Transcriptomic profile analysis of the left atrium in spontaneously hypertensive rats at the early stage
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Before morphological changes at the early stage of hypertension, how overloaded hypertension influences the transcriptomic profile of the left atrium remains unclear, therefore, RNA-sequencing was performed to define the RNA expressing profiles of left atrium in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) as a control group. At the same time, we compared the RNA expressing profiles changes in ARB-treated (valsartan, 30mg/kg/d) and ARNI-treated (sacubitril/valsartan, 60mg/kg/d) SHR to reveal the distinct effects on the left atrium. A total of 1558 differentially expressed genes were found in the left atrium between WKY rats and SHRs. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that these mRNAs could regulate the upstream pathways in atrial remodeling through atrial fibrosis, inflammation, electrical remodeling, and cardiac metabolism. The regulated transcripts of left atrial tissue in both the ARB-treated and ARNI-treated groups were related to metabolism. Compared with ARB, transcripts in ARNI-treated rats were mapped to the cGMP-PKG signaling pathway.
