Abstract
In mammals, the neonatal heart can regenerate upon injury within a short time after birth, while adults lose this ability. Metabolic reprogramming has been demonstrated to be critical for cardiomyocyte proliferation in the neonatal heart. Here, we reveal that cardiac metabolic reprogramming could be regulated by altering global protein lactylation. By performing 4D label-free proteomics and lysine lactylation (Kla) omics analyses in mouse hearts at postnatal days 1, 5, and 7, 2297 Kla sites from 980 proteins are identified, among which 1262 Kla sites from 409 proteins are quantified. Functional clustering analysis reveals that the proteins with altered Kla sites are mainly involved in metabolic processes. The expression and Kla levels of proteins in glycolysis show a positive correlation while a negative correlation in fatty acid oxidation. Furthermore, we verify the Kla levels of several differentially modified proteins, including ACAT1, ACADL, ACADVL, PFKM, PKM, and NPM1. Overall, our study reports a comprehensive Kla map in the neonatal mouse heart, which will help to understand the regulatory network of metabolic reprogramming and cardiac regeneration.

Transl Res 2024; 264:33-65.

Abstract
Orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) is a lifesaving procedure. However, grafts may fail due to primary nonfunction (PNF). In the past, we demonstrated PNFs to be mainly associated with fatty allografts, and given its unpredictable nature, the development of a disease model is urgently needed. In an effort to investigate mechanism of fatty allograft-associated PNFs, we induced fatty liver disease in donor animals by feeding rats a diet deficient in methionine and choline (MCD). We performed OLT with allografts of different grades of hepatic steatosis and compared the results to healthy ones. We assessed liver function by considering serum biochemistries, and investigated genome wide responses following OLT of healthy and fatty allograft-associated PNFs. Furthermore, we performed immunohistochemistry to evaluate markers of oxidative stress and reperfusion injury, inflammation, glycolysis and gluconeogenesis, lactate transport, and its utilization as part of the Cori cycle. Strikingly, PNFs are strictly lipid content dependent. Nonetheless, a fat content of ≤17% and an increase in the size of hepatocytes of ≤11% (ballooning) greatly improved outcome of OLTs and the hepatic microcirculation. Mechanistically, PNFs arise from a dysfunctional Cori cycle with complete ablation of the lactate transporter SLC16A1. Thus, lipid-laden hepatocytes fail to perform gluconeogenesis via lactate reutilization, and the resultant hyperlactatemia and lactic acidosis causes cardiac arrhythmogenicity and death. Furthermore, the genomic and immunohistochemistry investigations underscore a dysfunctional Krebs cycle with impaired energy metabolism in lipid-burdened mitochondria. Together, we show fatty allografts to be highly vulnerable towards ischemia/reperfusion-injury, and stabilizing the Cori cycle is of critical importance to avert PNFs.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases pose a major threat worldwide. Common cardiovascular diseases include acute myocardial infarction (AMI), heart failure, atrial fibrillation (AF) and atherosclerosis. Glycolysis process often has changed during these cardiovascular diseases. Lactate, the end-product of glycolysis, has been overlooked in the past but has gradually been identified to play major biological functions in recent years. Similarly, the role of lactate in cardiovascular disease is gradually being recognized. Targeting lactate production, regulating lactate transport, and modulating circulating lactate levels may serve as potential strategies for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases in the future. The purpose of this review is to integrate relevant clinical and basic research on the role of lactate in the pathophysiological process of cardiovascular disease in recent years to clarify the important role of lactate in cardiovascular disease and to guide further studies exploring the role of lactate in cardiovascular and other diseases.

