    Abstract Persistent oxidative stress and inflammation contribute causally to smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation and migration, the characteristic features of vascular proliferative diseases. Oxidatively modified low-density lipoproteins (OxLDL) elevate oxidative stress levels, inflammatory responses, and matrix metallopeptidase (MMP) activation, resulting ultimately in SMC migration, proliferation, and phenotype change. Reversion-inducing cysteine-rich protein with Kazal motifs (RECK) is a membrane-anchored MMP inhibitor. Empagliflozin is an SGLT2 inhibitor and exerts pleiotropic cardiovascular protective effects, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Here, we investigated (i) whether OxLDL regulates RECK expression, (ii) whether ectopic expression of RECK reverses OxLDL-induced SMC migration and proliferation, and (iii) whether pretreatment with empagliflozin reverses OxLDL-induced RECK suppression, MMP activation, and SMC migration, proliferation, and differentiation. Indeed, results show that OxLDL at pathophysiological concentration promotes SMC migration and proliferation via NF-

    Abstract Alcohol-induced cardiomyopathy (ACM) has a poor prognosis with up to a 50% chance of death within four years of diagnosis. There are limited studies investigating the potential of abstinence for promoting repair after alcohol-induced cardiac damage, particularly in a controlled preclinical study design. Here, we developed an exposure protocol that led to significant decreases in cardiac function in C57BL6/J mice within 30 days; dP/dt max decreased in the mice fed alcohol for 30 days (8054 ± 664.5 mmHg/s compared to control mice: 11,188 ± 724.2 mmHg/s,

    Abstract Adverse cardiac remodeling contributes to heart failure development and progression, partly due to inappropriate sympathetic nervous system activation. Although β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) blockade is a common heart failure therapy, not all patients respond, prompting exploration of alternative treatments. Minocycline, an FDA-approved antibiotic, has pleiotropic properties beyond antimicrobial action. Recent evidence suggests it may alter gene expression via changes in miRNA expression. Thus, we hypothesized that minocycline could prevent adverse cardiac remodeling induced by the β-AR agonist isoproterenol, involving miRNA-mRNA transcriptome alterations. Male C57BL/6J mice received isoproterenol (30 mg/kg/day sc) or vehicle via osmotic minipump for 21 days, along with daily minocycline (50 mg/kg ip) or sterile saline. Isoproterenol induced cardiac hypertrophy without altering cardiac function, which minocycline prevented. Total mRNA sequencing revealed isoproterenol altering gene networks associated with inflammation and metabolism, with fibrosis activation predicted by integrated miRNA-mRNA sequencing, involving miR-21, miR-30a, miR-34a, miR-92a, and miR-150, among others. Conversely, the cardiac miRNA-mRNA transcriptome predicted fibrosis inhibition in minocycline-treated mice, involving antifibrotic shifts in Atf3 and Itgb6 gene expression associated with miR-194 upregulation. Picrosirius red staining confirmed isoproterenol-induced cardiac fibrosis, prevented by minocycline. These results demonstrate minocycline's therapeutic potential in attenuating adverse cardiac remodeling through miRNA-mRNA-dependent mechanisms, especially in reducing cardiac fibrosis.

    Abstract Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a multimorbidity disorder ranging from excess accumulation of fat in the liver (steatosis) to steatohepatitis (NASH) and end-stage cirrhosis, and the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a subset of patients. The defining features of NASH are inflammation and progressive fibrosis. Currently, no pharmaceutical therapies are available for NAFLD, NASH and HCC; therefore, developing novel treatment strategies is desperately needed. Reversion Inducing Cysteine Rich Protein with Kazal motifs (RECK) is a well-known modifier of the extracellular matrix in hepatic remodeling and transition to HCC. More recently, its role in regulating inflammatory and fibrogenic processes has emerged. Here, we summarize the most relevant findings that extend our current understanding of RECK as a regulator of inflammation and fibrosis, and its induction as a potential strategy to blunt the development and progression of NASH and HCC.

