Abstract
The cellular secretome is pivotal in mediating intercellular communication and coordinating responses to stressors. Exosomes, initially recognized for their role in waste disposal, have now emerged as key intercellular messengers with significant therapeutic and diagnostic potential. Similarly, autophagy has transcended its traditional role as a waste removal mechanism, emerging as a regulator of intracellular communication pathways and a contributor to a unique autophagy-dependent secretome. Secretory authophagy, initiated by various stress stimuli, prompts the selective release of proteins implicated in inflammation, including leaderless proteins that bypass the conventional endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi secretory pathway. This reflects the significant impact of stress-induced autophagy on cellular secretion profiles, including the modulation of exosome release. The convergence of exosome biogenesis and autophagy is exemplified by the formation of amphisomes, vesicles that integrate autophagic and endosomal pathways, indicating their synergistic interplay. Regulatory proteins common to both pathways, particularly mTORC1, emerge as potential therapeutic targets to alter cellular secretion profiles involved in various diseases. This review explores the dynamic interplay between autophagy and exosome formation, highlighting the potential to influence the secretome composition. While the modulation of exosome secretion and cytokine preconditioning is well-established in regenerative medicine, the strategic manipulation of autophagy is still underexplored, presenting a promising but uncharted therapeutic landscape.

Abstract
Cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) occupies the outer membrane of human cells, where it binds to soluble and cell surface receptors on the same and other cells, sculpting their topography and resulting in a pleiotropic receptor-multiligand interaction network. It is a focus of drug development to temper and accentuate CD47-driven immune cell liaisons, although consideration of on-target CD47 effects remain neglected. And yet, a late clinical trial of a CD47-blocking antibody was discontinued, existent trials were restrained, and development of CD47-targeting agents halted by some pharmaceutical companies. At this point, if CD47 can be exploited for clinical advantage remains to be determined. Herein an airing is made of the seemingly conflicting actions of CD47 that reflect its position as a junction connecting receptors and signalling pathways that impact numerous human cell types. Prospects of CD47 boosting and blocking are considered along with potential therapeutic implications for autoimmune diseases and cancer.

Abstract
HDAC3 is a specific and crucial member of the HDAC family. It is required for embryonic growth, development, and physiological function. The regulation of oxidative stress is an important factor in intracellular homeostasis and signal transduction. Currently, HDAC3 has been found to regulate several oxidative stress-related processes and molecules dependent on its deacetylase and non-enzymatic activities. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the knowledge of the relationship of HDAC3 with mitochondria function and metabolism, ROS-produced enzymes, antioxidant enzymes, and oxidative stress-associated transcription factors. We also discuss the role of HDAC3 and its inhibitors in some chronic cardiovascular, kidney, and neurodegenerative diseases. Due to the simultaneous existence of enzyme activity and non-enzyme activity, HDAC3 and the development of its selective inhibitors still need further exploration in the future.

Abstract
Endothelial cells (ECs) serve as a barrier with forming a monolayer lining in the surface of vascular system. Many mature cell types are post-mitotic like neurons, but ECs have the ability to grow during angiogenesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) stimulates growth of vascular ECs derived from arteries, veins, and lymphatics and induces angiogenesis. Senescence of ECs is regarded as a key contributor in aging-induced vascular dysfunction via evoking increase of ECs permeability, impairment of angiogenesis and vascular repair. Several genomics and proteomics studies on ECs senescence reported changes in gene and protein expression that directly correlate with vascular systemic disorder. CD47 functions as a signaling receptor for secreted matricellular protein thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) and plays an important role in several fundamental cellular functions, including proliferation, apoptosis, inflammation, and atherosclerotic response. TSP1-CD47 signaling is upregulated with age in ECs, concurrent with suppression of key self-renewal genes. Recent studies indicate that CD47 is involved in regulation of senescence, self-renewal and inflammation. In this review, we highlight the functions of CD47 in senescent ECs, including modulation of cell cycle, mediation of inflammation and metabolism by the experimental studies, which may provide CD47 as a potential therapeutic target for aging-associated vascular dysfunction.

Abstract
The cardiotoxicity of trastuzumab (TRZ) seriously affects the prognosis of breast cancer patients, but the underlying mechanisms remains to be elucidated. This study aimed to investigate the potential molecular mechanisms of TRZ-induced cardiotoxicity based on RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) and bioinformatics analysis. Kunming mice were exposed to 10 mg/kg TRZ for 6 and 10 days, followed by echocardiography, histopathology and serum biochemical analysis to evaluate the cardiotoxicity model. The results showed no significant changes after 6 days administration of TRZ. After 10 days administration of TRZ, the mice showed cardiac dysfunction, myocardial injury and fibrosis, and the serum levels of LDH, CK, CK-MB and cTnI were increased compared to the control [CON (Day 10)] group, indicating the cardiotoxicity model was successfully established. We compared gene expression levels in mice cardiac tissues by RNA-Seq and screened out 593 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Results based on Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis and RT-PCR revealed that the CD74/STAT1 signaling pathway might play an important role in TRZ-induced cardiotoxicity. In the TRZ group, the protein expressions of CD74, p-STAT1 (Tyr) and p-STAT1 (Ser) were increased. The TUNEL staining showed increased apoptosis of cardiomyocytes. In addition, an increased expressions of Bax, Caspase-3, IFN-γ and TNF-α and a decreased expression of Bcl-2 were observed in Western blot results, indicating the apoptosis and inflammation levels were increased. These findings suggested that TRZ may induce cardiotoxicity in mice by activating the CD74/STAT1 signaling pathway, which might be related to the induction of apoptosis and inflammation.

Reversal of Right Ventricular Hypertrophy and Dysfunction by Prostacyclin in a Rat Model of Severe Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23105426.

Abstract
Prostacyclin analogs are among the most effective and widely used therapies for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). However, it is unknown whether they also confer protection through right ventricle (RV) myocardio-specific mechanisms. Moreover, the use of prostacyclin analogs in severe models of PAH has not been adequately tested. To further identify underlying responses to prostacyclin, a prostacyclin analogue, treprostinil, was used in a preclinical rat Sugen-chronic hypoxia (SuCH) model of severe PAH that closely resembles the human disease. Male Sprague–Dawley rats were implanted with osmotic pumps containing vehicle or treprostinil, injected concurrently with a bolus of Sugen (SU5416) and exposed to 3-week hypoxia followed by 3-week normoxia. RV function was assessed using pressure–volume loops and hypertrophy by weight assessed. To identify altered mechanisms within the RV, tissue samples were used to perform a custom RNA array analysis, histological staining, and protein and transcript level confirmatory analyses. Treprostinil significantly reduced SuCH-associated RV hypertrophy and decreased the rise in RV systolic pressure, mean pulmonary arterial (mPAP), and right atrial (RAP) pressure. Prostacyclin treatment was associated with improvements in RV stroke work, maximum rate of ventricular pressure change (max dP/dt) and the contractile index, and almost a complete reversal of SuCH-associated increase in RV end-systolic elastance, suggesting the involvement of load-independent improvements in intrinsic RV systolic contractility by prostacyclin treatment. An analysis of the RV tissues showed no changes in cardiac mitochondrial respiration and ATP generation. However, custom RNA array analysis revealed amelioration of SuCH-associated increases in newly identified TBX20 as well as the fibrotic markers collagen1α1 and collagen 3α1 upon treprostinil treatment. Taken together, our data support decreased afterload and load-independent improvements in RV function following prostacyclin administration in severe PAH, and these changes appear to associate with improvements in RV fibrotic responses.

