Abstract
Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) treatment increases heart function and decreases heart dilation after myocardial infarction (MI). Here, we investigated whether part of the cardioprotective effect of BNP in infarcted hearts related to improved neovascularisation. Infarcted mice were treated with saline or BNP for 10 days. BNP treatment increased vascularisation and the number of endothelial cells in all areas of infarcted hearts. Endothelial cell lineage tracing showed that BNP directly stimulated the proliferation of resident endothelial cells via NPR-A binding and p38 MAP kinase activation. BNP also stimulated the proliferation of WT1+ epicardium-derived cells but only in the hypoxic area of infarcted hearts. Our results demonstrated that these immature cells have a natural capacity to differentiate into endothelial cells in infarcted hearts. BNP treatment increased their proliferation but not their differentiation capacity. We identified new roles for BNP that hold potential for new therapeutic strategies to improve recovery and clinical outcome after MI.

Fu S, Chang Z, Luo L, Deng J. Therapeutic Progress and Knowledge Basis on the Natriuretic Peptide System in Heart Failure. Curr Top Med Chem 2019; 19:1850-1866. [PMID: 31448711 DOI: 10.2174/1568026619666190826163536] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2019] [Revised: 06/25/2019] [Accepted: 07/25/2019] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
Notwithstanding substantial improvements in diagnosis and treatment, Heart Failure (HF) remains a major disease burden with high prevalence and poor outcomes worldwide. Natriuretic Peptides (NPs) modulate whole cardiovascular system and exhibit multiple cardio-protective effects, including the counteraction of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System (RAAS) and Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS), promotion of vasodilatation and natriuresis, and inhibition of hypertrophy and fibrosis. Novel pharmacological therapies based on NPs may achieve a valuable shift in managing patients with HF from inhibiting RAAS and SNS to a reversal of neurohormonal imbalance. Enhancing NP bioavailability through exogenous NP administration and inhibiting Neutral Endopeptidase (NEP) denotes valuable therapeutic strategies for HF. On the one hand, NEP-resistant NPs may be more specific as therapeutic choices in patients with HF. On the other hand, NEP Inhibitors (NEPIs) combined with RAAS inhibitors have proved to exert beneficial effects and reduce adverse events in patients with HF. Highly effective and potentially safe Angiotensin Receptor Blocker Neprilysin Inhibitors (ARNIs) have been developed after the failure of NEPIs and Vasopeptidase Inhibitors (VPIs) due to lacking efficacy and safety. Therapeutic progress and knowledge basis on the NP system in HF are summarized in the current review.

Abstract
Ischemic diseases in an aging population pose a heavy social encumbrance. Moreover, current therapeutic approaches, which aimed to prevent or minimize ischemia-induced damage, are associated with relevant costs for healthcare systems. Early reperfusion by primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) has undoubtedly improved patient's outcomes; however, the prevention of long-term complications is still an unmet need. To face these hurdles and improve patient's outcomes, novel pharmacological and interventional approaches, alone or in combination, reducing myocardium oxygen consumption or supplying blood flow via collateral vessels have been proposed. A number of clinical trials are ongoing to validate their efficacy on patient's outcomes. Alternative options, including stem cell-based therapies, have been evaluated to improve cardiac regeneration and prevent scar formation. However, due to the lack of long-term engraftment, more recently, great attention has been devoted to their paracrine mediators, including exosomes (Exo) and microvesicles (MV). Indeed, Exo and MV are both currently considered to be one of the most promising therapeutic strategies in regenerative medicine. As a matter of fact, MV and Exo that are released from stem cells of different origin have been evaluated for their healing properties in ischemia reperfusion (I/R) settings. Therefore, this review will first summarize mechanisms of cardiac damage and protection after I/R damage to track the paths through which more appropriate interventional and/or molecular-based targeted therapies should be addressed. Moreover, it will provide insights on novel non-invasive/invasive interventional strategies and on Exo-based therapies as a challenge for improving patient's long-term complications. Finally, approaches for improving Exo healing properties, and topics still unsolved to move towards Exo clinical application will be discussed.

