Project description:The objective of this study was to identify genes differentially expressed between calcified bicuspid aortic valves (BAV) and tricuspid valves with (TAVc) and without (TAVn) aortic valve stenosis. Ten human BAV and nine TAVc were collected from male who underwent primary aortic valve replacement. Eight TAVn were obtained from male who underwent heart transplantation. mRNA levels were measured using Illumina HumanHT-12 v4 Expression BeadChip and compared between valve groups.

Project description:Exploring the mechanisms of valvular heart disease (VHD) at the cellular level may be useful to identify new therapeutic targets; however, the comprehensive cellular landscape of non-diseased human cardiac valve leaflets remains unclear. The cellular landscapes of non-diseased human cardiac valve leaflets (five aortic valves, five pulmonary valves, five tricuspid valves, and three mitral valves) from end-stage heart failure patients undergoing heart transplantation were explored using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq)

Project description:Purpose: Calcific aortic valve stenosis (AS) is a fatal disease with currently no medical therapy. Some genes were associated with AS, but the genetic architecture of the disease has yet to be discovered. The objective of this study was to combine genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and gene expression in human valve tissues to identify new susceptibility genes of AS. Methods: A meta-analysis was performed combining the results of two independent GWAS in 474 patients that underwent aortic valve replacement from Quebec city and 486 echocardiography cases from France. The controls consisted of 3,151 publically available individuals of European ancestry. Sixty-nine SNPs selected from the meta-analysis (p < 1 x 10-4) were followed-up for replication in a third cohort of 395 cases and 404 controls. Single marker and gene set association analyses were performed. The mRNA expression levels of susceptibility genes were evaluated in 19 human aortic valves with (n=9) and without (n=10) AS by RNA sequencing. Results: Single marker analysis identified 15 SNPs with p values lower than 1 x 10-6 in the meta-analysis near the FAR2 gene on chromosome 12. At the replication stage, none of these SNPs were confirmed and three other SNPs on chromosomes 2 and 5 reached p < 0.05. Gene set analysis revealed more meaningful association with the calcium signaling pathway enriched for genes mapped to disease-associated SNPs. Genes in this pathway including F2R, GNA14, HTR4, P2RX6, and TNNC1 were found differentially expressed in valves with and without AS. Conclusions: This integrative genomic study identified new AS susceptibility genes expressed in human valve tissue. Moderate but coordinated genetic association and expression patterns were observed for genes implicated in the calcium signaling pathway and may provide new therapeutic targets to treat this frequent and rising life-threatening disease. Samples of aortic valves were collected from 19 male patients undergoing aortic valve replacement surgery. RNA sequencing was performed using the Illumina Hiseq 2000. Three pairwise comparison among the two kind of valves were made.

Project description:Aims Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is a significant cause of illness and death worldwide. The disease mechanism involves age-associated immuno-osteogenic processes but developmental origins and early disease mechanisms are not fully characterized. Identification of early predictive markers could help optimize therapy decisions and patient follow-up. Methods and Results RNA-sequencing was carried out on human fetal aortic valves at weeks 9, 13, and 22, and adult control, calcified bicuspid (BAV) and tricuspid aortic valves (TAV). K-means clustering was implemented to identify co-expressed gene patterns simultaneously up- and down-regulated over the different conditions. Canonical pathway analysis revealed a predominant immune-metabolic gene signature indicative of ongoing innate and adaptive immune responses, including lymphocyte T-cell metabolic adaptation. Specifically, cytokine and chemokine signalling, cellular migration and proliferation, were all increased in CAVD, while oxidative phosphorylation and protein translation were decreased. Discrete immune-metabolic gene signatures were present at foetal stages and adult controls, indicating that inflammation initiates as soon as the valves are formed and is maintained and amplified during post-natal life. Multiple pathways involved in cellular stress response and neurodegenerative disease were also aberrantly expressed, suggesting that chronic inflammation drives metabolic stress- and age-associated valve pathology in CAVD. Comparing the valve RNA-sequencing dataset with whole blood transcriptomes from asymptomatic individuals with early aortic valve calcification identified a gene signature including the CD28 pathway, highly predictive of patients with CAVD and healthy individuals with moderate levels of aortic valve calcification. Conclusion These data deepen and broaden our understanding of the molecular basis of CAVD, and identify a gene signature for the early detection of aortic valve calcification.

Project description:Purpose: The molecular mechanisms leading to premature development of aortic valve stenosis (AS) in individuals with a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) are unknown. The objective of this study was to identify genes differentially expressed between calcified BAV and tricuspid valves with (TAVc) and without (TAVn) calcification using RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Methods: Ten human calcified BAV and nine TAVc were collected from men who underwent aortic valve replacement. Eight TAVn were obtained from men who underwent heart transplantation. mRNA levels were measured using the Illumina HiSeq 2000 system. Reads were aligned with TopHat. Cuffdiff, DESeq, edgeR, and SAMSeq were used to compare gene expression. Genes with adjusted P < 0.05 in the four methods were called differentially expressed. Pathway analysis was performed with IPA. Results: Two genes were up-regulated and none were down-regulated in BAV compared to TAVc. There were 462 genes up-regulated and 282 down-regulated in BAV compared to TAVn. Compared to TAVn, 329 genes were up- and 170 were down-regulated in TAVc. Conclusions: This is the first transcriptome study on calcified and normal aortic valves using RNA-Seq. BAV and TAVc have a highly similar expression profile. These results contribute to our molecular understanding of AS and the identification of new therapeutic targets that are urgently needed to prevent, slow the development or treat AS in patients with bicuspid and tricuspid valves.

Control non-calcified aortic valves with normal echocardiographic analyses were obtained during heart transplant procedures. RNA was extracted from valve leaflets and gene expression evaluated using the Arraystar Human mRNA Array. This study aimed to perform the expression analysis of mRNA on human aortic valves.

Project description:Although calcific aortic valve stenosis (CAVS) is the most prevalent valvular heart disease, the molecular mechanisms underlying aortic valve calcification remain unknown. Here, we found a significant elevation in stanniocalcin-1 (STC1) expression in the valve interstitial cells (VICs) of calcific aortic valves by combined analysis of our comprehensive gene expression data and microarray datasets reported previously. Immunohistochemical staining showed that STC1 was located around the calcific area in the aortic valves of patients with CAVS. In vitro experiments using inhibitors and siRNA targeting osteoblast differentiation signaling revealed that activation of the Akt/STC1 axis was essential for runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) induction in the VICs. RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis of STC1-knocked down VICs in osteoblast differentiation medium resulted in silencing of the induction of osteoarthritis signaling-related genes, including RUNX2 and COL10A1. STC1 depletion in the murine CAVS model improved aortic valve dysfunction with high peak velocity and valve thickening and suppressed the appearance of osteochondrocytes. STC1-deficient mice also exhibited complete calcification abolishment, although partial valve thickening by aortic valve injury was observed. Our findings suggest that STC1 may be a critical factor in determining valve calcification and a novel target for preventing the transition to severe CAVS with calcification. We analyzed the gene expression profiles of the valve interstitial cells (VICs) isolated from noncalcific and calcific areas in calcific aortic valve stenosis (CAVS) donors using a gene microarray.
