Mouse sinoatrial node transcriptome

ABSTRACT: RNA Sequencing of Mouse Sinoatrial Node Reveals an Upstream Regulatory Role for Islet-1 in Cardiac Pacemaker Cells Rationale: Treatment of sinus node disease with regenerative or cell-based therapies will require a detailed understanding of gene regulatory networks in cardiac pacemaker cells (PCs). Objective: To characterize the transcriptome of PCs using RNA sequencing, and to identify transcriptional networks responsible for PC gene expression. Methods and Results: We used laser capture micro-dissection (LCM) on a sinus node reporter mouse line to isolate RNA from PCs for RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Differential expression and network analysis identified novel SAN-enriched genes, and predicted that the transcription factor Islet-1 (Isl1) is active in developing pacemaker cells. RNA-Seq on SAN tissue lacking Isl1 established that Isl1 is an important transcriptional regulator within the developing SAN. Conclusions: (1) The PC transcriptome diverges sharply from other cardiomyocytes; (2) Isl1 is a positive transcriptional regulator of the PC gene expression program.

Genome-wide mRNA expression analyses revealed dysregulation of genes important for SAN function in Hcn4-CreERT2;Isl1 mutants.

Project description:Understanding factors that drive development and function of the sinoatrial node (SAN) is crucial to development of potential therapies for sinus arrhythmias, including potential generation of biological pacemakers. Here, we identify a key cell autonomous role for the LIM homeodomain transcription factor ISL1 for survival, proliferation and function of pacemaker cells throughout development. Analysis of several Isl1 mutant mouse lines, including one in which Isl1 was specifically ablated in SAN (Hcn4- CreERT2;Isl1) revealed an early requirement for Isl1 within SAN for embryonic viability. RNA-seq analyses on FACS purified SAN cells revealed dysregulation of a number of genes critical for SAN function to be downstream of ISL1 in Hcn4-CreERT2;Isl1 mutants, including transcription factors and ion channels. Our studies demonstrated that ISL1 regulated approximately one third of genes that were significantly expressed in SAN, and highlight the potential for utilization of ISL1 in combination with other SAN transcription factors for generating pacemaker cells for therapy or drug screening purposes. Results also suggest Isl1 as a candidate gene for sick sinus syndrome. RNA-seq analyses were performed on samples from Hcn4-CreERT2;Isl1 mutant and control SANs

Epigenetic Profiling of Cardiac Pacemaker Cells Reveals a Conserved Isl1 Enhancer That Regulates Sinoatrial Node Development and Function

Project description:Cardiac pacemaker cells (PCs) in the sinoatrial node (SAN) have a distinct gene expression program that allows them to fire automatically and initiate the heartbeat. Although critical SAN transcription factors, including Isl1, have been identified, the cis-regulatory architecture that governs PC-specific gene expression is not understood, and discrete enhancers required for gene regulation in the SAN have not been identified. We used ATAC-Seq on sorted neonatal mouse SAN to define regions of open chromatin in PCs and neighboring right atrial cardiomyocytes. PC-specific ATAC-seq peaks were located near established SAN genes and were enriched for distinct sets of transcription factor binding sites. In-vivo testing of a novel ATAC-seq peak at the Isl1 locus defined a regulatory element that was active specifically in the cardiac inflow at E8.5 and throughout later SAN development and maturation. Deletion of the enhancer uncovered a role for this cis-regulatory element in SAN development and function. The mouse SAN enhancer also directed reporter activity to the inflow tract in developing zebrafish hearts, demonstrating deep conservation of its upstream regulatory network. Finally, single nucleotide polymorphisms in the human genome that occur near the region syntenic to the mouse enhancer exhibit significant associations with resting heart rate in human populations.

Genome-wide chromatin-immunoprecipitation studies of purified SAN cells reveals critical direct targets of ISL1 and suggests potential co-factor families for ISL1 action in SAN cells

Project description:Understanding factors that drive development and function of the sinoatrial node (SAN) is crucial to development of potential therapies for sinus arrhythmias, including potential generation of biological pacemakers. Here, we identify a key cell autonomous role for the LIM homeodomain transcription factor ISL1 for survival, proliferation and function of pacemaker cells throughout development. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays performed utilizing antibody to ISL1 in chromatin extracts from FACS purified SAN cells demonstrated that ISL1 directly binds genomic regions within several genes critical for normal pacemaker function, including subunits of the L-type calcium channel, Ank2, and Tbx3. Other genes implicated in abnormal heart rhythm in humans were also direct downstream targets of ISL1 in SAN cells. Our studies represent the first in vivo ChIP-seq studies for SAN cells which provide a basis for further exploration of factors critical to SAN formation and function and highlight the potential for utilization of ISL1 in combination with other SAN transcription factors for generating pacemaker cells for therapy or drug screening purposes. ISL1 ChIP-seq profiling was performed in Hcn4-H2BGFP SAN cells purified from neonatal hearts.

