Project description:Mutations in the LMNA gene causes set of disorders collectively referred to as laminopathies that include dilated cardiomyopathy. Lamin A/C proteins a components of nuclear lamina forms distinct nuclear domains called lamina associated domains (LADs). The roles of LADs in DCM is not known. To identify LADs and characterize their associations with CpG methylation and gene expression in human cardiac myocytes isolated from patients with DCM and controls we performed Chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-Seq), reduced representative bisulfite sequencing (RRBS), and RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) in 5 control and 5 DCM hearts with defined pathogenic variants in the LMNA gene. LADs are redistributed in DCM, are associated with CpG methylation and suppressed transcription, contributing to the pathogenesis of DCM in laminopathies.

Project description:Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a severe, non-ischemic heart disease, which ultimately results in heart failure (HF). Pathological genetic variants in LMNA cause DCM, which currently lacks specific treatment. Perturbing candidates related to dysregulated pathways have shown to ameliorate LMNA DCM, but their long-term efficacy as potential therapeutic targets is unknown. Here, we evaluated 14 potential candidates including Lmna gene products, key signaling pathways, calcium handling, proliferation regulators and Lamin interacting proteins, in a cardiac-specific Lmna DCM model. The candidates with improved cardiac function were further assessed through survival analysis. After comparing cardiac function, marker gene expression, Tgfβ signaling pathway activation, fibrosis, inflammation, proliferation, and DNA damage, we uncovered that restored cardiac function significantly correlated with suppression of HF/fibrosis marker expression and cardiac fibrosis in Lmna DCM. Interestingly, Lamin C or Sun1 shRNA administration achieved consistent, prolonged survival which highly correlated with reduced heart inflammation and DNA damage. In addition to Sun1 shRNA, perturbing the interaction between the nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton via the KASH domain of Nesprin1 also effectively suppressed Lmna DCM. In contrast, Lamin A supplementation did not rescue long term survival and may impart a detrimental cardiotoxicity risk. Furthermore, transcriptome profiling was used to compare the differences between Lamin A and Lamin C treatment. Mechanistically, we identified that this lapse was attributed to a dose-dependent toxicity of Lamin A, which was independent of its maturation. This study highlights the potential for advancing Lamin C and Sun1 as therapeutic targets for the treatment of LMNA DCM.

Project description:LMNA-Related DCM involves cardiomyocyte dysfunction resulting in heart failure or sudden death. It is caused by LMNA mutations encoding Lamin A/C defects involved in nuclear integrity and gene expression. To investigate possible mechanisms, we used iPSC derived from a LMNA c.357-2A>G Patient and her unaffected sister. We differentiated iPSC and conducted scRNA-seq for 4 Patient and 8 Control samples across seven time points from Day 0 to 30. Using a comprehensive bioinformatics workflow, we identified 110,521 high-quality cells and complex heterogeneity: ten main cell types, possible subtypes, and lineage bifurcation for Cardiac Progenitors to Cardiomyocytes and Epicardium-Derived Cells (EPDC). By comparative analyses, we found differentially expressed genes (DEG) and enrichment supporting pathway dysregulation for ZNF genes and RNA polymerase II transcription in Pluripotent cells; BMP4 and TGF Beta/BMP signaling, sarcomere genes and cardiogenesis, CDH2 and EMT in Cardiomyocytes; LMNA and epigenetic regulation and DDIT4 and mTORC1 signaling in EPDC. In addition, top DEG included XIST, six imprinted genes, and gene sets in metabolism, proliferation, and homeostasis. We confirmed Lamin A/C haploinsufficiency by allelic expression and Western blot. Our evidence supports disruption of epigenomic developmental programs in LMNA-Related DCM and also demonstrates current challenges of LMNA disease modeling using Patient-derived iPSC.

Project description:Lamin A/C proteins, encoded by the LMNA gene, are intermediate filament proteins of the nuclear lamina, and predominantly expressed in differentiated cells including cardiomyocytes. Mutations in LMNA are associated with laminopathies, congenital diseases affecting muscle and homeostasis. One of the laminopathies associated with a missense mutation (N195K) in the A-type lamins results in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) with arrhythmias and sudden death. However it is unknown how the mutation in this LMNA gene contributes to the mechanism of arrhythmia and sudden death. To investigate this a mouse line expressing the Lmna-N195K (LmnaN195K/N195K) was used. Mutant mice demonstrated reduced fractional shortening, LV mass, wall thickness and dilated cardiomyopathy by echocardiography at 6 weeks consistent with human DCM, and died at an early age (6-7 weeks). Comparative cDNA microarray analysis from LmnaN195K/N195K and the wild type (WT) control ventricles at 6 weeks age revealed significant alterations in the expression of ion channels, transporter proteins, caveolins and associated proteins such as MAP kinases. Transmission electron microscopy analysis showed structural alterations of the ventricular myocytes with increase in number of caveolae. Quantitative Western blot analysis confirmed reduced expression for Cavβ (2 fold) subunits of the L-type Ca2+ channel. In contrast the expression levels of Cav3 (2.5 fold) was significantly increased. To investigate the functional impact of Lmna N195K on the ICa,L, we transiently expressed either the WT LMNA+GFP, Lmna N195K+GFP or GFP (control) in isolated neonatal mouse ventricular myocytes and performed whole cell patch clamp analysis. Transient expression of Lmna N195K significantly reduced (58 %) peak ICa,L (-6.0 ± 2 pA/pF, n=9) compared to GFP control (-14 ± 2 pA/pF, n=8). Expression of WT LMNA did not affect the ICa,L (-14.2 ± 2.5 pA/pF, n=8) compared to control. Conclusion: We conclude that Lmna N195K mutation results in reduced expression of ion channels and scaffolding proteins in the left ventricle with a significant reduction in peak ICa,L in ventricular myocytes and these may contribute to the mechanism of arrhythmia and dilated cardiomyopathy. 6 samples

