[PMID: 38904226 DOI: 10.1161/jaha.123.033558] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/22/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidental use of statins during radiation therapy has been associated with a reduced long-term risk of developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. We examined whether irradiation causes chronic vascular injury and whether short-term administration of statins during and after irradiation is sufficient to prevent chronic injury compared with long-term administration. METHODS AND RESULTS C57Bl/6 mice were pretreated with pravastatin for 72 hours and then exposed to 12 Gy X-ray head-and-neck irradiation. Pravastatin was then administered either for an additional 24 hours or for 1 year. Carotid arteries were tested for vascular reactivity, altered gene expression, and collagen deposition 1 year after irradiation. Treatment with pravastatin for 24 hours after irradiation reduced the loss of endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation and protected against enhanced vasoconstriction. Expression of markers associated with inflammation (NFκB p65 [phospho-nuclear factor kappa B p65] and TNF-α [tumor necrosis factor alpha]) and with oxidative stress (NADPH oxidases 2 and 4) were lowered and subunits of the voltage and Ca2+ activated K+ BK channel (potassium calcium-activated channel subfamily M alpha 1 and potassium calcium-activated channel subfamily M regulatory beta subunit 1) in the carotid artery were modulated. Treatment with pravastatin for 1 year after irradiation completely reversed irradiation-induced changes. CONCLUSIONS Short-term administration of pravastatin is sufficient to reduce chronic vascular injury at 1 year after irradiation. Long-term administration eliminates the effects of irradiation. These findings suggest that a prospective treatment strategy involving statins could be effective in patients undergoing radiation therapy. The optimal duration of treatment in humans has yet to be determined.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nearly half of adults have hypertension, a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Mitochondrial hyperacetylation is linked to hypertension, but the role of acetylation of specific proteins is not clear. We hypothesized that acetylation of mitochondrial CypD (cyclophilin D) at K166 contributes to endothelial dysfunction and hypertension. METHODS To test this hypothesis, we studied CypD acetylation in patients with essential hypertension, defined a pathogenic role of CypD acetylation in deacetylation mimetic CypD-K166R mutant mice and endothelial-specific GCN5L1 (general control of amino acid synthesis 5 like 1)-deficient mice using an Ang II (angiotensin II) model of hypertension. RESULTS Arterioles from hypertensive patients had 280% higher CypD acetylation coupled with reduced Sirt3 (sirtuin 3) and increased GCN5L1 levels. GCN5L1 regulates mitochondrial protein acetylation and promotes CypD acetylation, which is counteracted by mitochondrial deacetylase Sirt3. In human aortic endothelial cells, GCN5L1 depletion prevents superoxide overproduction. Deacetylation mimetic CypD-K166R mice were protected from vascular oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and Ang II-induced hypertension. Ang II-induced hypertension increased mitochondrial GCN5L1 and reduced Sirt3 levels resulting in a 250% increase in GCN5L1/Sirt3 ratio promoting CypD acetylation. Treatment with mitochondria-targeted scavenger of cytotoxic isolevuglandins (mito2HOBA) normalized GCN5L1/Sirt3 ratio, reduced CypD acetylation, and attenuated hypertension. The role of mitochondrial acetyltransferase GCN5L1 in the endothelial function was tested in endothelial-specific GCN5L1 knockout mice. Depletion of endothelial GCN5L1 prevented Ang II-induced mitochondrial oxidative stress, reduced the maladaptive switch of vascular metabolism to glycolysis, prevented inactivation of endothelial nitric oxide, preserved endothelial-dependent relaxation, and attenuated hypertension. CONCLUSIONS These data support the pathogenic role of CypD acetylation in endothelial dysfunction and hypertension. We suggest that targeting cytotoxic mitochondrial isolevuglandins and GCN5L1 reduces CypD acetylation, which may be beneficial in cardiovascular disease.

