Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in pigs causes shifts in post transcriptional regulation of matrix associated pathways

ABSTRACT: Background: Left ventricular pressure overload (LVPO) can lead to heart failure with a preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), whereby increased LV chamber stiffness (LV Kc) is a hallmark. However, how post-transcriptional pathways, specifically microRNAs (miRs) may contribute to increased LV Kc and HFpEF progression remains unclear. This project tested the central hypothesis that the development of HFpEF secondary to a prolonged LVPO stimulus, will result in a shift in miRs that will be related to LV Kc. Methods: LVPO was induced in pigs (n=9) by sequential occlusion of an ascending aortic cuff and studies performed at 5 weeks of LVPO. Age and weight matched pigs (n=6) served as referent controls. LV function and left atrial area (LA) were measured by echocardiography and LV Kc by speckle tracking. LV myocardial miRs were quantified using an 84 miR array (rt-PCR). Results: LA area, LV mass, and Kc- increased with LVPO consistent with the HFpEF phenotype. A total of 36 (43%) miRs shifted of which 18 miRs correlated to LV Kc. An additional 29 miRs correlated to LA dilation. These miRs mapped to functional domains relevant to Kc such as fibrosis and calcium handling. Conclusion: These unique findings identified a specific set of miRs that change with the development of HFpEF and related to LV stiffness properties and thus may hold relevance in terms of prognosis and therapeutic targets.

Transcriptomics of cardiac biopsies reveals differences in patients with or without diagnostic parameters for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

Project description:Heart failure affects 2–3% of adult Western population. Prevalence of heart failure with preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (HFpEF) increases. Studies suggest HFpEF patients to have altered myocardial structure and functional changes such as incomplete relaxation and increased cardiac stiffness. We hypothesised that patients undergoing elective coronary bypass surgery (CABG) with HFpEF characteristics will show distinctive gene expression compared to patients with normal LV physiology. Myocardial biopsies for mRNA expression analysis were obtained from sixteen patients with LV ejection fraction ≥ 45%. Five out of 16 patients (31%) had echocardiographic characteristics and increased NTproBNP levels indicative of HFpEF and this group was used as HFpEF proxy, while 11 patients had Normal LV physiology. Utilising principal component analysis, the gene expression data clustered into two groups, corresponding to HFpEF proxy and Normal physiology, and 743 differentially expressed genes were identified. The associated top biological functions were cardiac muscle contraction, oxidative phosphorylation, cellular remodelling and matrix organisation. Our results also indicate that upstream regulatory events, including inhibition of transcription factors STAT4, SRF and TP53, and activation of transcription repressors HEY2 and KDM5A, could provide explanatory mechanisms to observed gene expression differences and ultimately cardiac dysfunction in the HFpEF proxy group. <br> Sequencing data from clinical patients fall under GDPR regulations of sharing of personal data and will be made available through EGA-SE.

Transcriptomic profiling of chronic infarcted pig hearts

Project description:Myocardial infarction (MI) is the leading cause for hear failure (HF). Following MI, the non-infarcted region of left ventricle (LV) is critical for maintaining heart function, and disruption of the LV contributes greatly to post-MI HF. Transcriptomic profiling by high-throughput sequencing was performed in a chronic HF pig model, to explore the molecular changes in the post-MI LV related to cardiovascular deterioration. Samples were taken from heart tissue of MI-induced pigs and from control pigs not subjected to MI. Regions of the heart where samples were taken included the site of ischemia (LV ischemia), area bordering ischemia (LV border), area remote to ischemia (LV remote) and the right ventricle (RV).

Cardiac biopsies reveal differences in transcriptomics between left and right ventricle in patients with or without diagnostic signs of heart failure

Project description:Heart failure (HF) impacts 2-3% of adults in the West, with prevalence rising with age. This condition, leading to high mortality and morbidity, increasingly involves HF with preserved left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (HFpEF) in the aging population, having a similar stable prognosis as HF with reduced LVEF (HFrEF). However, HFpEF lacks many evidence-based therapies, partly due to its distinct pathophysiology compared to HFrEF. Molecularly, heart failure shows distinct gene expression changes, indicative of varying diseases. Prior research, including our early report from the CABG-PREFERS study, shows gene expression differences in HFpEF and normal hearts, although studies are limited. Both HFpEF and HFrEF patients exhibit altered LV myocardial structure and function, often affecting the right ventricle (RV) secondarily. In the CABG-PREFERS sub-study, part of the PREFERS programme, we classified patients by LVEF, structural abnormalities, diastolic dysfunction, and NT-proBNP levels into HFpEF physiology, HFrEF physiology, and normal LV function groups. Our hypothesis suggests gene expression and transcriptomic variations between LV and RV, and between HFpEF, HFrEF, and normal LV function, providing insights into different HF phenotypes and guiding future therapies.

