Abstract
Aims Volume overload (VO) induced hypertrophy is one of the hallmarks to the development of heart diseases. Understanding the compensatory mechanisms involved in this process might help preventing the disease progression. Methods and results Therefore, the present study used 2 months old Wistar rats, which underwent an aortocaval fistula to develop VO‐induced hypertrophy. The animals were subdivided into four different groups, two sham operated animals served as age‐matched controls and two groups with aortocaval fistula. Echocardiography was performed prior termination after 4‐ and 8‐month. Functional and molecular changes of several sarcomeric proteins and their signalling pathways involved in the regulation and modulation of cardiomyocyte function were investigated. Results The model was characterized with preserved ejection fraction in all groups and with elevated heart/body weight ratio, left/right ventricular and atrial weight at 4‐ and 8‐month, which indicates VO‐induced hypertrophy. In addition, 8‐months groups showed increased left ventricular internal diameter during diastole, RV internal diameter, stroke volume and velocity‐time index compared with their age‐matched controls. These changes were accompanied by increased Ca2+ sensitivity and titin‐based cardiomyocyte stiffness in 8‐month VO rats compared with other groups. The altered cardiomyocyte mechanics was associated with phosphorylation deficit of sarcomeric proteins cardiac troponin I, myosin binding protein C and titin, also accompanied with impaired signalling pathways involved in phosphorylation of these sarcomeric proteins in 8‐month VO rats compared with age‐matched control group. Impaired protein phosphorylation status and dysregulated signalling pathways were associated with significant alterations in the oxidative status of both kinases CaMKII and PKG explaining by this the elevated Ca2+ sensitivity and titin‐based cardiomyocyte stiffness and perhaps the development of hypertrophy. Conclusions Our findings showed VO‐induced cardiomyocyte dysfunction via deranged phosphorylation of myofilament proteins and signalling pathways due to increased oxidative state of CaMKII and PKG and this might contribute to the development of hypertrophy.

Abstract
Long-chain saturated fatty acids, especially palmitic acid (PA), contribute to cardiomyocyte lipotoxicity. This study tests the effects of PA on adult rat cardiomyocyte contractile function and proteins associated with calcium regulating cardiomyocyte contraction and relaxation. Adult rat cardiomyocytes were pretreated with resveratrol (Resv) and then treated with PA. For the reversal study, cardiomyocytes were incubated with PA prior to treatment with Resv. Cardiomyocyte contractility, ratio of rod- to round-shaped cardiomyocytes, and Hoechst staining were used to measure functional and morphological changes in cardiomyocytes. Protein expression of sarco-endoplasmic reticulum ATPase 2a (SERCA2a), native phospholamban (PLB) and phosphorylated PLB (pPLB ser16 and pPLB thr17), and troponin I (TnI) and phosphorylated TnI (pTnI) were measured. SERCA2a activity was also measured. Our results show that PA (200 μM) decreased the rate of cardiomyocyte relaxation, reduced the number of rod-shaped cardiomyocytes, and increased the number of cells with condensed nuclei; pre-treating cardiomyocytes with Resv significantly prevented these changes. Post-treatment with Resv did not reverse morphological changes induced by PA. Protein expression levels of SERCA2a, PLB, pPLBs, TnI, and pTnI were unchanged by PA or Resv. SERCA2a activity assay showed that Vmax and Iono ratio were increased with PA and pre-treatment with Resv prevented this increase. In conclusion, our results show that Resv protect cardiomyocytes from contractile dysfunction induced by PA.

In vivo and in vitro cardiac responses to beta-adrenergic stimulation in volume-overload heart failure. J Mol Cell Cardiol 2012; 57:47-58.

Abstract
Hearts in volume overload (VO) undergo progressive ventricular hypertrophy resulting in chronic heart failure that is unresponsive to β-adrenergic agonists. This study compared left ventricular (LV) and isolated cardiomyocyte contractility and β-adrenergic responsiveness in rats with end-stage VO heart failure (HF). Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were studied 21 weeks after aortocaval fistula (ACF) or sham surgery. Echocardiography revealed decreased fractional shortening accompanied by increased LV chamber diameter and decreased eccentric dilatation index at end-stage ACF compared to sham. Hemodynamic measurements showed a decrease in the slope of end-systolic pressure-volume relationship, indicating systolic dysfunction. Isolated LV myocytes from ACF exhibited decreased peak sarcomere shortening and kinetics. Both Ca2+ transient amplitude and kinetics were increased in ACF myocytes, with no change under the integrated Ca2+ curves relating to contraction and relaxation phases. Increases in ryanodine receptor and phospholamban phosphorylation, along with a decrease in SERCA2 levels, were observed in ACF. These changes were associated with decreased expression of β-myosin heavy chain, cardiac troponin I and cardiac myosin binding protein-C. In vivo inotropic responses to β-adrenergic stimulation were attenuated in ACF. Interestingly, ACF myocytes exhibited a similar peak shortening to those of sham in response to a β-adrenergic agonist. The protein expression of the gap junction protein connexin-43 was decreased, although its phosphorylation at Ser-368 increased. These changes were associated with alterations in Src and ZO-1. In summary, these data suggest that the disconnect in β-adrenergic responsiveness between in vivo and in vitro conditions may be associated with altered myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity and connexin-43 degradation.

Abstract
Heart failure can be caused by pro-hypertrophic humoral factors such as angiotensin II (Ang II), which regulates protein kinase activities. The intermingled responses of these kinases lead to the early compensated cardiac hypertrophy, but later to the uncompensated phase of heart failure. We have shown that although beneficial, cardiac hypertrophy is associated with modifications in ion channels that are mainly mediated through mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) activation. This study evaluates the control of L-type Ca(2+) current (I(Ca,L)) by the Ang II/PI3K pathway in hypertrophied ventricular myocytes from volume-overload rats using the perforated patch-clamp technique. To assess activation of the I(Ca,L) in cardiomyocytes, voltages of 350 ms in 10 mV increments from a holding potential of -85 mV were applied to cardiocytes, with a pre-pulse to -45 mV for 300 ms. Volume overload-induced hypertrophy reduces I(Ca,L), whereas addition of Ang II alleviates the hypertrophic-induced decrease in a PI3K-dependent manner. Acute administration of Ang II (10(-6) mol/L) to normal adult cardiomyocytes had no effect; however, captopril reduced their basal I(Ca,L). In parallel, captopril regressed the hypertrophy and inverted the Ang II effect on I(Ca,L) seemingly through a PI3K upstream effector. Thus, it seems that regression of cardiac hypertrophy by captopril improved I(Ca,L) partly through PI3K.
