Description

Medical application of Trim55 protein in preventing or treating heart failure after myocardial infarction
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of medicines, relates to a medical application of Trim55 (Tripartite motif containing, trim 55) containing a three-way motif, and in particular relates to a medical application of Trim55 protein in preventing or treating heart failure after myocardial infarction.
Background
Cardiovascular disease is one of the important diseases that seriously jeopardizes human health. The Chinese cardiovascular health and disease research report 2021 indicates that the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases in China is in a continuously rising stage, and cardiovascular disease death is the first leading cause of total death of urban and rural residents, wherein coronary atherosclerotic heart disease (coronary heart disease) is the disease with the highest prevalence. Myocardial Infarction (MI) is the most severe disease type in coronary heart disease, and MI mortality generally has a rapid rise since 2005. MI has a high incidence and mortality worldwide, severely threatening the health of humans. While percutaneous coronary intervention and thrombolytic therapy can save the life of the patient, clinical trials have shown that patients have poor long-term prognosis, most of which are Heart Failure (HF). Studies have shown that activation of inflammation, cardiomyocyte death and fibroblast proliferation can lead to myocardial fibrosis, thereby exacerbating the occurrence of post-MI HF, however, the key regulatory molecules and key mechanisms of post-MI HF are currently unknown, and there is a lack of effective targeted therapeutic drugs. Therefore, the occurrence mechanism of HF after MI is defined, and the search of a new control target point has important social significance and clinical significance.
In early stages after MI, the number of myocardial cells is reduced due to ischemia necrosis, and other myocardial cells undergo apoptosis under the action of injury factors such as oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction, so that myocardial cells are further reduced, and cardiac function is reduced to generate HF. Apoptosis is a central event in post-MI pathological processes. After MI, myocardial cells are ischemic and hypoxic, death receptors bind to ligands or mitochondria release cytochrome C to initiate apoptosis, causing activation of Caspase (Caspase) family 8 or 9, thereby causing a cascade of reactions, ultimately Caspase3 is activated, and an apoptosis program is performed. Studies have shown that the absence of Bax (a member of the Bcl-2 family that induces apoptosis) reduces infarct size and cardiac remodeling during MI. Thus, by elucidating the molecular mechanisms of myocardial apoptosis in cardiac remodeling, targeted therapeutic intervention may be an important research direction to improve post-myocardial infarction outcome.
Trim55 (Trim 55), an E3 ubiquitin ligase specific for heart and skeletal muscle, also known as MURF2 or RNF29, is a member of the Trims family, consisting of a zinc binding domain, a ring finger domain, a B box motif and a coiled coil domain. Trim55 is involved in early myofibrillar formation in physiological conditions, and its loop refers to the interaction of the B-box domain with the transactivation domain of Serum Response Factor (SRF) to inhibit SRF activity and nuclear localization, and to participate in and influence muscle cell transcription; as a main member in the development process of mouse heart embryo, plays a role in dynamic regulation. Previous studies have shown that Trim55 knockout mice develop severe hypertrophy and premature contractile dysfunction in a diabetic cardiomyopathy model, and that Trim55 inhibits cardiac hypertrophy after diabetes by ubiquitination of cardiac pparα and pparγ1 regulation; mice lacking Trim63 and Trim55 developed myocardial and skeletal muscle hypertrophy, but Trim55 knockout mice had no apparent myocardial hypertrophy in the aortic stenosis (TAC) induced myocardial hypertrophy model. Trim55 expression was significantly increased in chronic heart failure models and myocardial ischemia reperfusion models, and administration of overexpressed Trim55 after myocardial ischemia reperfusion could further promote myocardial apoptosis. However, the role and mechanism of Trim55 after MI is not yet clear. The role of Trim55 in MI and its mechanism are therefore worthy of intensive investigation.
