Nonclassical Axis of the Renin-Angiotensin System and Neprilysin: Key Mediators That Underlie the Cardioprotective Effect of PPAR-Alpha Activation during Myocardial Ischemia in a Metabolic Syndrome Model
The activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) participates in the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and in heart failure. PPAR-alpha activation by fenofibrate reverts some of the effects caused by these pathologies. Recently, nonclassical RAS components have been implicated in the path...

description | The activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) participates in the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and in heart failure. PPAR-alpha activation by fenofibrate reverts some of the effects caused by these pathologies. Recently, nonclassical RAS components have been implicated in the pathogenesis of hypertension and myocardial dysfunction; however, their cardiac functions are still controversial. We evaluated if the nonclassical RAS signaling pathways, directed by angiotensin III and angiotensin-(1-7), are involved in the cardioprotective effect of fenofibrate during ischemia in MetS rats. Control (CT) and MetS rats were divided into the following groups: (a) sham, (b) vehicle-treated myocardial infarction (MI-V), and (c) fenofibrate-treated myocardial infarction (MI-F). Angiotensin III and angiotensin IV levels and insulin increased the aminopeptidase (IRAP) expression and decreased the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) expression in the hearts from MetS rats. Ischemia activated the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE)/angiotensin II/angiotensin receptor 1 (AT1R) and angiotensin III/angiotensin IV/angiotensin receptor 4 (AT4R)-IRAP axes. Fenofibrate treatment prevented the damage due to ischemia in MetS rats by favoring the angiotensin-(1-7)/angiotensin receptor 2 (AT2R) axis and inhibiting the angiotensin III/angiotensin IV/AT4R-IRAP signaling pathway. Additionally, fenofibrate downregulated neprilysin expression and increased bradykinin production. These effects of PPAR-alpha activation were accompanied by a reduction in the size of the myocardial infarct and in the activity of serum creatine kinase. Thus, the regulation of the nonclassical axis of RAS forms part of a novel protective effect of fenofibrate in myocardial ischemia. |
