Inhibition of PFKFB3 Expression Stimulates Macrophage-Mediated Lymphangiogenesis Post-Acute Myocardial Infarction
Background: The dilation of lymphatic vessels plays a critical role in maintaining heart function, while a lack thereof could contribute to heart failure (HF), and subsequently to an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Macrophages participate in the induction of lymphangiogenesis by secreting vascular endothelial cell growth factor C (VEGF-C), although the precise mechanism remains unclear. Methods: Intramyocardial injections of adeno-associated viruses (AAV9) to inhibit the expression of VEGFR3 (VEGFR3 shRNA) or promote the expression of VEGFR3 (VEGFR3 ORF) in the heart; Myh6-mCherry B6 D2-tg mice and flow cytometry were used to evaluate the number of myocellular debris in the mediastinal lymph nodes; fluorescence staining and qPCR were used to evaluate fluorescence analysis; seahorse experiment was used to evaluate the level of glycolysis of macrophages; Lyz2𝐶𝑟𝑒, VEGFCfl/fl, and PFKFB3fl/fl mice were used as a model to knock out the expression of VEGF-C and PFKFB3 in macrophages. Results: The escalation of VEGFR3 in cardiac tissue can facilitate the drainage of myocardial debris to the mediastinal lymph nodes, thereby improving cardiac function and reducing fibrosis after reperfusion injury. Conversely, myeloid VEGF-C deficiency displayed an increase in macrophage counts and inflammation levels following reperfusion injury. The inhibition of the critical enzyme PFKFB3 in macrophage glycolysis can stimulate the manifestation of VEGF-C in macrophages. A deficiency in myeloid PFKFB3 is associated with induced lymphangiogenesis following reperfusion injury. Conclusions: Our initial investigations suggest that the suppression of PFKFB3 expression in macrophages could potentially stimulate the production of VEGF-C in these immune cells, which in turn may facilitate lymphangiogenesis and mitigate the inflammatory effects of I/R injury.
