Project description:Agonist-induced cardiac hypertrophy in TG1306/1R transgenic mice with cardiac angiotensin II overproduction leads to a gradual transition from a compensatory hypertrophic state to heart failure. To gain insight into the molecular mechanisms that play a role in maintaining cardiac integrity in the diseased heart, we performed a comparative study of gene expression between wild-type (WT) and transgenic (TG) hearts using microarray analysis. TG1306/1R transgenics were separated into two phenotypic groups (hypertrophic and dilated) based on morphological parameters (cardiac weight index and histology) and either a moderate (hypertrophic) or a high (dilated) upregulation of molecular markers for hypertrophy and failure, and compared to age and sex-matched wild-types. In this series, twelve 60 week old male TG1306/1R mice were separated into 3 groups: WT1-4= Four Wild-types TG1306/1R littermates genetically negative for the transgene (-/-) Hyp1-4= Four TG1306/1R mice heterozygote for the transgene (-/+) and developing a concentric hypertrophic phenotype* Dil1-4 = Four TG1306/1R mice heterozygote for the transgene (-/+) and developing a dilated cardiac phenotype* This series contains 4 biological replicates for the following triangulation: WT is compared to Hyp, WT is compared to Dil, and Hyp is compared to Dil. * For further information read: Domenighetti AA, Wang Q, Egger M, Richards SM, Pedrazzini T, Delbridge LM.

Project description:Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is a major risk factor for the development of heart failure and sudden cardiac death, yet the molecular mechanism of cardiac hypertrophy is not fully understood. Recently, we found that the expression of Lin28a, a RNA-binding protein, was significantly upregulated during the early stages of cardiac hypertrophy. Interestingly, cardiac specific conditional deletion of Lin28a blunted pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophic responses. Given that Lin28a can bind to diverse mRNA to regulate their abundance and/or translation, we conducted RNA-seq to profile the cardiac transcriptome alteration without Lin28a under pressure overload. It showed that metabolic pathways, including glycolysis and biosynthetic pathway, were remarkedly affected. Thus, our study identifies Lin28a as a crucial regulator of cardiac hypertrophy via its role in metabolic programming.

Project description:Failure of molecular chaperones to direct the correct folding of newly synthesized proteins leads to the accumulation of misfolded proteins in cells. HSPA4 is a member of the heat shock protein 110 family (HSP110) that acts as a nucleotide exchange factor of HSP70 chaperones. We found that the expression of HSPA4 is upregulated in murine hearts subjected to pressure overload and in failing human hearts. To investigate the cardiac function of HSPA4, Hspa4 knockout (KO) mice were generated and exhibited cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis. Hspa4 KO hearts were characterized by a significant increase in heart weight/body weight ratio, elevated expression of hypertrophic and fibrotic gene markers, and concentric hypertrophy with preserved contractile functions. Cardiac hypertrophy in Hspa4 KO hearts was associated with enhanced activation of gp130-STAT3, CaMKII, and calcineurin-NFAT signaling. Further analyses revealed a significant increase in cross sectional area of cardiomyocytes, and in expression levels of hypertrophic markers in cultured neonatal Hspa4 KO cardiomyocytes suggesting that the hypertrophy of mutant mice was a result of primary defects in cardiomyocytes. Gene expression profile in hearts of 3.5-week-old mice revealed a differentially expressed gene sets related to ion channels and stress response. Taken together, these results reveal that HSPA4 is implicated in protection against pressure overload-induced heart failure. Total RNA was extracted from heart ventricles of 3.5-week-old Hspa4+/+ and Hspa4-/- males (n = 3 mice for each genotype).

Project description:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the most frequent inherited heart condition and a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular mortality worldwide. Although hypertrophy is traditionally regarded as an adaptive response to increased workload caused by physiological or pathological stress, prolonged hypertrophy can lead to heart failure characterized by impaired systolic function, increased apoptosis, fibrosis, ventricular dilation, and impaired metabolic substrate flexibility. While the key regulators for cardiac hypertrophy are well studied, the role of Prdm16 in this process remains poorly understood. In the present study, we demonstrate that Prdm16 is dispensable for cardiac development. However, it is required in the adult heart to preserve mitochondrial function and inhibit hypertrophy with advanced age. Cardiac-specific deletion of Prdm16 results in cardiac hypertrophy, excessive ventricular fibrosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, and impaired metabolic flexibility, leading to heart failure. We demonstrate that Prdm16 and euchromatic histone-lysine N- methyltransferase factors (Ehmts) act together to reduce the expression of fetal genes reactivated in pathological hypertrophy by inhibiting the functions of pro- hypertrophic transcription factor Myc. Although young Prdm16 knockout mice show normal cardiac function, they are predisposed to develop heart failure in response to metabolic stress. Collectively, our results demonstrate that Prdm16 protects the heart against age-dependent cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, adverse metabolic remodeling, and heart failure.

