Deletion of Nkx2-5 in trabecular myocardium reveals the developmental origins of pathological heterogeneity associated with ventricular non-compaction cardiomyopathy

ABSTRACT: Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is a rare cardiomyopathy associated with a hypertrabeculated phenotype and a large spectrum of symptoms. The developmental origins and mechanistic basis of varying severity of this pathology are unknown. To investigate these issues, we inactivated the cardiac transcription factor Nkx2-5 in trabecular myocardium at different stages of trabecular morphogenesis. Conditional deletion of Nkx2-5 at embryonic stages, during trabecular formation, provokes a severe hypertrabeculated phenotype associated with subendocardial fibrosis and Purkinje fiber hypoplasia. A milder phenotype was observed after Nkx2-5 deletion at fetal stages, during trabecular compaction. A longitudinal study of cardiac function in adult Nkx2-5 conditional mutant mice demonstrates that excessive trabeculation is associated with complex ventricular conduction defects, progressively leading to strain defects, and, in 50% of mutant mice, to heart failure. Progressive impaired cardiac function correlates with conduction and strain defects independently of the degree of hypertrabeculation. Transcriptomic analysis of molecular pathways reflects myocardial remodeling with a larger number of differentially expressed genes in the severe versus mild phenotype and identifies Six1 as a marker upregulated in hypertrabeculated hearts. Our results provide insights into the etiology of LVNC and link its pathogenicity with compromised trabecular development including compaction defects and ventricular conduction system hypoplasia.

Mutations in the NOTCH pathway regulator MIB1 cause left ventricular noncompaction cardiomyopathy

Project description:Left ventricular noncompaction (LVNC) Causes prominent ventricular trabeculations and reduces cardiac systolic function. The clinical presentation of LVNC ranges from asymptomatic to heart failure. We show that germline mutations in human MIB1 (mindbomb homolog 1), which encodes an E3 ubiquitin ligase that promotes endocytosis of the NOTCH ligands DELTA and JAGGED, cause LVNC in autosomal-dominant pedigrees, with affected individuals showing reduced NOTCH1 activity and reduced expression of target genes. Functional studies in cells and zebrafish embryos and in silico modeling indicate that MIB1 functions as a dimer, which is disrupted by the human mutations. Targeted inactivation of Mib1 in mouse myocardium causes LVNC, a phenotype mimicked by inactivation of myocardial Jagged1 or endocardial Notch1. Myocardial Mib1 mutants show reduced ventricular Notch1 activity, expansion of compact myocardium to proliferative, immature trabeculae and abnormal expression of cardiac development and disease genes. These results implicate NOTCH signaling in LVNC and indicate that MIB1 mutations arrest chamber myocardium development, preventing trabecular maturation and compaction. RNA was isolated from the ventricles of 16 WT and 16 Mib1flox; CTnT-cre hearts at E14.5 and then pooled into four replicates.

Oligogenic inheritance of congenital heart disease involving a NKX2-5 modifier [human]

Project description:Complex genetic inheritance is thought to underlie many human diseases, yet experimental proof of this model has been elusive. Here, we show that a human congenital heart defect, left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC), can be caused by a combination of rare, inherited heterozygous missense single nucleotide variants. Whole exome sequencing of a nuclear family revealed novel single nucleotide variants of MYH7 and MKL2 in an asymptomatic father while the offspring with severe childhood-onset LVNC harbored an additional missense variant in the cardiac transcription factor, NKX2-5, inherited from an unaffected mother. Mice bred to compound heterozygosity for the orthologous missense variants in Myh7 and Mkl2 had mild cardiac pathology; the additional inheritance of the Nkx2-5 variant yielded a more severe LVNC-like phenotype in triple compound heterozygotes. RNA sequencing identified genes associated with endothelial and myocardial development that were dysregulated in hearts from triple heterozygote mice and human induced pluripotent stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes harboring the three variants, with evidence for NKX2-5’s contribution as a modifier on the molecular level. These studies demonstrate that the deployment of efficient gene editing tools can provide experimental evidence for complex inheritance of human disease.

A human hereditary cardiomyopathy shares a genetic substrate with bicuspid aortic valve

Project description:The complex genetics underlying human cardiac disease is evidenced by its heterogenous manifestation, multigenic basis and sporadic occurrence. These features have hampered disease modelling and mechanistic understanding. Here, we show that two structural cardiac diseases, left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) and bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), can be caused by a combined set of inherited heterozygous mutations. We used CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing to generate mice harboring two mutations in the NOTCH ligand regulator MINDBOMB1 identified in LVNC families. One Mib1 mutation causes LVNC only in heteroallelic combination with a conditional Mib1 allele, while the other leads to BAV in a NOTCH-sensitized genetic background. These data suggest that the LVNC phenotype may be influenced by genetic modifiers present in these families, while valve defects are very sensitive to NOTCH haploinsufficiency. Whole-exome sequencing revealed single-nucleotide variants in the ASXL3, APCDD1 and TMX3, CEP192 and BCL7A genes, co-segregating with the MIB1 mutations and LVNC. We generated mice harboring the orthologous variants in the corresponding Mib1 backgrounds. Triple heterozygous Mib1 Apcdd1 Asxl3 mutants show LVNC, while quadruple heterozygous Mib1 Cep192 Tmx3;Bcl7a mice show BAV and other valve-associated defects. Biochemical assays suggest interactions between CEP192, BCL7A and NOTCH. Gene profiling of murine hearts and human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes reveals defective metabolic maturation. These findings provide evidence for a common genetic substrate for LVNC and BAV involving MIB1 and genetic modifiers

