Dissecting Non-Coding GWAS Loci with High-Resolution 3D Chromatin Interactions Reveals Causal Genes with Relevance to Heart Failure [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: Heart failure is caused in part by cardiac remodeling processes that include the death of cardiac myocytes and their replacement by cardiac fibroblasts. We hypothesized that these two cell types may harbor epigenetic contexts in which heart disease-associated non-coding SNPs perturb gene expression relevant to disease. Accordingly, we generated high-resolution Hi-C data layered with functional genomic information to annotate and link putative distal regulatory elements in heart disease-associated loci to gene promoters. Our analysis identified several target genes with established roles in cardiac fibrosis and/or heart disease (GJA1, TBC1D32, CXCL12, IL6R, and FURIN). Perturb-seq in cardiac fibroblasts after knocking out putative regulatory elements confirmed regulatory relationships involving GJA1, CXCL12, and FURIN, in addition to changes in transcriptomic signatures associated with fibroblasts in heart failure. Our results demonstrate how integrative multi-omic approaches can delineate pathophysiologically relevant regulatory circuits that connect protein-coding genes to non-coding genetic variants associated with disease.

Defining the cardiac fibroblast secretome in the post-MI heart in vivo

Project description:Cardiac fibrosis is a common feature of ischemic heart disease and cardiac fibroblasts (CF) are key players in cardiac remodeling of the injured heart after myocardial infarction (MI). Fibrosis increases myocardial stiffness, thereby impairing cardiac function, which ultimately progresses to end-stage heart failure. Little is known, however, on the secretome of CF and cell-to-cell communication of CF is only incompletely understood. Here, we in vivo labeled secreted proteins by expressing TurboID under control of the POSTN promotor in cardiac fibroblasts of mouse with myocardial infarction, enriched biotinylated proteins and analyzed them using LC-MS.

RNA-seq of Pluripotent stem cell derived cardiac cells

Project description:Cardiac fibroblasts (CFBs) support heart function by secreting extracellular matrix and paracrine factors, respond to stress associated with injury and disease, and therefore are an increasingly important therapeutic target to treat heart disease. Here, we profile how developmental lineage of human pluripotent stem cell-derived CFBs, epicardial (EpiC-FB) and second heart field (SHF-FB) impacts their transcriptome. We compared this to human pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes, primary fetal cardiac fibroblasts, primary adult left ventricular fibroblasts, and primary adult dermal fibroblasts.

ETS2 and Mesp1 trans-differentiate human dermal fibroblasts into cardiac progenitors

Project description:We explored the role of mammalian ETS1/2 and Mesp homologues of cardiogenic transcription factors of Ciona intestinalis, to convert primary human dermal fibroblasts into cardiac progenitors. ETS1/2 and Mesp homologues of cardiogenic transcription factors of Ciona intestinalis, to convert primary human dermal fibroblasts into cardiac progenitors. Here we show murine Ets2 has an obligatory role for directing cardiac progenitors during cardiopoesis in embryonic stem cells. ETS2 converted fibroblasts into KDR/Flk1+ replicative cells but, like the purported cardiac master regulatory gene Mesp1, could not by itself generate cardiac progenitors de novo from fibroblasts. Co-expression of both Ets2 and Mesp1, however, successfully reprogrammed differentiated fibroblasts into cardiac progenitors, as shown by the de novo appearance of core cardiac transcription factors, gap junction proteins, sarcomeric proteins, electrical activity and contractility. ETS2 and Mesp1 sit at the pinnacle of the cardiopoesis regulatory hierarchy and are well suited for treating human heart disease. Co-expression of both Ets2 and Mesp1, reprogrammed differentiated fibroblasts into cardiac progenitors

Antagonistic role of MBNL1 and LIN28 promotes specific alteration of pre-miR-1 processing and is associated with heart defects in DM

