Abstract
Introduction: Uremic pruritus (UP) is a prevalent symptom in patients suffering from uremia, yet its underlying etiology and mechanisms remain incompletely elucidated. Given the significant incidence of UP, identifying specific alterations in proteins present in the blood of UP patients could offer insights into the potential biological pathways associated with UP and facilitate the exploration of biomarkers. Methods: In this study, we employed LC-MS/MS-based data-independent acquisition (DIA) mode to analyze serum samples obtained from 54 UP patients categorized as DKD-UP, HN-UP, and GN-UP (n = 18 for each subgroup), along with 18 uremic patients without pruritus (Negative) and 18 CKD patients without pruritus (CKD). Through DIA mode analysis, a total of 7075 peptides and 959 proteins were quantified. Within these, we identified four upregulated and 13 downregulated Differentially Expressed Proteins (DEPs) in DKD-UP versus Negative, five upregulated and 22 downregulated DEPs in HN-UP versus Negative, and three upregulated and 23 downregulated DEPs in GN-UP versus Negative. Furthermore, we conducted an intersection analysis of the DEPs across these three comparison groups to derive a set of common DEPs (COMP). Subsequently, a total of 67 common DEPs were identified in the three UP groups when compared to the CKD group, with 40 DEPs showing upregulation and 27 DEPs displaying downregulation. Results: Following Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) analyses, we observed that the DEPs distinguishing UP from CKD were primarily associated with mitochondrial function (MT-CYB, PRDX2, TOMM22), inflammation (CD59, CSF1), renal injury (WFDC2), and neural function (CAP1, VGF). Discussion: Our findings contribute to a potential molecular comprehension of UP pathogenesis, shedding light on the identification of these DEPs as plausible biomarkers for UP.

Abstract
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy (referred to as cardiac hypertrophy) is a maladaptive response of the heart to a variety of pathological stimuli, and cardiac hypertrophy is an independent risk factor for heart failure and sudden death. Currently, the treatments for cardiac hypertrophy are limited to improving symptoms and have little effect. Elucidation of the developmental process of cardiac hypertrophy at the molecular level and the identification of new targets for the treatment of cardiac hypertrophy are crucial. In this review, we summarize the research on multiple active substances related to the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy and the signaling pathways involved and focus on the role of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling in the development of cardiac hypertrophy and the identification of potential targets for molecular intervention. We aim to identify important signaling molecules with clinical value and hope to help promote the precise treatment of cardiac hypertrophy and thus improve patient outcomes.

Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 165:115119. [PMID: 37423168 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2023] [Revised: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 07/01/2023] [Indexed: 07/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Traditional Chinese medicine offer unique advantages in mitigating and preventing early or intermediate stage for treating heart failure (HF). The purpose of this study was to assess the in vivo therapeutic efficacy of Xin-shu-bao (XSB) at different stages of HF following induction of a myocardial infarction (MI) in mice and use mass spectrometry-based proteomics to identify potential therapeutic targets for different stages of HF based on the molecular changes following XSB treatment. XSB had high cardioprotective efficacy in the pre-HF with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) stages, but had a weak or no effect in the post-HFrEF stages. This was supported by echocardiographic measurements showing that XSB decreased ejection fraction and fractional shortening in HF. XSB administration improved cardiac function in the pre- and post-HFrEF mouse model, ameliorated deleterious changes to the morphology and subcellular structure of cardiomyocytes, and reduced cardiac fibrosis. Proteomics analysis showed that XSB intervention exclusively targeted thrombomodulin (THBD) and stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) proteins when administered to the mice for both 8 and 6 weeks. Furthermore, XSB intervention for 8, 6, and 4 weeks after MI induction increased the expression of fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) and decreased arrestin β1 (ARRB1), which are classic biomarkers of cardiac fibroblast transformation and collagen synthesis, respectively. Overall, the study suggests that early intervention with XSB could be an effective strategy for preventing HFrEF and highlights potential therapeutic targets for further investigation into HFrEF remediation strategies.

Abstract
The heart requires a variety of energy substrates to maintain proper contractile function. Glucose and long-chain fatty acids (FA) are the major cardiac metabolic substrates under physiological conditions. Upon stress, a shift of cardiac substrate preference toward either glucose or FA is associated with cardiac diseases. For example, in pressure-overloaded hypertrophic hearts, there is a long-lasting substrate shift toward glucose, while in hearts with diabetic cardiomyopathy, the fuel is switched toward FA. Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), a well-established calcium (Ca2+) sensor of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ store, is increasingly recognized as a critical player in mediating both cardiac hypertrophy and diabetic cardiomyopathy. However, the cause-effect relationship between STIM1 and glucose/FA metabolism and the possible mechanisms by which STIM1 is involved in these cardiac metabolic diseases are poorly understood. In this review, we first discussed STIM1-dependent signaling in cardiomyocytes and metabolic changes in cardiac hypertrophy and diabetic cardiomyopathy. Second, we provided examples of the involvement of STIM1 in energy metabolism to discuss the emerging role of STIM1 in the regulation of energy substrate preference in metabolic cardiac diseases and speculated the corresponding underlying molecular mechanisms of the crosstalk between STIM1 and cardiac energy substrate preference. Finally, we briefly discussed and presented future perspectives on the possibility of targeting STIM1 to rescue cardiac metabolic diseases. Taken together, STIM1 emerges as a key player in regulating cardiac energy substrate preference, and revealing the underlying molecular mechanisms by which STIM1 mediates cardiac energy metabolism could be helpful to find novel targets to prevent or treat cardiac metabolic diseases.

STIM1 ablation impairs exercise-induced physiological cardiac hypertrophy and dysregulates autophagy in mouse hearts. J Appl Physiol (1985) 2023; 134:1287-1299.

Abstract
Cardiac stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), a key mediator of store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE), is a known determinant of cardiomyocyte pathological growth in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We examined the role of STIM1 and SOCE in response to exercise-dependent physiological hypertrophy. Wild-type (WT) mice subjected to exercise training (WT-Ex) showed a significant increase in exercise capacity and heart weight compared with sedentary (WT-Sed) mice. Moreover, myocytes from WT-Ex hearts displayed an increase in length, but not width, compared with WT-Sed myocytes. Conversely, exercised cardiac-specific STIM1 knock-out mice (cSTIM1KO-Ex), although displaying significant increase in heart weight and cardiac dilation, evidenced no changes in myocyte size and displayed a decreased exercise capacity, impaired cardiac function, and premature death compared with sedentary cardiac-specific STIM1 knock-out mice (cSTIM1KO-Sed). Confocal Ca2+ imaging demonstrated enhanced SOCE in WT-Ex myocytes compared with WT-Sed myocytes with no measurable SOCE detected in cSTIM1KO myocytes. Exercise training induced a significant increase in cardiac phospho-Akt Ser473 in WT mice but not in cSTIM1KO mice. No differences were observed in phosphorylation of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and glycogen synthase kinase (GSK) in exercised versus sedentary cSTIM1KO mice hearts. cSTIM1KO-Sed mice showed increased basal MAPK phosphorylation compared with WT-Sed that was not altered by exercise training. Finally, histological analysis revealed exercise resulted in increased autophagy in cSTIM1KO but not in WT myocytes. Taken together, our results suggest that adaptive cardiac hypertrophy in response to exercise training involves STIM1-mediated SOCE. Our results demonstrate that STIM1 is involved in and essential for the myocyte longitudinal growth and mTOR activation in response to endurance exercise training.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) has been implicated in pathological cardiac hypertrophy; however, its role in physiological hypertrophy is unknown. Here we report that SOCE is also essential for physiological cardiac hypertrophy and functional adaptations in response to endurance exercise. These adaptations were associated with activation of AKT/mTOR pathway and curtailed cardiac autophagy and degeneration. Thus, SOCE is a common mechanism and an important bifurcation point for signaling paths involved in physiological and pathological hypertrophy.

Abstract
Epirubicin (EPI) is one of the most widely used anthracycline chemotherapy drugs, yet its cardiotoxicity severely limits its clinical application. Altered intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis has been shown to contribute to EPI-induced cell death and hypertrophy in the heart. While store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) has recently been linked with cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure, its role in EPI-induced cardiotoxicity remains unknown. Using a publicly available RNA-seq dataset of human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes, gene analysis showed that cells treated with 2 µM EPI for 48 h had significantly reduced expression of SOCE machinery genes, e.g., Orai1, Orai3, TRPC3, TRPC4, Stim1, and Stim2. Using HL-1, a cardiomyocyte cell line derived from adult mouse atria, and Fura-2, a ratiometric Ca2+ fluorescent dye, this study confirmed that SOCE was indeed significantly reduced in HL-1 cells treated with EPI for 6 h or longer. However, HL-1 cells presented increased SOCE as well as increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) production at 30 min after EPI treatment. EPI-induced apoptosis was evidenced by disruption of F-actin and increased cleavage of caspase-3 protein. The HL-1 cells that survived to 24 h after EPI treatment demonstrated enlarged cell sizes, up-regulated expression of brain natriuretic peptide (a hypertrophy marker), and increased NFAT4 nuclear translocation. Treatment by BTP2, a known SOCE blocker, decreased the initial EPI-enhanced SOCE, rescued HL-1 cells from EPI-induced apoptosis, and reduced NFAT4 nuclear translocation and hypertrophy. This study suggests that EPI may affect SOCE in two phases: the initial enhancement phase and the following cell compensatory reduction phase. Administration of a SOCE blocker at the initial enhancement phase may protect cardiomyocytes from EPI-induced toxicity and hypertrophy.