Abstract
Background Blood metabolites have been found related to atrial fibrillation (AF), but the causal role is still unclear. Mendel randomization (MR) can give information about the causality between blood metabolites and AF. Methods Two-sample MR analysis was used to evaluate the causality between 486 blood metabolites and AF. Firstly, the genome-wide association study (GWAS) data for AF (from Nielsen et al.) was analyzed and some metabolites were identified. Then another GWAS data for AF (from Roselli et al.) was repeatedly analyzed to verify the results. Inverse variance weighted method was mainly used to determine the causality, and MR-egger, Weighted Median, and MR-PRESSO models were used as supplements of MR. Cochran's Q test was used to assess heterogeneity. And MR-Egger intercept and MR-PRESSO global test were performed to measure pleiotropy. Results The study used Bonferroni's corrected P value (P < 1.03 × 10-4) as the significance threshold. After MR analysis and replication analysis, we found two overlapped metabolites. Among which tryptophan betaine was the most significant causal metabolite in both AF GWAS data (from Nielsen et al.) (odds ratio (OR) = 0.83, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.76-0.90, P = 9.37 × 10-6) and AF GWAS data (from Roselli et al.) (OR = 0.82, 95% CI = 0.76-0.88, P = 2.00 × 10-7), while uridine was nominally significant metabolites in both AF GWAS data (from Nielsen et al.) (OR = 0.58, 95% CI = 0.40-0.84, P = 0.004) and AF GWAS data (from Roselli et al.) (OR = 0.56, 95% CI = 0.35-0.88, P = 0.01). And the results of sensitivity analysis showed that none of them had obvious heterogeneity or pleiotropy. Conclusion The study identified several blood metabolites that were causally related to AF, which may provide new perspectives on the pathogenesis of AF.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of sustained arrhythmia in diabetes mellitus (DM). Its morbidity and mortality rates are high, and its prevalence will increase as the population ages. Despite expanding knowledge on the pathophysiological mechanisms of AF, current pharmacological interventions remain unsatisfactory; therefore, novel findings on the underlying mechanism are required. A growing body of evidence suggests that an altered energy metabolism is closely related to atrial arrhythmogenesis, and this finding engenders novel insights into the pathogenesis of the pathophysiology of AF. In this review, we provide comprehensive information on the mechanistic insights into the cardiac energy metabolic changes, altered substrate oxidation rates, and mitochondrial dysfunctions involved in atrial arrhythmogenesis, and suggest a promising advanced new therapeutic approach to treat patients with AF.

Front Genet 2021; 12:789485. [PMID: 34917134 PMCID: PMC8669813 DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2021.789485] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2021] [Accepted: 11/08/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is an abnormal heart rhythm related to an increased risk of heart failure, dementia, and stroke. The distinction between valvular and non-valvular AF remains a debate. In this study, proteomics and metabolomics were integrated to describe the dysregulated metabolites and proteins of AF patients relative to sinus rhythm (SR) patients. Totally 47 up-regulated and 41 down-regulated proteins in valvular AF, and 59 up-regulated and 149 down-regulated proteins in non-valvular AF were recognized in comparison to SR patients. Moreover, 58 up-regulated and 49 significantly down-regulated metabolites in valvular AF, and 47 up-regulated and 122 down-regulated metabolites in persistent non-valvular AF patients were identified in comparison to SR patients. Based on analysis of differential levels of metabolites and proteins, 15 up-regulated and 22 down-regulated proteins, and 13 up-regulated and 122 down-regulated metabolites in persistent non-valvular AF were identified relative to valvular AF. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed the altered proteins and metabolites were significantly related to multiple metabolic pathways, such as Glycolysis/Gluconeogenesis. Interestingly, the enrichment pathways related to non-valvular AF were obviously different from those in valvular AF. For example, valvular AF was significantly related to Glycolysis/Gluconeogenesis, but non-valvular AF was more related to Citrate cycle (TCA cycle). Correlation analysis between the differentially expressed proteins and metabolites was also performed. Several hub proteins with metabolites were identified in valvular AF and non-valvular AF. For example, Taurine, D-Threitol, L-Rhamnose, and DL-lactate played crucial roles in valvular AF, while Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, Inorganic pyrophosphatase 2, Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoAlyase, and Deoxyuridine 5-triphosphate nucleotidohydrolase were crucial in non-valvular AF. Then two hub networks were recognized as potential biomarkers, which can effectively distinguish valvular AF and non-valvular persistent AF from SR samples, with areas under curve of 0.75 and 0.707, respectively. Hence, these metabolites and proteins can be used as potential clinical molecular markers to discriminate two types of AF from SR samples. In summary, this study provides novel insights to understanding the mechanisms of AF progression and identifying novel biomarkers for prognosis of non-valvular AF and valvular AF by using metabolomics and proteomics analyses.

Abstract
The optimal management of patients presenting to the Emergency Department with hemodynamically stable symptomatic atrial fibrillation remains unclear. We aimed to develop and validate an easy-to-use score to predict the individual probability of spontaneous conversion to sinus rhythm in these patients METHODS: This retrospective cohort study analyzed 2426 cases of first-detected or recurrent hemodynamically stable non-permanent symptomatic atrial fibrillation documented between January 2011 and January 2019 in an Austrian academic Emergency Department atrial fibrillation registry. Multivariable analysis was used to develop and validate a prediction score for spontaneous conversion to sinus rhythm during Emergency Department visit. Clinical usefulness of the score was assessed using decision curve analysis RESULTS: 1420 cases were included in the derivation cohort (68years, 57-76; 43% female), 1006 cases were included in the validation cohort (69years, 58-76; 47% female). Six variables independently predicted spontaneous conversion. These included: duration of atrial fibrillation symptoms (<24hours), lack of prior cardioversion history, heart rate at admission (>125bpm), potassium replacement at K+ level ≤3.9mmol/l, NT-proBNP (<1300pg/ml) and lactate dehydrogenase level (<200U/l). A risk score weight was assigned to each variable allowing classification into low (0-2), medium (3-5) and moderate (6-8) probability of spontaneous conversion. The final score showed good calibration (p=0.44 and 0.40) and discrimination in both cohorts (c-indices: 0.74 and 0.67) and clinical net benefit CONCLUSION: The ReSinus score, which predicts spontaneous conversion to sinus rhythm, was developed and validated in a large cohort of patients with hemodynamically stable non-permanent symptomatic atrial fibrillation and showed good calibration, discrimination and usefulness REGISTRATION: NCT03272620.

