Expression data from Rat ventricles 3 days/28 days/42 days after STZ injection

ABSTRACT: Cardiomyopathy in type 1 diabetic patients is characterized by early onset diastolic and late onset systolic dysfunction. The mechanism underlying development of diastolic and systolic dysfunction in diabetes remains unknown. We used microarrays to detail the ventricle gene expression changes that underly development of diabetic cardiomyopathy. We identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during this process. Keywords: disease state analysis, time course

Project description:Full Title: Transition from Compensated Hypertrophy to Systolic Heart Failure in the Spontaneously Hypertensive Rat: Structure, Function, and Transcript Analysis Gene expression changes and left ventricular remodeling associated with the transition to systolic heart failure (HF) were determined in the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR). By combining transcriptomics of left ventricles from six SHR with HF with changes in function and structure we aimed to better understand the molecular events underlying the onset of systolic HF compared to six age-matched, SHR with compensated hypertrophy. Left ventricle (LV) ejection fraction was depressed (82Â±4 to 52Â±3 %) in compensated vs. failing animals.Â Systolic blood pressure decreased and LV end-diastolic and systolic volume increased with HF.Â Failing SHR hearts also demonstrated increases in left and right ventricular mass relative to non-failing SHRs.Â Â LV papillary muscle force development and shortening velocity decreased, Î²-adrenergic responsiveness was depressed, myocardial stiffness and myocardial fibrosis increased with HF relative to non-failing animals. Initial micro-array analysis revealed that 1,431 transcripts were differentially expressed with HF compared to non-failing SHR (p<0.05). Of the identified transcripts, lipopolysaccharide binding protein, the most highly expressed transcript with HF, was negatively correlated to myocardial force while elevated expression of the collagen cross-linking enzyme lysyl oxidase correlated positively with muscle stiffness. Besides these individual transcripts, gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) identified multiple enriched pathways with HF, most prominent of the altered signaling pathways involved TGF-Î² and insulin signaling. GESA analysis additionally identified altered gene sets involving inflammation, oxidative stress, cell degradation and cell death, among others (all p<0.01). In contrast to diastolic HF where few transcripts are reported to be altered, our data indicate multiple genes and pathways involved in a variety of biological processes characterize the onset of systolic HF, consistent with many functional and structural changes present in the failing hypertensive heart.
