ABSTRACT
Trained immunity of monocytes, endothelial, and smooth muscle cells augments the cytokine response to secondary stimuli. Immune training is characterized by stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α, mTOR activation, and aerobic glycolysis. Cardiac fibroblast (CF)-myofibroblast transition upon myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) features epigenetic and metabolic adaptations reminiscent of trained immunity. We assessed the impact of I/R on characteristics of immune training in human CF and mouse myocardium. I/R was simulated in vitro with transient metabolic inhibition. CF primed with simulated I/R or control buffer were 5 days later re-stimulated with Pam3CSK for 24 h. Mice underwent transient left anterior descending artery occlusion or sham operation with reperfusion for up to 5 days. HIF-regulated metabolic targets and cytokines were assessed by qPCR, immunoblot, and ELISA and glucose consumption, lactate release, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) by chromogenic assay. Simulated I/R increased HIF-1α stabilization, mTOR phosphorylation, glucose consumption, lactate production, and transcription of PFKB3 and F2RL3, a HIF-regulated target gene, in human CF. PGK1 and LDH mRNAs were suppressed. Intracellular LDH transiently increased after simulated I/R, and extracellular LDH showed sustained elevation. I/R priming increased abundance of pro-caspase-1, auto-cleaved active caspase-1, and the expression and secretion of interleukin (IL)-1ß, but did not augment Pam3CSK-stimulated cytokine transcription or secretion. Myocardial I/R in vivo increased abundance of HIF-1 and the precursor and cleaved forms of caspase-1, caspase-11, and caspase-8, but not of LDH-A or phospho-mTOR. I/R partially reproduces features of immune training in human CF, specifically HIF-1α stabilization, aerobic glycolysis, mTOR phosphorylation, and PFKB3 transcription. I/R does not augment PGK1 or LDH expression or the cytokine response to Pam3CSK. Regulation of PAR4 and inflammasome caspases likely occurs independently of an immune training repertoire.