Project description:Lamins are type V intermediate filament proteins underlying the inner nuclear membrane which provide structural rigidity to the nucleus, tether the chromosomes and maintain nuclear homeostasis. Studies have identified developmentally regulated regions of the genome that are dynamically associated with the nuclear lamina. A large number of mutations in LMNA gene encoding lamin A/C results in a wide array of human diseases, collectively termed as laminopathies. Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one such cardiovascular disease which is associated with systolic dysfunction of left or both ventricles leading to cardiac arrhythmia culminating into myocardial infarction. In this work, we have unravelled the gene expression by RNA Sequencing analysis in mouse myoblast cell line in the context of the missense mutation LMNA 289A>G (Lys97Glu) that is found in DCM afflicted patients with severe symptoms.

Project description:Background: Lamins A/C (encoded by the LMNA gene) can lead to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Objectives: This study sought to undertake proteomic analysis of myocardial tissue to explore the postgenomic phenotype of end-stage lamin heart disease. Methods: Consecutive patients with end-stage lamin heart disease (LMNA-group, n=7) and ischaemic DCM (ICM-group, n=7) undergoing heart transplantation were enrolled. Samples were obtained from left atrium(LA), left ventricle(LV), right atrium(RA), right ventricle(RV) and interventricular septum(IVS). Liquid chromatography combined with mass-spectrometry was used for protein quantification. We compared protein concentrations in cardiac samples between LMNA and ICM groups. Proteins were considered differentially abundant if the quantitative difference was 1.5-fold and corrected p-value <0.05 at a false discovery rate of 0.01. Gene ontology(GO) enrichment analysis explored the related biological processes. Results: 4,247 proteins were identified in LMNA and ICM samples, of which 633 were differentially abundant in LA, 39 in LV, 181 in RA, 52 in RV, and 85 in IVS. Abundance of lamin A/C was reduced but lamin B (LMNB) increased in LMNA LA/RA tissue compared to ICM, but not in LV/RV. Transthyretin was more abundant in the LV/RV of LMNA compared to ICM while sarcomeric proteins such as titin and cardiac myosin heavy chain were generally reduced in RA/LA of LMNA. Protein expression profiling and GO enrichment analysis revealed sarcopenia, extracellular matrix(ECM) remodeling, deficient myocardial energetics, redox imbalances, and abnormal calcium handling in LMNA samples. Conclusion: Lamin heart disease is a biventricular and biatrial disease, characterized by sarcopenia, aberrant metabolism, and ECM remodeling. LMNB and transthyretin were unexpectedly abundant in the atria and ventricles respectively of patients with end-stage lamin heart disease potentially hinting to the possibility of compensatory responses.

Project description:Mutations in LMNA, encoding Lamin A/C, lead to a variety of diseases known as laminopathies that include dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). The role of epigenetic mechanisms. such as DNA methylation, has not been thoroughly investigated. Furthermore, the impact of patient-specific LMNA mutations on DNA methylation is unknown. To explore the role of DNA methylation in the context of unique LMNA mutations, we performed reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) on ten pairs of fibroblasts and their induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derivatives from two families with DCM due to distinct LMNA mutations. Family-specific differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified by comparing the DNA methylation landscape of patient and control samples. Fibroblast DMRs were found to enrich for distal regulatory features and transcriptionally repressed chromatin and to associate with genes related to phenotypes found in laminopathies. These DMRs, in combination with transcriptome-wide expression data and Lamina-associated domain (LAD) organization, revealed the presence of inter-family epimutation hotspots near differentially expressed genes, most of which were located near redistributed LADs. Comparison of DMRs found in fibroblasts and iPSCs identified regions where epimutations were persistent across both cell types. Finally, a network of disease-associated genes dysregulated in LMNA mutated cells was uncovered, potentially due to aberrant methylation changes. In conclusion, the use of in vitro culture models of patient-derived cells and differential methylation analysis enabled the identification of epimutation hotspots and dysregulated genes, consistent with a Lamin A/C mutation-specific epigenetic disease mechanism that arose in somatic and early-developmental cell stages.
