Cardiac myocyte p38α kinase regulates angiogenesis via myocyte-endothelial cell cross-talk during stress-induced remodeling in the heart

Abstract: Stress-induced p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activity is implicated in pathological remodeling in the heart. For example, constitutive p38 MAPK activation in cardiomyocytes induces pathological features, including myocyte hypertrophy, apoptosis, contractile dysfunction, and fetal gene expression. However, the physiological function of cardiomyocyte p38 MAPK activity in beneficial compensatory vascular remodeling is unclear. This report investigated the functional role and the underlying mechanism… Show more

“…Canonically, growth factors such as VEGF activate a broad range of pathways including Akt (protein kinase B), endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), and p38 MAPK to promote EC functions that are necessary for successful angiogenesis. In particular, p38 phosphorylation and signaling have been shown to promote angiogenesis in response to myocardial damage, cardiac remodeling, and peripheral tissue ischemia (16, 17). Collectively, these data suggest that correction of pathways downstream of growth factor activation can rescue proangiogenic responses and improve therapeutic angiogenesis.…”

“…However, IL4 is an anti-in ammatory cytokine that inhibits the expression and release of in ammatory cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6, and TNF-α [43][44]. Szkodzinski et al [45] have determined prognostic implications of IL-4 in developing severe cardiac dysfunction in the course of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). In addition, AKT1 is the main isomer in vascular endothelial cells, which plays a crucial role in cardiac growth, contraction and coronary angiogenesis [46].…”

“…Since endothelial cell activation proceeding to endothelial dysfunction was commonly observed, endothelial activation / dysfunction has been studied as two converging concepts. The influence and regulation of endothelial activation / dysfunction has been strongly correlated with the pathogenesis of complex disease processes such as diabetes (Jia et al, 2017, Watt et al, 2017, maladaptive cardiac remodelling (Rose et al, 2017, Tsai et al, 2017, and atherosclerosis (Corban et al, 2017).…”

“…There is evidence that cardiac angiogenesis is enhanced during the acute phase of adaptive cardiac growth (e.g., in endurance athletes) but reduced as hearts undergo pathological remodelling. Enhanced angiogenesis in adaptive remodelling was associated with myocardial VEGF and angiopoietin-2 release, whereas inhibition of VEGF in maladaptive remodelling led to decreased capillary density and impaired cardiac function (Shiojima et al, 2005, Rose et al, 2017. NO production also plays a critical role in the mechanism that couples cardiac angiogenesis to cardiomyocyte growth.…”
