Hui W, Wenhua S, Shuojie Z, Lulin W, Panpan Z, Tongtong Z, Xiaoli X, Juhua D. How does NFAT3 regulate the occurrence of cardiac hypertrophy? IJC HEART & VASCULATURE 2023; 48:101271. [PMID: 37753338 PMCID: PMC10518445 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcha.2023.101271] [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: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 08/24/2023] [Accepted: 09/08/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023]
Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy is initially an adaptive response to physiological and pathological stimuli. Although pathological myocardial hypertrophy is the main cause of morbidity and mortality, our understanding of its mechanism is still weak. NFAT3 (nuclear factor of activated T-cell-3) is a member of the nuclear factor of the activated T cells (NFAT) family. NFAT3 plays a critical role in regulating the expression of cardiac hypertrophy genes by inducing their transcription. Recently, accumulating evidence has indicated that NFAT3 is a potent regulator of the progression of cardiac hypertrophy. This review, for the first time, summarizes the current studies on NFAT3 in cardiac hypertrophy, including the pathophysiological processes and the underlying pathological mechanism, focusing on the nuclear translocation and transcriptional function of NFAT3. This review will provide deep insight into the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy and a theoretical basis for identifying new therapeutic targets in the NFAT3 network.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are a matter of concern worldwide, and mitochondrial dysfunction is one of the major contributing factors. Vascular endothelial dysfunction has a major role in the development of atherosclerosis because of the abnormal chemokine secretion, inflammatory mediators, enhancement of LDL oxidation, cytokine elevation, and smooth muscle cell proliferation. Endothelial cells transfer oxygen from the pulmonary circulatory system to the tissue surrounding the blood vessels, and a majority of oxygen is transferred to the myocardium by endothelial cells, which utilise a small amount of oxygen to generate ATP. Free radicals of oxide are produced by mitochondria, which are responsible for cellular oxygen uptake. Increased mitochondrial ROS generation and reduction in agonist-stimulated eNOS activation and nitric oxide bioavailability were directly linked to the observed change in mitochondrial dynamics, resulting in various CVDs and endothelial dysfunction. Presently, the manuscript mainly focuses on endothelial dysfunction, providing a deep understanding of the various features of mitochondrial mechanisms that are used to modulate endothelial dysfunction. We talk about recent findings and approaches that may make it possible to detect mitochondrial dysfunction as a potential biomarker for risk assessment and diagnosis of endothelial dysfunction. In the end, we cover several targets that may reduce mitochondrial dysfunction through both direct and indirect processes and assess the impact of several different classes of drugs in the context of endothelial dysfunction.

Abstract
During the development of heart failure (HF), the capacity for cardiomyocyte (CM) fatty acid oxidation (FAO) and ATP production is progressively diminished, contributing to pathologic cardiac hypertrophy and contractile dysfunction. Receptor-interacting protein 140 (RIP140, encoded by Nrip1) has been shown to function as a transcriptional corepressor of oxidative metabolism. We found that mice with striated muscle deficiency of RIP140 (strNrip1-/-) exhibited increased expression of a broad array of genes involved in mitochondrial energy metabolism and contractile function in heart and skeletal muscle. strNrip1-/- mice were resistant to the development of pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy, and CM-specific RIP140-deficient (csNrip1-/-) mice were protected against the development of HF caused by pressure overload combined with myocardial infarction. Genomic enhancers activated by RIP140 deficiency in CMs were enriched in binding motifs for transcriptional regulators of mitochondrial function (estrogen-related receptor) and cardiac contractile proteins (myocyte enhancer factor 2). Consistent with a role in the control of cardiac fatty acid oxidation, loss of RIP140 in heart resulted in augmented triacylglyceride turnover and fatty acid utilization. We conclude that RIP140 functions as a suppressor of a transcriptional regulatory network that controls cardiac fuel metabolism and contractile function, representing a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of HF.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunctions have been described in Down syndrome (DS) caused by either partial or full trisomy of chromosome 21 (HSA21). Mitochondria play a crucial role in various vital functions in eukaryotic cells, especially in energy production, calcium homeostasis and programmed cell death. The function of mitochondria is primarily regulated by genes encoded in the mitochondrion and nucleus. Many genes on HSA21 are involved in oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and regulation of mitochondrial functions. This review highlights the HSA21 dosage-sensitive nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes associated with overexpression-related phenotypes seen in DS. This includes impaired mitochondrial dynamics, structural defects and dysregulated bioenergetic profiles such as OXPHOS deficiency and reduced ATP production. Various therapeutic approaches for modulating energy deficits in DS, effects and molecular mechanism of gene therapy and drugs that exert protective effects through modulation of mitochondrial function and attenuation of oxidative stress in DS cells were discussed. It is prudent that improving DS pathophysiological conditions or quality of life may be feasible by targeting something as simple as cellular mitochondrial biogenesis and function.

