Increased cardiac macrophages in Sorbs2-deficient hearts: revealing a potential role for macrophage in responding to embryonic myocardial abnormalities

ABSTRACT: Macrophages are known to support cardiac development and homeostasis, contributing to tissue remodeling and repair in the adult heart. However, it remains unclear whether embryonic macrophages also respond to abnormalities in the developing heart. Previously, we reported that the structural protein Sorbs2 promotes the development of the second heart field, with its deficiency resulting in atrial septal defects (ASD). In analyzing RNA-seq data, we noted an upregulation of macrophage-related genes in Sorbs2-/- hearts. Immunostaining and lineage-tracing confirmed an increase in macrophage numbers, underscoring a macrophage response to myocardial abnormalities. Partial depletion of macrophages led to downregulation of genes involved in lipid metabolism, muscle development and organ regeneration, alongside upregulation of genes associated with DNA damage-induced senescence and cardiomyopathy. Additionally, a non-significant increase in septal defects in macrophage-depleted Sorbs2-/- hearts suggests a potential reparative function for macrophages in maintaining structural integrity. Valve formation, however, remained unaffected. Our findings suggest that embryonic macrophages might sense abnormalities in embryonic cardiomyocytes and could adaptively support cardiac structure and function development in response to myocardial abnormalities.

RNA-Sequencing analysis of control and SORBS2 knockdown cardiac progenitor cells derived from human stem cells in vitro

Project description:Chromosome 4q deletion syndrome is one of the most frequently detected genomic imbalance events in congenital heart disease (CHD) patients. However, a portion of terminal 4q deletions with CHD do not include known CHD genes. Here in a target sequencing of a panel of known and candidate CHD genes, we showed that the detrimental rare variants of SORBS2 in 4q35.1 are significantly enriched in CHD patients. Examination of Sorbs2-/- mouse hearts revealed two types of atrial septal defects (ASD), atrial hypoplasia/aplasia and double atrial septum. In vitro human cardiogenesis indicated a dual role of SORBS2 in maintaining sarcomeric integrity of cardiomyocytes and specifying the fate of cardiac progenitors. Mechanistically, SORBS2 promotes the commitment of the second heart field (SHF) over the first heart field (FHF) fate through c-ABL/NOTCH/SHH axis. Taken together, our data demonstrate that SORBS2 is a novel CHD gene within deleted 4q interval. The presence of double atrial septum in Sorbs2-/- mouse reveals the first molecular etiology of the rare anomaly linked to paradoxical thromboembolism.

Gene expression profile of mouse CD206+F4/80+CD11b+ M2-like macrophages

Project description:Characterisation of M2-like macrophage in terms of gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that M2-like macrophages in myocardial infarction (MI) heart have upregulation of genes relevant to cardiac repair. The results obtained showed tha various tanti-inflammatory and reparative genes were upregulated in M2-like macrophage from MI heart compared to those from intact hearts. M2-like macrophages from the heart (either MI or intact) were distinct from those in the peritoneal cavity.

HIC2 regulates maturation of the cardiovascular system

Project description:HIC2 is required for normal development of the heart. Loss of function mutants exhibit early embryonic lethality while heterozygous mutants have a partially penetrant ventricular septal defect. The aim of this study was to understand the function of HIC2 in early heart development by identifying potential transcriptional targets. We harvested whole hearts (which contain circulating erythrocytes) at embryonic day E9.5 and compared expression in a conditional loss of function mutant (Mesp1 Cre/+; Hic2 Fl/Fl) to controls (Hic2 Fl/Fl).