A preclinical rat model of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction with multiple comorbidities

Project description:As patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) present with multiple comorbidities, we hypothesized, that metabolic syndrome in aging animals could lead to the development of diastolic dysfunction and HFpEF. HFpEF is a common complex morbid syndrome for which there are currently little evidence-based therapies. Obesity-prone rats were exposed to high-fat diet and compared to obesity-resistant rats fed with standard chow. Phenotyping of metabolic syndrome, associated with echocardiographic and cardiac hemodynamic measurements, was performed after 4 and 12 months. Blood and myocardial tissue sampling were performed for pathobiological evaluation. High-fat diet in obesity-prone rats elicited metabolic syndrome, characterized by increased body and abdominal fat weights, glucose intolerance and hyperlipidemia, as well as increased left ventricular (LV) systolic pressure (after 12 months). This was associated with LV diastolic dysfunction (assessed by increased LV end-diastolic pressure) and pulmonary hypertension (assessed by increased right ventricular systolic pressure). Echocardiography revealed significant concentric LV hypertrophy, while LV ejection fraction was preserved. LV remodeling was associated with cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, as well as myocardial and perivascular fibrosis. Circulating levels of soluble ST2 markedly increased in rats with HFpEF, while plasma NT-proBNP levels decreased. RNA-sequencing analysis identified clusters of genes implicated in fatty acid metabolism and calcium-dependent contraction as upregulated pathways in the myocardium of rats with HFpEF. High-fat diet during 12 months in obesity-prone rats led to the development of a relevant preclinical model of HFpEF with multiple comorbidities, suitable for investigating novel therapeutic interventions.

Proteomic and phosphoproteomic profiling in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)

Project description:Although the prevalence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is increasing, evidence-based therapies for HFpEF are rare, likely due to an incomplete understanding of this disease. This study sought to identify the cardiac-specific features of protein and phosphoprotein in a murine model of HFpEF using mass spectrometry. HFpEF mice developed moderate hypertension, left ventricle (LV) hypertrophy, lung congestion and diastolic dysfunction. Proteomics analysis of the LV tissue showed that 897 proteins were differentially expressed between HFpEF and Sham mice. We observed abundant changes in sarcomeric proteins, mitochondrial-related proteins, and NAD-dependent protein deacetylase sirtuin-3 (SIRT3). Upregulated pathways by GSEA analysis were related to immune modulation and muscle contraction, while downregulated pathways were predominantly related mitochondrial metabolism. Western blot analysis validated SIRT3 downregulated cardiac expression in HFpEF. Phosphoproteomics analysis showed that 72 phosphopeptides were differentially regulated between HFpEF and sham LV. Aberrant phosphorylation patterns mostly occurred in sarcomere proteins and nuclear-localized proteins associated with contractile dysfunction and cardiac hypertrophy. Seven aberrant phospho-sites were observed at the z disk binding region of titin. While total titin cardiac expression remained unaltered, its stiffer N2B isoform was significantly increased in HFpEF. Thus, these results show profound changes in proteins related to mitochondrial metabolism and function and the cardiac contractile apparatus in HFpEF. We propose that SIRT3 plays a key role and may be a target for drug development in HFpEF.

Valvular heart disease and atrial fibrillation regulate microRNA expression profiles in left and right atria differently

Project description:Background: Chronic atrial fibrillation (AF) is a complication associated with the dilated atria of patients with valvular heart disease and contributes to worsened pathology. Methods and Results: Using microarray technology, we examined microRNA (miR) expression profiles in right and left atrial appendage tissue from valvular heart disease (VHD) patients. Right atrial appendage from patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and left atrial (LA) appendage from healthy hearts not used for transplant were used as controls. VHD induced different changes in miR expression in LA compared with right atria (RA). Fifty-two (52) miRs were altered by VHD in LA, compared with 5 in RA tissue. There was no detectable effect of chronic AF on miR expression in LA tissue, but miR expression in RA was strongly influenced by AF, with 47 miRs showing differential expression. LA volume correlated with miR expression changes in both LA and RA, but the affected miRs were different for the two atrial groups. Conclusions: VHD and AF influence miR expression patterns in LA and RA, but these are affected differently by disease progression and by the development of AF. These findings provide new insights into the progression of VHD. RA tissue is not a useful surrogate for LA in studies of mitral valve disease.

Prophylactic or therapeutic NAD+ repletion can prevent or rescue HFpEF, but dietary intervention and weight loss cannot

Project description:Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction is a hallmark of Heart Failure with preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF), an escalating global health challenge. We demonstrated selective depletion of the oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and the rate-limiting enzyme of the NAD+ biosynthetic salvage pathway, nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), in human myocardium with LV diastolic dysfunction. We showed that NAD+ can be replenished in human myocardium with diastolic impairment ex vivo, despite reduced NAMPT expression. In a murine model of HFpEF [a combination exposure to high-fat diet (HFD) and L-NG-Nitro arginine methyl ester (L-NAME)], we compared the benefits of NAD+ precursor supplementation versus dietary intervention. We tested NAD+ repletion by nicotinamide riboside (NR) supplementation using two clinically-relevant strategies: 1) Prophylactic NR repletion before HFpEF onset, and 2) Therapeutic NR repletion after the development of HFpEF. We found that dietary intervention (replacement of HFD and L-NAME with healthy diet) restored myocardial insulin-dependent glucose uptake and glycolysis but did not rescue HFpEF. In contrast, both NAD+ repletion strategies prevented or rescued HFpEF, respectively, plausibly due to restoration of myocardial iron homeostasis, recoupling of glycolysis to the TCA cycle, and upregulation of antioxidant defense.

Expression data from uninephrectomized dogs compared to sham operated dogs

Project description:Renal insufficiency is a risk factor for development of cardiovascular disease. In this study our aim was to investigate functional and structural changes in the heart of dogs with mild renal insufficiency induced by uninephrectomy (UNX). In addition to comprehensively assessing functional parameters 12 week after UNX or sham surgery, we harvested tissue for assessment of structural changes. Microarray analyses were performed on snap frosen tissue from the left atrium (LA) and left ventricle (LV) of UNX and sham operated animals. Gene expression in LA was compared between the groups, and gene expression in the LV was compared between the groups. We aimed to assess whether a potentially altered gene expression in the heart of the UNX group also included genes associated with cardiac remodeling.
