Project description:In this study we performed transcriptome analysis of cardiomyocytes (CMs) derived from two hiPSC lines of patients with V2264M and R1267Q mutations in FLNC gene. hiPSC cell line were obtained from patient’s PBMCs with FLNC mutation using CytoTune-iPS 2.0 Sendai Reprogramming Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Detailed information about iPSC line characterization can be found in hiPSCreg database: (FAMRCi011-A and FAMRCi009). Information about FAMRCi009 is earlier published DOI: 10.1016/j.scr.2021.102640.
Project description:In this study we performed transcriptome analysis of cardiomyocytes (CMs) derived from hiPSC line of patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) associated with a novel p.N989I (c.2966A>T) variant in MYPN gene. Detailed information about iPSC line characterization can be found in hiPSCreg database: FAMRCi015-A.
Project description:In order to investigate the changes of hiPSC-CMS transcriptome after alcohol treatment and whether losartan has an effect on the changes of hiPSC-CM transcriptome after alcohol treatment, RNAseq was performed on hiPSC-CMs treated with 100mM alcohol and 100mM alcohol co-treated with1uM losartan.
Project description:Analysis of the microRNA profile exression in hiPSC-CMs. Results provide important information of the miRNAs expressed in hiPSC-CMs under control conditions.
Project description:Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) are used to examine in vitro the effect of mutations in the cardiac sodium channel gene SCN5A, associated with cardiac arrhythmias. Postnatally SCN5A undergoes a fetal-to-adult isoform switch, but hiPSC-CMs in conventional 2-dimensional cultures are fetal-like. This impedes evaluation of mutations in the adult isoform. Here, we derived hiPSC-CMs from a patient carrying compound mutations in the adult SCN5A exon 6B and in exon 4 and generated isogenic corrected lines. In hiPSC-CM 2-dimensional culture, exon 6B mutation did not affect single-cell electrophysiology because of its limited expression. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated excision of the fetal exon 6A with did not promote adult SCN5A expression, rather it impaired the splicing. By maturing hiPSC-CMs in three-dimensional tri-cell type cardiac microtissues, SCN5A underwent isoform switch and revealed the functional effect of exon 6B mutation. Upregulation of the splicing factor MBNL1 in hiPSC-CMs either by culture in microtissues or by overexpression was sufficient to promote exon 6B inclusion. Our results support the ability to study developmentally regulated cardiac genes and postnatal cardiac arrhythmias using hiPSC cardiac cells.
Project description:To investigate HCM mutation-associated molecular details at the early stage of disease development, we performed bulk RNA-seq analysis at Day 15 of differentiation using RNA isolated from the isogenic control and mutant hiPSC-CMs. We performed pair-end sequencing with >30 million reads per sample with clean read counts of more than 96% for each sample.
Project description:Transcriptional regulatory circuits that drive cardiomyocyte maturation are poorly understood. Human iPS cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have been shown to have fetal cardiomyocyte features in terms of metabolic gene expression profiles. Here we found that in hiPSC-CMs, overexpression of estrogen-related receptor gamma (ERRg) is sufficient to drive cardiomyocyte metabolic maturation programs including the induction of a number of oxidative mitochondrial metabolic genes.
Project description:We performed a genome-wide analysis of m6A mRNA methylation in SUN-treated human pluripotent stem cells induced myocardial cells (hiPSC-CMs) by methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-seq).