Comparison of gene expression in cardiac macrophages from P1 or P14 mice 3 days following MI

Project description:Myocardial infarction (MI) leads to cardiomyocyte death, which triggers an immune response that clears debris and restores tissue integrity. In the adult heart, the immune system facilitates scar formation, which repairs the damaged myocardium but compromises cardiac function. In neonatal mice, the heart can regenerate fully without scarring following MI; however, this regenerative capacity is lost by P7. The signals that govern neonatal heart regeneration are unknown. By comparing the immune response to MI in mice at P1 and P14, we identified differences in the magnitude and kinetics of monocyte and macrophage responses to injury. Using a cell-depletion model, we determined that heart regeneration and neoangiogenesis following MI depends on neonatal macrophages. Neonates depleted of macrophages were unable to regenerate myocardia and formed fibrotic scars, resulting in reduced cardiac function and angiogenesis. Immunophenotyping and gene expression profiling of cardiac macrophages from regenerating and nonregenerating hearts indicated that regenerative macrophages have a unique polarization phenotype and secrete numerous soluble factors that may facilitate the formation of new myocardium. Our findings suggest that macrophages provide necessary signals to drive angiogenesis and regeneration of the neonatal mouse heart. Modulating inflammation may provide a key therapeutic strategy to support heart regeneration. Total RNA was isolated from CD11b+Ly6G- cells sorted from hearts 3 days following ligation of LAD. 6 samples total: Triplicates of cells from P1 mice and from P14 mice

Transcription factor EBF1 non-cell autonomously regulates cardiac growth and differentiation

Project description:Reciprocal interactions between non-myocytes and cardiomyocytes are implicated in the control of cardiac growth and differentiation. Here, we report the identification of early B-cell factor 1 (Ebf1) as a transcription factor highly enriched in non-myocytes that potently regulates heart development. Postnatal Ebf1 deficient hearts are characterized by marked myocardial hypercellularity and reduced cardiomyocyte size, as well as ventricular conduction system hypoplasia and conduction system disease. Growth abnormalities in Ebf1 knockout hearts are observed as early as embryonic day 13.5, with dysregulated cell cycling, myocardial hyperplasia, and immature trabecular morphology. Transcriptional profiling of Ebf1-deficient non-myocytes isolated from embryonic hearts demonstrates dysregulation of Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) targets, while ATAC-Seq reveals differences in chromatin accessibility near many of these same genes. Gene set enrichment analysis of differentially expressed genes in cardiomyocytes isolated from E13.5 hearts of wildtype and Ebf1 deficientmice reveals significant enrichment of MYC targets, and consistent with this finding, we observe increased abundance of MYC in mutant hearts. Mechanistically, we show that EBF1-deficient non-myocytes, but not wildtype non-myocytes, are sufficient to induce excessive accumulation of nuclear-localized MYC protein in co-cultured wildtype cardiomyocytes. Finally, we demonstrate that BMP signaling induces Ebf1 expression in embryonic heart cultures and controls a gene program enriched in EBF1 targets. Taken together, these results reveal a novel non-cell autonomous pathway controlling cardiac growth and development.

Macrophages directly contribute collagen to scar formation during zebrafish heart regeneration and mouse heart repair

Project description:The adult mammalian heart heals after myocardial infarction (MI) by deposition of scar tissue, leading to downstream arrhythmia, remodelling and heart failure1. In contrast, adult zebrafish and neonatal mouse hearts are capable of regenerating after injury. Macrophages are key mediators of tissue repair and appear to be required for both regeneration and healing by scar formation, but the mechanisms underlying these distinct roles are poorly understood2-4. Here we investigated how macrophages differentially influence the mode of repair by determining their responses in scar-free versus scar-induced healing, comparing ventricular resection with cryo-injured adult zebrafish hearts and neonatal versus adult mouse hearts after MI. Unbiased transcriptomics revealed molecular programmes implicating macrophages in the initiation and resolution of inflammation to dictate the kinetics of scarring during zebrafish regeneration and the activation of direct and indirect pathways to drive fibrosis in the adult mouse heart. Most notably we observed up-regulation of collagen isoforms in both zebrafish and mouse macrophages following injury. Adoptive transfer of macrophages, from resected zebrafish hearts into cryo-injured hosts and splenic monocyte-derived macrophages from adult mouse donors into neonatal hearts, enhanced scar formation and induced fibrosis, respectively, via cell autonomous production of collagen. In zebrafish, macrophage-specific targeting of collagen 4a binding protein and cognate collagen 4a1 followed by transfer led to significantly reduced scarring in cryo-injured hosts, as further evidence of a direct macrophage contribution to collagen deposition and scar formation. These findings contrast with the current model of scarring, whereby collagen is laid down exclusively by myofibroblasts, and implicate macrophages as critical regulators of heart repair.

