  • Endothelial-fibroblast interactions during Scarb1 accelerate heart failure

    Summary

    Endothelial cells (ECs) maintain cardiac homeostasis and EC dysfunction causes heart failure progression. Moreover, pathological changes occur via interactions between multiple cells, including ECs. Here, we conducted single-cell RNA-seq analysis of non-cardiomyocytes in mouse hearts during heart failure progression to elucidate the pathological changes in ECs and fibroblasts (FBs) mediated by cell-cell interactions. We show that capillary and arterial ECs exhibit mesenchymal gene expression changes with heart failure progression, indicating that endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) is a major pathological alteration in ECs. We also found that the interaction between ECs and FBs was enriched during heart failure, particularly when involving Scavenger Receptor Class B Member 1 (Scarb1) in ECs. FBs induce mesenchymal gene alterations in ECs in the EC-FB co-culture system, which is inhibited by blocking SCARB1. RNA-seq analysis showed that administration of a SCARB1 inhibitor blocked mesenchymal gene expression, and inflammatory changes, suggesting that the EC-FB interaction via Scarb1 is important for EndMT induction in ECs. Systemic administration of a SCARB1 inhibitor attenuated heart failure progression and cardiac fibrosis. EC-specificScarb1knockout mouse showed improved cardiac function, suggesting a crucial role of Scarb1 in heart failure progression. Our results suggest that Scarb1 is a promising candidate for novel heart failure treatments that target ECs.

  • Machine learning in cardiology: Clinical application and basic research

    　View Summary

    Machine learning is a subfield of artificial intelligence. The quality and versatility of machine learning have been rapidly improving and playing a critical role in many aspects of social life. This trend is also observed in the medical field. Generally, there are three main types of machine learning: supervised, unsupervised, and reinforcement learning. Each type of learning is adequately selected for the purpose and type of data. In the field of medicine, various types of information are collected and used, and research using machine learning is becoming increasingly relevant. Many clinical studies are conducted using electronic health and medical records, including in the cardiovascular area. Machine learning has also been applied in basic research. Machine learning has been widely used for several types of data analysis, such as clustering of microarray analysis and RNA sequence analysis. Machine learning is essential for genome and multi-omics analyses. This review summarizes the recent advancements in the use of machine learning in clinical applications and basic cardiovascular research.

  • MEF2C/p300-mediated epigenetic remodeling promotes the maturation of induced cardiomyocytes

    　View Summary

    Cardiac transcription factors (TFs) directly reprogram fibroblasts into induced cardiomyocytes (iCMs), where MEF2C acts as a pioneer factor with GATA4 and TBX5 (GT). However, the generation of functional and mature iCMs is inefficient, and the molecular mechanisms underlying this process remain largely unknown. Here, we found that the overexpression of transcriptionally activated MEF2C via fusion of the powerful MYOD transactivation domain combined with GT increased the generation of beating iCMs by 30-fold. Activated MEF2C with GT generated iCMs that were transcriptionally, structurally, and functionally more mature than those generated by native MEF2C with GT. Mechanistically, activated MEF2C recruited p300 and multiple cardiogenic TFs to cardiac loci to induce chromatin remodeling. In contrast, p300 inhibition suppressed cardiac gene expression, inhibited iCM maturation, and decreased the beating iCM numbers. Splicing isoforms of MEF2C with similar transcriptional activities did not promote functional iCM generation. Thus, MEF2C/p300-mediated epigenetic remodeling promotes iCM maturation.

  • Development of non-bias phenotypic drug screening for cardiomyocyte hypertrophy by image segmentation using deep learning

    　View Summary

    The number of patients with heart failure and related deaths is rapidly increasing worldwide, making it a major problem. Cardiac hypertrophy is a crucial preliminary step in heart failure, but its treatment has not yet been fully successful. In this study, we established a system to evaluate cardiomyocyte hypertrophy using a deep learning-based high-throughput screening system and identified drugs that inhibit it. First, primary cultured cardiomyocytes from neonatal rats were stimulated by both angiotensin II and endothelin-1, and cellular images were captured using a phase-contrast microscope. Subsequently, we used a deep learning model for instance segmentation and established a system to automatically and unbiasedly evaluate the cardiomyocyte size and perimeter. Using this system, we screened 100 FDA-approved drugs library and identified 12 drugs that inhibited cardiomyocyte hypertrophy. We focused on ezetimibe, a cholesterol absorption inhibitor, that inhibited cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in a dose-dependent manner in vitro. Additionally, ezetimibe improved the cardiac dysfunction induced by pressure overload in mice. These results suggest that the deep learning-based system is useful for the evaluation of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and drug screening, leading to the development of new treatments for heart failure.

  • Epigenetic barrier against the propagation of fluctuating gene expression in embryonic stem cells

    　View Summary

    © 2017 Federation of European Biochemical Societies The expression of pluripotency genes fluctuates in a population of embryonic stem (ES) cells and the fluctuations in the expression of some pluripotency genes correlate. However, no correlation in the fluctuation of Pou5f1, Zfp42, and Nanog expression was observed in ES cells. Correlation between Pou5f1 and Zfp42 fluctuations was demonstrated in ES cells containing a knockout in the NuRD component Mbd3. ES cells containing a triple knockout in the DNA methyltransferases Dnmt1, Dnmt3a, and Dnmt3b showed correlation between the fluctuation of Pou5f1, Zfp42, and Nanog gene expression. We suggest that an epigenetic barrier is key to preventing the propagation of fluctuating pluripotency gene expression in ES cells.

    我々は線維芽細胞から心筋細胞を作製する直接分化転換法の研究において、幹細胞の多能性維持に働く転写因子Zfp281に非常に強い心筋分化転換作用がある事を見出した。そして予備実験においてZfp281が心筋分化と心臓発生に必須な因子であることも示唆されている。
    よって、本研究ではこのZfp281と心臓形成の予想外な関連性に着目し、様々な遺伝子改変マウス及び遺伝子発現・エピゲノム解析を用いて、Zfp281を中心とした心臓形成の新たな転写制御機構を明らかにする。そして、最終的には研究成果を心疾患の新たな分子機序解明や心臓再生技術の開発へと発展させることを目指す。
