J Neurosci 2024; 44:e2032232024. [PMID: 38565292 PMCID: PMC11112640 DOI: 10.1523/jneurosci.2032-23.2024] [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: 10/27/2023] [Revised: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 03/26/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024] Open
Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and its analogs are widely used for diabetes treatment. The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is crucial for regulating cardiovascular activity. This study aims to determine the roles of GLP-1 and its receptors (GLP-1R) in the PVN in regulating sympathetic outflow and blood pressure. Experiments were carried out in male normotensive rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were recorded. GLP-1 and GLP-1R expressions were present in the PVN. PVN microinjection of GLP-1R agonist recombinant human GLP-1 (rhGLP-1) or EX-4 increased RSNA and MAP, which were prevented by GLP-1R antagonist exendin 9-39 (EX9-39) or GLP-1R antagonist 1, superoxide scavenger tempol, antioxidant N-acetylcysteine, NADPH oxidase (NOX) inhibitor apocynin, adenylyl cyclase (AC) inhibitor SQ22536 or protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor H89. PVN microinjection of rhGLP-1 increased superoxide production, NADPH oxidase activity, cAMP level, AC, and PKA activity, which were prevented by SQ22536 or H89. GLP-1 and GLP-1R were upregulated in the PVN of SHR. PVN microinjection of GLP-1 agonist increased RSNA and MAP in both WKY and SHR, but GLP-1 antagonists caused greater effects in reducing RSNA and MAP in SHR than in WKY. The increased superoxide production and NADPH oxidase activity in the PVN of SHR were augmented by GLP-1R agonists but attenuated by GLP-1R antagonists. These results indicate that activation of GLP-1R in the PVN increased sympathetic outflow and blood pressure via cAMP-PKA-mediated NADPH oxidase activation and subsequent superoxide production. GLP-1 and GLP-1R upregulation in the PVN partially contributes to sympathetic overactivity and hypertension.

Abstract
Semi-anadromous animals experience salinity fluctuations during their life-span period. Alterations of environmental conditions induce stress response where catecholamines (CA) play a central role. Physiological stress and changes in external and internal osmolarity are frequently associated with increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this work, we studied the involvement of the cAMP/PKA pathway in mediating catecholamine-dependent effects on osmoregulatory responses, intracellular production of ROS, and mitochondrial membrane potential of the river lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis, Linnaeus, 1758) red blood cells (RBCs). We also investigated the role of hypoosmotic shock in the process of ROS production and mitochondrial respiration of RBCs. For this, osmotic stability and the dynamics of the regulatory volume decrease (RVD) following hypoosmotic swelling, intracellular ROS levels, and changes in mitochondrial membrane potential were assessed in RBCs treated with epinephrine (Epi, 25 μM) and forskolin (Forsk, 20 μM). Epi and Forsk markedly reduced the osmotic stability of the lamprey RBCs whereas did not affect the dynamics of the RVD response in a hypoosmotic environment. Activation of PKA with Epi and Forsk increased ROS levels and decreased mitochondrial membrane potential of the lamprey RBCs. In contrast, upon hypoosmotic shock enhanced ROS production in RBCs was accompanied by increased mitochondrial membrane potential. Overall, a decrease in RBC osmotic stability and the enhancement of ROS formation induced by β-adrenergic stimulation raises concerns about stress-associated changes in RBC functions in agnathans. Increased ROS production in RBCs under hypoosmotic shock indicates that a decrease in blood osmolarity may be associated with oxidative damage of RBCs during lamprey migration.

