Abstract
BACKGROUND Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked disorder characterized by progressive muscle weakness due to the absence of functional dystrophin. DMD patients also develop dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). We have previously shown that DMD (mdx) mice and a canine DMD model (GRMD) exhibit abnormal intracellular calcium (Ca2+) cycling related to early-stage pathological remodelling of the ryanodine receptor intracellular calcium release channel (RyR2) on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) contributing to age-dependent DCM. METHODS Here, we used hiPSC-CMs from DMD patients selected by Speckle-tracking echocardiography and canine DMD cardiac biopsies to assess key early-stage Duchenne DCM features. RESULTS Dystrophin deficiency was associated with RyR2 remodelling and SR Ca2+ leak (RyR2 Po of 0.03 ± 0.01 for HC vs. 0.16 ± 0.01 for DMD, P < 0.01), which led to early-stage defects including senescence. We observed higher levels of senescence markers including p15 (2.03 ± 0.75 for HC vs. 13.67 ± 5.49 for DMD, P < 0.05) and p16 (1.86 ± 0.83 for HC vs. 10.71 ± 3.00 for DMD, P < 0.01) in DMD hiPSC-CMs and in the canine DMD model. The fibrosis was increased in DMD hiPSC-CMs. We observed cardiac hypocontractility in DMD hiPSC-CMs. Stabilizing RyR2 pharmacologically by S107 prevented most of these pathological features, including the rescue of the contraction amplitude (1.65 ± 0.06 μm for DMD vs. 2.26 ± 0.08 μm for DMD + S107, P < 0.01). These data were confirmed by proteomic analyses, in particular ECM remodelling and fibrosis. CONCLUSIONS We identified key cellular damages that are established earlier than cardiac clinical pathology in DMD patients, with major perturbation of the cardiac ECC. Our results demonstrated that cardiac fibrosis and premature senescence are induced by RyR2 mediated SR Ca2+ leak in DMD cardiomyocytes. We revealed that RyR2 is an early biomarker of DMD-associated cardiac damages in DMD patients. The progressive and later DCM onset could be linked with the RyR2-mediated increased fibrosis and premature senescence, eventually causing cell death and further cardiac fibrosis in a vicious cycle leading to further hypocontractility as a major feature of DCM. The present study provides a novel understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms of the DMD-induced DCM. By targeting RyR2 channels, it provides a potential pharmacological treatment.

Abstract
Type 2 Long QT Syndrome (LQT2) is a rare genetic heart rhythm disorder causing life-threatening arrhythmias. We derived induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from two patients with LQT2, aged 18 and 6, both carrying a heterozygous missense mutation on the 3rd and 11th exons of KCNH2. The iPSC lines exhibited normal genomes, expressed pluripotent markers, and differentiated into trilineage embryonic layers. These patient-specific iPSC lines provide a valuable model to study the molecular and functional impact of the hERG channel gene mutation in LQT2 and to develop personalized therapeutic approaches for this syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (PMVT) is a rare genetic disease associated with structurally normal hearts which in 8% of cases can lead to sudden cardiac death, typically exercise-induced. We previously showed a link between the RyR2-H29D mutation and a clinical phenotype of short-coupled PMVT at rest using patient-specific hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs). In the present study, we evaluated the effects of clinical and experimental anti-arrhythmic drugs on the intracellular Ca2+ handling, contractile and molecular properties in PMVT hiPSC-CMs in order to model a personalized medicine approach in vitro. METHODS Previously, a blood sample from a patient carrying the RyR2-H29D mutation was collected and reprogrammed into several clones of RyR2-H29D hiPSCs, and in addition we generated an isogenic control by reverting the RyR2-H29D mutation using CRIPSR/Cas9 technology. Here, we tested 4 drugs with anti-arrhythmic properties: propranolol, verapamil, flecainide, and the Rycal S107. We performed fluorescence confocal microscopy, video-image-based analyses and biochemical analyses to investigate the impact of these drugs on the functional and molecular features of the PMVT RyR2-H29D hiPSC-CMs. RESULTS The voltage-dependent Ca2+ channel inhibitor verapamil did not prevent the aberrant release of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ in the RyR2-H29D hiPSC-CMs, whereas it was prevented by S107, flecainide or propranolol. Cardiac tissue comprised of RyR2-H29D hiPSC-CMs exhibited aberrant contractile properties that were largely prevented by S107, flecainide and propranolol. These 3 drugs also recovered synchronous contraction in RyR2-H29D cardiac tissue, while verapamil did not. At the biochemical level, S107 was the only drug able to restore calstabin2 binding to RyR2 as observed in the isogenic control. CONCLUSIONS By testing 4 drugs on patient-specific PMVT hiPSC-CMs, we concluded that S107 and flecainide are the most potent molecules in terms of preventing the abnormal SR Ca2+ release and contractile properties in RyR2-H29D hiPSC-CMs, whereas the effect of propranolol is partial, and verapamil appears ineffective. In contrast with the 3 other drugs, S107 was able to prevent a major post-translational modification of RyR2-H29D mutant channels, the loss of calstabin2 binding to RyR2. Using patient-specific hiPSC and CRISPR/Cas9 technologies, we showed that S107 is the most efficient in vitro candidate for treating the short-coupled PMVT at rest.

