Gene expression profile of STIM1 deficiency for cardiac remodeling in response to pressure overload by transverse aortic constriction (TAC)

ABSTRACT: STIM1 is a Ca2+ sensor of intracellular Ca2+ stores and essentially activates the Ca2+ entry channels of the plasma membrane. STIM1 is predicted to activate transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels and Orai channels, and has a critical role in promoting the development of cardiac hypertrophy. Gene array experiments were performed to analyze the effects of STIM1 deficiency using total RNA from the left ventricles of WT sham, WT TAC, STIM1KO sham and STIM1KO TAC 4 weeks after the operation.

Project description:Accurate and comprehensive de novo transcriptome profiling in heart is a central issue to better understand cardiac physiology and diseases. Although significant progress has been made in genome-wide profiling for quantitative changes in cardiac gene expression, current knowledge offers limited insights to the total complexity in cardiac transcriptome at individual exon level. To develop more robust bioinformatic approaches to analyze high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data, with the focus on the investigation of transcriptome complexity at individual exon and transcript levels. In addition to overall gene expression analysis, the methods developed in this study were used to analyze RNA-Seq data with respect to individual transcript isoforms, novel spliced exons, novel alternative terminal exons, novel transcript clusters (i.e., novel genes) and long non-coding RNA genes. We applied these approaches to RNA-Seq data obtained from mouse hearts following pressure-overload induced by trans-aortic constriction. Based on experimental validations, analyses of the features of the identified exons/transcripts, and expression analyses including previously published RNA-Seq data, we demonstrate that the methods are highly effective in detecting and quantifying individual exons and transcripts. Novel insights inferred from the examined aspects of the cardiac transcriptome open ways to further experimental investigations. Our work provided a comprehensive set of methods to analyze mouse cardiac transcriptome complexity at individual exon and transcript levels. Applications of the methods may infer important new insights to gene regulation in normal and disease hearts in terms of exon utilization and potential involvement of novel components of cardiac transcriptome. Left ventricular tissues were collected from C57BL/6 mice after 1 week (hypertrophy stage, HY) and 8 weeks post trans-aortic constriction (TAC) procedure (heart failure stage, HF), respectively, and their corresponding Sham controls (Sham-HY, Sham-HF). To conduct RNA-Seq analysis, total RNAs from six TAC and Sham-operated mice at the HY stage and four TAC and corresponding Sham mice at the HF stage were obtained.