Abstract
Right ventricular failure (RVF) is the most important prognostic factor for morbidity and mortality in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) or pulmonary hypertension (PH) caused by left heart diseases. However, right ventricle (RV) remodeling is understudied and not targeted by specific therapies. This can be partly explained by the lack of basic knowledge of RV remodeling. Since the physiology and hemodynamic function of the RV differ from those of the left ventricle (LV), the mechanisms of LV dysfunction cannot be generalized to that of the RV, albeit a knowledge of these being helpful to understanding RV remodeling and dysfunction. Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) has recently emerged to participate in the LV cardiomyocyte Ca2+ homeostasis and as a critical player in Ca2+ mishandling in a pathological context. In this paper, we highlight the current knowledge on the SOCE contribution to the LV and RV dysfunctions, as SOCE molecules are present in both compartments. he relative lack of studies on RV dysfunction indicates the necessity of further investigations, a significant challenge over the coming years.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy develops in response to increased workload to reduce ventricular wall stress and maintain function and efficiency. Pathological hypertrophy can be adaptive at the beginning. However, if the stimulus persists, it may progress to ventricular chamber dilatation, contractile dysfunction, and heart failure, resulting in poorer outcome and increased social burden. The main pathophysiological mechanisms of pathological hypertrophy are cell death, fibrosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, dysregulation of Ca 2 + -handling proteins, metabolic changes, fetal gene expression reactivation, impaired protein and mitochondrial quality control, altered sarcomere structure, and inadequate angiogenesis. Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a condition in which cardiac pathological hypertrophy mainly develop due to insulin resistance and subsequent hyperglycaemia, associated with altered fatty acid metabolism, altered calcium homeostasis and inflammation. In this review, we summarize the underlying molecular mechanisms of pathological hypertrophy development and progression, which can be applied in the development of future novel therapeutic strategies in both reversal and prevention.

Abstract
Tight spatiotemporal regulation of intracellular Ca2+ plays a critical role in regulating diverse cellular functions including cell survival, metabolism, and transcription. As a result, eukaryotic cells have developed a wide variety of mechanisms for controlling Ca2+ influx and efflux across the plasma membrane as well as Ca2+ release and uptake from intracellular stores. The STIM and Orai protein families comprising of STIM1, STIM2, Orai1, Orai2, and Orai3, are evolutionarily highly conserved proteins that are core components of all mammalian Ca2+ signaling systems. STIM1 and Orai1 are considered key players in the regulation of Store Operated Calcium Entry (SOCE), where release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores such as the Endoplasmic/Sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) triggers Ca2+ influx across the plasma membrane. SOCE, which has been widely characterized in non-excitable cells, plays a central role in Ca2+-dependent transcriptional regulation. In addition to their role in Ca2+ signaling, STIM1 and Orai1 have been shown to contribute to the regulation of metabolism and mitochondrial function. STIM and Orai proteins are also subject to redox modifications, which influence their activities. Considering their ubiquitous expression, there has been increasing interest in the roles of STIM and Orai proteins in excitable cells such as neurons and myocytes. While controversy remains as to the importance of SOCE in excitable cells, STIM1 and Orai1 are essential for cellular homeostasis and their disruption is linked to various diseases associated with aging such as cardiovascular disease and neurodegeneration. The recent identification of splice variants for most STIM and Orai isoforms while complicating our understanding of their function, may also provide insight into some of the current contradictions on their roles. Therefore, the goal of this review is to describe our current understanding of the molecular regulation of STIM and Orai proteins and their roles in normal physiology and diseases of aging, with a particular focus on heart disease and neurodegeneration.

BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2022; 22:147. [PMID: 35379188 PMCID: PMC8981683 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-022-02586-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/15/2021] [Accepted: 03/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Metabolic syndrome (MetS) became a tremendous public health burden in the last decades. Store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) is a unique mechanism that causes a calcium influx, which is triggered by calcium store depletion. MetS-induced alterations in cardiac calcium signaling, especially in SOCE are still unclear. Therefore, we aim to examine the possible role of SOCE and its components (STIM1 and Orai1) in the MetS-induced cardiac remodeling. METHODS We used male, adult (12 weeks) Wistar albino rats (n = 20). Animals were randomly divided into two groups which were: control (C) and MetS. We gave 33% sucrose solution to animals instead of water for 24 weeks to establish MetS model. In the end, papillary muscle function was evaluated, and various electrophysiological analyses were made in isolated cardiomyocytes. Additionally, STIM1 and Orai1 protein and mRNA expressions were analyzed. RESULTS We observed a deterioration in contractility in MetS animals and demonstrated the contribution of SOCE by applying a SOCE inhibitor (BTP2). Calcium spark frequency was increased while its amplitude was decreasing in MetS hearts, which was reversed after SOCE inhibition. The amplitude of transient calcium changes in the MetS group was decreased, and it decreased further BTP2 application. Both protein and mRNA levels of STIM1 and Orai1 were increased significantly in MetS hearts. CONCLUSION Current data indicate the significant contribution of SOCE to cardiac calcium handling in the MetS model. We think MetS-induced SOCE activation is a compensation mechanism that is required for the continuum of proper cardiac functioning, although the activation can also cause cardiac hypertrophy.

Lingguizhugan decoction dynamically regulates MAPKs and AKT signaling pathways to retrogress the pathological progression of cardiac hypertrophy to heart failure. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2022; 98:153951.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is a grave health concern, with high morbidity and mortality, calling for the urgent need for new and alternative pharmacotherapies. Lingguizhugan decoction (LD) is a classic Chinese formula clinically used to treat HF. However, the underlying mechanisms involved are not fully elucidated. PURPOSE Based on that, this study aims to investigate the effects and underlying mechanisms of LD on HF. METHODS After confirming the therapeutic benefits of LD in transverse aortic constriction (TAC)-induced HF mice, network pharmacology and transcriptomic analyzes were utilized to predict the potential molecular targets and pathways of LD treatment in failing hearts, which were evaluated at 3 and 9 w after TAC. UHPLC-QE-MS analysis was utilized to detect bioactive ingredients from LD and plasma of LD-treated rats. RESULTS Our results showed that LD markedly alleviated cardiac dysfunction via down-regulating CH-related genes and proteins expression in TAC mice. Significantly, cardiac hypertrophy signaling, including AKT and MAPKs signaling pathways, were identified, suggesting the pathways as likely regulatory targets for LD treatment. LD inhibited p38 and ERK phosphorylated expression levels, with the latter effect likely dependent on regulation of AMPK. Interestingly, LD exerted a dual modulatory role in the AKT-GSK3β/mTOR/P70S6K signaling pathway's regulation, which was characterized by stimulatory activity at 3 w and inhibitory effects at 9 w. Finally, 15 bioactive compounds detected from plasma were predicted as the potential regulators of the AKT-GSK3β/mTOR and MAPKs signaling pathways. CONCLUSION Our study shows LD's therapeutic efficacy in failing hearts, signifies LD as HF medication that acts dynamically by balancing AKT-GSK3β/mTOR/P70S6K and MAPKs pathways, and reveals possible bioactive compounds responsible for LD effects on HF.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is a ubiquitous Ca2+ signaling pathway that is evolutionarily conserved across eukaryotes. SOCE is triggered physiologically when the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca2+ stores are emptied through activation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors. SOCE is mediated by the Ca2+ release-activated Ca2+ (CRAC) channels, which are highly Ca2+ selective. Upon store depletion, the ER Ca2+-sensing STIM proteins aggregate and gain extended conformations spanning the ER-plasma membrane junctional space to bind and activate Orai, the pore-forming proteins of hexameric CRAC channels. In recent years, studies on STIM and Orai tissue-specific knockout mice and gain- and loss-of-function mutations in humans have shed light on the physiological functions of SOCE in various tissues. Here, we describe recent findings on the composition of native CRAC channels and their physiological functions in immune, muscle, secretory, and neuronal systems to draw lessons from transgenic mice and human diseases caused by altered CRAC channel activity.

Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is a major regulator of store-operated calcium entry in non-excitable cells. Recent studies have suggested that STIM1 plays a role in pathological hypertrophy; however, the physiological role of STIM1 in the heart is not well understood. We have shown that mice with a cardiomyocyte deletion of STIM1 (cr STIM1-/- ) develop ER stress, mitochondrial, and metabolic abnormalities, and dilated cardiomyopathy. However, the specific signaling pathways and kinases regulated by STIM1 are largely unknown. Therefore, we used a discovery-based kinomics approach to identify kinases differentially regulated by STIM1. Twelve-week male control and cr STIM1-/- mice were injected with saline or phenylephrine (PE, 15 mg/kg, s.c, 15 min), and hearts obtained for analysis of the Serine/threonine kinome. Primary analysis was performed using BioNavigator 6.0 (PamGene), using scoring from the Kinexus PhosphoNET database and GeneGo network modeling, and confirmed using standard immunoblotting. Kinomics revealed significantly lower PKG and protein kinase C (PKC) signaling in the hearts of the cr STIM1-/- in comparison to control hearts, confirmed by immunoblotting for the calcium-dependent PKC isoform PKCα and its downstream target MARCKS. Similar reductions in cr STIM1-/- hearts were found for the kinases: MEK1/2, AMPK, and PDPK1, and in the activity of the Ca2+ -dependent phosphatase, calcineurin. Electrocardiogram analysis also revealed that cr STIM1-/- mice have significantly lower HR and prolonged QT interval. In conclusion, we have shown several calcium-dependent kinases and phosphatases are regulated by STIM1 in the adult mouse heart. This has important implications in understanding how STIM1 contributes to the regulation of cardiac physiology and pathophysiology.

Abstract
Heart failure is often preceded by pathological cardiac hypertrophy, a thickening of the heart musculature driven by complex gene regulatory and signaling processes. The Drosophila heart has great potential as a genetic model for deciphering the underlying mechanisms of cardiac hypertrophy. However, current methods for evaluating hypertrophy of the Drosophila heart are laborious and difficult to carry out reproducibly. Here, we demonstrate that microcomputerized tomography (microCT) is an accessible, highly reproducible method for nondestructive, quantitative analysis of Drosophila heart morphology and size. To validate our microCT approach for analyzing Drosophila cardiac hypertrophy, we show that expression of constitutively active Ras (Ras85DV12), previously shown to cause hypertrophy of the fly heart, results in significant thickening of both adult and larval heart walls when measured from microCT images. We then show using microCT analysis that genetic upregulation of store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) driven by expression of constitutively active Stim (StimCA) or Orai (OraiCA) proteins also results in significant hypertrophy of the Drosophila heart, through a process that specifically depends on Orai Ca2+ influx channels. Intravital imaging of heart contractility revealed significantly reduced end-diastolic and end-systolic dimensions in StimCA- and OraiCA-expressing hearts, consistent with the hypertrophic phenotype. These results demonstrate that increased SOCE activity is an important driver of hypertrophic cardiomyocyte growth, and demonstrate how microCT analysis combined with tractable genetic tools in Drosophila can be used to delineate molecular signaling processes that underlie cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Genetic analysis of Drosophila cardiac hypertrophy holds immense potential for the discovery of new therapeutic targets to prevent and treat heart failure. This potential has been hindered by a lack of rapid and effective methods for analyzing heart size in flies. Here, we demonstrate that analysis of the Drosophila heart with microcomputerized tomography yields accurate and highly reproducible heart size measurements that can be used to analyze heart growth and cardiac hypertrophy in Drosophila.

Abstract
Background The neonatal heart maintains its entire regeneration capacity within days after birth. Using quantitative phosphoproteomics technology, we identified that SGK3 (serine/threonine-protein kinase 3) in the neonatal heart is highly expressed and activated after myocardial infarction. This study aimed to uncover the function and related mechanisms of SGK3 on cardiomyocyte proliferation and cardiac repair after apical resection or ischemia/reperfusion injury. Methods and Results The effect of SGK3 on proliferation and oxygen glucose deprivation/reoxygenation- induced apoptosis in isolated cardiomyocytes was evaluated using cardiomyocyte-specific SGK3 overexpression or knockdown adenovirus5 vector. In vivo, gain- and loss-of-function experiments using cardiomyocyte-specific adeno-associated virus 9 were performed to determine the effect of SGK3 in cardiomyocyte proliferation and cardiac repair after apical resection or ischemia/reperfusion injury. In vitro, overexpression of SGK3 enhanced, whereas knockdown of SGK3 decreased, the cardiomyocyte proliferation ratio. In vivo, inhibiting the expression of SGK3 shortened the time window of cardiac regeneration after apical resection in neonatal mice, and overexpression of SGK3 significantly promoted myocardial repair and cardiac function recovery after ischemia/reperfusion injury in adult mice. Mechanistically, SGK3 promoted cardiomyocyte regeneration and myocardial repair after cardiac injury by inhibiting GSK-3β (glycogen synthase kinase-3β) activity and upregulating β-catenin expression. SGK3 also upregulated the expression of cell cycle promoting genes G1/S-specific cyclin-D1, c-myc (cellular-myelocytomatosis viral oncogene), and cdc20 (cell division cycle 20), but downregulated the expression of cell cycle negative regulators cyclin kinase inhibitor P 21 and cyclin kinase inhibitor P 27. Conclusions Our study reveals a key role of SGK3 on cardiac repair after apical resection or ischemia/reperfusion injury, which may reopen a novel therapeutic option for myocardial infarction.

Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), as a dynamic calcium signal transducer and key regulator of cardiomyocyte Ca2+ homeostasis, has been implicated in various pathological processes related to sudden cardiac death originated from coronary artery disease (SCD-CAD). In this study, we performed a systematic variant screening on promoter region of STIM1 to filter potential functional genetic variations. Based on the screening results, a 5-bp insertion/deletion (indel) polymorphism (rs3061890) in promoter region of STIM1 was selected as the candidate variant. We investigated the association of rs3061890 with SCD-CAD susceptibility in Chinese Han populations. The homozygote del/del genotype significantly increased risk for SCD-CAD as compared with the ins/ins genotype (odds ratio, 2.86 [95% confidence interval, 1.69-4.29]; P = 2.3 × 10-5). Compared with the common allele, the 5-bp deletion risk allele exhibited lower transcriptional capacity in luciferase assays. Intriguingly, genotype-phenotype correlation studies using human myocardium tissue samples revealed that the expression of STIM1 was associated with the genotype of rs3061890. Computational prediction combined with electrophoretic mobility shift (EMSA) and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays provided convincing evidence for stronger binding affinity of ELF1 (E74 like ETS transcription factor 1) with the deletion allele promoter. Taken together, our findings implied an allele-specific mechanism of regulating the transcription of STIM1 via ELF1, which contribute to SCD-CAD susceptibility. rs3061890 may thus considered as a candidate genetic marker for SCD-CAD prediction and prevention.

Abstract
Autophagy has been proved to play a vital role in cardiac hypertrophy. The present study was designed to investigate the relationship between miR-100-5p and autophagy in the development of cardiac hypertrophy. Here, miR-100-5p expression was detected in abdominal aortic coarctation (AAC)-induced cardiac hypertrophy rats and Angiotensin II (Ang II)-stimulated cardiomyocytes. In vitro and in vivo experiments were performed to explore the function of miR-100-5p on autophagy and cardiac hypertrophy. We also investigated the mechanism of miR-100-5p on autophagy with dual-luciferase reporter assays, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), western blot, immunofluorescence, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results showed that miR-100-5p was highly expressed in hypertrophic hearts and Ang II-induced cardiomyocytes. Overexpression of miR-100-5p promoted the expression of cardiac hypertrophy markers ANP, BNP and β-MHC and cell surface area, while those were suppressed by miR-100-5p inhibitor. Knockdown of miR-100-5p by antagomiR significantly improves cardiac function and attenuate cardiac hypertrophy in vivo. Mechanistic investigation has found that miR-100-5p promote autophagy by targeting mTOR. Inhibition of autophagy by 3-methyladenine (3-MA) or mTOR overexpression could reverse the function of miR-100-5p in cardiac hypertrophy. These results elucidate that miR-100-5p promoted the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy through autophagy activation by targeting mTOR.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Doxorubicin (Dox) is an effective anticancer agent; however, its cardiotoxicity remains a challenge. Dysfunction of intracellular calcium ion (Ca2+) is implicated in the process of Dox-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Although store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is suggested to be responsible for Ca2+ entry in cardiomyocytes, the direct role of store-operated Ca2+ channels in Dox-related cardiomyocyte apoptosis is unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS Cardiomyocyte Stim1-specific knockout or overexpression mice were treated with Dox. Cardiomyocytes were pretreated with Stim1 adenovirus or siRNA followed by Dox incubation in vitro. Cardiac function and underlying mechanisms echocardiography were assessed via immunofluorescence, flow cytometry, real-time PCR, Western blotting and immunoprecipitation. RESULTS We observed the inhibition of Stim1 expression, association of Stim1 to Orai1 or Trpc1, and SOCE in Dox-treated mouse myocardium and cardiomyocytes. Orai1 and Trpc1 expression remained unchanged. Cardiomyocyte-specific deficiency of Stim1 exacerbated Dox-induced cardiac dysfunction and myocardial apoptosis. However, specific overexpression of Stim1 in the myocardium was associated with amelioration of cardiac dysfunction and myocardial apoptosis. In vitro, STIM1 knockdown potentiated Dox-induced AC16 human cardiomyocyte apoptosis. This apoptosis was attenuated by STIM1 upregulation. Moreover, STIM1 downregulation enhanced Dox-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in cardiomyocytes. In contrast, STIM1 overexpression inhibited the activation of the above molecular markers of ER stress. Immunoprecipitation assay showed that STIM1 interacted with GRP78 in cardiomyocytes. This interaction was attenuated in response to Dox treatment. CONCLUSION Our data demonstrate that cardiomyocyte STIM1 binding to GRP78 ameliorates Dox cardiotoxicity by inhibiting pro-apoptotic ER stress.