Abstract
Down syndrome (DS) is one of the common genetic disorders caused by the trisomy of human chromosome 21 (HSA21). Mitochondrial dysfunction and redox imbalance play important roles in DS pathology, and altered dopaminergic regulation has been demonstrated in the brain of individuals with DS. However, the pathological association of these elements is not yet fully understood. In this study, we analyzed dopaminergic neurons (DNs) differentiated from deciduous teeth‐derived stem cells of children with DS or healthy control children. As previously observed in the analysis of a single case of DS, compared to controls, patient‐derived DNs (DS‐DNs) displayed shorter neurite outgrowth and fewer branches, as well as downregulated vesicular monoamine transporter 2 and upregulated dopamine transporter 1, both of which are key regulators of dopamine homeostasis in DNs. In agreement with these expression profiles, DS‐DNs accumulated dopamine intracellularly and had increased levels of cellular and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS). DS‐DNs showed downregulation of non‐canonical Notch ligand, delta‐like 1, which may contribute to dopamine accumulation and increased ROS levels through DAT1 upregulation. Furthermore, DS‐DNs showed mitochondrial dysfunction in consistent with lower expression of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor‐gamma coactivator 1 alpha (PGC‐1α) and upregulation of a HSA21‐encoded negative regulator of PGC‐1α, nuclear receptor‐interacting protein 1. These results suggest that dysregulated dopamine homeostasis may participate in oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction of the dopaminergic system in DS.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM), a grade IV glioma, is responsible for the highest years of potential life lost among cancers. The poor prognosis is attributable to its high recurrence rate, caused in part by the development of resistance to chemotherapy. Receptor-interacting protein 140 (RIP140) is a very versatile coregulator of nuclear receptors and transcription factors. Although many of the pathways regulated by RIP140 contribute significantly to cancer progression, the function of RIP140 in GBM remains to be determined. In this study, we found that higher RIP140 expression was associated with prolonged survival in patients with newly diagnosed GBM. Intracellular RIP140 levels were increased after E2F1 activation following temozolomide (TMZ) treatment, which in turn modulated the expression of E2F1-targeted apoptosis-related genes. Overexpression of RIP140 reduced glioma cell proliferation and migration, induced cellular apoptosis, and sensitized GBM cells to TMZ. Conversely, knockdown of RIP140 increased TMZ resistance. Taken together, our results suggest that RIP140 prolongs the survival of patients with GBM both by inhibiting tumor cell proliferation and migration and by increasing cellular sensitivity to chemotherapy. This study helps improve our understanding of glioma recurrence and may facilitate the development of more effective treatments.

Abstract
Down syndrome is the most common genomic disorder of intellectual disability and is caused by trisomy of chromosome 21. Several genes in this chromosome repress mitochondrial biogenesis. The goal of this study was to evaluate whether early overexpression of these genes may cause a prenatal impairment of oxidative phosphorylation negatively affecting neurogenesis. Reduction in the mitochondrial energy production and a lower mitochondrial function have been reported in diverse tissues or cell types, and also at any age, including early fetuses, suggesting that a defect in oxidative phosphorylation is an early and general event in Down syndrome individuals. Moreover, many of the medical conditions associated with Down syndrome are also frequently found in patients with oxidative phosphorylation disease. Several drugs that enhance mitochondrial biogenesis are nowadays available and some of them have been already tested in mouse models of Down syndrome restoring neurogenesis and cognitive defects. Because neurogenesis relies on a correct mitochondrial function and critical periods of brain development occur mainly in the prenatal and early neonatal stages, therapeutic approaches intended to improve oxidative phosphorylation should be provided in these periods.

Abstract
BRM-associated factor (BAF) 60c promotes muscle glycolysis and improves glucose homeostasis. This study explored the mechanism of BAF60c in heart failure (HF). Fetal/adult rat models of HF were established, and the levels of cardiac contractile proteins and energy metabolism-, oxidative metabolism- and glycolysis-related factors were detected. Overexpression/siRNA BAF60c plasmids were injected into adult HF rats to estimate myocardial glucose uptake, high-energy phosphate contents, mitochondrial function, and cell proliferation and apoptosis. The overexpression/siRNA BAF60c plasmids were transfected into cardiac hypertrophic H9C2 cells to explore the in vitro effects. The interaction of BAF60c and PGC1α was detected. The results suggested that adult HF rats presented increased levels of fetal proteins (ssTnI and fTnT), BAF60c and glycolysis-related factors, and reduced levels of cardiac contractile proteins, PGC1α, PPARα, and oxidative metabolism-related factors. BAF60c knockdown improved glucose uptake, maintained the oxidative metabolism/glycolysis balance, promoted H9C2 cell proliferation, and inhibited apoptosis. PGC1α interacted with BAF60c. Knocking down BAF60c also activated the PGC1α/PPARα/mTOR pathway. Overexpression of PGC1α decreased the damage to H9C2 cells caused by BAF60c. Altogether, BAF60c downregulation activated the PGC1α/PPARα/mTOR pathway, maintained the oxidative metabolism/glycolysis balance and improved mitochondrial function in rat models of HF. This study may offer novel insights into HF treatment.

