Project description:In cardiomyocytes, Ca2+ influx through L-type voltage-gated calcium channels (LTCCs) following membrane depolarization regulates crucial Ca2+-dependent processes including duration and amplitude of the action potentials and excitation-contraction coupling. LTCCs are heteromultimeric proteins composed of the Cav1, Cav, Cav2 and Cav subunits. Here, using ascorbate peroxidase (APEX)-mediated proximity labeling and quantitative proteomics, we identified 61 proteins in the nano-environments of Cav2 in cardiomyocytes. These proteins are involved in diverse cellular functions such as cellular trafficking, muscular contraction, sarcomere organization and excitation-contraction coupling. Moreover, pull-down assays, co-immunoprecipitation analyses and super-resolution imaging using direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (dSTORM) revealed that Cav2 interacts with the ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) in adult cardiomyocytes, probably coupling LTCCs and the RyR2 into a supramolecular complex at the dyads. This interaction is mediated by the Src-homology 3 domain of Cav2 and is necessary for an effective pacing frequency‐dependent increase of the Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release mechanism in cardiomyocytes.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Cardiac hypertrophy compensates for increased biomechanical stress of the heart induced by prevalent cardiovascular pathologies, but can result in cardiac failure if left untreated. We hypothesized that the tail-anchored protein Dysferlin with multiple Ca2+-binding C2-domains is critical for the integrity of the transverse-axial tubule (TAT) network inside cardiomyocytes, and contributes to the proliferation of TAT endomembranes during pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy. OBJECTIVE: To reveal the impact of the membrane fusion and repair protein Dysferlin on TAT network stabilization and proliferation necessary for the hypertrophic growth of cardiomyocytes. METHODS AND RESULTS: Super-resolution light and electron microscopy of mouse cardiomyocytes identified a specific localization of Dysferlin in a vesicular compartment in nanometric proximity to contact sites of the TAT network with the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), a.k.a. junctional complexes for Ca2+-induced Ca2+ release. Mass spectrometry was used to characterize the cardiac Dysferlin interactome, thereby identifying a novel protein interaction with the membrane-tethering SR protein Juncophilin-2, a known interactor of L-type Ca2+ channels and Ryanodine Receptor Ca2+ release channels in junctional complexes. While the Dysferlin knockout caused a mild progressive phenotype of dilated cardiomyopathy in the mouse heart, global proteome analysis revealed changes preceding systolic failure. Following transverse aortic constriction (TAC), Dysferlin protein expression was significantly increased in hypertrophied wild-type myocardium, while Dysferlin knockout animals presented markedly reduced left-ventricular hypertrophy. Live-cell membrane imaging demonstrated a profound reorganization of the TAT network in wild-type left-ventricular myocytes post-TAC with robust proliferation of axial tubules, which critically depended on the increased expression of Dysferlin within newly-emerging tubule components. CONCLUSIONS: Dysferlin represents a new molecular target in cardiac disease that protects the integrity of tubule-SR junctional complexes for regulated excitation-contraction coupling, and controls TAT network reorganization and tubular membrane proliferation in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by pressure-overload.

Abstract:
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is a heritable arrhythmia
unmasked by exertion or stress and is characterized by triggered activity and
sudden cardiac death. In this study, we simulated mutations in 2 genes linked to
catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, the first located in
calsequestrin (CSQN2) and the second in the ryanodine receptor (RyR2). The aim
of the study was to investigate the mechanistic basis for spontaneous Ca2+
release events that lead to delayed afterdepolarizations in affected patients.
Sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) luminal Ca2+ sensing was incorporated into a model
of the human ventricular myocyte, and CSQN2 mutations were modeled by simulating
disrupted RyR2 luminal Ca2+ sensing. In voltage-clamp mode, the mutant CSQN2
model recapitulated the smaller calcium transients, smaller time to peak calcium
transient, and accelerated recovery from inactivation seen in experiments. In
current clamp mode, in the presence of beta stimulation, we observed delayed
afterdepolarizations, suggesting that accelerated recovery of RyR2 induced by
impaired luminal Ca2+ sensing underlies the triggered activity observed in
mutant CSQN2-expressing myocytes. In current-clamp mode, in a model of mutant
RyR2 that is characterized by reduced FKBP12.6 binding to the RyR2 on beta
stimulation, the impaired coupled gating characteristic of these mutations was
modeled by reducing cooperativity of RyR2 activation. In current-clamp mode, the
mutant RyR2 model exhibited increased diastolic RyR2 open probability that
resulted in formation of delayed afterdepolarizations. In conclusion, these
minimal order models of mutant CSQN2 and RyR2 provide plausible mechanisms by
which defects in RyR2 gating may lead to the cellular triggers for arrhythmia,
with implications for the development of targeted therapy.

