Project description:Precision mass spectrometry, animal models and organ-on-a-chip (OOC) systems have emerged as promising experimental strategies to study the molecular mechanisms governing human biology and disease, including the molecular basis of cardiovascular disorders like fibrosis where access to patient samples is limiting and subject to confounding variables. Nevertheless, no systematic comparisons have ever been reported, precluding an objective assessment of cross-platform consistency, performance and bias. Here, we apply and evaluate an integrative mass spectrometry-based platform that allows for quantitative global phospho/proteomic surveys of normal and afflicted tissue from human, mouse and OOC-derived specimens. The applicability and utility of this approach was tested in the context of cardiac fibrosis through comprehensive analyses of fibrotic cardiomyocyte samples from Biowire OOC specimens, and cardiac tissue explants from hypertrophic patients and a mouse genetic model, and show that clinically meaningful biological inferences can be generated by leveraging commonalities and unique attributes generated across each platform.

Project description:Fibrotic changes in the myocardium and cardiac arrhythmias represent fatal complications in rheumatic disease systemic sclerosis (SSc), however the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Fos-related antigen-2 (Fosl-2) has been implicated in development of organ fibrosis. Mice overexpressing Fosl-2 (Fosl-2tg) showed interstitial cardiac fibrosis, disorganized connexin43/40 in intercalated discs and deregulated expression of genes controlling conduction system. Fosl-2tg mice developed higher heart rate (HR), prolonged QT intervals, arrhythmias with prevalence of premature ventricular contractions, ventricular tachycardias, II-degree atrio-ventricular blocks and reduced HR variability. Following stimulation with isoproterenol Fosl-2tg mice showed impaired HR response. To assess the role of inflammation in cardiac fibrosis we used Rag2-/-Fosl-2tg mice lacking T/B cells. These mice showed no myocardial fibrosis and ECG abnormalities. Transcriptomics analysis of cardiac Rag-2-/-Fosl-2wt/Rag2-/-Fosl-2tg/Fosl-2tg fibroblasts revealed that systemic inflammation triggered fibrotic and arrhythmogenic alterations while Fosl-2-overexpression mediated profibrotic signature. In human cardiac fibroblasts FOSL-2-overexpression enhanced myofibroblast signature under proinflammatory or profibrotic stimuli. These results demonstrate that under immunofibrotic conditions activator protein 1 transcription factor component Fosl-2 exaggerates myocardial fibrosis, arrhythmias and aberrant response to stress.

Project description:Inflammation and tissue fibrosis co-exist and are causally linked to organ dysfunction. However, the molecular mechanisms driving immune-fibroblast crosstalk in human cardiac disease remains unexplored, and there are currently no approved treatments that directly target cardiac fibrosis. Here, we performed multi-omic single-cell gene expression, epitope mapping, and chromatin accessibility profiling in 45 donors, acutely infarcted, and chronically failing human hearts. We identified a disease-associated fibroblast trajectory marked by cell surface expression of fibroblast activator protein (FAP), which diverged into distinct myofibroblasts and pro-fibrotic fibroblast populations, the latter resembling matrifibrocytes. We lineage traced FAP fibroblasts in vivo and showed that they contribute to the POSTN lineage but not the myofibroblast lineage. We assessed the applicability of experimental systems to model tissue fibrosis and demonstrated that 3 different in vivo mouse models of cardiac injury were superior compared to cultured human heart and dermal fibroblasts in recapitulating the human disease phenotype. Ligand-receptor analysis and spatial transcriptomics predicted that interactions between C-C chemokine receptor type 2 (CCR2) macrophages and fibroblasts mediated by interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) signaling drove the emergence of pro-fibrotic fibroblasts within spatially defined niches. In vivo, we deleted the IL-1 receptor on fibroblasts, the IL-1β ligand in CCR2 monocytes and macrophages, and inhibited IL-1β signaling using a monoclonal antibody and showed fewer pro-fibrotic fibroblasts, decreased cardiac fibrosis, and improved cardiac function. Herein, we characterize fibroblast lineage diversification in the failing heart and showed a subset of macrophages signal to fibroblasts via IL-1β and rewire their gene regulatory network and differentiation trajectory towards a pro-fibrotic fibroblast phenotype. These findings highlight the broader therapeutic potential of targeting inflammation to treat tissue fibrosis and preserve organ function.

