AbstractThyroid hormone-induced cardiac hypertrophy is similar to that observed in physiological hypertrophy, which is associated with high cardiac contractility and increased α-myosin heavy chain (α-MHC, the high ATPase activity isoform) expression. In contrast, angiotensin II (Ang II) induces an increase in myocardial mass with a compromised contractility accompanied by a shift from oc-MHC to the fetal isoform β-MHC (the low ATPase activity isoform), which is considered as a pathological hypertrophy and inevitably leads to the development of heart failure. The present study is designed to assess the effect of thyroid hormone on angiotensin II-induced hypertrophic growth of cardiomyocytes in vitro. Cardiomyocytes were prepared from hearts of neonatal Wistar rats. The effects of Ang II and 3,3′,5-triiodo-thyronine (T 3) on incorporations of [3H]-thymine and [ 3H]-leucine, MHC isoform mRNA expression, PKC activity, and PKC isoform protein expression were studied. Ang II enhanced [3H]-leucine incorporation, β-MHC mRNA expression, PKC activity, and PKCε expression and inhibited α-MHC mRNA expression in cardiomyocytes. T 3 treatment prevented Ang II-induced increases in PKC activity, PKCε, and β-MHC mRNA overexpression and favored α-MHC mRNA expression. Thyroid hormone appears to be able to reprogram gene expression in Ang II-induced cardiac hypertrophy, and a PKC signal pathway may be involved in such remodeling process. © 2006 NRC Canada.