    Abstract Cellular stress, arising from accumulation of unfolded proteins, occurs frequently in rapidly proliferating cancer cells. This cellular stress, in turn, activates the unfolded protein response (UPR), an interconnected set of signal transduction pathways that alleviate the proteostatic stress. The UPR is implicated in cancer cell survival and proliferation through upregulation of pro-tumorigenic pathways that ultimately promote malignant metabolism and neoangiogenesis. Here, we reviewed mechanisms of signaling crosstalk between the UPR and angiogenesis pathways, as well as transmissible ER stress and the role in tumor growth and development. To characterize differences in UPR and UPR-mediated angiogenesis in malignancy, we employed a data mining approach using patient tumor data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). The analysis of TCGA revealed differences in UPR between malignant samples versus their non-malignant counterparts.

    Abstract Minocycline, a tetracycline antibiotic, is known to exert vasculoprotective effects independent of its anti-bacterial properties; however the underlying molecular mechanisms are not completely understood. Reversion Inducing Cysteine Rich Protein with Kazal Motifs (RECK) is a cell surface expressed, membrane anchored protein, and its overexpression inhibits cancer cell migration. We hypothesized that minocycline inhibits platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-induced human aortic smooth muscle cell (SMC) proliferation and migration via RECK upregulation. Our data show that the BB homodimer of recombinant PDGF (PDGF-BB) induced SMC migration and proliferation, effects significantly blunted by pre-treatment with minocycline. Further investigations revealed that PDGF-BB induced PI3K-dependent AKT activation, ERK activation, reactive oxygen species generation, Nuclear Factor-κB and Activator Protein-1 activation, microRNA (miR)-221 and miR-222 induction, RECK suppression, and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP2 and 9) activation, effects that were reversed by minocycline. Notably, minocycline induced RECK expression dose-dependently within the therapeutic dose of 1-100 μM, and silencing RECK partially reversed the inhibitory effects of minocycline on PDGF-BB-induced MMP activation, and SMC proliferation and migration. Further, targeting MMP2 and MMP9 blunted PDGF-BB-induced SMC migration. Together, these results demonstrate that minocycline inhibits PDGF-BB-induced SMC proliferation and migration by restoring RECK, an MMP inhibitor. These results indicate that the induction of RECK is one of the mechanisms by which minocycline exerts vasculoprotective effects.

    Abstract Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) is associated with cardiac dysfunction and predictive of cardiac mortality in obesity, especially in females. Clinical data further support that CMD associates with development of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and that mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) antagonism may be more efficacious in obese female, versus male, HFpEF patients. Accordingly, we examined the impact of smooth muscle cell (SMC)-specific MR deletion on obesity-associated coronary and cardiac diastolic dysfunction in female mice. Obesity was induced in female mice via western diet (WD) feeding alongside littermates fed standard diet. Global MR blockade with spironolactone prevented coronary and cardiac dysfunction in obese females and specific deletion of SMC-MR was sufficient to prevent obesity-associated coronary and cardiac diastolic dysfunction. Cardiac gene expression profiling suggested reduced cardiac inflammation in WD-fed mice with SMC-MR deletion independent of blood pressure, aortic stiffening, and cardiac hypertrophy. Further mechanistic studies utilizing single-cell RNA sequencing of non-cardiomyocyte cell populations revealed novel impacts of SMC-MR deletion on the cardiac cellulome in obese mice. Specifically, WD feeding induced inflammatory gene signatures in non-myocyte populations including B/T cells, macrophages, and endothelium as well as increased coronary VCAM-1 protein expression, independent of cardiac fibrosis, that was prevented by SMC-MR deletion. Further, SMC-MR deletion induced a basal reduction in cardiac mast cells and prevented WD-induced cardiac pro-inflammatory chemokine expression and leukocyte recruitment. These data reveal a central role for SMC-MR signaling in obesity-associated coronary and cardiac dysfunction, thus supporting the emerging paradigm of a vascular origin of cardiac dysfunction in obesity.