Abstract
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major cause of heart failure and is associated with insufficient myocardial oxygen supply. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying hypoxia‑induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis are not completely understood. In the present study, the role of human coilin interacting nuclear ATPase protein (hCINAP) in cardiomyocytes was investigated. AC16 cells were divided into the following four groups: i) Small interfering (si)RNA‑control (Ctrl); (ii) siRNA‑hCINAP; (iii) empty vector; and (iv) hCINAP‑Flag. Protein expression was assessed using western blotting. MTT and apoptosis assays were conducted to detect cell viability and apoptosis, respectively. CCK8 assays and apoptosis assays were used to detect cell viability and apoptosis, respectively. hCINAP promoter activity was examined by luciferase reporter assay. hCINAP expression was induced in a hypoxia‑inducible factor‑1α‑dependent manner under hypoxic conditions. Compared with the siRNA‑Ctrl group, hCINAP knockdown inhibited apoptosis, whereas compared with the vector group, hCINAP overexpression increased apoptosis under hypoxic conditions. Mechanistically, compared with the siRNA‑Ctrl group, hCINAP knockdown decreased hypoxia‑induced lactate accumulation via regulating lactate dehydrogenase A activity. Moreover, the results indicated that hCINAP was associated with mitochondrial‑mediated apoptosis via Caspase signaling. Collectively, the present study suggested that hCINAP was an important regulator in hypoxia‑induced apoptosis and may serve as a promising therapeutic target for AMI.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained arrhythmia. Atrial remodeling, including electrical/structural/autonomic remodeling, plays a vital role in AF pathogenesis. All of these have been shown to contribute continuously to the self-perpetuating nature of AF. The Warburg effect was found to play important roles in tumor and non-tumor disease. Recently, lots of studies documented altered atrial metabolism in AF, but the specific mechanism and the impact of these changes upon AF initiation/progression remain unclear. In this article, we review the metabolic consideration in AF comprehensively and observe the footprints of the Warburg effect. We also summarize the signaling pathway involved in the Warburg effect during AF-HIF-1α and AMPK, and discuss their potential roles in AF maintenance and progression. In conclusion, we give the innovative idea that the Warburg effect exists in AF and promotes the progression of AF. Targeting it may provide new therapies for AF treatment.

Abstract
Inflammatory processes underlie many diseases associated with injury of the heart muscle, including conditions without an obvious inflammatory pathogenic component such as hypertensive and diabetic cardiomyopathy. Persistence of cardiac inflammation can cause irreversible structural and functional deficits. Some are induced by direct damage of the heart muscle by cellular and soluble mediators but also by metabolic adaptations sustained by the inflammatory microenvironment. It is well established that both cardiomyocytes and immune cells undergo metabolic reprogramming in the site of inflammation, which allow them to deal with decreased availability of nutrients and oxygen. However, like in cancer, competition for nutrients and increased production of signalling metabolites such as lactate initiate a metabolic cross-talk between immune cells and cardiomyocytes which, we propose, might tip the balance between resolution of the inflammation versus adverse cardiac remodeling. Here we review our current understanding of the metabolic reprogramming of both heart tissue and immune cells during inflammation, and we discuss potential key mechanisms by which these metabolic responses intersect and influence each other and ultimately define the prognosis of the inflammatory process in the heart.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore the effects of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) on the structure and function of mitral valve and analyze independent risk factors of moderate to severe mitral regurgitation (MR) by quantitative measurement of mitral parameters using real-time 3-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography.This study included 30 subjects with sinus rhythm group, and 65 patients with NVAF. The 65 patients with NVAF were divided into 35 with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation group and 30 with persistent atrial fibrillation. According to MR degree, the patients with NVAF were again divided into no or mild MR group (n = 44) and moderate to severe MR group (n = 21).There were significant differences in anterolateral-to-posteromedial diameter (DAlPm), anterior-to-posterior diameter, 3-dimensional circumference (C3D), 2-dimensional area (A2D), mitral leaflet surface area in late systolic phase, the index of mitral valve coaptation and left atrial internal diameter (LAID) between different cardiac rhythm groups (all P < .05). The DAlPm, C3D, A2D, nonplanar angle (θNPA), and LAID were greater but the mitral valve coaptation index was smaller in the moderate to severe MR group than in the no or mild MR group (all P < .05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that DAlPm and LAID were independent risk factors of moderate to severe MR in the patients with NVAF (OR > 1, P < .05).DAlPm and LAID are independent risk factors of moderate to severe MR in the patients with NVAF. NVAF can change the structure and function of mitral valve, which leads to MR.

