Project description:infarct size and subsequent deterioration in function. The identification of factors that enhance cardiac repair by the restoration of the vascular network is, therefore, of great significance. Here, we show that the transcription factor Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 2 (ZEB2) is increased in stressed cardiomyocytes and induces a cardioprotective cross-talk between cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells to enhance angiogenesis after ischemia. Single-cell sequencing indicates ZEB2 to be enriched in injured cardiomyocytes. Cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of ZEB2 results in impaired cardiac contractility and infarct healing post-myocardial infarction (post-MI), while cardiomyocyte-specific ZEB2 overexpression improves cardiomyocyte survival and cardiac function. We identified Thymosin 4 (TMSB4) and Prothymosin (PTMA) as main paracrine factors released from cardiomyocytes to stimulate angiogenesis by enhancing endothelial cell migration, and whose regulation is validated in our in vivo models. Therapeutic delivery of ZEB2 to cardiomyocytes in the infarcted heart induces the expression of TMSB4 and PTMA, which enhances angiogenesis and prevents cardiac dysfunction. These findings reveal ZEB2 as a beneficial factor during ischemic injury, which may hold promise for the identification of new therapies.

The regulatory role of ZEB2 in ABC formation

Project description:To elucidate the direct targets of ZEB2 in ABCs, we performed high-throughput sequencing of regulome by ATAC-seq, CUT & Tag, and CUT & RUN, leading to the identification the accessible sites with ZEB2 binding. Among the genes differentially expressed by Zeb2 deficiency, we found 33 candidate target genes of ZEB2, with 22 repressed and 11 activated by ZEB2. The critical transcription factor Mef2b, essential for GC development, was repressed by ZEB2. This direct regulation was mapped to a conserved region about 20kb downstream of Mef2b's exon I TSS, enriched with enhancer-associated features in both human and mouse.

Gene expression profile (RNAseq) in atrophic gastrocnemius muscle of wild type, ZEB1 and ZEB2 knock out mice

Project description:Purpose: Characterize the gene expression profile of gastrocnemius muscle in wild type, ZEB1 and ZEB2 knock out mice subjected to 36 hours of fasting Methods: RNA sequencing of RNA from total gastrocnemius muscle after 36h of fasting from the three genotypes used in this study: ZEB1-control, ZEB1-KO, ZEB2-control, ZEB2-KO. Males and females were used from the four genotype (ZEB1flx/flx, ZEB1flx/flx;HSACre, ZEB2flx/flx, ZEB2flx/flx;HSACre). Results: Knockout of ZEB1 or ZEB2 results in differential gene expression in atrophic gastrocnemius muscle Conclusions: Comparison of wild type, ZEB1 and ZEB2 KO muscles displayed differential gene expression profiles after fasting
