Abstract
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a clinical syndrome characterized by pulmonary and systemic congestion resulting from left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and increased filling pressure. Currently, however, there is no evidence on effective pharmacotherapy for HFpEF. In this study, we aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of total xanthones extracted from Gentianella acuta (TXG) on HFpEF by establishing an high-fat diet (HFD) + L-NAME-induced mouse model. Echocardiography was employed to assess the impact of TXG on the cardiac function in HFpEF mice. Haematoxylin and eosin staining, wheat germ agglutinin staining, and Masson's trichrome staining were utilized to observe the histopathological changes following TXG treatment. The results demonstrated that TXG alleviated HFpEF by reducing the expressions of genes associated with myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis and apoptosis. Furthermore, TXG improved cardiomyocyte apoptosis by inhibiting the expression of apoptosis-related proteins. Mechanistic investigations revealed that TXG could activate the inositol-requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α)/X-box-binding protein 1 (Xbp1s) signalling pathway, but the knockdown of IRE1α using the IRE1α inhibitor STF083010 or siRNA-IRE1α impaired the ability of TXG to ameliorate cardiac remodelling in HFpEF models. In conclusion, TXG alleviates myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis and apoptosis through the activation of the IRE1α/Xbp1s signalling pathway, suggesting its potential beneficial effects on HFpEF patients.

Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction in the Elderly Population: Basic Mechanisms and Clinical Considerations. Can J Cardiol 2024:S0828-282X(24)00302-7. [PMID: 38604339 DOI: 10.1016/j.cjca.2024.04.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2024] [Revised: 04/04/2024] [Accepted: 04/06/2024] [Indexed: 04/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) refers to a clinical condition in which the signs of heart failure, such as pulmonary congestion, peripheral edema, and increased natriuretic peptide levels, are present despite normal ejection fractions and the absence of other causes (eg, pericardial disease). The ejection fraction cutoff for the definition of HFpEF has varied in the past, but recent society guidelines have settled on a consensus of 50%. HFpEF is particularly common in the elderly population. The aim of this narrative review is to summarize the available literature regarding HFpEF in elderly patients in terms of evidence for the age dependence, specific clinical features, and underlying mechanisms. In the clinical arena, we review the epidemiology, discuss distinct clinical phenotypes typically seen in elderly patients, the importance of frailty, the role of biomarkers, and the role of medical therapies (including sodium-glucose cotransport protein 2 inhibitors, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system blockers, angiotensin receptor/neprilysin inhibitors, diuretics, and β-adrenergic receptor blockers). We then go on to discuss the basic mechanisms implicated in HFpEF, including cellular senescence, fibrosis, inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, enhanced production of reactive oxygen species, abnormal cellular calcium handling, changes in microRNA signalling, insulin resistance, and sex hormone changes. Finally, we review knowledge gaps and promising areas of future investigation. Improved understanding of the specific clinical manifestations of HFpEF in elderly individuals and of the fundamental mechanisms that contribute to the age-related risk of HFpEF promises to lead to novel diagnostic and treatment approaches that will improve outcomes for this common cardiac disorder in a vulnerable population.

Abstract
Heart failure (HF) caused by structural or functional cardiac abnormalities is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. While HF with reduced ejection fraction (HErEF) is well understood, more than half of patients have HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Currently, the treatment for HFpEF primarily focuses on symptom alleviation, lacking specific drugs. The stressed heart undergoes metabolic switches in substrate preference, which is a compensatory process involved in cardiac pathological remodeling. Although metabolic reprogramming in HF has gained attention in recent years, its role in HFpEF still requires further elucidation. In this review, we present a summary of cardiac mitochondrial dysfunction and cardiac metabolic reprogramming in HFpEF. Additionally, we emphasize potential therapeutic approaches that target metabolic reprogramming for the treatment of HFpEF.

