OBJECTIVE: Aberrant glucolipid metabolism in the heart is a characteristic factor in diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM). Super-enhancers-driven noncoding RNAs (seRNAs) are emerging as powerful regulators in the progression of cardiac diseases. However, the functions of seRNAs in DbCM have not been fully elucidated.
METHODS: Super enhancers and their associated seRNAs were screened and identified by H3K27ac ChIP-seq data in the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) dataset. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to analyze the function of super-enhancers on the transcription of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α-related seRNA (PPARα-seRNA). A DbCM mouse model was established using db/db leptin receptor-deficient mice. Adeno-associated virus serotype 9-seRNA (AAV9-seRNA) was injected via the tail vein to evaluate the role of seRNA in DbCM. The underlying mechanism was explored through RNA pull-down, RNA and chromatin immunoprecipitation, and chromatin isolation by RNA purification.
RESULTS: PPARα-seRNA was regulated by super-enhancers and its levels were increased in response to high glucose and palmitic acid stimulation in cardiomyocytes. Functionally, PPARα-seRNA overexpression aggravated lipid deposition, reduced glucose uptake, and repressed energy production. In contrast, PPARα-seRNA knockdown ameliorated metabolic disorder in vitro. In vivo, overexpression of PPARα-seRNA exacerbated cardiac metabolic disorder and deteriorated cardiac dysfunction, myocardial fibrosis, and hypertrophy in DbCM. Mechanistically, PPARα-seRNA bound to the histone demethylase KDM4B (Lysine-specific demethylase 4B) and decreased H3K9me3 levels in the promoter region of PPARα, ultimately enhancing its transcription.
CONCLUSIONS: Our study revealed the pivotal function of a super-enhancer-driven long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), PPARα-seRNA, in the deterioration of cardiac function and the exacerbation of metabolic abnormalities in diabetic cardiomyopathy, which recruited KDM4B to the promoter region of PPARα and repression of its transcription. This suggests a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of DbCM.
