Peroxisomal biogenesis factor 5 (PEX5) is a member of peroxisome biogenesis protein family which serves as a shuttle receptor for the import of peroxisome matrix protein. The function of PEX5 on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy remained to be elucidated. Our study demonstrated that the protein expression level of PEX5 was declined in primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes treated with phenylephrine (PE) and hearts from cardiac hypertrophic rats induced by abdominal aortic constriction (AAC). Overexpression of PEX5 alleviated cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by PE, while silencing of PEX5 exacerbated cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. PEX5 improved redox imbalance by decreasing cellular reactive oxygen species level and preserving peroxisomal catalase. Moreover, PEX5 knockdown aggravated PE-induced activation of redox-sensitive signaling pathways, including mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3); whereas PEX5 overexpression suppressed activation of MAPK and STAT3. But PEX5 did not affect PE-induced phosphorylation of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). In conclusion, the present study suggests that PEX5 protects cardiomyocyte against hypertrophy via regulating redox homeostasis and inhibiting redox-sensitive signaling pathways MAPK and STAT3.
