 2 diabetes and heart failure. This review sheds light on the major role of acetylation in cardiovascular diseases and emphasizes KATs and KDACs as potential therapeutic targets for heart failure.

Pyrazole-Curcumin Suppresses Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy by Disrupting the CDK9/CyclinT1 Complex. Pharmaceutics 2022; 14:pharmaceutics14061269. [PMID: 35745840 PMCID: PMC9227296 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14061269] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2022] [Revised: 06/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
The intrinsic histone acetyltransferase (HAT), p300, has an important role in the development and progression of heart failure. Curcumin (CUR), a natural p300-specific HAT inhibitor, suppresses hypertrophic responses and prevents deterioration of left-ventricular systolic function in heart-failure models. However, few structure–activity relationship studies on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy using CUR have been conducted. To evaluate if prenylated pyrazolo curcumin (PPC) and curcumin pyrazole (PyrC) can suppress cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, cultured cardiomyocytes were treated with CUR, PPC, or PyrC and then stimulated with phenylephrine (PE). PE-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was inhibited by PyrC but not PPC at a lower concentration than CUR. Western blotting showed that PyrC suppressed PE-induced histone acetylation. However, an in vitro HAT assay showed that PyrC did not directly inhibit p300-HAT activity. As Cdk9 phosphorylates both RNA polymerase II and p300 and increases p300-HAT activity, the effects of CUR and PyrC on the kinase activity of Cdk9 were examined. Phosphorylation of p300 by Cdk9 was suppressed by PyrC. Immunoprecipitation-WB showed that PyrC inhibits Cdk9 binding to CyclinT1 in cultured cardiomyocytes. PyrC may prevent cardiomyocyte hypertrophic responses by indirectly suppressing both p300-HAT activity and RNA polymerase II transcription elongation activity via inhibition of Cdk9 kinase activity.

Ecklonia stolonifera Okamura Extract Suppresses Myocardial Infarction-Induced Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction by Inhibiting p300-HAT Activity. Nutrients 2022; 14:580.

Abstract
Ecklonia stolonifera Okamura extract (ESE) has been reported to have various bioactive effects, but its effects on cardiovascular disease have not yet been investigated. First, primary neonatal rat cultured cardiomyocytes were treated with ESE and stimulated with phenylephrine (PE) for 48 h. ESE (1000 µg/mL) significantly suppressed PE-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, hypertrophy-related gene transcription, and the acetylation of histone H3K9. An in vitro p300-HAT assay indicated that ESE directly inhibited p300-HAT activity. Next, one week after myocardial infarction (MI) surgery, rats (left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) < 40%) were randomly assigned to three groups: vehicle (saline, n = 9), ESE (0.3 g/kg, n = 10), or ESE (1 g/kg, n = 10). Daily oral administration was carried out for 8 weeks. After treatment, LVFS was significantly higher in the ESE (1 g/kg) group than in the vehicle group. The ESE treatments also significantly suppressed MI-induced increases in myocardial cell diameter, perivascular fibrosis, hypertrophy- and fibrosis-related gene transcription, and the acetylation of histone H3K9. These results suggest that ESE suppressed both hypertrophic responses in cardiomyocytes and the development of heart failure in rats by inhibiting p300-HAT activity. Thus, this dietary extract is a potential novel therapeutic strategy for heart failure in humans.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2021; 14:ph14121268.

Abstract
Drug repositioning has recently emerged as a strategy for developing new treatments at low cost. In this study, we used a library of approved drugs to screen for compounds that suppress cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. We identified the antiplatelet drug sarpogrelate, a selective serotonin-2A (5-HT2A) receptor antagonist, and investigated the drug's anti-hypertrophic effect in cultured cardiomyocytes and its effect on heart failure in vivo. Primary cultured cardiomyocytes pretreated with sarpogrelate were stimulated with angiotensin II, endothelin-1, or phenylephrine. Immunofluorescence staining showed that sarpogrelate suppressed the cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by each of the stimuli. Western blotting analysis revealed that 5-HT2A receptor level was not changed by phenylephrine, and that sarpogrelate suppressed phenylephrine-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and GATA4. C57BL/6J male mice were subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) surgery followed by daily oral administration of sarpogrelate for 8 weeks. Echocardiography showed that 5 mg/kg of sarpogrelate suppressed TAC-induced cardiac hypertrophy and systolic dysfunction. Western blotting revealed that sarpogrelate suppressed TAC-induced phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and GATA4. These results indicate that sarpogrelate suppresses the development of heart failure and that it does so at least in part by inhibiting the ERK1/2-GATA4 signaling pathway.

Effects of Metformin in Heart Failure: From Pathophysiological Rationale to Clinical Evidence. Biomolecules 2021; 11:biom11121834. [PMID: 34944478 PMCID: PMC8698925 DOI: 10.3390/biom11121834] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2021] [Revised: 11/26/2021] [Accepted: 12/01/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a worldwide major health burden and heart failure (HF) is the most common cardiovascular (CV) complication in affected patients. Therefore, identifying the best pharmacological approach for glycemic control, which is also useful to prevent and ameliorate the prognosis of HF, represents a crucial issue. Currently, the choice is between the new drugs sodium/glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors that have consistently shown in large CV outcome trials (CVOTs) to reduce the risk of HF-related outcomes in T2DM, and metformin, an old medicament that might end up relegated to the background while exerting interesting protective effects on multiple organs among which include heart failure. When compared with other antihyperglycemic medications, metformin has been demonstrated to be safe and to lower morbidity and mortality for HF, even if these results are difficult to interpret as they emerged mainly from observational studies. Meta-analyses of randomized controlled clinical trials have not produced positive results on the risk or clinical course of HF and sadly, large CV outcome trials are lacking. The point of force of metformin with respect to new diabetic drugs is the amount of data from experimental investigations that, for more than twenty years, still continues to provide mechanistic explanations of the several favorable actions in heart failure such as, the improvement of the myocardial energy metabolic status by modulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, the attenuation of oxidative stress and inflammation, and the inhibition of myocardial cell apoptosis, leading to reduced cardiac remodeling and preserved left ventricular function. In the hope that specific large-scale trials will be carried out to definitively establish the metformin benefit in terms of HF failure outcomes, we reviewed the literature in this field, summarizing the available evidence from experimental and clinical studies reporting on effects in heart metabolism, function, and structure, and the prominent pathophysiological mechanisms involved.