Abstract
Emerging evidence indicates that there is a complex interplay between metabolism and chronic disorders in the nervous system. In particular, the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) kinase (PDK)-lactic acid axis is a critical link that connects metabolic reprogramming and the pathophysiology of neurological disorders. PDKs, via regulation of PDH complex activity, orchestrate the conversion of pyruvate either aerobically to acetyl-CoA, or anaerobically to lactate. The kinases are also involved in neurometabolic dysregulation under pathological conditions. Lactate, an energy substrate for neurons, is also a recently acknowledged signaling molecule involved in neuronal plasticity, neuron-glia interactions, neuroimmune communication, and nociception. More recently, the PDK-lactic acid axis has been recognized to modulate neuronal and glial phenotypes and activities, contributing to the pathophysiologies of diverse neurological disorders. This review covers the recent advances that implicate the PDK-lactic acid axis as a novel linker of metabolism and diverse neuropathophysiologies. We finally explore the possibilities of employing the PDK-lactic acid axis and its downstream mediators as putative future therapeutic strategies aimed at prevention or treatment of neurological disorders.

Abstract
AIM Lactates accumulate in ischemic brains. G protein-coupled receptor 81 (GPR81) is an endogenous receptor for lactate. We aimed to explore whether lactate is involved in ischemic injury via activating GPR81. METHODS N2A cells were transfected with GFP-GPR81 plasmids 24 h previously, and then treated with GPR81 antagonist 3-hydroxy-butyrate (3-OBA) alone or cotreated with agonists lactate or 3, 5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3, 5-DHBA) during 3 h of oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD). Adult male C57BL/6J mice and primary cultured cortical neurons were treated with 3-OBA at the onset of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) or OGD, respectively. RESULTS The GPR81 overexpression increased the cell vulnerability to ischemic injury. And GPR81 antagonism by 3-OBA significantly prevented cell death and brain injury after OGD and MCAO, respectively. Furthermore, inhibition of GPR81 reversed ischemia-induced apoptosis and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling may be involved in the neuroprotection. CONCLUSIONS G protein-coupled receptor 81 (GPR81) inhibition attenuated ischemic neuronal death. Lactate may aggravate ischemic brain injury by activating GPR81. GPR81 antagonism might be a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of cerebral ischemia.

Is it a predictive factor of postoperative morbidity?]. ACTA ACUST UNITED AC 2014; 61:311-8. [PMID: 24556510 DOI: 10.1016/j.redar.2014.01.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2013] [Revised: 12/26/2013] [Accepted: 01/10/2014] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Increased serum lactate in postoperative cardiac surgery is very common and its pathogenesis is due to multiple factors. The elevation of serum lactate is associated with tissue hypoxia (hyperlactatemia type A) and non-hypoxic (hyperlactatemia type B) metabolic disorders. The aim of the study was to assess the evolution of postoperative lactate in surgical atrial fibrillation ablation during cardiac surgery, and to determine whether lactate levels could be predictors of morbimortality. MATERIAL AND METHODS A case-control study was conducted on 32 patients undergoing surgical atrial fibrillation ablation and cardiac surgery (Maze group) and 32 matched patients (Control group), operated on between 2011 and 2012. An analysis was made of the levels of postoperative lactate, perioperative morbimortality and hospital length of stay. A univariate and multivariate study was performed for a composite endpoint of morbimortality, and prolonged length of stay. RESULTS Lactate levels were significantly higher at 6, 12 and 24h in the Maze group. The univariate analysis showed that being in the Maze group (OR 3.88; 95% CI 1.3-11.1; P=.01) and an elevated lactate at 12h (OR 1.33; 95% CI 1.01-1.7; P=.04) were significant predictors of major complications, mortality, and longer hospital stays. In the multivariate analysis, surgical atrial fibrillation ablation (Maze group) was an independent predictor of major complications (OR 4.13; 95% CI 1.312.9; P=.015) for the morbimortality composite endpoint (OR 3.9; 95% CI 1.3-11.6; P=.01), and prolonged length of stay in the Intensive Care Unit (OR 5.7; 95% CI 2.01-15.7; P=.01). CONCLUSIONS The atrial fibrillation surgical ablation may be a not-yet-described cause of type B hyperlactatemia, with serum peak values being reached between 4-24h after cardiac surgery. The predictive value of this elevation, its correlation with morbimortality, its sensitivity and specificity to discriminate the significant thresholds needs to be defined.