SMI could improve cell-survival rate and also reduce myocardial cell hypertrophy and apoptosis. Mitochondria are important sites of cellular energy metabolism, and SMI protects mitochondrial function which was evaluated by mitochondrial ultrastructure, mitochondrial respiratory control ratio (RCR), and mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) in this study. The expression levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), adenosine diphosphate (ADP), and phosphocreatine (PCr) increased. The expression levels of free fatty acid oxidation [carnitine palmitoyltransferase-1 (CPT-1)], glucose oxidation [glucose transporter-4 (GLUT-4)], and mitochondrial biogenesis-related genes (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α [PGC-1α]) were upregulated after SMI treatment. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is an important signaling pathway regulating energy metabolism and also can regulate the above-mentioned indicators. In the present study, SMI was found to promote phosphorylation of AMPK. However, the effects of SMI on fatty acid, glucose oxidation, mitochondrial biogenesis, as well as inhibiting apoptosis of hypertrophic cardiomyocytes were partly blocked by AMPK inhibitor–compound C. Moreover, decreased myocardial hypertrophy and apoptosis treated by SMI were inhibited by AMPK knockdown with shAMPK to a certain degree and AMPK knockdown almost abolished the SMI-induced increase in the expression of GLUT-4, CPT-1, and PGC-1α. These data suggest that SMI suppressed Ang II–induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and apoptosis via activation of the AMPK signaling pathway through energy-dependent mechanisms.

SESN2 protects against doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy via rescuing mitophagy and improving mitochondrial function. J Mol Cell Cardiol 2019; 133:125-137.

Abstract
The clinical application of doxorubicin (Dox) in cancer therapy is limited by its serious cardiotoxicity. Our previous studies and others have recognized that mitochondrial dysfunction is the common feature of Dox-induced cardiotoxicity. However, mechanisms underlying mitochondrial disorders remained largely unknown. SESN2, a highly conserved and stress-inducible protein, is involved in mitochondrial function and autophagy in cardiovascular diseases. This study aimed to investigate whether SESN2 affects Dox-induced cardiotoxicity and the underlying mechanisms. Sprague-Dawley rats and neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were treated with Dox. SESN2 expression was assessed. The effects of SESN2 on Dox-induced cardiotoxicity were assessed by functional gain and loss experiments. Echocardiographic parameters, morphological and histological analyses, transmission electron microscope and immunofluorescence assays were used to assess cardiac and mitochondrial function. The protein expression of SESN2 was significantly reduced following Dox stimulation. Both knockout of SESN2 by sgRNA and Dox treatment resulted in the inhibition of Parkin-mediated mitophagy, marked cardiomyocytes apoptosis and mitochondria dysfunction. Ectopic expression of SESN2 effectively protected against Dox-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis, mitochondrial injury and cardiac dysfunction. Mechanistically, SESN2 interacted with Parkin and p62, promoted accumulation of Parkin to mitochondria and then alleviated Dox-caused inhibition of Parkin mediated mitophagy. Ultimately, the clearance of damaged mitochondria and mitochondrial function were improved following SESN2 overexpression. SESN2 protected against Dox-induced cardiotoxicity through improving mitochondria function and mitophagy. These results established SESN2 as a key player in mitochondrial function and provided a potential therapeutic approach to Dox-induced cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
Neonatal sepsis remains a significant global problem with little progress made despite major efforts. At present, there is a lack of an accepted international consensus on the definition, diagnosis, and treatment of neonatal sepsis; the unclear understanding of the pathogenesis of neonatal sepsis leads to blindness in treatment, which will result in an unsatisfactory therapeutic outcome. In addition, some serious diseases caused by noninfectious factors, such as trauma, stress, asphyxia, and so on, have very similar pathophysiological results with neonatal sepsis. In this review we synthesize the recent advances in definition, incidence, causative agents, risk factors, pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and diagnosis and treatment of neonatal sepsis. Of course, there are still many challenges to neonatal sepsis in many ways.

