| Popis | Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) caused by autosomal-dominant mutations in genes coding for structural sarcomeric proteins, is the most common inherited heart disease. HCM is associated with myocardial hypertrophy, fibrosis and ventricular dysfunction. Hypoxia-inducible transcription factor-1? (Hif-1?) is the central master regulators of cellular hypoxia response and associated with HCM. Yet its exact role remains to be elucidated. Therefore, the effect of a cardiomyocyte-specific Hif-1a knockout (cHif1aKO) was studied in an established ?-MHC719/+ HCM mouse model that exhibits the classical features of human HCM. The results show that Hif-1? protein and HIF targets were upregulated in left ventricular tissue of ?-MHC719/+ mice. Cardiomyocyte-specific abolishment of Hif-1a blunted the disease phenotype, as evidenced by decreased left ventricular wall thickness, reduced myocardial fibrosis, disordered SRX/DRX state and ROS production. cHif1aKO induced normalization of pro-hypertrophic and pro-fibrotic left ventricular remodeling signaling evidenced on whole transcriptome and proteomics analysis in ?-MHC719/+ mice. Proteomics of serum samples from patients with early onset HCM revealed significant modulation of HIF. These results demonstrate that HIF signaling is involved in mouse and human HCM pathogenesis. Cardiomyocyte-specific knockout of Hif-1a attenuates disease phenotype in the mouse model. Targeting Hif-1? might serve as a therapeutic option to mitigate HCM disease progression. |
