Effects of Post-Myocardial Infarction Heart Failure on the Bone Vascular Niche (Mouse Data)
We demonstrate an age-independent loss of type H bone endothelium in heart failure after myocardial infarction in both mice and in humans. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we delineate the transcriptional heterogeneity of human bone marrow endothelium showing increased expression of inflammatory genes, including IL1B and MYC, in ischemic heart failure. Endothelial-specific overexpression of MYC was sufficient to induce type H bone endothelial cells, whereas inhibition of NLRP3-dependent IL-1 production partially prevents the post-myocardial infarction loss of type H vasculature in mice.
