Project description:The contraction pattern of the heart relies on the activation and conduction of the electrical impulse. Perturbations of cardiac conduction have been associated with congenital and acquired arrhythmias as well as cardiac arrest. The pattern of conduction depends on the regulation of heterogeneous gene expression by key transcription factors and transcriptional enhancers. Here, we assessed the genome-wide occupation of conduction system–regulating transcription factors TBX3 in the mouse heart, uncovering cardiac enhancers throughout the genome.

Project description:to study the effect of induced expression of TBX3 within the atrium of the heart Background: Treatment of congenital or acquired disorders of the sinus node or atrioventricular node requires insight into the molecular mechanisms for the development and homeostasis of these pacemaker tissues. In the developing heart, transcription factor TBX3 is required for pacemaker and conduction system development. Here, we explore the role of TBX3 in the adult heart and investigate whether TBX3 is able to reprogram terminally differentiated working cardiomyocytes into pacemaker cells. This would be an attractive approach in biological pacemaker formation. Methods and results: TBX3 expression was ectopically induced in cardiomyocytes of adult transgenic mice. Expression analysis revealed an efficient switch from the working myocardial expression profile to that of the pacemaker myocardium. This included suppression of genes encoding gap junction subunits (Cx40, Cx43), the cardiac Na+ channel (NaV1.5; INa) and inwardly rectifying K+ ion channels (Kir-genes; IK1). Concordantly, we observed conduction slowing in these hearts, and reductions in INa and IK1 in cardiomyocytes isolated from these hearts. The reduction in IK1 resulted in a more depolarized maximum diastolic potential, thus enabling spontaneous diastolic depolarization. Neither ectopic pacemaker activity nor pacemaker current, If, were observed. Lentiviral expression of TBX3 in ventricular cardiomyocytes resulted in conduction slowing and development of heterogeneous phenotypes, including depolarized and spontaneously active cardiomyocytes. Conclusions: TBX3 partially reprograms terminally differentiated working cardiomyocytes into pacemaker-like cells and induces important pacemaker properties. The ability of TBX3 to reduce intercellular coupling to overcome current-to-load mismatch and the ability to reduce IK1 density to enable diastolic depolarization, are very promising TBX3 characteristics for biological pacemaker formation strategies. 5 TBX3 expressing left atrial appendage samples (Tamoxifen-treated Myh6MCM;CTBX3 adult male mice) and 6 controls ((Tamoxifen-treated Myh6MCM adult male mice)

Project description:The atrioventricular (AV) node is a recurrent source of potentially life-threatening arrhythmias. Nevertheless, limited data are available on its developmental control or molecular phenotype. We used a novel AV node-specific reporter mouse to gain insight into the gene programs determining the formation and phenotype of the AV node. In the transgenic reporter, green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression was driven by 160 kbp of Tbx3 and flanking sequences. GFP was selectively expressed in the AV canal of embryos, and in the AV node of adults, while all other Tbx3+ conduction system components, including the AV bundle, were devoid of GFP expression. Fluorescent AV nodal (Tbx3BAC-Egfp) and complementary working (NppaBAC336-Egfp) myocardial cell populations of E10.5 embryos and E17.5 fetuses were purified using fluorescence-activated cell sorting, and their expression profiles were assessed by microarray analysis. We constructed a comprehensive list of sodium, calcium, and potassium channels specific for the nodal or working myocard. Furthermore, the data revealed that the AV node and the working myocardium phenotypes diverge during development, but that the functional gene classes characteristic for both compartments are maintained. Interestingly, the AV node-specific gene repertoire consisted of multiple neurotrophic factors not yet appreciated to play a role in nodal development. These data present the first genome-wide transcription profiles of the AV node during development, providing valuable information concerning its molecular identity.

Project description:Rationale: The atrioventricular conduction system controls ventricular activation and is delineated by expression of Tbx3. Genome-wide association studies identified genetic variants near TBX3 associated with conduction velocities (PR interval and QRS duration), suggesting minor changes in TBX3 dose affect conduction system function. Objective: To assess whether and how Tbx3 dose reduction affects the integrity of the atrioventricular conduction system. Methods and Results: Electrocardiograms revealed a PR interval shortening and prolonged QT interval and QRS duration in heterozygous Tbx3 mutants compared to wild-types. We observed that the atrioventricular bundle and proximal bundle branches of Tbx3+/- mice after birth became hypoplastic, whereas the size of the atrioventricular node was not affected. The transcriptomes of wild-type and Tbx3+/- atrioventricular nodes were analyzed using BAC-Tbx3-Egfp mice enabling specific isolation of the atrioventricular node by laser capture microdissection followed by RNA-sequencing. Hundreds of genes were slightly but consistently deregulated. Cross-referencing with transcriptome data of isolated cardiomyocytes of the conduction system and chamber myocardium derived from Tbx3+/Venus;BAC-Nppb-Katushka hearts revealed that a set of chamber-enriched genes, including Kcne1 (MinK), Ryr2, and Scn5a, were upregulated in Tbx3+/- atrioventricular nodes, whereas conduction system-enriched genes, including Hcn4 and Cacna2d2, were downregulated. We performed ATAC-sequencing on purified fetal Tbx3+ atrioventricular cardiomyocytes to identify potential atrioventricular-specific regulatory DNA elements on a genome-wide scale, and identified regulatory elements mediating the Tbx3-dependent regulation of Ryr2 and other target genes in the atrioventricular node. Conclusions: Tbx3 dose reduction results in deregulation of a large number of genes affecting the electrical properties of the atrioventricular node and causes failure to maintain the structural integrity of the atrioventricular bundle. These data provide a mechanism underlying differences in PR interval and QRS duration in individuals carrying associated variants in the TBX3 locus.

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common muscular dystrophy in adults, is caused by the expression of expanded CUG repeats, which sequester the MBNL1 RNA binding protein. Cardiac involvement, which is characterized by conduction defects and arrhythmias, is the second cause of death of DM1 patients. Down-expression of miR-1 in mice leads to cardiac conduction disturbances and to arrhythmias. Here, we show that miR-1 expression is decreased in DM1 hearts, due to a mis-regulation of the processing of pre-miR-1. MBNL1 binds to UGC motifs located within the pre-miR-1 loop and competes binding of LIN28, which promotes uridylation and blocks pre-miR-1 processing. Finally and consistent with a down-regulation of miR-1, known, GJA1, and novel, CACNA1C, targets of miR-1 are increased in DM1 hearts. CACNA1C and GJA1 encode the main calcium and gap junction channels in heart, respectively, and their mis-regulation may contribute to the heart arrythmias and conduction defects observed in DM1 patients. Total RNA of 3 control and 3 CDM1 primary culture of muscle cells differentiated 10 days into myotubes was extracted using Trizol and analyzed by Agilent microarray.