Abstract
In the heart, cardiac function is regulated by the autonomic nervous system (ANS) that extends through the myocardium and establishes junctions at the sinus node and ventricular levels. Thus, an increase or decrease in neuronal activity acutely affects myocardial function and chronically affects its structure through remodeling processes. The neuro-cardiac junction (NCJ), which is the major structure of this system, is poorly understood and only a few cell models allow us to study it. Here, we present an innovant neuro-cardiac organ-on-chip model to study this structure to better understand the mechanisms involved in the establishment of NCJ. To create such a system, we used microfluidic devices composed of two separate cell culture compartments interconnected by asymmetric microchannels. Rat PC12 cells were differentiated to recapitulate the characteristics of sympathetic neurons, and cultivated with cardiomyocytes derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC). We confirmed the presence of a specialized structure between the two cell types that allows neuromodulation and observed that the neuronal stimulation impacts the excitation-contraction coupling properties including the intracellular calcium handling. Finally, we also co-cultivated human neurons (hiPSC-NRs) with human cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs), both obtained from the same hiPSC line. Hence, we have developed a neuro-cardiac compartmentalized in vitro model system that allows us to recapitulate the structural and functional properties of the neuro-cardiac junction and that can also be used to better understand the interaction between the heart and brain in humans, as well as to evaluate the impact of drugs on a reconstructed human neuro-cardiac system.

Abstract
Cardiomyopathy is a myocardial disorder, in which the heart muscle is structurally and functionally abnormal, often leading to heart failure. Dilated cardiomyopathy is characterized by a compromised left ventricular function and contributes significantly to the heart failure epidemic, which represents a staggering clinical and public health problem worldwide. Gene mutations have been identified in 35% of patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. Pathogenic variants in LMNA, encoding nuclear A-type lamins, are one of the major causative causes of dilated cardiomyopathy (i.e. CardioLaminopathy). A-type lamins are type V intermediate filament proteins, which are the main components of the nuclear lamina. The nuclear lamina is connected to the cytoskeleton on one side, and to the chromatin on the other side. Among the models proposed to explain how CardioLaminopathy arises, the “chromatin model” posits an effect of mutated A-type lamins on the 3D genome organization and thus on the transcription activity of tissue-specific genes. Chromatin contacts with the nuclear lamina via specific genomic regions called lamina-associated domains lamina-associated domains. These LADs play a role in the chromatin organization and gene expression regulation. This review focuses on the identification of LADs and chromatin remodeling in cardiac muscle cells expressing mutated A-type lamins and discusses the methods and relevance of these findings in disease.

Background
Calcium (Ca2+) uptake through the mitochondrial Ca2+ uniporter complex (MCUC) controls keys steps of the oxidative metabolism. In metabolic cardiomyopathy, myocardial mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake is impaired, but whether it is an early feature of the pathology remain unsolved.
Purpose
To establish whether mitochondrial Ca2+ dynamics and MCUC structure and function are affected at the early stage of the metabolic cardiomyopathy.
Methods and Results
Mice fed two weeks with a high fat sucrose diet display early features of metabolic disorders and diastolic dysfunction. Concomitantly, mitochondrial Ca2+-dependent pyruvate dehydrogenase activity and the beat-to-beat mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake are reduced. The impaired mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake was further confirmed by single channel recordings of the native MCUC incorporated in planar lipid bilayer demonstrating a reduction of the ion conductance and the open probability. The MCUC biochemical analysis showed an elevation of the EMRE subunit expression and an increase interaction of EMRE with the MICU1 subunits. Co-immunoprecipitation also revealed a deceased interaction of the pore forming subunits MCU with EMRE-MICU1 subcomplex. The displacement of the MCUC assembly was confirmed by the decrease in m-AAA protease-interacting protein 1 expression as well as its loss of binding with EMRE.
Conclusions
The remodeling of the MCUC integrity impacts mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis at the early stage of the metabolic cardiomyopathy and provides a novel post-translational paradigm of the MCUC regulation in pathophysiological context.

