The effect of disease on human cardiac protein expression profiles in paired samples from right and left ventricles.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Cardiac diseases (e.g. coronary and valve) are associated with ventricular cellular remodeling. However, ventricular biopsies from left and right ventricles from patients with different pathologies are rare and thus little is known about disease-induced cellular remodeling in both sides of the heart and between different diseases. We hypothesized that the protein expression profiles between right and left ventricles of patients with aortic valve stenosis (AVS) and patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) are different and that the protein profile is different between the two diseases. Left and right ventricular biopsies were collected from patients with either CAD or AVS. The biopsies were processed for proteomic analysis using isobaric tandem mass tagging and analyzed by reverse phase nano-LC-MS/MS. Western blot for selected proteins showed strong correlation with proteomic analysis. RESULTS:Proteomic analysis between ventricles of the same disease (intra-disease) and between ventricles of different diseases (inter-disease) identified more than 500 proteins detected in all relevant ventricular biopsies. Comparison between ventricles and disease state was focused on proteins with relatively high fold (±1.2 fold difference) and significant (P?

Project description:The aim of the present study was to investigate the differential expression of B‑type natriuretic peptide (BNP) between the left and right ventricle (RV) in sudden cardiac death (SCD). A total of 26 forensic autopsy cases of sudden death (survival time <30 min, postmortem interval <48 h or frozen within 6 h following death) in the present institute were examined. The cases consisted of acute ischemic heart disease (AIHD, n=15) with/without apparent myocardial necrosis as a sign of infarction (acute myocardial infarction, n=6; ischemic heart disease, IHD, n=9), and arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC/D, n=5), in addition to traffic accidents and high falls without any pre existing heart disease as control (C, total n=6). BNP was investigated in all cases by the colloidal gold method, hematoxylin‑eosin staining, immunohistochemistry (IHC) and the molecular pathological method. The IHC results demonstrated that a positive BNP immunostaining was detected in all groups; however, there was no difference between different causes of death. Pericardial N‑terminal (NT)‑proBNP concentration was significantly increased in deaths resulting from AIHD and ARVC/D compared with control group. The relative quantification of BNP mRNA demonstrated that relative expression levels of BNP mRNA were significantly increased in the left ventricle (LV) in the AIHD group, and in the RV of the ARVC/D group. The relative quantification difference and ratio of BNP mRNA between LV and RV demonstrated a significantly greater value in the AIHD group compared with control group. BNP mRNA in myocardium and NT‑proBNP concentration in pericardial fluid were elevated in SCD patients, and left ventricular dysfunction predominated in AIHD patients, whereas right ventricular dysfunction predominated in ARVC/D patients. The results of the present study suggest the possible use of molecular pathology of BNP for the determination of terminal cardiac function in SCD and analysis of its fatal mechanism in forensic practice.

Project description:BackgroundLeft ventricle (LV) and right ventricle (RV) are characterized by well-known physiological differences, mainly related to their different embryological origin, hemodynamic environment, function, structure, and cellular composition. Nevertheless, scarce information is available about cellular peculiarities between left and right ventricular chambers in physiological and pathological contexts. Cardiac mesenchymal stromal cells (C-MSC) are key cells affecting many functions of the heart. Differential features that distinguish LV from RV C-MSC are still underappreciated.AimTo analyze the physiological differential amount, function, and transcriptome of human C-MSC in LV versus (vs.) RV.MethodsHuman cardiac specimens of LV and RV from healthy donors were used for tissue analysis of C-MSC number, and for C-MSC isolation. Paired LV and RV C-MSC were compared as for surface marker expression, cell proliferation/death ratio, migration, differentiation capabilities, and transcriptome profile.ResultsHistological analysis showed a greater percentage of C-MSC in RV vs. LV tissue. Moreover, a higher C-MSC amount was obtained from RV than from LV after isolation procedures. LV and RV C-MSC are characterized by a similar proportion of surface markers. Functional studies revealed comparable cell growth curves in cells from both ventricles. Conversely, LV C-MSC displayed a higher apoptosis rate and RV C-MSC were characterized by a higher migration speed and collagen deposition. Consistently, transcriptome analysis showed that genes related to apoptosis regulation or extracellular matrix organization and integrins were over-expressed in LV and RV, respectively. Besides, we revealed additional pathways specifically associated with LV or RV C-MSC, including energy metabolism, inflammatory response, cardiac conduction, and pluripotency.ConclusionTaken together, these results contribute to the functional characterization of RV and LV C-MSC in physiological conditions. This information suggests a possible differential role of the stromal compartment in chamber-specific pathologic scenarios.