Abstract
The progression of heart failure is reported to be strongly associated with homeostatic imbalance, such as mitochondrial dysfunction and abnormal autophagy, in the cardiomyocytes. Mitochondrial dysfunction triggers autophagic and cardiac dysfunction. In turn, abnormal autophagy impairs mitochondrial function and leads to apoptosis or autophagic cell death under certain circumstances. These events often occur concomitantly, forming a vicious cycle that exacerbates heart failure. However, the role of the crosstalk between mitochondrial dysfunction and abnormal autophagy in the development of heart failure remains obscure and the underlying mechanisms are mainly elusive. The potential role of the link between mitochondrial dysfunction and abnormal autophagy in heart failure progression has recently garnered attention. This review summarized recent advances of the interactions between mitochondria and autophagy during the development of heart failure.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an age-related progressive neurodegenerative disease, and approximately 10% of AD cases are early-onset familial AD (EOFAD), which is mainly linked to point mutations in genes encoding presenilins (PS1 and PS2). Mutations in PS2 are extremely rare and have not received enough attention. Recently, studies have found that Rho GTPase activity is closely related to the pathogenesis of AD. In this study, we used transcriptome sequencing in PS2 siRNA-transfected SH-SY5Y cells and found a group of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) related to the regulation of GTPase activity. Among those DEGs, the most significantly downregulated was Rho guanine nucleotide exchange factor 5 (ARHGEF5). GTPase activity in PS2 siRNA-transfected cells was significantly decreased. Then, we found that the expression of ARHGEF5 and the GTPase activity of Mitochondrial Rho GTPase 2 (Miro2) in PS2 D439A mutant SH-SY5Y cells were significantly decreased. We found for the first time that PS2 can bind to Miro2, and the PS2 D439A mutation reduced the binding between PS2 and Miro2, reduced the expression of Miro2, and resulted in an imbalance in mitochondrial fusion/fission dynamics. In conclusion, PS2 gene knockdown may participate in the pathogenesis of AD through the regulation of GTPase activity. The imbalance in mitochondrial dynamics mediated by the PS2 D439A mutation through regulation of the expression and GTPase activity of Miro2 may be a potential pathogenic mechanism of AD.

M-type pyruvate kinase 2 (PKM2) tetramerization alleviates the progression of right ventricle failure by regulating oxidative stress and mitochondrial dynamics. J Transl Med 2023; 21:888.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Right ventricle failure (RVF) is a progressive heart disease that has yet to be fully understood at the molecular level. Elevated M-type pyruvate kinase 2 (PKM2) tetramerization alleviates heart failure, but detailed molecular mechanisms remain unclear. OBJECTIVE We observed changes in PKM2 tetramerization levels during the progression of right heart failure and in vitro cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and explored the causal relationship between altered PKM2 tetramerization and the imbalance of redox homeostasis in cardiomyocytes, as well as its underlying mechanisms. Ultimately, our goal was to propose rational intervention strategies for the treatment of RVF. METHOD We established RVF in Sprague Dawley (SD) rats by intraperitoneal injection of monocrotaline (MCT). The pulmonary artery pressure and right heart function of rats were assessed using transthoracic echocardiography combined with right heart catheterization. TEPP-46 was used both in vivo and in vitro to promote PKM2 tetramerization. RESULTS We observed that oxidative stress and mitochondrial disorganization were associated with increased apoptosis in the right ventricular tissue of RVF rats. Quantitative proteomics revealed that PKM2 was upregulated during RVF and negatively correlated with the cardiac function. Facilitating PKM2 tetramerization promoted mitochondrial network formation and alleviated oxidative stress and apoptosis during cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. Moreover, enhancing PKM2 tetramer formation improved cardiac mitochondrial morphology, mitigated oxidative stress and alleviated heart failure. CONCLUSION Disruption of PKM2 tetramerization contributed to RVF by inducing mitochondrial fragmentation, accumulating ROS, and finally promoted the progression of cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Facilitating PKM2 tetramerization holds potential as a promising therapeutic approach for RVF.

Cardiomyocyte NOX4 regulates resident macrophage-mediated inflammation and diastolic dysfunction in stress cardiomyopathy. Redox Biol 2023; 67:102937.