Project description:Background: Cardiac Ryanodine receptors (RyR2) can regulate Ca2+ release in the excitation-contraction coupling, when activated, it releases a large amount of Ca2+ into the cytoplasm. Additionally, studies have shown that dantrolene (a RyR2 inhibitor) protects against heart failure and arrhythmias by inhibiting domain decompression, Ca2+ leakage and diastolic Ca2+ sparking. However, the role and mechanism of dantrolene in cardiac hypertrophy remain unclear. Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of dantrolene on pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy in mice models by transverse aortic contraction (TAC) surgery and to explore its potential mechanism. Methods: C57/B6 mice (age: 8 weeks) underwent TAC or sham surgical procedure and were administered oral dantrolene (30 mg/kg) or the solvent drug postoperatively. After 4 weeks of drug treatment, RNA sequencing of mice left ventricle was performed.qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays. Results: We found that dantrolene significantly alleviated TAC-induced cardiac hypertrophy. According to RNA sequencing, 184 down-regulated genes were found after dantrolene treatment compared with TAC group, 8 of these were validated with qRT–PCR. According to the KEGG analysis, Creb3l3, IL18R1 and Ccl5 were down-regulated after dantrolene treatment, which were related to TNF-α pathway. Conclusion: As a RyR2 inhibitor, dantrolene attenuates cardiac hypetrophy through downregulating the TNF-α/NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway.

Project description:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is characterized by life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac death and affects hundreds of thousands of patients worldwide. The deletion of Arginine 14 (p.R14del) in the phospholamban (PLN) gene has been implicated in the pathogenesis of ACM. PLN is a key regulator of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ cycling and cardiac contractility. Despite global gene and protein expression studies, the molecular mechanisms of PLN-R14del ACM pathogenesis remain unclear. Using a humanized PLN-R14del mouse model and human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs), we investigated the transcriptome-wide mRNA splicing changes associated with the R14del mutation. We identified >200 significant alternative splicing (AS) events and distinct AS profiles were observed in the right (RV) and left (LV) ventricles in PLN- R14del compared to WT mouse hearts. Enrichment analysis of the AS events showed that the most affected biological process was associated with “cardiac cell action potential”, specifically in the RV. We found that splicing of 2 key genes, Trpm4andCamk2d, which encode proteins regulating calcium homeostasis in the heart, were altered in PLN-R14del mouse hearts and human iPSC-CMs. Bioinformatical analysis pointed to the tissue-specific splicing factors Srrm4 and Nova1 as likely upstream regulators of the observed splicing changes in the PLN-R14del cardiomyocytes. Our findings suggest that aberrant splicing may affect Ca2+- homeostasis in the heart, contributing to the increased risk of arrythmogenesis in PLN- R14del ACM.

Project description:Zebrafish ncx1h (also known as slc8a1a) encodes a cardiac specific sodium-calcium exchanger 1 (NCX1h), a primary Ca 2+ efflux effector in cardiomyocytes. The zebrafish tremblor (tre) mutant lacks functional NCX1h and, consequentially, cyclic Ca2+ transients are abolished. In this study, we investigated the effect of aberrant Ca2+ homeostasis in cardiomyocytes on gene expression. Wild type and ncx1 mutant hearts at 48 hours post fertilization were isolated for RNA preparation and gene expression analysis was performed using an Affymetrix Zebrafish GeneChip.

Project description:Purpose: Cardiac hypertrophy is a well-known major risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Dysregulation of intracellular Ca2+ is involved in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy. However, the precise mechanism underlying cardiac hypertrophy remains elusive. Here, we investigated whether pressure-overload induced hypertrophy can be induced by destabilization of cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) through calmodulin (CaM) dissociation and subsequent Ca2+ leakage, and whether it can be genetically rescued by enhancing the binding affinity of CaM to RyR2. Methods: To examine the role of CaM-RyR2 complex in the development of pressure-overload induced cardiac hypertrophy, whole transcriptome analysis using RNA-seq analysis in the hearts from WT and homozygous RyR2V3599K/V3599K (V3599K) mice with or without transverse aortic constriction (TAC) was performed to elucidate the RyR2 signaling pathway in the heart. Results: Gene expression increased in WT (+TAC) hearts compared to WT (-TAC) hearts; however, this increase was not observed in V3599K (+TAC) hearts. Conclusions: Enhanced CaM binding to RyR2 decreased expression of hypertrophy-related genes.

Project description:Creation of disease models utilizing hiPSCs in combination with CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing enable mechanistic insights into differential pharmacological responses. This allows translation of efficacy and safety findings from a healthy to a diseased state and provides a means to predict clinical outcome sooner during drug discovery. Calcium handling disturbances including reduced expression levels of the type 2 ryanodine receptor (RYR2) are linked to cardiac dysfunction; here we have created a RYR2 deficient human cardiomyocyte model that mimics some aspects of heart failure. RYR2 deficient cardiomyocytes show differential pharmacological responses to L-type channel calcium inhibitors. Phenotypic and proteomic characterization reveal novel molecular insights with altered expression of structural proteins including CSRP3, SLMAP, and metabolic changes including upregulation of the pentose phosphate pathway and increased sensitivity to redox alterations. This genetically engineered in vitro cardiovascular model of RYR2 deficiency supports the study of pharmacological responses in the context of calcium handling and metabolic dysfunction enabling translation of drug responses from healthy to perturbed cellular states.