Abstract
Recently, the definition of sepsis was concluded to be a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Severe patients always present with uncorrectable hypotension or hyperlactacidemia, which is defined as septic shock. The new definition emphasizes dysregulation of the host response and multiple organ dysfunction, which is partially attributed to metabolic disorders induced by energy crisis and oxidative stress. Mitochondria are a cellular organelle that are well known as the center of energy production, and mitochondrial damage or dysfunction is commonly induced in septic settings and is a predominant factor leading to a worse prognosis. In the present review, we determine the major mitochondrial disorders from morphology to functions in sepsis. In the following, several clinical or pre-clinical assays for monitoring mitochondrial function are demonstrated according to accumulated evidence, which is the first step of specific therapy targeting to modulate mitochondrial function. Accordingly, various reagents used for regulating mitochondrial enzyme activities and promoting biogenesis have been documented, among which mitochondria-targeted cation, TPP-conjugated antioxidants are the most valuable for future trials and clinical treatment to improve mitochondrial function as they may take advantage of the prognosis associated with septic complications.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle fitness and plasticity is an important determinant of human health and disease. Mitochondria are essential for maintaining skeletal muscle energy homeostasis by adaptive re-programming to meet the demands imposed by a myriad of physiologic or pathophysiological stresses. Skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including muscular dystrophy, atrophy, type 2 diabetes, and aging-related sarcopenia. Notably, exercise counteracts the effects of many chronic diseases on skeletal muscle mitochondrial function. Recent studies have revealed a finely tuned regulatory network that orchestrates skeletal muscle mitochondrial biogenesis and function in response to exercise and in disease states. In addition, increasing evidence suggests that mitochondria also serve to "communicate" with the nucleus and mediate adaptive genomic re-programming. Here we review the current state of knowledge relevant to the dynamic remodeling of skeletal muscle mitochondria in response to exercise and in disease states.

Abstract
Trisomy of chromosome 21 (TS21) is the most common autosomal aneuploidy compatible with postnatal survival with a prevalence of 1 in 700 newborns. Its phenotype is highly complex with constant features, such as mental retardation, dysmorphic traits and hypotonia, and variable features including heart defects, susceptibility to Alzheimer’s disease (AD), type 2 diabetes, obesity and immune disorders. Overexpression of genes on chromosome-21 (Hsa21) is responsible for the pathogenesis of Down syndrome (DS) phenotypic features either in a direct or in an indirect manner since many Hsa21 genes can affect the expression of other genes mapping to different chromosomes. Many of these genes are involved in mitochondrial function and energy conversion, and play a central role in the mitochondrial dysfunction and chronic oxidative stress, consistently observed in DS subjects. Recent studies highlight the deep interconnections between mitochondrial dysfunction and DS phenotype. In this short review we first provide a basic overview of mitochondrial phenotype in DS cells and tissues. We then discuss how specific Hsa21 genes may be involved in determining the disruption of mitochondrial DS phenotype and biogenesis. Finally we briefly focus on drugs that affect mitochondrial function and mitochondrial network suggesting possible therapeutic approaches to improve and/or prevent some aspects of the DS phenotype.

Abstract
Vitamin A deficiency and mitochondrial dysfunction are both associated with neural differentiation-related disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Down syndrome (DS). The mechanism of vitamin A-induced neural differentiation and the notion that vitamin A can regulate the morphology and function of mitochondria in its induction of neural differentiation through the RIP140/PGC-1α axis are unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the roles and underlying mechanisms of RIP140/PGC-1α axis in vitamin A-induced neural differentiation. Human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) were used as a model of neural stem cells, which were incubated with DMSO, 9-cis-retinoic acid (9-cis-RA), 13-cis-retinoic acid (13-cis-RA) and all-trans-retinoic acid (at-RA). Neural differentiation of SH-SY5Y was evaluated by Sandquist calculation, combined with immunofluorescence and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of neural markers. Mitochondrial function was estimated by ultrastructure assay using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) combined with the expression of PGC-1α and NEMGs using real-time PCR. The participation of the RA signaling pathway was demonstrated by adding RA receptor antagonists. Vitamin A derivatives are able to regulate mitochondrial morphology and function, and furthermore to induce neural differentiation through the RA signaling pathway. The RIP140/PGC-1α axis is involved in the regulation of mitochondrial function in vitamin A derivative-induced neural differentiation.

Abstract
Pathological molecular mechanisms involved in myocardial remodeling contribute to alter the existing structure of the heart, leading to cardiac dysfunction. Among the complex signaling network that characterizes myocardial remodeling, the distinct processes are myocyte loss, cardiac hypertrophy, alteration of extracellular matrix homeostasis, fibrosis, defective autophagy, metabolic abnormalities, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Several pathophysiological stimuli, such as pressure and volume overload, trigger the remodeling cascade, a process that initially confers protection to the heart as a compensatory mechanism. Yet chronic inflammation after myocardial infarction also leads to cardiac remodeling that, when prolonged, leads to heart failure progression. Here, we review the molecular pathways involved in cardiac remodeling, with particular emphasis on those associated with myocardial infarction. A better understanding of cell signaling involved in cardiac remodeling may support the development of new therapeutic strategies towards the treatment of heart failure and reduction of cardiac complications. We will also discuss data derived from gene therapy approaches for modulating key mediators of cardiac remodeling.

