Project description:Bicuspid aortic valve is well known as a risk factor of dilation of ascending aorta. But the mechanisms of dialation are unknown. Morever, patients with bicuspid aortic valve tend to be aortic valve disease at younger age. After aortic valve surgery, if ascending aorta is dilated, the patient must be performed re-operation. For that reason, surgery for aortic root or ascending aorta is recommended to patient with bicuspid aortic valve with dilated ascending aorta. We thought that abnormality of cell cycle of the structure protein participated in ascending aorta dilation of patient with bicuspid aortic valve. We resected the wall of the ascending aota from patient undergoing aortic valve replacement for aortic valve stenosis during operation, and performed immunohistochemical staining for akt. Anti Akt antibodys were stained much on aortic media with bicuspoed aortic valve. Akt is a protein that is involved in mTOR / PI3K, and modulate the cell differenciation and proliferation. Further, the same samples were analyzed using a microarray method. On bicuspid aortic valve patients, the expression of TSC2 is reduced, and GβL is increased. TSC2 inhibit this pathway, and MLST8 activate this pathway. In the ascending aorta of BAV patients, PI3K / mTOR system is considered to be activated. When this pathway is activated, cell proliferation and cytodifferentiation are promoted abnormally,

Project description:Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiovascular disease in general population and is frequently associated with the development of thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA). There is no effective strategy to intervene with TAA progression due to an incomplete understanding of the pathogenesis. In this study, protein analyses of human aortic tissues showed the insufficient expression of NOTCH1 and impaired mitochondrial dynamics in BAV-TAA. To verify it, we constructed aorta-on-a-chip to replicate the rhythmic tensile on human aorta, on which human aortic smooth muscle cells (HAoSMCs) endured a microenvironment of biomimetic strain unattainable in animal models. HAoSMCs with NOTCH1-knockdown exhibited reduced contractile phenotype and were accompanied by attenuated mitochondrial fusion. Furthermore, we identified that mitochondrial fusion activators (leflunomide and teriflunomide) or mitochondrial fission inhibitor (Mdivi-1) rescued the mitochondrial dysfunction in HAoSMCs from BAV-TAA patients. These findings suggest that impaired mitochondrial dynamics could be a potential therapeutic target for BAV-TAA.

Project description:We report transcriptional profiles of aortic valve tissue from calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) and normal control (non-CAVD). We collected the aortic valve tissues from five patients with CAVD who underwent aortic valve replacement due to severe aortic valve stenosis. Aortic valve samples from patients with non-calcified aortic valve resection due to heart transplantation (recipient heart) or aortic dissection were collected as the control (non-CAVD). The inclusion criteria for CAVD group were as follows: 50-75 years old; undergoing aortic valve replacement due to severe AVS with significantly valvular calcification. The inclusion criteria for non-CAVD group were as follows: non-calcified aortic valve resection due to heart transplantation (recipient heart) or aortic dissection. For each sample, total RNA was extracted, a cDNA library was generated, and an Illumina NovaSeq 6000 was used to sequence each sample. Stringtie software was used to count the fragment within each gene, and TMM algorithm was used for normalization. Differential expression analysis was performed using R package edgeR. Differentially expressed RNAs with |log2(FC)| value >1, q value [false discovery rate (FDR) adjusted P-value] <0.05, and one group’s mean fragments per kilobase of exon per million reads mapped (FPKM) >1, were assigned as differentially-expressed genes (DEGs).

