BACKGROUND: Atrial fibroblasts activation causes atrial fibrosis, which is one major pathophysiological contributor to atrial fibrillation (AF) genesis. Klotho is a pleiotropic protein with remarkable cardiovascular effects, including anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, and anti-apoptotic effects. This study investigated whether Klotho can modulate the activity of human atrial fibroblasts and provides an anti-fibrotic effect. METHODS: Cell migration assay and proliferation assay were used to investigate fibrogenesis activities in single human atrial fibroblasts with or without treatment of Klotho (10 and 100 pM, 48 h). Calcium fluorescence imaging, the whole-cell patch-clamp, and Western blotting were performed in human atrial fibroblasts treated with and without Klotho (100 pM, 48 h) to evaluate the store-operated calcium entry (SOCE), transient receptor potential (TRP) currents, and downstream signaling. RESULTS: High dose of Klotho (100 pM, 48 h) significantly reduced the migration of human atrial fibroblasts without alternating their proliferation; in addition, treatment of Klotho (100 pM, 48 h) also decreased SOCE and TRP currents. In the presence of BI-749327 (a selective canonical TRP 6 channel inhibitor, 1 muM, 48 h), Klotho (100 pM, 48 h) could not inhibit fibroblast migration nor suppress the TRP currents. Klotho-treated fibroblasts (100 pM, 48 h) had lower phosphorylated phospholipase C (PLC) (p-PLCbeta3 Ser537) expression than the control. The PLC inhibitor, U73122 (1 muM, 48 h), reduced the migration, decreased SOCE and TRP currents, and lowered p-PLCbeta3 in atrial fibroblasts, similar to Klotho. In the presence of the U73122 (1 muM, 48 h), Klotho (100 pM, 48 h) could not further modulate the migration and collagen synthesis nor suppress the TRP currents in human atrial fibroblasts. CONCLUSIONS: Klotho inhibited pro-fibrotic activities and SOCE by inhibiting the PLC signaling and suppressing the TRP currents, which may provide a novel insight into atrial fibrosis and arrhythmogenesis.
