Summary (written by the submitters)
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a severe, non-ischemic heart disease, which ultimately results in heart failure (HF). Pathological genetic variants in LMNA cause DCM, which currently lacks specific treatment. Perturbing candidates related to dysregulated pathways have shown to ameliorate LMNA DCM, but their long-term efficacy as potential therapeutic targets is unknown.

Here, we evaluated 14 potential candidates including Lmna gene products, key signaling pathways, calcium handling, proliferation regulators and Lamin interacting proteins, in a cardiac-specific Lmna DCM model. The candidates with improved cardiac function were further assessed through survival analysis. After comparing cardiac function, marker gene expression, Tgfβ signaling pathway activation, fibrosis, inflammation, proliferation, and DNA damage, we uncovered that restored cardiac function significantly correlated with suppression of HF/fibrosis marker expression and cardiac fibrosis in Lmna DCM. Interestingly, Lamin C or Sun1 shRNA administration achieved consistent, prolonged survival which highly correlated with reduced heart inflammation and DNA damage. In addition to Sun1 shRNA, perturbing the interaction between the nucleoskeleton and cytoskeleton via the KASH domain of Nesprin1 also effectively suppressed Lmna DCM. In contrast, Lamin A supplementation did not rescue long term survival and may impart a detrimental cardiotoxicity risk. Furthermore, transcriptome profiling was used to compare the differences between Lamin A and Lamin C treatment. Mechanistically, we identified that this lapse was attributed to a dose-dependent toxicity of Lamin A, which was independent of its maturation. This study highlights the potential for advancing Lamin C and Sun1 as therapeutic targets for the treatment of LMNA DCM.

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE240745_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1005183 and SRA study SRP454966. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