Abstract
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) has been proven to exert its functions by both enzymatic and nonenzymatic pathways. The nonenzymatic function of DPP4 in diabetes-associated cognitive impairment remains unexplored. We determined DPP4 protein concentrations or its enzymatic activity in type 2 diabetic patients and db/db mice and tested the impact of the non-enzymatic function of DPP4 on mitochondrial dysfunction and cognitive impairment both in vivo and in vitro. The results show that increased DPP4 activity was an independent risk factor for incident mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in type 2 diabetic patients. In addition, DPP4 was highly expressed in the hippocampus of db/db mice and contributed to mitochondria dysfunction and cognitive impairment. Mechanistically, DPP4 might bind to PAR2 in the hippocampus and trigger GSK-3β activation, which downregulates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1 alpha expression and leads to mitochondria dysfunction, thereby promoting cognitive impairment in diabetes. Our findings indicate that the nonenzymatic function of DPP4 might promote mitochondrial dysfunction and cognitive impairment in diabetes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION/AIMS Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) is a reticular Ca2+ sensor composed of a luminal and a cytosolic domain. Autosomal dominant mutations in STIM1 cause tubular aggregate myopathy and Stormorken syndrome or its variant York platelet syndrome. In this study we aimed to expand the features related to new variants in STIM1. METHODS We performed a cross-sectional study of individuals harboring monoallelic STIM1 variants recruited at five tertiary centers involved in a study of inherited myopathies analyzed with a multigene-targeted panel. RESULTS We identified seven individuals (age range, 26-57 years) harboring variants in STIM1, including five novel changes: three located in the EF-hand domain, one in the sterile α motif (SAM) domain, and one in the cytoplasmatic region of the protein. Functional evaluation of the pathogenic variants using a heterologous expression system and measuring store-operated calcium entry demonstrated their causative role and suggested a link of new variants with the clinical phenotype. Muscle contractures, found in three individuals, showed variability in body distribution and in the number of joints involved. Three patients showed cardiac and respiratory involvement. Short stature, hyposplenism, sensorineural hearing loss, hypothyroidism, and Gilbert syndrome were variably observed among the patients. Laboratory tests revealed hyperCKemia in six patients, thrombocytopenia in two patients, and hypocalcemia in one patient. Muscle biopsy showed the presence of tubular aggregates in three patients, type I fiber atrophy in one patient, and nonspecific myopathic changes in two patients. DISCUSSION Our clinical, histological, and molecular data expand the genetic and clinical spectrum of STIM1-related diseases.

Abstract
This study was established to determine the effect of miRNA-223-3p on the proliferation and apoptosis of hypoxia/reoxygenation-applied H9c2 cardiomyocytes and the associated mechanisms. A hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model was established, with normal cells also used as a control. miRNA-NC,
miRNA-223-3p, anti-miRNA-NC, and anti-miRNA-223-3p plasmids were transfected into normally cultured cardiomyocytes, defined as the miRNA-NC, miRNA-223-3p, anti-miRNA-NC, and anti-miRNA-223-3p groups. In addition, miRNA-223-3p was co-transfected into normally cultured cardiomyocytes with pcDNA3.1
and pcDNA3.1-STIM1 plasmids, followed by treatment with H/R for cells in the miR-NC and miR-223-3p groups, defined as the H/R+miRNA-NC, H/R+miRNA-223-3p, H/R+miRNA-223-3p+pcDNA3.1, and H/R+miRNA-223-3p+pcDNA3.1-STIM1 groups. A liposome method was adopted for assessing transfection. qRT-PCR
was used to detect miRNA-223-3p expression, while western blotting was used to detect protein expression. MTT assay was used to detect cell viability, flow cytometry to detect apoptosis, and dual luciferase reporter gene assay to detect fluorescence activity. After H/R treatment, miR-223-3p,
cyclin D1, and Bcl-2 expression of cardiomyocytes decreased, p21 and Bax expression significantly increased, cell activity decreased, and the apoptosis rate increased. miRNA-223-3p achieved the targeted regulation of STIM1 expression. miRNA-223-3p overexpression promoted the H/R-induced cardiomyocyte
proliferation and inhibited cardiomyocyte apoptosis. STIM1 overexpression reversed the proliferation-promoting and apoptosis-inhibiting effects of miRNA-223-3p on cardiomyocytes treated with H/R. The findings show that miRNA-223-3p overexpression promotes H/R-induced cell proliferation, inhibits
apoptosis, and protects H/R-induced cardiomyocytes from injury, via a mechanism probably associated with STIM1 expression. miRNA-223-3p thus provides a new target for treating cardiomyocyte injury.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. One of the risk factors for HF is cardiac hypertrophy (CH), which is frequently accompanied by cardiac fibrosis (CF). CH and CF are controlled by master regulators mTORC1 and TGF-β, respectively. Type-2-phosphatidylinositol-5-phosphate-4-kinase-gamma (Pip4k2c) is a known mTORC1 regulator. It is shown that Pip4k2c is significantly downregulated in the hearts of CH and HF patients as compared to non-injured hearts. The role of Pip4k2c in the heart during development and disease is unknown. It is shown that deleting Pip4k2c does not affect normal embryonic cardiac development; however, three weeks after TAC, adult Pip4k2c-/- mice has higher rates of CH, CF, and sudden death than wild-type mice. In a gain-of-function study using a TAC mouse model, Pip4k2c is transiently upregulated using a modified mRNA (modRNA) gene delivery platform, which significantly improve heart function, reverse CH and CF, and lead to increased survival. Mechanistically, it is shown that Pip4k2c inhibits TGFβ1 via its N-terminal motif, Pip5k1α, phospho-AKT 1/2/3, and phospho-Smad3. In sum, loss-and-gain-of-function studies in a TAC mouse model are used to identify Pip4k2c as a potential therapeutic target for CF, CH, and HF, for which modRNA is a highly translatable gene therapy approach.

Abstract
Trimeric intracellular cation (TRIC) channels have been identified as monovalent cation channels that are located in the ER/SR membrane. Two isoforms discovered in mammals are TRIC-A (TMEM38a) and TRIC-B (TMEM38b). TRIC-B ubiquitously expresses in all tissues, and TRIC-B-/- mice is lethal at the neonatal stage. TRIC-A mainly expresses in excitable cells. TRIC-A-/- mice survive normally but show abnormal SR Ca2+ handling in both skeletal and cardiac muscle cells. Importantly, TRIC-A mutations have been identified in human patients with stress-induced arrhythmia. In the past decade, important discoveries have been made to understand the structure and function of TRIC channels, especially its role in regulating intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. In this review article, we focus on the potential roles of TRIC-A in regulating cardiac function, particularly its effects on intracellular Ca2+ signaling of cardiomyocytes and discuss the current knowledge gaps.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is an ancient and ubiquitous Ca2+ signaling pathway that is present in virtually every cell type. Over the last two decades, many studies have implicated this non-voltage dependent Ca2+ entry pathway in cardiac physiology. The relevance of the SOCE pathway in cardiomyocytes is often questioned given the well-established role for excitation contraction coupling. In this review, we consider the evidence that STIM1 and SOCE contribute to Ca2+ dynamics in cardiomyocytes. We discuss the relevance of this pathway to cardiac growth in response to developmental and pathologic cues. We also address whether STIM1 contributes to Ca2+ store refilling that likely impacts cardiac pacemaking and arrhythmogenesis in cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) integrates several intracellular and extracellular signals involved in the regulation of anabolic and catabolic processes. mTOR assembles into two macromolecular complexes, named mTORC1 and mTORC2, which have different regulators, substrates and functions. Studies of gain- and loss-of-function animal models of mTOR signaling revealed that mTORC1/2 elicit both adaptive and maladaptive functions in the cardiovascular system. Both mTORC1 and mTORC2 are indispensable for driving cardiac development and cardiac adaption to stress, such as pressure overload. However, persistent and deregulated mTORC1 activation in the heart is detrimental during stress and contributes to the development and progression of cardiac remodeling and genetic and metabolic cardiomyopathies. In this review, we discuss the latest findings regarding the role of mTOR in the cardiovascular system, both under basal conditions and during stress, such as pressure overload, ischemia and metabolic stress. Current data suggest that mTOR modulation may represent a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cardiac diseases.

