Description:
DIAGNOSTIC, PROGNOSTIC AND THERAPEUTIC USES OF LONG

NONCODING RNAs FOR PATHOLOGIES AND TOXICITIES INDUCING HEART

DISORDERS CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the benefit and priority of United States provisional application 62/518,418, filed on June 12, 2017.

The present invention provides new biomarkers and methods for the diagnosing, monitoring and prognostication of primary and secondary cardiac disorders in a subject based on IncRNA expression. The invention also provides methods for predicting heart failure (HF) after myocardial infarction, or differentiation between Ischemic (ICM) versus non-ischemic (Non- ICM) HF (e.g., dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM)). The assessment/quantification of these IncRNAs in a single mode or in combination with other IncRNAs can also be used as a marker for monitoring drug-induced cardiac toxicities and for the assessment of cardiac involvement during systemic diseases and others disorders/toxicities impacting cardiac function. These IncRNAs are cardiac tissue enriched and may be involved in different pathophysiological events pertaining to cardiac function and represent a potential target for therapeutic approaches. These therapeutic approaches may be inhibitors or activators of these IncRNAs or the products activated or inhibited by these IncRNAs.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides a list of cardiac associated or cardiac-enriched IncRNAs and methods for monitoring and diagnosing cardiac disorders in a subject based on IncRNA expression. The invention also provides methods for diagnosing different types of HF such as ICM versus Non-ICM (e.g., DCM), methods for predicting HF after myocardial infarction, and for monitoring treatment efficacy and drug-induced cardiac toxicities.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In recent years, long non-coding RNA (IncRNAs) have emerged as a new type of non-coding RNA and many studies have shown their potential as powerful biomarkers in various pathologies such as cancer. In contrast to other non-coding R A such as miRNA or snoRNA, IncRNA lack strong whole sequence conservation across different species but rather appear to contain short, highly conserved elements. Despite only a few IncRNA having been shown to be biologically relevant and functionally annotated, there's growing evidence that the majority of them are likely to be functional. While the exact function of most IncRNAs remain unknown, they have been implicated in various biological processes, mainly relating to transcriptional, post- transcriptional and epigenetic regulation. The majority of IncRNAs to date, that are functionally characterized, are believed to regulate developmental processes. However, recent profiling of the mice cardiac transcriptome, after myocardial infarction in mice cardiac tissue, has shown their role in controlling mature tissue as well as the relevance of their expression level in cardiac pathologies. There are publications which have argued for apparent similar roles of certain IncRNAs in humans e.g., WO2015092020,

Cardiac disorders such as coronary artery disease (CAD), acute myocardial infarcation (AMI) and heart failure (HF) are leading causes of mortality and morbidity in the world and cardiac toxicities such as those induced by drugs and drug candidates are the most important cause of drug withdrawal. Thus, there is a very important unmet medical need for diverse types of biomarkers for assessing cardiac function, including but not limited to diagnosis, prognosis, monitoring of drug effects and diseases activity. Several cardiac pathologies remain still incurable or need less aggressive and more personalized treatment. IncRNA represent a novel family of targets useful for these diagnostic and therapeutic applications in the cardiovascular area. The present invention relates to IncRNAs that are cardiac enriched and described for the first time in human cardiac tissues. They represent good therapeutic and diagnostic candidates for cardiac related disorders. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Given that expression levels of IncRNAs could be associated with heart disease in human cardiac biopsies, the inventors set out to characterize IncRNA specifically relevant to cardiac tissue and involved in cardiac remodeling.

The present invention relates to IncRNAs having a sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO I to SEQ ID NO 3238 (Human sequences) isoforms thereof, fragments thereof and variant sharing at least 80% nucleotide sequence homology (hereinafter named "IncRNA of the invention") suitable for the diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring of subjects suffering from cardiovascular disorders.

