Exercise in adult zebrafish promotes ventricular cardiomyocyte proliferation in the regenerating heart

ABSTRACT: Exercise promotes a set of physiological adaptations known to provide long-term health benefits and it can play an important role in cardioprotection. However, the mechanisms underlying exercise-induced cardiac adaptation are not fully understood. In the present study, we examined cardiac adaptive responses to exercise training in the adult zebrafish and in the context of cardiac regeneration.We found that swimming-induced exercise increased cardiomyocyte proliferation and that this response was also found under regenerating conditions, when exercise was performed either prior to and after ventricular cryoinjury (CI). Exercise prior to CI resulted in a mild improvement in cardiac function and lesion recovery over the non-exercise condition.Transcriptomic profiling of regenerating ventricles in cryoinjured fish subjected to exercise revealed a differential regulation of genes related toregeneration as well as other biological processes potentially involved in the exercise response. Taken together, these results suggest that exercise constitutes a physiological stimulus thatmay help promote cardiomiogenic mechanisms of the vertebrate heart and that the zebrafish exercise model may be useful for evaluating the potential cardioprotective effects of exercise.

flt1 inactivation promotes zebrafish cardiac regeneration by enhancing endothelial activity and limiting the fibrotic response

Project description:VEGFA administration has been explored as a pro-angiogenic therapy for cardiovascular diseases including heart failure for several years; however, many challenges remain. Here we investigate a different approach to augmenting VEGFA bioavailability, one that achieves more physiological VEGFA concentrations by deleting VEGFR1/FLT1, a VEGFA decoy receptor. We find that, following cryoinjury, zebrafish flt1 mutant hearts display enhanced coronary revascularization and endocardial expansion, increased cardiomyocyte dedifferentiation and proliferation, and decreased scarring. Suppressing Vegfa signaling in flt1 mutants abrogates the beneficial effects of flt1 deletion. Transcriptomic analyses of cryoinjured flt1 mutant hearts revealed enhanced endothelial MAPK/ERK signaling and downregulation of the transcription factor gene egr3. Using genetic tools, we observe egr3 upregulation in the regenerating endocardium and find that Egr3 promotes myofibroblast differentiation. These data suggest that with enhanced VEGFA bioavailability, the cardiac endothelium limits myofibroblast differentiation via egr3 downregulation, thereby providing a more permissive microenvironment for cardiomyocyte replenishment after injury.

Transcription profiling of rat heart left ventricle after exercise to investigate the role of exercise as a known protective factor against cardiovascular morbidity and mortality

Project description:Physical exercise training is a known protective factor against cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Nevertheless, the underlying specific molecular mechanisms still remain uncompletely explored. To identify molecular mechanisms by which exercise training induces this favorable phenotype a genomic approach was used in an animal model of mild exercise previously demonstrated by our group to induce cardioprotection. Our data indicate that mild exercise by inducing no or few permanent changes in gene expression profile is able to determine cardioprotection without induction of cardiac hypertrophy. Experiment Overall Design: We investigated the gene expression profile by Affymetrix technology (230 2.0 GeneChip rat genome array) induced by mild exercise training (treadmill running: 25 m/min, 10% incline, 1 h/day, 3 days/week, 10 weeks) on left ventricle (LV) of exercise-trained (n=10) and sedentary control (n=10) rats.

Comparison of the expression profiles of kdrl:mCherry-positive cells in injured versus uninjured zebrafish cardiac ventricle and analysis of the expression prolife of postnb:citrin-positive cells upon injury compared to the rest of cardiac cells.

Project description:Contrary to mammals, zebrafish regenerate their heart upon cryoinjury of the cardiac ventricular apex. Regeneration is preceed by a fibrotic response. To understand the contribution of different cell sources to zebrafish cardiac fibrosis we performed an RNASeq including endocardial kdrl:mCherry cells from an uninjured heart, and activated endocardial kdrl:mCherry cells, postnb:citrine fibroblasts and the rest of the cells at 7 days post injury.

A paternal cardiac lesion induces cardiac adaptation in the offspring

Project description:Background: Following cardiac injury, whether the heart is permanently damaged or regenerating, distal organs are subjected to changes in physiological function. It remains largely unknown whether a cardiac lesion can affect gametes and transmit heritable changes to subsequent generations. Here, we report the influence of paternal cardiac injury on the following generation. Methods: We studied the intergenerational influence of neonatal cardiac injury in the mouse. Neonatal male mice were subjected to ventricular cryoinjury, crossed at adulthood, and their sires were compared with litters derived from uninjured male mice. We used echocardiography, histology, and single nuclei RNA-sequencing to thoroughly characterize cardiac morphology, composition, function, and response to cardiac insult. Results: We show that paternal cardiac injury affects the heart morphology of offspring under physiological conditions. Furthermore, in response to the same injury, the F1 generation derived from injured fathers shows better systemic and cardiac recovery, with non-pathological left ventricular enlargement and improved cardiac function. This is accompanied by the activation of the immune system healing program at 3 weeks post-injury, together with enhanced transcription of genes associated with physiological hypertrophy. Conclusions: The memory of a paternal neonatal lesion can be transmitted to offspring and improve their recovery from a cardiac insult.

These results provide novel insights into the mechanisms underlying the BAT-cardiomyocyte interaction and highlight BAT sEVs and their contained miRNAs as alternative candidates for exercise cardioprotection.

Distinct epicardial gene regulatory programmes drive development and regeneration of the zebrafish heart

Project description:Unlike the adult mammalian heart, which has limited regenerative capacity, the zebrafish heart can fully regenerate following injury. Reactivation of cardiac developmental programmes is considered key to successfully regenerating the heart, yet the regulatory elements underlying the response triggered upon injury and during development remain elusive. Organ-wide activation of the epicardium is essential for zebrafish heart regeneration and is considered a potential regenerative source to target in the mammalian heart. Here we compared the transcriptome and epigenome of the developing and regenerating zebrafish epicardium by integrating gene expression profiles with open chromatin ATAC-seq data. We identified epicardial enhancer elements with specific activity during development or during adult heart regeneration. By generating gene regulatory networks associated with epicardial development and regeneration, we inferred genetic programmes driving each of these processes, which were largely distinct. We identified Wt1a, Wt1b, and the AP-1 subunits Junbb, Fosab and Fosb as central regulators of the developing network, whereas Hif1ab, Nrf1, Tbx2b and Zbtb7a featured as putative central regulators of the regenerating epicardial network. Targeting hif1ab, nrf1, tbx2b and zbtb7a using CRISPR/Cas9 in injured hearts resulted in elevated epicardial cell numbers infiltrating the wound and excess fibrosis after cryoinjury, illustrating the functional importance of these regulatory factors during zebrafish heart regeneration. Our work reveals striking differences between the regulatory blueprint deployed during epicardial development and regeneration. These findings underline that heart regeneration goes beyond the reactivation of developmental programmes and provide important insights into epicardial regulation.
