Project description:As we age, structural changes contribute to progressive decline in organ function, which in the heart acts through poorly characterized mechanisms. Utilizing the rapidly aging fruit fly model with its significant homology to the human cardiac proteome, we found that cardiomyocytes exhibit progressive loss of Lamin C (mammalian Lamin A/C homologue) with age. Unlike other tissues and laminopathies, we observe decreasing nuclear size, while nuclear stiffness increases. Premature genetic reduction of Lamin C phenocopies aging’s effects on the nucleus, and subsequently decreases heart contractility and sarcomere organization. Surprisingly, Lamin C reduction downregulates myogenic transcription factors and cytoskeletal regulators, possibly via reduced chromatin accessibility. Subsequently, we find an adult-specific role for cardiac transcription factors and show that maintenance of Lamin C sustains their expression and prevents age-dependent cardiac decline. Our findings are conserved in aged non-human primates and mice, demonstrating age-dependent nuclear remodeling is a major mechanism contributing to cardiac dysfunction.

Project description:As we age, structural changes contribute to progressive decline in organ function, which in the heart act through poorly characterized mechanisms. Taking advantage of the short lifespan and conserved cardiac proteome of the fruit fly, we found that cardiomyocytes exhibit progressive loss of Lamin C (mammalian Lamin A/C homologue) with age, coincident with decreasing nuclear size and increasing nuclear stiffness. Premature genetic reduction of Lamin C phenocopies aging's effects on the nucleus, and subsequently decreases heart contractility and sarcomere organization. Surprisingly, Lamin C reduction downregulates myogenic transcription factors and cytoskeletal regulators, possibly via reduced chromatin accessibility. Subsequently, we find a role for cardiac transcription factors in regulating adult heart contractility and show that maintenance of Lamin C, and cardiac transcription factor expression, prevents age-dependent cardiac decline. Our findings are conserved in aged non-human primates and mice, demonstrating that age-dependent nuclear remodeling is a major mechanism contributing to cardiac dysfunction.

Project description:• Mutations in the LMNA gene encoding Lamin A and C (Lamin A/C), major components of the nuclear lamina, cause laminopathies including dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), but the underlying molecular mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Here, by leveraging single-cell RNA-seq, ATAC-seq, protein array, and electron microscopy analysis, we show that insufficient structural maturation of cardiomyocytes owing to trapping of transcription factor TEAD1 by mutant Lamin A/C at the nuclear membrane underlies the pathogenesis of Q353R- LMNA-related DCM. Inhibition of the Hippo pathway rescued the dysregulation of cardiac developmental genes by TEAD1 in LMNA-mutant cardiomyocytes. Single-cell RNA-seq of cardiac tissues from DCM patients with the LMNA mutation confirmed the dysregulated expression of TEAD1 target genes. Our results propose an intervention for transcriptional dysregulation as a potential treatment of LMNA-related DCM.

Project description:C57BL6/J mice were treated with anti-PD-1 for 2 or 4 weeks, or with isotype control antibody. In echocardiography, cardiac dysfunction was seen both after 2 and 4 weeks, with decreased ejection fraction and left ventricular dilation. Bulk RNA sequencing of the hearts after treatment was performed to identify the mechanisms of anti-PD-1-induced cardiac dysfunction.

Project description:SARS-CoV2 infection leads to cardiac injury and dysfunction in 20-30% of hospitalized patients and higher rates of mortality in patients with pre-existing cardiovascular disease. Inflammatory factors released as part of the 'cytokine storm' are thought to play a critical role in cardiac dysfunction in severe COVID-19 patients. Here we use human cardiac organoid technology combined with high sensitivity phosphoproteomics and single nuclei RNA sequencing to identify inflammatory targets inducing cardiac dysfunction. This new pipeline allowed rapid progress and identification of putative therapeutics. We identify a novel interferon-gamma driven BRD4 (bromodomain protein 4)-fibrosis/iNOS axis as a key intracellular mediator of inflammation-induced cardiac dysfunction. This axis is therapeutically targetable using BRD4 inhibitors, which promoted full recovery of function in human cardiac organoids and prevented severe inflammation and death in a cytokine-storm mouse model. The BRD inhibitor INCB054329 was the most efficacious, and is a prime candidate for drug repurposing to attenuate cardiac dysfunction and improve COVID-19 mortality in humans.

Project description:Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a severe, non-ischemic heart disease, which ultimately results in heart failure (HF). Pathological genetic variants in LMNA cause DCM, which currently lacks specific treatment. Perturbing candidates related to dysregulated pathways have shown to ameliorate LMNA DCM, but their long-term efficacy as potential therapeutic targets is unknown. Here, we evaluated 14 potential candidates including Lmna gene products, key signaling pathways, calcium handling, proliferation regulators and Lamin interacting proteins, in a cardiac-specific Lmna DCM model. The candidates with improved cardiac function were further assessed through survival analysis. After comparing cardiac function, marker gene expression, Tgfβ signaling pathway activation, fibrosis, inflammation, proliferation, and DNA damage, we uncovered that restored cardiac function significantly correlated with suppression of HF/fibrosis marker expression and cardiac fibrosis in Lmna DCM. Interestingly, Lamin C or Sun1 shRNA administration achieved consistent, prolonged survival which highly correlated with reduced heart inflammation and DNA damage. In addition to Sun1 shRNA, perturbing the interaction between the nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton via the KASH domain of Nesprin1 also effectively suppressed Lmna DCM. In contrast, Lamin A supplementation did not rescue long term survival and may impart a detrimental cardiotoxicity risk. Furthermore, transcriptome profiling was used to compare the differences between Lamin A and Lamin C treatment. Mechanistically, we identified that this lapse was attributed to a dose-dependent toxicity of Lamin A, which was independent of its maturation. This study highlights the potential for advancing Lamin C and Sun1 as therapeutic targets for the treatment of LMNA DCM.
