Mild hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy via up-regulation of HIF-1α-mediated TRPC signalling
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) is a central transcriptional regulator of hypoxic response. The present study was designed to investigate the role of HIF-1α in mild hypoxia-induced cardiomyocytes hypertrophy and its underlying mechanism. Mild hypoxia (MH, 10% O(2)) caused hypertrophy in cultured neonatal rat cardiac myocytes, which was accompanied with increase of HIF-1α mRNA and accumulation of HIF-1α protein in nuclei. Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels including TRPC3 and TRPC6, except for TRPC1, were increased, and Ca(2+)-calcineurin signals were also enhanced in a time-dependent manner under MH condition. MH-induced cardiomyocytes hypertrophy, TRPC up-regulation and enhanced Ca(2+)-calcineurin signals were inhibited by an HIF-1α specific blocker, SC205346 (30 μM), whereas promoted by HIF-1α overexpression. Electrophysiological voltage-clamp demonstrated that DAG analogue, OAG (30 μM), induced TRPC current by as much as 170% in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes overexpressing HIF-1α compared to negative control. These results implicate that HIF-1α plays a key role in development of cardiac hypertrophy in responses to hypoxic stress. Its mechanism is associated with up-regulating TRPC3, TRPC6 expression, activating TRPC current and subsequently leading to enhanced Ca(2+)-calcineurin signals.

AIMS Previously we demonstrated that both hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) and bone morphogenetic protein-4 (BMP4) up-regulate transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) 1 and TRPC6, resulting in increased basal intracellular Ca(2+) concentration ([Ca(2+)]i) in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs), driving development of chronic hypoxia (CH)-induced pulmonary hypertension (CHPH)...

BACKGROUND Notch1 is a potent regulator known to play an oncogenic role in many malignancies including T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). Tumor hypoxia and increased hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) activity can act as major stimuli for tumor aggressiveness and progression. Although hypoxia-mediated activation of the Notch1 pathway plays an important role in tumor cell survival an...
متن کاملHIF-1-mediated up-regulation of cardiotrophin-1 is involved in the survival response of cardiomyocytes to hypoxia.
AIMS Cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1) is a cytokine of the interleukin-6 superfamily which is up-regulated in cardiac diseases, in part via hypoxia-dependent mechanisms. However, no evidence for a direct regulation of CT-1 gene (CTF1) promoter by hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) has been provided. METHODS AND RESULTS Hypoxia increased CT-1 mRNA levels in the murine adult cardiomyocyte cell line HL-1 ...

The tumor suppressor adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is mutated in the majority of colorectal cancers and is best known for its role as a scaffold in a Wnt-regulated protein complex that determines the availability of β-catenin. Another common feature of solid tumors is the presence of hypoxia as indicated by the up-regulation of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) such as HIF-1α. Here, we demons...
