The Effect of SERCA Activation on Functional Characteristics and Signaling of Rat Soleus Muscle upon 7 Days of Unloading. Biomolecules 2023; 13:1354. [PMID: 37759754 PMCID: PMC10526198 DOI: 10.3390/biom13091354] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2023] [Revised: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 09/02/2023] [Indexed: 09/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Skeletal muscle abnormalities and atrophy during unloading are accompanied by the accumulation of excess calcium in the sarcoplasm. We hypothesized that calcium accumulation may occur, among other mechanisms, due to the inhibition of sarco/endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) activity. Consequently, the use of the SERCA activator will reduce the level of calcium in the sarcoplasm and prevent the negative consequences of muscle unloading. Wistar rats were randomly assigned into one of three groups (eight rats per group): control rats with placebo (C), 7 days of unloading/hindlimb suspension with placebo (7HS), and 7 days of unloading treated with SERCA activator CDN1163 (7HSC). After seven days of unloading the soleus muscle, the 7HS group displayed increased fatigue in the ex vivo test, a significant increase in the level of calcium-dependent CaMK II phosphorylation and the level of tropomyosin oxidation, as well as a decrease in the content of mitochondrial DNA and protein, slow-type myosin mRNA, and the percentage of slow-type muscle fibers. All of these changes were prevented in the 7HSC group. Moreover, treatment with CDN1163 blocked a decrease in the phosphorylation of p70S6k, an increase in eEF2 phosphorylation, and an increase in MuRF-1 mRNA expression. Nevertheless, there were no differences in the degree of fast and slow muscle fiber atrophy between the 7HS and 7HSC groups. Conclusion: SERCA activation during 7 days of unloading prevented an increase in soleus fatigue, the decrease of slow-type myosin, mitochondrial markers, and markers of calcium homeostasis but had no effect on muscle atrophy.

Ther Adv Chronic Dis 2020; 11:2040622320944792. [PMID: 32922714 PMCID: PMC7457632 DOI: 10.1177/2040622320944792] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2020] [Accepted: 06/26/2020] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: In primary aldosteronism (PA), kidney function impairment could be concealed
by relative hyperfiltration and emerge after adrenalectomy. We hypothesized
transtubular gradient potassium gradient (TTKG), a kidney aldosterone
bioactivity indicator, could correlate to end organ damage and forecast
kidney function impairment after adrenalectomy. Methods: In the present prospective study, we enrolled lateralized PA patients who
underwent adrenalectomy and were followed up 12 months after operation in
the Taiwan Primary Aldosteronism Investigation (TAIPAI) registry from 2010
to 2018. The clinical outcome was kidney function impairment, defined as
estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) <60 ml/min/1.73 m2
at 12 months after adrenalectomy. End organ damage is determined by
microalbuminuria and left ventricular mass. Results: In total, 323 patients [mean, 50.8 ± 10.9 years old; female 178 (55.1%)] were
enrolled. Comparing pre-operation and post-operation data, systolic blood
pressure, serum aldosterone, urinary albumin to creatinine ratio and eGFR
decreased. TTKG ⩾ 4.9 correlated with pre-operative urinary albumin to
creatinine ratio >50 mg/g [odds ratio (OR) = 2.42;
p = 0.034] and left ventricular mass (B = 20.10;
p = 0.018). Multivariate logistic regression analysis
demonstrated that TTKG ⩾ 4.9 could predict concealed chronic kidney disease
(OR = 5.42; p = 0.011) and clinical success (OR = 2.90,
p = 0.017) at 12 months after adrenalectomy. Conclusions: TTKG could predict concealed kidney function impairment and cure of
hypertension in PA patients after adrenalectomy. TTKG more than 4.9 as an
adverse surrogate of aldosterone and hypokalaemia correlated with
pre-operative end organ damage in terms of high proteinuria and cardiac
hypertrophy.

Abstract
We investigated the potential adverse effects of hyperaldosteronism and/or hypoestrogenism on cardiac phenotype, and examined their combined effects in female mice overexpressing cardiac aldosterone synthase (AS). We focused on some signaling cascades challenging defensive responses to adapt and/or to survive in the face of double deleterious stresses, such as Ca2+ -homeostasis, pro/anti-hypertrophic, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress), pro- or anti-apoptotic effectors, and MAP kinase activation, and redox signaling. These protein expressions were assessed by immunoblotting at 9 weeks after surgery. Female wild type (FWT) and FAS mice were fed with phytoestrogen-free diet; underwent ovariectomy (Ovx) or sham-operation (Sham). Ovx increased gain weight and hypertrophy index. Transthoracic echocardiograghy was performed. Both Ovx-induced heart rate decrease and fractional shortening increase were associated with collagen type III shift. Cardiac estrogen receptor (ERα, ERβ) protein expression levels were downregulated in Ovx mice. Hypoestrogenism increased plasma aldosterone and MR protein expression in FAS mice. Both aldosterone and Ovx played as mirror effects on up and downstream signaling effectors of calcium/redox homeostasis, apoptosis, such as concomitant CaMKII activation and calcineurin down-regulation, MAP kinase inhibition (ERK1/2, p38 MAPK) and Akt activation. The ratio Bcl2/Bax is in favor to promote cell survivor. Finally, myocardium had dynamically orchestrated multiple signaling cascades to restore tolerance to hostile environment thereby contributing to a better maintenance of Ca2+ /redox homeostasis. Ovx-induced collagen type III isoform shift and its upregulation may be important for the biomechanical transduction of the heart and the recovery of cardiac function in FAS mice. OVX antagonized aldosterone signaling pathways.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca
2+
) is a universal regulator of various cellular functions. In cardiomyocytes, Ca
2+
is the central element of excitation–contraction coupling, but also impacts diverse signaling cascades and influences the regulation of gene expression, referred to as excitation–transcription coupling. Disturbances in cellular Ca
2+
-handling and alterations in Ca
2+
-dependent gene expression patterns are pivotal characteristics of failing cardiomyocytes, with several excitation–transcription coupling pathways shown to be critically involved in structural and functional remodeling processes. Thus, targeting Ca
2+
-dependent transcriptional pathways might offer broad therapeutic potential. In this article, we (1) review cytosolic and nuclear Ca
2+
dynamics in cardiomyocytes with respect to their impact on Ca
2+
-dependent signaling, (2) give an overview on Ca
2+
-dependent transcriptional pathways in cardiomyocytes, and (3) discuss implications of excitation–transcription coupling in the diseased heart.

