RETRACTED: The novel antibody fusion protein rhNRG1-HER3i promotes heart regeneration by enhancing NRG1-ERBB4 signaling pathway

Stimulating cardiomyocyte proliferation in the adult heart has emerged as a promising strategy for cardiac regeneration following myocardial infarction (MI). The NRG1-ERBB4 signaling pathway has been implicated in the regulation of cardiomyocyte proliferation. However, the therapeutic potential of recombinant human NRG1 (rhNRG1) has been limited due to the low expression of ERBB4 in adult cardiomyocytes. Here, we investigated whether a fusion protein of rhNRG1 and an ERBB3 inhibitor (rhNRG1-HER3i) could enhance the affinity of NRG1 for ERBB4 and promote adult cardiomyocyte proliferation. In vitro and in vivo experiments were conducted using postnatal day 1 (P1), P7, and adult cardiomyocytes. Western blot analysis was performed to assess the expression and activity of ERBB4. Cardiomyocyte proliferation was evaluated using Ki67 and pH 3 immunostaining, while fibrosis was assessed using Masson staining. Our results indicate that rhNRG1-HER3i, but not rhNRG1, promoted P7 and adult cardiomyocyte proliferation. Furthermore, rhNRG1-HER3i improved cardiac function and reduced cardiac fibrosis in post-MI hearts. Administration of rhNRG1-HER3i inhibited ERBB3 phosphorylation while increasing ERBB4 phosphorylation in adult mouse hearts. Additionally, rhNRG1-HER3i enhanced angiogenesis following MI compared to rhNRG1. In conclusion, our findings suggest that rhNRG1-HER3i is a viable therapeutic approach for promoting adult cardiomyocyte proliferation and treating MI by enhancing NRG1-ERBB4 signaling pathway.

Chronic kidney disease is a global health problem affecting 10% to 12% of the population. Uremic cardiomyopathy is often characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy, fibrosis, and diastolic dysfunction. Dysregulation of neuregulin-1β signaling in the heart is a known contributor to heart failure. The systemically administered recombinant human neuregulin-1β for 10 days in our 5/6 nephrectomy-induced model of chronic kidney disease alleviated the progression of uremic cardiomyopathy and kidney dysfunction in type 4 cardiorenal syndrome. The currently presented positive preclinical data warrant clinical studies to confirm the beneficial effects of recombinant human neuregulin-1β in patients with chronic kidney disease.

BACKGROUNDWe investigated the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of intravenous recombinant human Neuregulin-1 (rhNRG-1), a DNA recombinant protein for the treatment of chronic heart failure, in healthy Chinese volunteers following single and multiple dose administration.METHODS AND RESULTSTo evaluate the safety and tolerance after single-dosing escalation, 28 subjects were divided into six groups (0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6, and 2.4 μg/kg) to receive an intravenous (IV) infusion of rhNRG-1 over 10 min by a randomized, open-label design. Only the 1.2 μg/kg dose group obtained pharmacokinetic parameters: C_max was 7.645 (24.21) ng/mL, AUC_0-t was 97.088 (21.41) min·ng/mL. To assess the safety and pharmacokinetics after multiple-dosing, 32 subjects were divided into four groups (0.2, 0.4, 0.8, and 1.2 μg/kg) to receive a 10-min IV infusion of rhNRG-1 for five consecutive days. After multiple dosing of 1.2 μg/kg, the C_max value at day 5 was 8.838 (51.6) ng/mL and the AUC_0-t value at day 5 was 109.890 (32.99) min·ng/mL. RhNRG-1 is rapidly cleared from the blood and has a short t_1/2 of about 10 min. The adverse events related to rhNRG-1 mainly included flat or inverted T wave and gastrointestinal reactions, all of which were mild.CONCLUSIONSIt is concluded that rhNRG-1 is safe and well tolerated in healthy Chinese subjects at the dosing levels used in this study. The severity and frequency of adverse events did not increase with the prolongation of administration time.CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATIONChinese Clinical Trial Registry ( http://www.chictr.org.cn ) Identifier No. ChiCTR2000041107.