Abstract
Receptor-interacting protein 140 (RIP140) in macrophages stimulates the nuclear factor-κB subunit RelA to activate tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-6 transcription. However, under lipotoxic conditions, the involvement of RIP140 in the infiltration of beta cells by macrophages remains unknown. In the present study, murine RAW264.7 macrophages were transfected with a RIP140 overexpression plasmid or siRNA prior to macrophage activation with 500 µM palmitate. Palmitate-free conditioned media was then collected and added to murine insulinoma MIN6 cells. Significant decreases were observed in cell viability (P<0.01), glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (P<0.01) and levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (P<0.05), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase and proliferating cell nuclear antigen mRNA (P<0.01) in MIN6 cells. In addition, conditioned media from palmitate-treated and RIP140-upregulated macrophages significantly increased the levels of uncoupling protein-2 (P<0.01), inducible nitric oxide synthase 1 (P<0.01) and pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (P<0.05) mRNA and levels of activated Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) (P<0.01) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 (P<0.01). In turn, the conditioned media was found to be significantly enriched in TNF-α and IL-6 (both P<0.05). These results were the opposite of those obtained from MIN6 cells treated with conditioned media from palmitate-treated and RIP140-knockdown macrophages. MIN6 cells were transfected with RIP140 overexpression plasmid or siRNA prior to treatment with 500 µM palmitate and supernatant was collected for use in macrophage chemotaxis assays. In the palmitate-activated and RIP140-overexpressing MIN6 cells, TNF-α and IL-6 secretion increased significantly (both P<0.05) and macrophage chemotaxis towards MIN6 cells was enhanced. By contrast, downregulating RIP140 in MIN6 cells had the opposite effect. These data suggest that RIP140 in macrophages mediates the transcription of inflammatory cytokines when concentration of palmitate is high. Macrophage RIP140 may also impair beta cell function by activating the JNK and ERK1/2 signaling pathways and promoting specific gene transcription. Furthermore, expression of RIP140 in pancreatic beta cells may stimulate macrophage chemotaxis, thus triggering local low-grade inflammation.

Receptor-interacting Protein 140 represses Sirtuin 3 to facilitate hypertrophy, mitochondrial dysfunction and energy metabolic dysfunction in cardiomyocytes. Acta Physiol (Oxf) 2017; 220:58-71.

Abstract
AIM The transcriptional cofactor receptor-interacting protein 140 (RIP140) is known as a deleterious regulator of cardiac mitochondrial function and energy metabolic homeostasis. This study revealed that RIP140 repressed Sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), a mitochondrial deacetylase that plays an important role in regulating cardiac function. METHODS RIP140 was overexpressed by adenovirus infection or was knocked down by RNA interference in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. RESULTS RIP140 overexpression repressed, while RIP140 silencing elevated the expression and activity of SIRT3. Ad-RIP140 enhanced the expressions of the cardiac hypertrophic markers and increased cardiomyocyte surface area, whereas SIRT3 overexpression prevented the effect of Ad-RIP140. Additionally, SIRT3 overexpression reversed Ad-RIP140-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and energy metabolic dysfunction, such as increase in oxidative stress, decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP production, as well as downregulation of mitochondrial DNA-encoded genes and genes related to mitochondrial genome replication and transcription, mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid oxidation. In contrast, SIRT3 silencing exacerbated RIP140-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, the repression of SIRT3 by RIP140 was dependent on estrogen-related receptor-α (ERRα). The involvement of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) was ruled out of SIRT3 suppression by RIP140. RIP140 and PGC-1α might act as functional antagonists on the regulation of SIRT3. CONCLUSION This study indicates that suppression of SIRT3 by RIP140 facilitates the development of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, mitochondrial dysfunction and energy metabolic dysfunction. Strategies targeting inhibition of RIP140 and upregulation of SIRT3 might improve cardiac energy metabolism and suggest therapeutic potential for heart diseases.

Abstract
Transcriptional coregulators drive gene regulatory decisions in the transcriptional space. Although transcription factors including all nuclear receptors provide a docking platform for coregulators to bind, these proteins bring enzymatic capabilities to the gene regulatory sites. RIP140 is a transcriptional coregulator essential for several physiological processes, and aberrations in its function may lead to diseased states. Unlike several other coregulators that are known either for their coactivating or corepressing roles, in gene regulation, RIP140 is capable of acting both as a coactivator and a corepressor. The role of RIP140 in female reproductive axis and recent findings of its role in carcinogenesis and adipose biology have been summarised.

