STAT3, a key regulator of cell-to-cell communication in the heart.

Abstract:

:The signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is fundamental for physiological homeostasis and stress-induced remodelling of the heart as deregulated STAT3 circuits are sufficient to induce dilated and peripartum cardiomyopathy and adverse remodelling after myocardial infarction. STAT3 activity depends on multiple post-translational modifications (phosphorylation, acetylation, and dimerization). It is regulated by multiple receptor systems, which are coupled to positive and negative feedback loops to ensure physiological and beneficial action. Its intracellular functions are diverse as it acts as a signalling protein, a transcription factor but also participates in mitochondria energy production and protection. STAT3 modulates proliferation, differentiation, survival, oxidative stress, and/or metabolism in cardiomyocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, progenitor cells, and various inflammatory cells. By regulating the secretome of these cardiac cells, STAT3 influences a broad range of intercellular communication systems. It thereby impacts on the communication between cardiomyocytes, the plasticity of the cardiac microenvironment, the vasculature, the extracellular matrix, and the inflammation in response to physiological and pathophysiological stress. Here, we sum up current knowledge on STAT3-mediated intra- and intercellular communication within the heterogeneous cellular network of the myocardium to co-ordinate complex biological processes and discuss STAT3-dependent targets as novel therapeutic concepts to treat various forms of heart disease.
