Fetal growth restriction programs an increased risk of cardiovascular disease in adulthood, but the actual mechanisms of this developmental programming are not fully understood. Previous studies in mammalian models suggest that hearts of growth-restricted fetuses have reduced cardiomyocyte number due to reduced proliferation and premature cardiomyocyte maturation. Chicken embryos incubated unde...
This study examined the hypothesis that cardiomyocyte metabolism is inherently linked to the Ubiquitin Proteasome System. Rat neonatal ventricular cardiomyocytes were pulse-treated with 5 αM lactacystin for 30 min, resulting in 95% loss of proteasome activity, and then maintained in culture for up to 24 h. Pulse-treatment resulted in 36% decrease in cardiomyocyte mitochondrial reductase activit...
We previously demonstrated that bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) induce cardiomyocyte differentiation through the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase TAK1. Transcription factors Smads mediate transforming growth factor-beta signaling and the ATF/CREB family transcription factor ATF-2 has recently been shown to act as a common target of the Smad and the TAK1 pathways. We here examin...
OBJECTIVES This study was performed to determine the degree and time course over 6 years of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and myocardial fibrosis of the cardiac allograft in transplanted patients. BACKGROUND Diastolic dysfunction and to a certain extent systolic dysfunction are common cardiac findings after heart transplantation. The development of posttransplant cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and myo...
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been cited as contributors to heart repair through cardiogenic differentiation and multiple cellular interactions, including the paracrine effect, cell fusion, and mechanical and electrical couplings. Due to heart-muscle complexity, progress in the development of knowledge concerning the role of MSCs in cardiac repair is heavily based on MSC-cardiomyocyte cocu...
Hypertension-induced cardiac hypertrophy and attenuated cardiac function are the major characteristics of early stage heart failure. Cardiomyocyte death in pathological cardiac conditions is the primary cause of heart failure and mortality. Our previous studies found that heat shock factor 1 (HSF1) protected cardiomyocytes from death by suppressing the IGF-IIR signaling pathway, which is critic...
OBJECTIVE During diabetes mellitus, coronary lipoprotein lipase increases to promote the predominant use of fatty acids. We have reported that high glucose stimulates active heparanase secretion from endothelial cells to cleave cardiomyocyte heparan sulfate and release bound lipoprotein lipase for transfer to the vascular lumen. In the current study, we examined whether heparanase also has a fu...
Dexamethasone treatment of newborn rats inhibited cardiomyocyte proliferation and stimulated premature terminal differentiation of cardiomyocytes in the developing heart. Yet mechanisms remain undetermined. The present study tested the hypothesis that the direct effect of glucocorticoid receptor-mediated epigenetic repression of cyclin D2 gene in the cardiomyocyte plays a key role in the dexame...
AIMS Proteasome inhibitors are a novel class of anticancer agents that induce tumour cell death via endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Since ER stress is involved in the development of heart failure, we investigated the role of ER-initiated cardiomyocyte death by proteasome inhibition. METHODS AND RESULTS Rat neonatal cardiomyocytes were used in this study. Proteasome activity was assayed usi...
Unlike its mammalian counterpart, the adult zebrafish heart is able to fully regenerate after severe injury. One of the most important events during the regeneration process is cardiomyocyte proliferation, which results in the replacement of lost myocardium. Growth factors that induce cardiomyocyte proliferation during zebrafish heart regeneration remain to be identified. Signaling pathways imp...