Abstract
Cardiac hypertrophy is a condition that may contribute to the development of heart failure. In this study, we compare the gene-expression patterns of our in vitro stem-cell-based cardiac hypertrophy model with the gene expression of biopsies collected from hypertrophic human hearts. Twenty-five differentially expressed genes (DEGs) from both groups were identified and the expression of selected corresponding secreted proteins were validated using ELISA and Western blot. Several biomarkers, including CCN2, THBS1, NPPA, and NPPB, were identified, which showed significant overexpressions in the hypertrophic samples in both the cardiac biopsies and in the endothelin-1-treated cells, both at gene and protein levels. The protein-interaction network analysis revealed CCN2 as a central node among the 25 overlapping DEGs, suggesting that this gene might play an important role in the development of cardiac hypertrophy. GO-enrichment analysis of the 25 DEGs revealed many biological processes associated with cardiac function and the development of cardiac hypertrophy. In conclusion, we identified important similarities between ET-1-stimulated human-stem-cell-derived cardiomyocytes and human hypertrophic cardiac tissue. Novel putative cardiac hypertrophy biomarkers were identified and validated on the protein level, lending support for further investigations to assess their potential for future clinical applications.

Abstract
Cluster of differentiation 47 (CD47) is upregulated in mouse models of doxorubicin (Dox)-induced dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). To explore the role of CD47 in the development of DCM, in the present study, CD47 signaling was blocked by an anti-CD47 neutralizing antibody (aCD47) in mice with Dox-induced DCM. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of 10 mg/kg Dox once a week significantly induced the development of DCM after 4 weeks, which was accompanied by the upregulation of CD47 expression in heart tissues. However, co-administration of Dox with 7 mg/kg aCD47 once a week significantly reduced the severity of DCM, with lower numbers of disordered and broken myofibers, reduced cardiomyocytes and infiltration of macrophages in the heart tissues of treated mice. The beneficial effects were associated with the reduced population of Annexin V+7-AAD- apoptotic cells, and the attenuated formation of interstitial fibrosis and release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the aCD47-treated mice. In addition, co-administration with aCD47 effectively reduced the expression of Bax, collagen I, interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in murine DCM. These results were further supported by an in vitro study, in which aCD47 pre-treatment significantly reduced the Dox-induced early apoptosis of cardiomyocytes and suppressed the expression of Bax, cleaved caspase-1/3 and phosphorylation of p38 MAPK. Therefore, aCD47 attenuated DCM in mice, possibly by suppressing cardiomyocyte early apoptosis and p38 MAPK signaling. CD47 may be a useful therapeutic target in the treatment of DCM.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and apoptosis are the key factors that limit the hypothermic preservation time of donor hearts to within 4-6 h. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) inhibitor RGFP966 could protect against cardiac injury induced by prolonged hypothermic preservation. Rat hearts were hypothermically preserved in Celsior solution with or without RGFP966 for 12 h followed by 60 min of reperfusion. Hemodynamic parameters during reperfusion were evaluated. The expression and phosphorylation levels of mammalian STE20-like kinase-1 (Mst1) and Yes-associated protein (YAP) were determined by western blotting. Cell apoptosis was measured by the terminal deoxynucleotidyl-transferase (TdT)-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) method. Addition of RGFP966 in Celsior solution significantly inhibited cardiac dysfunction induced by hypothermic preservation. RGFP966 inhibited the hypothermic preservation-induced increase of the phosphorylated (p)-Mst1/Mst1 and p-YAP/YAP ratios, prevented a reduction in total YAP protein expression, and increased the nuclear YAP protein level. Verteporfin (VP), a small molecular inhibitor of YAP-transcriptional enhanced associate domain (TEAD) interaction, partially abolished the protective effect of RGFP966 on cardiac function, and reduced lactate dehydrogenase activity and malondialdehyde content. RGFP966 increased superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase gene and protein expression, which was abolished by VP. RGFP966 inhibited hypothermic preservation-induced overexpression of B-cell lymphoma protein 2 (Bcl-2)-associated X (Bax) and cleaved caspase-3, increased Bcl-2 mRNA and protein expression, and reduced cardiomyocyte apoptosis. The antioxidant and anti-apoptotic effects of RGFP966 were cancelled by VP. The results suggest that supplementation of Celsior solution with RGFP966 attenuated prolonged hypothermic preservation-induced cardiac dysfunction. The mechanism may involve inhibition of oxidative stress and apoptosis via inactivation of the YAP pathway.

Abstract
Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) plays a crucial role in chromatin remodeling, which, in turn, regulates gene transcription. Hence, HDAC3 has been implicated in various diseases, including ischemic injury, fibrosis, neurodegeneration, infections, and inflammatory conditions. In addition, HDAC3 plays vital roles under physiological conditions by regulating circadian rhythms, metabolism, and development. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge of the physiological functions of HDAC3 and its role in organ injury. We also discuss the therapeutic value of HDAC3 in various diseases.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the GSK-3β/NF-κB pathway on integrin-associated protein (CD47) expression after myocardial infarction (MI) in rats. An MI Sprague Dawley rat model was established by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery. The rats were divided into three groups: Sham, MI, and SB + MI (SB216763) groups. Immunohistochemistry was used to observe the changes in cardiac morphology. A significant reduction in the sizes of fibrotic scars was observed in the SB + MI group compared to that in the MI group. SB216763 decreased the mRNA and protein expression of CD47 and NF-κB during MI. Primary rat cardiomyocytes (RCMs) and the H9c2 cell line were used to establish in vitro hypoxia models. Quantitative real-time PCR and western blotting analyses were conducted to detect mRNA and protein expression levels of CD47 and NF-κB and apoptosis-related proteins, respectively. Apoptosis of hypoxic cells was assessed using flow cytometry. SB216763 reduced the protein expression of CD47 and NF-κB in RCMs and H9c2 cells under hypoxic conditions for 12 h, and alleviated hypoxia-induced apoptosis. SN50 (an NF-κB inhibitor) also decreased CD47 protein expression in RCMs and H9c2 cells under hypoxic conditions for 12 h and protected cells from apoptosis. GSK-3β upregulates CD47 expression in cardiac tissues after MI by activating NF-κB, which in turn leads to myocardial cell damage and apoptosis.

Abstract
The acetylation of histone and non-histone proteins has been implicated in several disease states. Modulation of such epigenetic modifications has therefore made histone deacetylases (HDACs) important drug targets. HDAC3, among various class I HDACs, has been signified as a potentially validated target in multiple diseases, namely, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disorders, autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, parasitic infections, and HIV. However, only a handful of HDAC3-selective inhibitors have been reported in spite of continuous efforts in design and development of HDAC3-selective inhibitors. In this Perspective, the roles of HDAC3 in various diseases as well as numerous potent and HDAC3-selective inhibitors have been discussed in detail. It will surely open up a new vista in the discovery of newer, more effective, and more selective HDAC3 inhibitors.

Abstract
Thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) is the prototypical member of a family of secreted proteins that modulate cell behavior by engaging with molecules in the extracellular matrix and with receptors on the cell surface. CD47 is widely displayed on many, if not all, cell types and is a high-affinity TSP1 receptor. CD47 is a marker of self that limits innate immune cell activities, a feature recently exploited to enhance cancer immunotherapy. Another major role for CD47 in health and disease is to mediate TSP1 signaling. TSP1 acting through CD47 contributes to mitochondrial, metabolic, and endocrine dysfunction. Studies in animal models found that elevated TSP1 expression, acting in part through CD47, causes mitochondrial and metabolic dysfunction. Clinical studies established that abnormal TSP1 expression positively correlates with obesity, fatty liver disease, and diabetes. The unabated increase in these conditions worldwide and the availability of CD47 targeting drugs justify a closer look into how TSP1 and CD47 disrupt metabolic balance and the potential for therapeutic intervention.

