Post-infarction remodelling is accompanied and influenced by perturbations in mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signalling. The growth arrest and DNA-damage-inducible 45 (Gadd45) proteins are small acidic proteins involved in DNA repair and modulation of MAPK activity. Little is known about the role of Gadd45 in the heart. Here, we explored the potential contribution of Gadd45 gamma (gamma) isoform to the acute and late phase of heart failure (HF) after myocardial infarction (MI) and determined the mechanisms underlying Gadd45 gamma actions. The Gadd45 gamma isoform is up-regulated in murine cardiomyocytes subjected to simulated ischaemia and in the mouse heart during MI. To mimic the situation observed during MI, we enhanced Gadd45 gamma content in cardiomyocytes with a single injection of an adeno-associated viral (AAV9) vector encoding Gadd45 gamma under the cTNT promoter. Gadd45 gamma overexpression induces cardiomyocyte apoptosis, fibrosis, left ventricular dysfunction, and HF. On the other hand, genetic deletion of Gadd45 gamma in knockout mice confers resistance to ischaemic injury, at least in part by limiting cardiomyocyte apoptosis. Mechanistically, Gadd45 gamma activates receptor-interacting protein 1 (RIP1) and caspase-8 in a p38 MAPK-dependent manner to promote cardiomyocyte death. This work is the first to demonstrate that Gadd45 gamma accumulation during MI promotes the development and persistence of HF by inducing cardiomyocyte apoptosis in a p38 MAPK-dependent manner. We clearly identify Gadd45 gamma as a therapeutic target in the development of HF.
