Project description:Background: The adult mammalian heart has limited ability to repair itself following injury. Zebrafish, newts and neonatal mice can regenerate cardiac tissue, largely by cardiac myocyte (CM) proliferation. It is unknown if hearts of young large mammals can regenerate. Methods: We examined the regenerative capacity of the pig heart in neonatal animals (ages: 2, 3 or 14 days postnatal) after myocardial infarction (MI) or sham procedure. Myocardial scar and left ventricular function were determined by cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging and echocardiography. Bromodeoxyuridine pulse-chase labeling, histology, immunohistochemistry and Western blotting were performed to study cell proliferation, sarcomere dynamics and cytokinesis and to quantify myocardial fibrosis. RNA-sequencing was also performed. Results: After MI, there was early and sustained recovery of cardiac function and wall thickness in the absence of fibrosis in 2-day old pigs. In contrast, older animals developed full-thickness myocardial scarring, thinned walls and did not recover function. Genome wide analyses of the infarct zone revealed a strong transcriptional signature of fibrosis in 14-day old animals that was absent in 2-day old pigs, which instead had enrichment for cytokinesis genes. In regenerating hearts of the younger animals, up to 10% of CMs in the border zone of the MI showed evidence of DNA replication that was associated with markers of myocyte division and sarcomere disassembly. Conclusions: Hearts of large mammals have regenerative capacity, likely driven by cardiac myocyte division, but this potential is lost immediately after birth.

Project description:Previous studies have suggested that the heart may be capable of limited repair and regeneration in response to a focal injury while other studies indicate that the mammalian heart has no regenerative capacity. To further explore this issue, we performed a series of superficial and transmural myocardial injuries in C57BL/6 and MRL/MpJ adult mice. At defined time intervals following the respective injury (Days 3, 14, 30 and 60) we examined cardiac function using echocardiography, morphology, FACS cell sorting for BrdU positive cells and molecular signature using microarray analysis. We observed complete restoration of myocardial function in the superficial MRL cryoinjured heart and significantly less scar formation as compared to the injured hearts of C57BL/6 mice. Following a severe transmural myocardial injury, the MRL mouse has increased survival and decreased ventricular remodeling compared to the C57BL/6 mouse but without evidence of significant regeneration. The cytoprotective program observed in the severely injured MRL heart is in part due to increased vasculogenesis and decreased apoptosis that limits the extension of the injury. We conclude that C57BL/6 and MRL injured hearts have evidence of limited myocardial regeneration, in response to superficial injury, but the improved function and survival observed in the MRL mouse heart following severe injury is not due to significant regenerative processes. Mouse hearts from C57BL/6 and MRL/MpJ strains were injured with LAD ligation and harvested at 3, 30 and 60 days after treatement.

Project description:Ischemic cardiopathy is the leading cause of death in the world, for which efficient regenerative therapy is not currently available. In mammals, after a myocardial infarction episode, the damaged myocardium is replaced by scar tissue featuring collagen deposition and tissue remodelling with negligible cardiomyocyte proliferation. Zebrafish, in contrast, display an extensive regenerative capacity as they are able to restore completely lost cardiac tissue after partial ventricular amputation. Due to the lack of genetic lineage tracing evidence, it is not yet clear if new cardiomyocytes arise from existing contractile cells or from an uncharacterised set of progenitors cells. Nonetheless, several genes and molecules have been shown to participate in this process, some of them being cardiomyocyte mitogens in vitro. Though questions as what are the early signals that drive the regenerative response and what is the relative role of each cardiac cell in this process still need to be answered, the zebrafish is emerging as a very valuable tool to understand heart regeneration and devise strategies that may be of potential value to treat human cardiac disease. Here, we performed a genome-wide transcriptome profile analysis focusing on the early time points of zebrafish heart regeneration and compared our results with those of previously published data. Our analyses confirmed the differential expression of several transcripts, and identified additional genes the expression of which is differentially regulated during zebrafish heart regeneration. We validated the microarray data by conventional and/or quantitative RT-PCR. For a subset of these genes, their expression pattern was analyzed by in situ hybridization and shown to be upregulated in the regenerating area of the heart. The specific role of these new transcripts during zebrafish heart regeneration was further investigated ex vivo using primary cultures of zebrafish cardiomyocytes and/or epicardial cells. Our results offer new insights into the biology of heart regeneration in the zebrafish and, together with future experiments in mammals, may be of potential interest for clinical applications. In order to study zebrafish heart regeneration, a time course experiment was realized where amputated heart regenerating were compared to control heart. Samples in triplicate were extracted at 1, 3, 5 and 7 days post-amputation.

