Generation of three induced pluripotent stem cell lines from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients carrying MYH7 mutations.

ABSTRACT: MYH7 heterozygous mutations are common genetic causes of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). HCM is characterized by hypertrophy of the left ventricle and diastolic dysfunction. We generated three human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from three HCM patients each carrying a single heterozygous mutation in MYH7, c.2167C > T, c.4066G > A, and c.5135G > A, respectively. All lines expressed high levels of pluripotent markers, had normal karyotype, and possessed capability of differentiation into derivatives of the three germ layers, which can serve as valuable tools for modeling HCM in vitro and investigating the pathological mechanisms related to MYH7 mutations.

Project description:Background: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic condition with a prevalence of 1:500-1:3 000. Variants in genes encoding sarcomeric proteins are mainly responsible for the disease. MYH7 gene encoding a myosin heavy chain beta, together with MYPBC3 gene are the two most commonly affected genes. The clinical presentation of this disease varies widely between individuals. This study aims to report a variant of MYH7 responsible for HCM in a five-generation family with a history of cardiac problems. Methods: The diagnosis was established according to the European Society of Cardiology HCM criteria based on two-dimensional Doppler echocardiography or cardiovascular magnetic resonance. Genetic analysis was performed using next-generation-sequencing and Sanger method. Results: The medical history of the presented family began with a prenatal diagnosis of HCM in the first child of a family with previously healthy parents. Five generations of the family had a long history of sudden cardiac death and cardiac problems. A NM_000257.4:c.2342T>A (p.Leu781Gln) variant was detected in the MYH7 gene. It was heterozygous in the proband and in all affected individuals in a large family. The variant was present in 10 affected members of the family, and was absent in 7 members. The clinical course of the disease was severe in several members of the family: three family members died of sudden cardiac death, one patient required heart transplantation, three underwent septal myectomy, and three required implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation. Conclusion: Herein, we report a MYH7 variant responsible for HCM. Familial HCM is inherited primarily in autosomal dominant mode, which is in accordance with our study. However, the presented family showed a broad clinical spectrum of HCM. Out of 10 family members with positive genetic testing 8 had severe presentation of the disease and 2 had a mild phenotype. This suggests that the severity of the disease may depend on other factors, most likely genetic.
