Regulation of Na+-K+-ATPase leads to disturbances of isoproterenol-induced cardiac dysfunction via interference of Ca2+-dependent cardiac metabolism. Clin Sci (Lond) 2024; 138:23-42. [PMID: 38060817 DOI: 10.1042/cs20231039] [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: 09/14/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/07/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
Reductions in Na+-K+-ATPase (NKA) activity and expression are often observed in the progress of various reason-induced heart failure (HF). However, NKA α1 mutation or knockdown cannot cause spontaneous heart disease. Whether the abnormal NKA α1 directly contributes to HF pathogenesis remains unknown. Here, we challenge NKA α1+/- mice with isoproterenol to evaluate the role of NKA α1 haploinsufficiency in isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cardiac dysfunction. Genetic knockdown of NKA α1 accelerated ISO-induced cardiac cell hypertrophy, heart fibrosis, and dysfunction. Further studies revealed decreased Krebs cycle, fatty acid oxidation, and mitochondrial OXPHOS in the hearts of NKA α1+/- mice challenged with ISO. In ISO-treated conditions, inhibition of NKA elevated cytosolic Na+, further reduced mitochondrial Ca2+ via mNCE, and then finally down-regulated cardiac cell energy metabolism. In addition, a supplement of DRm217 alleviated ISO-induced heart dysfunction, mitigated cardiac remodeling, and improved cytosolic Na+ and Ca2+ elevation and mitochondrial Ca2+ depression in the NKA α1+/- mouse model. The findings suggest that targeting NKA and mitochondria Ca2+ could be a promising strategy in the treatment of heart disease.

Abstract
Mosquito coil repellents are well-known indoor air pollutant with significant health concerns. The present study investigated the toxic effects of mosquito coil smoke on the heart of young and adult male rats. The animals were subjected to the smoke for 6 h/day, 6 days/week, for 4 weeks. Within the first hour after lighting the coil, significant amounts of formaldehyde, total volatile organic compounds, and particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) were detected. Both exposed ages, particularly the young group, showed a significant increase in the activities of serum aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase-MB, and the levels of troponin I, myoglobin, Na+ levels, lipid profile, and inflammatory markers (interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein) as well as a significant decrease in K+ levels and cardiac Na-K ATPase activity, indicating development of cardiac inflammation and dysfunction. Furthermore, the toxic stress response was validated by significant downregulation at expression of the detoxifying enzyme cytochrome p450. Histopathological studies in both age groups, especially the young group, revealed cardiomyocyte degeneration and necrotic areas. Moreover, upregulation at the pro-apoptotic markers, caspase3, P53, and cytochrome C expressions, was detected by immunohistochemical approach in heart sections of the exposed groups. Finally, the myocardial dysfunctional effects of the coil active ingredient, meperfluthrin, were confirmed by the docking results which indicated a high binding affinity of meperfluthrin, with Na-K ATPase and caspase 3. In conclusion, both the young and adult exposed groups experienced significant cardiac toxicity changes evidenced by cell apoptosis and histopathological alterations as well as disruption of biochemical indicators.

Abstract
Reduced Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) activity and NKAα1 expression are engaged in the pathologies of renal diseases. NKA-mediated Src activation is not the only reason for NKA-related renal fibrosis. In this study, we found that genetic reduction of NKAα1 exhibited exacerbated tubulointerstitial lesions and fibrosis in the UUO mice model. Activation of NKAα1 with an antibody against the extracellular DR region of the NKAα1 subunit (DRm217) prevented UUO-induced tubulointerstitial lesions, preserved kidney function, and decrease renal fibrosis. Further studies revealed that NKAα1 deficiency mice exhibited high inflammation factors expression when they suffered UUO surgery, compared with NKAα1+/+ (WT) mice. DRm217 alleviated inflammatory cell infiltration, suppress NF-κB phosphorylation, and decreased inflammatory factors expression in the UUO mice model. Released HMGB1 can trigger the inflammatory response and contribute to renal fibrosis. Knockdown of NKA in renal tubular cells or in NKAα1+/- mice was associated with more susceptibility to HMGB1 release in the UUO mice model. DRm217 exerted its antifibrotic effect via inhibiting HMGB1 release. Furthermore, AMPK activation participates in the effect of DRm217 on inhibiting HMGB1 release. Our findings suggest that NKAα1 is a regulator of renal fibrosis and its DR-region is a novel target on it.