Yes-Associated Protein (Yap) Is Up-Regulated in Heart Failure and Promotes Cardiac Fibroblast Proliferation. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22116164. [PMID: 34200497 PMCID: PMC8201133 DOI: 10.3390/ijms22116164] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2021] [Revised: 05/04/2021] [Accepted: 05/11/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Left ventricular (LV) heart failure (HF) is a significant and increasing cause of death worldwide. HF is characterized by myocardial remodeling and excessive fibrosis. Transcriptional co-activator Yes-associated protein (Yap), the downstream effector of HIPPO signaling pathway, is an essential factor in cardiomyocyte survival; however, its status in human LV HF is not entirely elucidated. Here, we report that Yap is elevated in LV tissue of patients with HF, and is associated with down-regulation of its upstream inhibitor HIPPO component large tumor suppressor 1 (LATS1) activation as well as upregulation of the fibrosis marker connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). Applying the established profibrotic combined stress of TGFβ and hypoxia to human ventricular cardiac fibroblasts in vitro increased Yap protein levels, down-regulated LATS1 activation, increased cell proliferation and collagen I production, and decreased ribosomal protein S6 and S6 kinase phosphorylation, a hallmark of mTOR activation, without any significant effect on mTOR and raptor protein expression or phosphorylation of mTOR or 4E-binding protein 1 (4EBP1), a downstream effector of mTOR pathway. As previously reported in various cell types, TGFβ/hypoxia also enhanced cardiac fibroblast Akt and ERK1/2 phosphorylation, which was similar to our observation in LV tissues from HF patients. Further, depletion of Yap reduced TGFβ/hypoxia-induced cardiac fibroblast proliferation and Akt phosphorylation at Ser 473 and Thr308, without any significant effect on TGFβ/hypoxia-induced ERK1/2 activation or reduction in S6 and S6 kinase activities. Taken together, these data demonstrate that Yap is a mediator that promotes human cardiac fibroblast proliferation and suggest its possible contribution to remodeling of the LV, opening the door to further studies to decipher the cell-specific roles of Yap signaling in human HF.

Novel Pharmaceutical Strategy for Selective Abrogation of TSP1-Induced Vascular Dysfunction by Decoy Recombinant CD47 Soluble Receptor in Prophylaxis and Treatment Models. Biomedicines 2021; 9:biomedicines9060642. [PMID: 34205047 PMCID: PMC8228143 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines9060642] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2021] [Revised: 05/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/31/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Elevated thrombospondin 1 (TSP1) is a prevalent factor, via cognate receptor CD47, in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular conditions, including ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Moreover, TSP1/CD47 interaction has been found to be associated with platelet hyperaggregability and impaired nitric oxide response, exacerbating progression in IRI and PAH. Pathological TSP1 in circulation arises as a target of our novel therapeutic approach. Our “proof-of-concept” pharmacological strategy relies on recombinant human CD47 peptide (rh-CD47p) as a decoy receptor protein (DRP) to specifically bind TSP1 and neutralize TSP1-impaired vasorelaxation, strongly implicated in IRI and PAH. The binding of rh-CD47p and TSP1 was first verified as the primary mechanism via Western blotting and further quantified with modified ELISA, which also revealed a linear molar dose-dependent interaction. Ex vivo, pretreatment protocol with rh-CD47p (rh-CD47p added prior to TSP1 incubation) demonstrated a prophylactic effect against TSP1-impairment of endothelium-dependent vasodilation. Post-treatment set-up (TSP1 incubation prior to rh-CD47p addition), mimicking pre-existing excessive TSP1 in PAH, reversed TSP1-inhibited vasodilation back to control level. Dose titration identified an effective molar dose range (approx. ≥1:3 of tTSP1:rh-CD47p) for prevention of/recovery from TSP1-induced vascular dysfunction. Our results indicate the great potential for proposed novel decoy rh-CD47p-therapy to abrogate TSP1-associated cardiovascular complications, such as PAH.

J Pharmacol Exp Ther 2021; 377:316-325. [PMID: 33722881 PMCID: PMC8140392 DOI: 10.1124/jpet.120.000361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2020] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) is upregulated in congestive heart failure (CHF), contributing to electrical, structural, and functional remodeling. CaMKII inhibition is known to improve CHF, but its direct cardiac effects in CHF remain unclear. We hypothesized that CaMKII inhibition improves cardiomyocyte function, [Ca2+]i regulation, and β-adrenergic reserve, thus improving advanced CHF. In a 16-week study, we compared plasma neurohormonal levels and left ventricular (LV)- and myocyte-functional and calcium transient ([Ca2+]iT) responses in male Sprague-Dawley rats (10/group) with CHF induced by isoproterenol (170 mg/kg sq for 2 days). In rats with CHF, we studied the effects of the CaMKII inhibitor KN-93 or its inactive analog KN-92 (n = 4) (70 µg/kg per day, mini-pump) for 4 weeks. Compared with controls, isoproterenol-treated rats had severe CHF with 5-fold-increased plasma norepinephrine and about 50% decreases in ejection fraction (EF) and LV contractility [slope of LV end-systolic pressure-LV end-systolic volume relation (EES)] but increased time constant of LV relaxation (τ). They also showed significantly reduced myocyte contraction [maximum rate of myocyte shortening (dL/dtmax)], relaxation (dL/dtmax), and [Ca2+]iT Isoproterenol superfusion caused significantly fewer increases in dL/dtmax and [Ca2+]iT KN-93 treatment prevented plasma norepinephrine elevation, with increased basal and acute isoproterenol-stimulated increases in EF and EES and decreased τ in CHF. KN-93 treatment preserved normal myocyte contraction, relaxation, [Ca2+]iT, and β-adrenergic reserve, whereas KN-92 treatment failed to improve LV and myocyte function, and plasma norepinephrine remained high in CHF. Thus, chronic CaMKII inhibition prevented CHF-induced activation of the sympathetic nervous system, restoring normal LV and cardiomyocyte basal and β-adrenergic-stimulated contraction, relaxation, and [Ca2+]iT, thereby playing a rescue role in advanced CHF. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: We investigated the therapeutic efficacy of late initiation of chronic Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) inhibition on progression of advanced congestive heart failure (CHF). Chronic CaMKII inhibition prevented CHF-induced activation of the sympathetic nervous system and restored normal intrinsic cardiomyocyte basal and β-adrenergic receptor-stimulated relaxation, contraction, and [Ca2+]i regulation, leading to reversal of CHF progression. These data provide new evidence that CaMKII inhibition is able and sufficient to rescue a failing heart, and thus cardiac CaMKII inhibition is a promising target for improving CHF treatment.

Life Sci 2021; 292:119552. [PMID: 33932446 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2021.119552] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2020] [Revised: 04/14/2021] [Accepted: 04/19/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
AIMS Heart failure (HF) is a progressive disease with recurrent hospitalizations and high mortality. However, the mechanisms underlying HF remain unclear. The present study aimed to explore the regulatory mechanism of histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) and DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1)/Src homology domain 2-containing tyrosine phosphatase-1 (SHP-1) axis in HF. METHODS The HF rat models and hypertrophy cell models were established. The characteristic parameters of the heart were detected by echocardiography. A multichannel physiological signal acquisition system was used to detect the hemodynamic parameters. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of HDAC3, DNMT1, and SHP-1 mRNAs, while Western blot was applied to analyze the expression of proteins. Masson staining was used to analyze the degree of collagen fiber infiltration. TdT-mediated DUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining was performed to analyze the apoptosis of myocardial tissue cells. Co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) was conducted to study the interaction between HDAC3 and DNMT1. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the apoptosis. KEY FINDINGS HDAC3 and DNMT1 were highly expressed in HF rat and hypertrophy cell models. HDAC3 modified DNMT1 through deacetylation to inhibit ubiquitination-mediated degradation, which promoted the expression of DNMT1. DNMT1 inhibited SHP-1 expression via methylation in the promoter region. In summary, HDAC3 modified DNMT1 by deacetylation to suppress SHP-1 expression, which in turn led to the development of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy-induced HF. SIGNIFICANCE This study provided potential therapeutic targets for HF treatment.