Abstract
In acute sympathetic stress, catecholamine overload can lead to stress cardiomyopathy. We tested the hypothesis that cardiomyocyte NOX4 (NADPH oxidase 4)-dependent mitochondrial oxidative stress mediates inflammation and diastolic dysfunction in stress cardiomyopathy. Isoproterenol (ISO; 5 mg/kg) injection induced sympathetic stress in wild-type and cardiomyocyte (CM)-specific Nox4 knockout (Nox4CM-/-) mice. Wild-type mice treated with ISO showed higher CM NOX4 expression, H2O2 levels, inflammasome activation, and IL18, IL6, CCL2, and TNFα levels than Nox4CM-/- mice. Spectral flow cytometry and t-SNE analysis of cardiac cell suspensions showed significant increases in pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic embryonic-derived resident (CCR2-MHCIIhiCX3CR1hi) macrophages in wild-type mice 3 days after ISO treatment, whereas Nox4CM-/- mice had a higher proportion of embryonic-derived resident tissue-repair (CCR2-MHCIIloCX3CR1lo) macrophages. A significant increase in cardiac fibroblast activation and interstitial collagen deposition and a restrictive pattern of diastolic dysfunction with increased filling pressure was observed in wild-type hearts compared with Nox4CM-/- 7 days post-ISO. A selective NOX4 inhibitor, GKT137831, reduced myocardial mitochondrial ROS, macrophage infiltration, and fibrosis in ISO-injected wild-type mice, and preserved diastolic function. Our data suggest sympathetic overstimulation induces resident macrophage (CCR2-MHCII+) activation and myocardial inflammation, resulting in fibrosis and impaired diastolic function mediated by CM NOX4-dependent ROS.

Abstract
Cancer remains the leading cause of death around the world. In cancer treatment, over 50% of cancer patients receive radiotherapy alone or in multimodal combinations with other therapies. One of the adverse consequences after radiation exposure is the occurrence of radiation-induced tissue fibrosis (RIF), which is characterized by the abnormal activation of myofibroblasts and the excessive accumulation of extracellular matrix. This phenotype can manifest in multiple organs, such as lung, skin, liver and kidney. In-depth studies on the mechanisms of radiation-induced fibrosis have shown that a variety of extracellular signals such as immune cells and abnormal release of cytokines, and intracellular signals such as cGAS/STING, oxidative stress response, metabolic reprogramming and proteasome pathway activation are involved in the activation of myofibroblasts. Tissue fibrosis is extremely harmful to patients' health and requires early diagnosis. In addition to traditional serum markers, histologic and imaging tests, the diagnostic potential of nuclear medicine techniques is emerging. Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant therapies are the traditional treatments for radiation-induced fibrosis. Recently, some promising therapeutic strategies have emerged, such as stem cell therapy and targeted therapies. However, incomplete knowledge of the mechanisms hinders the treatment of this disease. Here, we also highlight the potential mechanistic, diagnostic and therapeutic directions of radiation-induced fibrosis.

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia and its prevalence increases with age. The irregular and rapid contraction of the atria can lead to ineffective blood pumping, local blood stasis, blood clots, ischemic stroke, and heart failure. NADPH oxidases (NOX) and mitochondria are the main sources of reactive oxygen species in the heart, and dysregulated activation of NOX and mitochondrial dysfunction are associated with AF pathogenesis. NOX- and mitochondria-derived oxidative stress contribute to the onset of paroxysmal AF by inducing electrophysiological changes in atrial myocytes and structural remodeling in the atria. Because high atrial activity causes cardiac myocytes to expend extremely high energy to maintain excitation-contraction coupling during persistent AF, mitochondria, the primary energy source, undergo metabolic stress, affecting their morphology, Ca2+ handling, and ATP generation. In this review, we discuss the role of oxidative stress in activating AF-triggered activities, regulating intracellular Ca2+ handling, and functional and anatomical reentry mechanisms, all of which are associated with AF initiation, perpetuation, and progression. Changes in the extracellular matrix, inflammation, ion channel expression and function, myofibril structure, and mitochondrial function occur during the early transitional stages of AF, opening a window of opportunity to target NOX and mitochondria-derived oxidative stress using isoform-specific NOX inhibitors and mitochondrial ROS scavengers, as well as drugs that improve mitochondrial dynamics and metabolism to treat persistent AF and its transition to permanent AF.

Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound of different intensities differently affects myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury by modulating cardiac oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1248056. [PMID: 37744362 PMCID: PMC10513435 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1248056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction The prevalence of ischemic heart disease has reached pandemic levels worldwide. Early revascularization is currently the most effective therapy for ischemic heart diseases but paradoxically induces myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury. Cardiac inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress are primarily involved in the pathology of MI/R injury. Low-intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been demonstrated to reduce cell injury by protecting against inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress in many diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, but rarely on MI/R injury. Methods This study was designed to clarify whether LIPUS alleviates MI/R injury by alleviating inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress. Simultaneously, we have also tried to confirm which intensity of the LIPUS might be more suitable to ameliorate the MI/R injury, as well as to clarify the signaling mechanisms. MI/R and simulated ischemia/reperfusion (SI/R) were respectively induced in Sprague Dawley rats and human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hPSC-CMs). LIPUS treatment, biochemical measurements, cell death assay, estimation of cardiac oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction, and protein detections by western blotting were performed according to the protocol. Results In our study, both in vivo and in vitro, LIPUS of 0.1 W/cm2 (LIPUS0.1) and 0.5 W/cm2 (LIPUS0.5) make no significant difference in the cardiomyocytes under normoxic condition. Under the hypoxic condition, MI/R injury, inflammatory reaction, and oxidative stress were partially ameliorated by LIPUS0.5 but were significantly aggravated by LIPUS of 2.5 W/cm2 (LIPUS2.5) both in vivo and in vitro. The activation of the apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1)/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway in cardiomyocytes with MI/R injury was partly rectified LIPUS0.5 both in vivo and in vitro. Conclusion Our study firstly demonstrated that LIPUS of different intensities differently affects MI/R injury by regulating cardiac inflammatory reaction and oxidative stress. Modulations on the ASK1/JNK pathway are the signaling mechanism by which LIPUS0.5 exerts cardioprotective effects. LIPUS0.5 is promising for clinical translation in protecting against MI/R injury. This will be great welfare for patients suffering from MI/R injury.

Abstract
As important organelles of energetic and metabolism, changes in the dynamic state of mitochondria affect the homeostasis of cellular metabolism. Mitochondrial dynamics include mitochondrial fusion and mitochondrial fission. The former is coordinated by mitofusin-1 (Mfn1), mitofusin-2 (Mfn2), and optic atrophy 1 (Opa1), and the latter is mediated by dynamin related protein 1 (Drp1), mitochondrial fission 1 (Fis1) and mitochondrial fission factor (MFF). Mitochondrial fusion and fission are generally in dynamic balance and this balance is important to preserve the proper mitochondrial morphology, function and distribution. Diabetic conditions lead to disturbances in mitochondrial dynamics, which in return causes a series of abnormalities in metabolism, including decreased bioenergy production, excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), defective mitophagy and apoptosis, which are ultimately closely linked to multiple chronic complications of diabetes. Multiple researches have shown that the incidence of diabetic complications is connected with increased mitochondrial fission, for example, there is an excessive mitochondrial fission and impaired mitochondrial fusion in diabetic cardiomyocytes, and that the development of cardiac dysfunction induced by diabetes can be attenuated by inhibiting mitochondrial fission. Therefore, targeting the restoration of mitochondrial dynamics would be a promising therapeutic target within type II diabetes (T2D) and its complications. The molecular approaches to mitochondrial dynamics, their impairment in the context of T2D and its complications, and pharmacological approaches targeting mitochondrial dynamics are discussed in this review and promise benefits for the therapy of T2D and its comorbidities.