Abstract
The enzyme Na+/K+-ATPase (NKA) is important in the heart. Reductions in NKA activity and expression have often been observed in chronic kidney disease (CKD)-related heart injury. Previously, our group found that an antibody targeting the NKA1α1 subunit's DR extracellular region (897DVEDSYGQQWTYEQR911) stimulated NKA activities and produced cardioprotective effects against ischemic injury and isoproterenol-induced cardiac remodeling. In here, we assessed whether DRm217, a specific DR antibody, exhibits cardioprotective effects in chronic renal failure models. In 5/6 nephrectomy (5/6 Nx) surgery to mimic CKD in Sprague Dawley rat, we observed that NKA activity and expression were depressed in the hearts of 5/6 Nx rats. DRm217, an NKA DR region antibody, alleviated heart hypertrophy and cardiac fibrosis under 5/6 Nx conditions. Further studies revealed that DRm217 inhibited Src activation and reduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in hearts under 5/6 Nx conditions. Our findings imply that NKA could be a treatment target in CKD-related cardiac diseases. Prevention of CKD-induced myocardial injury by DRm217 provides an appealing therapeutic alternative.

Na,K-ATPase Acts as a Beta-Amyloid Receptor Triggering Src Kinase Activation. Cells 2022; 11:cells11172753.

Abstract
Beta-amyloid (Aβ) has a dual role, both as an important factor in the pathology of Alzheimer's disease and as a regulator in brain physiology. The inhibitory effect of Aβ42 oligomers on Na,K-ATPase contributes to neuronal dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease. Still, the physiological role of the monomeric form of Aβ42 interaction with Na,K-ATPase remains unclear. We report that Na,K-ATPase serves as a receptor for Aβ42 monomer, triggering Src kinase activation. The co-localization of Aβ42 with α1- and β1-subunits of Na,K-ATPase, and Na,K-ATPase with Src kinase in SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells, was observed. Treatment of cells with 100 nM Aβ42 causes Src kinase activation, but does not alter Na,K-ATPase transport activity. The interaction of Aβ42 with α1β1 Na,K-ATPase isozyme leads to activation of Src kinase associated with the enzyme. Notably, prevention of Na,K-ATPase:Src kinase interaction by a specific inhibitor pNaKtide disrupts the Aβ-induced Src kinase activation. Stimulatory effect of Aβ42 on Src kinase was lost under hypoxic conditions, which was similar to the effect of specific Na,K-ATPase ligands, the cardiotonic steroids. Our findings identify Na,K-ATPase as a Aβ42 receptor, thus opening a prospect on exploring the physiological and pathological Src kinase activation caused by Aβ42 in the nervous system.

Abstract
Mitochondria, as the main site of cellular energy metabolism and the generation of oxygen free radicals, are the key switch for mitochondria-mediated endogenous apoptosis. Ca2+ is not only an important messenger for cell proliferation, but it is also an indispensable signal for cell death. Ca2+ participates in and plays a crucial role in the energy metabolism, physiology, and pathology of mitochondria. Mitochondria control the uptake and release of Ca2+ through channels/transporters, such as the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU), and influence the concentration of Ca2+ in both mitochondria and cytoplasm, thereby regulating cellular Ca2+ homeostasis. Mitochondrial Ca2+ transport-related processes are involved in important biological processes of tumor cells including proliferation, metabolism, and apoptosis. In particular, MCU and its regulatory proteins represent a new era in the study of MCU-mediated mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis in tumors. Through an in-depth analysis of the close correlation between mitochondrial Ca2+ and energy metabolism, autophagy, and apoptosis of tumor cells, we can provide a valuable reference for further understanding of how mitochondrial Ca2+ regulation helps diagnosis and therapy.

