Abstract
Background A metabolic shift from fatty acid (FAO) to glucose oxidation (GO) occurs during cardiac hypertrophy (LVH) and heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), which is mediated by PGC-1α and PPARα. While the transcription factor EB (TFEB) regulates the expression of both PPARGC1A/PGC-1α and PPARA/PPARα, its contribution to metabolic remodeling is uncertain. Methods Luciferase assays were performed to verify that TFEB regulates PPARGC1A expression. Cardiomyocyte-specific Tfeb knockout (cKO) and wildtype (WT) male mice were subjected to 27G transverse aortic constriction or sham surgery for 21 and 56 days, respectively, to induce LVH and HFrEF. Echocardiographic, morphological, and histological analyses were performed. Changes in markers of cardiac stress and remodeling, metabolic shift and oxidative phosphorylation were investigated by Western blot analyses, mass spectrometry, qRT-PCR, and citrate synthase and complex II activity measurements. Results Luciferase assays revealed that TFEB increases PPARGC1A/PGC-1α expression, which was inhibited by class IIa histone deacetylases and derepressed by protein kinase D. At baseline, cKO mice exhibited a reduced cardiac function, elevated stress markers and a decrease in FAO and GO gene expression compared to WT mice. LVH resulted in increased cardiac remodeling and a decreased expression of FAO and GO genes, but a comparable decline in cardiac function in cKO compared to WT mice. In HFrEF, cKO mice showed an improved cardiac function, lower heart weights, smaller myocytes and a reduction in cardiac remodeling compared to WT mice. Proteomic analysis revealed a comparable decrease in FAO- and increase in GO-related proteins in both genotypes. A significant reduction in mitochondrial quality control genes and a decreased citrate synthase and complex II activities was observed in hearts of WT but not cKO HFrEF mice. Conclusions TFEB affects the baseline expression of metabolic and mitochondrial quality control genes in the heart, but has only minor effects on the metabolic shift in LVH and HFrEF in mice. Deletion of TFEB plays a protective role in HFrEF but does not affect the course of LVH. Further studies are needed to elucidate if TFEB affects the metabolic flux in stressed cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Development and progression of heart failure (HF) involve endothelial and myocardial dysfunction as well as a dysregulation of the nitric oxide - soluble guanylyl cyclase - cyclic guanosine monophosphate (NO-sGC-cGMP) signalling pathway. Recently, we reported that the sGC stimulator riociguat (RIO) has beneficial effects on cardiac remodelling and progression of HF in response to chronic pressure overload. Here, we examined if these favourable RIO effects are also reflected in alterations of the myocardial proteome and microRNA profiles. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Male C57BL/6N mice underwent transverse aortic constriction (TAC) and sham operated mice served as controls. TAC and sham animals were randomised and treated with either RIO or vehicle for five weeks, starting three weeks post-surgery when cardiac hypertrophy was established. Afterwards we performed mass spectrometric proteome analyses and microRNA sequencing of proteins and RNAs, respectively, isolated from left ventricles (LV). KEY RESULTS TAC-induced changes of the LV proteome were significantly reduced by RIO treatment. Bioinformatics analyses revealed that RIO improved TAC-induced cardiovascular disease related pathways, metabolism and energy production, e.g. reversed alterations in the levels of myosin heavy chain 7 (MYH7), cardiac phospholamban (PLN), and ankyrin repeat domain-containing protein 1 (ANKRD1). RIO also attenuated TAC-induced changes of microRNA levels in the LV. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS The sGC stimulator RIO has beneficial effects on cardiac structure and function during pressure overload, which is accompanied by a reversal of TAC-induced changes of the cardiac proteome and microRNA profile. Our data support the potential of RIO as a novel HF therapeutic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Heart failure is associated with an impaired NO-soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)-cGMP pathway and its augmentation is thought to be beneficial for its therapy. We hypothesized that stimulation of sGC by the sGC stimulator riociguat prevents pathological cardiac remodelling and heart failure in response to chronic pressure overload. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH Transverse aortic constriction or sham surgery was performed in C57BL/6N mice. After 3 weeks of transverse aortic constriction when heart failure was established, animals receive either riociguat or its vehicle for 5 additional weeks. Cardiac function was evaluated weekly by echocardiography. Eight weeks after surgery, histological analyses were performed to evaluate remodelling and the transcriptome of the left ventricles (LVs) was analysed by RNA sequencing. Cell culture experiments were used for mechanistically studies. KEY RESULTS Transverse aortic constriction resulted in a continuous decrease of LV ejection fraction and an increase in LV mass until week 3. Five weeks of riociguat treatment resulted in an improved LV ejection fraction and a decrease in the ratio of left ventricular mass to total body weight (LVM/BW), myocardial fibrosis and myocyte cross-sectional area. RNA sequencing revealed that riociguat reduced the expression of myocardial stress and remodelling genes (e.g. Nppa, Nppb, Myh7 and collagen) and attenuated the activation of biological pathways associated with cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Riociguat reversed pathological stress response in cultivated myocytes and fibroblasts. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS Stimulation of the sGC reverses transverse aortic constriction-induced heart failure and remodelling, which is associated with improved myocardial gene expression.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Heart Failure (HF) is associated with endothelial dysfunction and reduced bioavailability of NO with insufficient stimulation of sGC and reduced production of cGMP. Therefore, the impairment of the NO-sGC-cGMP pathway results in vasoconstriction, platelet aggregation, inflammation, fibrosis and most importantly maladaptive cardiac hypertrophy. The restoration of the NO-sGC -cGMP pathway is an attractive pharmacological target for HF therapy.
