- W2884597465 abstract "Activation of the β-adrenergic pathway results in an increase in cAMP which plays a key role in the regulation of cardiac contraction. While an acute stimulation of the β-adrenergic receptors (β-ARs) improves cardiac function, their chronic activation in heart failure (HF) is detrimental to the heart, as it promotes deregulation of intracellular calcium handling and maladaptive remodeling. Multiple phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are responsible for cAMP degradation and compartmentation, and therefore finely tune β-AR responses. We showed previously that PDE4B is decreased in pathological cardiac hypertrophy and PDE4B ablation in mice exacerbates β-AR stimulation of the L-type Ca2+ current and the propensity to cardiac arrhythmias. Since long term treatment with PDE inhibitors increases mortality in HF, we hypothesized that decreasing cAMP levels could have a therapeutic effect in this disease. To address this hypothesis we used two different models: transgenic overexpression of the PDE using the cardiac specific promoter α-MHC, and PDE-encoding adeno-associated virus targeting the heart in adult mice. We explored whether transgenic or serotype 9 adeno-associated viral vectors (AAV9) mediated cardiac overexpression of PDE4B could prevent maladaptive hypertrophy in a mouse model of chronic isoproterenol (Iso) infusion (60 µg/g/day during 2 weeks). Echocardiography allowed cardiac function exploration. PDE4B protein expression in heart extracts was measured by western blot. Heart sections (10 µm thick) were cut from paraffin-embedded specimens and stained with Masson’s trichrome to quantify fibrosis. A ten-fold and five-fold increase in PDE4B protein levels was measured in transgenic and AAV9, respectively. In transgenic mice, constitutive PDE4B overexpression caused a mild hypertrophy in adult mice. In control mice, either wild-type or injected with a AAV9 encoding for (1x1012 vp), chronic Iso treatment induced cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, and decreased ejection fraction (EF) measured by echocardiography. Overexpression of PDE4B did not prevent cardiac hypertrophy induced by Iso, but abolished the increase in fibrosis. More importantly, EF was preserved when PDE4B was overexpressed in this pathological model. Altogether, these results suggest that gene therapy with AAV9 encoding PDEs is a potential therapeutic approach for cardiac maladaptive hypertrophy." @default.
