RESUMO

AIMS: Heart failure (HF) after myocardial infarction (MI) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. We sought to investigate the functional importance of cardiac iron status after MI and the potential of pre-emptive iron supplementation in preventing cardiac iron deficiency (ID) and attenuating left ventricular (LV) remodelling. METHODS AND RESULTS: MI was induced in C57BL/6J male mice by left anterior descending coronary artery ligation. Cardiac iron status in the non-infarcted LV myocardium was dynamically regulated after MI: non-haem iron and ferritin increased at 4 weeks but decreased at 24 weeks after MI. Cardiac ID at 24 weeks was associated with reduced expression of iron-dependent electron transport chain (ETC) Complex I compared with sham-operated mice. Hepcidin expression in the non-infarcted LV myocardium was elevated at 4 weeks and suppressed at 24 weeks. Hepcidin suppression at 24 weeks was accompanied by more abundant expression of membrane-localized ferroportin, the iron exporter, in the non-infarcted LV myocardium. Notably, similarly dysregulated iron homeostasis was observed in LV myocardium from failing human hearts, which displayed lower iron content, reduced hepcidin expression, and increased membrane-bound ferroportin. Injecting ferric carboxymaltose (15 µg/g body weight) intravenously at 12, 16, and 20 weeks after MI preserved cardiac iron content and attenuated LV remodelling and dysfunction at 24 weeks compared with saline-injected mice. CONCLUSION: We demonstrate, for the first time, that dynamic changes in cardiac iron status after MI are associated with local hepcidin suppression, leading to cardiac ID long term after MI. Pre-emptive iron supplementation maintained cardiac iron content and attenuated adverse remodelling after MI. Our results identify the spontaneous development of cardiac ID as a novel disease mechanism and therapeutic target in post-infarction LV remodelling and HF.
