RESUMO

Histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) is known to deacetylate amino acid lysine in alpha-tubulin. However, the functional role of HDAC6 in the progression of cardiac disease remains uncertain. The functional role of HDAC6 in the hearts was examined using transgenic (TG) mice expressing either human wild-type HDAC6, deacetylase inactive HDAC6 (HDAC6H216A, H611A), and human HDAC6 replaced all serine or threonine residues with aspartic acid at N-terminal 1- 43 amino acids (HDAC6NT-allD) specifically in the hearts. Overexpression of wild-type HDAC6 significantly reduced acetylated tubulin levels, and overexpression of HDAC6H216A, H611A significantly increased it in the mouse hearts. Detectable acetylated tubulin disappeared in HDAC6NT-allD TG mouse hearts. Neither histological alteration nor alteration of cardiac function was observed in the HDAC6 TG mouse hearts. To analyze the role of HDAC6 and acetylated tubulin in disease conditions, we examined HDAC6 in isoprenaline-induced hypertrophy or pressure-overload hypertrophy (TAC). No obvious alteration in the heart weight/body weight ratio or gene expressions of hypertrophic markers between NTG and HDAC6NT-allD mice was observed following treatment with isoprenaline. In contrast, a marked reduction in the shortening fraction and dilated chamber dilatation was detected in the HDAC6NT-allD TG mouse hearts 2 weeks after TAC. A sustained low level of acetylated tubulin and acetylated cortactin was observed in the TAC HDAC6NT-allD TG mouse hearts. Cardiac HDAC6 activity that can regulate acetylated levels of tubulin and cortactin may be critical factors involved in cardiac disease such as pressure-overload hypertrophy.

RESUMO

Bcl-2-associated athanogene 3 (BAG3) is strongly expressed in both cardiac and skeletal muscle. A recent study showed that BAG3 may play a protective role in muscles. Little is known, however, regarding the detailed role of BAG3 in cardiac muscle. To better understand the functional role of cardiac BAG3 in the heart, we generated transgenic (TG) mice that overexpress BAG3. A decrease in fractional shortening, and the induction of cardiac atrial natriuretic peptide, were observed in BAG3 TG mice. Moreover, a marked reduction in the protein level of small HSPs was detected in BAG3 TG mouse hearts. We analyzed the cardiac small HSP levels when either the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) or the autophagy system (AS) was inhibited in BAG3 TG mice. The protein turnovers of small HSPs by the AS were activated in BAG3 TG mouse hearts. Thus, BAG3 is critical for the protein turnover of small HSPs via activation of autophagy in the heart.
