RESUMEN

KV channel-interacting proteins (KChIP1-4) belong to a family of Ca2+-binding EF-hand proteins that are able to bind to the N-terminus of the KV4 channel α-subunits. KChIPs are predominantly expressed in the brain and heart, where they contribute to the maintenance of the excitability of neurons and cardiomyocytes by modulating the fast inactivating-KV4 currents. As the auxiliary subunit, KChIPs are critically involved in regulating the surface protein expression and gating properties of KV4 channels. Mechanistically, KChIP1, KChIP2, and KChIP3 promote the translocation of KV4 channels to the cell membrane, accelerate voltage-dependent activation, and slow the recovery rate of inactivation, which increases KV4 currents. By contrast, KChIP4 suppresses KV4 trafficking and eliminates the fast inactivation of KV4 currents. In the heart, IKs, ICa,L, and INa can also be regulated by KChIPs. ICa,L and INa are positively regulated by KChIP2, whereas IKs is negatively regulated by KChIP2. Interestingly, KChIP3 is also known as downstream regulatory element antagonist modulator (DREAM) because it can bind directly to the downstream regulatory element (DRE) on the promoters of target genes that are implicated in the regulation of pain, memory, endocrine, immune, and inflammatory reactions. In addition, all the KChIPs can act as transcription factors to repress the expression of genes involved in circadian regulation. Altered expression of KChIPs has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several neurological and cardiovascular diseases. For example, KChIP2 is decreased in failing hearts, while loss of KChIP2 leads to increased susceptibility to arrhythmias. KChIP3 is increased in Alzheimer's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, but decreased in epilepsy and Huntington's disease. In the present review, we summarize the progress of recent studies regarding the structural properties, physiological functions, and pathological roles of KChIPs in both health and disease. We also summarize the small-molecule compounds that regulate the function of KChIPs. This review will provide an overview and update of the regulatory mechanism of the KChIP family and the progress of targeted drug research as a reference for researchers in related fields.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: KChIP2 (K+ channel interacting protein) is the auxiliary subunit of the fast transient outward K+ current ( Ito,f) in the heart, and insufficient KChIP2 expression induces Ito,f downregulation and arrhythmogenesis in cardiac hypertrophy. Studies have shown muscle-specific mitsugumin 53 (MG53) has promiscuity of function in the context of normal and diseased heart. This study investigates the possible roles of cardiac MG53 in regulation of KChIP2 expression and Ito,f, and the arrhythmogenic potential in hypertrophy. METHODS: MG53 expression is manipulated by genetic ablation of MG53 in mice and adenoviral overexpression or knockdown of MG53 by RNA interference in cultured neonatal rat ventricular myocytes. Cardiomyocyte hypertrophy is produced by phenylephrine stimulation in neonatal rat ventricular myocytes, and pressure overload-induced mouse cardiac hypertrophy is produced by transverse aortic constriction. RESULTS: KChIP2 expression and Ito,f density are downregulated in hearts from MG53-knockout mice and MG53-knockdown neonatal rat ventricular myocytes, but upregulated in MG53-overexpressing cells. In phenylephrine-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, MG53 expression is reduced with concomitant downregulation of KChIP2 and Ito,f, which can be reversed by MG53 overexpression, but exaggerated by MG53 knockdown. MG53 knockout enhances Ito,f remodeling and action potential duration prolongation and increases susceptibility to ventricular arrhythmia in mouse cardiac hypertrophy. Mechanistically, MG53 regulates NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells) activity and subsequently controls KChIP2 transcription. Chromatin immunoprecipitation demonstrates NF-κB protein has interaction with KChIP2 gene. MG53 overexpression decreases, whereas MG53 knockdown increases NF-κB enrichment at the 5' regulatory region of KChIP2 gene. Normalizing NF-κB activity reverses the alterations in KChIP2 in MG53-overexpressing or knockdown cells. Coimmunoprecipitation and Western blotting assays demonstrate MG53 has physical interaction with TAK1 (transforming growth factor-b [TGFb]-activated kinase 1) and IκBα (nuclear factor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells inhibitor, alpha), critical components of the NF-κB pathway. CONCLUSIONS: These findings establish MG53 as a novel regulator of KChIP2 and Ito,f by modulating NF-κB activity and reveal its critical role in electrophysiological remodeling in cardiac hypertrophy.