Abstract
Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia (CPVT) is a genetic disorder characterized by ventricular tachycardia, that can cause the heart to stop beating leading to death. The prevalence is 1/10.000 and in approximately 60% of cases, the syndrome can be due to a mutation of the cardiac ryanodine receptor gene (RyR2). We derived an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from an 11-year-old patient blood-cells, carrying a heterozygous missense mutation on the 8th exon of the RyR2 N-terminal part. This reprogramed CPVT line displayed normal karyotype, expressed pluripotent markers and had a capacity to differentiate in trilineage embryonic layers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Duchenne muscular dystrophy is associated with progressive deterioration in left ventricular (LV) function. The golden retriever muscular dystrophy (GRMD) dog model recapitulates the pathology and clinical manifestations of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Importantly, they develop progressive LV dysfunction starting at early age. OBJECTIVES The authors tested the cardioprotective effect of chronic administration of the ARM036, a small molecule that stabilizes the closed conformation of the cardiac sarcoplasmic reticulum ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel (RyR2) in young GRMD-dogs. METHODS Two-month-old GRMD-dogs were treated with ARM036 or placebo for 4 months. Healthy-dogs of the same genetic background served as controls. Cardiac function was evaluated by conventional and 2-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography. Cardiac cellular and molecular analyses were performed at 6 months old. RESULTS Conventional echocardiography showed normal LV dimensions and ejection fraction in 6-month-old GRMD dogs. Interestingly, 2-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography revealed decreased global longitudinal strain and the presence of hypokinetic segments in placebo-treated GRMD dogs. Single-channel measurements revealed higher RyR2 open probability at low resting Ca2+ in GRMD cardiomyocytes than in controls. ARM036 prevented those in vivo and in vitro dysfunctions in GRMD dogs. Myofilament Ca2+-sensitivity was increased in permeabilized GRMD cardiomyocytes at short sarcomere length. ARM036 had no effect on this parameter. Cross-bridge cycling kinetics were altered in GRMD myocytes and recovered with ARM036 treatment, which coincided with the level of myosin binding protein-C-S glutathionylation. CONCLUSIONS GRMD-dogs exhibit early LV dysfunction associated with altered myofilament contractile properties. These abnormalities were prevented pharmacologically by stabilizing RyR2 with ARM036.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by progressive muscle wasting following repeated muscle damage and inadequate regeneration. Impaired myogenesis and differentiation play a major role in DMD as well as intracellular calcium (Ca2+) mishandling. Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum is mostly mediated by the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RYR1) that is required for skeletal muscle differentiation in animals. The study objective was to determine whether altered RYR1-mediated Ca2+ release contributes to myogenic differentiation impairment in DMD patients. The comparison of primary cultured myoblasts from six boys with DMD and five healthy controls highlighted delayed myoblast differentiation in DMD. Silencing RYR1 expression using specific si-RNA in a healthy control induced a similar delayed differentiation. In DMD myotubes, resting intracellular Ca2+ concentration was increased, but RYR1-mediated Ca2+ release was not changed compared with control myotubes. Incubation with the RYR-calstabin interaction stabilizer S107 decreased resting Ca2+ concentration in DMD myotubes to control values and improved calstabin1 binding to the RYR1 complex. S107 also improved myogenic differentiation in DMD. Furthermore, intracellular Ca2+ concentration was correlated with endomysial fibrosis, which is the only myopathologic parameter associated with poor motor outcome in patients with DMD. This suggested a potential relationship between RYR1 dysfunction and motor impairment. Our study highlights RYR1-mediated Ca2+ leakage in human DMD myotubes and its key role in myogenic differentiation impairment. RYR1 stabilization may be an interesting adjunctive therapeutic strategy in DMD.

Abstract
The regulation of intracellular calcium (Ca2+) homeostasis is fundamental to maintain normal functions in many cell types. The ryanodine receptor (RyR), the largest intracellular calcium release channel located on the sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (SR/ER), plays a key role in the intracellular Ca2+ handling. Abnormal type 2 ryanodine receptor (RyR2) function, associated to mutations (ryanopathies) or pathological remodeling, has been reported, not only in cardiac diseases, but also in neuronal and pancreatic disorders. While animal models and in vitro studies provided valuable contributions to our knowledge on RyR2 dysfunctions, the human cell models derived from patients’ cells offer new hope for improving our understanding of human clinical diseases and enrich the development of great medical advances. We here discuss the current knowledge on RyR2 dysfunctions associated with mutations and post-translational remodeling. We then reviewed the novel human cellular technologies allowing the correlation of patient’s genome with their cellular environment and providing approaches for personalized RyR-targeted therapeutics.