Drug Des Devel Ther 2024; 18:71-80. [PMID: 38229917 PMCID: PMC10790636 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s432453] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 01/06/2024] [Indexed: 01/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Nicotine is a major component of cigarette smoke with various detrimental cardiovascular effects, including increased oxidative stress in the heart. Agonism of α2-adrenergic receptors (ARs), such as with dexmedetomidine, has been documented to exert cardioprotective effects against oxidative stress and related apoptosis and necroptosis. α2-ARs are membrane-residing G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that primarily activate Gi/o proteins. They are also subjected to GPCR-kinase (GRK)-2-dependent desensitization, which entails phosphorylation of the agonist-activated receptor by GRK2 to induce its decoupling from G proteins, thus terminating α2AR-mediated G protein signaling. Objective In the present study, we sought to examine the effects of nicotine on α2AR signaling and effects in H9c2 cardiomyocytes exposed to H2O2 to induce oxidative cellular damage. Methods and Results As expected, treatment of H9c2 cardiomyocytes with H2O2 significantly decreased cell viability and increased oxidative stress, as assessed by reactive oxygen species (ROS)-associated fluorescence levels (DCF assay) and superoxide dismutase activity. Both H2O2 effects were partly rescued by α2AR activation with brimonidine in control cardiomyocytes but not in cells pretreated with nicotine for 24 hours, in which brimonidine was unable to reduce H2O2-induced cell death and oxidative stress. This was due to severe α2AR desensitization, manifested as very low Gi protein activation by brimonidine, and accompanied by GRK2 upregulation in nicotine-treated cardiomyocytes. Finally, pharmacological inhibition of adenylyl cyclase (AC) blocked H2O2-dependent oxidative damage in nicotine-pretreated H9c2 cardiomyocytes, indicating that α2AR activation protects against oxidative injury via its classic coupling to Gai-mediated AC inhibition. Discussion/Conclusions Nicotine can negate the cardioprotective effects of α2AR agonists against oxidative injury, which may have important implications for patients treated with this class of drugs that are chronic tobacco smokers.

Abstract
Exercise has proven cardiac benefits, but the underlying mechanisms of exercise that protect the heart from acute sympathetic stress injuries remain unknown. In this study, adult C57BL/6J mice and their AMP-activated protein kinase α2 knockout (AMPKα2-/-) littermates were either subjected to 6 weeks of exercise training or housed under sedentary conditions and then treated with or without a single subcutaneous injection of the β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) agonist isoprenaline (ISO). We investigated the differences in the protective effects of exercise training on ISO-induced cardiac inflammation in wild-type (WT) and AMPKα2-/- mice using histology, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blotting analyses. The results indicated that exercise training alleviated ISO-induced cardiac macrophage infiltration, chemokines and the expression of proinflammatory cytokines in wild-type mice. A mechanism study showed that exercise training attenuated the ISO-induced production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the activation of NLR Family, pyrin domain-containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasomes. In cardiomyocytes, the ISO-induced effects on these processes were inhibited by AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activator (metformin) pretreatment and reversed by the AMPK inhibitor (compound C). AMPKα2-/- mice showed more extensive cardiac inflammation following ISO exposure than their wild-type littermates. These results indicated that exercise training could attenuate ISO-induced cardiac inflammation by inhibiting the ROS-NLRP3 inflammasome pathway in an AMPK-dependent manner. Our findings suggested the identification of a novel mechanism for the cardioprotective effects of exercise.

Mitochondrial Dysfunction in Cardiac Arrhythmias. Cells 2023; 12:cells12050679.

Abstract
Electrophysiological and structural disruptions in cardiac arrhythmias are closely related to mitochondrial dysfunction. Mitochondria are an organelle generating ATP, thereby satisfying the energy demand of the incessant electrical activity in the heart. In arrhythmias, the homeostatic supply-demand relationship is impaired, which is often accompanied by progressive mitochondrial dysfunction leading to reduced ATP production and elevated reactive oxidative species generation. Furthermore, ion homeostasis, membrane excitability, and cardiac structure can be disrupted through pathological changes in gap junctions and inflammatory signaling, which results in impaired cardiac electrical homeostasis. Herein, we review the electrical and molecular mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias, with a particular focus on mitochondrial dysfunction in ionic regulation and gap junction action. We provide an update on inherited and acquired mitochondrial dysfunction to explore the pathophysiology of different types of arrhythmias. In addition, we highlight the role of mitochondria in bradyarrhythmia, including sinus node dysfunction and atrioventricular node dysfunction. Finally, we discuss how confounding factors, such as aging, gut microbiome, cardiac reperfusion injury, and electrical stimulation, modulate mitochondrial function and cause tachyarrhythmia.