Positively Correlated CD47 Activation and Autophagy in Umbilical Cord Blood-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells during Senescence. Stem Cells Int 2021; 2021:5582792.

Abstract
Autophagy plays a critical role in stem cell maintenance and is related to cell growth and cellular senescence. It is important to find a quality-control marker for predicting senescent cells. This study verified that CD47 could be a candidate to select efficient mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to enhance the therapeutic effects of stem cell therapy by analyzing the antibody surface array. CD47 expression was significantly decreased during the expansion of MSCs in vitro (p < 0.01), with decreased CD47 expression correlated with accelerated senescence phenotype, which affected cell growth. UCB-MSCs transfected with CD47 siRNA significantly triggered the downregulation of pRB and upregulation of pp38, which are senescence-related markers. Additionally, autophagy-related markers, ATG5, ATG12, Beclin1, and LC3B, revealed significant downregulation with CD47 siRNA transfection. Furthermore, autophagy flux following treatment with an autophagy inducer, rapamycin, has shown that CD47 is a key player in autophagy and senescence to maintain and regulate the growth of MSCs, suggesting that CD47 may be a critical key marker for the selection of effective stem cells in cell therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) and silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1) are histone deacetylases that regulate important metabolic pathways and play important roles in diabetes and myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injury. In this study, we explored the protective mechanism of Bmal1-regulated autophagy mediated by the HDAC3/SIRT1 pathway in myocardial IR injury of diabetic rats. METHODS AND RESULTS Type 1 diabetes was established by administering an intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. After 8 weeks, the left anterior descending coronary artery was ligated for 30 min and reperfused for 120 min to establish a myocardial IR injury model in diabetic rats. H9c2 cardiomyocytes were exposed to high glucose concentration (30 mM) and hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) stimulation in vitro. The myocardial infarct size and levels of serum cTn-I, CK-MB, and LDH in diabetic rats subjected to myocardial IR injury were significantly higher. Upregulated HDAC3 and downregulated SIRT1 expression were observed in diabetic and IR hearts, along with a lower Bmal1 level. Autophagy was rapidly increased in the hearts of diabetic or non-diabetic rats in the IR group compared with the sham group, but significantly attenuated in the hearts of diabetic rats compared with the hearts of non-diabetic rats after IR insult. Consistent with decreased autophagy, we observed increased HDAC3 expression and decreased SIRT1 and Bmal1 levels in the myocardial tissue of diabetic rats after IR. Inhibition of HDAC3 by the inhibitor RGFP966 and activation of SIRT1 by the agonist SRT1720 could significantly attenuate myocardial IR injury in diabetic rats by restoring Bmal1-regulated autophagy. CONCLUSION Based on these findings, the disordered HDAC3/SIRT1 circuit (upregulated HDAC3 and downregulated SIRT1 levels) plays an important role in aggravating myocardial IR injury in diabetic rats by downregulating Bmal1-mediated autophagy. Treatments targeting HDAC3/SIRT1 to activate the autophagy may represent a novel strategy to alleviate myocardial IR injury in diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) is a clinical syndrome characterized by left ventricular dysfunction or elevated intracardiac pressures. Research supports that microRNAs (miRs) participate in HF by regulating targeted genes. Hence, the current study set out to study the role of HDAC3-medaited miR-18a in HF by targeting ADRB3. METHODS Firstly, HF mouse models were established by ligation of the left coronary artery at the lower edge of the left atrial appendage, and HF cell models were generated in the cardiomyocytes, followed by ectopic expression and silencing experiments. Numerous parameters including left ventricular posterior wall dimension (LVPWD), interventricular septal dimension (IVSD), left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS), left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LEVDP), heart rate (HR), left ventricular pressure rise rate (+ dp/dt) and left ventricular pressure drop rate (-dp/dt) were measured in the mice. In addition, apoptosis in the mice was detected by means of TUNEL staining, while RT-qPCR and Western blot analysis were performed to detect miR-18a, HDAC3, ADRB3, cMyb, MMP-9, Collagen 1 and TGF-β1 expression patterns. Dual luciferase reporter assay validated the targeting relationship between ADRB3 and miR-18a. Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was determined by means of flow cytometry. RESULTS HDAC3 and ADRB3 were up-regulated and miR-18a was down-regulated in HF mice and cardiomyocytes. In addition, HDAC3 could reduce the miR-18a expression, and ADRB3 was negatively-targeted by miR-18a. After down-regulation of HDAC3 or ADRB3 or over-expression of miR-18a, IVSD, LVEDD, LVESD and LEVDP were found to be decreased but LVPWD, LVEF, LVFS, LVSP, + dp/dt, and -dp/dt were all increased in the HF mice, whereas fibrosis, hypertrophy and apoptosis of HF cardiomyocytes were declined. CONCLUSION Collectively, our findings indicate that HDAC3 silencing confers protection against HF by inhibiting miR-18a-targeted ADRB3.

Abstract
ABSTRACT As an integral component of cardiac tissue, macrophages are critical for cardiac development, adult heart homeostasis, as well as cardiac healing. One fundamental function of macrophages involves the clearance of dying cells or debris, a process termed efferocytosis. Current literature primarily pays attention to the impact of efferocytosis on apoptotic cells. However, emerging evidence suggests that necrotic cells and their released cellular debris can also be removed by cardiac macrophages through efferocytosis. Importantly, recent studies have demonstrated that macrophage efferocytosis plays an essential role in cardiac pathophysiology and repair. Therefore, understanding macrophage efferocytosis would provide valuable insights on cardiac health, and may offer new therapeutic strategies for the treatment of patients with heart failure. In this review, we first summarize the molecular signals that are associated with macrophage efferocytosis of apoptotic and necrotic cells, and then discuss how the linkage of efferocytosis to the resolution of inflammation affects cardiac function and recovery under normal and diseased conditions. Lastly, we highlight new discoveries related to the effects of macrophage efferocytosis on cardiac injury and repair.

Cell Death Dis 2021; 12:43. [PMID: 33414413 PMCID: PMC7791027 DOI: 10.1038/s41419-020-03295-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2020] [Revised: 11/25/2020] [Accepted: 11/30/2020] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
The circadian clock is closely related to the development of diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease, and disruption of the circadian clock exacerbates myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI). HDAC3 is a key component of the circadian negative feedback loop that controls the expression pattern of the circadian nuclear receptor Rev-erbα to maintain the stability of circadian genes such as BMAL1. However, the mechanism by which the HDAC3-orchestrated Rev-erbα/BMAL1 pathway increases MI/RI in diabetes and its relationship with mitophagy have yet to be elucidated. Here, we observed that the clock genes Rev-erbα, BMAL1, and C/EBPβ oscillations were altered in the hearts of rats with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes, with upregulated HDAC3 expression. Oscillations of Rev-erbα and BMAL1 were rapidly attenuated in diabetic MI/R hearts versus non-diabetic I/RI hearts, in accordance with impaired and rhythm-disordered circadian-dependent mitophagy that increased injury. Genetic knockdown of HDAC3 significantly attenuated diabetic MI/RI by mediating the Rev-erbα/BMAL1 circadian pathway to recover mitophagy. Primary cardiomyocytes with or without HDAC3 siRNA and Rev-erbα siRNA were exposed to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) in vitro. The expression of HDAC3 and Rev-erbα in cardiomyocytes was increased under high-glucose conditions compared with low-glucose conditions, with decreased BMAL1 expression and mitophagy levels. After H/R stimulation, high glucose aggravated H/R injury, with upregulated HDAC3 and Rev-erbα expression and decreased BMAL1 and mitophagy levels. HDAC3 and Rev-erbα siRNA can alleviate high glucose-induced and H/R-induced injury by upregulating BMAL1 to increase mitophagy. Collectively, these findings suggest that disruption of HDAC3-mediated circadian gene expression oscillations induces mitophagy dysfunction, aggravating diabetic MI/RI. Cardiac-specific HDAC3 knockdown could alleviate diabetic MI/RI by regulating the Rev-erbα/BMAL1 pathway to restore the activation of mitophagy.

