DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Ischemic and pharmacologic preconditioning (PC) constitute the most powerful protection of the heart from ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury; however, the detailed molecular mechanisms underlying cardioprotection are still being defined. There is a general consensus that mitochondria are the final effectors of cardioprotective signaling regimes, and hexokinase (HK) has been suggested by multiple groups to regulate the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). Though the association of HK with voltage-dependent anion channels (VDAC) was elucidated over 10 years ago, two fundamental questions regarding the physiologic consequences of this interaction have remained unanswered, and consequently, have stalled the progression of the cardioprotection field. First, is the dissociation of HK from cardiac mitochondria a molecular trigger of cell death? That is, does HK dissociation from mitochondria precede all other cell death events [e.g., MPT, DY loss, and cytochrome C (cyto C) release]? Second, what are the unknown molecular players that stabilize the HK-VDAC interaction and impart its unique cardioprotective properties? Unequivocal answers to these questions have been unattainable due to the lack of technologies for (i) temporal profiling of the spatial distribution of HK in relation to MPT, ?? loss, and cyto release in live cardiomyocytes, and (ii) quantifying the molecular constituents of the HK-VDAC complex and deciphering their stoichiometry. In view of these challenges, our program has tailored state-of-the-art live-cell imaging and quantitative proteomic innovations to comprehensively delineate the dynamics of HK-induced cardioprotection on a biological timescale. We hypothesize that HK is a core regulator of cardioprotection, common to multiple models of injury and preconditioning. We will employ real-time imaging in live myocytes to define the temporal profile of the molecular events during injury (Aim 1); we will use an extensive biochemical and genetic toolbox to delineate the molecular paradigm of HK interaction with mitochondria as well as its physiological consequences mediating cardioprotection (Aim 2); we will quantitatively define the proteome dynamics and molecular stoichiometry of HK interaction with VDAC; characterize isoform-selective changes in assembly of the HK- VDAC interactome; and identify candidate proteins essential to stabilize the HK interaction with VDAC during cardioprotection (Aim 3); and we will use cardiac gene delivery of HK constructs or other molecular candidates identified in Aims 1-3, to test an in vivo gene therapy strategy to protect adult rats from I/R injury (Aim 4). The proposed investigations promise conceptual, technological, and methodological innovations. We will leverage close collaborations with the UCLA NHLBI Proteomics Center for immediate and efficient translation of knowledge obtained in cell/animal models to clinical studies. The success of the proposed investigations will undoubtedly propel the field of cardioprotection forward.

描述（由申请人提供）：缺血和药理学预处理（PC）构成了对心脏缺血/再灌注（I/R）损伤的最强有力的保护;然而，心脏保护的详细分子机制仍在定义中。普遍认为线粒体是心脏保护信号传导机制的最终效应器，多个研究小组已经提出己糖激酶（HK）调节线粒体通透性转换（MPT）。虽然HK与电压依赖性阴离子通道（VDAC）的关联在10年前就已阐明，但关于这种相互作用的生理后果的两个基本问题仍未得到解答，因此，阻碍了心脏保护领域的进展。首先，HK从心肌线粒体上的解离是细胞死亡的分子触发器吗？也就是说，HK从线粒体解离先于所有其他细胞死亡事件[例如，MPT、DY损失和细胞色素C（cyto C）释放]？第二，稳定HK-VDAC相互作用并赋予其独特的心脏保护特性的未知分子是什么？这些问题的明确答案一直无法实现，由于缺乏技术（i）的时间剖面的空间分布的香港与MPT，？？损失和活心肌细胞中的细胞释放，和（ii）定量HK-VDAC复合物的分子成分并破译它们的化学计量。鉴于这些挑战，我们的项目量身定制了最先进的活细胞成像和定量蛋白质组学创新，以全面描绘HK诱导的心脏保护在生物时间尺度上的动态。我们假设HK是心脏保护的核心调节剂，常见于多种损伤和预处理模型。我们将采用活心肌细胞的实时成像来确定损伤过程中分子事件的时间分布（目标1）;我们将使用广泛的生物化学和遗传工具箱来描绘HK与线粒体相互作用的分子模式及其介导心脏保护的生理后果（目标2）;我们将定量确定HK与VDAC相互作用的蛋白质组动力学和分子化学计量学;表征HK-VDAC相互作用组组装中的同种型选择性变化;并鉴定在心脏保护期间稳定HK与VDAC相互作用所必需的候选蛋白质（目的3）;并且我们将使用HK构建体或目的1-3中鉴定的其他分子候选物的心脏基因递送来测试体内基因治疗策略以保护成年大鼠免受I/R损伤（目的4）。拟议的调查承诺概念，技术和方法的创新。我们将利用与UCLA NHLBI蛋白质组学中心的密切合作，将细胞/动物模型中获得的知识立即有效地转化为临床研究。这些研究的成功无疑将推动心脏保护领域的发展。
