Neuregulin-4 protects cardiomyocytes against high-glucose-induced ferroptosis via the AMPK/NRF2 signalling pathway.
Background: High glucose levels are key factors and key contributors to several cardiovascular diseases associated with cardiomyocyte injury. Ferroptosis, which was identified in recent years, is a mode of cell death caused by the iron-mediated accumulation of lipid peroxides. Neuregulin-4 (Nrg4) is an adipokine that has protective effects against metabolic disorders and insulin resistance. Our previous study revealed that Nrg4 has a protective effect against diabetic myocardial injury, and the aim of this study was to investigate whether Nrg4 could attenuate the occurrence of high glucose-induced ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes.
Methods: We constructed an in vivo diabetic myocardial injury model in which primary cardiomyocytes were cultured in vitro and treated with Nrg4. Changes in ferroptosis-related protein levels and ferroptosis-related indices in cardiomyocytes were observed. In addition, we performed back-validation and explored signalling pathways that regulate ferroptosis in primary cardiomyocytes.
Results: Nrg4 attenuated cardiomyocyte ferroptosis both in vivo and in vitro. Additionally, the AMPK/NRF2 signalling pathway was activated during this process, and when the AMPK/NRF2 pathway was inhibited, the beneficial effects of Nrg4 were attenuated.
Conclusion: Nrg4 antagonizes high glucose-induced ferroptosis in cardiomyocytes via the AMPK/NRF2 signalling pathway.
期刊介绍:
Biology Direct serves the life science research community as an open access, peer-reviewed online journal, providing authors and readers with an alternative to the traditional model of peer review. Biology Direct considers original research articles, hypotheses, comments, discovery notes and reviews in subject areas currently identified as those most conducive to the open review approach, primarily those with a significant non-experimental component.