NADPH oxidase-4 promotes eccentric cardiac hypertrophy in response to volume overload. Cardiovasc Res 2021; 117:178-187. [PMID: 31821410 PMCID: PMC7797217 DOI: 10.1093/cvr/cvz331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2019] [Revised: 11/13/2019] [Accepted: 12/07/2019] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS Chronic pressure or volume overload induce concentric vs. eccentric left ventricular (LV) remodelling, respectively. Previous studies suggest that distinct signalling pathways are involved in these responses. NADPH oxidase-4 (Nox4) is a reactive oxygen species-generating enzyme that can limit detrimental cardiac remodelling in response to pressure overload. This study aimed to assess its role in volume overload-induced remodelling. METHODS AND RESULTS We compared the responses to creation of an aortocaval fistula (Shunt) to induce volume overload in Nox4-null mice (Nox4-/-) vs. wild-type (WT) littermates. Induction of Shunt resulted in a significant increase in cardiac Nox4 mRNA and protein levels in WT mice as compared to Sham controls. Nox4-/- mice developed less eccentric LV remodelling than WT mice (echocardiographic relative wall thickness: 0.30 vs. 0.27, P < 0.05), with less LV hypertrophy at organ level (increase in LV weight/tibia length ratio of 25% vs. 43%, P < 0.01) and cellular level (cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area: 323 µm2 vs. 379 μm2, P < 0.01). LV ejection fraction, foetal gene expression, interstitial fibrosis, myocardial capillary density, and levels of myocyte apoptosis after Shunt were similar in the two genotypes. Myocardial phospho-Akt levels were increased after induction of Shunt in WT mice, whereas levels decreased in Nox4-/- mice (+29% vs. -21%, P < 0.05), associated with a higher level of phosphorylation of the S6 ribosomal protein (S6) and the eIF4E-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1) in WT compared to Nox4-/- mice. We identified that Akt activation in cardiac cells is augmented by Nox4 via a Src kinase-dependent inactivation of protein phosphatase 2A. CONCLUSION Endogenous Nox4 is required for the full development of eccentric cardiac hypertrophy and remodelling during chronic volume overload. Nox4-dependent activation of Akt and its downstream targets S6 and 4E-BP1 may be involved in this effect.

Abstract
Contraction of the striated muscle is fundamental for human existence. The action of voluntary skeletal muscle enables activities such as breathing, establishing body posture, and diverse body movements. Additionally, highly precise motion empowers communication, artistic expression, and other activities that define everyday human life. The involuntary contraction of striated muscle is the core function of the heart and is essential for blood flow. Several ion channels are important in the transduction of action potentials to cytosolic Ca2+ signals that enable muscle contraction; however, other ion channels are involved in the progression of muscle pathologies that can impair normal life or threaten it. This chapter describes types of selective and nonselective Ca2+ permeable ion channels expressed in the striated muscle, their participation in different aspects of muscle excitation and contraction, and their relevance to the progression of some pathological states.

Fluctuation in O-GlcNAcylation inactivates STIM1 to reduce store-operated calcium ion entry via down-regulation of Ser 621 phosphorylation. J Biol Chem 2020; 295:17071-17082. [PMID: 33023909 PMCID: PMC7863906 DOI: 10.1074/jbc.ra120.014271] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/08/2020] [Revised: 10/02/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) plays a pivotal role in store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE), an essential mechanism in cellular calcium signaling and in maintaining cellular calcium balance. Because O-GlcNAcylation plays pivotal roles in various cellular function, we examined the effect of fluctuation in STIM1 O-GlcNAcylation on SOCE activity. We found that both increase and decrease in STIM1 O-GlcNAcylation impaired SOCE activity. To determine the molecular basis, we established STIM1-knockout HEK293 (STIM1-KO-HEK) cells using the CRISPR/Cas9 system and transfected STIM1 WT (STIM1-KO-WT-HEK), S621A (STIM1-KO-S621A-HEK), or T626A (STIM1-KO-T626A-HEK) cells. Using these cells, we examined the possible O-GlcNAcylation sites of STIM1 to determine whether the sites were O-GlcNAcylated. Co-immunoprecipitation analysis revealed that Ser621 and Thr626 were O-GlcNAcylated and that Thr626 was O-GlcNAcylated in the steady state but Ser621 was not. The SOCE activity in STIM1-KO-S621A-HEK and STIM1-KO-T626A-HEK cells was lower than that in STIM1-KO-WT-HEK cells because of reduced phosphorylation at Ser621 Treatment with the O-GlcNAcase inhibitor Thiamet G or O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) transfection, which increases O-GlcNAcylation, reduced SOCE activity, whereas treatment with the OGT inhibitor ST045849 or siOGT transfection, which decreases O-GlcNAcylation, also reduced SOCE activity. Decrease in SOCE activity due to increase and decrease in O-GlcNAcylation was attributable to reduced phosphorylation at Ser621 These data suggest that both decrease in O-GlcNAcylation at Thr626 and increase in O-GlcNAcylation at Ser621 in STIM1 lead to impairment of SOCE activity through decrease in Ser621 phosphorylation. Targeting STIM1 O-GlcNAcylation could provide a promising treatment option for the related diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
The archetypal store-operated Ca2+ channels (SOCs), Orai1, which are stimulated by the endo/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) Ca2+ sensor stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1) upon Ca2+ store depletion is traditionally viewed as instrumental for the function of non-excitable cells. In the recent years, expression and function of Orai1 have gained recognition in excitable cardiomyocytes, albeit controversial. Even if its cardiac physiological role in adult is still elusive and needs to be clarified, Orai1 contribution in cardiac diseases such as cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure (HF) is increasingly recognized. The present review surveys our current arising knowledge on the new role of Orai1 channels in the heart and debates on its participation to cardiac hypertrophy and HF.

Abstract
The effects of long‐term nitrate therapy are compromised due to protein S‐Nitrosylation, which is mediated by nitric oxide (NO). This study is to determine the role of Akt S‐Nitrosylation in the recovery of heart functions after ischaemia. In recombinant Akt protein and in HEK293 cells, NO donor decreased Akt activity and induced Akt S‐Nitrosylation, but was abolished if Akt protein was mutated by replacing cysteine 296/344 with alanine (Akt‐C296/344A). In endothelial cells, NO induced Akt S‐Nitrosylation, reduced Akt activity and damaged multiple cellular functions including proliferation, migration and tube formation. These alterations were ablated if cells expressed Akt‐C296/344A mutant. In Apoe−/− mice, nitroglycerine infusion increased both Akt S‐Nitrosylation and infarct size, reduced Akt activity and capillary density, and delayed the recovery of cardiac function in ischaemic hearts, compared with mice infused with vehicle. Importantly, these in vivo effects of nitroglycerine in Apoe−/− mice were remarkably prevented by adenovirus‐mediated enforced expression of Akt‐C296/344A mutant. In conclusion, long‐term usage of organic nitrate may inactivate Akt to delay ischaemia‐induced revascularization and the recovery of cardiac function through NO‐mediated S‐Nitrosylation.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and apoptosis serve an important role in the development of pressure overload-induced cardiac remodelling. Carnosic acid (CA) has been found to exert antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects. The present study investigated the underlying mechanism of CA protection and whether this effect was exerted against pressure overload-induced cardiac remodelling. Aortic banding (AB) surgery was performed to induce cardiac remodelling. Mice were randomly divided into four groups (n=15/group): i) Sham + vehicle; ii) sham + CA; iii) AB + vehicle; and iv) AB + CA. After 2 days of AB, 50 mg kg CA was administered orally for 12 days. Echocardiography, histological analysis and molecular biochemistry techniques were performed to evaluate the roles of CA. CA treatment decreased cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, oxidative stress and apoptosis in mice challenged with pressure overload. CA also decreased the cross-sectional area of cardiomyocytes and the mRNA and protein expression levels of hypertrophic markers. Furthermore, CA treatment decreased collagen deposition, α-smooth muscle actin expression and the mRNA and protein expression of various fibrotic markers. Additionally, CA reversed the AB-mediated increase in NAPDH oxidase (NOX) 2, NOX4 and 4-hydroxynonenal levels. The number of apoptotic cells was decreased following CA treatment following under conditions of pressure overload. CA also suppressed the activation of AKT and glycogen synthase kinase 3 β (GSK3β) in mice challenged with AB. The present results suggested that CA could inhibit pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis by suppressing the AKT/GSK3β/NOX4 signalling pathway. Therefore, CA may be a promising therapy for cardiac remodelling.