Abstract
CD47, also known as integrin-associated protein, is a constitutively and ubiquitously expressed transmembrane receptor. CD47 is conserved across amniotes including mammals, reptiles, and birds. Expression is increased in many cancers and, in non-malignant cells, by stress and with aging. The up-regulation of CD47 expression is generally epigenetic, whereas gene amplification occurs with low frequency in some cancers. CD47 is a high affinity signaling receptor for the secreted protein thrombospondin-1 (THBS1) and the counter-receptor for signal regulatory protein-α (SIRPA, SIRPα) and SIRPγ (SIRPG). CD47 interaction with SIRPα serves as a marker of self to innate immune cells and thereby protects cancer cells from phagocytic clearance. Consequently, higher CD47 correlates with a poor prognosis in some cancers, and therapeutic blockade can suppress tumor growth by enhancing innate antitumor immunity. CD47 expressed on cytotoxic T cells, dendritic cells, and NK cells mediates inhibitory THBS1 signaling that further limits antitumor immunity. CD47 laterally associates with several integrins and thereby regulates cell adhesion and migration. CD47 has additional lateral binding partners in specific cell types, and ligation of CD47 in some cases modulates their function. THBS1-CD47 signaling in non-malignant cells inhibits nitric oxide/cGMP, calcium, and VEGF signaling, mitochondrial homeostasis, stem cell maintenance, protective autophagy, and DNA damage response, and promotes NADPH oxidase activity. CD47 signaling is a physiological regulator of platelet activation, angiogenesis and blood flow. THBS1/CD47 signaling is frequently dysregulated in chronic diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Over the years, the roles of microRNAs (miRNAs) and histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) in human diseases have been investigated. This study focused on the effect of miR-19a-3p and HDAC3 in myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury (MIRI) by targeting cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2). METHODS The I/R rat models were established by coronary artery ligation, which were then treated with RGFP966 (an inhibitor of HDAC3), miR-19a-3p agomir or antagomir, or silenced CDK2 to explore their roles in the cardiac function, pathological changes of myocardial tissues, myocardial infarction area, inflammatory factors and oxidative stress factors in rats with MIRI. The expression of miR-19a-3p, HDAC3, and CDK2 was determined by RT-qPCR and western blot assay, and the interaction among which was also verified by online prediction, luciferase activity assay and ChIP assay. RESULTS The results indicated that HDAC3 and CDK2 were upregulated while miR-19a-3p was downregulated in myocardial tissues of I/R rats. The inhibited HDAC3/CDK2 or elevated miR-19a-3p could promote cardiac function, attenuate pathological changes, inflammatory reaction, oxidative stress, myocardial infarction area and apoptosis of myocardial tissues. HDAC3 mediates miR-19a-3p and CDK2 is targeted by miR-19a-3p. CONCLUSION Inhibited HDAC3 ameliorates MIRI in a rat model by elevating miR-19a-3p and reducing CDK2, which may contribute to the treatment of MIRI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), a Ca2+-binding trimeric glycoprotein secreted by multiple cell types, has been implicated in the pathophysiology of several clinical conditions. Signaling involving TSP-1, through its cognate receptor CD47, orchestrates a wide array of cellular functions including cytoskeletal organization, migration, cell-cell interaction, cell proliferation, autophagy, and apoptosis. In the present study, we investigated the impact of TSP-1/CD47 signaling on Ca2+ dynamics, survival, and deformability of human red blood cells (RBCs). METHODS Whole-cell patch-clamp was employed to examine transmembrane cation conductance. RBC intracellular Ca2+ levels and multiple indices of RBC cell death were determined using cytofluorometry analysis. RBC morphology and microvesiculation were examined using imaging flow cytometry. RBC deformability was measured using laser-assisted optical rotational cell analyzer. RESULTS Exposure of RBCs to recombinant human TSP-1 significantly increased RBC intracellular Ca2+ levels. As judged by electrophysiology experiments, TSP-1 treatment elicited an amiloride-sensitive inward current alluding to a possible Ca2+ influx via non-selective cation channels. Exogenous TSP-1 promoted microparticle shedding as well as enhancing Ca2+- and nitric oxide-mediated RBC cell death. Monoclonal (mouse IgG1) antibody-mediated CD47 ligation using 1F7 recapitulated the cell death-inducing effects of TSP-1. Furthermore, TSP-1 treatment altered RBC cell shape and stiffness (maximum elongation index). CONCLUSIONS Taken together, our data unravel a new role for TSP-1/CD47 signaling in mediating Ca2+ influx into RBCs, a mechanism potentially contributing to their dysfunction in a variety of systemic diseases.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated whether CD47 antibody could attenuate isoproterenol (ISO)-induced cardiac hypertrophy in mice and H9C2 cells. Cardiac hypertrophy was induced by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of ISO (60 mg.kg-1.d-1 in 100 µl of sterile normal saline) daily for 14 days, and cell hypertrophy was induced by ISO (10-5 mol/l) for 48 h. The injury was confirmed by increased levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), increased heart-to-body weight (HW/BW) ratio and visible cardiac fibrosis. Apoptosis was evaluated by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining. Autophagic flux in H9c2 cells was monitored by TEM and mRFP-GFP-LC3 virus transfection. The expression levels of Cleaved caspase-3, Cleaved caspase-9 and autophagy-related proteins were detected by Western blotting. CD47 antibody significantly limited ISO-induced increases in LDH, CK-MB, HW/BW ratio and attenuated cardiac fibrosis, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in the heart; CD47 antibody promoted autophagy flow and decreased cell apoptosis in cardiac tissues. Moreover, autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) reversed the effect of CD47 antibody treatment. In conclusion, CD47 antibody reduced ISO-induced cardiac hypertrophy by improving autophagy flux and rescuing autophagic clearance.

Abstract
Numerous age-dependent alterations at the molecular, cellular, tissue and organ systems levels underlie the pathophysiology of aging. Herein, the focus is upon the secreted protein thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) as a promoter of aging and age-related diseases. TSP1 has several physiological functions in youth, including promoting neural synapse formation, mediating responses to ischemic and genotoxic stress, minimizing hemorrhage, limiting angiogenesis, and supporting wound healing. These acute functions of TSP1 generally require only transient expression of the protein. However, accumulating basic and clinical data reinforce the view that chronic diseases of aging are associated with accumulation of TSP1 in the extracellular matrix, which is a significant maladaptive contributor to the aging process. Identification of the relevant cell types that chronically produce and respond to TSP1 and the molecular mechanisms that mediate the resulting maladaptive responses could direct the development of therapeutic agents to delay or revert age-associated maladies.

Abstract
Thrombospondin (TSP)-1 and TSP-2 are matricellular proteins in the extracellular matrix (ECM), which serve a significant role in the pathological processes of various cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The multiple effects of TSP-1 and TSP-2 are due to their ability to interact with various ligands, such as structural components of the ECM, cytokines, cellular receptors, growth factors, proteases and other stromal cell proteins. TSP-1 and TSP-2 regulate the structure and activity of the aforementioned ligands by interacting directly or indirectly with them, thereby regulating the activity of different types of cells in response to environmental stimuli. The pathological processes of numerous CVDs are associated with the degradation and remodeling of ECM components, and with cell migration, dysfunction and apoptosis, which may be regulated by TSP-1 and TSP-2 through different mechanisms. Therefore, investigating the role of TSP-1 and TSP-2 in different CVDs and the potential signaling pathways they are associated with may provide a new perspective on potential therapies for the treatment of CVDs. In the present review, the current understanding of the roles TSP-1 and TSP-2 serve in various CVDs were summarized. In addition, the interacting ligands and the potential pathways associated with these thrombospondins in CVDs are also discussed.

