项目摘要

Pregestational maternal diabetes is a noninherited factor associated with a fivefold increase in congenital heart defects (CHDs). The second heart field (SHF) progenitors, marked by Isl1, drive the heart tube extension during looping morphogenesis and cardiac chamber formation. The underlying mechanism of diabetes-induced CHDs is unknown but one mechanism may involve the inhibition of Isl1+ SHF progenitor-driven cardiogenesis by maternal diabetes. During the last decade, we have focused on the biology and regenerative capability of cardiac progenitors in CHD patients. It is critical to determine the biological effects of diabetes in vivo and high glucose in vitro on Isl1+ progenitors during embryogenesis and postnatally in order to maximize their regenerative and protective potentials in CHD patients. Therefore, our overarching hypothesis that hyperglycemia of maternal diabetes induces Isl1+ SHF progenitor dysfunction during the critical period of cardiac development through heightened oxidative stress, activation of the major UPR sensor IRE1α and its downstream transcription factor XBP1, which is responsible for DNA hypermethylation and SHF gene silencing leading to repression of RNA methyltransferase METTL14 and m6A RNA methylation. Suppressing cellular stress or modulating DNA/RNA methylation ameliorates defects in SHF progenitors, CHD formation and potential regenerative capacity of these progenitors. Aim 1 will determine whether hyperglycemia of maternal diabetes induces Isl1+ SHF progenitor dysfunction during heart development through oxidative stress. We hypothesize that diabetes causes mitochondrial dysfunction and during cardiac morphogenesis through the induction of oxidative stress and that mitigation of oxidative stress by superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) alleviates CHD formation in diabetic pregnancy. Aim 2 will determine the role of the major UPR sensor IRE1α and its downstream effector XBP1 in Isl1+ SHF progenitors leading to CHDs in diabetic pregnancy. We will test the hypothesis that oxidative stress is responsible for ER stress and UPR in Isl1+ SHF progenitors and that suppressing the ER stress-UPR pathway by inactivating either the major UPR sensor IRE1α or its downstream transcription factor XBP1 reduces diabetes-induced CHDs. Aim 3 will determine whether DNA methyltransferases-suppressed RNA methylation in Isl1+ SHF progenitors contributes to diabetes- induced CHDs and the therapeutic implications of these progenitors. We expect that that increased DNA methylation represses RNA methyltransferase-like 14 (METTL14) and RNA N(6)-methyladenosine (m6A) essential for Isl1+ progenitor function and that reducing DNA methylation or restoring RNA methylation specifically in Isl1+ progenitors reduces CHDs and increases the therapeutic values of these cells.

孕前母亲糖尿病是一种非遗传因素，与先天性心脏病 (CHD) 增加五倍相关。以 Isl1 为标记的第二心区 (SHF) 祖细胞在循环形态发生和心室形成过程中驱动心管延伸。糖尿病引起的 CHD 的潜在机制尚不清楚，但一种机制可能涉及母亲糖尿病对 Isl1+ SHF 祖细胞驱动的心脏发生的抑制。在过去的十年中，我们一直专注于先心病患者心脏祖细胞的生物学和再生能力。确定体内糖尿病和体外高葡萄糖对胚胎发生和出生后 Isl1+ 祖细胞的生物学影响至关重要，以便最大限度地发挥其在 CHD 患者中的再生和保护潜力。因此，我们的总体假设是，母亲糖尿病的高血糖通过增强氧化应激、激活主要 UPR 传感器 IRE1α 及其下游转录因子 XBP1（导致 DNA 高甲基化和 SHF 基因沉默，导致 RNA 甲基转移酶抑制），在心脏发育的关键时期诱导 Isl1+ SHF 祖细胞功能障碍。 METTL14 和 m6A RNA 甲基化。抑制细胞应激或调节 DNA/RNA 甲基化可改善 SHF 祖细胞的缺陷、CHD 形成以及这些祖细胞的潜在再生能力。目标 1 将确定母亲糖尿病的高血糖是否会通过氧化应激在心脏发育过程中诱导 Isl1+ SHF 祖细胞功能障碍。我们假设糖尿病通过诱导氧化应激导致线粒体功能障碍和心脏形态发生过程中的线粒体功能障碍，并且超氧化物歧化酶 1 (SOD1) 减轻氧化应激可减轻糖尿病妊娠期间冠心病的形成。目标 2 将确定主要 UPR 传感器 IRE1α 及其下游效应器 XBP1 在 Isl1+ SHF 祖细胞中的作用，导致糖尿病妊娠中的冠心病。我们将检验以下假设：氧化应激是 Isl1+ SHF 祖细胞中 ER 应激和 UPR 的原因，并且通过失活主要 UPR 传感器 IRE1α 或其下游转录因子 XBP1 来抑制 ER 应激-UPR 通路，可减少糖尿病诱发的 CHD。目标 3 将确定 Isl1+ SHF 祖细胞中 DNA 甲基转移酶抑制的 RNA 甲基化是否会导致糖尿病诱发的 CHD 以及这些祖细胞的治疗意义。我们预计DNA甲基化的增加会抑制Isl1+祖细胞功能所必需的RNA甲基转移酶样14 (METTL14)和RNA N(6)-甲基腺苷(m6A)，并且减少Isl1+祖细胞中的DNA甲基化或恢复RNA甲基化可减少CHD并增加这些细胞的治疗价值。
