Project description:Akt is a serine/threonine protein kinase that is activated by a variety of growth factors or cytokines in a PI3-kinase dependent manner. Using a conditional transgenic system in which Akt signaling can be turned on or off in the adult heart, we have recently demonstrated that short-term Akt activation induces a ‘physiological’ form of cardiac hypertrophy with enhanced coronary angiogenesis and maintained contractility. Here we tested the hypothesis that induction of physiological hypertrophy by short-term Akt activation might improve contractile function in failing hearts. When Akt signaling was transiently activated in murine hearts with impaired contractility induced by pressure overload or adriamycin treatment, contractile dysfunction was attenuated in both cases. Importantly, improvement of contractility was observed before the development of cardiac hypertrophy, indicating that Akt improves contractile dysfunction independently of its growth-promoting effects. To gain mechanistic insights into Akt-mediated positive inotropic effects, transcriptional profiles in the heart were determined in a pressure overload-induced heart failure model. Biological network analysis of differentially expressed transcripts revealed significant alterations in the expression of genes associated with cell death, and these alterations were reversed by short-term Akt activation. Thus, short-term Akt activation improves contractile dysfunction in failing hearts. This beneficial effect of Akt on contractility is hypertrophy-independent and may be mediated in part by inhibition of cell death associated with heart failure.

Project description:Purpose: To identify the differential TFIIB bindingl patterns during postnatal cardiac growth, pressure-induced cardiac hypertrophy and adult mouse hearts Methods: Hearts were extracted from 1-2day old C57 mice, from mice subjecetd to Transaortic coarctation or adult mice. The hearts were sent to Active Motif for TFIIB- ChIP-Seq. Results: In accordance with previosly published data (Sayed D, et. al. JBC, 2013 Jan 25;288(4):2546-58) with genome wide polII and H3K9ac status during cardiac hypertrophy (GSE50637), Denovo TFIIB recruitment was restricted to speclaized genes with cardiac hypertrophy. Hearts were extracted from 1-2day old C57 mice, from mice subjecetd to Transaortic coarctation or adult mice. The hearts were sent to Active Motif for TFIIB- ChIP-Seq.

Project description:Cardiac hypertrophy has been well-characterized at the level of transcription. During cardiac hypertrophy, genes normally expressed primarily during fetal heart development are re-expressed, and this fetal gene program is believed to be a critical component of the hypertrophic process. Recently, alternative splicing of mRNA transcripts has been shown to be temporally regulated during heart development, leading us to consider whether fetal patterns of splicing also reappear during hypertrophy.We hypothesized that patterns of alternative splicing occurring during heart development are recapitulated during cardiac hypertrophy. Here we present a whole-transcriptome study of isoform expression during pressure-overload cardiac hypertrophy induced by 10 days of transverse aortic constriction (TAC) in rats and in developing fetal rat hearts compared to sham-operated adult rat hearts, using high-throughput sequencing of poly(A) tail mRNA.

Project description:As ambush-hunting predators that consume large prey after long intervals of fasting, Burmese pythons evolved with unique adaptations for regulating organ structure and function. Among these is cardiac hypertrophy that develops within three days following a meal (1, 2), which we previously showed was initiated by circulating growth factors (3). Post-prandial cardiac hypertrophy in pythons also rapidly regresses with subsequent fasting (2); however, the molecular mechanisms that regulate the dynamic cardiac remodeling in pythons during digestion are largely unknown. In this study, we employed a multi-omics approach coupled with targeted molecular analyses to examine remodeling of the python ventricular transcriptome and proteome throughout digestion. We found that forkhead box protein O1 (FoxO1) signaling was suppressed prior to hypertrophy development and then activated with regression, which coincided with decreased and then increased expression, respectively, of FoxO1 transcriptional targets involved in protein degradation. To define the molecular mechanistic role of FoxO1 in hypertrophy regression, we used cultured mammalian cardiomyocytes treated with post-fed python plasma. Hypertrophy regression both in pythons and in vitro coincided with activation of FoxO1-dependent autophagy; however, introduction of a FoxO1-specific inhibitor prevented both regression of cell size and autophagy activation. Finally, to determine if FoxO1 activation could induce regression, we generated an adenovirus expressing a constitutively active FoxO1. FoxO1 activation was sufficient to prevent and reverse post-fed plasma-induced hypertrophy, which was partially prevented by autophagy inhibition. Our results indicate that modulation of FoxO1 activity contributes to the dynamic ventricular remodeling in post-prandial Burmese pythons.

Project description:Purpose: Cardiac hypertrophy is a well-known major risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Dysregulation of intracellular Ca2+ is involved in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy. However, the precise mechanism underlying cardiac hypertrophy remains elusive. Here, we investigated whether pressure-overload induced hypertrophy can be induced by destabilization of cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) through calmodulin (CaM) dissociation and subsequent Ca2+ leakage, and whether it can be genetically rescued by enhancing the binding affinity of CaM to RyR2. Methods: To examine the role of CaM-RyR2 complex in the development of pressure-overload induced cardiac hypertrophy, whole transcriptome analysis using RNA-seq analysis in the hearts from WT and homozygous RyR2V3599K/V3599K (V3599K) mice with or without transverse aortic constriction (TAC) was performed to elucidate the RyR2 signaling pathway in the heart. Results: Gene expression increased in WT (+TAC) hearts compared to WT (-TAC) hearts; however, this increase was not observed in V3599K (+TAC) hearts. Conclusions: Enhanced CaM binding to RyR2 decreased expression of hypertrophy-related genes.