Abstract
The adult heart is uniquely designed and equipped to provide a continuous supply of energy in the form of ATP to support persistent contractile function. This high-capacity energy transduction system is the result of a remarkable surge in mitochondrial biogenesis and maturation during the fetal-to-adult transition in cardiac development. Substantial evidence indicates that nuclear receptor signaling is integral to dynamic changes in the cardiac mitochondrial phenotype in response to developmental cues, in response to diverse postnatal physiologic conditions, and in disease states such as heart failure. A subset of cardiac-enriched nuclear receptors serve to match mitochondrial fuel preferences and capacity for ATP production with changing energy demands of the heart. In this Review, we describe the role of specific nuclear receptors and their coregulators in the dynamic control of mitochondrial biogenesis and energy metabolism in the normal and diseased heart.

Receptor-interacting protein 140 overexpression impairs cardiac mitochondrial function and accelerates the transition to heart failure in chronically infarcted rats. Transl Res 2017; 180:91-102.e1.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is associated with myocardial energy metabolic abnormality. Receptor-interacting protein 140 (RIP140) is an important transcriptional cofactor for maintaining energy balance in high-oxygen consumption tissues. However, the role of RIP140 in the pathologic processes of HF remains to be elucidated. In this study, we investigated the role of RIP140 in mitochondrial and cardiac functions in rodent hearts under myocardial infarction (MI) stress. MI was created by a permanent ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery and exogenous expression of RIP140 by adenovirus (Ad) vector delivery. Four weeks after MI or Ad-RIP140 treatment, cardiac function was assessed by echocardiographic and hemodynamics analyses, and the mitochondrial function was determined by mitochondrial genes expression, biogenesis, and respiration rates. In Ad-RIP140 or MI group, a subset of metabolic genes changed, accompanied with slight reductions in mitochondrial biogenesis and respiration rates but no change in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) content. Cardiac malfunction was compensated. However, under MI stress, rats overexpressing RIP140 exhibited greater repressions in mitochondrial genes, state 3 respiration rates, respiration control ratio, and ATP content and had further deteriorated cardiac malfunction. In conclusion, RIP140 overexpression leads to comparable cardiac function as resulted from MI, but RIP140 aggravates metabolic repression, mitochondrial malfunction, and further accelerates the transition to HF in response to MI stress.

Abstract
Sepsis is a life threatening condition mediated by systemic infection, but also triggered by hemorrhage and trauma. These are significant causes of organ injury implicated in morbidity and mortality, as well as post-sepsis complications associated with dysfunction of innate and adaptive immunity. The role of cellular bioenergetics and loss of metabolic plasticity of immune cells is increasingly emerging in the pathogenesis of sepsis. This review describes mitochondrial biology and metabolic alterations of immune cells due to sepsis, as well as indicates plausible therapeutic opportunities.

Abstract
Seriously inflammatory response of the lungs can induce acute lung injury (ALI) or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) which are serious public health threats due to their high patient morbidity and mortality. While RIP140 is known to modulate proinflammatory cytokine production during an inflammatory response, its role in ALI/ARDS is unclear. In this study, we examined RIP140 and PPARγ protein expression in RAW 264.7 cells and lung tissue following LPS-induced ALI. RIP140 shRNA adenoviral knockdown significantly elevated PPARγ expression, inhibited TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 production in vivo and in vitro. Conversely, treatment with a PPARγ antagonist (GW9662) reversed these outcomes. Furthermore, co-IP showed that endogenous and exogenous RIP140 interacted with DNMT3b in RAW 264.7 cells. Bisulfite conversion, pyrosequencing and activity assays demonstrated that PPARγ promoter methylation levels were increased and that PPARγ transcriptional activity was inhibited following LPS treatment in macrophages. Nevertheless, RIP140 knockdown reduced PPARγ promoter methylation levels and restored its transcriptional activity. These results indicate that RIP140 knockdown can inhibit the production of inflammation mediators and remit ALI via the repression of DNMT3b mediated PPARγ promoter methylation.

Abstract
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha (PGC-1α) is a crucial coregulator interacting with multiple transcriptional factors in the regulation of cardiac hypertrophy. The present study revealed that PGC-1α protected cardiomyocytes from hypertrophy by suppressing calcineurin-nuclear factor of activated T cells c4 (NFATc4) signaling pathway. Overexpression of PGC-1α by adenovirus infection prevented the increased protein and messenger RNA expression of NFATc4 in phenylephrine (PE)-treated hypertrophic cardiomyocytes, whereas knockdown of PGC-1α by RNA silencing augmented the expression of NFATc4. An interaction between PGC-1α and NFATc4 was observed in both the cytoplasm and nucleus of neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Adenovirus PGC-1α prevented the nuclear import of NFATc4 and increased its phosphorylation level of NFATc4, probably through repressing the expression and activity of calcineurin and interfering with the interaction between calcineurin and NFATc4. On the contrary, PGC-1α silencing aggravated PE-induced calcineurin activation, NFATc4 dephosphorylation, and nuclear translocation. Moreover, the binding activity and transcription activity of NFATc4 to DNA promoter of brain natriuretic peptide were abrogated by PGC-1α overexpression but were enhanced by PGC-1α knockdown. The effect of PGC-1α on suppressing the calcinuerin-NFATc4 signaling pathway might at least partially contribute to the protective effect of PGC-1α on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. These findings provide novel insights into the role of PGC-1α in regulation of cardiac hypertrophy.

