The role of MEF2A in iPSC-CMs maturation

ABSTRACT: To understand the role of MEF2A in iPSC-CMs maturation, we used MEF2A-siRNA to reduce MEF2A transcription in iPSC-CMs and then examined the changes in transcription levels

Project description:Many oncology drugs have been found to induce cardiotoxicity in a subset of patients, which significantly limits their clinical use and impedes the benefit of lifesaving anti-cancer treatments. Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) carry donor-specific genetic information and have been proposed for explore the inter-individual difference in oncology drug-induced cardiotoxicity. Herein, we evaluated the inter- and intra- individual variability of iPSC-CM-related assays and presented a practical approach for using donor-specific iPSC-CMs to predict personalized doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) prior to chemotherapy. Our findings demonstrated that donor-specific iPSC-CMs exhibited greater line-to-line variability than the intra-individual variability in impedance cytotoxicity and transcriptome assays. The variable and dose-dependent cytotoxic responses of iPSC-CMs resembled those observed in clinical practice, and largely replicated the reported mechanisms of DIC. By categorizing iPSC-CMs into DOX-resistant and DOX-sensitive cell lines based on their phenotypic reactions to DOX, we found that the sensitivity of donor-specific iPSC-CMs to DOX may predict in vivo DIC risk. Furthermore, we assessed the limitations of the model for identification of potential genetic/molecular biomarker and pinpointed a differentially expressed gene, DND microRNA-mediated repression inhibitor 1 (DND1), between the DOX-resistant and DOX-sensitive iPSC-CMs. We also discussed the selection of DOX dose and exposure duration for inter-individual variability of DIC assessment. Our results support the utility of donor-specific iPSC-CMs in assessing inter-individual difference and enabling personalized cardiotoxicity prediction. Further studies will encompass a large panel of donor-specific iPSC-CMs to investigate the role of the DND1 and known DIC genetic variants, and to identify potential novel molecular and genetic biomarkers for predicting DOX and other oncology drug-induced cardiotoxicity.