Project description:In humans, cardiac hypertrophy is the principal risk factor for the development of overt heart failure and sudden cardiac death from lethal arrhythmias. Although aberrant reactivation of fetal² gene programs is intricately linked to maladaptive hypertrophy of postnatal cardiomyocytes, loss of cardiac function and heart failure, the transcription factors driving these gene programs remain ill defined. We report that the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor dHAND/Hand2 is re-expressed in the mammalian postnatal myocardium in response to stress signaling. Interestingly, mutant mice overexpressing Hand2 in otherwise healthy ventricular myocytes developed a phenotype of pathological hypertrophy. In contrast, conditional gene-targeted Hand2 mice demonstrated a marked resistance to pressure overload-induced hypertrophy, fibrosis, ventricular dysfunction and induction of a fetal gene program. These data suggest a critical role for the Hand2 transcription factor during hypertrophic remodeling and heart failure. To gain more mechanistically insight in the processes underlying heart failure, we here identified Hand2 target genes by microarray gene expression profiling. RNA samples were collected 4 weeks after sham or TAC surgery (to induce pressure overload) of both tamoxifen-treated Hand2f/f (WT) and MCM-Hand2f/f (KO) mice.

Project description:In this study, we aimed to demonstrate expression profiles of circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) in dogs with eccentric or concentric cardiac hypertrophy, and investigate whether there is a difference in miRNA expression according to the type of cardiac hypertrophy. Dogs with myxomatous mitral valve degeneration (MMVD) or pulmonic stenosis (PS) were included in this study, which are the two representative diseases of eccentric or concentric cardiac hypertrophy in dogs, respectively. Circulating miRNAs were isolated from the serum samples of five dogs with MMVD, five dogs with PS, and five healthy dogs. The circulating miRNA expression levels of dogs with MMVD or PS were compared with those of the healthy dogs by microarray analysis (Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA 4.0), using two independent parameters, a fold change cut-off of > 1.5 (up or down regulation) and p-value of < 0.05.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators in the process of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. Previous studies showed that miR-199a is upregulated in pressure-overload cardiac hypertrophy and overexpression of miR-199a induces cardiac hypertrophy in vivo. However, the therapeutic role of anti-miR-199a treatment in cardiac hypertrophy is of little known. Here, we showed a novel and effective way to treat mice cardiac hypertrophy and restored cardiac function through injection of adeno-associated virus (AAV) which expressed anti-miR-199a tough decoys (TuDs). We performed the RNA-seq profiling in both AAV9-EGFP control and AAV9-anti-miR-199a TuDs injected cardiac hypertrophic mice. The transcriptome analysis indicates that genes related to cytoplasmic translation, mitochondrial respiratory chain complex assembly were upregulated by anti-miR-199a treated recovered hearts.

Project description:Histidine triad nucleotide-binding protein 2 (HINT2) is an enzyme found in mitochondria that functions as nucleotide hydrolase and transferase. Prior studies have demonstrated that HINT2 plays a crucial role in ischemic heart disease but the significance of HINT2 in cardiac hypertrophy remains unknown. Therefore, the current study aims to determine the role of HINT2 in cardiac remodeling. HINT2 expression was found to be lower in failing hearts and hypertrophic cardiomyocytes. The mice that overexpressed HINT2 exhibited reduced myocytes hypertrophy and cardiac dysfunction in response to stress. Conversely, the deficiency of HINT2 in the heart of mice resulted in a worsened hypertrophic phenotype. Further analysis indicated that the upregulated genes were primarily associated with the oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial complex I pathway in the HINT2-overexpressed mice after aortic banding (AB) treatment. This suggests that HINT2 upregulated the expression of NDUFs genes. In cellular studies, the protective effect of overexpressing HINT2 was nullified. Lastly, we predicted that THRB might regulate HINT2 transcriptional activity. To conclusion, the current study showcased that HINT2 alleviates pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy by depending on the activity and assembly of mitochondrial complex I. Thus, targeting HINT2 could be a novel therapeutic intervention for reducing cardiac remodeling.

Project description:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) constitutes the most common genetic cardiac disorder. However, current pharmacotherapeutics are mainly symptomatic and only partially address underlying molecular mechanisms. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a recently discovered class of non-coding RNAs and emerged as specific and powerful regulators of cellular functions. By performing global circRNA-specific next generation sequencing in cardiac tissue of patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy compared to healthy donors, we identified circZFPM2 (hsa_circ_0003380. CircZFPM2, which derives from the ZFPM2 locus, is a highly conserved regulatory circRNA that is strongly induced in HCM tissue. In vitro loss-of-function experiments were performed in neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs), and HCM-patient-derived hiPSC-CMs. A knockdown of circZFPM2 was found to induce cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and compromise mitochondrial respiration, leading to an increased production of reactive oxygen species and apoptosis. In contrast, delivery of recombinant circZFPM2, packaged in lipid-nanoparticles or using AAV-based overexpression, rescued cardiomyocyte hypertrophic gene expression and promoted cell survival. Additionally, HCM-derived cardiac organoids exhibited improved contractility upon CM-specific overexpression of circZFPM2. Multi-Omics analysis further promoted our hypothesis, showing beneficial effects of circZFPM2 on cardiac contractility and mitochondrial function. Collectively, our data highlight that circZFPM2 serves as a promising target for the treatment of cardiac hypertrophy including HCM.
