AIMS: The calcineurin and nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) pathway can mediate pro-hypertrophic signalling in the heart. Recently, it has been shown that dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A) phosphorylates NFAT, which limits calcineurin/NFAT signal transduction in T cells and hypertrophy in cultured cardiomyocytes. The hypothesis tested in this study was that DYRK1A prevents calcineurin/NFAT-mediated cardiac hypertrophy in vivo.
METHODS AND RESULTS: In cultured rat cardiomyocytes, adenovirus-mediated overexpression of DYRK1A antagonized calcineurin-mediated nuclear NFAT translocation and the phenylephrine-induced hypertrophic growth response. To test the ability of DYRK1A to reduce hypertrophic cardiac growth in vivo, we created tetracycline-repressible Dyrk1a transgenic mice to avoid the cardiac developmental defects associated with embryonic DYRK1A expression. However, in the mouse model, histological determination of myocyte diameter, heart weight/body weight ratio, and echocardiographic measurements revealed that myocardial expression of DYRK1A failed to reduce hypertrophy induced via aortic banding or co-expression of calcineurin. This discrepancy is explained, at least in part, by insufficient long-term inhibition of NFAT and the activation of DYRK1A-resistant maladaptive genes in vivo.
CONCLUSION: Isolated augmentation of DYRK1A can be compensated for in vivo, and this may significantly limit anti-hypertrophic interventions aimed at enhancing DYRK1A activity.