Project description:Cardiac hypertrophy is an important and independent risk factor for the development of cardiac myopathy that may lead to heart failure. Cardiac hypertrophy manifests as an enlargement of the individual cardiomyocytes, which impairs the function of the heart. The only way to cure end-stage cardiac myopathy is by heart transplantation, a possibility limited due to lack of donor hearts. Therefore, early diagnosis of cardiac hypertrophy is needed in order to be able to initiate interventions that may prevent further progression of the disease. The mechanisms underlying the development of cardiac hypertrophy are yet not well understood. To increase the knowledge about mechanisms and regulatory pathways involved in the progression of cardiac hypertrophy, we have developed a human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-based in vitro model of cardiac hypertrophy and performed extensive characterization of the model using multi-omics analyses. In a series of experiments, hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes were stimulated with Endothelin-1 for 8, 24, 48 and 72 hours and their transcriptome and secreted proteome were analyzed thoroughly. The transcriptomic data show many enriched canonical pathways related to cardiac hypertrophy already at the earliest time point, e.g., cardiac hypertrophy signaling, actin cytoskeleton signaling and PI3K/AKT signaling. Cluster analysis of the differentially expressed genes showed that there are numerous clusters of genes that are dysregulated over the time period of 8 to 72h. An integrated transcriptome-secretome analysis enabled the identification of multimodal biomarkers of high relevance for monitoring early cardiac hypertrophy progression. Taken together, the results from this study demonstrate that our in vitro model displays a hypertrophic response on transcriptomic- and secreted proteomic level. The results also provide novel insight into the underlying mechanisms of cardiac hypertrophy and novel putative early cardiac hypertrophy biomarkers have been identified that will be further validated to assess their clinical relevance.

Project description:To investigate molecular mechanisms involved in the development of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure, a tetracycline-regulated transgenic system to conditionally switch a constitutively-active form of the Akt1 protein kinase on or off in the adult heart was developed. Short-term activation (2 weeks) of Akt1 resulted in completely reversible hypertrophy with maintained contractility. In contrast, chronic Akt1 activation (6 weeks) induced extensive cardiac hypertrophy, severe contractile dysfunction, and massive interstitial fibrosis. The focus of this study was to create a transcript expression profile of the heart as it undergoes reversible Akt1-mediated hypertrophy and during the transition from compensated hypertrophy to heart failure. Heart tissue was analyzed before transgene induction, 2 weeks after transgene induction, 2 weeks of transgene induction followed by 2 days of repression, 6 weeks after transgene induction and 6 weeks of transgene induction followed by 2 weeks of repression. Acute over expression of Akt1 (2 weeks) leads to changes in the expression of 826 transcripts relative to non-induced hearts, whereas chronic induction (6 weeks) led to changes in the expression of 1611, of which 65% represented transcripts that were regulated during the pathological phase of heart growth. Another set of genes identified were uniquely regulated during heart regression but not growth, indicating that non-overlapping transcription programs participate in the processes of cardiac hypertrophy and atrophy. These data define the gene regulatory programs downstream of Akt that control heart size and contribute to the transition from compensatory hypertrophy to heart failure. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression data from DTG-positive mouse hearts were examined before the induction of the transgene Akt1 (time point 1), 2 weeks after the induction of the transgene Akt1(time point 2), 2 weeks after the induction of the transgene Akt1 and 2 days after the repression of the transgene Akt1 (time point 3), 6 weeks after the induction of the transgene Akt1(time point 4) and 6 weeks after the induction of the transgene Akt1 and 2 weeks after the repression of the transgene Akt1 (time point 5). N = 3 to 4 sets of independent hybridizations from individual mice were performed for each time point.

Project description:Muscle ring finger-1 (MuRF1) is a muscle-specific protein implicated in the regulation of cardiac myocyte size and contractility. MuRF2, a closely related family member, redundantly interacts with protein substrates, and hetero-dimerizes with MuRF1. Mice lacking either MuRF1 or MuRF2 are phenotypically normal whereas mice lacking both proteins develop a spontaneous cardiac and skeletal muscle hypertrophy indicating cooperative control of muscle mass by MuRF1 and MuRF2. In order to identify the role that MuRF1 plays in regulating cardiac hypertrophy in vivo, we created transgenic mice expressing increased amounts of cardiac MuRF1. Adult MuRF1 transgenic (Tg+) hearts exhibited a non-progressive thinning of the left ventricular wall and a concomitant decrease in cardiac function. Experimental induction of cardiac hypertrophy by trans-aortic constriction (TAC) induced rapid failure of MuRF1 Tg+ hearts. Microarray analysis identified that the levels of genes associated with metabolism (and in particular mitochondrial processes) were significantly altered in MuRF1 Tg+ hearts, both at baseline and during the development of cardiac hypertrophy. Surprisingly, ATP levels in MuRF1 Tg+ mice did not differ from wild type mice despite the depressed contractility following TAC. To explain this discrepancy between the ongoing heart failure and maintained ATP levels in MuRF1 Tg+ hearts, we compared the level and activity of creatine kinase (CK) between wild type and MuRF1 Tg+ hearts. Although mCK and CK-M/B protein levels were unaffected in MuRF1 Tg+ hearts, total CK activity was significantly inhibited. We conclude that MuRF1’s inhibition of CK activity leads to increased susceptibility to heart failure following TAC, demonstrating for the first time that MuRF1 regulates cardiac energetics in vivo. Keywords: Genetic modification, physiological manipulation. Three-condition experiment, MuRF1 Tg+ vs. WT mice. Biological replicates: 4 WT baseline, 3 MuRF1 Tg+ baseline, cardiac overpressure hypertrophy induced by trans-aortic banding at 1 week (3 WT, 3 MurF Tg) and 4 weeks (3 WT, 3 MurF Tg), hearts harvested.
