چکیده انگلیسی
The coxsackie-adenovirus receptor (CAR) is an adhesion molecule found at the intercalated disc of cardiomyocytes in association with other adherens and tight junction proteins. CAR expression is increased at cardiomyocyte junctions in patients with heart failure. It is not known what contribution elevated CAR expression makes to cardiac pathology. We generated a binary transgenic mouse enabling cardiac-restricted doxycycline-regulated expression of Flag-tagged murine CAR (mCAR+/αMtTA+ mice). Myocardial CAR levels were increased 6-fold in mCAR+/αMtTA+ mice, localizing to intercalated discs and sarcolemma. Well at birth, mCAR+/αMtTA+ mice developed a severe cardiomyopathy and died by 4 weeks. Cardiomyocyte hypertrophy was evident at 1 week, with increased heart:body weight ratios by 3 weeks. Disorganization and degeneration of cardiomyocytes were evident with disrupted adherens junctions. Doxycycline administration turned off transgene expression and rescued mice from the development of the cardiomyopathic phenotype. In CAR-overexpressing mCAR+/αMtTA+ mice, adherens junction proteins were abnormally expressed. N-cadherin protein levels were 83% lower in mCAR+/αMtTA+ hearts vs controls at 1 week, with levels subsequently increased above controls at 3 weeks. β-catenin expression was 90% and 135% above controls at 1 and 3 weeks, respectively. Nuclear translocation of β-catenin in cardiomyocytes of mCAR+/αMtTA+ mice was associated with increased c-myc RNA, a target of active β-catenin known to be associated with cardiac hypertrophy. Our study is the first to demonstrate that increased CAR expression can induce a cardiomyopathy and supports a model whereby the pathogenesis is determined by CAR stimulated β-catenin signaling, and/or disruption of the adherens junction.