Purpose
Riociguat is an NO independent stimulator of the sGC that sensitizes the sGC to endogenous NO and directly stimulates sGC to produce cGMP. We therefore hypothesized that Riociguat prevents pathological effects occurring during HF.
Methods
Pressure overload was induced by transverse aortic constriction (TAC) in 8 weeks old male C57Bl6/N mice. Three weeks after TAC when cardiac hypertrophy has developed either Riociguat (RIO; 3 mg/kg) or a Solvent was administered daily for 5 more weeks (n=12 per group). Animals with sham surgery and same drug regime served as controls. The heart function in all groups was evaluated weekly by small animal echocardiography. Eight weeks after surgery, the transcriptome of the left ventricles (LV) of sham and TAC mice were analysed by RNA Sequencing. Differentially expressed genes (DEG) were categorised using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA).
Results
TAC resulted in a steady decrease of left ventricular fractional shortening (FS) in the mice until week 3. When Riociguat treatment commenced, the systolic LV function of the TAC+Rio group recovered significantly whereas the solvent group showed a further decline until week 8 (FS 21.4±3.4% vs. 9.5±2%, p<0.001). Both sham groups (Sham+Sol and Sham+Rio) showed no changes in the heart function over timer. Regarding the hypertrophic response to LV pressure overload, Riociguat treatment attenuated significantly the increase of the left ventricular mass (LVM 208.3±15.8mg vs. 148.9±11.8mg, p<0.001) after TAC. In line with the reduced LVM, histological staining showed a significantly reduced fibrosis and myocyte cross sectional area in the TAC+Rio group compared to TAC+Sol group. Regarding the myocardial transcriptome, the treatment with Riociguat resulted in less changes of gene expression pattern after TAC (TAC+Sol vs. Sham+Sol 3160 DEG; TAC+Rio vs. Sham+Rio 2237 DEG). The expression of heart failure marker genes like ANP (Nppa), BNP (Nppb), β-Myosin Heavy Chain (Myh7) and the Collagens 1 and 3 (Col1a1, Col1a2, Col3a1) were significantly decreased in TAC+Rio, when compared to TAC+Sol. IPA analysis revealed that the activation of biological pathways in response to TAC, like actin cytoskeleton- and Integrin signalling, renin-angiotensin or cardiac hypertrophy signalling was attenuated when Riociguat was administered.
Conclusion
Riociguat attenuates pressure overload induced LV remodelling resulting in less hypertrophy, improved heart function and less alteration of gene expression pattern.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) development is characterized by huge structural changes that are crucial for disease progression. Analysis of time dependent global proteomic adaptations during HF progression offers the potential to gain deeper insights in the disease development and identify new biomarker candidates. Therefore, hearts of TAC (transverse aortic constriction) and sham mice were examined by cardiac MRI on either day 4, 14, 21, 28, 42, and 56 after surgery (n = 6 per group/time point). At each time point, proteomes of the left (LV) and right ventricles (RV) of TAC and sham mice were analyzed by mass spectrometry (MS). In TAC mice, systolic LV heart function worsened from day 4 to day 14, remained on a stable level from day 14 to day 42, and showed a further pronounced decline at day 56. MS analysis identified in the LV 330 and in RV 246 proteins with altered abundance over time (TAC vs. sham, fc≥±2). Functional categorization of proteins disclosed the time-dependent alteration of different pathways. Heat shock protein beta-7 (HSPB7) displayed differences in abundance in tissue and serum at an early stage of HF. This study not only provides an overview of the time dependent molecular alterations during transition to HF, but also identified HSPB7 as a novel blood biomarker candidate for the onset of cardiac remodeling.
