Transcriptomic profileing of iPSC-derived engineered cardiac tissue in which cMyBP-C have been ablated in the heterozygous and homozygous states on an isogenic background

ABSTRACT: Truncation mutations in cardiac myosin binding protein C (cMyBP-C), are common causes of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Heterozygous carriers present with classical HCM, while homozygous carriers present with early onset HCM that rapidly progress to heart failure. We used CRISPR-Cas9 to introduce heterozygous (cMyBP-C+/-) and homozygous (cMyBP-C-/-) frame-shift mutations into MYBPC3 in human iPSCs. Cardiomyocytes derived from these isogenic lines were used to generate engineered cardiac tissue constructs (ECTs). RNAseq analysis on 14 day old ECTs revealed enrichment of differentially expressed hypertrophic, sarcomeric, Ca2+-handling and metabolic genes in cMyBP-C+/- and cMyBP-C-/- ECTs.

Project description:Rationale Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common cardiac genetic disorder caused by sarcomeric gene variants and is associated with left ventricular hypertrophy and diastolic dysfunction. The role of the microtubule network has recently gained interest with findings that microtubule detyrosination (dTyr-MTs) is markedly elevated in heart failure. Acute reduction of dTyr-MTs by inhibition of the detyrosinase (VASH/SVBP complex) or activation of the tyrosinase (tubulin tyrosine ligase, TTL) markedly improved contractility and reduced stiffness in human failing cardiomyocytes, presenting a new perspective for HCM treatment. Objective In this study, we tested the impact of chronic tubulin tyrosination in a HCM mouse model (Mybpc3-knock-in; KI), in human HCM cardiomyocytes, and in SVBP-deficient human engineered heart tissues (EHTs). Methods and Results AAV9-mediated TTL transfer was applied in neonatal wild-type (WT) rodents, in 3-week-old KI mice, and in HCM human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes. We show: i) TTL for 6 weeks dose-dependently reduced dTyr-MTs and improved contractility without affecting cytosolic calcium transients in WT cardiomyocytes. ii) TTL for 12 weeks reduced the abundance of dTyr-MTs in the myocardium, improved diastolic filling, compliance, cardiac output, and stroke volume in KI mice. iii) TTL for 10 days normalized cell area in HCM hiPSC-cardiomyocytes. iv) TTL overexpression activates transcription of several tubulin isoforms, and omics GO analysis revealed enrichment of components of the cytoskeleton, sarcomere Z-disc, mitochondria, and intercalated disc in KI mice. v) SVBP-deficient EHTs exhibited reduced dTyr-MT levels, higher force, and faster relaxation than TTL-deficient and WT EHTs. RNA-seq and mass spectrometry analysis revealed distinct enrichment of cardiomyocyte components and pathways in SVBP-KO vs. TTL-KO EHTs. Conclusion This study provides the first proof-of-concept that chronic activation of tubulin tyrosination in HCM mice and in human EHTs improves heart function and holds promise for targeting the non-sarcomeric cytoskeleton in heart disease.