Abstract
The precise toxico-pathogenic effects of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) on the cardiovascular system under normal and cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factor milieu are unclear. In this study, we have investigated the dose-dependent effects of ZnO-NPs on developing chicken embryo and cell culture (H9c2 cardiomyoblast, HUVEC and aortic VSMC) models. In addition, the potentiation effect of ZnO-NPs on simulated risk factor conditions was evaluated using; 1. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced cardiac remodeling, 2. Angiotensin-II induced cardiac hypertrophy, 3. TNF-α induced HUVEC cell death and 4. Inorganic phosphate (Pi) induced aortic VSMC calcification models. The observed results illustrates that ZnO-NPs exposure down regulates vascular development and elevates oxidative stress in heart tissue. At the cellular level, ZnO-NPs exposure reduced the cell viability and increased the intracellular ROS generation, lipid peroxidation and caspase-3 activity in a dose-dependent manner in all three cell types. In addition, ZnO-NPs exposure significantly suppressed the endothelial nitric oxide (NO) generation, cardiac Ca2+ - ATPase activity and enhanced the cardiac mitochondrial swelling. Moreover, inhibition of p38 MAPK and JNK signaling pathways influence the cytotoxicity. Overall, ZnO-NPs exposure affects the cardiovascular system under normal conditions and it exacerbates the cardiovascular pathogenesis under selected risk factor milieu.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder with a chronic hyperglycaemic state. Cardiovascular diseases are the primary cause of mortality in patients with diabetes. Increasing evidence supports the existence of diabetic cardiomyopathy, a cardiac dysfunction with impaired cardiac contraction and relaxation, independent of coronary and/or valvular complications. Diabetic cardiomyopathy can lead to heart failure. Several preclinical and clinical studies have aimed to decipher the underlying mechanisms of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Among all the co-factors, hyperglycaemia seems to play an important role in this pathology. Hyperglycaemia has been shown to alter cardiac metabolism and function through several deleterious mechanisms, such as oxidative stress, inflammation, accumulation of advanced glycated end-products and upregulation of the hexosamine biosynthesis pathway. These mechanisms are responsible for the activation of hypertrophic pathways, epigenetic modifications, mitochondrial dysfunction, cell apoptosis, fibrosis and calcium mishandling, leading to cardiac stiffness, as well as contractile and relaxation dysfunction. This review aims to describe the hyperglycaemic-induced alterations that participate in diabetic cardiomyopathy, and their correlation with the severity of the disease and patient mortality, and to provide an overview of cardiac outcomes of glucose-lowering therapy.

Abstract
Amyloid β-protein (Aβ) may contribute to worsening of Alzheimer's disease (AD) through vascular dysfunction, but the molecular mechanism involved is unknown. Using ex vivo blood vessels and primary endothelial cells from human brain microvessels, we show that patient-derived Aβ assemblies, termed amylospheroids (ASPD), exist on the microvascular surface in patients' brains and inhibit vasorelaxation through binding to the α3 subunit of sodium, potassium-ATPase (NAKα3) in caveolae on endothelial cells. Interestingly, NAKα3 is also the toxic target of ASPD in neurons. ASPD-NAKα3 interaction elicits neurodegeneration through calcium overload in neurons, while the same interaction suppresses vasorelaxation by increasing the inactive form of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in endothelial cells via mitochondrial ROS and protein kinase C, independently of the physiological relaxation system. Thus, ASPD may contribute to both neuronal and vascular pathologies through binding to NAKα3. Therefore, blocking the ASPD-NAKα3 interaction may be a useful target for AD therapy.

Abstract
YPK9/YOR291W of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a vacuolar membrane protein. Previous research has suggested that Ypk9p is similar to the yeast P5-type ATPase Spf1p and that it plays a role in the sequestration of heavy metals. In addition, bioinformatics analysis has suggested that Ypk9p is a homolog of human ATP13A2, which encodes a protein of the subfamily of P5 ATPases. However, no specific function of Ypk9p has been described to date. In this study, we found, for the first time, that YPK9 is involved in the oxidative stress response and modulation of the replicative lifespan (RLS). We found that YPK9 deficiency confers sensitivity to the oxidative stress inducer hydrogen peroxide accompanied by increased intracellular ROS levels, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, abnormal mitochondrial function, and increased incidence of early apoptosis in budding yeast. More importantly, YPK9 deficiency can lead to a shortened RLS. In addition, we found that overexpression of the catalase-encoding gene CTA1 can reverse the phenotypic abnormalities of the ypk9Δ yeast strain. Collectively, these findings highlight the involvement of Ypk9p in the oxidative stress response and modulation of RLS.

