Erythropoietin preserves the endothelial differentiation capacity of cardiac progenitor cells and reduces heart failure during anticancer therapies

Anticancer therapies, such as targeting of STAT3 or the use of anthracyclins (doxorubicin), can induce cardiomyopathy. In mice prone to developing heart failure as a result of reduced cardiac STAT3 expression (cardiomyocyte-restricted deficiency of STAT3) or treatment with doxorubicin, we observed i...

Popis
Shrnutí:Anticancer therapies, such as targeting of STAT3 or the use of anthracyclins (doxorubicin), can induce cardiomyopathy. In mice prone to developing heart failure as a result of reduced cardiac STAT3 expression (cardiomyocyte-restricted deficiency of STAT3) or treatment with doxorubicin, we observed impaired endothelial differentiation capacity of Sca-1(+) cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs) in conjunction with attenuated CCL2/CCR2 activation. Mice in both models also displayed reduced erythropoietin (EPO) levels in the cardiac microenvironment. EPO binds to CPCs and seems to be responsible for maintaining an active CCL2/CCR2 system. Supplementation with the EPO derivative CERA in a hematocrit-inactive low dose was sufficient to upregulate CCL2, restore endothelial differentiation of CPCs, and preserve the cardiac microvasculature and cardiac function in both mouse models. Thus, low-dose EPO treatment could potentially be exploited as a therapeutic strategy to reduce the risk of heart failure in certain treatment regimens.
