Project description:We reported the RNAseq analyses of lungs tissues in neonatal SD rats with or without reduced pulmonary blood flow. Lung hypoperfution was induced by causing the supravalvular pulmonary stenosis through performing pulmonary artery banding surgery within 24 hours postnatally (P1). RNAseq analyses of the upper lobe of the right lung tissues was generated at P7 from 5 sham-operated rats and 4 pulmonary artery banding rats (1 rat dead before sample collection). The results revealed that there were 2666 differentially expressed genes between PAB and sham group at P7, among which 1255 were upregulated and 1411 were downregulated.

Project description:We demonstrated that, four weeks after the pulmonary artery banding (PAB) operation, rats could be divided into two groups: an F+ group in which the fibrotic area occupied more than 6.5% of the whole area of the heart tissues, and an F- group in which the fibrotic area occupied less than 6.5% of this area. We used microarrays to elucidate the fibrosis initiating master factor using heart samples obtained from PAB or sham-operated rats.

Project description:Heart failure is among the leading causes of death globally. Ventricular failure progresses through a hypertrophic compensatory phase followed by failure of the ventricle function through rapid decompensation. In order to unravel right heart specific mechanisms of disease, rat animal models were established that (i) reflect the slowly progressive mode of compensation / decompensation and (ii) allow comparative analyses of left versus right heart failure in the same experimental set up. Non-restrictive clips around the pulmonary artery (pulmonary artery banding, PAB) or the aorta (aortic banding, AOB) were surgically implanted into weanling rats. Upon animal growth the clips become increasingly constrictive, leading to a compensatory, hypertrophic state at around 6 weeks and heart failure at 21 (PAB) or 24 weeks (AOB). Disease progression was monitored functionally and by sonography. Differential gene expression analysis was performed for all three treatment groups (sham, AOB, PAB), at both time points (compensation, decompensation) and for both ventricles.

Project description:Right ventricular failure (RVF) due to pressure load is a major cause of death in congenital heart diseases and pulmonary hypertension. The mechanisms of RVF are yet unknown. Research is hampered by the lack of a good RVF model. Our aim was to study the pathophysiology of RVF in a rat model of chronic pressure load. Wistar rats (n=19) were subjected to pulmonary artery banding (PAB, 1.1mm) or sham surgery (CON). All PAB rats developed RVF (reduced cardiac output, RV stroke volume, TAPSE, increased end diastolic pressure, all p<0.05 vs. CON) but clinical symptoms of RVF (inactivity, ruffled fur, dyspnea, ascites) necessitating termination ensued in a subset (5/12) of rats (RVF+) after a period of 52±5 days. Rats with RVF+ had significantly worse RV function and pericardial effusion and liver congestion compared to RVF rats without symptoms (all p<0.05), despite similar pressure load (p=NS RVF vs. RVF+). Chronic pulmonary artery banding invariably leads to RV failure in rats, and a subset transitions to advanced clinical RVF. RVF is characterized by enhanced contractility, progressive diastolic dysfunction and derangement of energy metabolism, thus improving diastolic function and targeting RV metabolism may be the keys to treating RVF.

Project description:Background: Current mammalian model for heart regeneration research is limited in apex amputation or myocardium infarction, both of which are controversy. Moreover, RNAseq demonstrated there were a very limited set of differential expressed genes between sham and operation heart in the myocardium infarction model. Here we investigated whether pressure overload in the right ventricle(RV), a common phenomenon in congenital heart disease children, could be a better animal model for heart regeneration study when consider cardiomyocyte(CM) proliferation as the most important index. Methods and results: Pressure overload was induced by pulmonary artery banding (PAB) on day1 and confirmed by echocardiography and hemodynamic measurements at postnatal day 7(P7). RNAseq analyses of purified RVCM at P7 from PAB and sham-operated rats revealed there were 5469 differential expressed genes between these two groups. GO and KEGG analysis showed that these genes mainly mediated mitosis and cell division. Cell proliferation assay indicates a continuous over-proliferation of RVCM after PAB, in particular for P3. In addition, there were ~2 times-fold increase of Ki67/Phh3 -positive CM in human overload RV compared to non-overload RV. Other features about this model included CM hypotrophy and no fibrosis.. Conclusions: Pressure overload profoundly promotes RVCM proliferation in the neonatal stage both in rats and human beings, activated a regeneration-specific gene program, and may offer a better alternative animal model for heart regeneration research..