Odz4 upregulates SAN-specific genes to promote differentiation into cardiac pacemaker-like cells

Project description:Cardiac arrhythmias stemming from abnormal sinoatrial node (SAN) function can lead to sudden death. Developing a biological pacemaker device for treating sick sinus syndrome (SSS) could offer a potential cure. Understanding SAN differentiation is crucial, yet its regulatory mechanism remains unclear. We reanalyzed published RNA-seq data and identified Odz4 as a SAN-specific candidate. In situ hybridization revealed Odz4 expression in the cardiac crescent and throughout the cardiac conduction system (CCS). To assess role of Odz4 in CCS differentiation, we utilized a Tet-Off inducible system for its intracellular domain (ICD). Odz4-ICD exogenously expressing embryonic bodies (EBs) exhibited an increased propensity to develop into pacemaker-like cells with enhanced automaticity and upregulated expression of SAN-specific genes. CellChat and GO analyses unveiled SAN-specific enrichment of ligand-receptor sets, especially Ptn-Ncl, and extracellular matrix components in the Odz4-ICD exogenously expressing group. Our findings underscore the significance of Odz4 in SAN development and offer fresh insights into biological pacemaker establishment

Quantitative proteomics profiling determines the uniqueness of the sinus node

Project description:The sinus node is a collection of highly specialized cells that constitute the natural pacemaker activity of our heart. The protein expression landscape of the sinus node differs from the surrounding cardiac tissue, although it is primarily comprised of myocytes and fibroblasts like the rest of the cardiac tissue, endowing it with its unique ability to regulate heart rate. Here we performed quantitative proteomics experiments to profile protein expression in the pacemaker of the heart, and compared it to protein expression in the neighbouring atrial muscle. In summary, the quantitative proteomics data presented here offer a highly detailed insight into the unique composition of the pacemaker of our heart.

Cellular Heterogeneity Analysis of the Sinoatrial Node Region Identifies Novel His-bundle-like Cell and Endothelial Progenitor Subtypes

Project description:Aims: To gain insight into heterogeneity of pacemaker and conduction cells within the sinoatrial node (SAN) and characterize the transcriptome of cardiac endothelial cells (ECs) at single-cell resolution. Methods and results: Single-cell transcriptome analysis of fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS)-purified SAN cells and surrounding atrial cells from HCN4-GFP knockin mice at postnatal day 2 were performed. Subcluster analysis of SAN cardiomyocyte cluster identified three HCN4+ cell subtypes, including pacemaker cells (PCs), recently identified transitional cells (TCs), and a novel population of His-like conduction cells marked by His-bundle specific marker genes. We additionally refined the molecular signatures of PCs and TCs, and identified Vsnl1, Myl2 and Kcne1 as biomarkers of PCs, TCs and His-like respectively that persistently expressed in the SAN from E15.5 to adult. Furthermore, we observed three endothelial progenitor subtypes (endocardial progenitors, coronary vascular endothelial progenitors, and transitional endothelium migrated from endocardium to coronary vessels) in mouse heart and human fetal heart. These endothelial progenitor subtypes were further identified by mouse lineage tracing analysis. Conclusion: Our study provides a more comprehensive understanding of molecular and cellular signatures underlying pacemaking and conduction of the SAN, and offers new insight into lineage differentiation and diversification of cardiac ECs.

Hippo signaling pathway maintains sinoatrial node homeostasis

Project description:The sinoatrial node (SAN) functions as pacemaker of the heart to initiate and drive rhythmic heartbeats. The Hippo signaling pathway is a fundamental pathway for heart development and regeneration. Although abnormalities of Hippo pathway are associated with cardiac arrhythmias in human patients, yet its role in the SAN is unknown. We found that Lats1/2 inactivation caused severe sinoatrial node dysfunction (SND; sick sinus syndrome). Compared to the controls, Lats1/2 CKO mutants exhibited dysregulated calcium handling and increased fibrosis in the sinoatrial node, indicating Lats1/2 function through both cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous mechanisms. Notably, the Lats1/2 CKO phenotype was rescued by genetic deletion of Yap and Taz in the CCS, and these rescued mice had normal sinus rhythm and reduced fibrosis of the sinoatrial node, indicating that Lats1/2 function through Yap and Taz. CUT&Tag sequencing data showed that Yap regulates genes critical for calcium homeostasis such as Ryr2 and genes encoding paracrine factors important in intercellular communication and fibrosis induction such as Tgf-β1 and Tgf-β3. Consistently, Lats1/2 CKO mutants had decreased Ryr2 expression and increased Tgf-β1 and Tgf-β3 expression compared with control mice. We reveal for the first time that the canonical Hippo-Yap pathway has a pivotal role in functional homeostasis of the sinoatrial node.
