The E3 ubiquitin ligase MARCH2 protects against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury through inhibiting pyroptosis via negative regulation of PGAM5/MAVS/NLRP3 axis
Abstract Inflammasome activation and pyroptotic cell death are known to contribute to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases, such as myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, although the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood.

description | Abstract Inflammasome activation and pyroptotic cell death are known to contribute to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases, such as myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, although the underlying regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here we report that expression levels of the E3 ubiquitin ligase membrane-associated RING finger protein 2 (MARCH2) were elevated in ischemic human hearts or mouse hearts upon I/R injury. Genetic ablation of MARCH2 aggravated myocardial infarction and cardiac dysfunction upon myocardial I/R injury. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis suggested that loss of MARCH2 prompted activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in cardiomyocytes. Mechanistically, phosphoglycerate mutase 5 (PGAM5) was found to act as a novel regulator of MAVS-NLRP3 signaling by forming liquid-liquid phase separation condensates with MAVS and fostering the recruitment of NLRP3. MARCH2 directly interacts with PGAM5 to promote its K48-linked polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation, resulting in reduced PGAM5–MAVS co-condensation, and consequently inhibition of NLRP3 inflammasome activation and cardiomyocyte pyroptosis. AAV-based re-introduction of MARCH2 significantly ameliorated I/R-induced mouse heart dysfunction. Altogether, our findings reveal a novel mechanism where MARCH2-mediated ubiquitination negatively regulates the PGAM5/MAVS/NLRP3 axis to protect against cardiomyocyte pyroptosis and myocardial I/R injury. |