Project description:Purpose: While women are more susceptible to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) than men, their right ventricular (RV) function is better preserved. Experimental studies have identified estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) as a likely mediator for estrogen protection in the RV. However, the role of ERα in preserving RV function and remodeling during pressure overload remains poorly understood. We hypothesized that loss of functional ERα removes female protection from adverse remodeling and is permissive for development of a maladapted RV phenotype. Methods: Male and female rats with a loss-of-function mutation in ERα (ERαMut) and wildtype (WT) littermates, while at their surgical plane of anesthesia, underwent RV pressure overload by pulmonary artery banding (PAB) or a sham surgery. Results: At 10 weeks post-PAB, WT and ERαMut demonstrated RV hypertrophy. Single beat analysis and Tau Weiss calculation from RV pressure waveforms (collected during surgical plane of anesthesia) demonstrated uncoupling of the RV-pulmonary vascular circuit and diastolic dysfunction, respectively, in female, but not male, ERαMut PAB rats. Similarly, female, but not male, ERαMut exhibited increased RV fibrosis, comprised primarily of stiffer collagen type I, suggesting RV stiffening by collagen type I accumulation. RNA-sequencing in female WT and ERαMut RV revealed Kallikrein related-peptidase 10 (Klk10) and Jun Proto-Oncogene (Jun) as possible mediators of female RV protection during PAB. Conclusions: ERα in females is protective against RV-pulmonary vascular uncoupling, diastolic dysfunction, and fibrosis in response to pressure overload. ERα appears to be dispensable for RV adaptation in males. ERα may be a mediator of superior RV adaptation in female patients with PAH.

Project description:The molecular mechanisms of progressive right heart failure are incompletely understood. We systematically examined transcriptomic changes occurring over months in isolated cardiomyocytes or whole heart tissues from failing right and left ventricles in rat models of pulmonary artery (PAB) or aortic banding (AOB). Detailed bioinformatics analyses resulted in the identification of gene signatures, protein, and transcription factor networks specific to ventricles and compensated or decompensated disease states. Proteomic and RNA-FISH analyses confirmed PAB-mediated regulation of key genes (including proenkephalin) and revealed spatially heterogeneous mRNA expression in the heart. Intersection of rat PAB-specific gene sets with transcriptome data sets from human patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension led to the identification of more than 50 genes whose expression levels correlated with the severity of right heart disease, including multiple matrix-regulating and secreted factors. These data define a conserved, differentially regulated genetic network associated with right heart failure in rats and humans

Project description:Background: Right ventricular (RV) and left ventricular (LV) myocardium differ in their response to pressure-overload hypertrophy (POH). In this report we use microarray and proteomic analyses to identify pathways modulated by LV-, and RV-POH in the immature heart. Methods: Newborn New Zealand White rabbits underwent banding of the descending thoracic aorta (LV-POH; n=6). RV-POH was achieved by banding the pulmonary artery (n=6). Sham–control animals (SC; n=6 each) were sham-manipulated. Following 4 (LV-POH) and 6 weeks (RV-POH) recovery, the hearts were removed and matched sample RNA and proteins were isolated for microarray and proteomic analysis. Results: There was no difference in body weight in RV-, LV-POH vs. SC but there was a significant increase vs. SC in RV (3.2±0.8g vs. 1.2±0.3g; P<0.01) and LV weight (7.08±0.6g vs. 4.02±0.2g; P<0.01). Fractional area change (RV-POH) and shortening fraction (LV-POH) decreased significantly (23±6 vs. 47±6 and 21±4 vs.44±2, respectively, P<0.01). Microarray analysis demonstrated that LV-POH enriched pathways for oxidative phosphorylation, mitochondria energy pathways, actin, ILK, hypoxia, calcium and protein kinase-A signalling. RV-POH enriched pathways for cardiac oxidative phosphorylation. Proteomic analysis revealed 19 proteins were uniquely expressed in LV-POH vs. SC. Functional annotation clustering analysis indicated significant enrichment for the mitochondrion, cellular macromolecular complex assembly and oxidative phosphorylation. RV-POH had 15 uniquely expressed proteins vs. SC. Functional annotation clustering analysis indicated significant enrichment in structural constituents of muscle, cardiac muscle tissue development and calcium handling. Conclusion: Our results identify unique transcript and protein expression profiles in LV, RV-POH and provide new insight into the biological basis of ventricular specific hypertrophy. 3 different conditions: PAB-RV vs. Sham-control RV, PAB-RV [test] vs. PAB-LV [control], AOB-LV vs. Sham-control LV.

