Background: Recent advances in single cell sequencing have led to an increased focus on the role of cell-type composition in phenotypic presentation and disease progression. Cell-type composition research in the heart is challenging due to large, frequently multinucleated cardiomyocytes that preclude most single cell approaches from obtaining accurate measurements of cell composition. Our studies reveal that ignoring cell type composition when calculating differentially expressed genes (DEGs) can have significant consequences.

Aims: The majority of people with diabetes are susceptible to cardiac dysfunction and heart failure, and conventional drug therapy cannot correct the progression of diabetic cardiomyopathy. We assessed the potential role and therapeutic value of LGR6 (G protein-coupled receptor containing leucine-rich repeats 6) in diabetic cardiomyopathy.
Methods And Results: Type 2 diabetes models were established using high-fat diet/streptozotocin-induced diabetes in mice.

Noonan syndrome patients harboring causative variants in LZTR1 are particularly at risk to develop severe and early-onset hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. In this study, we investigate the mechanistic consequences of a homozygous variant LZTR1 by using patient-specific and CRISPR-Cas9-corrected induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) cardiomyocytes. Molecular, cellular, and functional phenotyping in combination with in silico prediction identify an LZTR1-specific disease mechanism provoking cardiac hypertrophy.

Factors responsible for cardiomyocyte proliferation could serve as potential therapeutics to stimulate endogenous myocardial regeneration following insult, such as ischemic injury. A previously published forward genetics approach on cardiomyocyte cell cycle and ploidy led us to the transcription factor, . Here, we examine the effect of on cardiomyocyte cell cycle during postnatal development and cardiac regeneration using cardiomyocyte-specific gain- and loss-of-function mouse models.