In particular, the invention provides a method for diagnosing and monitoring cardiac disorders, the method comprising determining the level of expression, in a biological sample derived from said subject, of one or more IncRNAs of the invention and calculating differential expression of one of more IncRNAs of the invention compared to one or more IncRNA in a biological sample from a control subject, wherein differential expression of one or more IncRNAs of the invention indicates that the subject has developed or is at risk of developing a cardiac disorder. This method of the invention is also suitable for the prognostication of cardiac disorders. In another aspect, the invention provides a method for predicting the development of heart failure (HF) in a subject having suffered myocardial infarction, a method for monitoring treatment efficacy in a subject suffering from cardiac injury and receiving a pharmaceutical cardiac therapy, a method for evaluating drug-induced cardiac toxicity in a subject receiving an effective amount of pharmaceutical composition, a method for diagnosing ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) in a subject, a method for diagnosing dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in a subject, a method for differentiating ICM vs Non-ICM (e.g., DCM) in subjects suffering heart failure, the methods comprising determining the level of expression, in a biological sample derived from said subject, of one or more IncRNAs of the invention and calculating differential expression of one of more IncRNAs of the invention compared to one or more IncRNA in a biological sample from a control subject.

In another aspect, the invention concerns a diagnostic/prognostic kit for carrying out any of the before cited methods.

In still another aspect, the present invention provides a method for treating a cardiac pathology in a subject comprising administering to said subject an effective amount of a pharmaceutical agent modulating the expression of one or more IncRNAs of the invention.

It yet another aspect, the invention provides for a method of detecting one or more IncRNAs (e.g., IncRNAs having a sequence selected from the group consting of SEQ ID NO 1 to SEQ ID NO 3238). In one aspect, the method comprises the step of obtaining the IncRNA from a human biological sample (e.g., a human plasma sample). In still another aspect, the invention provides a method of obtaining one or more IncR As, wherein the method comprises selection and isolation of total RNA. In one aspect, the IncRNA is correlated with the risk or development of a cardiac disorder. In one aspect the IncRNA is obtained from a biological sample (e.g., a cardiac biopsy or blood sample (e.g., plasma sample)).

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGURES

Figure 1 shows the sequencing data analysis and the selection procedure of known IncRNA relevant to the cardiac pathologies.

Figure 2 shows the sequencing data analysis and the selection procedure of novel identified IncRNA relevant to the cardiac pathologies.

Figures 3A and 3B show the correlation between results obtained by sequencing with both Cuffdiff (middle bar) and DeSeq (right bar) analysis and results obtained by PCR (left bar) on patients of the same conditions. Figure 3A compares ICM and Control. Figure 3B compares DCM and Control. Figure 4 shows the expression of 4 IncRNA in human plasma samples as analyzed by qRT- PCR after preamplification: AMI indicated by a square and Control indicated by a circle.

Figure 5 shows a histogram with the number of IncRNA, which passed the different threshold of coverage depth (in horizontal axis). In total RNA-seq protocol (left bar), half of 3238 IncRNA have an average coverage depth less than 2x. In FiMICS (targeted sequencing) protocol (right bar), more than 3000 IncRNA have at least an average coverage depth of 2x.

Figure 6 shows Venn diagram of the significantly expressed IncRNAs from analysis of RNASeq and FiMICS data generated in serum samples collected at D3 of patients with AMI for the prediction of ventricular remodeling measured by the Echocardiography at month 1 post PCI. Low LVEF corresponding to the ventricular remodeling is grouped using two thresholds: either LVEF <40% or 45%. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The Inventors intended to characterize the cardiac long non-coding transcriptome and more particularly the dynamically modulated fraction after left ventricular remodeling. The Inventors performed deep RNA- sequencing of cardiac biopsies coupled to novel transcript reconstruction and integration in genome-wide data sets as well as previously characterized predicted human cardiac-specific IncR A to systematically identify and annotate heart-specific IncR As.

Surprisingly, it has been found that the IncRNAs of the invention are highly cardiac and context specific, thus providing a high potential as biomarkers of cardiac disorders as well as pathological response and physiological homeostasis. In addition, using novel transcripts reconstruction, novel IncRNA never described before that are cardiac-enriched and differentially expressed in cardiomyopathies have been found.These findings have been validated by comparing their RNA-Seq data with qPCR data from patients suffering the same conditions. A number of these human IncRNAs are detected in human plasma samples, supporting the feasibility of measuring their expression in patient biofluids for diagnosis and prognosis purposes. Furthermore, the inventors have identified IncRNAs which are differentially expressed in blood sample between the low LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction) group and the high LVEF group after PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention). Collectively, a novel panel of heart-specific IncRNAs with unique prognosis value relevant to cardiac disorders has been found. As used herein, a control sample refers to a biological sample such as tissue or cells (e.g., blood sample) from a normal subject (e.g. an individual who does not have cardiac disease or any condition or symptom associated with).