Abstract
CD47 (cluster of differentiation 47) is a ubiquitously expressed transmembrane protein that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. CD47 is both a receptor for the matricellular protein thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) and a ligand for signal-regulatory protein alpha (SIRPα). Suppression of CD47 activity enhances angiogenesis and blood flow, restores phagocytosis by macrophages, improves ischemic tissue survival, attenuates ischemia reperfusion injury, and reverses atherosclerotic plaque formation. In conclusion, these observations suggest a pathogenic role of CD47 in the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) and indicate that CD47 might be a potentially promising molecular target for treating CVDs. Herein, we highlight the role of CD47 in the CVD pathogenesis and discuss the potential clinical application by targeting CD47 for treating CVDs.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated whether CD47 deficiency attenuates isoproterenol- (ISO-) induced cardiac remodeling in mice. Cardiac remodeling was induced by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of ISO (60 mg·kg−1·d−1 in 100 μl of sterile normal saline) daily for 14 days and was confirmed by increased levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase MB (CK-MB), increased heart weight to body weight (HW/BW) ratios, and visible cardiac fibrosis. Apoptosis was evaluated by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining. Levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were found to be significantly higher in the ISO group than in the control group, while superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels were suppressed in the ISO group. However, CD47 knockout significantly limited ISO-induced increases in LDH, CK-MB, and HW/BW ratios, cardiac fibrosis, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in the heart. In addition, CD47 deficiency also increased p-AMPK and LAMP2 expression and decreased HDAC3, cleaved Caspase-3, cleaved Caspase-9, LC3II, and p62 expression in cardiac tissues. In conclusion, CD47 deficiency reduced i.p. ISO-induced cardiac remodeling probably by inhibiting the HDAC3 pathway, improving AMPK signaling and autophagy flux, and rescuing autophagic clearance.

Abstract
PURPOSE The delayed rejection caused by strong cell-mediated innate and adaptive xenogeneic immune responses continues to be a major obstacle. Therefore, suppressing macrophage function could be effective in avoiding this type of rejection. In this study, the suppression of T-cell immunoglobulin and ITIM domain (TIGIT) function against macrophage-mediated xenogeneic rejection was investigated. MATERIAL AND METHODS Naïve porcine aortic endothelial cell (PAEC) and PAEC transfectant with TIGIT (PAEC/TIGIT) were co-cultured with M1 macrophages, and the degree of cytotoxicity was determined by a counting beads assay. The anti/pro-inflammatory gene expression was determined by RT-PCR and the phosphorylated SHP-1 in the macrophages after co-culturing with PAEC or PAEC/TIGIT was evaluated by western blotting. RESULTS CD155 was expressed at essentially equal levels on both M1 and M2 macrophages, whereas TIGIT was highly expressed on M2 macrophages but not in M1 macrophages. TIGIT on PAEC significantly reduced the cytotoxicity of M1 macrophages but no significant suppression of phagocytosis was detected. TIGIT also caused a decrease in the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, namely TNFα, IL-1β and IL-12 in M1 macrophages. Furthermore, PAEC/TIGIT caused a significant increase in phosphorylated SHP-1 in M1 macrophages compared to PAEC. CONCLUSION The findings of this study indicate that TIGIT suppresses xenogeneic M1 macrophage-induced cytotoxicity, probably at least in part, via the phosphorylation of SHP-1. In addition, the reduced expression of some pro-inflammatory cytokines, namely TNFα, IL-1β and IL-12, was observed in M1 macrophages that had been cultured with PAEC/TIGIT.

Abstract
Fibrosis usually results from dysregulated wound repair and is characterized by
excessive scar tissue. It is a complex process with unclear mechanisms.
Accumulating evidence indicates that epigenetic alterations, including histone
acetylation, play a pivotal role in this process. Histone acetylation is
governed by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) and histone deacetylases (HDACs).
HDACs are enzymes that remove the acetyl groups from both histone and nonhistone
proteins. Aberrant HDAC activities are observed in fibrotic diseases, including
cardiac and pulmonary fibrosis. HDAC inhibitors (HDACIs) are molecules that
block HDAC functions. HDACIs have been studied extensively in a variety of
tumors. Currently, there are four HDACIs approved by the US Food and Drug
Administration for cancer treatment yet none for fibrotic diseases. Emerging
evidence from in vitro and in vivo preclinical
studies has presented beneficial effects of HDACIs in preventing or reversing
fibrogenesis. In this review, we summarize the latest findings of the roles of
HDACs in the pathogenesis of cardiac and pulmonary fibrosis and highlight the
potential applications of HDACIs in these two fibrotic diseases.

Abstract
The ECM (extracellular matrix) network plays a crucial role in cardiac homeostasis, not only by providing structural support, but also by facilitating force transmission, and by transducing key signals to cardiomyocytes, vascular cells, and interstitial cells. Changes in the profile and biochemistry of the ECM may be critically implicated in the pathogenesis of both heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. The patterns of molecular and biochemical ECM alterations in failing hearts are dependent on the type of underlying injury. Pressure overload triggers early activation of a matrix-synthetic program in cardiac fibroblasts, inducing myofibroblast conversion, and stimulating synthesis of both structural and matricellular ECM proteins. Expansion of the cardiac ECM may increase myocardial stiffness promoting diastolic dysfunction. Cardiomyocytes, vascular cells and immune cells, activated through mechanosensitive pathways or neurohumoral mediators may play a critical role in fibroblast activation through secretion of cytokines and growth factors. Sustained pressure overload leads to dilative remodeling and systolic dysfunction that may be mediated by changes in the interstitial protease/antiprotease balance. On the other hand, ischemic injury causes dynamic changes in the cardiac ECM that contribute to regulation of inflammation and repair and may mediate adverse cardiac remodeling. In other pathophysiologic conditions, such as volume overload, diabetes mellitus, and obesity, the cell biological effectors mediating ECM remodeling are poorly understood and the molecular links between the primary insult and the changes in the matrix environment are unknown. This review article discusses the role of ECM macromolecules in heart failure, focusing on both structural ECM proteins (such as fibrillar and nonfibrillar collagens), and specialized injury-associated matrix macromolecules (such as fibronectin and matricellular proteins). Understanding the role of the ECM in heart failure may identify therapeutic targets to reduce geometric remodeling, to attenuate cardiomyocyte dysfunction, and even to promote myocardial regeneration.

Abstract
To assess the effect of cluster of differentiation (CD47) downregulation on autophagy in hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)‑treated H9c2 cardiomyocytes. H9c2 cells were maintained in normoxic conditions (95% air, 5% CO2, 37˚C) without CD47 antibodies, Si‑CD47 or chloroquine (CQ) treatment; H9c2 cells in the H/R group were subjected to 24 h of hypoxia (1% O2, 94% N2, 5% CO2, 37˚C) followed by 12 h of reoxygenation (95% air, 5% CO2, 37˚C). All assays were controlled, triplicated and repeated on three separately initiated cultures. The biochemical parameters in the medium supernatant were measured to evaluate the oxidative stress in cardiomyocytes. The Annexin V‑fluorescein isothiocyanate assay was used to detect the apoptotic rate in the H9c2 cells. Transmission electron microscope, immunofluorescent staining and western blot analysis were performed to detect the effect of the CD47 antibody on autophagic flux in H/R‑treated H9c2 cardiomyocytes. The cardiomyocytic oxidative stress and apoptotic rate decreased and autophagic clearance increased after CD47 downregulation. H/R triggered cell autophagy, autophagosome accumulation and apoptosis in H9c2 cell lines. However, these effects can be attenuated by CD47 downregulation. This study demonstrates its clinical implications in ischemia/reperfusion injury treatment.

