Project description:Background: Genomic and experimental studies suggest a role for PITX2 in atrial fibrillation (AF). To assess whether this association is relevant for recurrent AF in patients, we tested whether left atrial PITX2 affects recurrent AF after AF ablation. Methods: mRNA concentrations of PITX2 and its cardiac isoform, PITX2c, were quantified in left atrial appendages (LAA) from patients undergoing thoracoscopic AF ablation, either in whole LAA tissue (n=83) or in LAA cardiomyocytes (n=52), and combined with clinical parameters to predict AF recurrence. Literature suggests bone morphogenetic protein 10 (BMP10) as a PITX2-repressed, atrial-specific, secreted protein. BMP10 plasma concentrations were combined with eleven cardiovascular biomarkers and clinical parameters to predict recurrent AF after catheter ablation in 359 patients. Results: Reduced cardiomyocyte PITX2 concentrations, but not whole LAA tissue PITX2, were associated with AF recurrence after thoracoscopic AF ablation (16% decreased recurrence per 2-(ΔΔCt) increase in PITX2). RNA sequencing, qPCR and Western blotting confirmed BMP10 as one of most PITX2-repressed atrial genes. Left atrial size (hazard ratio per mm increase, HR [95%CI] 1.055 [1.028, 1.082], non-paroxysmal AF (HR 1.672 [1.206, 2.318]) and elevated BMP10 (HR 1.339 [CI 1.159, 1.546] per quartile increase) were predictive of recurrent AF. BMP10 outperformed eleven other cardiovascular biomarkers in predicting recurrent AF. Conclusions: Reduced left atrial cardiomyocyte PITX2 and elevated plasma concentrations of the PITX2-repressed, secreted, atrial protein BMP10 identify patients at risk of recurrent AF after ablation.

Project description:Introduction: Effective predictive biomarkers for selection of patients benefiting from adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) are needed. Based on a previously validated methodology, molecular profiles of predicted sensitivity in two patient cohorts are presented. Methods: The profiles are correlations between in vitro sensitivity to cisplatin and vinorelbine and baseline mRNA expression of the 60 cell lines in the National Cancer Institute panel. An applied clinical samples filter focused the profiles to clinically relevant genes. The profiles were tested on 1) snap-frozen tumors from 133 patients with completely resected stage 1B-2 NSCLC randomized to adjuvant cisplatin and vinorelbine (ACV, n=71) or no adjuvant treatment (OBS, n=62) [GSE14814] and 2) formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) pre-treatment tumors from 95 patients with completely resected stage 1A-3B NSCLC receiving adjuvant cisplatin and vinorelbine. Results: The combined cisplatin and vinorelbine profiles showed: 1) univariate Hazard Ratio (HR) for sensitive versus resistant of 0.265 (95% CI:0.079-0.889, p=0.032) in the ACV cohort and a HR of 0.28 in a multivariate model (95% CI:0.08-1.04, p=0.0573); 2) significant prediction at 3 year survival from surgery in univariate (HR=0.138 (95% CI:0.035-0.537), p=0.004) and multivariate analysis (HR=0.14 (95% CI:0.030-0.6), p=0.0081). No discrimination was found in the OBS cohort (HR=1.328, p=0.60). The cisplatin predictor alone had similar figures with 1) univariate HR of 0.37 (95% CI:0.12-1.15, p=0.09) in the ACV cohort and 2) univariate HR of 0.14 (95% CI:0.03-0.59, p=0.0076) to three years. Functional analysis on the cisplatin profile revealed a group of upregulated genes related to RNA splicing as a part of DNA damage repair and apoptosis. Conclusions: Profiles derived from snap-frozen and FFPE NSCLC tissue were prognostic and predictive in the patients that received cisplatin and vinorelbine but not in the cohort that did not receive adjuvant treatment.