As used herein, "identity" refers to the sequence matching between two polypeptides, molecules or between two nucleic acids. When a position in both of the two compared sequences is occupied by the same base or amino acid monomer subunit (for instance, if a position in each of the two DNA molecules is occupied by adenine, or a position in each of two polypeptides is occupied by a lysine), then the respective molecules are identical at that position. The "percentage identity" between two sequences is a function of the number of matching positions shared by the two sequences divided by the number of positions compared times 100. Such alignment can be provided using, for instance, the program Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) from the National Center for Biotechnology Information NCBI.

The one or more IncRNAs, fragments thereof, isoforms thereof and variants sharing at least 80% nucleotide sequence identity thereto listed in Table 1 are not part of the present invention. The sequences of these one or more IncRNAs, excluded from the present invention, are described in PCT/EP2014/078868 (Universite de Lausanne) and in filed in ST25 format.

In some embodiments, the IncRNA which is detected is selected from any of SEQ ID NO: 1 - SEQ ID NO: 3238.

In some embodiments, the IncRNA which is detected is selected from the group consisting of:

(i) 15 IncRNAs of SEQ ID 1204, SEQ ID 1736, SEQ ID 0544, SEQ ID 0915, SEQ ID2368, SEQ ID 1595, SEQ ID 2382, SEQ ID 0859, SEQ ID 3112, SEQ ID 1869, SEQ ID 1406, SEQ ID 0043, SEQ ID 0363, SEQ ID 0069 and SEQ ID 1947; (ii) 11 IncRNAs of SEQ ID 2373, SEQ ID 1748, SEQ ID 3112, SEQ ID 1231, SEQ ID 0664, SEQ ID 1686, SEQ ID 0791, SEQ ID 2126, SEQ ID 2750, SEQ ID 3010, and SEQ ID 2241;

(vii) 4 IncRNAs of SEQ0097, SEQ 1947, SEQ 1051 and SEQ2996; and

(viii) IncRNAs in Table 4, Table 5, Table 8, Table 9, Table 12, Table 15, Table 18, Table 19, Table 20, Table 21, Table 22, Table 24, Table 25, Table 28, Table 29, Table 32, Table 33, Table 34, Table 35, Table 36, Table 37, Table 38, Table 39, Table 40, and/or Table 41.

As used herein, a biological sample may be any sample that may be taken from a subject, such as whole blood, serum, plasma, semen, saliva, tears, urine, fecal material, sweat, buccal smears, skin, cardiac tissue, liver, brain tissue, amniotic fluid, nerve tissue and hair. It also includes specific cellular subtypes or derivatives extracted from those such as PBMCs. The sample used in this invention is preferably blood or cardia tissue, more preferably blood, e.g., serum.

The expression level of IncRNAs may be determined by any technology known by a man skilled in the art. In particular, the expression level of IncRNAs is determined by measuring the amount of nucleic acid transcripts of each IncRNA. The amount of nucleic acid transcripts can be measured by any technology known by a man skilled in the art. The measure may be carried out directly on an extracted RNA sample or on retrotranscribed complementary DNA (cDNA) prepared from extracted RNA by technologies well-known in the art. From the RNA or cDNA sample, the amount of nucleic acid transcripts may be measured using any technology known by a man skilled in the art, including nucleic acid microarrays, quantitative PCR, sequencing (e.g., next generation sequencing), and hybridization with a labeled probe. In some embodiments, the expression level of IncRNAs is determined using sequencing, e.g., next generation sequencing. Sequencing may be carried out after converting extracted RNA to cDNA using reverse transcriptase or RNA molecules may be directly sequenced. In a particular embodiment, which should not be considered as limiting the scope of the invention, the measurement of the expression level using next generation sequencing may be performed as follows. Briefly, RNA is extracted from a sample (e.g., blood sample). After removing rRNA, RNA samples are then reverse transcribed into cDNA. To ensure strand specificity, single stranded cDNA is first synthetized using Super-Script II reverse transcriptase and random primers in the presence of Actinomycin D, and then converted to double stranded cDNA with the second strand marking mix that incorporates dUTP in place of dTTP.

Resulting blunt ended cDNA are purified using AMPure XP magnetic beads. After a 3 'end adenylation step, adaptor is attached to cDNA. So obtained cDNA (sequencing library) may be amplified by PCR. The sequencing libraries can be sequenced by any next generation sequencing technology known by a man skilled in the art.