Abstract
In patients with diabetes, impaired activity of ADAMTS13 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type 1 repeats, member 13), the plasma metalloprotease that cleaves highly thrombogenic von Willebrand factor multimers, is a major risk factor of cardiovascular events. Here, using Adamts13-/- mice made diabetic by streptozotocin, we investigated the impact of the lack of ADAMTS13 on the development of diabetes-associated end-organ complications. Adamts13-/- mice experienced a shorter life span than their diabetic wild-type littermates. It was surprising that animal death was not related to the occurrence of detectable thrombotic events. The lack of ADAMTS13 drastically increased the propensity for ventricular arrhythmias during dobutamine-induced stress in diabetic mice. Cardiomyocytes of diabetic Adamts13-/- mice exhibited an aberrant distribution of the ventricular gap junction connexin 43 and increased phosphorylation of Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII), and with the consequent CaMKII-induced disturbance in Ca2+ handling, which underlie propensity for arrhythmia. In vitro, thrombospondin 1 (TSP1) promoted, in a paracrine manner, CaMKII phosphorylation in murine HL-1 cardiomyocytes, and ADAMTS13 acted to inhibit TSP1-induced CaMKII activation. In conclusion, the deficiency of ADAMTS13 may underlie the onset of lethal arrhythmias in diabetes through increased CaMKII phosphorylation in cardiomyocytes. Our findings disclose a novel function for ADAMTS13 beyond its antithrombotic activity.

Abstract
Approximately 5.7 million U.S. adults have been diagnosed with heart failure (HF). More concerning is that one in nine U.S. deaths included HF as a contributing cause. Current HF drugs (e.g., β-blockers, ACEi) target intracellular signaling cascades downstream of cell surface receptors to prevent cardiac pump dysfunction. However, these drugs fail to target other redundant intracellular signaling pathways and, therefore, limit drug efficacy. As such, it has been postulated that compounds designed to target shared downstream mediators of these signaling pathways would be more efficacious for the treatment of HF. Histone deacetylation has been linked as a key pathogenetic element for the development of HF. Lysine residues undergo diverse and reversible post-translational modifications that include acetylation and have historically been studied as epigenetic modifiers of histone tails within chromatin that provide an important mechanism for regulating gene expression. Of recent, bioactive compounds within our diet have been linked to the regulation of gene expression, in part, through regulation of the epi-genome. It has been reported that food bioactives regulate histone acetylation via direct regulation of writer (histone acetyl transferases, HATs) and eraser (histone deacetylases, HDACs) proteins. Therefore, bioactive food compounds offer unique therapeutic strategies as epigenetic modifiers of heart failure. This review will highlight food bio-actives as modifiers of histone deacetylase activity in the heart.

Abstract
Matricellular proteins are secreted molecules that have affinities for both extracellular matrix and cell surface receptors. Through interaction with structural proteins and the cells that maintain the matrix these proteins can alter matrix strength. Matricellular proteins exert control on cell activity primarily through engagement of membrane receptors that mediate outside-in signaling. An example of this group is thrombospondin-1 (TSP1), first identified as a component of the secreted product of activated platelets. As a result, TSP1 was initially studied in relation to coagulation, growth factor signaling and angiogenesis. More recently, TSP1 has been found to alter the effects of the gaseous transmitter nitric oxide (NO). This latter capacity has provided motivation to study TSP1 in diseases associated with loss of NO signaling as observed in cardiovascular disease and pulmonary hypertension (PH). PH is characterized by progressive changes in the pulmonary vasculature leading to increased resistance to blood flow and subsequent right heart failure. Studies have linked TSP1 to pre-clinical animal models of PH and more recently to clinical PH. This review will provide analysis of the vascular and non-vascular effects of TSP1 that contribute to PH, the experimental and translational studies that support a role for TSP1 in disease promotion and frame the relevance of these findings to therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nitrite has been shown to reduce right ventricle (RV) remodeling in experimental pulmonary hypertension. However, whether this effect is due to a reduction in RV afterload (ie, reduction in pulmonary artery pressure) or a direct effect on the RV itself remains unanswered. We hypothesize that nitrite has direct effects on RV remodeling and studied its effects in mice with pulmonary artery banding (PAB). METHODS AND RESULTS PAB decreased exercise tolerance and reduced RV systolic and diastolic function. Nitrite treatment attenuated the decrease in RV systolic function and improved the RV diastolic function. Nitrite-treated mice with PAB had similar exercise tolerance compared with a control group. PAB induced RV hypertrophy and fibrosis which were associated with increased expression of phospho-Akt. Interestingly, nitrite treatment attenuated PAB-induced RV hypertrophy and reduced the expression of phospho-Akt in RV tissue from mice with PAB. In neonatal rat cardiac fibroblast, nitrite also attenuated hypoxia-induced increase in expression of phospho-Akt. CONCLUSION Our study indicates that nitrite treatment has direct beneficial effects on RV and improves function and attenuates remodeling in RV exposed to chronic pressure overload. These beneficial effects, at least in part, could be due to the inhibition of the phospho-Akt (p-Akt) pathway activation.

Abstract
SIGNIFICANCE In contrast to structural elements of the extracellular matrix, matricellular proteins appear transiently during development and injury responses, but their sustained expression can contribute to chronic disease. Through interactions with other matrix components and specific cell surface receptors, matricellular proteins regulate multiple signaling pathways, including those mediated by reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and H2S. Dysregulation of matricellular proteins contributes to the pathogenesis of vascular diseases and cancer. Defining the molecular mechanisms and receptors involved is revealing new therapeutic opportunities. Recent Advances: Thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) regulates NO, H2S, and superoxide production and signaling in several cell types. The TSP1 receptor CD47 plays a central role in inhibition of NO signaling, but other TSP1 receptors also modulate redox signaling. The matricellular protein CCN1 engages some of the same receptors to regulate redox signaling, and ADAMTS1 regulates NO signaling in Marfan syndrome. In addition to mediating matricellular protein signaling, redox signaling is emerging as an important pathway that controls the expression of several matricellular proteins. CRITICAL ISSUES Redox signaling remains unexplored for many matricellular proteins. Their interactions with multiple cellular receptors remains an obstacle to defining signaling mechanisms, but improved transgenic models could overcome this barrier. FUTURE DIRECTIONS Therapeutics targeting the TSP1 receptor CD47 may have beneficial effects for treating cardiovascular disease and cancer and have recently entered clinical trials. Biomarkers are needed to assess their effects on redox signaling in patients and to evaluate how these contribute to their therapeutic efficacy and potential side effects. Antioxid.

Abstract
Our data suggest that, after a myocardial infarction, integrin-associated protein CD47 on cardiac myocytes is elevated. In culture, increased CD47 on the surface of dying cardiomyocytes impairs phagocytic removal by immune cell macrophages. After myocardial ischemia and reperfusion, acute CD47 inhibition with blocking antibodies enhanced dead myocyte clearance by cardiac phagocytes and also improved the resolution of cardiac inflammation, reduced infarct size, and preserved cardiac contractile function. Early targeting of CD47 in the myocardium after reperfusion may be a new strategy to enhance wound repair in the ischemic heart.

Abstract
Inhibition of total histone deacetylases (HDACs) was phenomenally associated with the prevention of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). However, which specific HDAC plays the key role in DCM remains unclear. The present study was designed to determine whether DCM can be prevented by specific inhibition of HDAC3 and to elucidate the mechanisms by which inhibition of HDAC3 prevents DCM. Type 1 diabetes OVE26 and age-matched wild-type (WT) mice were given the selective HDAC3 inhibitor RGFP966 or vehicle for 3 months. These mice were then killed immediately or 3 months later for cardiac function and pathological examination. HDAC3 activity was significantly increased in the heart of diabetic mice. Administration of RGFP966 significantly prevented DCM, as evidenced by improved diabetes-induced cardiac dysfunction, hypertrophy, and fibrosis, along with diminished cardiac oxidative stress, inflammation, and insulin resistance, not only in the mice killed immediately or 3 months later following the 3-month treatment. Furthermore, phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) 1/2, a well-known initiator of cardiac hypertrophy, was significantly increased, while dual specificity phosphatase 5 (DUSP5), an ERK1/2 nuclear phosphatase, was substantially decreased in diabetic hearts. Both of these changes were prevented by RGFP966. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay showed that HDAC3 inhibition elevated histone H3 acetylation on the DUSP5 gene promoter at both two time points. These findings suggest that diabetes-activated HDAC3 inhibits DUSP5 expression through deacetylating histone H3 on the primer region of DUSP5 gene, leading to the derepression of ERK1/2 and the initiation of DCM. The present study indicates the potential application of HDAC3 inhibitor for the prevention of DCM.