Abstract
Isoproterenol (ISO) is widely used to treat bronchial asthma, cardiogenic or septic shock, complete atrioventricular block, and cardiac arrest. However, it can also cause myocardial damage owing to infarct-like necrosis. Curdione, an extract of the Chinese herb Rhizoma Curcumae, has a variety of pharmacological activities, including cardioprotective effects. In this study, we investigated the protective effects of curdione and its underlying mechanisms in an ISO-induced myocardial injury model. Our results showed that curdione attenuated ISO-induced H9c2 cell proliferation inhibition and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) release. Curdione ameliorated morphological damage and reduced the ISO-induced elevation of serum creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme (CK-MB) and LDH. Furthermore, curdione inhibited ISO-induced cell apoptosis, modulated the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax proteins, repealed the accumulation of ISO-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS), prevented mitochondrial dysfunction, and activated the Nrf2/SOD1/HO-1 signaling pathway. The above results show that curdione exerts a protective effect against ISO-induced myocardial damage by inhibiting apoptosis and oxidative stress, suggesting that curdione is a potential therapeutic strategy to prevent ISO-induced myocardial damage.

Dexmedetomidine Attenuates Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Sympathetic Activation and Sepsis via Suppressing Superoxide Signaling in Paraventricular Nucleus. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11122395.

Abstract
Sympathetic overactivity contributes to the pathogenesis of sepsis. The selective α2-adrenergic receptor agonist dexmedetomidine (DEX) is widely used for perioperative sedation and analgesia. We aimed to determine the central roles and mechanisms of DEX in attenuating sympathetic activity and inflammation in sepsis. Sepsis was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in rats. Effects of DEX were investigated 24 h after injection of LPS. Bilateral microinjection of DEX in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) attenuated LPS-induced sympathetic overactivity, which was attenuated by the superoxide dismutase inhibitor DETC, cAMP analog db-cAMP or GABAA receptor antagonist gabazine. Superoxide scavenger tempol, NADPH oxidase inhibitor apocynin, adenylate cyclase inhibitor SQ22536 or PKA inhibitor Rp-cAMP caused similar effects to DEX in attenuating LPS-induced sympathetic activation. DEX inhibited LPS-induced superoxide and cAMP production, as well as NADPH oxidase, adenylate cyclase and PKA activation. The roles of DEX in reducing superoxide production and NADPH oxidase activation were attenuated by db-cAMP or gabazine. Intravenous infusion of DEX inhibited LPS-induced sympathetic overactivity, NOX activation, superoxide production, TNF-α and IL-1β upregulation in the PVN and plasma, as well as lung and renal injury, which were attenuated by the PVN microinjection of yohimbine and DETC. We conclude that activation of α2-adrenergic receptors with DEX in the PVN attenuated LPS-induced sympathetic overactivity by reducing NADPH oxidase-dependent superoxide production via both inhibiting adenylate cyclase-cAMP-PKA signaling and activating GABAA receptors. The inhibition of NADPH oxidase-dependent superoxide production in the PVN partially contributes to the roles of intravenous infusion of DEX in attenuating LPS-induced sympathetic activation, oxidative stress and inflammation.

Asprosin in the Paraventricular Nucleus Induces Sympathetic Activation and Pressor Responses via cAMP-Dependent ROS Production. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232012595.

Abstract
Asprosin is a newly discovered adipokine that is involved in regulating metabolism. Sympathetic overactivity contributes to the pathogenesis of several cardiovascular diseases. The paraventricular nucleus (PVN) of the hypothalamus plays a crucial role in the regulation of sympathetic outflow and blood pressure. This study was designed to determine the roles and underlying mechanisms of asprosin in the PVN in regulating sympathetic outflow and blood pressure. Experiments were carried out in male adult SD rats under anesthesia. Renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and heart rate (HR) were recorded, and PVN microinjections were performed bilaterally. Asprosin mRNA and protein expressions were high in the PVN. The high asprosin expression in the PVN was involved in both the parvocellular and magnocellular regions according to immunohistochemical analysis. Microinjection of asprosin into the PVN produced dose-related increases in RSNA, MAP, and HR, which were abolished by superoxide scavenger tempol, antioxidant N-acetylcysteine (NAC), and NADPH oxidase inhibitor apocynin. The asprosin promoted superoxide production and increased NADPH oxidase activity in the PVN. Furthermore, it increased the cAMP level, adenylyl cyclase (AC) activity, and protein kinase A (PKA) activity in the PVN. The roles of asprosin in increasing RSNA, MAP, and HR were prevented by pretreatment with AC inhibitor SQ22536 or PKA inhibitor H89 in the PVN. Microinjection of cAMP analog db-cAMP into the PVN played similar roles with asprosin in increasing the RSNA, MAP, and HR, but failed to further augment the effects of asprosin. Pretreatment with PVN microinjection of SQ22536 or H89 abolished the roles of asprosin in increasing superoxide production and NADPH oxidase activity in the PVN. These results indicated that asprosin in the PVN increased the sympathetic outflow, blood pressure, and heart rate via cAMP–PKA signaling-mediated NADPH oxidase activation and the subsequent superoxide production.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Adrenergic receptors (ARs) are G protein-coupled receptors that are stimulated by catecholamines to induce a wide array of physiological effects across tissue types. Both α1- and β-ARs are found on cardiomyocytes and regulate cardiac contractility and hypertrophy through diverse molecular pathways. Acute activation of cardiomyocyte β-ARs increases heart rate and contractility as an adaptive stress response. However, chronic β-AR stimulation contributes to the pathobiology of heart failure. By contrast, mounting evidence suggests that α1-ARs serve protective functions that may mitigate the deleterious effects of chronic β-AR activation. Here, we will review recent studies demonstrating that α1- and β-ARs differentially regulate mitochondrial biogenesis and dynamics, mitochondrial calcium handling, and oxidative phosphorylation in cardiomyocytes. We will identify potential mechanisms of these actions and focus on the implications of these findings for the modulation of contractile function in the uninjured and failing heart. Collectively, we hope to elucidate important physiological processes through which these well-studied and clinically relevant receptors stimulate and fuel cardiac contraction to contribute to myocardial health and disease.

