Plasma and Myocardial miRNomes Similarities and Differences during Cardiac Remodelling and Reverse Remodelling in a Murine Model of Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogeneous syndrome characterized by multiple risk factors and associated conditions. HFpEF prevalence is rising, and its prognosis remains poor after the first hospitalization. Using a two-hit HFpEF murine model, we aimed at studying cardiac reverse remodelling after stopping the causing stress (Angiotensin II [AngII]) and a high-fat diet [HFD]; MHS) and introducing voluntary exercise. We studied in young male and female C57Bl6/J mice fed or not with an HFD (60% calories from fat) the cardiac response to AngII (1.5 mg/kg/day for 28 days). Then, MHS was stopped, and VE was started for another four weeks (RR). We studied the effects of MHS and RR on the circulatory microRNA (miR) profile (miRNome) and the myocardial miRNome to characterize the cardiac and non-cardiac response of small RNAs. AngII alone and MHS but not the HFD caused cardiac hypertrophy (CH), left ventricular (LV) concentric remodelling and left atrial enlargement in male mice. HFD-induced CH and LV concentric remodelling only in female mice. Four weeks after RR, CH, LV concentric remodelling and atrial enlargement were reversed. We performed bulk circulatory and LV miR sequencing. We did not observe differences linked to biological sex. RR restored normality for circulatory miRNome, whereas LV miRNome remained relatively similar to the one after MHS. Among the 25 most abundant circulatory miRs, ten were modulated by MHS (9 upregulated). In the LV, 8 of the 25 most abundant miR were upregulated by MHS, and 10 were downregulated. MiRNomes from AngII, HFD or MHS shared many common modulated miRs (32), suggesting that the overall response of organs producing the bulk of circulatory small non-coding RNA was similar even for seemingly different stress.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