Abstract
The advent of BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) targeted therapy revolutionized the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients. Mitochondria are the key organelles for the maintenance of myocardial tissue homeostasis. However, cardiotoxicity associated with BCR-ABL1 TKIs can directly or indirectly cause mitochondrial damage and dysfunction, playing a pivotal role in cardiomyocytes homeostatic system and putting the cancer survivors at higher risk. In this review, we summarize the cardiotoxicity caused by BCR-ABL1 TKIs and the underlying mechanisms, which contribute dominantly to the damage of mitochondrial structure and dysfunction: endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, mitochondrial stress, damage of myocardial cell mitochondrial respiratory chain, increased production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS), and other kinases and other potential mechanisms of cardiotoxicity induced by BCR-ABL1 TKIs. Furthermore, detection and management of BCR-ABL1 TKIs will promote our rational use, and cardioprotection strategies based on mitochondria will improve our understanding of the cardiotoxicity from a mitochondrial perspective. Ultimately, we hope shed light on clinical decision-making. By integrate and learn from both research and practice, we will endeavor to minimize the mitochondria-mediated cardiotoxicity and reduce the adverse sequelae associated with BCR-ABL1 TKIs.

Abstract
Oxytetracycline (OTC), a commonly used tetracycline antibiotic in aquaculture, has been found to cause significant damage to the liver of largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides). This study revealed that OTC can lead to severe histopathological damage, structural changes at the cellular level, and increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in M. salmoides. Meanwhile, OTC impairs the activities of antioxidant enzyme (such as T-SOD, CAT, GST, GR) by suppressing the activation of MAPK/Nrf2 pathway. OTC disrupts mitochondrial dynamics and mitophagy through via PINK1/Parkin pathway. The accumulation of damaged mitochondria, combined with the inhibition of the antioxidant enzyme system, contributes to elevated ROS levels and oxidative liver damage in M. salmoides. Further investigations demonstrated that an enzyme-treated soy protein (ETSP) dietary supplement can help maintain mitochondrial dynamic balance by inhibiting the PINK1/Parkin pathway and activate the MAPK/Nrf2 pathway to counteract oxidative damage. In summary, these findings highlight that exposure to OTC disrupts mitochondrial dynamics and inhibits the antioxidant enzyme system, ultimately exacerbating oxidative liver damage in M. salmoides. We propose the use of a dietary supplement as a preventive measure against OTC-related side effects, providing valuable insights into the mechanisms of antibiotic toxicity in aquatic environments.

J Am Heart Assoc 2023; 12:e029470. [PMID: 37119063 PMCID: PMC10227223 DOI: 10.1161/jaha.123.029470] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2023] [Accepted: 03/30/2023] [Indexed: 04/30/2023]
Abstract
Background Catestatin has been reported as a pleiotropic cardioprotective peptide. Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) was considered a heterogeneous syndrome with a complex cause. We sought to investigate the role of catestatin in HFpEF and diastolic dysfunction. METHODS AND RESULTS Administration of recombinant catestatin (1.5 mg/kg/d) improved diastolic dysfunction and left ventricular chamber stiffness in transverse aortic constriction mice with deoxycorticosterone acetate pellet implantation, as reflected by Doppler tissue imaging and pressure-volume loop catheter. Less cardiac hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis was observed, and transcriptomic analysis revealed downregulation of mitochondrial electron transport chain components after catestatin treatment. Catestatin reversed mitochondrial structural and respiratory chain component abnormality, decreased mitochondrial proton leak, and reactive oxygen species generation in myocardium. Excessive oxidative stress induced by Ru360 abolished catestatin treatment effects on HFpEF-like cardiomyocytes in vitro, indicating the beneficial role of catestatin in HFpEF as a mitochondrial ETC modulator. The serum concentration of catestatin was tested among 81 patients with HFpEF and 76 non-heart failure controls. Compared with control subjects, serum catestatin concentration was higher in patients with HFpEF and positively correlated with E velocity to mitral annular e' velocity ratio, indicating a feedback compensation role of catestatin in HFpEF. Conclusions Catestatin protects against diastolic dysfunction in HFpEF through attenuating mitochondrial electron transport chain-derived reactive oxygen species generation. Serum catestatin concentration is elevated in patients with HFpEF, probably as a relatively insufficient but self-compensatory mechanism.