Abstract
G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) and β-arrestins play key roles in GPCR and non-GPCR cellular responses. In fact, GRKs and arrestins are involved in a plethora of pathways vital for physiological maintenance of inter- and intracellular communication. Here we review decades of research literature spanning from the discovery, identification of key structural elements, and findings supporting the diverse roles of these proteins in GPCR-mediated pathways. We then describe how GRK2 and β-arrestins partake in non-GPCR signaling and briefly summarize their involvement in various pathologies. We conclude by presenting gaps in knowledge and our prospective on the promising pharmacological potential in targeting these proteins and/or downstream signaling. Future research is warranted and paramount for untangling these novel and promising roles for GRK2 and arrestins in metabolism and disease progression.

Glibenclamide alleviates β adrenergic receptor activation-induced cardiac inflammation. Acta Pharmacol Sin 2022; 43:1243-1250.

Abstract
β-Adrenergic receptor (β-AR) overactivation is a major pathological factor associated with cardiac diseases and mediates cardiac inflammatory injury. Glibenclamide has shown anti-inflammatory effects in previous research. However, it is unclear whether and how glibenclamide can alleviate cardiac inflammatory injury induced by β-AR overactivation. In the present study, male C57BL/6J mice were treated with or without the β-AR agonist isoprenaline (ISO) with or without glibenclamide pretreatment. The results indicated that glibenclamide alleviated ISO-induced macrophage infiltration in the heart, as determined by Mac-3 staining. Consistent with this finding, glibenclamide also inhibited ISO-induced chemokines and proinflammatory cytokines expression in the heart. Moreover, glibenclamide inhibited ISO-induced cardiac fibrosis and dysfunction in mice. To reveal the protective mechanism of glibenclamide, the NLRP3 inflammasome was further analysed. ISO activated the NLRP3 inflammasome in both cardiomyocytes and mouse hearts, but this effect was alleviated by glibenclamide pretreatment. Furthermore, in cardiomyocytes, ISO increased the efflux of potassium and the generation of ROS, which are recognized as activators of the NLRP3 inflammasome. The ISO-induced increases in these processes were inhibited by glibenclamide pretreatment. Moreover, glibenclamide inhibited the cAMP/PKA signalling pathway, which is downstream of β-AR, by increasing phosphodiesterase activity in mouse hearts and cardiomyocytes. In conclusion, glibenclamide alleviates β-AR overactivation-induced cardiac inflammation by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome. The underlying mechanism involves glibenclamide-mediated suppression of potassium efflux and ROS generation by inhibiting the cAMP/PKA pathway.

