Project description:Aortic banding is an excellent model system to evaluate the process of development of left ventricular hypertrophy in response to hemodynamic stress. The Affymetrix GeneChip MgU74Av1 was used to analyze expression profiles of mice at different time points after surgical intervention for pressure-overload induced hypertrophy. More information about this model may be obtained at http://cardiogenomics.med.harvard.edu/groups/proj1/pages/band_home.html Keywords = Pressure overload, cardiac hypertrophy Keywords: time-course

Project description:In this study, we mapped modification of lysine 4 and lysine 27 of histone H3 genome-wide in a series of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) varying in DNA methylation levels based on knock-out and reconstitution of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs). We extend previous studies showing cross-talk between DNA methylation and histone modifications by examining a breadth of histone modifications, causal relationships, and direct effects. Our data shows a causal regulation of H3K27me3 at gene promoters as well as H3K27ac and H3K27me3 at tissue-specific enhancers. We also identify isoform differences between DNMT family members. This study provides a comprehensive resource for the study of the complex interplay between DNA methylation and histone modification landscape. Reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) performed on wild-type, Dnmt triple knock-out (Dnmt1/3a/3b; TKO), Dnmt double knock-out (Dnmt3a/3b; DKO), and respective reconstitution mouse embryonic stem cell lines.

Project description:AlphaB-crystallin (CryAB) is the most abundant small heat shock protein (HSP) constitutively expressed in cardiomyocytes. Gain- and loss-of-function studies demonstrated that CryAB can protect against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury. However, the role of CryAB or any HSPs in cardiac responses to mechanical overload is unknown. This study addresses this issue. Nontransgenic mice and mice with cardiomyocyte-restricted transgenic overexpression of CryAB or with germ-line ablation of the CryAB/HSPB2 genes were subjected to transverse aortic constriction or sham surgery. Two weeks later, cardiac responses were analyzed by fetal gene expression profiling, cardiac function analyses, and morphometry. Comparison among the 3 sham surgery groups reveals that CryAB overexpression is benign, whereas the knockout is detrimental to the heart as reflected by cardiac hypertrophy and malfunction at 10 weeks of age. Compared to nontransgenic mice, transgenic mouse hearts showed significantly reduced NFAT transactivation and attenuated cardiac hypertrophic responses to transverse aortic constriction but unchanged cardiac function, whereas NFAT transactivation was significantly increased in cardiac and skeletal muscle of the knockout mice at baseline, and they developed cardiac insufficiency at 2 weeks after transverse aortic constriction. CryAB overexpression in cultured neonatal rat cardiomyocytes significantly attenuated adrenergic stimulation-induced NFAT transactivation and hypertrophic growth. We conclude that CryAB suppresses cardiac hypertrophic responses likely through attenuating NFAT signaling and that CryAB and/or HSPB2 are essential for normal cardiac function.

Project description:Atherosclerosis preferentially occurs in arterial regions of disturbed blood flow (d-flow), which alters gene expression, endothelial function, and atherosclerosis. Here, we show that d-flow regulates genome-wide DNA methylation patterns in a DNA methyltransferase (DNMT)-dependent manner. D-flow induced expression of DNMT1 in mouse arterial endothelium in vivo and in cultured endothelial cells by oscillatory shear (OS) in vitro. The DNMT inhibitor 5-Aza-2’deoxycytidine (5Aza) or DNMT1 siRNA significantly reduced OS-induced endothelial inflammation. Moreover, 5Aza reduced lesion formation in two ApoE-/- mouse atherosclerosis models. To identify the 5Aza mechanisms, we conducted two genome-wide studies: reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) and microarray using endothelial-enriched gDNA and RNA, respectively, from the partially-ligated left carotid artery (LCA exposed to d-flow) and the right contralateral control (RCA) of mice treated with 5Aza or vehicle. Systems biological analyses using RRBS and transcriptome data revealed 11 mechanosensitive genes whose promoters were hypermethylated under d-flow conditions, but rescued by 5Aza treatment. Of those, the two transcription factors HoxA5 and Klf3 contain cAMP- response-elements, and their methylation status could serve as a mechanosensitive master switch in gene expression. Our results demonstrate that d-flow controls epigenomic DNA methylation patterns in a DNMT-dependent manner, which in turn alters endothelial gene expression and induces atherosclerosis.

Project description:Evidence from human and animal studies has documented elevated levels of lysosomal cysteine protease cathepsin K in failing hearts. Here, we hypothesized that ablation of cathepsin K mitigates pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy. Cathepsin K knockout mice and their wild-type littermates were subjected to abdominal aortic constriction, resulting in cardiac remodeling (heart weight, cardiomyocyte size, left ventricular wall thickness, and end diastolic and end systolic dimensions) and decreased fractional shortening, the effects of which were significantly attenuated or ablated by cathepsin K knockout. Pressure overload dampened cardiomyocyte contractile function along with decreased resting Ca2+ levels and delayed Ca2+ clearance, which were partly resolved by cathepsin K knockout. Cardiac mammalian target of rapamycin and extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) signaling cascades were upregulated by pressure overload, the effects of which were attenuated by cathepsin K knockout. In cultured H9c2 myoblast cells, silencing of cathepsin K blunted, whereas cathepsin K transfection mimicked phenylephrine-induced hypertrophic response, along with elevated phosphorylation of mammalian target of rapamycin and ERK. In addition, cathepsin K protein levels were markedly elevated in human hearts of end-stage dilated cardiomyopathy. Collectively, our data suggest that cathepsin K ablation mitigates pressure overload-induced hypertrophy, possibly via inhibition of the mammalian target of rapamycin and ERK pathways.

Project description:Background: Researching the murine epigenome in disease models has been hampered by the lack of an appropriate and cost-effective DNA methylation array. Until recently, investigators have been limited to the relatively expensive and analysis intensive bisulphite sequencing methods. Here, we performed a comprehensive, comparative analysis between the new Mouse Methylation BeadChip (MMB) and reduced representation bisulphite sequencing (RRBS) in two murine models of colorectal carcinogenesis, providing insight into the utility to each platforms in a real world environment. Results: We captured 1.47x106 CpGs by RRBS and 2.64x105 CpGs by MMB, mapping to 13,778 and 13,365 CpG islands, respectively. RRBS captured significantly more CpGs per island (median 41 for RRBS versus 2 for MMB). We found that 64.4% of intra-island CpG methylation variability can be captured by measuring approximately one quarter of CpG island (CGI) CpGs. MMB was more precise in measuring DNA methylation, especially at sites that had low RRBS coverage. This impacted differential methylation analysis, with more statistically significantly differentially methylated CpG sites identified by MMB in all experimental conditions, however the difference was minute when appropriate thresholding for the magnitude of methylation change (0.2 beta value difference) was applied, providing confidence that both techniques can identify similar differential DNA methylation. Gene ontology enrichment analysis of differentially hypermethylated gene promoters identified similar biological processes and pathways by both RRBS and MMB across two murine model systems. Conclusion: MMB is an effective tool for profiling the murine methylome that performs comparably to RRBS, identifying similar differentially methylated pathways. Although MMB captures a similar proportion of CpG islands, it does so with fewer CpGs per island. We show that subsampling informative CpGs from CpG islands is an appropriate strategy to capture whole island variation. Choice of technology is experiment dependent and will be predicated on the underlying biology being probed.