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
Background The incidental use of statins during radiation therapy has been associated with a reduced long-term risk of developing atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. However, the mechanisms by which statins protect the vasculature from irradiation injury remain poorly understood. Objectives Identify the mechanisms by which the hydrophilic and lipophilic statins pravastatin and atorvastatin preserve endothelial function after irradiation. Methods Cultured human coronary and umbilical vein endothelial cells irradiated with 4 Gy and mice subjected to 12 Gy head-and-neck irradiation were pretreated with statins and tested for endothelial dysfunction, nitric oxide production, oxidative stress, and various mitochondrial phenotypes at 24 and 240 h after irradiation. Results Both pravastatin (hydrophilic) and atorvastatin (lipophilic) were sufficient to prevent the loss of endothelium-dependent relaxation of arteries after head-and-neck irradiation, preserve the production of nitric oxide by endothelial cells, and suppress the cytosolic reactive oxidative stress associated with irradiation. However, only pravastatin inhibited irradiation-induced production of mitochondrial superoxide; damage to the mitochondrial DNA; loss of electron transport chain activity; and expression of inflammatory markers. Conclusions Our findings reveal some mechanistic underpinnings of the vasoprotective effects of statins after irradiation. Whereas both pravastatin and atorvastatin can shield from endothelial dysfunction after irradiation, pravastatin additionally suppresses mitochondrial injury and inflammatory responses involving mitochondria. Clinical follow-up studies will be necessary to determine whether hydrophilic statins are more effective than their lipophilic counterparts in reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients undergoing radiation therapy.

Abstract
Background Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with a strongly increased risk for restenosis after angioplasty driven by proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Here, we sought to determine whether and how mitochondrial dysfunction in T2D drives VSMC proliferation with a focus on ROS and intracellular [Ca 2+ ] that both drive cell proliferation, occur in T2D and are regulated by mitochondrial activity. Methods Using a diet-induced mouse model of T2D, the inhibition of the mitochondrial Ca 2+ /calmodulin-dependent kinase II (mtCaMKII), a regulator of Ca 2+ entry via the mitochondrial Ca 2+ uniporter selectively in VSMCs, we performed in vivo phenotyping after mechanical injury and established the mechanisms of excessive proliferation in cultured VSMCs. Results In T2D, the inhibition of mtCaMKII reduced both neointima formation after mechanical injury and the proliferation of cultured VSMCs. VSMCs from T2D mice displayed accelerated proliferation, reduced mitochondrial Ca 2+ entry and membrane potential with elevated baseline [Ca 2+ ] cyto compared to cells from normoglycemic mice. Accelerated proliferation after PDGF treatment was driven by activation of Erk1/2 and its upstream regulators. Hyperactivation of Erk1/2 was Ca 2+ -dependent rather than mitochondrial ROS-driven Ca 2+ -dependent and included the activation of CaMKII in the cytosol. The inhibition of mtCaMKII exaggerated the Ca 2+ imbalance by lowering mitochondrial Ca 2+ entry and increasing baseline [Ca 2+ ] cyto , further enhancing baseline Erk1/2 activation. With inhibition of mtCaMKII, PDGF treatment had no additional effect on cell proliferation. Inhibition of activated CaMKII in the cytosol decreased excessive Erk1/2 activation and reduced VSMC proliferation. Conclusions Collectively, our results provide evidence for the molecular mechanisms of enhanced VSMC proliferation after mechanical injury by mitochondrial Ca 2+ entry in T2D.

Citronellal Attenuates Oxidative Stress-Induced Mitochondrial Damage through TRPM2/NHE1 Pathway and Effectively Inhibits Endothelial Dysfunction in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:2241.

Abstract
In type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), oxidative stress induces endothelial dysfunction (ED), which is closely related to the formation of atherosclerosis. However, there are few effective drugs to prevent and cure it. Citronellal (CT) is an aromatic active substance extracted from citronella plants. Recently, CT has been shown to prevent ED, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether CT ameliorated T2DM-induced ED by inhibiting the TRPM2/NHE1 signal pathway. Transient receptor potential channel M2 (TRPM2) is a Ca2+-permeable cation channel activated by oxidative stress, which damages endothelial cell barrier function and further leads to ED or atherosclerosis in T2DM. The Na+/H+ exchanger 1 (NHE1), a transmembrane protein, also plays an important role in ED. Whether TRPM2 and NHE1 are involved in the mechanism of CT improving ED in T2DM still needs further study. Through the evaluations of ophthalmoscope, HE and Oil red staining, vascular function, oxidative stress level, and mitochondrial membrane potential evaluation, we observed that CT not only reduced the formation of lipid deposition but also inhibited ED and suppressed oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial damage in vasculature of T2DM rats. The expressions of NHE1 and TRPM2 was up-regulated in the carotid vessels of T2DM rats; NHE1 expression was also upregulated in endothelial cells with overexpression of TRPM2, but CT reversed the up-regulation of NHE1 in vivo and in vitro. In contrast, CT had no inhibitory effect on the expression of NHE1 in TRPM2 knockout mice. Our study show that CT suppressed the expression of NHE1 and TPRM2, alleviated oxidative stress-induced mitochondrial damage, and imposed a protective effect on ED in T2DM rats.