Abstract
MOTIVATION Cardiomyocytes derived from stem cells are closely followed, notably since the discovery in 2007 of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC). Cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CM) derived from hiPSC are indeed more and more used to study specific cardiac diseases as well as for developing novel applications such as drug safety experiments. Robust dedicated tools to characterize hiPSC-CM are now required. The hiPSC-CM morphology constitutes an important parameter since these cells do not demonstrate the expected rod shape, characteristic of native human cardiomyocytes. Similarly, the presence, the density and the organization of contractile structures would be a valuable parameter to study. Precise measurements of such characteristics would be useful in many situations: for describing pathological conditions, for pharmacological screens or even for studies focused on the hiPSC-CM maturation process. RESULTS For this purpose, we developed a MATLAB based image analysis toolbox, which gives accurate values for cellular morphology parameters as well as for the contractile cell organization. IMPLEMENTATION To demonstrate the power of this automated image analysis, we used a commercial maturation medium intended to promote the maturation status of hiPSC-CM, and compare the parameters with the ones obtained with standard culture medium, and with freshly dissociated mouse cardiomyocytes. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a devastating condition shortening the lifespan of young men. DMD patients suffer from age-related dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) that leads to heart failure. Several molecular mechanisms leading to cardiomyocyte death in DMD have been described. However, the pathological progression of DMD-associated DCM remains unclear. In skeletal muscle, a dramatic decrease in stem cells, so-called satellite cells, has been shown in DMD patients. Whether similar dysfunction occurs with cardiac muscle cardiovascular progenitor cells (CVPCs) in DMD remains to be explored. We hypothesized that the number of CVPCs decreases in the dystrophin-deficient heart with age and disease state, contributing to DCM progression. We used the dystrophin-deficient mouse model (mdx) to investigate age-dependent CVPC properties. Using quantitative PCR, flow cytometry, speckle tracking echocardiography, and immunofluorescence, we revealed that young mdx mice exhibit elevated CVPCs. We observed a rapid age-related CVPC depletion, coinciding with the progressive onset of cardiac dysfunction. Moreover, mdx CVPCs displayed increased DNA damage, suggesting impaired cardiac muscle homeostasis. Overall, our results identify the early recruitment of CVPCs in dystrophic hearts and their fast depletion with ageing. This latter depletion may participate in the fibrosis development and the acceleration onset of the cardiomyopathy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Severe ventricular rhythm disturbances are the hallmark of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), and are often explained by structural conduction abnormalities. However, comprehensive investigations of ACM cell electrical instability are lacking. This study aimed to elucidate early electrical myogenic signature of ACM. METHODS We investigated a 41-year-old ACM patient with a missense mutation (c.394C>T) in the DSC2 gene, which encodes desmocollin 2. Pathogenicity of this variant was confirmed using a zebrafish DSC2 model system. Control and DSC2 patient-derived pluripotent stem cells were reprogrammed and differentiated into cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CM) to examine the specific electromechanical phenotype and its modulation by antiarrhythmic drugs (AADs). Samples of the patient's heart and hiPSC-CM were examined to identify molecular and cellular alterations. RESULTS A shortened action potential duration was associated with reduced Ca2+ current density and increased K+ current density. This finding led to the elucidation of previously unknown abnormal repolarization dynamics in ACM patients. Moreover, the Ca2+ mobilised during transients was decreased, and the Ca2+ sparks frequency was increased. AAD testing revealed the following: (1) flecainide normalised Ca2+ transients and significantly decreased Ca2+ spark occurrence and (2) sotalol significantly lengthened the action potential and normalised the cells' contractile properties. CONCLUSIONS Thorough analysis of hiPSC-CM derived from the DSC2 patient revealed abnormal repolarization dynamics, prompting the discovery of a short QT interval in some ACM patients. Overall, these results confirm a myogenic origin of ACM electrical instability and provide a rationale for prescribing class 1 and 3 AADs in ACM patients with increased ventricular repolarization reserve.

Abstract
Numerous protocols of cardiac differentiation have been established by essentially focusing on specific growth factors on human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) differentiation efficiency. However, the optimal environmental factors to obtain cardiac myocytes in network are still unclear. The mesoderm germ layer differentiation is known to be enhanced by low oxygen exposure. Here, we hypothesized that low oxygen exposure enhances the molecular and functional maturity of the cardiomyocytes. We aimed at comparing the molecular and functional consequences of low (5% O2 or LOE) and high oxygen exposure (21% O2 or HOE) on cardiac differentiation of hPSCs in 2D- and 3D-based protocols. hPSC-CMs were differentiated through both the 2D (monolayer) and 3D (embryoid body) protocols using several lines. Cardiac marker expression and cell morphology were assessed. The mitochondrial localization and metabolic properties were evaluated. The intracellular Ca2+ handling and contractile properties were also monitored. The 2D cardiac monolayer can only be differentiated in HOE. The 3D cardiac spheroids containing hPSC-CMs in LOE further exhibited cardiac markers, hypertrophy, steadier SR Ca2+ release properties revealing a better SR Ca2+ handling, and enhanced contractile force. Preserved distribution of mitochondria and similar oxygen consumption by the mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes were also observed. Our results brought evidences that LOE is moderately beneficial for the 3D cardiac spheroids with hPSC-CMs exhibiting further maturity. In contrast, the 2D cardiac monolayers strictly require HOE.

Abstract
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a X-linked degenerative pathology with a prevalence of 1/3600-6000 boys due to the absence of functional dystrophin in muscles. This muscular disease leads to skeletal muscle damages, respiratory failure and in the later stages dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) leading to heart failure. We generated iPSC lines from three different DMD patients carrying respectively deletions of exons 1, 52 and 55 in the dystrophin gene. The reprogrammed iPSC lines showed expression of pluripotent markers, capacity to differentiate in trilineage embryonic layers and a normal karyotype.