Project description:Left heart disease (LHD) frequently causes lung vascular remodelling and pulmonary hypertension (PH). Yet, pharmacological treatment for PH in LHD is lacking and its pathophysiological basis remains obscure. We aimed to identify candidate mechanisms of PH in LHD and to test their relevance and therapeutic potential. In rats, LHD was induced by supracoronary aortic banding. Whole genome microarray analyses were performed, candidate genes were confirmed by RT-PCR and Western blots and functional relevance was tested in vivo by genetic and pharmacological strategies. In lungs of LHD rats, mast cell activation was the most prominently upregulated gene ontology cluster. Mast cell gene upregulation was confirmed at RNA and protein levels and remodelled vessels showed perivascular mast cell accumulations. In LHD rats treated with the mast cell stabiliser ketotifen, or in mast cell deficient Ws/Ws rats, PH and vascular remodelling were largely attenuated. Both strategies also reduced PH and vascular remodelling in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension, suggesting that the role of mast cells extends to noncardiogenic PH. In PH of different aetiologies, mast cells accumulate around pulmonary blood vessels and contribute to vascular remodelling and PH. Mast cells and mast cell-derived mediators may present promising targets for the treatment of PH. Whole rat genome microarray analyses were performed in lung homogenates of three rats with established PH following supracoronary aortic banding and in three sham-operated controls. Out of a total of 28,000 analysed genes, differential expression defined as 2-fold change with p<0.05 was evident for 120 genes. Of these, 76 were upregulated and 44 downregulated in aortic banding compared with control lungs gene. Enrichment analysis revealed regulation of mast cell specific genes - 13 out of 20 genes were significantly upregulated in aortic banding compared with control lungs. To test for a putative functional role of mast cells in lung vascular remodelling and PH in LHD, we applied a pharmacological approach by treatment of aortic banding rats with the mast cell stabiliser ketotifen. Microarray analysis then compared rats that were treated with untreated. In brief, congestive heart failure (CHF) was induced in juvenile rats by supracoronary aortic banding and rats were analyzed 9 weeks thereafter when they had established left heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and secondary pulmonary hypertension. Three heart failure rats were untreated, and 3 received the mast cell stabilizer ketotifen (1 mg/kg-1 bodyweight/day-1) with the drinking water. Sham rats underwent the same surgical procedure but without placement of a clip on the supracoronary aorta. Microarray analyses: Lungs from banded and control rats were excised and total RNA was extracted (Stratagene Absolutely RNA Miniprep Kit; Stratagene, La Jolla, USA). Three µg total RNA from three control and three banded rats each were processed according to the One-Cycle Target Labeling protocol (GeneChip Expression Analysis, Affymetrix, Santa Clara, USA). Before and after amplifications, the total RNA/complementary RNA concentrations were checked with NanoDrop ND-1000 (Thermo Scientific, Wilmington, USA) and quality was controlled (Experion electrophoresis station, BioRad; Hercules, USA). Samples were hybridized to GeneChip® Rat Genome 230 2.0 arrays (Affymetrix; Santa Clara, USA) containing 31,000 probe sets covering 28,000 rat genes.
