Hypertension-mediated pathol. cardiac remodeling often progresses to heart failure. Elabela, mainly expressed in the cardiac microvascular endothelial cells (CMVECs), functions as a new endogenous ligand for apelin receptor. However, the exact roles of elabela in hypertension remain largely unclear. In this study, 10-wk-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomly subjected to infusion of angiotensin (Ang) II (1.5 mg/kg/d) or saline for 2 wk. Ang II infusion led to marked increases in systolic blood pressure levels and reduction of elabela levels in hypertensive mice with augmented myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis. Furthermore, administration of elabela or ferroptosis inhibitor ferrostatin-1 significantly prevented Ang II-mediated pathol. myocardial remodeling, dysfunction, and ultrastructural injury in hypertensive mice with downregulated expression of inflammation-, hypertrophy-, and fibrosis-related genes. Notably, elabela strikingly alleviated Ang II-induced upregulation of iron levels and lipid peroxidation in hypertensive mice by suppressing cardiac interleukin-6 (IL-6)/STAT3 signaling and activating the xCT/glutathione peroxidase (GPX4) signaling. In cultured CMVECs, exposure to Ang II resulted in a marked decrease in elabela levels and obvious increases in cellular ferroptosis, proliferation, inflammation, and superoxide production, which were rescued by elabela or ferrostatin-1 while were blocked by co-treatment with rhIL-6. Furthermore, knockdown of elabela by siRNA in CMVECs contributed to Ang II-mediated augmentations in cellular proliferation, migration, and oxidative stress in cultured cardiac fibroblasts and cardiomyocytes, resp. In conclusion, elabela antagonizes Ang II-mediated promotion of CMVECs ferroptosis, adverse myocardial remodeling, fibrosis and heart dysfunction through modulating the IL-6/STAT3/GPX4 signaling pathway. Targeting elabela-APJ axis serves as a novel strategy for hypertensive heart diseases.
