Table_13_Diagnostic potential of energy metabolism-related genes in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.xlsx

BackgroundHeart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is associated with changes in cardiac metabolism that affect energy supply in the heart. However, there is limited research on energy metabolism-related genes (EMRGs) in HFpEF.MethodsThe HFpEF mouse dataset (GSE180065, containing heart tissues from 10 HFpEF and five control samples) was sourced from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Gene expression profiles in HFpEF and control groups were compared to identify differentially expressed EMRGs (DE-EMRGs), and the diagnostic biomarkers with diagnostic value were screened using machine learning algorithms. Meanwhile, we constructed a biomarker-based nomogram model for its predictive power, and functionality of diagnostic biomarkers were conducted using single-gene gene set enrichment analysis, drug prediction, and regulatory network analysis. Additionally, consensus clustering analysis based on the expression of diagnostic biomarkers was utilized to identify differential HFpEF-related genes (HFpEF-RGs). Immune microenvironment analysis in HFpEF and subtypes were performed for analyzing correlations between immune cells and diagnostic biomarkers as well as HFpEF-RGs. Finally, qRT-PCR analysis on the HFpEF mouse model was used to validate the expression levels of diagnostic biomarkers.ResultsWe selected 5 biomarkers (Chrna2, Gnb3, Gng7, Ddit4l, and Prss55) that showed excellent diagnostic performance. The nomogram model we constructed demonstrated high predictive power. Single-gene gene set enrichment analysis revealed enrichment in aerobic respiration and energy derivation. Further, various miRNAs and TFs were predicted by Gng7, such as Gng7-mmu-miR-6921-5p, ETS1-Gng7. A lot of potential therapeutic targets were predicted as well. Consensus clustering identified two distinct subtypes of HFpEF. Functional enrichment analysis highlighted the involvement of DEGs-cluster in protein amino acid modification and so on. Additionally, we identified five HFpEF-RGs (Kcnt1, Acot1, Kcnc4, Scn3a, and Gpam). Immune analysis revealed correlations between Macrophage M2, T cell CD4+ Th1 and diagnostic biomarkers, as well as an association between Macrophage and HFpEF-RGs. We further validated the expression trends of the selected biomarkers through experimental validation.ConclusionOur study identified 5 diagnostic biomarkers and provided insights into the prediction and treatment of HFpEF through drug predictions and network analysis. These findings contribute to a better understanding of HFpEF and may guide future research and therapy development.</p

Table5_ATF3 promotes ferroptosis in sorafenib-induced cardiotoxicity by suppressing Slc7a11 expression.XLSX

Sorafenib is the unique recommended molecular-targeted drug for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, but its clinical use is limited due to cardiotoxicity. As sorafenib is an efficient ferroptosis inducer, the pathogenesis of this compound to ferroptosis-mediated cardiotoxicity is worth further study. Mice were administered 30 mg/kg sorafenib intraperitoneally for 2 weeks to induce cardiac dysfunction and Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) was used to reduce ferroptosis of mice with sorafenib-induced cardiotoxicity. Sorafenib reduced levels of anti-ferroptotic markers involving Slc7a11 and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), increased malonaldehyde malondialdehyde, apart from causing obvious mitochondria damage, which was alleviated by Fer-1. In vitro experiments showed that Fer-1 inhibited lipid peroxidation and injury of H9c2 cardiomyoblasts induced by sorafenib. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments confirmed that the expression of Slc7a11 was down regulated in sorafenib-induced cardiotoxicity, which can be partially prevented by treatment with Fer-1. Overexpression of Slc7a11 protected cells from ferroptosis, while knock-down of Slc7a11 made cardiomyoblasts sensitive to ferroptosis caused by sorafenib. Finally, by comparing data from the GEO database, we found that the expression of ATF3 was significantly increased in sorafenib treated human cardiomyocytes. In addition, we demonstrated that ATF3 suppressed Slc7a11 expression and promoted ferroptosis. Based on these findings, we concluded that ATF3/Slc7a11 mediated ferroptosis is one of the key mechanisms leading to sorafenib-induced cardiotoxicity. Targeting ferroptosis may be a novel therapeutic approach for preventing sorafenib-induced cardiotoxicity in the future.</p