Project description:Senescence plays a key role in various physiological and pathological processes. We reported that injury-induced transient senescence correlates with heart regeneration, yet the multi-omics profile and molecular underpinnings of regenerative senescence remain obscure. Using proteomics and single-cell RNA-sequencing, here we report the regenerative senescence multi-omic signature in the adult mouse heart and establish its role in neonatal heart regeneration and Agrin-mediated cardiac repair in adult mice. We identified early growth response protein 1 (Egr1) as a regulator of regenerative senescence in both models. In the neonatal heart, Egr1 facilitates angiogenesis and cardiomyocyte proliferation. In adult hearts, Agrin-induced senescence and repair require Egr1, activated by the integrin/FAK-ERK/Akt1 axis in cardiac fibroblasts. We also identified cathepsins as injury-induced senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) components that promote ECM degradation and potentially assist in reducing fibrosis. Altogether, we uncovered the molecular signature and functional benefits of regenerative senescence during heart regeneration, with Egr1 orchestrating the process.

Project description:The inability of the adult mammalian heart to regenerate following injury represents a major barrier in cardiovascular medicine. In contrast, the neonatal mammalian heart retains a transient capacity for regeneration, which is lost shortly after birth. Defining the molecular mechanisms that govern regenerative capacity in the neonatal period remains a central goal in cardiac biology. Here, we construct a transcriptional atlas of multiple cardiac cell populations, which enables comparative analyses of the regenerative (neonatal) versus non-regenerative (adult) state for the first time. This work provides a comprehensive transcriptional resource of multiple cardiac cell populations during cardiac development, repair and regeneration. Our findings define a transcriptional program underpinning the neonatal regenerative state and identifies an epigenetic barrier to re-induction of the regenerative program in adult cardiomyocytes.

Project description:Despite extensive studies on endogenous heart regeneration within the past 20 years, the players involved in initiating early regeneration events are far from clear. Here, we assessed the function of neutrophils, the first-responder cells to tissue damage, during heart regeneration. We detected rapid neutrophil mobilization to the injury site after ventricular amputation, peaking at 1-day post-amputation (dpa) and resolving by 3 dpa. Further analyses indicated neutrophil mobilization coincides with peak epicardial cell proliferation and recruited neutrophils associated with activated, expanding epicardial cells at 1 dpa. Neutrophil depletion inhibited myocardial regeneration and significantly reduced epicardial cell expansion, proliferation, and activation. To explore the molecular mechanism of neutrophils on the epicardial regenerative response, we performed scRNA-seq analysis of 1 dpa neutrophils and identified enrichment of the FGF and ERK signaling pathways. Pharmacological inhibition of FGF signaling indicated its’ requirement for epicardial cell expansion, while neutrophil depletion blocked ERK signaling activation in epicardial cells. Altogether, our studies revealed that neutrophils quickly induce epicardial cells, which later accumulate at the injury site and contribute to heart regeneration.

Project description:Irreversible blindness from glaucoma and optic neuropathies is attributed to retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) losing the ability to regenerate axons. While several transcription factors and proteins have demonstrated enhancement of axon regeneration after optic nerve injury, mechanisms contributing to the age-related decline in axon regenerative capacity remains elusive. Here, we show that microRNAs are differentially expressed during RGC development, and identify microRNA-19a (miR-19a) as a heterochronic marker; developmental decline of miR-19a relieves suppression of PTEN, a key regulator of axon regeneration, and serves as a temporal indicator of decreasing axon regenerative capacity. Intravitreal injection of miR-19a promotes axon regeneration after optic nerve crush in adult mice, and increases axon extension in RGCs isolated from aged human donors. This uncovers a previously unrecognized involvement of the miR-19a-PTEN axis in RGC axon regeneration, and demonstrates therapeutic potential of microRNA-mediated restoration of axon regenerative capacity via intravitreal injection in patients with optic neuropathies.

Project description:Mammalian organs vary widely in regenerative capacity, and poorly regenerative organs, such as the heart are particularly vulnerable to organ failure. Once established, heart failure commonly results in in considerable mortality and early demise. The Hippo pathway, a kinase cascade that prevents adult cardiomyocyte proliferation and regeneration, is upregulated in human heart failure. We show that deletion of the Hippo pathway component Salvador (Salv) in mouse hearts with established ischemic heart failure after myocardial infarction induced a reparative genetic program characterized by increased scar border vascularity, reduced fibrosis, and recovery of pumping function to that of sham-operated controls. To isolate cardiomyocyte specific translating mRNA we used TRAP (translating ribosomal affinity purification) followed by RNA sequencing. Hippo deficient cardiomyocytes had increased expression of proliferative, and stress response genes. Interestingly the mitochondrial quality control gene, Park2 was among the stress response genes. Further genetic studies indicated that Park2 was essential for heart repair in both the neonatal mouse and the adult Salv conditional knockout mouse. Thus, suggesting a requirement for mitochondrial quality control in the regenerating myocardium. Our findings indicate that the failing heart has a previously unrecognized capacity for repair involving more than cardiomyocyte renewal.
