Abstract
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a type of major defect that occurs during embryonic development. Although significant advances have been made in the treatment of CHD, its etiology and molecular mechanism remain unclear. To identify the critical role of SUMOylation in cardiac development, we generated SENP3 knockout mice and showed that SENP3 knockout mice die on embryonic day 8.5 with an open neural tube and reversed left-right cardiac asymmetry. Moreover, SENP3 knockout promoted apoptosis and senescence of H9C2 cells. Further studies showed that Nodal, a critical gene that forms left-right asymmetry, is regulated by SENP3 and that SENP3 regulates cell apoptosis and senescence in a Nodal-dependent manner. Furthermore, Nodal was hyper-SUMOylated after SENP3 knockout, and SUMOylation of Nodal inhibited its ubiquitination and ubiquitin-proteasome degradation pathway. Nodal overexpression enhanced cell apoptosis and senescence; however, the mutation at the SUMOylation site of Nodal reversed its effect on the apoptosis and senescence of H9C2 cells. More importantly, the SENP3-Nodal axis regulates cell senescence by inducing cell autophagy. These results suggest that the SENP3-Nodal signaling axis regulates cardiac senescence-autophagy homeostasis, which in turn affects cardiac development and results in the occurrence of CHD.

Pediatr Cardiol 2023:10.1007/s00246-023-03237-3. [PMID: 37515600 DOI: 10.1007/s00246-023-03237-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2023] [Accepted: 07/09/2023] [Indexed: 07/31/2023]
Abstract
Individuals with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) have historically been advised to avoid contact sports and isometric exercise for risk of increasing aortic dilation and valve disease. There is mounting evidence that current sports participation guidelines qualify children for a high rate of sports exclusion, and that this population is at increased risk of obesity. The primary aim of this study was to evaluate relationship between sports participation and aortic dilation in children with bicuspid aortic valve and secondarily the relationship between competitive sports participation and obesity. We performed a review of children between the ages of 8 and 17 years with isolated BAV followed at Oregon Health & Science University. We excluded those with other congenital heart diseases, genetic conditions, prior cardiac intervention, and inability to ambulate independently. Parents completed a phone survey detailing their child's level of daily activity and participation in competitive sports. Demographic information and most recent echo findings were collected from the electronic medical record. We found no difference between the aortic diameters of athletes vs non-athletes. We also found that sports participation and daily activity were both associated with a decreased likelihood of obesity (OR 0.24, 95% CI 0.078-0.73 and OR 0.24, 95% CI 0.081-0.71 respectively). In summary, in our sample population, competitive sports participation was associated with a decreased risk of obesity. Competitive sports participation does not appear to be associated with an increased risk of aortic dilation in our population.

