    Fibroblast Growth Factor–23 and Cardiac Structure and Function
    (Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2014) Agarwal, Isha; Ide, Noriko; Ix, Joachim H.; Kestenbaum, Bryan; Mannstadt, Beate; Schiller, Nelson B.; Whooley, Mary A.; Mukamal, Kenneth
    Background: Fibroblast growth factor–23 (FGF‐23) is a phosphaturic factor previously associated with left ventricular hypertrophy and systolic dysfunction among individuals with chronic kidney disease. Whether FGF‐23 acts directly to induce left ventricular hypertrophy, potentially independent of its klotho coreceptor, remains uncertain. We investigated associations of FGF‐23 with cardiac structural abnormalities among individuals with a broad range of kidney function and explored potential biological mechanisms using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and histology in klotho‐null mice, an established model of constitutively elevated FGF‐23. Methods and Results: Among 887 participants with coronary artery disease in the Heart and Soul Study, FGF‐23 was modestly associated with worse left ventricular ejection fraction (−1.0% per standard deviation increase in lnFGF‐23; standard error, 0.4%), but was not associated with the overall prevalence of concentric hypertrophy (odds ratio, 1.5; CI, 0.9 to 2.4) or eccentric hypertrophy (odds ratio, 1.1; CI, 0.9 to 1.3). FGF‐23 was only associated with concentric hypertrophy among individuals with diminished kidney function (eGFR <60 mL/min per 1.73 m2; odds ratio, 2.3; CI, 1.0 to 5.3; P‐interaction=0.28). Comparing klotho‐null with wild‐type mice, null mice did not have greater left ventricular mass (P=0.37) or a lower ejection fraction (P=0.94). Conclusions: Together, our results suggest that FGF‐23 is unlikely to have major effects on cardiovascular structure and function among patients free of substantial chronic kidney disease, and these effects may not be independent of the klotho coreceptor.

    p53 Modulates the Fate of Cardiac Progenitor Cells Ex Vivo and in the Diabetic Heart In Vivo
    (Elsevier, 2017) Kannappan, Ramaswamy; Matsuda, Alex; Ferreira-Martins, João; Zhang, Eric; Palano, Giorgia; Czarna, Anna; Cabral-Da-Silva, Mauricio Castro; Bastos-Carvalho, Adriana; Sanada, Fumihiro; Ide, Noriko; Rota, Marcello; Blasco, Maria A.; Serrano, Manuel; Anversa, Piero; Leri, Annarosa
    p53 is an important modulator of stem cell fate, but its role in cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs) is unknown. Here, we tested the effects of a single extra-copy of p53 on the function of CPCs in the presence of oxidative stress mediated by doxorubicin in vitro and type-1 diabetes in vivo. CPCs were obtained from super-p53 transgenic mice (p53-tg), in which the additional allele is regulated in a manner similar to the endogenous protein. Old CPCs with increased p53 dosage showed a superior ability to sustain oxidative stress, repair DNA damage and restore cell division. With doxorubicin, a larger fraction of CPCs carrying an extra-copy of the p53 allele recruited γH2A.X reestablishing DNA integrity. Enhanced p53 expression resulted in a superior tolerance to oxidative stress in vivo by providing CPCs with defense mechanisms necessary to survive in the milieu of the diabetic heart; they engrafted in regions of tissue injury and in three days acquired the cardiomyocyte phenotype. The biological advantage provided by the increased dosage of p53 in CPCs suggests that this genetic strategy may be translated to humans to increase cellular engraftment and growth, critical determinants of successful cell therapy for the failing heart.