Abstract
Background While mutations in the cardiac type 2 ryanodine receptor (RyR2) have been linked to exercise-induced or catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), its association with polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (PMVT) occurring at rest is unclear. We aimed at constructing a patient-specific human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) model of PMVT occurring at rest linked to a single point mutation in RyR2. Methods Blood samples were obtained from a patient with PMVT at rest due to a heterozygous RyR2-H29D mutation. Patient-specific hiPSCs were generated from the blood samples, and the hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (CMs) were generated via directed differentiation. Using CRIPSR/Cas9 technology, isogenic controls were generated by correcting the RyR2-H29D mutation. Using patch-clamp, fluorescent confocal microscopy and video-image-based analysis, the molecular and functional properties of RyR2-H29D hiPSC—CMs and control hiPSC—CMs were compared. Findings RyR2-H29D hiPSC—CMs exhibit intracellular sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ leak through RyR2 under physiological pacing. RyR2-H29D enhances the contribution of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors to excitation-contraction coupling (ECC) that exacerbates abnormal Ca2+ release in RyR2-H29D hiPSC—CMs. RyR2-H29D hiPSC—CMs exhibit shorter action potentials, delayed afterdepolarizations, arrhythmias and aberrant contractile properties compared to isogenic controls. The RyR2-H29D mutation causes post-translational remodeling that is fully reversed with isogenic controls. Interpretation To conclude, in a model based on a RyR2 point mutation that is associated with short-coupled PMVT at rest, RyR2-H29D hiPSC—CMs exhibited aberrant intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis, shortened action potentials, arrhythmias and abnormal contractile properties.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a debilitating disorder related to dystrophin encoding gene mutations, often associated with dilated cardiomyopathy. However, it is still unclear how dystrophin deficiency affects cardiac sarcomere remodeling and contractile dysfunction. We employed second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy, a nonlinear optical imaging technique that allows studying contractile apparatus organization without histologic fixation and immunostaining. Images were acquired on alive DMD (mdx) and wild type cardiomyocytes at different ages and at various external calcium concentrations. An automated image processing was developed to identify individual myofibrils and extract data about their organization. We observed a structural aging-dependent remodeling in mdx cardiomyocytes affecting sarcomere sinuosity, orientation and length that could not be anticipated from standard optical imaging. These results revealed for the first time the interest of SHG to evaluate the intracellular and sarcomeric remodeling of DMD cardiac tissue in an age-dependent manner that could participate in progressive contractile dysfunction.

Abstract
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severe genetic disorder characterized by the lack of functional dystrophin. DMD is associated with progressive dilated cardiomyopathy, eventually leading to heart failure as the main cause of death in DMD patients. Although several molecular mechanisms leading to the DMD cardiomyocyte (DMD-CM) death were described, mostly in mouse model, no suitable human CM model was until recently available together with proper clarification of the DMD-CM phenotype and delay in cardiac symptoms manifestation. We obtained several independent dystrophin-deficient human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) lines from DMD patients and CRISPR/Cas9-generated DMD gene mutation. We differentiated DMD-hPSC into cardiac cells (CC) creating a human DMD-CC disease model. We observed that mutation-carrying cells were less prone to differentiate into CCs. DMD-CCs demonstrated an enhanced cell death rate in time. Furthermore, ion channel expression was altered in terms of potassium (Kir2.1 overexpression) and calcium handling (dihydropyridine receptor overexpression). DMD-CCs exhibited increased time of calcium transient rising compared to aged-matched control, suggesting mishandling of calcium release. We observed mechanical impairment (hypocontractility), bradycardia, increased heart rate variability, and blunted β-adrenergic response connected with remodeling of β-adrenergic receptors expression in DMD-CCs. Overall, these results indicated that our DMD-CC models are functionally affected by dystrophin-deficiency associated and recapitulate functional defects and cardiac wasting observed in the disease. It offers an accurate tool to study human cardiomyopathy progression and test therapies in vitro.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prognosis of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is related to cardiac dysfunction. Speckle-tracking echocardiographic (STE) imaging is emerging as a noninvasive functional biomarker to consider in the early detection of DMD-related cardiomyopathy. However, STE analysis has not been assessed in a prospectively controlled study, especially in presymptomatic children with DMD, and no study has used STE analysis in all three displacements (longitudinal, radial, and circumferential) and for both ventricles. METHODS This prospective controlled study enrolled 108 boys, 36 of whom had DMD (mean age, 11 ± 3.8 years) and 72 of whom were age-matched control subjects in a 1:2 case-control design. Conventional echocardiographic variables were collected for the left and right ventricles. STE analyses were performed in the longitudinal, radial, and circumferential displacements for the left ventricle and in the free wall longitudinal displacement for the right ventricle. The effect of age on the evolution of two-dimensional strain in children with DMD was studied by adding an interaction term, DMD × age, in the models. RESULTS Conventional echocardiographic measures were normal in both groups. Left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction ranged from 45% to 76% (mean, 63 ± 6%) in the DMD group and from 55% to 76% (mean, 64 ± 5%) in the control group. Global LV strain mean measures were significantly worse in the DMD group for the longitudinal (-16.8 ± 3.9% vs -20.6 ± 2.6%, P < .0001), radial (22.7 ± 11.3% vs 31.7 ± 14%, P = .002), and circumferential (-16.5 ± 3.8% vs -20.3 ± 3.1%, P < .0001) displacements. The decrease of global LV longitudinal strain with age in children with DMD was 0.34% per year more marked than that in control subjects. The LV inferolateral and anterolateral segments were specifically impaired, especially in the basal area. Right ventricular function evaluated using conventional echocardiography and STE analysis was normal and not different between children with DMD and control subjects. CONCLUSIONS The existence of altered LV strain despite normal LV function in children with DMD represents an important perspective for future pediatric drug trials in DMD-related cardiomyopathy prevention.

