Cardiomyocyte-specific Deletion of Med13 and Med13L Results in Dysregulated Gene Expression and Lethal Heart Failure

ABSTRACT: Background: Previous studies have linked mutations in the Mediator complex, specifically Mediator 13 (Med13) and Mediator 13-like (Med13L), with both congenital heart defects and cardiovascular diseases. Med13 and Med13L are mutually exclusive paralogs within the kinase submodule of the Mediator complex that have been shown to have partially redundant functions in embryonic development and transcription, but their combined roles have not been investigated in the adult heart. We investigated the critical yet redundant roles of Med13 and Med13L in adult murine cardiomyocytes for basal cardiac function. Methods: We generated an inducible Med13 and Med13L cardiomyocyte-specific knockout mouse model to investigate Med13 and Med13L regulation of cardiac function and transcription. We performed RNAseq on mice four weeks after the start of tamoxifen to identify changes in gene expression. Differentially expressed genes were compared across cardiac knockouts of Med13/13L, Med13, Med12, Med1, and Med30 elucidating similar mechanisms of cardiac dysfunction. Results: Med13/13L knockout resulted in decreased cardiac function leading to lethal heart failure in a median timeframe of 6 weeks from the start of tamoxifen. There is significant gene dysregulation after Med13/13L knockout with similar gene dysregulation of fibrotic pathways and calcium handling across Mediator cardiac knockouts. Conclusions: Med13 and Med13L function partially redundantly within the heart to maintain basal cardiac function and transcription, as well as redundancies within cardiac phenotypes related to mediator complex disruptions.

Gene expression in the embryonic Lrrc10 knockout heart

Project description:LRRC10 is a heart-specific gene required for proper cardiac function. The effects of Lrrc10 deletion on gene expression in the embryonic mouse heart was investigated. Pregnant heterozygous Lrrc10 knockout mice (Lrrc10+/-) mated to male heterozygous knockouts (Lrrc10+/-), housed in 12 hour light:12 dark, ad lib feeding and drinking conditions, were sacrificed at embryonic day 15.5 (E15.5) and embryonic hearts were dissected for cardiac gene expression analysis. A two color, reference design experiment in which heart RNA from 2 Lrrc10 homozygous knockout embryos (Lrrc10-/-) were pooled and labeled with Cy5 and hybridized according to Agilent protocols against a reference pool of RNA madeup from respective tissue taken from littermate E15.5 wildtype (Lrrc10+/+) hearts and labeled with Cy3.

MED13cTg heart ventricles and epididymal fat

Project description:The heart requires a continuous supply of energy but has little capacity for energy storage and thus relies on exogenous metabolic sources. We previously showed that cardiac MED13 modulates systemic energy homeostasis in mice. Here we sought to define the extra-cardiac tissue(s) that respond to cardiac MED13 signaling. We show that cardiac over-expression of MED13 in transgenic (MED13cTg) mice confers a lean phenotype that is associated with increased lipid uptake, beta-oxidation and mitochondrial content in white adipose tissue (WAT) and liver. Cardiac expression of MED13 decreases metabolic gene expression and metabolite levels in heart and liver but enhances them in WAT. Although exhibiting increased energy expenditure in the fed state, MED13cTg mice metabolically adapt to fasting. Furthermore, MED13cTg hearts oxidize fuel that is readily available, rendering them more efficient in the fed state. Parabiosis experiments in which circulations of wild-type and MED13cTg mice are joined, reveal that circulating factor(s) in MED13cTg mice promote enhanced metabolism and leanness. These findings demonstrate that MED13 acts within the heart to promote systemic energy expenditure in extra-cardiac energy depots and point to an unexplored metabolic communication system between the heart and other tissues.