Dopamine D1/D5 Receptor Signaling Is Involved in Arrhythmogenesis in the Setting of Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 8:777463. [PMID: 35187102 PMCID: PMC8855058 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2021.777463] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2021] [Accepted: 12/29/2021] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Previous studies suggested involvement of non-ß-adrenoceptors in the pathogenesis of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC). This study was designed to explore possible roles and underlying mechanisms of dopamine D1/D5 receptor coupled signaling in arrhythmogenesis of TTC. Methods Human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) were challenged by toxic concentration of epinephrine (Epi, 0.5 mM for 1 h) for mimicking the catecholamine excess in setting of TTC. Specific receptor blockers and activators were used to unveil roles of D1/D5 receptors. Patch clamp, qPCR, and FACS analyses were performed in the study. Results High concentration Epi and two dopamine D1/D5 receptor agonists [(±)-SKF 38393 and fenoldopam] reduced the depolarization velocity and prolonged the duration of action potentials (APs) and caused arrhythmic events in iPSC-CMs, suggesting involvement of dopamine D1/D5 receptor signaling in arrhythmogenesis associated with QT interval prolongation in the setting of TTC. (±)-SKF 38393 and fenoldopam enhanced the reactive oxygen species (ROS)-production. H2O2 (100 μM) recapitulated the effects of (±)-SKF 38393 and fenoldopam on APs and a ROS-blocker N-acetylcysteine (NAC, 1 mM) abolished the effects, suggesting that the ROS-signaling is involved in the dopamine D1/D5 receptor actions. A NADPH oxidases blocker and a PKA- or PKC-blocker suppressed the effects of the dopamine receptor agonist, implying that PKA, NADPH oxidases and PKC participated in dopamine D1/D5 receptor signaling. The abnormal APs resulted from dopamine D1/D5 receptor activation-induced dysfunctions of ion channels including the Na+ and L-type Ca2+ and IKr channels. Conclusions Dopamine D1/D5 receptor signaling plays important roles for arrhythmogenesis of TTC. Dopamine D1/D5 receptor signaling in cardiomyocytes might be a potential target for treating arrhythmias in patients with TTC.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of the lead exposure-induced oxidative stress and apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells. We explored the effects of lead acetate (PbAc) on the oxidation and apoptosis of renal proximal tubular cells (NRK-52E) through in vitro experiments. Results showed that PbAc induced dose-dependent reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in NRK-52E cells, and the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione (GSH) decreased, whereas the malondialdehyde (MDA) content increased. Under the exposure of 40 and 80 μM PbAc, the mRNA level of B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) in the cells decreased, the mRNA levels of Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax) and caspase-3 increased, and apoptosis was obvious. Furthermore, the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase 4 (Nox4) activity was enhanced by PbAc in a dose-dependent manner. The mRNA levels of protein kinase A (PKA) were upregulated by PbAc. H-89, a PKA inhibitor, suppressed PKA activation, ROS accumulation, and Nox4 activity in NRK-52E cells. Our results indicated that PbAc potentially stimulated oxidative stress and apoptosis in NRK-52E cells by increasing Nox4-dependent ROS production via the PKA signaling pathway.

Abstract
In plants, 3´,5´-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is an important second messenger with varied functions; however, only a few adenylyl cyclases (ACs) that synthesize cAMP have been identified. Moreover, the biological roles of ACs/cAMP in response to stress remain largely unclear. In this study, we used quantitative proteomics techniques to identify a maize heat-induced putative disease-resistance RPP13-like protein 3 (ZmRPP13-LK3), which has three conserved catalytic AC centres. The AC activity of ZmRPP13-LK3 was confirmed by in vitro enzyme activity analysis, in vivo RNAi experiments, and functional complementation in the E. coli cyaA mutant. ZmRPP13-LK3 is located in the mitochondria. The results of in vitro and in vivo experiments indicated that ZmRPP13-LK3 interacts with ZmABC2, a possible cAMP exporter. Under heat stress, the concentrations of ZmRPP13-LK3 and cAMP in the ABA-deficient mutant vp5 were significantly less than those in the wild-type, and treatment with ABA and an ABA inhibitor affected ZmRPP13-LK3 expression in the wild-type. Application of 8-Br-cAMP, a cAMP analogue, increased heat-induced expression of heat-shock proteins in wild-type plants and alleviated heat-activated oxidative stress. Taken together, our results indicate that ZmRPP13-LK3, a new AC, can catalyse ATP for the production of cAMP and may be involved in ABA-regulated heat resistance.

