Genetic Activation and Suppression of the Canonical WNT Pathway in Cardiac Myocyte-Specific Dsp Deficient Mouse Model of Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

ABSTRACT: The cWNT pathway has been implicated in the pathogenesis of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), including in cardiac dysfunction, apoptosis, and fibro-adipogenesis, the latter being the histological hallmark of ACM. The study was designed to determine effects of genetic activation or suppression of cWNT in a mouse model of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. The data show that activation of the cWNT in ACM deleterious whereas it suppression is benefiial.

The arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy-specific coding and non-coding transcriptome in human cardiac stromal cells

Project description:Background: Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is a genetic autosomal disease characterized by abnormal cell-cell adhesion, cardiomyocyte death, progressive fibro-adipose replacement of the myocardium, arrhythmias and sudden death. Several different cell types contribute to the pathogenesis of ACM, including, as recently described, cardiac stromal cells (CStCs). In the present study, we aim to identify ACM-specific expression profiles of human CStCs derived from endomyocardial biopsies of ACM patients and healthy individuals employing TaqMan Low Density Arrays for miRNA expression profiling, and high throughput sequencing for gene expression quantification. Results: We identified 5 miRNAs and 272 genes as significantly differentially expressed. Both the differentially expressed genes as well as the target genes of the ACM-specific miRNAs were found to be enriched in cell adhesion related biological processes. Functional similarity and protein interaction based network analyses performed on the identified deregulated genes, miRNA targets and known ACM-causative genes revealed clusters of highly related genes involved in cell adhesion, extracellular matrix organization, lipid transport and ephrin receptor signaling. Conclusions: We determined for the first time the coding and non-coding transcriptome characteristic of ACM cardiac stromal cells, finding evidence for a potential contribution of miRNAs to ACM pathogenesis or phenotype maintenance. Besides known pathways, we identified also deregulation of genes encoding ephrin receptors and ephrins, thus suggesting a potential involvement of Eph-ephrin signaling in CStCs from ACM hearts.

Desmosomal protein degradation as underlying causes of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy

Project description:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited progressive cardiomyopathy. The pathophysiological events are well understood, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain undefined. Here we use patient originated hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes bearing a pathogenic PKP2 mutation (PKP2 c.2013delC/WT), a corresponding knock-in mouse model carrying the equivalent murine mutation (Pkp2 c.1755delA/WT), and human explanted ACM hearts, to identify disease driving mechanisms. Pkp2 c.1755delA/WT mice over time displayed signs of ACM as observed by cardiac dysfunction and pathological remodeling. At a molecular level these mice showed a reduction in desmosomal and adherens junction proteins as well as disarray of the intercalated discs in areas of active fibrotic remodeling. These findings were validated in the mutant hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes as well as human explanted ACM hearts, indicating both the conservation and relevance of protein degradation in the pathogenesis of the disease. Led by proteomics data, we demonstrated that the ubiquitin-proteasome system was responsible for the observed desmosomal protein degradation. These findings show the importance of appropriate disease modeling and provide means for therapeutic intervention for the prevention of ACM disease progression.

Pathophysiology and therapeutics of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy 5

Project description:Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inherited cardiac disease characterized by fibro-fatty replacement of the myocardium that causes heart failure and sudden cardiac death. The most aggressive subtype of ARVC is ARVC type 5 (ARVC5), caused by a p.S358L mutation in TMEM43. The function and localization of TMEM43 and the mechanism by which the p.S358L mutation causes the disease, are unknown.

Desmosomal protein degradation accompanied by desmosomal and adherens junctions protein disarray as underlying causes of PKP2 driven arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy

Project description:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited progressive cardiomyopathy. The pathophysiological events are well understood, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain undefined. Here, we created a novel research platform comprising of patient originated hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes bearing a pathological PKP2 mutation (PKP2 c.2013delC/WT), a novel knock-in murine model carrying the equivalent mutation (Pkp2 c.1755delA/WT), and human explanted ACM hearts, to identify disease driving mechanisms. Pkp2 c.1755delA/WT mice displayed reduced desmosomal and adherens junctions protein levels and protein disarray of the intercalated discs in areas of active fibrotic remodeling. These findings were validated in hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes and human explanted ACM hearts. Led by proteomics data, we demonstrated that the ubiquitin-proteasome system was responsible for the observed desmosomal protein degradation. The research platform presented here provides a strong scientific basis to identify bona fide pathological processes and will aid in the development of potential therapies for the prevention of ACM disease progression.

Modeling incomplete penetrance in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy by human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes

Project description:Human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) are commonly used to model arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), a heritable cardiac disease characterized by severe ventricular arrhythmias, fibrofatty myocardial replacement and progressive ventricular dysfunction. Although ACM is inherited as an autosomal dominant disease, incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are extremely common, resulting in different clinical manifestations. Here, we propose hiPSC-CMs as a powerful in vitro model to study incomplete penetrance in ACM. Six hiPSC lines were generated from blood samples of three ACM patients carrying a heterozygous deletion of exon 4 in the PKP2 gene, two asymptomatic (ASY) carriers of the same mutation and one healthy control (CTR), all belonging to the same family. Whole exome sequencing was performed in all family members and hiPSC-CMs were examined by ddPCR, western blot, Wes™ immunoassay system, patch clamp, immunofluorescence and RNASeq. Our results show molecular and functional differences between ACM and ASY hiPSC_x0002_CMs, including a higher amount of mutated PKP2 mRNA, a lower expression of the connexin-43 protein, a lower overall density of sodium current, a higher intracellular lipid accumulation and sarcomere disorganization in ACM compared to ASY hiPSC_x0002_CMs. Differentially expressed genes were also found, supporting a predisposition for a fatty phenotype in ACM hiPSC-CMs. These data indicate that hiPSC-CMs are a suitable model to study incomplete penetrance in ACM.

Spatial transcriptomics unveils ZBTB11 as a regulator of cardiomyocyte degeneration in cardiomyopathy

Project description:Aims Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited cardiac disorder that is characterized by progressive fibro-fatty replacement of the myocardium, arrhythmias, and sudden death. While myocardial degeneration and fibro-fatty replacement occurs in specific locations, the underlying molecular changes remain poorly characterized. Here we aim to delineate local changes in gene expression to help identify new genes or pathways that are relevant for specific remodelling processes occurring during ACM. Methods and Results Using Tomo-Seq, a genome-wide transcriptional profiling with high spatial resolution, we created a transmural epicardial to endocardial gene expression atlas of an explanted ACM heart to gain molecular insights into disease-driving processes. This enabled us to link gene expression profiles to the different regional remodelling responses and allowed us to identify genes that are potentially relevant for disease progression. In doing we revealed BTB (broad-complex, tramtrack, bric-à-brac) domain containing 11 (ZBTB11) to be specifically enriched at sites of active fibrofatty replacement of myocardium. Immunohistochemistry indicated ZBTB11 to be enriched in cardiomyocytes flanking fibrofatty areas, which could be confirmed in multiple cardiomyopathy patients. Forced overexpression of ZBTB11 in iPS-derived cardiomyocytes showed ZBTB11 to function as a potent inducer of cardiomyocyte atrophy. Conclusion By combining spatial transcriptomics with classical histological approaches we identified gene expression changes underlying local remodelling responses in ACM. In doing so we found ZBTB11 to function as a relevant driver of cardiomyocyte atrophy. These data show the power of Tomo-Seq to unveil new molecular mechanisms and indicate ZBTB11 as a potential new target for cardiomyopathy.
