Project description:Tissue repair after myocardial infarction (MI) is guided by incompletely defined autocrine and paracrine-acting proteins. Deciphering these signals and their upstream triggers is essential when considering infarct healing as a therapeutic target. Searching for previously unknown growth factors involved in infarct repair, we performed a bioinformatic secretome analysis in cardiac endothelial cells and identified cysteine-rich with EGF-like domains 2 (CRELD2), an endoplasmic reticulum stress-inducible protein with poorly characterized function. CRELD2 was abundantly expressed and secreted in the heart after MI in mice and patients. Creld2-deficient mice and wild-type mice treated with a CRELD2-neutralizing antibody displayed impaired de novo microvessel formation in the infarct border zone and developed severe postinfarction heart failure. CRELD2 protein therapy, conversely, improved heart function after MI. Exposing human coronary artery endothelial cells to recombinant CRELD2 induced angiogenesis, associated with a distinct phosphoproteome signature. These findings identify CRELD2 as a novel angiogenic growth factor and unravel a link between endoplasmic reticulum stress and ischemic tissue repair.

Project description:infarct size and subsequent deterioration in function. The identification of factors that enhance cardiac repair by the restoration of the vascular network is, therefore, of great significance. Here, we show that the transcription factor Zinc finger E-box-binding homeobox 2 (ZEB2) is increased in stressed cardiomyocytes and induces a cardioprotective cross-talk between cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells to enhance angiogenesis after ischemia. Single-cell sequencing indicates ZEB2 to be enriched in injured cardiomyocytes. Cardiomyocyte-specific deletion of ZEB2 results in impaired cardiac contractility and infarct healing post-myocardial infarction (post-MI), while cardiomyocyte-specific ZEB2 overexpression improves cardiomyocyte survival and cardiac function. We identified Thymosin 4 (TMSB4) and Prothymosin (PTMA) as main paracrine factors released from cardiomyocytes to stimulate angiogenesis by enhancing endothelial cell migration, and whose regulation is validated in our in vivo models. Therapeutic delivery of ZEB2 to cardiomyocytes in the infarcted heart induces the expression of TMSB4 and PTMA, which enhances angiogenesis and prevents cardiac dysfunction. These findings reveal ZEB2 as a beneficial factor during ischemic injury, which may hold promise for the identification of new therapies.

Project description:Therapeutic angiogenesis represents a promising avenue to revascularize the ischemic heart. Its limited success is partly due to our poor understanding of the cardiac stroma, specifically mural cells, and their response to ischemic injury. Here, we combine single-cell and positional transcriptomics to assess the behaviour of mural cells within the healing heart. In response to myocardial infarction, mural cells adopt an altered state closely associated with the infarct and retain a distinct lineage from fibroblasts. This response is concurrent with vascular rarefaction and reduced coverage by mural cells. Positional transcriptomics reveal that the infarcted heart is governed by regional-dependent and temporally regulated programs. While the remote zone acts as an important source of pro-angiogenic signals, the infarct zone is accentuated by chronic activation of anti-angiogenic, pro-fibrotic, and inflammatory cues. Together, our work unveils the spatiotemporal programs underlying cardiac repair and establishes an association between vascular deterioration and mural cell dysfunction.

Project description:Endothelial cells were isolated from the infarct region (anteroapical wall distal to the coronary artery ligation site representing the infarct core and border zone) 3 days after sham or acute myocardial infarction (AMI) surgery. AMI was induced by 60 min coronary ligation followed by reperfusion. Endothelial cells were subjected to single cell RNA sequencing.

Project description:Ischemic heart failure after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. We recently reported that activation of a trans-valvular axial-flow pump in the LV and delaying myocardial reperfusion, known as Primary Unloading, limits infarct size by reducing LV wall stress and increasing expression of the cardioprotective cytokine, stromal derived factor 1 alpha (SDF1a). The mechanisms underlying the cardioprotective benefit and sustained effect of Primary Unloading remain poorly understood. We now tested the importance of delayed reperfusion, the functional significance of SDF1a, and the late-term impact on myocardial function and scar size associated with Primary Unloading. Adult male swine were subjected to Primary Reperfusion or Primary Unloading after 90 minutes of left anterior descending artery occlusion. Compared to Primary Reperfusion, 30 minutes of Primary Unloading was necessary and sufficient prior to reperfusion to limit infarct size. Primary Unloading was associated with a global shift in gene expression within the infarct zone favoring cardioprotection. Compared to Primary Reperfusion, Primary Unloading for 30 minutes preserved SDF1a protein levels without changing SDF1a mRNA levels within the infarct zone and further promoted a shift towards anti-apoptotic signaling within the infarct zone. Primary Unloading reduced activity levels of proteases known to degrade SDF1a and blocking the SDF1a receptor, CXCR4, attenuated the cardioprotective effect of Primary Unloading. Primary Unloading further reduced LV scar size, improved cardiac function, limited expression of markers associated with heart failure and maladaptive remodeling within the non-infarct zone 28 days after acute myocardial infarction. In conclusion, we introduce that Primary Unloading for 30 minutes before, not after reperfusion limits infarct size, increases SDF1a levels within the infarct zone, and results in a durable reduction in LV scar size, improved cardiac function, and limits markers of heart failure and maladaptive remodeling 28 days after AMI.