Abstract
Recent data on Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) show myocyte progenitor's involvement in the disease pathology often leading to the DMD patient's death. The molecular mechanism underlying stem cell impairment in DMD has not been described. We created dystrophin-deficient human pluripotent stem cell (hPSC) lines by reprogramming cells from two DMD patients, and also by introducing dystrophin mutation into human embryonic stem cells via CRISPR/Cas9. While dystrophin is expressed in healthy hPSC, its deficiency in DMD hPSC lines induces the release of reactive oxygen species (ROS) through dysregulated activity of all three isoforms of nitric oxide synthase (further abrev. as, NOS). NOS-induced ROS release leads to DNA damage and genomic instability in DMD hPSC. We were able to reduce both the ROS release as well as DNA damage to the level of wild-type hPSC by inhibiting NOS activity.

Abstract
Background: Sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ leak and post-translational modifications under stress have been implicated in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), a highly lethal inherited arrhythmogenic disorder. Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) offer a unique opportunity for disease modeling. Objective: The aims were to obtain functional hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes from a CPVT patient harboring a novel ryanodine receptor (RyR2) mutation and model the syndrome, drug responses and investigate the molecular mechanisms associated to the CPVT syndrome. Methods: Patient-specific cardiomyocytes were generated from a young athletic female diagnosed with CPVT. The contractile, intracellular Ca2+ handling and electrophysiological properties as well as the RyR2 macromolecular remodeling were studied. Results: Exercise stress electrocardiography revealed polymorphic ventricular tachycardia when treated with metoprolol and marked improvement with flecainide alone. We found abnormal stress-induced contractile and electrophysiological properties associated with sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ leak in CPVT hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes. We found inadequate response to metoprolol and a potent response of flecainide. Stabilizing RyR2 with a Rycal compound prevents those abnormalities specifically in CPVT hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes. The RyR2-D3638A mutation is located in the conformational change inducing-central core domain and leads to RyR2 macromolecular remodeling including depletion of PP2A and Calstabin2. Conclusion: We identified a novel RyR2-D3638A mutation causing 3D conformational defects and aberrant biophysical properties associated to RyR2 macromolecular complex post-translational remodeling. The molecular remodeling is for the first time revealed using patient-specific hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes which may explain the CPVT proband’s resistance. Our study promotes hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes as a suitable model for disease modeling, testing new therapeutic compounds, personalized medicine and deciphering underlying molecular mechanisms.

Abstract
The mechanisms underlying ryanodine receptor (RyR) dysfunction associated with Alzheimer disease (AD) are still not well understood. Here, we show that neuronal RyR2 channels undergo post-translational remodeling (PKA phosphorylation, oxidation, and nitrosylation) in brains of AD patients, and in two murine models of AD (3 × Tg-AD, APP +/- /PS1 +/-). RyR2 is depleted of calstabin2 (KFBP12.6) in the channel complex, resulting in endoplasmic reticular (ER) calcium (Ca2+) leak. RyR-mediated ER Ca2+ leak activates Ca2+-dependent signaling pathways, contributing to AD pathogenesis. Pharmacological (using a novel RyR stabilizing drug Rycal) or genetic rescue of the RyR2-mediated intracellular Ca2+ leak improved synaptic plasticity, normalized behavioral and cognitive functions and reduced Aβ load. Genetically altered mice with congenitally leaky RyR2 exhibited premature and severe defects in synaptic plasticity, behavior and cognitive function. These data provide a mechanism underlying leaky RyR2 channels, which could be considered as potential AD therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Omp85 transporters mediate protein insertion into, or translocation across, membranes. They have a conserved architecture, with POTRA domains that interact with substrate proteins, a 16-stranded transmembrane β barrel, and an extracellular loop, L6, folded back in the barrel pore. Here using electrophysiology, in vivo biochemical approaches and electron paramagnetic resonance, we show that the L6 loop of the Omp85 transporter FhaC changes conformation and modulates channel opening. Those conformational changes involve breaking the conserved interaction between the tip of L6 and the inner β-barrel wall. The membrane-proximal POTRA domain also exchanges between several conformations, and the binding of FHA displaces this equilibrium. We further demonstrate a dynamic, physical communication between the POTRA domains and L6, which must take place via the β barrel. Our findings thus link all three essential components of Omp85 transporters and indicate that they operate in a concerted fashion in the transport cycle.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that posttranscriptionally regulate gene expression. In the last decade, number of evidences showing miRNAs contribution to the regulation of apoptosis, cellular proliferation, differentiation, and other important cellular processes is constantly growing. Specific miRNA expression signatures have been identified in variety of human cancers as well as pathologies of cardiovascular and urinary systems. Our chapter focuses on the potential of urinary miRNAs to serve as biomarkers in uro-oncology, nephrology, and cardiology. We discuss in detail recent knowledge about the origin of urinary miRNAs, their stability, quality control, and their utility as a potential new class of biomarkers in medicine. Finally, we summarize the studies focusing on detection and characterization of urinary miRNAs as potential biomarkers in urologic cancers, nephrology, and cardiology.