Muscleblind-like compound knockout models for myotonic dystrophy

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is a multi-systemic disease that severely impacts cardiac and skeletal muscle functions as well as the central nervous system. DM is unusual because it is RNA-mediated disease due to the expression of C(C)UG expansion RNAs that inhibit the activities of the muscleblind-like (MBNL) proteins. In mice, studies using Mbnl1 and Mbnl2 single knockouts have revealed that Mbnl1 plays a predominant role in skeletal and heart muscle alternative splicing regulation while Mbnl2 performs an analogous splicing function in the brain. However, Mbnl single knockout models fail to recapitulate the full-range of adult-onset DM muscle symptoms. Here, we report that Mbnl1; Mbnl2 double knockouts are embryonic lethal while Mbnl1-/-; Mbnl2+/- mice, which express no Mbnl1 and reduced levels of Mbnl2, are viable but develop cardinal features of adult-onset DM cardiac and skeletal muscle disease including reduced lifespan, heart conduction block, severe myotonia and progressive skeletal muscle weakness. Mbnl2 protein levels are elevated in both Mbnl1-/- and Mbnl1-/-; Mbnl2+/- knockouts where Mbnl2 targets Mbnl1-regulated exons. These findings support the MBNL loss-of-function model for DM and provide novel Mbnl compound knockout models to investigate the molecular pathways disrupted by RNA-mediated disease. Mbnl2 protein-RNA interactions were assessed in 4-month-old WT and Mbnl1-/- quadriceps muscles in triplicates by HITS-CLIP.

RNA-sequencing of unstressed and pressure-overloaded C57 mouse hearts with single or combined ablation of PKCdelta and PKCepsilon

Project description:Combinatorial ablation of the major cardiac-expressed novel protein kinase C isoforms, PKCdelta and PKCepsilon, in murine cadiac myocytes unmasked functionally redundant growth-limiting effects of these kinases in hemodynamically stressed adult hearts and during normal embryonic cardiac development, mediated in part by shared transcriptional de-repression of ERK and periostin signaling. 14 cardiac polyA+-RNA profiles from unstressed, 12 week-old C57BL/6J-background mice (4 wild-type, 3 postnatal cardiac PKCdelta ablation, 3 germline PKCepsilon knockout, 4 combined knockouts) and 15 profiles generated 4 weeks after TAC induction (4 wild-type, 3 PKCdelta, 4 PKCepsilon, 4 combined knockout) were generated on Illumina HiSeq 2000 instruments.

Transcription profiling of mouse Fog2flox/delta; MHCaCre vs. Fog2flox/deltaFog2 to investigate Fog2 regulation of gene expression in the adult heart

Project description:MHCaCre induced knockout of Fog2flox. Aberrant transcriptional regulation contributes to the pathogenesis of both congenital and adult forms of heart disease. While the transcriptional regulator FOG2 is known to be essential for heart morphogenesis and coronary development, its tissue specific function has not been previously investigated. Additionally, little is known about the role of FOG2 in the adult heart. Here we use spatiotemporally regulated inactivation of Fog2 to delineate its function both in embryo and adult heart. Early cardiomyocyte-restricted loss of Fog2 recapitulated the cardiac and coronary defects of the Fog2 germline knockouts. Later cardiomyocyte-restricted loss of Fog2 (Fog2MC) did not result in defects in cardiac structure or coronary vessel formation. However, Fog2MC adult mice had severely depressed ventricular function and died at 8-14 weeks. Fog2MC adult hearts displayed a paucity of coronary vessels. This was associated with myocardial hypoxia, increased cardiomyocyte apoptosis, and cardiac fibrosis. Induced inactivation of Fog2 in adult heart resulted in similar phenotype, as did ablation of FOG2 interaction with the transcription factor GATA4. Loss of FOG2 or FOG2-GATA4 interaction altered expression of a panel of angiogenesis-related genes. Collectively, our data indicated that FOG2 regulates adult heart function and coronary angiogenesis. Experiment Overall Design: Fog2flox/delta; MHCaCre (3) compared to Fog2flox/delta; no Cre (3). One heart per sample.

Effect of over expression of MED13 IDR in human osteosarcoma U2OS cell line

Project description:The eukaryotic transcriptional Mediator comprises a large Core (cMED) and a dissociable CDK8 kinase module (CKM). cMED recruits RNA polymerase II (Pol II) and promotes pre-initiation complex formation in a manner repressed by the CKM through mechanisms presently unknown. Herein we report cryo-electron microscopy structures of the complete human Mediator and its CKM. Combined with biochemical and functional analyses, these structures provide a mechanistic framework to explain the basis for CKM-mediated repression of cMED function. The CKM binds to cMED at multiple sites through both MED12 and a large intrinsically disordered region (IDR) in MED13. The MED13 IDR blocks Pol II/MED26 recruitment onto cMED by direct occlusion of their corresponding binding sites, leading to functional repression of cMED-dependent transcription. Notably, the CKM is anchored to the cMED Hook, positioning CDK8 downstream and proximal to the transcription start site, which sheds new light on its stimulatory function in post-initiation events.