Project description:Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has significantly advanced the elucidation of developmental signaling mechanisms that are important for different cell lineage formation from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs). We report here the application of RNA-sequencing technology for transcriptome profile of human primary cardiac microvascular endothelial cells and hPSC-derived endocardial endothelial cells, and compare to those of other cell lineages including hPSCs, mesoderm, cardiomcyotyes as well as mouse cardiac microvascular and endocardial endothelial cells. Six cardiac endothelial cell samples from two different hPSC lines and one donor were performed in IIIumina HiSeq2500. The resulting sequence reads (about 20 million reads per sample) were mapped to human genome (hg19) using HISAT, and the RefSeq transcript levels (RPKMs) were quantified using the python script rpkmforgenes.py. Our RNA-seq data confirmed the stable expression of key endocardial endothelial cell markers including CDH5, vWF, PECAM1, NFATC1 and NPR3, and the gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) showed enrichment in angiogenesis and vasculature development. Hierarchical clustering of differentially expressed genes uncovered several as yet uncharacterized genes that may contribute to endocardial function. This study represents the first detailed analysis of endocardial-like endothelial cell transcriptomes generated by RNA-seq technology, providing insight into the mechanisms underlying the differentiation of hPSCs into endocardium.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Myocardial infarction (MI), one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide, remains a clinical challenge due to limitations in current therapeutic strategies. The cardiac vascular network, as the fundamental architecture sustaining myocardial function, delivers oxygen and nutrients with high precision to the heart tissue. However, the dynamic regulatory mechanisms governing this network post-MI remain incompletely elucidated. Notably, the pivotal role of cardiac endothelial cells in the pathophysiological progression of MI calls for further comprehensive investigation. METHODS: We examined alterations in Signal Peptide, CUB Domain And EGF Like Domain Containing 3 (SCUBE3) protein expression in the myocardium of MI-afflicted mice and human MI heart tissues. Utilizing genetically engineered mouse models in combination with diverse cellular and molecular biology techniques, we systematically dissected the functional role of SCUBE3 in MI and its underlying mechanisms in cardiac endothelial cell metabolism. RESULTS: Proteomic profiling of serum samples from MI patients demonstrated a significant elevation in SCUBE3 protein levels. Immunohistochemical assessment revealed markedly increased SCUBE3 expression localized predominantly within fibroblasts in the infarct zone of cardiac tissues from MI patients. Consistently, in a murine MI model, SCUBE3 expression was also upregulated and primarily distributed in fibroblasts within the infarcted myocardial regions. Employing inducible, fibroblast-specific SCUBE3 overexpression and knockout mouse models, we observed that SCUBE3 overexpression robustly enhanced post-MI angiogenesis, improved microcirculatory network integrity, and attenuated myocardial injury. In contrast, SCUBE3 ablation exacerbated infarct-induced cardiac damage. Subsequent protein tracking and mass spectrometry analyses demonstrated that SCUBE3 selectively binds to and activates vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1 (VEGFR1) on endothelial cells, thereby mediating downstream biological effects. Transcriptomic sequencing revealed that SCUBE3 significantly upregulates fatty acid metabolism–related pathways. Live-cell dynamic analysis further confirmed that SCUBE3 promotes fatty acid uptake and enhances the metabolic activity of endothelial cells. Metabolomic profiling indicated that SCUBE3 facilitates the conversion of unsaturated fatty acids into phosphosugars and nucleotides, supplying essential substrates and energy to support endothelial cell proliferation. In SCUBE3-overexpressing mice, endothelial cell–specific inducible VEGFR1 knockout completely abrogated SCUBE3-driven fatty acid metabolism and its associated cardioprotective effects. Moreover, beyond its role in angiogenesis SCUBE3 also markedly enhances cardiomyocyte regenerative capacity, highlighting its potential as a novel therapeutic target for myocardial repair. Conclusions: Our findings establish that fibroblast-derived SCUBE3 interacts with VEGFR1 on endothelial cells to promote fatty acid metabolism, thereby providing energy substrates necessary for endothelial proliferation. This study elucidates the critical function of the SCUBE3–VEGFR1 signaling axis in post-MI vascular regeneration through metabolic regulation, presenting a promising avenue for therapeutic intervention in cardiac repair.

Project description:MicroRNA expression profiling of human microvascular endothelial cells (HMVECs) treated with either vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) only or in combination with the natural angiogenesis inhibitor pigment epithelial-derived factor (PEDF). Originally we were interested in the microRNA-mediated regulation of angiogenesis by the endogenous anti-angiogenic PEDF. To identify the microRNAs involved in PEDF signaling in activated endothelial cells, we compared the levels of microRNAs in non-treated microvascular endothelial cells, cells treated with VEGF, and cells treated with a combination of VEGF and PEDF. After treatment, total RNA content was isolated and sent for analysis to LC Sciences, LLC. They performed expression profiling and completed statistical analysis, based on which we confirmed the regulation of one of the microRNAs, mir-27b. In the following experiments, we identified the targets of mir-27b relevant for angiogenesis and confirmed our findings in zebrafish and mouse models. The manuscript describes the key role of mir-27b in determination of the endothelial tip cell fate and venous differentiation by regulating Notch ligand Delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4) and Sprouty homologue 2 (Spry2). Three-condition experiment: untreated (control) HMVECs vs. VEGF-treated HMVECs vs. PEDF/VEGF-treated HMVECs.
