2 MATRICELLULAR PROTEINS AND THE HEART Tenascins (C, X) Thrombospondins (1,2) Osteonectin/SPARC Osteopontin Periostin CCN1 Structural proteins Fibronectin Laminin Cell surface receptors Fibroblasts Cardiomyocytes Endothelial cells Soluble EC factors Cytokines Growth factors Proteinases Cope with environmental insults regulating inflammation, ECM remodelling, and cell survival (Schellings MWM et al, Cardiovasc Res 24;64:24-31)

3 ASSOCIATION OF OSTEOPONTIN WITH ECM IN THE HEART Experimental evidence Myocardial OPN deficiency is associated with impaired fibrotic response OPN KO mice after myocardial infarction (Circ Res 21;88:18-187) OPN KO mice submitted to ANG II infusion (Hypertension 24;43: ) OPN KO mice submitted to ANG II infusion (J Am Coll Cardiol 24;41: ) OPN KO mice submitted to aortic binding (Hypertension 24;44: ) Increased myocardial expression of OPN is associated with myocardial fibrosis Rodents with LVH of hypertensive origin (Circulation 1997;96: ) Rats after myocardial infarction (Am J Pathol 1995;145: ) Syriam hamsters with heritable DCM (Circulation 1995;92:75-79) Rats with HF due to hypertensive heart diasease (Hypertension 1999;33:663-67) Clinical evidence Increased myocardial expression of OPN is associated with myocardial fibrosis Patients with LVH of hypertensive origin (Circulation 1997;96: ) Patients with systolic HF (due to DCM of non ischemic origin) (Eur J Heart Fail 22;4: ) Patients with diastolic HF (due to HHD, HCM, and RD) (Eur J Heart Fail 22;4: )