Abstract
Neuropeptide Y (NPY) plays an important role in cardiovascular diseases including stress cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, heart failure, diabetic cardiomyopathy, hypertension, and so on. However, inconsistent results related to the role of NPY in the different types of cardiomyopathies make the exact involvement of the peptide elusive. Considering these effects are known to be involved in energy balance, as the hearts energy producer, the mitochondria, should be investigated, and not only mitochondrial structure but also its potential. Up to now, the impact of NPY on energy metabolism and mitochondria in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes has not been reported. The main objective of our study was to test the role of NPY in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. After 24-h stimulation of NPY, the ATP content and activity of the cardiomyocytes were determined by Cell Counting Kit-8 and ATP-dependent bioluminescence assay kit, respectively. To further measure these effects, mitochondrial membrane potential was measured by JC-1 staining, the change of mitochondrial structure was detected by transmission electron microscopy, and the levels of PGC-1α (a marker of mitochondrial energy metabolism) mRNA and protein expression were determined by real-time PCR and Western blotting, respectively. The results showed that after 24-h stimulation of NPY, ATP content and activity in the cardiomyocytes were decreased. Moreover, cardiomyocyte mitochondria were changed in morphology. Further, a decline of mitochondrial membrane potential was induced in a dose-dependent manner and the levels of PGC-1α mRNA and protein expression were up-regulated after being treated by different dose of NPY. The results indicate that energy metabolism is suppressed, mitochondrial structure and membrane potential damaged, and PGC-α is changed in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes after being treated by NPY.

Abstract
The estrogen-related receptors (ERRs) comprise a small group of orphan nuclear receptor transcription factors. The ERRα and ERRγ isoforms play a central role in the regulation of metabolic genes and cellular energy metabolism. Although less is known about ERRβ, recent studies have revealed the importance of this isoform in the maintenance of embryonic stem cell pluripotency. Thus, ERRs are essential to many biological processes. The development of several ERR knockout and overexpression models and the application of advanced functional genomics have allowed rapid advancement of our understanding of the physiology regulated by ERR pathways. Moreover, it has enabled us to begin to delineate the distinct programs regulated by ERRα and ERRγ that have overlapping effects on metabolism and growth. The current review primarily focuses on the physiologic roles of ERR isoforms related to their metabolic regulation; therefore, the ERRα and ERRγ are discussed in the greatest detail. We emphasize findings from gain- and loss-of-function models developed to characterize ERR control of skeletal muscle, heart and musculoskeletal physiology. These models have revealed that coordinating metabolic capacity with energy demand is essential for seemingly disparate processes such as muscle differentiation and hypertrophy, innate immune function, thermogenesis, and bone remodeling. Furthermore, the models have revealed that ERRα- and ERRγ-deficiency in mice accelerates progression of pathologic processes and implicates ERRs as etiologic factors in disease. We highlight the human diseases in which ERRs and their downstream metabolic pathways are perturbed, including heart failure and diabetes. While no natural ligand has been identified for any of the ERR isoforms, the potential for using synthetic small molecules to modulate their activity has been demonstrated. Based on our current understanding of their transcriptional mechanisms and physiologic relevance, the ERRs have emerged as potential therapeutic targets for treatment of osteoporosis, muscle atrophy, insulin resistance and heart failure in humans.

Abstract
Receptor-interacting protein 140 (RIP140) is a multifunctional coregulator of lipid metabolism and inflammation. However, the potential role of RIP140 in atherosclerosis remains unknown. The present study investigated the impact of RIP140 on foam cell formation, a critical step in pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The expression of RIP140 was increased in foam cells. RIP140 overexpression resulted in decreased cholesterol efflux in macrophages and their concomitant differentiation into foam cells. Moreover, RIP140 negatively regulated the macrophage expression of ATP-binding cassette transporters A1 and G1 (ABCA1/G1), by suppressing the expression and activity of liver X receptor (LXR). These findings shed light onto the contribution of RIP140 to the development and progression of atherosclerosis, and suggest a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of atherosclerosis.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction, which is consistently observed in Down syndrome (DS) cells and tissues, might contribute to the severity of the DS phenotype. Our recent studies on DS fetal hearts and fibroblasts have suggested that one of the possible causes of mitochondrial dysfunction is the downregulation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, coactivator 1 alpha (PGC-1α or PPARGC1A)--a key modulator of mitochondrial function--and of several nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes (NEMGs). Re-analysis of publicly available expression data related to manipulation of chromosome 21 (Hsa21) genes suggested the nuclear receptor interacting protein 1 (NRIP1 or RIP140) as a good candidate Hsa21 gene for NEMG downregulation. Indeed, NRIP1 is known to affect oxidative metabolism and mitochondrial biogenesis by negatively controlling mitochondrial pathways regulated by PGC-1α. To establish whether NRIP1 overexpression in DS downregulates both PGC-1α and NEMGs, thereby causing mitochondrial dysfunction, we used siRNAs to decrease NRIP1 expression in trisomic human fetal fibroblasts. Levels of PGC-1α and NEMGs were increased and mitochondrial function was restored, as shown by reactive oxygen species decrease, adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) production and mitochondrial activity increase. These findings indicate that the Hsa21 gene NRIP1 contributes to the mitochondrial dysfunction observed in DS. Furthermore, they suggest that the NRIP1-PGC-1α axe might represent a potential therapeutic target for restoring altered mitochondrial function in DS.