Alpha-1 adrenergic signaling drives cardiac regeneration through activation of extracellular matrix remodeling transcriptional program in macrophages

Project description:Autonomic drive plays a pivotal role in cardiac regeneration. Sympathetic or cholinergic denervation impairs myocardial regrowth in neonatal mouse and zebrafish hearts. Here, we uncovered the mechanistic underpinning of adrenergic signaling in regenerative repair of the heart to be critically dependent on immunomodulation. Through pharmacological and genetic manipulations, we identified adrenergic receptor alpha-1 as a key regulator of macrophage phenotypic diversification following myocardial infarction in zebrafish. Single-cell transcriptomics revealed that the receptor signals activation of an ‘extracellular matrix remodeling’ transcriptional program characterized by upregulation of matrix proteins and matrix-modifying enzymes in a macrophage subset. Functionally, adrenergic receptor alpha-1-activated macrophages regulate fibrotic response of the heart by mediating collagenous extracellular matrix turnover and myofibroblast activation, allowing vascularization and cardiomyocyte cell cycle entry at the infarcted lesion. These findings not only unravel the mechanism of adrenergic signaling in macrophage phenotypic and functional determination, but also highlight the potential of neural modulation for regulation of fibrosis and coordination of myocardial regenerative response.

Transcriptomic analysis of myocardium-specific Creld1 knockout mice at E13.5 and P3

Project description:Purpose: The aim of the study was to decipher the function of Creld1 in the myocardium during embryonic and postnatal heart development. Methods: We generated conditional knockout (KO) mice lacking Creld1 in cells expressing the Myosine Heavy Chain (MyHC, myocardial cells). Embryonic (E13.5, n=4) and postnatal (P3, n=3) hearts from both wild-type (WT) and KO mice were isolated and postnatal hearts were further split into atria and ventricles. Total RNA was extracted, mRNA purified, converted into cDNA and sequenced using a NextSeq500 system (Illumina).The reads passing default quality filters were aligned to the mouse genome (mm10). Results: More than 5.1 million aligned reads were retrieved in each sample.The expression profiles of the postnatal KO samples underline drastic anormalies in the hearts and commencing heart failure particularly in the atria. In embryonic KO hearts the transciption of Notch1 signalling components and consequently extracellular matrix (ECM) homeostasis was altered, whereas transcription in Nfatc1 and Vegf signalling pathways was unchanged. Conclusion: This study shows that myocardial Creld1 is a key morphogenic factor in the developing heart and as it regulates Notch1 signalling and, thereby, the ECM during cardiac wall development.

YAP Drives Assembly of a Spatially Colocalized Cellular Triad Required for Heart Renewal

Project description:After myocardial infarction (MI), the heart fails to renew, and the cardiac microenvironment is irreversibly disrupted. Inactivation of the Hippo signaling pathway can rebuild the post ischemic microenvironment and improve cardiac function. We investigated spatially resolved cellular relationships of neonatal and adult renewal-competent hearts to gain insight into inefficient mammalian heart renewal. Spatial transcriptomics (ST) and single-cell sequencing of adult control hearts and hearts expressing YAP5SA, an active version of the Hippo signaling pathway effector YAP, which models heart renewal, revealed a conserved, renewal-competent cardiomyocyte (CM) population in control hearts and amplified in YAP5SA hearts. This CM population was also found in the wildtype, renewal competent neonatal heart after myocardial infarction, as well as the adult human heart. Cardiac fibroblasts (CFs), expressing complement C3, colocalized with these CMs. In YAP5SA hearts and neonatal hearts post-MI, macrophages (MPs) expressing complement receptor C3ar1 also colocalized, creating a pro-renewal niche composed of the CM, CF and MP triad. Both C3 and C3ar1 loss-of-function in YAP5SA hearts similarly suppressed heart renewal, indicating that C3-expressing CFs, C3ar1-expressing MPs, and complement system signaling play a direct role in heart renewal
