Activation of ERRγ enhances mitochondrial and sarcomere maturation in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes

ABSTRACT: We identified two cardiac maturation stimulators from 9,048 compounds using Troponin I1 (TNNI1) and Troponin I3 (TNNI3) double reporter hiPSC-derived CMs. An estrogen-related receptor gamma (ERRγ)-specific agonist increased the size of hiPSC-CMs and their mitochondrial content and enhanced their mitochondrial function. In addition, combination of this agonist with an inhibitor of S-phase kinase-associated protein 2 (SKP2) increased the TNNI3 expression more highly than previous methods and enhanced cardiac maturation-related gene expression profiles.

Physiological Calcium Combined with Electrical Pacing accelerates Maturation of Human Engineered Heart Tissue

Project description:Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have wide potential application in basic research, drug discovery, and regenerative medicine, but functional maturation remains challenging. Here, we present a simple method whereby maturation of hiPSC-CMs can be accelerated by simultaneous application of physiological Ca 2+ and frequency-ramped electrical pacing in culture. This combination produces realistic force-frequency relationship, physiological twitch kinetics, robust β-adrenergic response, improved Ca 2+ handling, and cardiac troponin I expression within 25 days. This study provides insights into the role of Ca 2+ in hiPSC-CM maturation and offers a scalable platform for translational and clinical research.

Dual inhibition of MAPK and PI3K/AKT pathways enhances maturation of human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes

Project description:Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) provide great opportunities for mechanistic dissection of human cardiac pathophysiology; however, hiPSC-CMs remain immature relative to the adult heart. To identify novel signaling pathways driving the maturation process during heart development, we analyzed published transcriptional and epigenetic datasets from hiPSC-CMs, prenatal and postnatal human hearts. These analyses revealed that several components of the MAPK and PI3K-AKT pathways are downregulated in the postnatal heart. Here, we show that dual inhibition of these pathways for only 5 days significantly enhances the maturation of day-30 hiPSC-CMs in many domains: hypertrophy, multinucleation, metabolism, t-tubule density, calcium handling, and electrophysiology, many equivalent to day-60 hiPSC-CMs. These data indicate that the MAPK/PI3K/AKT pathways are involved in cardiomyocyte maturation and provide proof-of-concept for the manipulation of key signaling pathways for optimal hiPSC-CM maturation, a critical aspect of faithful in vitro modeling of cardiac pathologies and subsequent drug discovery.

Human-iPSC-Derived Cardiac Stromal Cells Enhance Maturation in 3D Cardiac Microtissues and Reveal Non-cardiomyocyte Contributions to Heart Disease

Project description:Cardiomyocytes (CMs) from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are functionally immature, but this is improved by incorporation into engineered tissues or forced contraction. Here, we showed that tri-cellular combinations of hiPSC-derived CMs, cardiac fibroblasts (CFs), and cardiac endothelial cells also enhance maturation in easily constructed, scaffold-free, three-dimensional microtissues (MTs). hiPSC-CMs in MTs with CFs showed improved sarcomeric structures with T-tubules, enhanced contractility, and mitochondrial respiration and were electrophysiologically more mature than MTs without CFs. Interactions mediating maturation included coupling between hiPSC-CMs and CFs through connexin 43 (CX43) gap junctions and increased intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP). Scaled production of thousands of hiPSC-MTs was highly reproducible across lines and differentiated cell batches. MTs containing healthy-control hiPSC-CMs but hiPSC-CFs from patients with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy strikingly recapitulated features of the disease. Our MT model is thus a simple and versatile platform for modeling multicellular cardiac diseases that will facilitate industry and academic engagement in high-throughput molecular screening.