Abstract
The treatment of pediatric heart failure is a long-standing unmet medical need. Angiotensin II supports mammalian perinatal circulation by activating cardiac L-type Ca2+ channels through angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT1R) and β-arrestin. TRV027, a β-arrestin-biased AT1R agonist, that has been reported to be safe but not effective for adult patients with heart failure, activates the AT1R/β-arrestin pathway. We found that TRV027 evokes a long-acting positive inotropic effect specifically on immature cardiac myocytes through the AT1R/β-arrestin/L-type Ca2+ channel pathway with minimum effect on heart rate, oxygen consumption, reactive oxygen species production, and aldosterone secretion. Thus, TRV027 could be utilized as a valuable drug specific for pediatric heart failure.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species participate in regulating intracellular signaling pathways. Herein, we investigated the reported opposite effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) on metabolic signaling mediated by activated α1 - and β-adrenoceptors (ARs) in hepatocytes. In isolated rat hepatocytes, stimulation of α1 -AR increases H2 O2 production via NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) activation. We find that the H2 O2 thus produced is essential for α1 -AR-mediated activation of the classical hepatic glycogenolytic, gluconeogenic, and ureagenic responses. However, H2 O2 inhibits β-AR-mediated activation of these metabolic responses. We show that H2 O2 mediates its effects on α1 -AR and β-AR by permeating cells through aquaporin 8 (AQP8) channels and promoting Ca2+ mobilization. Thus, our findings reveal a novel NOX2-H2 O2 -AQP8-Ca2+ signaling cascade acting downstream of α1 -AR in hepatocytes, which, by negatively regulating β-AR signaling, establishes negative crosstalk between the two pathways.

Induction of caveolin-3/eNOS complex by nitroxyl (HNO) ameliorates diabetic cardiomyopathy. Redox Biol 2020; 32:101493.

Abstract
Nitroxyl (HNO), one-electron reduced and protonated sibling of nitric oxide (NO), is a potential regulator of cardiovascular functions. It produces positive inotropic, lusitropic, myocardial anti-hypertrophic and vasodilator properties. Despite of these favorable actions, the significance and the possible mechanisms of HNO in diabetic hearts have yet to be fully elucidated. H9c2 cells or primary neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes were incubated with normal glucose (NG) or high glucose (HG). Male C57BL/6 mice received intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ) to induce diabetes. Here, we demonstrated that the baseline fluorescence signals of HNO in H9c2 cells were reinforced by both HNO donor Angeli's salt (AS), and the mixture of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) donor sodium hydrogen sulfide (NaHS) and NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP), but decreased by HG. Pretreatment with AS significantly reduced HG-induced cell vitality injury, apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and hypertrophy in H9c2 cells. This effect was mediated by induction of caveolin-3 (Cav-3)/endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase (eNOS) complex. Disruption of Cav-3/eNOS by pharmacological manipulation or small interfering RNA (siRNA) abolished the protective effects of AS in HG-incubated H9c2 cells. In STZ-induced diabetic mice, administration of AS ameliorated the development of diabetic cardiomyopathy, as evidenced by improved cardiac function and reduced cardiac hypertrophy, apoptosis, oxidative stress and myocardial fibrosis without affecting hyperglycemia. This study shed light on how interaction of NO and H2S regulates cardiac pathology and provide new route to treat diabetic cardiomyopathy with HNO.

Sodium potassium ATPase (NKA) expression and activity are often regulated by angiotensin II (Ang II). This study is aimed at investigating whether DR-Ab, an antibody against 4th extracellular region of NKA, can protect Ang II-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Our results showed that Ang II treatment significantly reduced NKA activity and membrane expression. Pretreatment with DR-Ab preserved cell size in Ang II-induced cardiomyopathy by stabilizing the plasma membrane expression of NKA and restoring its activity. DR-Ab reduced intracellular ROS generation through inhibition of NADPH oxidase activity and protection of mitochondrial functions in Ang II-treated H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Pharmacological manipulation and Western blotting analysis demonstrated the cardioprotective effects were mediated by the activation of the AMPK/Sirt-3/PPARγ signaling pathway. Taken together, our results suggest that dysfunction of NKA is an important mechanism for Ang II-induced cardiomyopathy and DR-Ab may be a novel and promising therapeutic approach to treat cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.

Abstract
Mitochondrial biogenesis is a complex process. It requires the contribution of both the nuclear and the mitochondrial genomes and therefore cross talk between the nucleus and mitochondria. Cellular energy demand can vary by great length and it is now well known that one way to adjust adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthesis to energy demand is through modulation of mitochondrial content in eukaryotes. The knowledge of actors and signals regulating mitochondrial biogenesis is thus of high importance. Here, we review the regulation of mitochondrial biogenesis both in yeast and in mammalian cells through mitochondrial reactive oxygen species.

