We analyzed fibrosis in HF patients using transcriptomic data. Genes differentially expressed between normal control and congestive HF (CHF) dogs included P3H1, P3H2, P3H4, P4HA2, PLOD1 and PLOD3, which belong to the 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases (2OGD) superfamily that stabilizes collagen during fibrosis. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis demonstrated 2OGD gene expression was increased in CHF samples compared with normal left ventricle (LV) samples. 2OGD gene expression was repressed in angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor-treated samples. These genes, activated the hydroxylation of proline or lysin residues of procollagen mediated by 2-oxoglutaric acid and O2, produce succinic acid and CO2. Metabolic analysis demonstrated the concentration of succinic acid was significantly increased in CHF samples compared with normal LV samples. Fibrosis was induced in human cardiac fibroblasts by TGF-ß1 treatment. After treatment, the gene and protein expressions of 2OGD, the concentration of succinic acid, and the oxygen consumption rate were increased compared with no treatment. This is the first study to show that collagen-related 2OGD genes contribute to HF during the induction of fibrosis and might be potential therapeutic targets for fibrosis and HF., Journal Article}, title = {Transcriptome analysis of a dog model of congestive heart failure shows that collagen-related 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases contribute to heart failure}, volume = {12}, year = {2022} }
