摘要
Objective C1q/tumour necrosis factor-related protein 12 (CTRP12) is closely related to coronary artery disease and has an outstanding cardioprotective effect. However, whether CTRP12 participates in heart failure (HF) has not been well studied. This work aimed to explore the role and mechanism of CTRP12 in post-myocardial infarction (MI) HF. Methods Rats were subjected to left anterior descending artery ligation and then raised for six weeks to establish post-MI HF. Recombinant adeno-associated virus-mediated gene transfer was applied to overexpress or silence CTRP12 in rat hearts. RT-qPCR, Immunoblot, Echocardiography, Haematoxylin–eosin (HE) staining, Masson’s trichrome staining, TUNEL staining and ELISA were carried out. Results CTRP12 levels were decreased in the hearts of rats with post-MI HF. The overexpression of CTRP12 improved cardiac function and attenuated cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis in rats with post-MI HF. CTRP12 silencing exacerbated cardiac dysfunction, hypertrophy and fibrosis in rats with post-MI HF. The cardiac apoptosis, oxidative stress and inflammatory response induced by post-MI HF were weakened by CTRP12 overexpression or aggravated by CTRP12 silencing. CTRP12 inhibited the activation of the transforming growth factor‐β activated kinase 1 (TAK1)-p38 mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK)/c‐Jun N‐terminal kinase (JNK) pathway in the hearts of rats with post-MI HF. Treatment with the TAK1 inhibitor reversed the adverse effects of CTRP12 silencing on post-MI HF. Conclusions CTRP12 protects against post-MI HF by modulating the TAK1-p38 MAPK/JNK pathway. CTRP12 may be a therapeutic target for the treatment of post-MI HF.