Abstract
Mitochondrial regulation of energy production, calcium homeostasis, and cell death are critical for cardiac function. Accordingly, the structural and functional abnormalities of these organelles (mitochondrial dysfunction) contribute to developing cardiovascular diseases and heart failure. Therefore the preservation of mitochondrial integrity is essential for cardiac cell survival. Mitochondrial function is regulated by several proteins, including GRK2 and β-arrestins which act in a GPCR independent manner to orchestrate intracellular signaling associated with key mitochondrial processes. It is now ascertained that GRK2 is able to recover mitochondrial function in response to insults. β-arrestins affect several intracellular signaling pathways within the cell which in turn are involved in the regulation of mitochondrial function, but a direct regulation of mitochondria needs further investigations. In this review, we discuss the recent acquisitions on the role of GRK2 and β-arrestins in the regulation of mitochondrial function.

Abstract
Sudden cardiac death from ventricular arrhythmias is more common in adult patients with with heart failure compared with pediatric patients with heart failure. We identified age-specific differences in arrhythmogenesis using a guinea pig model of acute β-adrenergic stimulation. Young and adult guinea pigs were exposed to the β-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol (ISO; 0.7 mg/kg) for 30 min in the absence or presence of flecainide (20 mg/kg), an antiarrhythmic that blocks Na+ and ryanodine channels. Implanted cardiac monitors (Reveal LINQ, Medtronic) were used to monitor heart rhythm. Alterations in phosphorylation and oxidation of ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) were measured in left ventricular tissue. There were age-specific differences in arrhythmogenesis and sudden death associated with acute β-adrenergic stimulation in guinea pigs. Young and adult guinea pigs developed arrhythmias in response to ISO; however, adult animals developed significantly more premature ventricular contractions and experienced higher arrhythmia-related mortality than young guinea pigs treated with ISO. Although there were no significant differences in the phosphorylation of left ventricular RyR2 between young and adult guinea pigs, adult guinea pigs exposed to acute ISO had significantly more oxidation of RyR2. Flecainide treatment significantly improved survival and decreased the number of premature ventricular contractions in young and adult animals in association with lower RyR2 oxidation. Adult guinea pigs had a greater propensity to develop arrhythmias and suffer sudden death than young guinea pigs when acutely exposed to ISO. This was associated with higher oxidation of RyR2. The incidence of sudden death can be rescued with flecainide treatment, which decreases RyR2 oxidation. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Clinically, adult patients with heart failure are more likely to develop arrhythmias and sudden death than pediatric patients with heart failure. In the present study, older guinea pigs also showed a greater propensity to arrhythmias and sudden death than young guinea pigs when acutely exposed to isoproterenol. Although there are well-described age-related cardiac structural changes that predispose patients to arrhythmogenesis, the present data suggest contributions from dynamic changes in cellular signaling also play an important role in arrhythmogenesis.

Abstract
Mitochondria are key organelles for cellular homeostasis. They generate the most part of ATP that is used by cells through oxidative phosphorylation. They also produce reactive oxygen species, neurotransmitters and other signaling molecules. They are important for calcium homeostasis and apoptosis. Considering the role of this organelle, it is not surprising that most mitochondrial dysfunctions are linked to the development of pathologies. Various mechanisms adjust mitochondrial activity according to physiological needs. The cAMP-PKA signaling emerged in recent years as a direct and powerful mean to regulate mitochondrial functions. Multiple evidence demonstrates that such pathway can be triggered from cytosol or directly within mitochondria. Notably, specific anchor proteins target PKA to mitochondria whereas enzymes necessary for generation and degradation of cAMP are found directly in these organelles. Mitochondrial PKA targets proteins localized in different compartments of mitochondria, and related to various functions. Alterations of mitochondrial cAMP-PKA signaling affect the development of several physiopathological conditions, including neurodegenerative diseases. It is however difficult to discriminate between the effects of cAMP-PKA signaling triggered from cytosol or directly in mitochondria. The specific roles of PKA localized in different mitochondrial compartments are also not completely understood. The aim of this work is to review the role of cAMP-PKA signaling in mitochondrial (patho)physiology.
