Project description:In response to pathological stress such as congenital heart disease and heart valvular disease, cardiomyocytes (CMs) generally increased the content of DNA and the number of nuclear. This process named CM polyploidization and multi-nucleation, result in the presence of multi-nucleated polyploid CM. However, the significance of multi-nucleated polyploid CM (M*Pc CM) for heart disease remains enigmatic. We speculated that the process of CM polyploidization and multinucleation may be an adaptative response, which may help CM function recovery and survive the stress condition. We sought to determine the mechanism of enhanced mitophagy in M*Pc CMs during hypoxia adaptation.

Project description:Noncompaction cardiomyopathy is a common congenital cardiomyopathy associated with a deficiency of ventricular cardiomyocytes and impaired pump function. The genetic basis and underlying mechanisms of this disorder remain elusive. Polyploidization is an intrinsic feature of mammalian cardiomyocytes, which occurs shortly after birth and is accompanied by cardiomyocyte cell cycle arrest. We show that genetic deletion of the RNA binding protein with multiple splicing (Rbpms) in mice results in premature onset of cardiomyocyte polyploidization (binucleation) and consequent noncompaction cardiomyopathy. A similar blockade to cytokinesis occurs in human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes with RBPMS gene deletion. Paired-end RNA sequencing analysis revealed that Rbpms plays an essential role in RNA splicing and mediates isoform switching from the short to the long form of Pdlim5, a heart-specific LIM domain protein that connects the sarcomere with various signaling proteins during heart development. The loss of Rbpms leads to abnormal accumulation of short Pdlim5 isoforms that disrupt cardiomyocyte cytokinesis. Our results link premature cardiomyocyte binucleation to noncompaction cardiomyopathy and highlight the central role of Rbpms in this process.

Project description:Specialized adult somatic cells, such as cardiomyocytes (CMs), are highly differentiated with poor renewal capacity, an integral reason underlying organ failure in disease and aging. Among the least renewable cells in the human body, CMs renew approximately 1% annually. Consistent with poor CM turnover, heart failure is the leading cause of death. Here, we show that an active version of the Hippo pathway effector YAP, termed YAP5SA, partially reprograms adult mouse CMs to a more fetal and proliferative state. One week after induction, 19% of CMs that enter S-phase do so twice, CM number increases by 40%, and YAP5SA lineage CMs couple to pre-existing CMs. Genomic studies showed that YAP5SA increases chromatin accessibility and expression of fetal genes, partially reprogramming long-lived somatic cells in vivo to a primitive, fetal-like, and proliferative state.

Project description:Contrary to adult mammals, zebrafish are able to regenerate their heart after cardiac injury. This regenerative response relies, in part, on the endogenous ability of cardiomyocytes (CMs) to dedifferentiate and proliferate to replenish the lost muscle. However, CM heterogeneity and population dynamics during development and regeneration remain poorly understood. Through comparative transcriptomic analyses of the developing and adult zebrafish heart, we identified tnnc2 and tnni4b.3 expression as markers for CMs at early and late developmental stages, respectively. Using newly developed reporter lines for these genes, we investigated their expression dynamics during development and regeneration, and observed interesting expression patterns. tnnc2 reporter lines label most CMs at embryonic stages, and this labeling declines rapidly during larval stages; in adult hearts expression is only detectable in a subset of CMs. Conversely, expression of a tnni4b.3 reporter is initially visible in outer curvature CMs at larval stages, and it is subsequently present in a vast majority of the CMs in adult hearts. Interestingly, we find that the adult CMs labeled by the embryonic reporter display higher levels of Tg(tp1:EGFP) expression, which indicates active Notch signaling. To further characterize this CM population, we performed transcriptomic analysis and found that it expresses genes encoding components of the Notch signaling pathway as well as markers of immature CMs. Moreover, during heart regeneration, proliferating CMs in the injured area activate the embryonic CM reporter. Overall, our findings provide further evidence of cardiomyocyte heterogeneity in the adult zebrafish heart.