Abstract
Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) has emerged as key enzyme in many cardiac pathologies, especially heart failure (HF), myocardial infarction and cardiomyopathies, thus leading to contractile dysfunction and malignant arrhythmias. While many pathways leading to CaMKII activation have been elucidated in recent years, hardly any clinically viable compounds affecting CaMKII activity have progressed from basic in vitro science to in vivo studies. This review focuses on recent advances in anti-arrhythmic strategies involving CaMKII. Specifically, both inhibition of CaMKII itself to prevent arrhythmias, as well as anti-arrhythmic approaches affecting CaMKII activity via alterations in signaling cascades upstream and downstream of CaMKII will be discussed.

Abstract
Acquired aplastic anemia (aAA) is a nonmalignant disease caused by autoimmune destruction of early hematopoietic cells. Clonal hematopoiesis is a late complication, seen in 20-25% of older patients. We hypothesized that clonal hematopoiesis in aAA is a more general phenomenon, which can arise early in disease, even in younger patients. To evaluate clonal hematopoiesis in aAA, we used comparative whole exome sequencing of paired bone marrow and skin samples in 22 patients. We found somatic mutations in 16 patients (72.7%) with a median disease duration of 1 year; of these, 12 (66.7%) were patients with pediatric-onset aAA. Fifty-eight mutations in 51 unique genes were found primarily in pathways of immunity and transcriptional regulation. Most frequently mutated was PIGA, with seven mutations. Only two mutations were in genes recurrently mutated in myelodysplastic syndrome. Two patients had oligoclonal loss of the HLA alleles, linking immune escape to clone emergence. Two patients had activating mutations in key signaling pathways (STAT5B (p.N642H) and CAMK2G (p.T306M)). Our results suggest that clonal hematopoiesis in aAA is common, with two mechanisms emerging-immune escape and increased proliferation. Our findings expand conceptual understanding of this nonneoplastic blood disorder. Future prospective studies of clonal hematopoiesis in aAA will be critical for understanding outcomes and for designing personalized treatment strategies.

Abstract
The aims of present study were to investigate the effect of phthalate (2-ethylhexyl) ester (DEHP) and mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) on Th1/Th2 balance signaling for interleukin 4 (IL-4) expression in splenic lymphocytes, and contribution of MEHP to any hypothesized changes in vitro. Primary splenic lymphocytes were exposed to DEHP/MEHP. ELISA and Western blotting were used to detect proteins. Confocal-microscopy was used to examine nuclear translocation. Nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) DNA binding activity was examined by electrophoretic mobility-shift assay. DEHP significantly increased IL-4 and interferon gamma (IFN-γ) level, and reduced Th1/Th2 ratio (reflected by IFN-γ/IL-4) with 5 μg/L Concanavalin A (ConA) treatment. While MEHP reduced Th1/Th2 ratio (represented by IFN-γ/IL-6). IL-4 mRNA was significantly increased by DEHP but not by MEHP after PMA and Ion treatment. DEHP significantly inhibited NFATp protein in cytosol and nucleus. DEHP augmented nuclear translocation of NFATc in transfected EL4 cells and NFAT DNA-binding activity. DEHP-mediated enhancement of calcium-dependent phosphatase calcineurin (CaN) protein, and NFAT and IL-4 expression were abrogated by calcium antagonist verapamil and CaN inhibitor tarcolimus. Ca(2+)/calmodulin antagonist chlorpromazine significantly suppressed IL-4 and CaN production with no NFAT mRNA change. Our study suggests that DEHP and MEHP impact Th1/Th2 balance by modulating different cytokines. DEHP-affected IL-4 expression through Ca/CaN/NFAT signaling pathway, but no effect was discovered for MEHP.

Abstract
The insulin-like signaling pathway maintains a relatively short wild-type lifespan in Caenorhabditis elegans by phosphorylating and inactivating DAF-16, the ortholog of the FOXO transcription factors of mammalian cells. DAF-16 is phosphorylated by the AKT kinases, preventing its nuclear translocation. Calcineurin (PP2B phosphatase) also limits the lifespan of C. elegans, but the mechanism through which it does so is unknown. Herein, we show that TAX-6•CNB-1 and UNC-43, the C. elegans Calcineurin and Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent kinase type II (CAMKII) orthologs, respectively, also regulate lifespan through DAF-16. Moreover, UNC-43 regulates DAF-16 in response to various stress conditions, including starvation, heat or oxidative stress, and cooperatively contributes to lifespan regulation by insulin signaling. However, unlike insulin signaling, UNC-43 phosphorylates and activates DAF-16, thus promoting its nuclear localization. The phosphorylation of DAF-16 at S286 by UNC-43 is removed by TAX-6•CNB-1, leading to DAF-16 inactivation. Mammalian FOXO3 is also regulated by CAMKIIA and Calcineurin.
