Abstract
Cardiac pressure overload resulting from transaortic constriction (TAC) induces MKP-5 expression and facilitates cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. In this dataset, we show that MKP-5 deficiency attenuates cardiac fibrosis after TAC. In vitro, bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) from MKP-5 knockout mice exhibit enhanced phosphorylation of p38 MAPK, JNK, and Erk compared to BMDMs from wild-type mice in response to IL-4 stimulation.

(2) Masson's Trichrome staining of mouse 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 (MKP5-/-) and 249, 274, 275, 278 (MKP5+/+) at 12 wks after TAC. Blue staining is fibrosis. The files are named as mouse ID-image#, e.g., 12-image5.jpg means image #5 for mouse 12.
(3) Echo cardiography analysis (File: PreTAC + 12wks TAC Echo data) of mouse 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 (genotype: MKP5-/-) and 249, 274, 275, 278 (genotype: MKP5+/+) at Pre-TAC and 12 weeks post TAC. Parameters measured include interventricular septum (IVS) thickness (mm) at end of diastole (d) (column D) and at end of systole (s) (column E), left ventricle internal diameter (mm) end distole (F) and end systole (G), left ventricle posterior wall thickness (mm) end distole (H) and end systole (I), ejection fraction (%, J), fractional shortening (%, K), left ventricular mass (mg) (L) and left ventricular mass (mg) corrected (M), left ventricle volume (ul) end distole (N) and end systole (O).
Methods
Wild-type and MKP-5 knockout mice were subjected to TAC surgery. Cardiac function was subsequently analyzed by Echo cardiography with a VisualSonics Vevo 2100 machine. Fixed mouse hearts were processed for paraffin sections and Masson's trichrome staining to visualize fibrosis. Fibrosis was quantified using Image J software.
Bone marrow-derived macrophages from wild type and MKP-5 knockout mice were stimulated with IL-4 in culture for 0, 15, 30, 60, and 90 min and then lysed in RIPA buffer to collect protein for Western blots. Protein was separated by 10-15% SDS-PAGE and blotted for p38 MAPK total and p38 MAPK phosphorylated at Thr180/Tyr182, JNK total and JNK phosphorylated at Thr183/Tyr185, Erk total and Erk phosphorylated at Thr202/Tyr204. Immunoblots were developed using ODYSSEY infrared Imaging SYstem (LI-COR) and quantified with Image Studio software (LI-COR version 5.2).
