LIPTER, a cardiomyocyte-enriched long noncoding RNA, controls cardiac cytoskeletal maturation and is regulated by a cardiomyocyte-specific enhancer
Bibliographic record
Abstract
ABSTRACT Cardiac development is characterized by a complex series of molecular, cytoskeletal and electrophysiological changes that guarantee the proper functioning of adult cardiomyocytes (CMs). These changes are defined by cell-type-specific transcriptional rewiring of progenitor cells to form CMs, and are regulated by various epigenetic elements, such as long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). LncRNAs are versatile epigenetic regulators as they may act in cis or in trans to orchestrate important gene programs during cardiac development and may concurrently encode micropeptides. LIPTER is one such lncRNA, previously shown to regulate lipid droplet transport in cardiomyocytes and thus an important regulator of cardiomyocyte metabolism. Here we show that LIPTER also plays a role in the cytoskeletal maturation of CMs, as loss of LIPTER leads to persistent expression of fetal genes, changes in chromatin accessibility, disorganized sarcomeres and impaired calcium homeostasis in CMs. Furthermore, we have identified a cardiomyocyte-specific regulatory enhancer that regulates the expression of LIPTER in CMs. CRISPR-mediated inhibition of this enhancer led to reduced LIPTER expression in CMs and increased expression of fetal genes. This CM-specific enhancer could therefore be manipulated to control the expression of LIPTER for therapeutic benefit. In summary, we have unravelled a novel role of LIPTER in CMs’ cytoskeletal maturation and have identified a CM-specific enhancer for LIPTER .

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.
