Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Epicardial adipose tissue has been implicated in the development of heart disease. Nonetheless, the crosstalk between factors secreted from epicardial adipose tissue and cardiomyocytes has not been studied. Here, we examined the effect of factors secreted from epicardial adipose tissue on contractile function and insulin signalling in primary rat cardiomocytes. Epicardial and subcutaneous adipose tissue were isolated from guinea pigs fed a high-fat (HFD) or standard diet. HFD-feeding for 6 months induced glucose intolerance, and decreased fractional shortening and ejection fraction (all P< 0.05). Conditioned media (CM) generated from epicardial and subcutaneous adipose tissue explants were subjected to cytokine profiling using antibody arrays, or incubated with cardiomyocytes to assess the effects on insulin action and contractile function. Eleven factors were differentially secreted by epicardial adipose tissue when compared to subcutaneous adipose tissue. Furthermore, secretion of 30 factors by epicardial adipose tissue was affected by HFD-feeding. Most prominently, activin A-immunoreactivity was 6.4-fold higher in CM from HFD- versus standard diet-fed animals and, 2-fold higher in epicardial versus subcutaneous adipose tissue. In cardiomyocytes, CM from epicardial adipose tissue of HFD-fed animals increased SMAD2-phosphorylation, a marker for activin A-signalling, decreased SERCA2a expression, and reduced insulin-mediated phosphorylation of Akt-Ser473 versus CM from subcutaneous adipose tissue and standard diet-fed animals. Finally, CM from epicardial adipose tissue of HFD-fed animals as compared to CM from the other groups markedly reduced sarcomere shortening and cytosolic Ca(2+) -fluxes in cardiomyocytes. These data provide evidence for an interaction between factors secreted from epicardial adipose tissue and cardiomyocyte function.