Project description:Catheter ablation is an effective treatment to prevent recurrence of Atrial fibrillation (AF) and can be used to maintain sinus rhythm and improve symptoms of AF, but to some extent it can cause a range of adverse effects associated with catheter ablation. Pulsed electric field is a newer treatment modality to replace catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation due to its fewer side effects. Different from radiofrequency ablation, which destroys diseased myocardial tissue by thermal energy, pulsed electric field ablation achieves the purpose of atrial fibrillation ablation by inducing damage to diseased myocardial cells through irreversible electroporation. However, some experimental parameters and mechanism of pulsed electric fields remain unclear.

Project description:Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) causes atrial remodeling, and the left atrium (LA) is the favored substrate for maintaining AF. However, it remains unclear if AF remodels both atria differently and contributes to LA arrhythmogenesis and thrombogenesis. Results: AF was associated with differential LA-to-RA gene expression related to specific ion channels and pathways as well as upregulation of thrombogenesis-related genes in the LA appendage. Targeting the molecular mechanisms underlying the LA-to-RA difference and AF-related remodeling in the LA appendage may help provide new therapeutic options in treating AF and preventing thromboembolism in AF. Paired left atrial and right atrial specimens were obtained from 13 patients with persistent AF receiving valvular surgery. The Paired specimens were sent for microarray comparison. Selected results were validated by quantitative real time-PCR (q-PCR) and Western blotting. Ultrastructural changes in the atria were evaluated by immunohistochemistry.

Project description:Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common tachyarrhythmia and seriously affects human health. Key targets of AF bioinformatics analysis can help to better understand the pathogenesis of AF and develop therapeutic targets. The left atrial appendage tissue of 20 patients with AF and 10 patients with sinus rhythm were collected for sequencing, and the expression data of the atrial tissue were obtained. Based on this, 2578 differentially expressed genes were obtained through differential analysis. Different express genes (DEGs) were functionally enriched on Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), mainly focusing on neuroactive ligand-receptor interactions, neuronal cell body pathways, regulation of neurogenesis, and neuronal death，regulation of neuronal death, etc. Secondly, 14 significant module genes were obtained by analyzing the weighted gene co-expression network of DEGs. Next, LASSO and SVM analyzes were performed on the differential genes, and the results were in good agreement with the calibration curve of the nomogram model for predicting AF constructed by the weighted gene co-expression network key genes. The significant module genes obtained by the area under the ROC curve (AUC) analysis were analyzed. Through crossover, two key disease characteristic genes related to AF, HOXA2 and RND2, were screened out. RND2 was selected for further research, and qPCR verified the expression of RND2 in sinus rhythm patients and AF patients. Patients with sinus rhythm were significantly higher than those in AF patients. Our study shows that RND2 can be used as a new target for the diagnosis and treatment of AF.

Project description:Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common persistent arrhythmia that affect 1–2% of the general population. People with AF display an array of complications cardiogenic stroke and systemic embolism caused by hemodynamic instability and blood hypercoagulability in clinical practice. However, it’s still unclear whether and how ubiquitylated proteins react to AF in the left atrial appendage of patients with AF and valvular heart disease. This theory focuses on the changes of ubiquitylated proteins in atrial fibrillation associated with heart valve disease. We firstly widely analysis the proteins ubiquitination in patients with atrial fibrillation.

Project description:Our study aims to elucidate the role of lncRNA-mRNA regulatory networks in AF recurrence after catheter ablation. We performed RNA sequencing to profile the transcriptomes of 5 samples from atrial fibrillation recurrence and 5 samples from sinus rhythm maintenance. 96 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 203 differentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (DE-lncRNAs) were identified between atrial fibrillation recurrence group and sinus rhythm maintenance group. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis showed that DEGs were enriched in “regulation of immune response”, and “regulation of immune system process” for biological processes (BP), enriched in “extracellular matrix”, “cell-cell junction” for cellular components (CC), and enriched in “signaling adaptor activity”, “protein-macromolecule adaptor activity” for molecular functions (MF). For KEGG analysis, DEGs are associated with “PI3K-Akt signaling pathway”, “MAPK signaling pathway”. 9 hub genes (MMP9, IGF2, FGFR1, HSPG2, GZMB, PEG10, GNLY, COL6A1, and KCNE3) were identified through the Protein-Protein Interaction network. LncRNA-TMEM51-AS1-201 was identified as a core regulator and may impact AF recurrence after catheter ablation by regulating “COL6A1, FGFR1, HSPG2, and IGF2.”