Abstract
AIMS Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used in patients receiving percutaneous coronary intervention to prevent gastric bleeding, but whether PPIs are beneficial for the heart is controversial. Here, we investigated the effects of lansoprazole on cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure, as well as the underlying mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS Adult male C57 mice were subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) or sham surgery and then were treated with lansoprazole or vehicle for 5 weeks. In addition, cultured neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes and fibroblasts were exposed to angiotensin II in the presence or absence of lansoprazole. At 5 weeks after TAC, the heart weight/body weight ratio was lower in lansoprazole-treated mice than in untreated mice, as was the lung weight/body weight ratio, while left ventricular (LV) fractional shortening and the maximum and minimum rates of change of the LV pressure were higher in lansoprazole-treated mice, along with less cardiac fibrosis. In cultured cardiomyocytes, lansoprazole inhibited angiotensin II-induced protein synthesis and hypertrophy, as well as inhibiting proliferation of fibroblasts. Lansoprazole decreased myocardial levels of phosphorylated Akt, phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase 3β, and active β-catenin in TAC mice and in angiotensin II-stimulated cardiomyocytes. After overexpression of active β-catenin or knockdown of H+/K+-ATPase α-subunit, lansoprazole still significantly attenuated myocyte hypertrophy. CONCLUSION Lansoprazole inhibits cardiac remodelling by suppressing activation of the Akt/GSK3β/β-catenin pathway independent of H+/K+-ATPase inhibition, and these findings may provide a novel insight into the pharmacological effects of PPIs with regard to alleviation of cardiac remodelling.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The cyclic AMP (adenosine monophosphate; cAMP)-hydrolyzing protein PDE4B (phosphodiesterase 4B) is a key negative regulator of cardiac β-adrenergic receptor stimulation. PDE4B deficiency leads to abnormal Ca2+ handling and PDE4B is decreased in pressure overload hypertrophy, suggesting that increasing PDE4B in the heart is beneficial in heart failure. METHODS We measured PDE4B expression in human cardiac tissues and developed 2 transgenic mouse lines with cardiomyocyte-specific overexpression of PDE4B and an adeno-associated virus serotype 9 encoding PDE4B. Myocardial structure and function were evaluated by echocardiography, ECG, and in Langendorff-perfused hearts. Also, cAMP and PKA (cAMP dependent protein kinase) activity were monitored by Förster resonance energy transfer, L-type Ca2+ current by whole-cell patch-clamp, and cardiomyocyte shortening and Ca2+ transients with an Ionoptix system. Heart failure was induced by 2 weeks infusion of isoproterenol or transverse aortic constriction. Cardiac remodeling was evaluated by serial echocardiography, morphometric analysis, and histology. RESULTS PDE4B protein was decreased in human failing hearts. The first PDE4B-transgenic mouse line (TG15) had a ≈15-fold increase in cardiac cAMP-PDE activity and a ≈30% decrease in cAMP content and fractional shortening associated with a mild cardiac hypertrophy that resorbed with age. Basal ex vivo myocardial function was unchanged, but β-adrenergic receptor stimulation of cardiac inotropy, cAMP, PKA, L-type Ca2+ current, Ca2+ transients, and cell contraction were blunted. Endurance capacity and life expectancy were normal. Moreover, these mice were protected from systolic dysfunction, hypertrophy, lung congestion, and fibrosis induced by chronic isoproterenol treatment. In the second PDE4B-transgenic mouse line (TG50), markedly higher PDE4B overexpression, resulting in a ≈50-fold increase in cardiac cAMP-PDE activity caused a ≈50% decrease in fractional shortening, hypertrophy, dilatation, and premature death. In contrast, mice injected with adeno-associated virus serotype 9 encoding PDE4B (1012 viral particles/mouse) had a ≈50% increase in cardiac cAMP-PDE activity, which did not modify basal cardiac function but efficiently prevented systolic dysfunction, apoptosis, and fibrosis, while attenuating hypertrophy induced by chronic isoproterenol infusion. Similarly, adeno-associated virus serotype 9 encoding PDE4B slowed contractile deterioration, attenuated hypertrophy and lung congestion, and prevented apoptosis and fibrotic remodeling in transverse aortic constriction. CONCLUSIONS Our results indicate that a moderate increase in PDE4B is cardioprotective and suggest that cardiac gene therapy with PDE4B might constitute a new promising approach to treat heart failure.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an intracellular organelle that performs multiple functions, such as lipid biosynthesis, protein folding, and maintaining intracellular calcium homeostasis. Thus, conditions wherein the ER is unable to fold proteins is defined as ER stress, and an inbuilt quality control mechanism, called the unfolded protein response (UPR), is activated during ER stress, which serves as a recovery system that inhibits protein synthesis. Further, based on the severity of ER stress, the response could involve both proapoptotic and antiapoptotic phases. Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the second most common subtype of cerebral stroke and many lines of evidence have suggested a role for the ER in major neurological disorders. The injury mechanism during ICH includes hematoma formation, which in turn leads to inflammation, elevated intracranial pressure, and edema. A proper understanding of the injury mechanism(s) is required to effectively treat ICH and closing the gap between our current understanding of ER stress mechanisms and ICH injury can lead to valuable advances in the clinical management of ICH.

Abstract
Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is an essential Ca2+ signaling mechanism present in most animal cells. SOCE refers to Ca2+ influx that is activated by depletion of sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (S/ER) Ca2+ stores. The main components of SOCE are STIM and Orai. STIM proteins function as S/ER Ca2+ sensors, and upon S/ER Ca2+ depletion STIM rearranges to S/ER-plasma membrane junctions and activates Orai Ca2+ influx channels. Studies have implicated SOCE in cardiac hypertrophy pathogenesis, but SOCE's role in normal heart physiology remains poorly understood. We therefore analyzed heart-specific SOCE function in Drosophila, a powerful animal model of cardiac physiology. We show that heart-specific suppression of Stim and Orai in larvae and adults resulted in reduced contractility consistent with dilated cardiomyopathy. Myofibers were also highly disorganized in Stim and Orai RNAi hearts, reflecting possible decompensation or upregulated stress signaling. Furthermore, we show that reduced heart function due to SOCE suppression adversely affected animal viability, as heart specific Stim and Orai RNAi animals exhibited significant delays in post-embryonic development and adults died earlier than controls. Collectively, our results demonstrate that SOCE is essential for physiological heart function, and establish Drosophila as an important model for understanding the role of SOCE in cardiac pathophysiology.

Abstract
The heart flexibly changes its structure in response to changing environments and oxygen/nutrition demands of the body. Increased and decreased mechanical loading induces hypertrophy and atrophy of cardiomyocytes, respectively. In physiological conditions, these structural changes of the heart are reversible. However, chronic stresses such as hypertension or cancer cachexia cause irreversible remodeling of the heart, leading to heart failure. Accumulating evidence indicates that calcium dyshomeostasis and aberrant reactive oxygen species production cause pathological heart remodeling. Canonical transient receptor potential (TRPC) is a nonselective cation channel subfamily whose multimodal activation or modulation of channel activity play important roles in a plethora of cellular physiology. Roles of TRPC channels in cardiac physiology have been reported in pathological cardiac remodeling. In this review, we summarize recent findings regarding the importance of TRPC channels in flexible cardiac remodeling (i.e., cardiac plasticity) in response to environmental stresses and discuss questions that should be addressed in the near future.

Abstract
The adult human heart has an exceptional ability to alter its phenotype to adapt to changes in environmental demand. This response involves metabolic, mechanical, electrical, and structural alterations, and is known as cardiac plasticity. Understanding the drivers of cardiac plasticity is essential for development of therapeutic agents. This is particularly important in contemporary cardiology, which uses treatments with peripheral effects (e.g., on kidneys, adrenal glands). This review focuses on the effects of different hemodynamic loads on myocardial phenotype. We examine mechanical scenarios of pressure- and volume overload, from the initial insult, to compensated, and ultimately decompensated stage. We discuss how different hemodynamic conditions occur and are underlined by distinct phenotypic and molecular changes. We complete the review by exploring how current basic cardiac research should leverage available cardiac models to study mechanical load in its different presentations.