Sacubitril/Valsartan Averts Adverse Post-Infarction Ventricular Remodeling and Preserves Systolic Function in Rabbits. J Am Coll Cardiol 2019; 72:2342-2356. [PMID: 30384891 DOI: 10.1016/j.jacc.2018.07.102] [Citation(s) in RCA: 62] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2018] [Revised: 07/23/2018] [Accepted: 07/30/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sacubitril/valsartan (SAC/VAL) is approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). OBJECTIVES This study investigated the effects of SAC/VAL on acute myocardial infarction (MI) and cardiac remodeling in a translational rabbit model of MI. METHODS New Zealand White rabbits were sedated and underwent conscious MI (45-min ischemia) by balloon inflation (previously implanted surgically) followed by 72 h (acute protocol) or 10 weeks (chronic protocols) of reperfusion. "Infarct-sparing" protocol: SAC/VAL, VAL, or placebo were randomly allocated and administered at reperfusion. "HFrEF-treatment" protocol: rabbits were randomized, and treatment commenced after echocardiography-confirmed left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤40%. "HFrEF-prevention" protocol: treatment started at reperfusion and continued daily throughout the study. RESULTS Compared with placebo, SAC/VAL and VAL significantly reduced infarct size (TTC staining) and plasma troponin levels; however, only SAC/VAL preserved LVEF at 72 h post-MI. In the HFrEF-treatment protocol, LVEF improvement was observed with SAC/VAL compared with both placebo and VAL starting 2 weeks post-treatment, a benefit that persisted throughout study duration. In the HFrEF-prevention protocol, SAC/VAL and VAL attenuated the decline in LVEF post-MI, although SAC/VAL offered better functional protection. The functional improvement observed in both treatment protocols was paralleled by significant reduction in left ventricular (LV) scar size (Picrosirius red staining) in the SAC/VAL groups. CONCLUSIONS Reperfusion therapy with SAC/VAL or VAL offers robust acute infarct-sparing benefits; however, SAC/VAL treatment offered superior short-term and long-term benefits in preventing MI-induced LV dysfunction compared with VAL. SAC/VAL also significantly attenuated LV scar size following MI compared with placebo, whereas VAL did not reach statistical significance in scar reduction.

Oxygen as a key regulator of cardiomyocyte proliferation: New results about cell culture conditions! BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2019; 1867:118460.

Abstract
The goal of the new therapeutically strategies aimed to treat cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) is to enhance the natural ability of the heart to regenerate. This represents a great challenge for the coming years as all the mechanisms underlying the replacement of dying cells by functional cells of the same type are not completely elucidated. Among these, stimulating cardiomyocyte proliferation seems to be crucial for the restoration of normal cardiac function after CVDs. In this review, we summarized the recent advances about the modulation of cardiomyocyte proliferation in physiological (during ageing) and pathological conditions. We highlighted the role of oxygen and we presented new results demonstrating that performing neonatal cardiomyocyte cell cultures in "normoxic" oxygen conditions (i.e. 3% oxygen) increases their proliferation rate, when compared to "hyperoxic" conventional conditions (i.e. 20% oxygen). Thus, oxygen concentration seems to be a key factor in the control of cardiomyocyte proliferation.

Abstract
Intercellular communications play a pivotal role in several cardiac pathophysiological processes. One subtype of extracellular vesicles, so-called exosomes, became known as important intercellular communication mediators in the heart. Exosomes are lipid bilayer biological nanovesicles loaded with diverse proteins, lipids, and mRNAs/microRNAs. All major cardiac cell types can modulate recipient cellular function via the release of exosomes. After myocardial infarction (MI), exosomes, especially those secreted by different cardiac stem cells, have been shown to confer cardioprotective effects, activate regenerative signals, and participate into cardiac repair. In this review, we rapidly recall the biology of exosomes at the beginning. Then we summarize the exosomes secreted by different myocardial cells and their function in cardiac intercellular communication. At last, we discuss the role of these vesicles in cardiac repair after MI.

