Activation of ERK1/2 signaling in cardiovascular regulatory regions of the brain contributes to sympathetic excitation in myocardial infarction (MI)-induced heart failure (HF) by increasing brain renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activity, neuroinflammation, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. The mechanisms eliciting brain ERK1/2 signaling in HF are still poorly understood. We tested the involvement of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) which, upon activation, stimulates ERK1/2 activity. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats received bilateral microinjections of a lentiviral vector encoding a small interfering RNA (siRNA) for EGFR, or a scrambled siRNA, into the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN), a recognized source of sympathetic overactivity in HF. One week later, coronary artery ligation was performed to induce HF. Four weeks later, the EGFR siRNA-treated HF rats, compared with the scrambled siRNA-treated HF rats, had lower mRNA and protein levels of EGFR, lower levels of phosphorylated (p-) EGFR and p-ERK1/2 and lower mRNA levels of the inflammatory mediators TNF-α, IL-1β and cyclooxygenase-2, the RAS components angiotensin-converting enzyme and angiotensin II type 1a receptor and the ER stress markers BIP and ATF4 in the PVN. They also had lower plasma and urinary norepinephrine levels and improved peripheral manifestations of HF. Additional studies revealed that p-EGFR was increased in the PVN of HF rats, compared with sham-operated control rats. These results suggest that activation of EGFR in the PVN triggers ERK1/2 signaling, along with ER stress, neuroinflammation and RAS activity, in MI-induced HF. Brain EGFR may be a novel target for therapeutic intervention in MI-induced HF.