Abstract
The cardiovascular system can sense and adapt to changes in mechanical stimuli by remodeling the physical properties of the heart and blood vessels in order to maintain homeostasis. Imbalances in mechanical forces and/or impaired sensing are now not only implicated but are, in some cases, considered to be drivers for the development and progression of cardiovascular disease. There is now growing evidence to highlight the role of mechanical forces in the regulation of protein translation pathways. The canonical mechanism of protein synthesis typically involves transcription and translation. Protein translation occurs globally throughout the cell to maintain general function but localized protein synthesis allows for precise spatiotemporal control of protein translation. This Review will cover studies on the role of biomechanical stress -induced translational control in the heart (often in the context of physiological and pathological hypertrophy). We will also discuss the much less studied effects of mechanical forces in regulating protein translation in the vasculature. Understanding how the mechanical environment influences protein translational mechanisms in the cardiovascular system, will help to inform disease pathogenesis and potential areas of therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Orai1 is a critical ion channel subunit, best recognized as a mediator of store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) in nonexcitable cells. SOCE has recently emerged as a key contributor of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure but the relevance of Orai1 is still unclear. METHODS To test the role of these Orai1 channels in the cardiac pathophysiology, a transgenic mouse was generated with cardiomyocyte-specific expression of an ion pore-disruptive Orai1R91W mutant (C-dnO1). Synthetic chemistry and channel screening strategies were used to develop 4-(2,5-dimethoxyphenyl)-N-[(pyridin-4-yl)methyl]aniline (hereafter referred to as JPIII), a small-molecule Orai1 channel inhibitor suitable for in vivo delivery. RESULTS Adult mice subjected to transverse aortic constriction (TAC) developed cardiac hypertrophy and reduced ventricular function associated with increased Orai1 expression and Orai1-dependent SOCE (assessed by Mn2+ influx). C-dnO1 mice displayed normal cardiac electromechanical function and cellular excitation-contraction coupling despite reduced Orai1-dependent SOCE. Five weeks after TAC, C-dnO1 mice were protected from systolic dysfunction (assessed by preserved left ventricular fractional shortening and ejection fraction) even if increased cardiac mass and prohypertrophic markers induction were observed. This is correlated with a protection from TAC-induced cellular Ca2+ signaling alterations (increased SOCE, decreased [Ca2+]i transients amplitude and decay rate, lower SR Ca2+ load and depressed cellular contractility) and SERCA2a downregulation in ventricular cardiomyocytes from C-dnO1 mice, associated with blunted Pyk2 signaling. There was also less fibrosis in heart sections from C-dnO1 mice after TAC. Moreover, 3 weeks treatment with JPIII following 5 weeks of TAC confirmed the translational relevance of an Orai1 inhibition strategy during hypertrophic insult. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest a key role of cardiac Orai1 channels and the potential for Orai1 channel inhibitors as inotropic therapies for maintaining contractility reserve after hypertrophic stress.

Abstract
Store-Operated Ca2+ Entry (SOCE) is an important Ca2+ influx pathway expressed by several excitable and non-excitable cell types. SOCE is recognized as relevant signaling pathway not only for physiological process, but also for its involvement in different pathologies. In fact, independent studies demonstrated the implication of essential protein regulating SOCE, such as STIM, Orai and TRPCs, in different pathogenesis and cell disorders, including cardiovascular disease, muscular dystrophies and angiogenesis. Compelling evidence showed that dysregulation in the function and/or expression of isoforms of STIM, Orai or TRPC play pivotal roles in cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure, vascular remodeling and hypertension, skeletal myopathies, and angiogenesis. In this chapter, we summarized the current knowledge concerning the mechanisms underlying abnormal SOCE and its involvement in some diseases, as well as, we discussed the significance of STIM, Orai and TRPC isoforms as possible therapeutic targets for the treatment of angiogenesis, cardiovascular and skeletal muscle diseases.

Abstract
17β-Estradiol (E2) is the main estrogenic hormone in the body and exerts many cardiovascular protective effects. Via three receptors known to date, including estrogen receptors α (ERα) and β (ERβ) and the G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER, aka GPR30), E2 regulates numerous calcium-dependent activities in cardiovascular tissues. Nevertheless, effects of E2 and its receptors on components of the calcium signaling machinery (CSM), the underlying mechanisms, and the linked functional impact are only beginning to be elucidated. A picture is emerging of the reciprocality between estrogen biology and Ca2+ signaling. Therein, E2 and GPER, via both E2-dependent and E2-independent actions, moderate Ca2+-dependent activities; in turn, ERα and GPER are regulated by Ca2+ at the receptor level and downstream signaling via a feedforward loop. This article reviews current understanding of the effects of E2 and its receptors on the cardiovascular CSM and vice versa with a focus on mechanisms and combined functional impact. An overview of the main CSM components in cardiovascular tissues will be first provided, followed by a brief review of estrogen receptors and their Ca2+-dependent regulation. The effects of estrogenic agonists to stimulate acute Ca2+ signals will then be reviewed. Subsequently, E2-dependent and E2-independent effects of GPER on components of the Ca2+ signals triggered by other stimuli will be discussed. Finally, a case study will illustrate how the many mechanisms are coordinated to moderate Ca2+-dependent activities in the cardiovascular system.

Abstract
Whereas cardiac TRPC (transient receptor potential canonical) channels and the associated store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) are abnormally elevated during cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure, the mechanism of this upregulation is not fully elucidated but might be related to the activation of the mineralocorticoid pathway. Using a combination of biochemical, Ca2+ imaging, and electrophysiological techniques, we determined the effect of 24-h aldosterone treatment on the TRPCs/Orai-dependent SOCE in adult rat ventricular cardiomyocytes (ARVMs). The 24-h aldosterone treatment (from 100 nM to 1 µM) enhanced depletion-induced Ca2+ entry in ARVMs, as assessed by a faster reduction of Fura-2 fluorescence decay upon the addition of Mn2+ and increased Fluo-4/AM fluorescence following Ca2+ store depletion. These effects were prevented by co-treatment with a specific mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonist, RU-28318, and they are associated with the enhanced depletion-induced N-[4-[3,5-Bis(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]phenyl]-4-methyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole-5-carboxamide (BTP2)-sensitive macroscopic current recorded by patch-clamp experiments. Molecular screening by qRT-PCR and Western blot showed a specific upregulation of TRPC1, TRPC5, and STIM1 expression at the messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein levels upon 24-h aldosterone treatment of ARVMs, corroborated by immunostaining. Our study provides evidence that the mineralocorticoid pathway specifically promotes TRPC1/TRPC5-mediated SOCE in adult rat cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND STIM1 (stromal interaction molecule 1) is a calcium (Ca2+) sensor that regulates cardiac hypertrophy by triggering store-operated Ca2+ entry. Because STIM1 binding to phospholamban increases sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ load independent of store-operated Ca2+ entry, we hypothesized that it controls electrophysiological function and arrhythmias in the adult heart. METHODS Inducible myocyte-restricted STIM1-KD (STIM1 knockdown) was achieved in adult mice using an αMHC (α-myosin heavy chain)-MerCreMer system. Mechanical and electrophysiological properties were examined using echocardiography in vivo and optical action potential (AP) mapping ex vivo in tamoxifen-induced STIM1flox/flox-Cretg/- (STIM1-KD) and littermate controls for STIM1flox/flox (referred to as STIM1-Ctl) and for Cretg/- without STIM deletion (referred to as Cre-Ctl). RESULTS STIM1-KD mice (N=23) exhibited poor survival compared with STIM1-Ctl (N=22) and Cre-Ctl (N=11) with >50% mortality after only 8-days of cardiomyocyte-restricted STIM1-KD. STIM1-KD but not STIM1-Ctl or Cre-Ctl hearts exhibited a proclivity for arrhythmic behavior, ranging from frequent ectopy to pacing-induced ventricular tachycardia/ventricular fibrillation (VT/VF). Examination of the electrophysiological substrate revealed decreased conduction velocity and increased AP duration (APD) heterogeneity in STIM1-KD. These features, however, were comparable in VT/VF(+) and VT/VF(-) hearts. We also uncovered a marked increase in the magnitude of APD alternans during rapid pacing, and the emergence of a spatially discordant alternans profile in STIM1-KD hearts. Unlike conduction velocity slowing and APD heterogeneity, the magnitude of APD alternans was greater (by 80%, P<0.05) in VT/VF(+) versus VT/VF(-) STIM1-KD hearts. Detailed phase mapping during the initial beats of VT/VF identified one or more rotors that were localized along the nodal line separating out-of-phase alternans regions. CONCLUSIONS In an adult murine model with inducible and myocyte-specific STIM1 depletion, we demonstrate for the first time the regulation of spatially discordant alternans by STIM1. Early mortality in STIM1-KD mice is likely related to enhanced susceptibility to VT/VF secondary to discordant APD alternans.