Abstract
As a family of hormones with pleiotropic effects, natriuretic peptide (NP) system includes atrial NP (ANP), B-type NP (BNP), C-type NP (CNP), dendroaspis NP and urodilatin, with NP receptor-A (guanylate cyclase-A), NP receptor-B (guanylate cyclase-B) and NP receptor-C (clearance receptor). These peptides are genetically distinct, but structurally and functionally related for regulating circulatory homeostasis in vertebrates. In humans, ANP and BNP are encoded by NP precursor A (NPPA) and NPPB genes on chromosome 1, whereas CNP is encoded by NPPC on chromosome 2. NPs are synthesized and secreted through certain mechanisms by cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, endotheliocytes, immune cells (neutrophils, T-cells and macrophages) and immature cells (embryonic stem cells, muscle satellite cells and cardiac precursor cells). They are mainly produced by cardiovascular, brain and renal tissues in response to wall stretch and other causes. NPs provide natriuresis, diuresis, vasodilation, antiproliferation, antihypertrophy, antifibrosis and other cardiometabolic protection. NPs represent body's own antihypertensive system, and provide compensatory protection to counterbalance vasoconstrictor-mitogenic-sodium retaining hormones, released by renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) and sympathetic nervous system (SNS). NPs play central roles in regulation of heart failure (HF), and are inactivated through not only NP receptor-C, but also neutral endopeptidase (NEP), dipeptidyl peptidase-4 and insulin degrading enzyme. Both BNP and N-terminal proBNP are useful biomarkers to not only make the diagnosis and assess the severity of HF, but also guide the therapy and predict the prognosis in patients with HF. Current NP-augmenting strategies include the synthesis of NPs or agonists to increase NP bioactivity and inhibition of NEP to reduce NP breakdown. Nesiritide has been established as an available therapy, and angiotensin receptor blocker NEP inhibitor (ARNI, LCZ696) has obtained extremely encouraging results with decreased morbidity and mortality. Novel pharmacological approaches based on NPs may promote a therapeutic shift from suppressing the RAAS and SNS to re-balancing neuroendocrine dysregulation in patients with HF. The current review discussed the synthesis, secretion, function and metabolism of NPs, and their diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic values in HF.

Abstract
Brain Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) injections in adult “healthy” or infarcted mice led to increased number of non-myocyte cells (NMCs) expressing the nuclear transcription factor Nkx2.5. The aim of this study was to identify the nature of the cells able to respond to BNP as well as the signaling pathway involved. BNP treatment of neonatal mouse NMCs stimulated Sca-1+ cell proliferation. The Sca-1+ cells were characterized as being a mixed cell population involving fibroblasts and multipotent precursor cells. Thus, BNP treatment led also to increased number of Sca-1+ cells expressing Nkx2.5, in Sca-1+ cell cultures in vitro and in vivo, in the hearts of neonatal and adult infarcted mice. Whereas BNP induced Sca-1+ cell proliferation via NPR-B receptor and protein kinase G activation, CNP stimulated Sca-1+ cell proliferation via NPR-B and a PKG-independent mechanism. We highlighted here a new role for the natriuretic peptide receptor B which was identified as a target able to modulate the proliferation of the Sca-1+ cells. The involvement of NPR-B signaling in heart regeneration has, however, to be further investigated.

Abstract
Perioperative acute lung injury (ALI) is a syndrome characterised by hypoxia and chest radiograph changes. It is a serious post-operative complication, associated with considerable mortality and morbidity. In addition to mechanical ventilation, remote organ insult could also trigger systemic responses which induce ALI. Currently, there are limited treatment options available beyond conservative respiratory support. However, increasing understanding of the pathophysiology of ALI and the biochemical pathways involved will aid the development of novel treatments and help to improve patient outcome as well as to reduce cost to the health service. In this review we will discuss the epidemiology of peri-operative ALI; the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved on the pathological process; the clinical considerations in preventing and managing perioperative ALI and the potential future treatment options.

Abstract
Cardiac remodelling (REM) is a generally unfavourable process that leads to left ventricular dilation in response to cardiac injury, predominantly acute myocardial infarction (AMI). REM occurs in around 30 % of anterior infarcts despite timely primary coronary intervention and the use of drugs, i.e. angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) or angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), beta-blockers, aldosterone inhibitors and statins. In order to diagnose REM, many imaging modalities (echocardiography, cardiac magnetic resonance, scintigraphy) are employed together with an increasing number of serum biomarkers including microRNAs. The most widely used definition of REM is a >20 % increase in left ventricular end-diastolic volume (LVEDV). There is also evidence that regression of REM can occur, i.e. reverse REM. The latter is defined as a ≥10 % decrease in left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV) and confers a more favourable outcome. Many therapeutic agents may be used during primary intervention and over the long term; however, few have demonstrated significant benefits. Revascularisation, anti-REM surgery and, where indicated, cardiac resynchronisation therapy can be of benefit. Gene therapy by sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase 2 (SERCA-2a) transfer has been investigated but data from the Calcium upregulation by percutaneous administration of gene therapy in patients with cardiac disease (CUPID 2) trial were disappointing. Progenitor cell therapy shows promise. In conclusion, therapy for REM remains inadequate.