Abstract
AIMS TRPM2 is a Ca(2+)-permeable cationic channel of the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily that is linked to apoptotic signalling. Its involvement in cardiac pathophysiology is unknown. The aim of this study was to determine whether the pro-apoptotic cytokine tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) induces a TRPM2-like current in murine ventricular cardiomyocytes. METHODS AND RESULTS Adult isolated cardiomyocytes from C57BL/6 mice were exposed to TNF-α (10 ng/mL). Western blotting showed TRPM2 expression, which was not changed after TNF-α incubation. Using patch clamp in whole-cell configuration, a non-specific cation current was recorded after exposure to TNF-α (ITNF), which reached maximal steady-state amplitude after 3 h incubation. ITNF was inhibited by the caspase-8 inhibitor z-IETD-fmk, the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine, and the TRPM2 inhibitors clotrimazole, N-(P-amylcinnamoyl) anthranilic acid and flufenamic acid (FFA). TRPM2 has previously been shown to be activated by ADP-ribose, which is produced by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1). TNF-α exposure resulted in increased poly-ADP-ribosylation of proteins and the PARP-1 inhibitor 3-aminobenzamide inhibited ITNF. TNF-α exposure increased the mitochondrial production of reactive oxygen species (ROS; measured with the fluorescent indicator MitoSOX Red), and this increase was blocked by the caspase-8 inhibitor z-IETD-fmk. Clotrimazole and TRPM2 inhibitory antibody decreased TNF-α-induced cardiomyocyte death. CONCLUSION These results demonstrate that TNF-α induces a TRPM2 current in adult ventricular cardiomyocytes. TNF-α induces caspase-8 activation leading to ROS production, PARP-1 activation, and ADP-ribose production. TNF-induced TRPM2 activation may contribute to cardiomyocyte cell death.

Abstract
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), namely, embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), with their ability of indefinite self-renewal and capability to differentiate into cell types derivatives of all three germ layers, represent a powerful research tool in developmental biology, for drug screening, disease modelling, and potentially cell replacement therapy. Efficient differentiation protocols that would result in the cell type of our interest are needed for maximal exploitation of these cells. In the present work, we aim at focusing on the protocols for differentiation of hPSCs into functional cardiomyocytes in vitro as well as achievements in the heart disease modelling and drug testing on the patient-specific iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs).

Abstract
In vitro human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) can differentiate into functional cardiomyocytes (CMs). Protocols for cardiac differentiation of hESCs and hiPSCs include formation of the three-dimensional cell aggregates called embryoid bodies (EBs). The traditional suspension method for EB formation from clumps of cells results in an EB population heterogeneous in size and shape. In this study we show that forced aggregation of a defined number of single cells on AggreWell plates gives a high number of homogeneous EBs that can be efficiently differentiated into functional CMs by application of defined growth factors in the media. For cardiac differentiation, we used three hESC lines and one hiPSC line. Our contracting EBs and the resulting CMs express cardiac markers, namely myosin heavy chain α and β, cardiac ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel, and cardiac troponin T, shown by real-time polymerase chain reaction and immunocytochemistry. Using Ca(2+) imaging and atomic force microscopy, we demonstrate the functionality of RyR2 to release Ca(2+) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum as well as reliability in contractile and beating properties of hESC-EBs and hiPSC-EBs upon the stimulation or inhibition of the β-adrenergic pathway.