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common muscular dystrophy in adults, is caused by the expression of expanded CUG repeats, which sequester the MBNL1 RNA binding protein. Cardiac involvement, which is characterized by conduction defects and arrhythmias, is the second cause of death of DM1 patients. Down-expression of miR-1 in mice leads to cardiac conduction disturbances and to arrhythmias. Here, we show that miR-1 expression is decreased in DM1 hearts, due to a mis-regulation of the processing of pre-miR-1. MBNL1 binds to UGC motifs located within the pre-miR-1 loop and competes binding of LIN28, which promotes uridylation and blocks pre-miR-1 processing. Finally and consistent with a down-regulation of miR-1, known, GJA1, and novel, CACNA1C, targets of miR-1 are increased in DM1 hearts. CACNA1C and GJA1 encode the main calcium and gap junction channels in heart, respectively, and their mis-regulation may contribute to the heart arrythmias and conduction defects observed in DM1 patients. Total RNA of 3 control and 3 CDM1 primary culture of muscle cells differentiated 10 days into myotubes was extracted using Trizol and analyzed by Agilent microarray.

Transcription profiling of mouse naive T cells isolated from CD4+ CD62L+ CD44- T cells were isolated from Fur flox/flox and CD4 cre Fur flox/flox mice reveals T cell-expressed proprotein convertase furin is essential for maintenance of peripheral tolerance

Project description:Furin is a proprotein convertase induced in activated T cells, reported to processes the anti-inflammatory cytokine TGFb-1. Herein, we show that conditional deletion of furin in T cells allowed for normal T cell development but impaired the function of regulatory T cells and effector cells, which produced less TGFb-1. Furin-deficient Treg cells, were less protective in a T cell transfer colitis model and failed to induce Foxp3 in normal T cells. Furin-deficient effector cells were inherently overly active and were resistant to suppressive activity of wild-type Tregs. Thus, our results indicate that furin is indispensable in maintaining peripheral tolerance, which is due, at least in part, to its nonredundant, essential function in regulating TGFb-1 production. Targeting furin has emerged as a strategy in malignant and infectious disease. The current work suggests that inhibiting furin might activate immune responses, but may result in a breakdown in peripheral tolerance. Experiment Overall Design: Naive CD4+ CD62L+ CD44- T cells were isolated from Fur flox/flox and CD4 cre Fur flox/flox mice. Replicated samples were achieved for wild type and knockout conditions.

Highly efficient SARS-CoV-2 infection of human cardiomyocytes: spike protein-mediated cell fusion and its inhibition

Project description:Severe cardiovascular complications can occur in coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) patients. Cardiac damage is attributed mostly to the aberrant host response to acute respiratory infection. However, direct infection of cardiac tissue by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) also occurs. We examined here the cardiac tropism of SARS-CoV-2 in spontaneously beating human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs).These cardiomyocytes express the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor but not the transmembrane protease serine 2 (TMPRSS2) that mediates spike protein cleavage in the lungs. Nevertheless, SARS-CoV-2 infection of hiPSC-CMs was prolific: viral transcripts accounted for about 88% of total mRNA. In the cytoplasm of infected hiPSC33 CMs, smooth walled exocytic vesicles contained numerous 65-90 nm particles with canonical ribonucleocapsid structures, and virus-like particles with knob-like spikes covered the cell surface. To better understand how SARS-CoV-2 spreads in hiPSC-CMs we engineered an expression vector coding for the spike protein with a monomeric emerald-green fluorescent protein fused to its cytoplasmic tail (S-mEm). Proteolytic processing of S-mEm and the parental spike were equivalent. Live cell imaging tracked spread of S-mEm cell-to-cell and documented formation of syncytia. A cell-permeable, peptide-based molecule that blocks the catalytic site of furin and furin-like proteases abolished cell fusion. A spike mutant with the single amino acid change R682S that disrupts the multibasic furin cleavage motif was fusion inactive. Thus, SARS42 CoV-2 replicates efficiently in hiPSC-CMs and furin and/or furin-like-protease activation of its spike protein is required for fusion-based cytopathology. This hiPSC-CM platform enables target-based drug discovery in cardiac COVID-19.