Heat preadaptation improved the ability of Zygosaccharomyces rouxii to salt stress: a combined physiological and transcriptomic analysis. Appl Microbiol Biotechnol 2020; 105:259-270. [PMID: 33216160 DOI: 10.1007/s00253-020-11005-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2020] [Revised: 10/16/2020] [Accepted: 11/04/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
Zygosaccharomyces rouxii plays important roles in the brewing process of fermented foods such as soy sauce, where salt stress is a frequently encountered condition. In this study, effect of heat preadaptation on salt tolerance of Z. rouxii and the protective mechanisms underlying heat preadaptation were investigated based on physiological and transcriptomic analyses. Results showed that cells subjected to heat preadaptation (37 °C, 90 min) prior to salt stress aroused many physiological responses, including maintaining cell surface smooth and intracellular pH level, increasing Na+/K+-ATPase activity. Cells subjected to heat preadaptation increased the amounts of unsaturated fatty acids (palmitoleic C16:1, oleic C18:1, linoleic C18:2) and decreased the amounts of saturated fatty acids (palmitic C16:0, stearic C18:0) which caused the unsaturation degree (unsaturated/saturated = U/S ratio) increased by 2.4 times when compared with cells without preadaptation under salt stress. Besides, salt stress led to increase in contents of 5 amino acids (valine, proline, threonine, glycine, and tyrosine) and decrease of 2 amino acids (serine and lysine). When comparing the cells pre-exposed to heat preadaptation followed by challenged with salt stress and the cells without preadaptation under salt stress, the serine, threonine, and lysine contents increased significantly. RNA sequencing revealed that the metabolic level of glycolysis by Z. rouxii was weakened, while the metabolic levels of the pentose phosphate pathway and the riboflavin were enhanced in cells during heat preadaptation. Results presented in this study may contribute to understand the bases of adaptive responses in Z. rouxii and rationalize its exploitation in industrial processes.Key points• Heat preadaptation can improve high salinity tolerance of Z. rouxii.• Combined physiological and transcriptomic analyses of heat preadaptation mechanisms.• Provide theoretical support for the application of Z. rouxii.

Abstract
Recent clinical trial results support the idea that treatment based on the so-called amyloid hypothesis is a promising approach in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but actually, developing effective treatments for AD remains highly challenging. The discovery that neuron-specific sodium pump activity is impaired in AD and other neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease has suggested a role for the sodium pump in the pathogenesis of these diseases. This opens up new possibilities for intervention, such as inhibiting the aberrant interaction of the sodium pump with the disease-specific ligand(s) or activating the sodium pump itself or its downstream signalling. In this review article, I would like to discuss possible anti-amyloid therapies, focusing especially on our own research.

Abstract
Cardiovascular complications are a major leading cause of mortality in patients suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Vascular endothelial dysfunction is a core pathophysiological event in the early stage of T2DM and eventually leads to cardiovascular disease. Vaccarin (VAC), an active flavonoid glycoside extracted from vaccariae semen, exhibits extensive biological activities including vascular endothelial cell protection effects. However, little is known about whether VAC is involved in endothelial dysfunction regulation under high glucose (HG) or hyperglycemia conditions. Here, in an in vivo study, we found that VAC attenuated increased blood glucose, increased glucose and insulin tolerance, relieved the disorder of lipid metabolism and oxidative stress, and improved endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in STZ/HFD-induced T2DM mice. Furthermore, in cultured human microvascular endothelial cell-1 (HMEC-1) cells, we showed that pretreatment with VAC dose-dependently increased nitric oxide (NO) generation and the phosphorylation of eNOS under HG conditions. Mechanistically, VAC-treated HMEC-1 cells exhibited higher AMPK phosphorylation, which was attenuated by HG stimulation. Moreover, HG-triggered miRNA-34a upregulation was inhibited by VAC pretreatment, which is in accordance with pretreatment with AMPK inhibitor compound C (CC). In addition, both reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) and VAC abolished HG-evoked dephosphorylation of AMPK and eNOS, increased miRNA-34a expression, and decreased NO production. These results suggest that VAC impedes HG-induced endothelial dysfunction via inhibition of the ROS/AMPK/miRNA-34a/eNOS signaling cascade.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a leading contributor to the increased morbidity and mortality rates associated with diabetes. Persistent inflammation has previously been reported to be involved in the pathogenesis of DCM. However, the exact underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated. In the present study, the role of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) and c‑Jun N‑terminal kinase (JNK) in NLR family pyrin domain‑containing 3 (NLRP3 inflammasome) activation in DCM were investigated in vivo and in vitro. Streptozotocin (65 mg/kg) was injected intraperitoneally into Sprague‑Dawley rats to induce a rat model of diabetes. Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes and H9c2 cells were cultured to detect the expression of JNK, NLRP3 and its associated downstream molecules, following treatment with Syk/JNK inhibitor or Syk/JNK‑small interfering (si)RNA in high glucose (HG) conditions. It was revealed that the protein and mRNA expression levels of phospho (p)‑Syk, p‑JNK, NLRP3 and its associated downstream molecules, including interleukin (IL)‑1β, were upregulated in vivo and in vitro. The JNK inhibitor significantly decreased the expression of NLRP3 and its downstream molecules in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes and H9c2 cells treated with HG. Furthermore, Syk‑siRNA and the Syk inhibitor markedly inhibited the HG‑induced activation of JNK, followed by the downregulation of NLRP3 and its downstream molecules at the mRNA and protein levels in cells. Therefore, it was demonstrated that the HG‑induced activation of NLRP3 was mediated by the activation of Syk/JNK, which subsequently increased the protein expression levels of mature IL‑1β, suggesting that the Syk/JNK/NLRP3 signaling pathway serves a critical role in the pathogenesis of DCM.