Abstract
The prevalence of obesity in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) is greater than 25%, putting these patients at-risk for increased surgical morbidity and mortality. Our goal was to determine the association between CHD complexity, sociodemographic factors, and obesity. Our hypothesis was that among CHD patients, the odds of obesity would be highest in older children with simple CHD, and in all children with a lower socioeconomic status. We conducted a retrospective cohort study, reviewing electronic medical records of children aged 2-17 years from over 50 outpatient pediatric clinics in Houston, TX. Children were classified as simple or moderate/complex CHD, and obesity was defined by BMI ≥ 95th percentile for age and sex. Logistic regression was used to determine the association between sociodemographic factors and CHD complexity with obesity. We identified 648 CHD and 369,776 non-CHD patients. Children with simple CHD had a similar odds of obesity as non-CHD children. Children with CHD had a higher prevalence of obesity if they were older, male, Black, Hispanic, and publicly insured. Children with moderate/complex CHD had lower odds of obesity [OR 0.24 (95% CI 0.07-0.73)], however their predicted probability of obesity approached that of the general population as they aged. Additionally, there was an incremental relationship with poverty and obesity [1.01 (1.01-1.01)]. Awareness of which patients with CHD are at highest risk of obesity may help in targeting interventions to assist at-risk patients maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Wang Z, Zhao H, Zhou Q. Analysis of Risk Factors of Coronary Heart Disease and Its Correlation with Inflammatory Factors in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2022; 2022:6818888. [PMID: 35782064 PMCID: PMC9249516 DOI: 10.1155/2022/6818888] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2022] [Revised: 04/16/2022] [Accepted: 05/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new method to analyze the risk factors of coronary heart disease (CHD) and their correlation with inflammatory factors in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). To verify and implement this idea, we have selected a total of 165 patients with T2DM treated in our hospital from March 2019 to October 2021 that were divided into CHD group (n = 72) and non-CHD group (n = 93) according to the results of coronary angiography. Patients with CHD were divided into three groups according to SYNTAX score: low-risk group, medium-risk group, and high-risk group. The clinical data of all patients were collected. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to screen the risk factors of CHD in patients with T2DM. The related inflammatory factors such as C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and water-soluble CD40 ligand (sCD40L) were detected in all patients. Pearson's linear correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the expression levels of CRP, IL-6, and sCD40L and CHD in patients with T2DM. The receiver working curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the efficacy of IL-6, CRP, and sCD40L in predicting high risk of CHD in patients with T2DM. Multivariate analysis showed that age and course of T2DM, FFA, UA, and Hcy were risk factors for CHD in patients with T2DM. The serum levels of IL-6, CRP, and sCD40L in patients with CHD were significantly higher than those in patients without CHD. According to SYNTAX score, 72 patients with CHD were divided into low-risk group (n = 36), medium-risk group (n = 26), and high-risk group (n = 10). Compared with the low-risk group, the expression levels of serum IL-6 CRP and sCD40L in the middle-risk group and high-risk group were significantly higher than those in the low-risk group. The expression levels of IL-6 CRP and sCD40L in the high-risk group were also significantly higher than those in the medium-risk group. There is a positive correlation between syntactic score and IL-6 expression in patients with T2DM complicated with coronary heart disease (r = 0.778, P < 0.001), with the expression of CRP (r = 0.756, P < 0.001) and with the expression of sCD40L (r = 0.748, P < 0.001). Advanced age, long course of T2DM, elevated levels of FFA, UA, and Hcy are all risk factors of CHD in patients with type 2 diabetes. T2DM patients with the above risk factors should be vigilant and pay attention to monitoring the related indexes of coronary heart disease to avoid the occurrence of serious cardiovascular disease. CRP, IL-6, and sCD40L are involved in the progression of CHD in patients with T2DM. The more severe CHD is, the higher the expression of IL-6, CRP, and sCD40L in serum.

Overweight and Obesity in Patients with Congenital Heart Disease: A Systematic Review. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:ijerph18189931. [PMID: 34574853 PMCID: PMC8466650 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph18189931] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2021] [Revised: 09/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Background: Overweight and obesity have become a major public health concern in recent decades, particularly in patients with chronic health conditions like congenital heart disease (CHD). This systematic review elaborates on the prevalence and the longitudinal development of overweight and obesity in children and adults with CHD. Methods: A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Cochrane, and Scopus from January 2010 to December 2020 on overweight and obesity prevalence in children and adults with CHD. Results: Of 30 included studies, 15 studies evaluated 5680 pediatric patients with CHD, 9 studies evaluated 6657 adults with CHD (ACHD) and 6 studies examined 9273 both pediatric patients and ACHD. Fifteen studies received the quality rating “good”, nine studies “fair”, and six studies “poor”. In children with CHD, overweight prevalence was between 9.5–31.5%, and obesity prevalence was between 9.5–26%; in ACHD, overweight prevalence was between 22–53%, and obesity was between 7–26%. The prevalence of overweight and obesity was thereby similar to the general population. Overweight and obesity have been shown to increase with age. Conclusion: The prevalence of overweight and obesity in children and adults with CHD is similar to the general population, demonstrating that the growing obesity pandemic is also affecting the CHD population.
