OBJECTIVE: In cases of heart failure, cardiac hypertrophy may be caused by the upregulation of G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2). Both NLRP3 inflammasome and oxidative stress contribute to cardiovascular disease. In this study, we clarified the effect of GRK2 on cardiac hypertrophy in H9c2 cells induced by isoproterenol (ISO) and examined the underlying mechanisms.
METHODS: We randomly categorized H9c2 cells into five groups: an ISO group, a paroxetine plus ISO group, a GRK2 small-interfering RNA (siRNA) plus ISO group, a GRK2 siRNA combined with ML385 plus ISO group, and a control group. To determine the effect of GRK2 on cardiac hypertrophy induced by ISO, we carried out CCK8 assays, RT-PCR, TUNEL staining, ELISA assay, DCFH-DA staining, immunofluorescence staining, and western blotting.
RESULTS: By using paroxetine or siRNA to inhibit GRK2, we significantly decreased cell viability; reduced the mRNA levels of ANP, BNP, and β-MHC; and limited the apoptosis rate and protein levels of cleaved caspase-3 and cytochrome c in H9c2 cells treated with ISO. We also found that oxidative stress induced by ISO could be mitigated with paroxetine or GRK2 siRNA. This result was validated by decreased activities of the antioxidant enzymes CAT, GPX, and SOD and increased MDA levels and ROS production. We observed that the protein expression of NLRP3, ASC, and caspase-1 and the intensity of NLRP3 could be inhibited by paroxetine or GRK2 siRNA. Both paroxetine and GRK2 siRNA were able to abolish the increase in GRK2 expression induced by ISO. They also could increase protein levels of HO-1, nuclear Nrf2, and Nrf2 immunofluorescence intensity; however, they could not change the protein level of cytoplasmic Nrf2. By combining treatment with ML385, we were able to reverse GRK2 inhibition on H9c2 cells treated with ISO.
CONCLUSION: According to the results of this study, GRK2 participated in cardiac hypertrophy induced by ISO by mitigating NLRP3 inflammasome and oxidative stress through the signaling of Nrf2 in H9c2 cells.