Abstract
Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) was closely involved in doxorubicin- (DOX-) induced cardiotoxicity. MicroRNA-200a (miR-200a) could target Keap1 mRNA and promote degradation of Keap1 mRNA, resulting in Nrf2 activation. However, the role of miR-200a in DOX-related cardiotoxicity remained unclear. Our study is aimed at investigating the effect of miR-200a on DOX-induced cardiotoxicity in mice. For cardiotropic expression, male mice received an injection of an adeno-associated virus 9 (AAV9) system carrying miR-200a or miR-scramble. Four weeks later, mice received a single intraperitoneal injection of DOX at 15 mg/kg. In our study, we found that miR-200a mRNA was the only microRNA that was significantly decreased in DOX-treated mice and H9c2 cells. miR-200a supplementation blocked whole-body wasting and heart atrophy caused by acute DOX injection, decreased the levels of cardiac troponin I and the N-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide, and improved cardiac and adult cardiomyocyte contractile function. Moreover, miR-200a reduced oxidative stress and cardiac apoptosis without affecting matrix metalloproteinase and inflammatory factors in mice with acute DOX injection. miR-200a also attenuated DOX-induced oxidative injury and cell loss in vitro. As expected, we found that miR-200a activated Nrf2 and Nrf2 deficiency abolished the protection provided by miR-200a supplementation in mice. miR-200a also provided cardiac benefits in a chronic model of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. In conclusion, miR-200a protected against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity via activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway. Our data suggest that miR-200a may represent a new cardioprotective strategy against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.

Abstract
The mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin) is a master regulator of several crucial cellular processes, including protein synthesis, cellular growth, proliferation, autophagy, lysosomal function, and cell metabolism. mTOR interacts with specific adaptor proteins to form 2 multiprotein complexes, called mTORC1 (mTOR complex 1) and mTORC2 (mTOR complex 2). In the cardiovascular system, the mTOR pathway regulates both physiological and pathological processes in the heart. It is needed for embryonic cardiovascular development and for maintaining cardiac homeostasis in postnatal life. Studies involving mTOR loss-of-function models revealed that mTORC1 activation is indispensable for the development of adaptive cardiac hypertrophy in response to mechanical overload. mTORC2 is also required for normal cardiac physiology and ensures cardiomyocyte survival in response to pressure overload. However, partial genetic or pharmacological inhibition of mTORC1 reduces cardiac remodeling and heart failure in response to pressure overload and chronic myocardial infarction. In addition, mTORC1 blockade reduces cardiac derangements induced by genetic and metabolic disorders and has been reported to extend life span in mice. These studies suggest that pharmacological targeting of mTOR may represent a therapeutic strategy to confer cardioprotection, although clinical evidence in support of this notion is still scarce. This review summarizes and discusses the new evidence on the pathophysiological role of mTOR signaling in the cardiovascular system.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the potential role and mechanism of TUPS, a soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitor, in cardiac hypertrophy. METHODS Rat and H9C2 cell models of cardiac hypertrophy were induced by isoproterenol and angiotensin II, respectively, followed by TUPS treatment. The expression of hypertrophic markers, ANP and BNP, was determined by quantitative real-time PCR. The abundance of Beclin-1, LC3, p-AMPK and phosphorylated-mammalian target of rapamycin (p-mTOR) proteins was analysed by Western blot and immunohistocytology. Cell morphology and viability were evaluated by F-actin staining and MTS. H9C2 cells were transfected with GFP-LC3 to evaluate autophagy flux. KEY FINDINGS TUPS significantly inhibited rat heart size, heart weight-to-body weight ratio, heart wall thickness, hypertrophic H9C2 cell swelling and viability suppression as well as the expression of ANP and BNP genes in hypertrophic models. In addition, autophagic markers Beclin-1 and LC3 were elevated in both cellular and animal models, which were suppressed by TUPS, with corresponding changes of autophagy flux. The abundance of p-AMPK was increased, while p-mTOR was decreased in hypertrophic cells, which were abolished by TUPS. Rapamycin decreased p-mTOR level, increased Beclin-1 and LC3 expression and induced cell size enlargement and cell viability inhibition in hypertrophic H9C2 cells treated with TUPS. CONCLUSIONS TUPS inhibits cardiac hypertrophy by regulating mTOR/autophagy axis.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy is a compensatory response in reaction to mechanical load that reduces wall stress by increasing wall thickness. Chronic hypertrophic remodeling involves cardiac dysfunction that will lead to heart failure and ultimately death. Studies have been carried out on cardiac hypertrophy for years, whereas the mechanisms have not been well defined. Tamarixetin (TAM), a natural flavonoid derivative of quercetin, have been demonstrated possessing anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects on multiple diseases. However, little is known about the function of TAM on the development of cardiac hypertrophy. Here, we found TAM could alleviate pressure-overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy in transverse aortic constriction (TAC) mouse model, assessed by ventricular weight/body weight, lung weight/body weight, echocardiographic parameters, as well as myocyte cross-sectional area and the expression of ANP, BNP and Myh7. In vitro, TAM showed a dose dependent inhibitory effect on phenylephrine-induced hypertrophy in H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Furthermore, TAM reversed cardiac remodeling of stress overloaded heart by suppressing apoptosis and the expression of fibrotic-related genes, reduced oxidative stress and ROS production both in vivo and in vitro. In addition, TAM could negatively modulate TAC-induced nuclear translocation of NFAT and the activation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathways. Therefore, these data indicate for the first time that TAM has a protective effect on experimental cardiac hypertrophy and might be a novel candidate for the treatment of cardiac hypertrophy in clinic.

Abstract
Early adaptive cardiac hypertrophy (EACH) is initially a compensatory process to optimize pump function. We reported the emergence of Orai3 activity during EACH. This study aimed to characterize how inflammation regulates store-independent activation of Orai3-calcium influx and to evaluate the functional role of this influx. Isoproterenol infusion or abdominal aortic banding triggered EACH. TNFα or conditioned medium from cardiac CD11b/c cells activated either in vivo [isolated from rats displaying EACH], or in vitro [isolated from normal rats and activated with lipopolysaccharide], were added to adult cardiomyocytes before measuring calcium entry, cell hypertrophy and cell injury. Using intramyocardial injection of siRNA, Orai3 was in vivo knockdown during EACH to evaluate its protective activity in heart failure. Inflammatory CD11b/c cells trigger a store-independent calcium influx in hypertrophied cardiomyocytes, that is mimicked by TNFα. Pharmacological or molecular (siRNA) approaches demonstrate that this calcium influx, depends on TNFR2, is Orai3-driven, and elicits cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and resistance to oxidative stress. Neutralization of Orai3 inhibits protective GSK3β phosphorylation, impairs EACH and accelerates heart failure. Orai3 exerts a pathophysiological protective impact in EACH promoting hypertrophy and resistance to oxidative stress. We highlight inflammation arising from CD11b/c cells as a potential trigger of TNFR2- and Orai3-dependent signaling pathways.

BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2019; 1866:1249-1259. [PMID: 30951783 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2019.03.017] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2018] [Revised: 03/22/2019] [Accepted: 03/28/2019] [Indexed: 01/29/2023]
Abstract
Intact store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) mechanisms ensure the maintenance of Ca2+ homeostasis in cardiomyocytes while their dysregulation promotes the development of cardiomyopathies. To better understand this calcium handling process in cardiomyocytes, we sought to identify unknown protein partners of stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1), a main regulatory protein of SOCE. We identified the muscle-related coiled-coil protein (MURC), also known as Cavin-4, as a candidate and showed that MURC interacts with STIM1 in cardiomyocytes. This interaction occurs via the HR1 and ERM domains of MURC and STIM1, respectively. Our results also demonstrated that the overexpression of MURC in neonatal rat ventricular myocytes (NRVM) is sufficient to potentiate SOCE and that its HR1 domain is required to mediate this effect. Interestingly, the R140W-MURC mutant, a missense variant of the HR1 domain associated with human dilated cardiomyopathy, exacerbates the SOCE increase in NRVM. Although the endogenous expression of STIM1 and Ca2+ channel Orai1 is not modulated under these conditions, we showed that MURC increases the interaction between these proteins under resting conditions. Our study provides novel evidence that MURC regulates SOCE by interacting with STIM1 in cardiomyocytes. In addition, we identified a first potential mechanism by which the R140W mutation of MURC may contribute to calcium mishandling and the development of cardiomyopathies.
