Single cell RNA sequencing of valvular interstitial cells and adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells

ABSTRACT: A disease driver population within interstitial cells of human calcific aortic valves identified via single-cell and proteomic profiling Cellular heterogeneity of aortic valves complicates mechanistic evaluation of the calcification processes in calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD), and animal disease models are lacking. In this study, we identify a disease driver population (DDP) within valvular interstitial cells (VICs). Through stepwise single-cell analysis, phenotype-guided -OMIC profiling, and network-based analysis, we characterize DDP fingerprint as CD44highCD29+CD59+CD73+CD45low and discover potential key regulators of human CAVD. These DDP-VICs demonstrate multi-lineage differentiation and osteogenic properties. Temporal proteomic profiling of DDP-VICs identifies potential targets for therapy, including MAOA and CTHRC1. In vitro loss-of-function experiments confirm our targets. Such a stepwise strategy may be advantageous for therapeutic target discovery in other disease contexts.

Gene expression from healthy male and female porcine aortic valve leaflets

Project description:Calcific aortic valvular disease (CAVD) is characterized by sclerosis of the aortic valve leaflets and recent clinical studies have linked several other risk factors to this disease, including male sex. In this study we examined potential sex-related differences in gene expression profiles between porcine male and female valvular interstitial cells (VICs) to explore possible differences in CAVD propensity on the cellular level. RNA samples from three male and three female healthy porcine aortic valve leaflets (denuded of endothelial cells) were isolated, processed, and hybridized to AffymetrixM-BM-. GeneChip Porcine Genome microarrays according to manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions. Mean expression values of each probe set in the male samples were compared with those in the female samples.

Cellular landscapes of osteogenically differentiated valvular interstitial cells stimulated with XCT790-loaded nanoparticles

Project description:The pathogenesis of calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is unknown. XCT790 is a specific inhibitor of estrogen-associated receptor alpha (ERR-alpha) that inhibits valve calcification in mouse models. Here, we designed a nanocarrier targeting osteoblast-differentiated valve interstitial cells (VICs) for targeted delivery of XCT790 to the calcified area. We stimulated osteogenic differentiated VICs with this targeting nanoparticle, and performed RNA-seq to assess transcriptional alterations of VICs and explore specific mechanisms.

Stanniocalcin-1 mediates aortic valve calcification via promoting osteochondrogenic differentiation from valve interstitial cells

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.

Inhibitory Role of Notch1 in Calcific Aortic Valve Disease

Project description:Aortic valve calcification is the most common form of valvular heart disease, but the mechanisms of calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) are unknown. NOTCH1 mutations are associated with aortic valve malformations and adult-onset calcification in families with inherited disease. The Notch signaling pathway is critical for multiple cell differentiation processes, but its role in the development of CAVD is not well understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular changes that occur with inhibition of Notch signaling in the aortic valve. Notch signaling pathway members are expressed in adult aortic valve cusps, and examination of diseased human aortic valves revealed decreased expression of NOTCH1 in areas of calcium deposition. To identify downstream mediators of Notch1, we examined gene expression changes that occur with chemical inhibition of Notch signaling in rat aortic valve interstitial cells (AVICs). We found significant downregulation of Sox9 along with several cartilage-specific genes that were direct targets of the transcription factor, Sox9. Loss of expression Sox9 has been published to be associated with aortic valve calcification. Utilizing an in vitro porcine aortic valve calcification model system, inhibition of Notch activity resulted in accelerated calcification while stimulation of Notch signaling attenuated the calcific process. Finally, the addition of Sox9 was able to prevent the calcification of porcine AVICs that occurs with Notch inhibition. In conclusion, loss of Notch signaling contributes to aortic valve calcification via a Sox9-dependent mechanism. 3 samples of aortic valve interstitial cells treated with DAPT were compared with 3 samples of aortic valve interstitial cells treated with DMSO

Nitric oxide prevents aortic valve calcification by S-nitrosylation of USP9X to activate NOTCH signaling

Project description:Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is an increasingly prevalent condition and endothelial dysfunction is implicated in its etiology. We previously identified nitric oxide (NO) as a calcification inhibitor by its activation of NOTCH1, which is genetically linked to human CAVD. Here, we show that NO rescues calcification by a S-nitrosylation-mediated mechanism in porcine aortic valve interstitial cells (pAVICs) and single cell RNA-seq demonstrated regulation of NOTCH pathway by NO. A unbiased proteomic approach to identify S-nitrosylated proteins in valve cells found enrichment of the ubiquitin proteasome pathway and implicated S-nitrosylation of USP9X in NOTCH regulation during calcification. Furthermore, S-nitrosylated USP9X was shown to deubiquitinate and stabilize MIB1 for NOTCH1 activation. Consistent with this, genetic deletion of Usp9x in mice demonstrated aortic valve disease and human calcified aortic valves displayed reduced S-nitrosylation of USP9X. These results demonstrate a novel mechanism by which S-nitrosylation dependent regulation of ubiquitin-associated pathway prevents CAVD.