Project description:Valve remodeling is a complex process involving extracellular matrix organization, development of trilaminar structures, and physical elongation of valve leaflets. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms regulating valve remodeling and their roles in congenital valve disorders remain poorly understood. Semilunar valves and atrioventricular valves from healthy and age-matched human fetal hearts with pulmonary stenosis (PS) were collected. Single-Cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) was performed to determine the transcriptomic landscape of multiple valvular cell subtypes in valve remodeling and disease. Spatial localization of newly-identified cell subtypes was determined via immunofluorescence and RNA in situ hybridization. The molecular mechanisms mediating valve development was investigated utilizing primary human fetal valve interstitial cells (VICs) and endothelial cells (VECs). scRNA-seq analysis of healthy human fetal valves identified a novel APOE+ elastin-producing VIC subtype (Elastin-VIC) spatially located underneath VECs sensing the unidirectional flow. Knockdown of APOE in fetal VICs resulted in significant elastogenesis defects. In pulmonary valve with PS, we observed decreased expression of APOE and other genes regulating elastogenesis such as EMILIN1 and LOXL1, as well as elastin fragmentation. These findings suggested the crucial role of APOE in regulating elastogenesis during valve remodeling. Furthermore, cell-cell interaction analysis revealed that JAG1 from unidirectional VECs activates NOTCH signaling in Elastin-VICs through NOTCH3. In vitro Jag1 treatment in VICs increased the expression of elastogenesis-related genes and enhanced contractile functions with related gene expression. This was accompanied by activation of NOTCH signaling and elastogenesis observed in VICs co-cultured with VECs in the presence of unidirectional flow. Notably, we found that the JAG1-NOTCH3 signaling pair was drastically reduced in the PS valves. Lastly, we demonstrated that APOE is indispensable for JAG1-induced NOTCH activation in VICs, reinforcing the presence of a synergistic intrinsic and external regulatory network involving APOE and NOTCH signaling that is responsible for regulating elastogenesis during human valve remodeling. scRNA-seq analysis of human fetal valves identified a novel Elastin-VIC subpopulation, and revealed mechanism of intrinsic APOE and external NOTCH signaling from VECs sensing unidirectional flow in regulating elastogenesis during valve remodeling. These mechanisms may contribute to the pathogenesis of elastic malformation in congenital valve disease.

Project description:Located at the junction of left ventricle and ascending aorta, aortic root is a central cardiovascular structure consisting of aortic valve and coronary ostium that are essential for systemic and coronary circulation, respectively. Malformations of aortic valve and coronary ostium are common birth defects and may occur together in human patients, leading to complex complications including aortic valve stenosis, myocardial ischemia, heart failure and sudden cardiac death. Despite of their physiological and clinical significances, the developmental and molecular mechanisms by which coordinate the formation of aortic valve and coronary ostium remain poorly understood. Here we report that SOX17 (SRY-box 17) is an essential transcription factor required for the maturation of aortic root, as well as the patterning of aortic valve and coronary ostium. We show in mouse that deletion of Sox17 in the aortic root endothelium results in defective aortic valve with underdeveloped non-coronary leaflet (NCL) or bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) without NCL. The valve defects are accompanied by misplaced left coronary ostium that reduces coronary blood flow, leading to myocardial hypoxia and death of embryos. Mechanistically, deletion of Sox17 decreases the expression of Pdgfb (Platelet derived growth factor, B polypeptide) in the aortic root endothelium and the PDGF growth signaling in the NCL mesenchyme and aortic root smooth muscle, both of which are derived from the second heart field (SHF) cardiomyocyte precursors. Furthermore, the deletion upregulates the expression of Ctgf (Connective tissue growth factor) and the extracellular matrix (ECM) genes, whereas downregulates the vascular smooth muscle genes, in the forming aortic root. Together, these findings support a developmental disease mechanism in which delayed growth and maturation of aortic root, due to lack of SOX17-PDGF/CTGF signaling, contributes to BAV and CAAs, two common congenital cardiovascular defects.

Project description:Calcific Aortic Valve Disease (CAVD) is a common heart valve condition, often characterized by severe narrowing of the aortic valve. It lacks pharmaceutical treatments and typically requires aortic valve replacement surgery, imposing a significant burden on healthcare resources.This study reports the expression profile of circRNAs in the aortic valve tissues of CAVD patients and a normal control group (non-CAVD). We collected aortic valve tissue samples from three CAVD patients who underwent aortic valve replacement surgery due to severe aortic valve stenosis, as well as aortic valve samples from non-CAVD patients who either received heart transplant surgery (recipient heart) or had their aortic valve removed due to aortic dissection. Overall, our research reveals the significant role of circRNAs in the progression of CAVD. CircRNAs, a class of circular non-coding RNA molecules, are actively studied for their functions and regulatory mechanisms within cells. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying CAVD, particularly the potential involvement of circRNAs in this disease.