Abstract
A constant provision of ATP is of necessity for cardiac contraction. As the heart progresses toward failure following a myocardial infarction (MI), it undergoes metabolic alterations that have the potential to compromise the ability to meet energetic demands. This study evaluated the efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation into the infarcted heart to minimize impairments in the metabolic processes that contribute to energy provision. Seven and twenty-eight days following the MI and MSC transplantation, MSC administration minimized cardiac systolic dysfunction. Hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps, coupled with 2-[(14)C]deoxyglucose administration, were employed to assess systemic insulin sensitivity and tissue-specific, insulin-mediated glucose uptake 36 days following the MI in the conscious, unrestrained, C57BL/6 mouse. The improved systolic performance in MSC-treated mice was associated with a preservation of in vivo insulin-stimulated cardiac glucose uptake. Conserved glucose uptake in the heart was linked to the ability of the MSC treatment to diminish the decline in insulin signaling as assessed by Akt phosphorylation. The MSC treatment also sustained mitochondrial content, ADP-stimulated oxygen flux, and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation efficiency in the heart. Maintenance of mitochondrial function and density was accompanied by preserved peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α, a master regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis. These studies provide insight into mechanisms of action that lead to an enhanced energetic state in the infarcted heart following MSC transplantation that may assist in energy provision and dampen cardiac dysfunction.

Abstract
Nuclear receptors (NRs) regulate tissue development and function by controlling transcription from distinct sets of genes in response to fluctuating levels of hormones or cues that modulate receptor activity. Such target gene activation or repression depends on the recruitment of coactivators or corepressors that lead to chromatin remodelling in the vicinity of target genes. Similarly to receptors, coactivators and corepressors often serve pleiotropic functions, and Nrip1 (RIP140) is no exception, playing roles in animal development and physiology. At first sight, however, RIP140 is unusual in its ability to function either as a coactivator or as a corepressor, and also serve a cytoplasmic role. The functions of RIP140 in different tissues will be summarised together with its potential contribution to disease.

Abstract
Trisomy of chromosome 21 is associated to congenital heart defects in ∼50% of affected newborns. Transcriptome analysis of hearts from trisomic human foeti demonstrated that genes involved in mitochondrial function are globally downregulated with respect to controls, suggesting an impairment of mitochondrial function. We investigated here the properties of mitochondria in fibroblasts from trisomic foeti with and without cardiac defects. Together with the upregulation of Hsa21 genes and the downregulation of nuclear encoded mitochondrial genes, an abnormal mitochondrial cristae morphology was observed in trisomic samples. Furthermore, impairment of mitochondrial respiratory activity, specific inhibition of complex I, enhanced reactive oxygen species production and increased levels of intra-mitochondrial calcium were demonstrated. Seemingly, mitochondrial dysfunction was more severe in fibroblasts from cardiopathic trisomic foeti that presented a more pronounced pro-oxidative state. The data suggest that an altered bioenergetic background in trisomy 21 foeti might be among the factors responsible for a more severe phenotype. Since the mitochondrial functional alterations might be rescued following pharmacological treatments, these results are of interest in the light of potential therapeutic interventions.

Transcriptional Regulation by Nuclear Corepressors and PGC-1α: Implications for Mitochondrial Quality Control and Insulin Sensitivity. PPAR Res 2012; 2012:348245.

Abstract
The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) and estrogen-related receptor (ERRα) are ligand-activated nuclear receptors that coordinately regulate gene expression. Recent evidence suggests that nuclear corepressors, NCoR, RIP140, and SMRT, repress nuclear receptors-mediated transcriptional activity on specific promoters, and thus regulate insulin sensitivity, adipogenesis, mitochondrial number, and activity in vivo. Moreover, the coactivator PGC-1α that increases mitochondrial biogenesis during exercise and calorie restriction directly regulates autophagy in skeletal muscle and mitophagy in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease. In this paper, we discuss the PGC-1α's novel role in mitochondrial quality control and the role of nuclear corepressors in regulating insulin sensitivity and interacting with PGC-1α.
