چکیده

Heat shock protein (HSP) 60 is a mitochondrial and cytosolic protein. Previously, we reported that HSP60 doubled in end-stage heart failure, even though levels of the protective HSP72 were unchanged. Furthermore, we observed that acute injury in adult cardiac myocytes resulted in movement of HSP60 to the plasma membrane. We hypothesized that the inflammatory state of heart failure would cause translocation of HSP60 to the plasma membrane and that this would provide a pathway for cardiac injury. Two models were used to test this hypothesis: 1) a rat model of heart failure and 2) human explanted failing hearts. We found that HSP60 localized to the plasma membrane and was also found in the plasma early in heart failure. Plasma membrane HSP60 localized to lipid rafts and was detectable on the cell surface with the use of both flow cytometry and confocal microscopy. Localization of HSP60 to the cell surface correlated with increased apoptosis. In heart failure, HSP60 is in the plasma membrane fraction, on the cell surface, and in the plasma. Membrane HSP60 correlated with increased apoptosis. Release of HSP60 may activate the innate immune system, promoting a proinflammatory state, including an increase in TNF-alpha. Thus abnormal trafficking of HSP60 to the cell surface may be an early trigger for myocyte loss and the progression of heart failure.

Neonatal Death and Heart Failure in Mouse with Transgenic HSP60 Expression

Mitochondrial heat shock proteins, such as HSP60, are chaperones responsible for the folding, transport, and quality control of mitochondrial matrix proteins and are essential for maintaining life. Both prosurvival and proapoptotic roles have been proposed for HSP60, and HSP60 is reportedly involved in the initiation of autoimmune, metabolic, and cardiovascular diseases. The role of HSP60 in pa...

Extracellular heat shock protein 60, cardiac myocytes, and apoptosis.

RATIONALE Previously, we have found that changes in the location of intracellular heat shock protein (HSP)60 are associated with apoptosis. HSP60 has been reported to be a ligand of toll-like receptor (TLR)-4. OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that extracellular HSP60 (exHSP60) would mediate apoptosis via TLR4. METHODS AND RESULTS Adult rat cardiac myocytes were treated with HSP60, either recombina...

Future perspectives and potential implications of cardiac myocyte apoptosis.

Recent advances in the understanding of the molecular mechanisms of apoptosis has gained increasing interest in the cardiovascular research community. Apoptotic myocyte loss has been detected in different cardiac disease states such as ischemic heart disease and congestive heart failure. In addition, some evidence for the molecular mechanisms in cardiac myocyte apoptosis has been evolving, alth...

NFATc3 and NFATc4 are required for cardiac development and mitochondrial function.

Activation of the nuclear factor of activated T-cell (NFAT) family of transcription factors is associated with changes in gene expression and myocyte function in adult cardiac and skeletal muscle. However, the role of NFATs in normal embryonic heart development is not well characterized. In this report, the function of NFATc3 and NFATc4 in embryonic heart development was examined in mice with t...

A mechanistic role for cardiac myocyte apoptosis in heart failure.

Heart failure is a common, lethal condition whose pathogenesis is poorly understood. Recent studies have identified low levels of myocyte apoptosis (80-250 myocytes per 10(5) nuclei) in failing human hearts. It remains unclear, however, whether this cell death is a coincidental finding, a protective process, or a causal component in pathogenesis. Using transgenic mice that express a conditional...