Abstract
The type 2 ryanodine receptor/calcium release channel (RyR2), required for excitation-contraction coupling in the heart, is abundant in the brain. Chronic stress induces catecholamine biosynthesis and release, stimulating β-adrenergic receptors and activating cAMP signaling pathways in neurons. In a murine chronic restraint stress model, neuronal RyR2 were phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA), oxidized, and nitrosylated, resulting in depletion of the stabilizing subunit calstabin2 (FKBP12.6) from the channel complex and intracellular calcium leak. Stress-induced cognitive dysfunction, including deficits in learning and memory, and reduced long-term potentiation (LTP) at the hippocampal CA3-CA1 connection were rescued by oral administration of S107, a compound developed in our laboratory that stabilizes RyR2-calstabin2 interaction, or by genetic ablation of the RyR2 PKA phosphorylation site at serine 2808. Thus, neuronal RyR2 remodeling contributes to stress-induced cognitive dysfunction. Leaky RyR2 could be a therapeutic target for treatment of stress-induced cognitive dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Disruption of the sarcolemma-associated dystrophin-glycoprotein complex underlies multiple forms of muscular dystrophy, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy and sarcoglycanopathies. A hallmark of these disorders is muscle weakness. In a murine model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, mdx mice, cysteine-nitrosylation of the calcium release channel/ryanodine receptor type 1 (RyR1) on the skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum causes depletion of the stabilizing subunit calstabin1 (FKBP12) from the RyR1 macromolecular complex. This results in a sarcoplasmic reticular calcium leak via defective RyR1 channels. This pathological intracellular calcium leak contributes to reduced calcium release and decreased muscle force production. It is unknown whether RyR1 dysfunction occurs also in other muscular dystrophies. METHODS To test this we used a murine model of Limb-Girdle muscular dystrophy, deficient in β-sarcoglycan (Sgcb-/-). RESULTS Skeletal muscle RyR1 from Sgcb-/- deficient mice were oxidized, nitrosylated, and depleted of the stabilizing subunit calstabin1, which was associated with increased open probability of the RyR1 channels. Sgcb-/- deficient mice exhibited decreased muscle specific force and calcium transients, and displayed reduced exercise capacity. Treating Sgcb-/- mice with the RyR stabilizing compound S107 improved muscle specific force, calcium transients, and exercise capacity. We have previously reported similar findings in mdx mice, a murine model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. CONCLUSIONS Our data suggest that leaky RyR1 channels may underlie multiple forms of muscular dystrophy linked to mutations in genes encoding components of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex. A common underlying abnormality in calcium handling indicates that pharmacological targeting of dysfunctional RyR1 could be a novel therapeutic approach to improve muscle function in Limb-Girdle and Duchenne muscular dystrophies.

Abstract
Age-related loss of muscle mass and force (sarcopenia) contributes to disability and increased mortality. Ryanodine receptor 1 (RyR1) is the skeletal muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release channel required for muscle contraction. RyR1 from aged (24 months) rodents was oxidized, cysteine-nitrosylated, and depleted of the channel-stabilizing subunit calstabin1, compared to RyR1 from younger (3-6 months) adults. This RyR1 channel complex remodeling resulted in "leaky" channels with increased open probability, leading to intracellular calcium leak in skeletal muscle. Similarly, 6-month-old mice harboring leaky RyR1-S2844D mutant channels exhibited skeletal muscle defects comparable to 24-month-old wild-type mice. Treating aged mice with S107 stabilized binding of calstabin1 to RyR1, reduced intracellular calcium leak, decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS), and enhanced tetanic Ca(2+) release, muscle-specific force, and exercise capacity. Taken together, these data indicate that leaky RyR1 contributes to age-related loss of muscle function.

Abstract
RATIONALE Mutations in the cardiac type 2 ryanodine receptor (RyR2) have been linked to catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). CPVT-associated RyR2 mutations cause fatal ventricular arrhythmias in young individuals during β-adrenergic stimulation. OBJECTIVE This study sought to determine the effects of a novel RyR2-G230C mutation and whether this mutation and RyR2-P2328S alter the sensitivity of the channel to luminal calcium (Ca(2+)). METHODS AND RESULTS Functional characterizations of recombinant human RyR2-G230C channels were performed under conditions mimicking stress. Human RyR2 mutant channels were generated by site-directed mutagenesis and heterologously expressed in HEK293 cells together with calstabin2. RyR2 channels were measured to examine the regulation of the channels by cytosolic versus luminal sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+). A 50-year-old white man with repeated syncopal episodes after exercise had a cardiac arrest and harbored the mutation RyR2-G230C. cAMP-dependent protein kinase-phosphorylated RyR2-G230C channels exhibited a significantly higher open probability at diastolic Ca(2+) concentrations, associated with a depletion of calstabin2. The luminal Ca(2+) sensitivities of RyR2-G230C and RyR2-P2328S channels were WT-like. CONCLUSIONS The RyR2-G230C mutant exhibits similar biophysical defects compared with previously characterized CPVT mutations: decreased binding of the stabilizing subunit calstabin2 and a leftward shift in the Ca(2+) dependence for activation under conditions that simulate exercise, consistent with a "leaky" channel. Both RyR2-G230C and RyR2-P2328S channels exhibit normal luminal Ca(2+) activation. Thus, diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+) leak caused by reduced calstabin2 binding and a leftward shift in the Ca(2+) dependence for activation by diastolic levels of cytosolic Ca(2+) is a common mechanism underlying CPVT.
