Desmosomes are anchoring junctions that exist in cells that endure physical
stress such as cardiac myocytes. The importance of desmosomes in maintaining the
homeostasis of the myocardium is underscored by frequent mutations of desmosome
components found in human patients and animal models. Arrhythmogenic right
ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a phenotype caused by mutations in
desmosomal components in ? 50% of patients, however, the causes in the remaining
50% of patients still remain unknown. A deficiency of inhibitor of
apoptosis-stimulating protein of p53 (iASPP), an evolutionarily conserved
inhibitor of p53, caused by spontaneous mutation recently has been associated
with a lethal autosomal recessive cardiomyopathy in Poll Hereford calves and Wa3
mice. However, the molecular mechanisms that mediate this putative function of
iASPP are completely unknown. Here, we show that iASPP is expressed at
intercalated discs in human and mouse postmitotic cardiomyocytes. iASPP interacts
with desmoplakin and desmin in cardiomyocytes to maintain the integrity of
desmosomes and intermediate filament networks in vitro and in vivo. iASPP
deficiency specifically induces right ventricular dilatation in mouse embryos at
embryonic day 16.5. iASPP-deficient mice with exon 8 deletion (Ppp1r13l(?8/?8))
die of sudden cardiac death, displaying features of ARVC. Intercalated discs in
cardiomyocytes from four of six human ARVC cases show reduced or loss of iASPP.
ARVC-derived desmoplakin mutants DSP-1-V30M and DSP-1-S299R exhibit weaker
binding to iASPP. These data demonstrate that by interacting with desmoplakin and
desmin, iASPP is an important regulator of desmosomal function both in vitro and
in vivo. This newly identified property of iASPP may provide new molecular
insight into the pathogenesis of ARVC.