Project description:Background Atrial fibrosis plays a critical role in the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). Exosome is a promising cell-free therapeutic approach for the treatment of AF. The purpose of this study was to explore the mechanisms underlying exosomes derived from atrial myocytes regulated atrial remodeling and ask whether their manipulation allows for therapeutic modulation of fibrosis potential abnormalities during AF. Methods We isolated exosomes from atrial myocytes and patients serum, microRNA (miRNA) sequencing analyzed the exosomal miRNAs in atrial myocytes-exosomes and patients serum-exosomes. mRNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis corroborate the key gene as direct targets of miR-210-3p. Results The miRNAs sequencing analysis identified that miR-210-3p expression significantly increased in exosomes of tachypacing atrial myocytes and serum of AF patients. In vitro, the analysis showed that miR-210-3p inhibitor reversed tachypacing-induced proliferation and collagen synthesis in atrial fibroblasts. Accordingly, KO miR-210-3p could reduce the incidence of AF and ameliorate atrial fibrosis induced by Ang Ⅱ. The mRNA sequencing analysis and Dual-Luciferase reporter assay proved that glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase 1-like (GPD1L) is the potential target gene of miR-210-3p. The functional analysis suggests that GPD1L regulated atrial fibrosis via PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. Besides, silencing GPD1L in atrial fibroblasts induced cells proliferation and these effects could be reversed by PI3K inhibitor (LY294002). Conclusion We demonstrate that atrial myocytes-derived exosomal miR-210-3p promoted the proliferation and collagen synthesis via inhibiting GPD1L in atrial fibroblasts. Preventing pathological crosstalk between atrial myocytes and fibroblasts may be as a novel target to improve atrial fibrosis in AF.

Project description:Objectives: We studied the signal transduction of atrial structural remodelling that contributes to the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation (AF). Backround: Fibrosis is a hallmark of arrhythmogenic structural remodelling but the underlying molecular mechanisms are incompletely understood. Methods: We performed transcriptional profiling of left atrial myocardium (LA) from patients with AF and sinus rhythm (SR) and applied cultured primary cardiac cells and transgenic mice with overexpression of constitutively active V12Rac1 (RacET) who develop AF at old age to characterize mediators of the signal transduction of atrial remodeling. Results: LA from patients with AF showed a marked upregulation of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) expression compared SR patients. This was associated with increased fibrosis, NADPH-oxidase-, Rac1- and RhoA activity, upregulation of N-cadherin and connexin 43 (Cx43) expression and increased angiotensin II tissue concentration. In neonatal rat cardiac myocytes and -fibroblasts, a specific small molecule inhibitor of Rac1 or simvastatin completely prevented the angiotensin II induced upregulation of CTGF, Cx43 and N-cadherin expression. Transfection with small-inhibiting CTGF RNA blocked Cx43 and N-cadherin expression. RacET mice showed upregulation of CTGF, Cx43 and N-cadherin protein expression. Inhibition of Rac1 by oral statin treatment prevented these effects, identifying Rac1 as a key regulator of CTGF in vivo. Conclusion: The data identify CTGF as an important mediator of atrial structural remodelling during AF. Angiotensin II activates CTGF via activation of Rac1 and NADPH oxidase, leading to upregulation of Cx43, N-cadherin and interstitial fibrosis and therefore contributing to the signal transduction of atrial structural remodelling. Array design study consists of 5 Atrial Fibrillation patients and matched 5 samples of patients in sinus rhythm (controls).
