ABSTRACT
PANoptosis is a newly discovered type of cell death characterized by pyroptosis, apoptosis and/or necroptosis and has been implicated in the inflammatory response. Piezo1 is a mechanosensitive ion channel that plays important roles in physiological development and various diseases. However, whether cardiomyocytes undergo PANoptosis during myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury and the role of Piezo1 in this process remain largely unexplored. In this study, our results revealed that the expression levels of the main components of the PANoptosome, including caspase-8, caspase-3, NLRP3, caspase-1, GSDMD, RIPK1, RIPK3 and MLKL, were significantly upregulated in I/R heart tissues over time, indicating the occurrence of PANoptosis in I/R hearts. Accordingly, Piezo1 expression was significantly upregulated in I/R-injured hearts and hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R)-treated cardiomyocytes. In contrast, pharmacological inhibition of Piezo1 by the inhibitor GsMTx4 in mice markedly attenuated the I/R-mediated decline in cardiac contractile function and increases in infarct size, apoptosis, oxidative stress and inflammation accompanied by the inhibition of PANoptosis-related mediators in I/R hearts. Consistently, the effects of Piezo1 on calcium influx and PANoptosis were further verified by GsMTx4 and Piezo1 activator Yoda1 in H/R-treated cardiomyocytes in vitro. Moreover, caspase-8 rather than calcium influx was required for H/R-induced PANoptosis in vitro. Mechanistically, Piezo1 interacts with caspase-8, a key initial activator of the PANoptosome complex, which subsequently activates cardiomyocyte PANoptosis, leading to cardiac dysfunction. In summary, these data suggest that Piezo1 is a new cardiac mechanosensor that promotes cardiac I/R injury possibly through the caspase-8-mediated activation of cardiomyocyte PANoptosis and highlight that Piezo1 may represent a new target for treating ischaemic heart disease.
