Project description:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited progressive cardiomyopathy. The pathophysiological events are well understood, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain undefined. Here we use patient originated hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes bearing a pathogenic PKP2 mutation (PKP2 c.2013delC/WT), a corresponding knock-in mouse model carrying the equivalent murine mutation (Pkp2 c.1755delA/WT), and human explanted ACM hearts, to identify disease driving mechanisms. Pkp2 c.1755delA/WT mice over time displayed signs of ACM as observed by cardiac dysfunction and pathological remodeling. At a molecular level these mice showed a reduction in desmosomal and adherens junction proteins as well as disarray of the intercalated discs in areas of active fibrotic remodeling. These findings were validated in the mutant hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes as well as human explanted ACM hearts, indicating both the conservation and relevance of protein degradation in the pathogenesis of the disease. Led by proteomics data, we demonstrated that the ubiquitin-proteasome system was responsible for the observed desmosomal protein degradation. These findings show the importance of appropriate disease modeling and provide means for therapeutic intervention for the prevention of ACM disease progression.

Project description:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) is an inherited progressive cardiomyopathy. The pathophysiological events are well understood, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain undefined. Here, we created a novel research platform comprising of patient originated hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes bearing a pathological PKP2 mutation (PKP2 c.2013delC/WT), a novel knock-in murine model carrying the equivalent mutation (Pkp2 c.1755delA/WT), and human explanted ACM hearts, to identify disease driving mechanisms. Pkp2 c.1755delA/WT mice displayed reduced desmosomal and adherens junctions protein levels and protein disarray of the intercalated discs in areas of active fibrotic remodeling. These findings were validated in hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes and human explanted ACM hearts. Led by proteomics data, we demonstrated that the ubiquitin-proteasome system was responsible for the observed desmosomal protein degradation. The research platform presented here provides a strong scientific basis to identify bona fide pathological processes and will aid in the development of potential therapies for the prevention of ACM disease progression.

Project description:Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inherited cardiac disease characterized by fibro-fatty replacement of the myocardium that causes heart failure and sudden cardiac death. The most aggressive subtype of ARVC is ARVC type 5 (ARVC5), caused by a p.S358L mutation in TMEM43. The function and localization of TMEM43 and the mechanism by which the p.S358L mutation causes the disease, are unknown.

Project description:Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy is an inherited entity characterized by irregular cell-cell adhesion, cardiomyocyte death, fibro-fatty replacement of ventricular myocytes, leading to malignant ventricular arrythmias, contractile dysfunction and sudden cardiac death. Pathogenic variants in genes that encode desmosome are the predominant cause of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. Moreover, signalling pathways such as Wnt/ß-catenin and transforming growth factor-β have been involved in the disease progression. However, still little is known about the molecular pathophysiological mechanisms that underlie arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy pathogenesis. We used mRNA and small RNA sequencing to analyse the transcriptome of health and arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy autopsied human hearts. Our results showed 697 differentially expressed genes, and eight differentially expressed miRNAs. Functional enrichment revealed mitochondrial respiratory-related pathways, impaired response to oxidative stress, apoptotic signalling pathway, inflammatory response-related and extracellular matrix response pathways. Furthermore, analysis of miRNA-mRNA interactome identified eleven negatively correlated miRNA-target pairs for arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. Our finding revealed novel arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy-related miRNAs with important regulatory function in disease pathogenesis highlighting their value as potential key targets for therapeutic approaches.

Project description:Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inherited cardiomyopathy primarily of the right ventricle characterized through fibrofatty replacement of cardiomyocytes. The genetic etiology in ARVC patients is most commonly caused by dominant inheritance and high genetic heterogeneity. Though histological examinations of ARVC affected human myocardium reveals fibrolipomatous replacement, the molecular mechanisms leading to loss of cardiomyocytes are largely unknown. We therefore analyzed the transcriptomes of 6 ARVC specimen derived from heart transplantation candidates and compared our findings to 6 non-failing donor hearts (NF) which could not be transplanted for technical reasons. In addition, we compared our findings to 7 hearts from patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy. From each heart left (LV) and right ventricular (RV) myocardial samples were analyzed by Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 arrays, adding up to six sample groups. Unsupervised cluster analyses of the six sample groups revealed a clear separation of NF and cardiomyopathy samples. However, in contrast to the other samples, unsupervised cluster analyses revealed no distinct expression pattern in LV and RV samples from ARVC-hearts. We further identified differentially expressed transcripts using t-tests and found transcripts separating diseased and NF ventricular myocardium. Of note, in failing myocardium only about 15-16% of the genes are commonly regulated compared to NF samples. In addition both cardiomyopathies are clearly distinct on the transcriptome level. Comparison of the expression patterns between the failing RV and LV using a paired t-test revealed a lack of major differences between LV and RV gene expression in ARVC hearts. Microarrays were used to elucidate the differences between non-failing control hearts and those, suffering from arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC).

Project description:Patients with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) have a high incidence of ventricular arrhythmias and a significant risk of sudden death. However, the difficulty in obtaining myocardial tissue samples from ACM patients at the early stage of the disease, coupled with the lack of animal models that can simulate the characteristics of human ACM, has severely hindered in-depth research into its pathogenesis.

Project description:The cWNT pathway has been implicated in the pathogenesis of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), including in cardiac dysfunction, apoptosis, and fibro-adipogenesis, the latter being the histological hallmark of ACM. The study was designed to determine effects of genetic activation or suppression of cWNT in a mouse model of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. The data show that activation of the cWNT in ACM deleterious whereas it suppression is benefiial.