A novel long noncoding RNA SNHG3 promotes osteoblast differentiation through BMP2 upregulation in calcific aortic valve disease

Project description:The role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) remains largely elusive. This study aims to report a novel therapeutic lncRNA, SNHG3, and elucidate its role in CAVD. Based on high-throughput transcriptomic sequencing of human aortic valves, SNHG3 is among the most highly expressed lncRNAs in CAVD. Furthermore, SNHG3 upregulation is verified in human calcified aortic valves, osteoblastic human aortic valve interstitial cells (hVICs), and aortic valve tissues in CAVD mice. Moreover, knockdown of SNHG3 with antisense oligonucleotide markedly ameliorates aortic valve calcification in high cholesterol diet-treated ApoE-/- mice, as evidenced by reduced calcium deposition in the aortic valve leaflets, improved echocardiographic parameters, and decreased osteogenic differentiation markers (RUNX2, osteopontin, and osteocalcin) in aortic valves. Consistent with these in vivo findings, SNHG3 overexpression aggravates the calcification of hVICs, while knockdown of SNHG3 alleviates the process of differential calcification. Transcriptomics sequencing, gene set enrichment analyses, RNA-pull down, RNA immunoprecipitation and chromatin immunoprecipitation-qPCR show that SNHG3 physically interacts with polycomb repressive complex 2 to suppress the H3K27 tri-methylation BMP2 locus, which in turn activates BMP2 expression and signaling pathways. Taken together, SNHG3 promotes aortic valve calcification by upregulating BMP2, which might be a novel therapeutic target in human CAVD.

Proteomics comparison of human valve interstitial cells from healthy patients and donors with CAVD

Project description:Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is an slowly progressive calcification of heart valve which leads to aortic stenosis. The only existing treatment of CAVD is surgical replacment of calcified valve - development of anti-CAVD treatment is urgent task. For better understanding of molecular mechanisms of CAVD progression we performed proteomics analysis of osteogenic differentiation of human valve interstitial cells isolated from healthy humans or patients with CAVD.

Proteolytic degradation is the culprit behind a bioprosthetic heart valve failure

Project description:Whereas the risk factors for structural valve deterioration (SVD) of glutaraldehyde (GA)- treated bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are well-studied, those responsible for the failure of next-generation BHVs fixed with alternative chemicals remain largely unknown. Here, we collected 11 ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE)-treated BHVs excised because of SVD and 5 calcified aortic valves (AVs) replaced with BHVs due to the calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD), further deciphering their proteomic profile.

Sortilin Drives Valvular Interstitial Cells to a Combined Inflammatory Myofibroblast-Osteogenic Phenotype in Calcific Aortic Valve Disease as Revealed by Single-cell Analysis

Project description:Background: Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD), the most common valve disease is comprised of a chronic interplay of inflammation, fibrosis, and calcification. In this study, sortilin (SORT1) was identified as a novel key player in the pathophysiology of CAVD, and its role in the transformation of valvular interstitial cells (VICs) into pathological phenotypes is explored. Methods: An aortic valve (AV) wire injury (AVWI) mouse model with sortilin deficiency was used to determine the effects of sortilin on AV stenosis, fibrosis and calcification. In vitro experiments employed human primary VICs cultured in osteogenic conditions for 7, 14 and 21 days; and processed for imaging, proteomics, transcriptomics and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). Results: The AVWI mouse model showed reduced AV fibrosis, calcification, and stenosis in sortilin-deficient mice versus littermate controls. We identified the transition of human VICs into a myofibroblast-like phenotype mediated by sortilin and p-38 MAPK signaling. Sortilin loss-of-function decreased in vitro VIC calcification. ScRNA-seq identified 12 differentially expressed cell clusters in human VIC samples, where a novel combined inflammatory myofibroblastic-osteogenic VIC (IMO-VIC) phenotype was detected with increased expression of SORT1, COL1A1, WNT5A, IL-6 and SAA1. VICs sequenced with sortilin deficiency showed decreased IMO-VIC phenotype. Conclusions: Sortilin promotes experimental CAVD by mediating valvular fibrosis and calcification, and newly identified phenotype (IMO-VIC). This is the first study to examine the role of sortilin in aortic valve calcification and it may render it a therapeutic target to inhibit IMO-VIC emergence by simultaneously reducing inflammation, fibrosis, and calcification, the three key pathological processes underlying CAVD.
