Noninvasive Diagnosis of the Mitochondrial Function of Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiomyopathy Using In Vivo Dynamic Nuclear Polarization-Magnetic Resonance Imaging. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11081454. [PMID: 35892655 PMCID: PMC9331045 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11081454] [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: 06/25/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) induces dose-dependent cardiotoxicity via oxidative stress and abnormal mitochondrial function in the myocardium. Therefore, a noninvasive in vivo imaging procedure for monitoring the redox status of the heart may aid in monitoring diseases and developing treatments. However, an appropriate technique has yet to be developed. In this study, we demonstrate a technique for detecting and visualizing the redox status of the heart using in vivo dynamic nuclear polarization–magnetic resonance imaging (DNP–MRI) with 3-carbamoyl-PROXYL (CmP) as a molecular imaging probe. Male C57BL/6N mice were administered DOX (20 mg/kg) or saline. DNP–MRI clearly showed a slower DNP signal reduction in the DOX group than in the control group. Importantly, the difference in the DNP signal reduction rate between the two groups occurred earlier than that detected by physiological examination or clinical symptoms. In an in vitro experiment, KCN (an inhibitor of complex IV in the mitochondrial electron transport chain) and DOX inhibited the electron paramagnetic resonance change in H9c2 cardiomyocytes, suggesting that the redox metabolism of CmP in the myocardium is mitochondrion-dependent. Therefore, this molecular imaging technique has the potential to monitor the dynamics of redox metabolic changes in DOX-induced cardiomyopathy and facilitate an early diagnosis of this condition.

Abstract
The heart is the first organ to acquire its physiological function during development, enabling it to supply the organism with oxygen and nutrients. Given this early commitment, cardiomyocytes were traditionally considered transcriptionally stable cells fully committed to contractile function. However, growing evidence suggests that the maintenance of cardiac function in health and disease depends on transcriptional and epigenetic regulation. Several studies have revealed that the complex transcriptional alterations underlying cardiovascular disease (CVD) manifestations such as myocardial infarction and hypertrophy is mediated by cardiac retinoid X receptors (RXR) and their partners. RXRs are members of the nuclear receptor (NR) superfamily of ligand-activated transcription factors and drive essential biological processes such as ion handling, mitochondrial biogenesis, and glucose and lipid metabolism. RXRs are thus attractive molecular targets for the development of effective pharmacological strategies for CVD treatment and prevention. In this review, we summarize current knowledge of RXR partnership biology in cardiac homeostasis and disease, providing an up-to-date view of the molecular mechanisms and cellular pathways that sustain cardiomyocyte physiology.

Abstract
Retinoid X receptors (RXRs) are members of ligand-dependent transcription factors whose effects on a diversity of cellular processes, including cellular proliferation, the immune response, and lipid and glucose metabolism. Knock out of RXRα causes a hypoplasia of the myocardium which is lethal during fetal life. In addition, the heart maintains a well-orchestrated balances in utilizing fatty acids (FAs) and other substrates to meet the high energy requirements. As the master transcriptional regulators of lipid metabolism, RXRs become particularly important for the energy needs of the heart. Accumulating evidence suggested that RXRs may exert direct beneficial effects in the heart both through heterodimerization with other nuclear receptors (NRs) and homodimerization, thus standing as suitable targets for treating in cardiovascular diseases. Although compounds that target RXRs are promising drugs, their use is limited by toxicity. A better understanding of the structural biology of RXRs in cardiovascular disease should enable the rational design of more selective nuclear receptor modulators to overcome these problems. Here, this review summarizes a brief overview of RXRs structure and versatility of RXR action in the control of cardiovascular diseases. And we also discussed the therapeutic potential of RXR ligand.

Identification of the active compounds and drug targets of Chinese medicine in heart failure based on the PPARs-RXRα pathway. JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2020; 257:112859. [PMID: 32294506 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2020.112859] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2020] [Revised: 04/06/2020] [Accepted: 04/06/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Danqi Pill (DQP), commonly known as a routinely prescribed traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), is composed of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma and effective in treating heart failure (HF) clinically due to their multicompound and multitarget properties. However, the exact active compounds and corresponding targets of DQP are still unknown. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to investigate active compounds and drug targets of DQP in heart failure based on the PPARs-RXRα pathway. MATERIALS AND METHODS Network pharmacology was used to predict the compound-target interactions of DQP. Left anterior descending (LAD)-induced HF mouse model and oxygen-glucose deprivation/recovery (OGD/R)-induced H9C2 model were constructed to screen the active compounds of DQP. RESULTS According to BATMAN-TCM (a bioinformatics analysis tool for molecular mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine we previously developed), 24 compounds in DQP were significantly enriched in the peroxisome proliferator activated receptors-retinoid X receptor α (PPARs-RXRα) pathway. Among them, Ginsenoside Rb3 (G-Rb3) had the best pharmacodynamics against OGD/R-induced loss of cell viability, and it was selected to verify the compound-target interaction. In HF mice, G-Rb3 protected cardiac functions and activated the PPARs-RXRα pathway. In vitro, G-Rb3 protected against OGD/R-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, promoted the expressions of RXRα and sirtuin 3 (SIRT3), thereafter improved the intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) level. Immunofluorescent staining demonstrated that G-Rb3 could activate RXRα, and facilitate RXRα shifting to the nucleus. HX531, the specific inhibitor of RXRα, could abolish the protective effects of G-Rb3 on RXRα translocation. Consistently, the effect was also confirmed on RXRα siRNA cardiomyocytes model. Moreover, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assays identified that G-Rb3 bound directly to RXRα with the affinity of KD = 10 × 10-5 M. CONCLUSION By integrating network pharmacology and experimental validation, we identified that as the major active compound of DQP, G-Rb3 could ameliorate ROS-induced energetic metabolism dysfunction, maintain mitochondrial function and facilitate energy metabolism via directly targeting on RXRα. This study provides a promising strategy to dissect the effective patterns for TCM and finally promote the modernization of TCM.