Project description:Background: We had shown that cardiomyocytes (CMs) were more efficiently differentiated from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) when the hiPSCs were reprogrammed from cardiac fibroblasts rather than dermal fibroblasts or blood mononuclear cells. Here, we continued to investigate the relationship between somatic-cell lineage and hiPSC-CM production by comparing the yield and functional properties of CMs differentiated from iPSCs reprogrammed from human atrial or ventricular cardiac fibroblasts (AiPSC or ViPSC, respectively). Methods: Atrial and ventricular heart tissues were obtained from the same patient, reprogrammed into AiPSCs or ViPSCs, and then differentiated into CMs (AiPSC-CMs or ViPSC-CMs, respectively) via established protocols. Results: The time-course of expression for pluripotency genes (OCT4, NANOG, and SOX2), the early mesodermal marker Brachyury, the cardiac mesodermal markers MESP1 and Gata4, and the cardiovascular progenitor-cell transcription factor NKX2.5 were broadly similar in AiPSC-CMs and ViPSC-CMs during the differentiation protocol. Flow-cytometry analyses of cardiac troponin T expression also indicated that purity of the two differentiated hiPSC-CM populations (AiPSC-CMs: 88.23±4.69%, ViPSC-CMs: 90.25±4.99%) was equivalent. While the field-potential durations were significantly longer in ViPSC-CMs than in AiPSC-CMs, measurements of action potential duration, beat period, spike amplitude, conduction velocity, and peak calcium-transient amplitude did not differ significantly between the two hiPSC-CM populations. Yet, our cardiac-origin iPSC-CM showed higher ADP and conduction velocity than previously reported iPSC-CM derived from non-cardiac tissues. Transcriptomic data comparing iPSC and iPSC-CMs showed similar gene expression profiles between AiPSC-CMs and ViPSC-CMs with significant differences when compared to iPSC-CM derived from other tissues. This analysis also pointed to several genes involved in electrophysiology processes to be responsible for the physiological differences observed between cardiac and non-cardiac-derived cardiomyocytes. ¬ Conclusions: AiPSC and ViPSC were differentiated into CMs with equal efficiency. Detected differences in electrophysiological properties, calcium handling activity, and transcription profiles between cardiac and non-cardiac derived cardiomyocytes demonstrated that 1) tissue of origin matters to generate a better-featured iPSC-CMs, 2) the sublocation within the cardiac tissue has marginal effects on the differentiation process.

Project description:We report the application of bioChIP-seq, bulk RNA-seq, Hi-C, and Massively parallel reporter assays (MPRAs) to characterize the p300-bound regulatory regions in murine cardiomyocytes (CMs). By obtaining ChIP-seq data of coactivator p300 from seven developmental stages of mouse CMs, we defined the dynamic p300 enhancers from embryonic CMs to adult CMs. We then validated the activity of dynamic p300 enhancers with AAV9-based MPRAs, we found dynamic p300 enhancers show dynamic activity from postnatal day 0 (P0) CMs to 4-week-old CMs. In addition, MRPA results suggest nuclear receptor motifs are required for the activity of some p300 late enhancers. With Hi-C data of E12.5, P0 and adult CMs, we identified chromatin structure changes such as chromatin loops, compartment switch, and new TAD boundaries are associated with dynamic p300 binding. This study provides data source of CM-selective p300 enhancers, chromatin 3D structure and gene expression during CM development and maturation.

Project description:To identify the potential microRNAs (miRNAs) involved in the regulation of cardiomyocyte (CM) proliferation during homeostasis and injury, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) in mouse cardiac ventricles was performed on postnatal day 1, 7, and 28 (P1, P7, and P28). Significant upregulation of MiR-128 was found in P7 hearts as compared to P1. To further specify the effect of miR-128 in the heart, RNA-Seq was performed in control mice (Ctrl) and miR-128 overexpression mice (miR-128OE) on P7. These data provide novel insights into the mechanisms by which adult CMs exit the cell cycle arrest and is fundamental for therapeutic manipulation to stimulate endogenous CM proliferate in cardiac regeneration.
