Prolonged stimulation of β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) can lead to sympathetic overactivity that causes pathologic cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis, ultimately resulting in heart failure. Recent studies suggest that abnormal protein ubiquitylation may contribute to the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy and remodeling. In this study, we demonstrated that deficiency of a deubiquitinase, Josephin domain-containing protein 2 (JOSD2), ameliorated isoprenaline (ISO)- and myocardial infarction (MI)-induced cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, and dysfunction both in vitro and in vivo. Conversely, JOSD2 overexpression aggravated ISO-induced cardiac pathology. Through comprehensive mass spectrometry analysis, we identified that JOSD2 interacts with Calcium-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKIIδ). JOSD2 directly hydrolyzes the K63-linked polyubiquitin chains on CaMKIIδ, thereby increasing the phosphorylation of CaMKIIδ and resulting in calcium mishandling, hypertrophy, and fibrosis in cardiomyocytes. In vivo experiments showed that the cardiac remodeling induced by JOSD2 overexpression could be reversed by the CaMKIIδ inhibitor KN-93. In conclusion, our study highlights the role of JOSD2 in mediating ISO-induced cardiac remodeling through the regulation of CaMKIIδ ubiquitination, and suggests its potential as a therapeutic target for combating the disease.