Glycogen Synthase Kinase-3 Inhibition and Insulin Synergistically Enhance Proliferation and Inhibit Maturation of Human iPSC-derived Cardiomyocytes via TCF and FOXO Signaling

Project description:Embryonic signaling pathways exert stage-specific effects during cardiac development, yet the precise cues for proliferation or maturation remain elusive. To address this, we utilized spontaneously beating human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) at day 12 of differentiation and performed a combinatory screen for various dosages of the glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK3) inhibitor CHIR99021 and Insulin for the analysis of cell cycle in hiPSC-CMs. Our combinatory screen for proliferation, subsequential downstream sarcomere development and RNA-seq analyses for Insulin/Akt and CHIR99021/Wnt demonstrate synergistic effects on proliferation of immature hiPSC-CMs. Conversely, removal of the Wnt and Insulin stimuli leads to rapid cell cycle exit and facilitates the terminal differentiation of immature hiPSC-CMs. Detailed characterization reveals that Wnt/CHIR99021, but not Insulin, regulates sarcomere homeostasis and architecture of immature hiPSC-CMs. Moreover, we further identify a temporal interplay between CHIR99021/Wnt via TCF and Insulin via FoxO signaling as regulators between proliferation and maturation in immature hiPSC-CMs. This work describes the cues that control proliferation versus terminal differentiation in functional immature hiPSC-CMs, and provides molecular mechanistic understanding between proliferation and maturation development of hiPSC-CMs.

Heart Failure Associated Changes in Alternative Splicing of Sarcomere Genes

Project description:Alternative mRNA splicing is an important mechanism for regulation of gene expression. Changes in gene expression contribute to the pathogenesis of heart failure. However, changes in mRNA splicing have not been systematically examined in heart disease. We hypothesized that mRNA splicing is changed in diseased hearts. We used the Affymetrix exon array, which separately measures expression of each known and computationally predicted exon, to globally evaluate changes in mRNA splicing in left ventricular myocardial RNA from control and ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) patients. We found that mRNA splicing is systematically changed in heart failure. RTPCR validated 9 previously unreported alternative splicing events. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the splicing of four key sarcomere genes, cardiac troponin T (TNNT2), cardiac troponin I (TNNI3), myosin heavy chain 7 (MYH7), and filamin C (FLNC), was significantly altered in ICM. Altered splicing of these genes in heart disease was confirmed in independent ICM samples, and in dilated cardiomyopathy and aortic stenosis. The minor variant fraction of these five genes was sufficient to classify samples into control or disease groups with 95% accuracy. Our data indicate that alternative splicing is systematically altered in human heart disease, suggesting that disease-associated perturbation of RNA splicing may contribute to the pathogenesis and development of heart failure. Disease-related changes in splicing of sarcomere genes may directly impact cardiomyocyte function.

Regulation of sarcomere formation and function in the healthy heart requires a titin intronic enhancer [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Heterozygous truncating variants in the sarcomere protein titin (TTN) are the most common genetic cause of heart failure. To understand mechanisms that regulate abundant cardiomyocyte TTN expression we characterized highly conserved intron 1 sequences that exhibited dynamic changes in chromatin accessibility during differentiation of human cardiomyocytes from induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC-CMs). Homozygous deletion of these sequences in mice caused embryonic lethality, while heterozygous mice demonstrated allele-specific reduction in Ttn expression. A 296 bp fragment of this element, denoted E1, was sufficient to drive the expression of a reporter gene in hiPSC-CMs. Deletion of E1 downregulated TTN expression, impaired sarcomerogenesis, and decreased contractility in hiPSC-CMs. Site-directed mutagenesis of predicted NKX2-5- and MEF2-binding sites within E1 abolished its transcriptional activity. Embryonic mice expressing E1 reporter gene constructs validated in vivo cardiac-specific activity of E1 and the requirement for NKX2-5 and MEF2 binding sequences. Moreover, isogenic hiPSC-CMs containing a rare E1 variant in the predicted MEF2 binding motif that was identified in a patient with unexplained DCM showed reduced TTN expression. Together, these discoveries define an essential, functional enhancer that regulates TTN expression. Manipulation of this element may advance therapeutic strategies to treat DCM caused by TTN haploinsufficiency.
