Project description:N-terminal-acetyltransferases including NAA10 catalyze N-terminal acetylation (Nt-acetylation), an evolutionarily conserved co- and post-translational modification. However, little is known about the role of Nt-acetylation in cardiac homeostasis. To gain insight into cardiac-dependent NAA10 function, we studied a novel NAA10 variant (p.R4S) segregating with QT-prolongation, cardiomyopathy and developmental delay in a large kindred. Here we show that the NAA10R4S variant reduced enzymatic activity, decreased expression levels of NAA10/NAA15 proteins, and destabilized the enzymatic complex NatA. In NAA10R4S/Y-iPSC-CMs, dysregulation of the late sodium and slow rectifying potassium currents caused severe repolarization abnormalities, consistent with clinical QT prolongation. Engineered heart tissues generated from NAA10R4S/Y-iPSC-CMs had significantly decreased contractile force and sarcomeric disorganization, consistent with the pedigree’s cardiomyopathic phenotype. Proteomic studies revealed dysregulation of metabolic pathways and cardiac structural proteins. We identified small molecule and genetic therapies that normalized the phenotype of NAA10R4S/Y-iPSC-CMs. Our study defines novel roles of Nt-acetylation in cardiac regulation and delineates mechanisms underlying QT prolongation, arrhythmia, and cardiomyopathy caused by NAA10 dysfunction.

Project description:Endocervical mucus changes play a key role in regulating fertility throughout the menstrual cycle and in response to hormonal contraceptives. Non-human primates (NHP) provide the most translational animal model for reproductive tract studies, as they have hormonally-regulated menstrual cycles and mucus changes, similar to women. We used TMT labelling and LC-LC/MS to compare the proteins found in the mucus of the rhesus macaque to the mucus of the human endocervix. We found 3,048 total proteins present in both rhesus mucus and human mucus, and of these, 57% showed a similar expression pattern. An even higher similarity occurred in the top 500 most prevalent proteins, with overlap in 341 (68%) proteins. Mucin MUC5B was the most highly expressed mucin protein (top 10 expressed proteins in both) but other key proteins related to mucus structure were present in both samples. We find that the mucus proteome of the endocervical mucus is highly conserved in NHP and women. This supports use of the NHP model system for studies of the endocervix and trials of novel fertility treatments targeting the cervix.

Project description:We used human iPSC-CMs generated from healthy individuals and performed RNA-sequencing after 7 days of trastuzumab treatment to examine the mechanism associated with contraction dysfunction in iPSC-CMs after trastuzumab treatment. Transcriptome analysis revealed the key role of an altered energy metabolism pathway for cardiomyocytes in the disease pathogenesis.

Project description:Many oncology drugs have been found to induce cardiotoxicity in a subset of patients, which significantly limits their clinical use and impedes the benefit of lifesaving anti-cancer treatments. Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) carry donor-specific genetic information and have been proposed for explore the inter-individual difference in oncology drug-induced cardiotoxicity. Herein, we evaluated the inter- and intra- individual variability of iPSC-CM-related assays and presented a practical approach for using donor-specific iPSC-CMs to predict personalized doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) prior to chemotherapy. Our findings demonstrated that donor-specific iPSC-CMs exhibited greater line-to-line variability than the intra-individual variability in impedance cytotoxicity and transcriptome assays. The variable and dose-dependent cytotoxic responses of iPSC-CMs resembled those observed in clinical practice, and largely replicated the reported mechanisms of DIC. By categorizing iPSC-CMs into DOX-resistant and DOX-sensitive cell lines based on their phenotypic reactions to DOX, we found that the sensitivity of donor-specific iPSC-CMs to DOX may predict in vivo DIC risk. Furthermore, we assessed the limitations of the model for identification of potential genetic/molecular biomarker and pinpointed a differentially expressed gene, DND microRNA-mediated repression inhibitor 1 (DND1), between the DOX-resistant and DOX-sensitive iPSC-CMs. We also discussed the selection of DOX dose and exposure duration for inter-individual variability of DIC assessment. Our results support the utility of donor-specific iPSC-CMs in assessing inter-individual difference and enabling personalized cardiotoxicity prediction. Further studies will encompass a large panel of donor-specific iPSC-CMs to investigate the role of the DND1 and known DIC genetic variants, and to identify potential novel molecular and genetic biomarkers for predicting DOX and other oncology drug-induced cardiotoxicity.

Project description:The immaturity of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) is a major limitation for their use in drug screening to identify pro-arrhythmogenic or cardiotoxic molecules. Here, we demonstrate an approach that combines lipid-enriched maturation medium with a high concentration of calcium, nanopatterning of culture surfaces and electrostimulation to generate iPSC-CMs with advanced electrophysiological, structural and metabolic phenotypes. Systematic testing reveals that electrostimulation is the key driver of enhanced mitochondrial development and metabolic maturation and improved electrophysiological properties of iPSC-CMs. Increased calcium concentration strongly promotes electrophysiological maturation, while nanopatterning primarily facilitates sarcomere organisation with minor effect on electrophysiological properties. Transcriptome analysis reveals that activation of HMCES and TFAM targets contributes to mitochondrial development, whereas downregulation of MAPK/PI3K and SRF targets is associated with iPSC-CM polyploidy. These findings provide mechanistic insights into iPSC-CM maturation, paving the way for pharmacological responses that more closely resemble those of adult CMs.

Project description:The generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) offers an unlimited source of patient-specific human cardiomyocytes. However, the use of iPSC-CM in vitro-models to guide the clinic selection of particular drugs for individual patients remains a vision. A major limitation represents the immature phenotype of iPSC-CMs, which alters their sensitivity towards physiological and pathophysiological stimuli, cardioactive drugs or toxic substances, in comparison to adult cardiomyocytes (CMs). In this study, we aim to generate iPSC-CMs with an advanced maturation state by combining the use of MM with the alignment of the cells on nanopatterned surfaces (NP) and induction of an increased contractile workload by electrical stimulation (ES). Under the combined influence of MM, NP and ES, iPSC-CMs develop a more complex cellular structure, increased mitochondrial content and enhanced electrophysiological properties. Furthermore, the response of iPSC-CMs matured under influence of MM, NP and ES to isoprenaline as well as verapamil differs to less mature iPSC-CMs cultured in B27-medium. Taken together, our results reveal that the combination of MM, NP and ES strongly improves the maturation state of iPSC-CMs and that this advanced maturation state critically affects the cell behavior in functional studies as well as response to cardioactive drugs.