Abstract
Genetic and nongenetic factors are involved in the individual ability to physiologically acclimatize to high-altitude hypoxia through processes that include increased heart rate and ventilation. High-altitude acclimatization is thought to have a genetic component, yet it is unclear if other factors, such as epigenetic gene regulation, are involved in acclimatization to high-altitude hypoxia in nonacclimatized individuals. We collected saliva samples from a group of healthy adults of European ancestry (n = 21) in Kathmandu (1,400 m; baseline) and three altitudes during a trek to the Everest Base Camp: Namche (3,440 m; day 3), Pheriche (4,240 m; day 7), and Gorak Shep (5,160 m; day 10). We used quantitative bisulfite pyrosequencing to determine changes in DNA methylation, a well-studied epigenetic marker, in LINE-1, EPAS1, EPO, PPARa, and RXRa. We found significantly lower DNA methylation between baseline (1,400 m) and high altitudes in LINE-1, EPO (at 4,240 m only), and RXRa. We found increased methylation in EPAS1 (at 4,240 m only) and PPARa. We also found positive associations between EPO methylation and systolic blood pressure and RXRa methylation and hemoglobin. Our results show that incremental exposure to hypoxia can affect the epigenome. Changes to the epigenome, in turn, could underlie the process of altitude acclimatization.

Abstract
The implication of oxidative stress as primary mechanism inducing doxorubicin (DOX) cardiotoxicity is still questionable as many in vitro studies implied supra-clinical drug doses or unreliable methodologies for reactive oxygen species (ROS) detection. The aim of this study was to clarify whether oxidative stress is involved in compliance with the conditions of clinical use of DOX, and using reliable tools for ROS detection. We examined the cytotoxic mechanisms of 2 μM DOX 1 day after the beginning of the treatment in differentiated H9c2 rat embryonic cardiac cells. Cells were exposed for 2 or 24 h with DOX to mimic a single chronic dosage or to favor accumulation, respectively. We found that apoptosis was prevalent in cells exposed for a short period with DOX: cells showed typical hallmarks as loss of anchorage ability, mitochondrial hyperpolarization followed by the collapse of mitochondrial activity, and nuclear condensation. Increasing the exposure period favored a shift to necrosis as the cells preferentially exhibited early DNA impairment and nuclear swelling. In either case, measuring the fluorescence lifetime of 1-pyrenebutyric acid or the intensities of dihydroethidium or amplex red showed a consistent pattern in ROS production which was a slight increased level far from representative of an oxidative stress. Moreover, pre-treatment with dexrazoxane provided a cytoprotective effect although it failed to detoxify ROS. Our data support that oxidative stress is unlikely to be the primary mechanism of DOX cardiac toxicity in vitro.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to explore the effects of miR-139 on myocardial cell injury induced by oxidative stress and its mechanisms. METHODS H9c2 cells were used in this study. They were divided into control group, H2O2 group, H2O2+miR-139-5-p NC group and H2O2+miR-139-5-p mimics group. Cell activity was detected by MTT method. ROS level was detected by DCFH-DA probe method. MDA and SOD levels and Caspase 3 activity were detected by spectrophotometry. The cell apoptosis was detected by Hoechst 33342 and Annexin V-FITC/PI staining methods. The expression levels of AKT, GSK-3β, Bax and Bcl-2 were determined by Western blotting methods. RESULTS It showed that the activity of H9c2 cells decreased with the increase of the dose of H2O2. The activity of miR-139-5-p in H9c2 cells decreased after treatment of H2O2 for 6 h (P<0.01). Compared with control group, cell activity in H2O2 group and H2O2+miR-139-5-p NC group decreased (P<0.01), ROS fluorescence intensity increased (P<0.01), MDA content increased (P<0.01), SOD content decreased (P<0.01), apoptosis degree, Caspase 3 activity and Bax levels increased (P<0.01), Bcl-2, AKT and GSK-3β decreased (P<0.01). However, they were opposite in H2O2+miR-139-5-p mimics compared with H2O2 group and H2O2+miR-139-5-p NC group. CONCLUSIONS miR-139-5-p expressed low in oxidative stress of H9c2 cells induced by H2O2 and the oxidative stress injury could be inhibited after increasing the expression of miR-139-5-p, which could be related with the elimination of intracellular oxidative stress products and the resistance to apoptosis through AKT/GSK-3β signaling pathway.

Abstract
Patients with type 2 diabetes have a several-fold increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease when compared with nondiabetic controls. Myocardial infarction and stroke are responsible for 75% of all death in patients with diabetes, who present a 2-4× increased incidence of death from coronary artery disease. Patients with diabetes are considered for cardiovascular disease secondary prevention because their risk level is similar to that reported in patients without diabetes who have already suffered a myocardial infarction. More recently, with a better risk factors control, mainly in intensive LDL cholesterol targets with statins, a significant decrease in acute cardiovascular events was observed in population with diabetes. Together with other major risk factors, type 2 diabetes must be considered as an important cause of cardiovascular disease.Glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists represent a novel class of anti-hyperglycemic agents that have a cardiac-friendly profile, preserve neuronal cells and inhibit neuronal degeneration, an anti-inflammatory effect in liver protecting it against steatosis, increase insulin sensitivity, promote weight loss, and increase satiety or anorexia.This review is intended to rationally compile the multifactorial cardiovascular effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists available for the treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes.