mCasz1_conditional knockout

Project description:The overall goal of our studies is to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanism by which the transcription factor Casz1 functions in murine heart development. We established that Casz1 is expressed in myocardial progenitor cells beginning at E7.5 and in differentiated cardiomyocytes throughout development. We generated conditional Casz1 knockout mice to show that ablation of CASZ1 in Nkx2.5-positive cardiomyocytes leads to cardiac hypoplasia, ventricular septal defects and lethality by E13.5. To identify the pathways and networks by which Casz1 regulates cardiomyocyte development, we used RNA-Seq and identified genes involved in cell proliferation are upregulated in Casz1 mutants compared to wild-type littermates. We conclude that Casz1 is essential for cardiac development and has a pivotal role in regulating part of the cardiac transcriptional program. 3 biological replicates of the two genotypes (Nkx2-5+/+,Casz1f/+ and Nkx2-5Cre/+,Casz1f/f) were used for RNA-seq to determine genes that are differentially expressed in the murine heart when Casz1 is mutated. Nkx2-5+/+,Casz1f/+ were used as wild-type controls for comparison.

hiPSCs unravel aberrant TGFβ signaling as an etiology of left ventricular non-compaction

Project description:Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is the third most prevalent cardiomyopathy in children and has a unique phenotype with characteristically extensive hypertrabeculation of the left ventricle, similar to the embryonic left ventricle, suggesting a developmental defect of the embryonic myocardium. However, studying this disease has been challenging due to the lack of an animal model that can faithfully recapitulate the clinical phenotype of LVNC. To address this, we show that patient-specific hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) generated from a family with LVNC recapitulated a developmental defect consistent with the LVNC phenotype at the single-cell level. We then utilized hiPSC-CMs to show that increased transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) signaling is one of the central mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of LVNC. LVNC hiPSC-CMs demonstrated decreased proliferative capacity due to abnormal activation of TGFβ signaling. Exome sequencing demonstrated a mutation in TBX20, which regulates TGFβ signaling, contributing to the LVNC phenotype. Our results demonstrate that hiPSC-CMs are a useful tool for the exploration of novel mechanisms underlying poorly understood cardiomyopathies such as LVNC. Here we provide the first evidence of activation of TGF signaling as playing a role in the pathogenesis of LVNC.

Transcription profiling of mouse second field myocardium Gata4flox/+ Nkx2-5+/+ (control, n=3), Gata4flox/+ Nkx2-5Cre/+ (Gata4 Nkx2-5 double heterozygous animals reveals GATA4 is a direct activator of Cyclin D2 and is required for proliferation in 2nd heart field-derived myocardium

Project description:The second heart field (SHF) comprises a population of mesodermal progenitor cells that are added to the nascent linear heart to give rise to the majority of the right ventricle, interventricular septum, and outflow tract of mammals and birds. The zinc finger transcription factor GATA4 functions as an integral member of the cardiac transcription factor network in the SHF and its derivatives. In addition to its role in cardiac differentiation, GATA4 is also required for cardiomyocyte replication, although the transcriptional targets of GATA4 required for proliferation have not been previously identified. In the present study, we disrupted Gata4 function exclusively in the SHF and its derivatives. Gata4 SHF knockout mice die by embryonic day 13.5 and exhibit hypoplasia of the right ventricular myocardium and interventricular septum and display profound ventricular septal defects. Loss of Gata4 function in the SHF results in decreased myocyte proliferation in the right ventricle, and we identify numerous cell cycle genes that are dependent on Gata4 by microarray analysis. We show that Gata4 is required for Cyclin D2 expression in the right ventricle and that the Cyclin D2 promoter is bound and activated by GATA4 via three consensus GATA binding sites. These findings establish Cyclin D2 as a direct transcriptional target of GATA4 and support a model in which GATA4 controls cardiomyocyte proliferation by coordinately regulating numerous cell cycle genes. Experiment Overall Design: Onewat ANOVA with post-hoc was done with 3 genotypes with replicates. Three genetypes are Gata4flox/+; Nkx2-5+/+ (control, n=3), Gata4flox/+; Nkx2-5Cre/+ (Gata4; Nkx2-5 double heterozygous, Experiment Overall Design: 170 n=3), and Gata4flox/flox; Nkx2-5Cre/+ (Gata4 CKONkx, n=5).