Project description:Activated cardiac fibroblasts (CF) play a central role in cardiac fibrosis, a condition associated with most cardiovascular diseases. Conversion of quiescent into activated CF sustains heart integrity upon injury. However, permanence of CF in active state inflicts deleterious heart function effects. Mechanisms underlying this cell state conversion are still not fully disclosed, contributing to a limited target space and lack of effective anti-fibrotic therapies. To prioritize targets for drug development, we studied CF remodeling upon activation at transcriptomic and proteomic levels, using three different cell sources: primary adult CF (aHCF), primary fetal CF (fHCF), and induced pluripotent stem cells derived CF (hiPSC-CF). All cell sources showed a convergent response upon activation, with clear morphological and molecular remodeling associated with cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Quantitative proteomic analysis identified known cardiac fibrosis markers, such as FN1, CCN2 and Serpine1, but also revealed targets not previously associated with this condition, including MRC2, IGFBP7 and NT5DC2. Exploring such targets to modulate CF phenotype represents a valuable opportunity for development of anti-fibrotic therapies. Also, we demonstrate that hiPSC-CF is a suitable cell source for preclinical research, displaying significantly lower basal activation level relative to primary cells, while being able to elicit a convergent response upon stimuli.

Project description:Myocardial infarctions cause hypoxic injury to downstream tissue and a consequent fibrotic remodeling process to replace injured tissue with a scar. Scar formation occurs through phases of wound healing in which stimuli such as transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) drive cardiac fibroblasts to activate into a myofibroblast phenotype and deposit matrix molecules that form a scar. While this is necessary to repair injured tissue, excessive fibrosis commonly occurs which is correlated with heart failure. Therefore, defining cardiac fibroblast phenotypes under hypoxic stimuli and TGF-β is essential for understanding and treating pathological fibrosis. We robustly characterized fibroblast phenotype through immunofluorescence, quantitative RT-PCR, and proteomic analysis, after either TGF-β treatment or hypoxia durations that mimic acute hypoxic injury post-infarction. We find that hypoxic fibroblasts respond to low oxygen with increased hypoxia inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) but not HIF-2 activity by 4h. This is accompanied by increased gene and protein levels of VEGFA and LOX, respectively, which are both targets of HIF-1. Both TGF-β1 and hypoxia inhibit proliferation by 24h. While TGF-β1 treatment upregulated various fibrotic pathways, hypoxia causes a global reduction in protein synthesis, including collagen biosynthesis. This study discerns overlapping from distinctive outcomes of TGF-β1 and hypoxia treatment, which is important for elucidating their roles in fibrotic remodeling post-MI.

Project description:Cardiac fibrosis is a common feature of chronic heart failure. Iroquois homeobox (IRX) family of transcription factors plays important roles in heart development; however, the role of IRX2 in cardiac fibrosis has not been clarified. Here we report that IRX2 expression is significantly upregulated in the fibrotic hearts. Increased IRX2 expression is mainly derived from cardiac fibroblast (CF) during the angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced fibrotic response. Using two CF-specific Irx2-knockout mouse models, we show that deletion of Irx2 in CFs protect against pathological fibrotic remodelling and improve cardiac function in mice. In contrast, Irx2 gain of function in CFs exaggerate fibrotic remodelling. Mechanistically, we find that IRX2 directly binds to the promoter of the early growth response factor 1 (EGR1) and subsequently initiates the transcription of several fibrosis-related genes. Our study provides the evidence that IRX2 regulates the EGR1 pathway upon Ang II stimulation and drives cardiac fibrosis.
