Using mice with genetic ablation of calcium\/calmodulin\u2010dependent protein kinase <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">II<\/jats:styled-content> <jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic> (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CaMKII<\/jats:styled-content><jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic>), which are resistant to pathological cardiac stress, we show that <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CaMKII<\/jats:styled-content><jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic> regulates the phosphorylation of histone <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">H3<\/jats:styled-content> at serine\u201010 during pressure overload hypertrophy. <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">H3 S10<\/jats:styled-content> phosphorylation is strongly increased in the adult mouse heart in the early phase of cardiac hypertrophy and remains detectable during cardiac decompensation. This response correlates with up\u2010regulation of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CaMKII<\/jats:styled-content><jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic> and increased expression of transcriptional drivers of pathological cardiac hypertrophy and of fetal cardiac genes. Similar changes are detected in patients with end\u2010stage heart failure, where <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CaMKII<\/jats:styled-content><jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic> specifically interacts with phospho\u2010<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">H3<\/jats:styled-content>. Robust <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">H3<\/jats:styled-content> phosphorylation is detected in both adult ventricular myocytes and in non\u2010cardiac cells in the stressed myocardium, and these signals are abolished in <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CaMKII<\/jats:styled-content><jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic>\u2010deficient mice after pressure overload. Mechanistically, fetal cardiac genes are activated by increased recruitment of <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CaMKII<\/jats:styled-content><jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic> and enhanced <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">H3<\/jats:styled-content> phosphorylation at hypertrophic promoter regions, both in mice and in human failing hearts, and this response is blunted in <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">CaMKII<\/jats:styled-content><jats:italic>\u03b4<\/jats:italic>\u2010deficient mice under stress. We also document that the chaperone protein 14\u20133\u20133 binds phosphorylated <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">H3<\/jats:styled-content> in response to stress, allowing proper elongation of fetal cardiac genes by <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">RNA<\/jats:styled-content> polymerase <jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">II<\/jats:styled-content> (<jats:styled-content style=\"fixed-case\">RNAPII<\/jats:styled-content>), as well as elongation of transcription factors regulating cardiac hypertrophy.
