Histone deacetyltransferase inhibitors Trichostatin A and Mocetinostat differentially regulate MMP9, IL-18 and RECK expression, and attenuate Angiotensin II-induced cardiac fibroblast migration and proliferation.
Histone acetylation/deacetylation plays a key role in the epigenetic regulation of multiple pro-fibrotic genes. Here we investigated the effects of histone deacetyltransferase (HDAC) inhibition on angiotensin (Ang)-II-induced pro-fibrotic changes in adult mouse cardiac fibroblasts (CF). CF express class I HDACs 1 and 2, and Ang-II induces their activation. Notably, silencing HDAC1 or HDAC2 attenuated Ang-II induced CF proliferation and migration. Under basal conditions, HDAC1 dimerizes with HDAC2 in CF and Ang-II reversed this interaction. Treatment with Trichostatin A (TSA), a broad-spectrum HDAC inhibitor, restored their physical association, and attenuated Ang-II-induced MMP9 expression, IL-18 induction, and extracellular matrix (collagen I, collagen III and fibronectin) production. Further, TSA inhibited Ang-II-induced MMP9 and Il18 transcription by blocking NF-κB and AP-1 binding to their respective promoter regions. By inhibiting Sp1 binding to RECK promoter, TSA reversed Ang-II-induced RECK suppression, collagen and fibronectin expression, and CF migration and proliferation. The class I-specific HDAC inhibitor Mocetinostat (MGCD) recapitulated TSA effects on Ang-II-treated CF. Together, these results demonstrate that targeting HDACs attenuates the pro-inflammatory and pro-fibrotic effects of Ang-II on CF.