Thrombospondins: A Role in Cardiovascular Disease. Int J Mol Sci 2017; 18:ijms18071540. [PMID: 28714932 PMCID: PMC5536028 DOI: 10.3390/ijms18071540] [Citation(s) in RCA: 39] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2017] [Revised: 07/05/2017] [Accepted: 07/13/2017] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Thrombospondins (TSPs) represent extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins belonging to the TSP family that comprises five members. All TSPs have a complex multidomain structure that permits the interaction with various partners including other ECM proteins, cytokines, receptors, growth factors, etc. Among TSPs, TSP1, TSP2, and TSP4 are the most studied and functionally tested. TSP1 possesses anti-angiogenic activity and is able to activate transforming growth factor (TGF)-β, a potent profibrotic and anti-inflammatory factor. Both TSP2 and TSP4 are implicated in the control of ECM composition in hypertrophic hearts. TSP1, TSP2, and TSP4 also influence cardiac remodeling by affecting collagen production, activity of matrix metalloproteinases and TGF-β signaling, myofibroblast differentiation, cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and stretch-mediated enhancement of myocardial contraction. The development and evaluation of TSP-deficient animal models provided an option to assess the contribution of TSPs to cardiovascular pathology such as (myocardial infarction) MI, cardiac hypertrophy, heart failure, atherosclerosis, and aortic valve stenosis. Targeting of TSPs has a significant therapeutic value for treatment of cardiovascular disease. The activation of cardiac TSP signaling in stress and pressure overload may be therefore beneficial.

Abstract
AIMS Thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) is a ligand for CD47 and TSP1-/- mice are protected from pulmonary hypertension (PH). We hypothesized the TSP1-CD47 axis is upregulated in human PH and promotes pulmonary arterial vasculopathy. METHODS AND RESULTS We analyzed the molecular signature and functional response of lung tissue and distal pulmonary arteries (PAs) from individuals with (n = 23) and without (n = 16) PH. Compared with controls, lungs and distal PAs from PH patients showed induction of TSP1-CD47 and endothelin-1/endothelin A receptor (ET-1/ETA) protein and mRNA. In control PAs, treatment with exogenous TSP1 inhibited vasodilation and potentiated vasoconstriction to ET-1. Treatment of diseased PAs from PH patients with a CD47 blocking antibody improved sensitivity to vasodilators. Hypoxic wild type (WT) mice developed PH and displayed upregulation of pulmonary TSP1, CD47, and ET-1/ETA concurrent with down regulation of the transcription factor cell homolog of the v-myc oncogene (cMyc). In contrast, PH was attenuated in hypoxic CD47-/- mice while pulmonary TSP1 and ET-1/ETA were unchanged and cMyc was overexpressed. In CD47-/- pulmonary endothelial cells cMyc was increased and ET-1 decreased. In CD47+/+ cells, forced induction of cMyc suppressed ET-1 transcript, whereas suppression of cMyc increased ET-1 signaling. Furthermore, disrupting TSP1-CD47 signaling in pulmonary smooth muscle cells abrogated ET-1-stimulated hypertrophy. Finally, a CD47 antibody given 2 weeks after monocrotaline challenge in rats upregulated pulmonary cMyc and improved aberrations in PH-associated cardiopulmonary parameters. CONCLUSIONS In pre-clinical models of PH CD47 targets cMyc to increase ET-1 signaling. In clinical PH TSP1-CD47 is upregulated, and in both, contributes to pulmonary arterial vasculopathy and dysfunction.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is one of the critical components of the vasculature, regulating key signaling pathways in health. In macrovessels, NO functions to suppress cell inflammation as well as adhesion. In this way, it inhibits thrombosis and promotes blood flow. It also functions to limit vessel constriction and vessel wall remodeling. In microvessels and particularly capillaries, NO, along with growth factors, is important in promoting new vessel formation, a process termed angiogenesis. With age and cardiovascular disease, animal and human studies confirm that NO is dysregulated at multiple levels including decreased production, decreased tissue half-life, and decreased potency. NO has also been implicated in diseases that are related to neurotransmission and cancer although it is likely that these processes involve NO at higher concentrations and from nonvascular cell sources. Conversely, NO and drugs that directly or indirectly increase NO signaling have found clinical applications in both age-related diseases and in younger individuals. This focused review considers recently reported advances being made in the field of NO signaling regulation at several levels including enzymatic production, receptor function, interacting partners, localization of signaling, matrix-cellular and cell-to-cell cross talk, as well as the possible impact these newly described mechanisms have on health and disease.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) catalyze the removal of acetyl-groups from lysine residues within nucelosomal histone tails and thousands of non-histone proteins. The 18 mammalian HDACs are grouped into four classes. Classes I, II and IV HDACs employ zinc as a co-factor for catalytic activity, while class III HDACs (also known as sirtuins) require NAD+ for enzymatic function. Small molecule inhibitors of zinc-dependent HDACs are efficacious in multiple pre-clinical models of pressure overload and ischemic cardiomyopathy, reducing pathological hypertrophy and fibrosis, and improving contractile function. Emerging data have revealed numerous mechanisms by which HDAC inhibitors benefit the heart, including suppression of oxidative stress and inflammation, inhibition of MAP kinase signaling, and enhancement of cardiac protein aggregate clearance and autophagic flux. Here, we summarize recent findings with zinc-dependent HDACs and HDAC inhibitors in the heart, focusing on newly described functions for distinct HDAC isoforms (e.g. HDAC2, HDAC3 and HDAC6). Potential for pharmacological HDAC inhibition as a means of treating age-related cardiac dysfunction is also discussed. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: CV Aging.

Abstract
CD47 is a widely expressed integral membrane protein that serves as the counter-receptor for the inhibitory phagocyte receptor signal-regulatory protein-α (SIRPα) and as a signaling receptor for the secreted matricellular protein thrombospondin-1. Recent studies employing mice and somatic cells lacking CD47 have revealed important pathophysiological functions of CD47 in cardiovascular homeostasis, immune regulation, resistance of cells and tissues to stress and chronic diseases of aging including cancer. With the emergence of experimental therapeutics targeting CD47, a more thorough understanding of CD47 signal transduction is essential. CD47 lacks a substantial cytoplasmic signaling domain, but several cytoplasmic binding partners have been identified, and lateral interactions of CD47 with other membrane receptors play important roles in mediating signaling resulting from the binding of thrombospondin-1. This review addresses recent advances in identifying the lateral binding partners, signal transduction pathways and downstream transcription networks regulated through CD47 in specific cell lineages. Major pathways regulated by CD47 signaling include calcium homeostasis, cyclic nucleotide signaling, nitric oxide and hydrogen sulfide biosynthesis and signaling and stem cell transcription factors. These pathways and other undefined proximal mediators of CD47 signaling regulate cell death and protective autophagy responses, mitochondrial biogenesis, cell adhesion and motility and stem cell self-renewal. Although thrombospondin-1 is the best characterized agonist of CD47, the potential roles of other members of the thrombospondin family, SIRPα and SIRPγ binding and homotypic CD47 interactions as agonists or antagonists of signaling through CD47 should also be considered.