Abstract
High glucose (HG) induces vascular injury in diabetes. Hydroxysafflor yellow A (HSYA) has been used to ameliorate ischemic cardiovascular diseases in China for many years. In the present study, we assessed whether HSYA has a potential protective role in HG-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) injury. Cell viability was determined with an 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulfophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) assay. Cell apoptosis was detected by fluorescein isothiocyanate/propidium iodide staining assay. The endothelial cell permeability was measured with a permeability assay. Cell adhesion molecule (CAM) expression, vascular endothelial growth factor, and basic fibroblast growth factor levels were detected with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation was measured with a DCF-DA assay. Protein expression of NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) was measured by Western blotting. Our data indicated that HG increases HUVEC apoptosis, vascular permeability, monocyte adhesion, the level of CAMs, the formation of ROS, and NOX4 expression. Our data revealed that HG increases vascular injury, which is attenuated by HSYA. Because vascular inflammation has a key role in the development of diabetes mellitus, our results implied that HSYA is considered as a potential agent for diabetic vascular injury treatment.

Abstract
It has been demonstrated that the anti-oxidative and cardioprotective effects of melatonin are, at least in part, mediated by its membrane receptors. However, the direct downstream signaling remains unknown. We previously found that melatonin ameliorated myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury in diabetic animals, although the underlying mechanisms are also incompletely understood. This study was designed to determine the role of melatonin membrane receptors in melatonin's cardioprotective actions against diabetic MI/R injury with a focus on cGMP and its downstream effector PKG. Streptozotocin-induced diabetic Sprague-Dawley rats and high-glucose medium-incubated H9c2 cardiomyoblasts were utilized to determine the effects of melatonin against MI/R injury. Melatonin treatment preserved cardiac function and reduced oxidative damage and apoptosis. Additionally, melatonin increased intracellular cGMP level, PKGIα expression, p-VASP/VASP ratio and further modulated myocardial Nrf-2-HO-1 and MAPK signaling. However, these effects were blunted by KT5823 (a selective inhibitor of PKG) or PKGIα siRNA except that intracellular cGMP level did not changed significantly. Additionally, our in vitro study showed that luzindole (a nonselective melatonin membrane receptor antagonist) or 4P-PDOT (a selective MT2 receptor antagonist) not only blocked the cytoprotective effect of melatonin, but also attenuated the stimulatory effect of melatonin on cGMP-PKGIα signaling and its modulatory effect on Nrf-2-HO-1 and MAPK signaling. This study showed that melatonin ameliorated diabetic MI/R injury by modulating Nrf-2-HO-1 and MAPK signaling, thus reducing myocardial apoptosis and oxidative stress and preserving cardiac function. Importantly, melatonin membrane receptors (especially MT2 receptor)-dependent cGMP-PKGIα signaling played a critical role in this process.

Abstract
Depressed Na+/K+-ATPase activity has long been reported to be involved in diabetic-related cardiomyocyte death and cardiac dysfunction. However, the nature of directly regulating Na+-K+-ATPase in diabetic-related myocardial diseases remains unknown. Hyperglycemia is believed as one of major factors responsible for diabetic-related myocardial apoptosis and dysfunction. In this study, whether inhibiting Na+-K+-ATPase by ouabain or activating Na+-K+-ATPase by DRm217 has functions on high glucose (HG) -induced myocardial injury was investigated. Here we found that addition of DRm217 or ouabain to HG-treated cells had opposite effects. DRm217 decreased but ouabain increased HG-induced cell injury and apoptosis. This was mediated by changing Na+-K+-ATPase activity and Na+-K+-ATPase cell surface expression. The inhibition of Na+-K+-ATPase endocytosis alleviated HG-induced ROS accumulation. Na+-K+-ATPase·c-Src dependent NADPH oxidase/ROS pathway was also involved in the effects of ouabain and DRm217 on HG-induced cell injury. These novel results may help us to understand the important role of the Na+-K+-ATPase in diabetic cardiovascular diseases.