In some embodiments, the measurement of the expression level of IncRNAs, e.g., by sequening (e.g., next generation sequencing), is facilitated by capturing and enriching nucleic acids (RNA or cDNA) corresponding to IncRNAs of interest prior to the measurement. As used herein, enrichment refers to increasing the percentage of the nucleic acids of interest in the sample relative to the initial sample by selectively purifying the nucleic acids of interest. The enrichment of nucleic acids corresponding to IncRNAs of interest can be carried out on extracted RNA sample or cDNA sample prepared from extracted RNA. In some

embodiments, nucleic acids corresponding to IncRNAs of interest are captured and enriched by hybridizing RNA or cDNA sample to oligonucleotide probes specific to IncRNAs of interest (e.g. oligonucleotide probes comprising a sequence complementary to a region of IncRNAs of interest) under conditions allowing for hybridization of the probes and target nucleic acids to form probe-target nucleic acid complexes. Probes may be DNA or RNA, preferably DNA. The length of probes may be from 30 to 80 nucleotides, e.g., from 40 to 70, from 40 to 60, or about 50 nucleotides. The probe-target nucleic acid complexes can be purified by any technology known by a man skilled in the art. In a preferred embodiment, probes are biotinylated. The biotinylated probe-target nucleic acid complexes can be purified by using a streptavidin-coated substrate, e.g, a streptavidin-coated magnetic particle, e.g., Tl streptavidin coated magnetic bead.

In some embodiments, the expression level of IncRNAs may be determined using quantitative PCR. Quantitative, or real-time, PCR is a well known and easily available technology for those skilled in the art and does not need a precise description. In a particular embodiment, which should not be considered as limiting the scope of the invention, the determination of the expression profile using quantitative PCR may be performed as follows. Briefly, the realtime PCR reactions are carried out using the TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix (Applied Biosystems). 6 μΐ cDNA is added to a 9 μΐ PCR mixture containing 7.5 μΐ TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix, 0.75 μΐ of a 20X mixture of probe and primers and 0.75μ1 water. The reaction consisted of one initiating step of 2 min at 50 deg. C, followed by 10 min at 95 deg. C, and 40 cycles of amplification including 15 sec at 95 deg. C and 1 min at 60 deg. C. The reaction and data acquisition can be performed using the ABI 7900HT Fast Real-Time PCR System (Applied Biosystems). The number of template transcript molecules in a sample is determined by recording the amplification cycle in the exponential phase (cycle threshold or CQ or CT), at which time the fluorescence signal can be detected above background fluorescence. Thus, the starting number of template transcript molecules is inversely related to

In some embodiments, the expression level of IncRNAs may be determined by the use of a nucleic acid microarray. A nucleic acid microarray consists of different nucleic acid probes that are attached to a substrate, which can be a microchip, a glass slide or a microsphere-sized bead. A microchip may be constituted of polymers, plastics, resins, polysaccharides, silica or silica-based materials, carbon, metals, inorganic glasses, or nitrocellulose. Probes can be nucleic acids such as cDNAs ("cDNA microarray") or oligonucleotides ("oligonucleotide microarray"), and the oligonucleotides may be about 25 to about 60 base pairs or less in length. To determine the expression profile of a target nucleic acid sample, said sample is labelled, contacted with the microarray in hybridization conditions, leading to the formation of complexes between target nucleic acids that are complementary to probe sequences attached to the microarray surface. The presence of labelled hybridized complexes is then detected. Many variants of the microarray hybridization technology are available to the man skilled in the art.

EXAMPLES

Example 1 Identification of IncRNAs of the invention

The inventors incorporate deep RNA- sequencing of cardiac biopsies starting from total RNA to characterize both coding and non-coding transcriptomes and identify cardiac relevant lncRNA through a multistep analysis procedure. The Inventors use differential expression analysis as well as novel transcript reconstruction and data integration into genome-wide data sets as well as previously characterized predicted human cardiac-specific lncRNA to systematically identify heart-specific IncRNAs. Using the aforementioned techniques, the Inventors can identify 3,238 IncRNAs potentially relevant to cardiac disorders. Indeed, hundreds of known lncRNA are differentially expressed in a control subject compared to a subject suffering from ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathies. The Inventors are able to determine that 1027 novel IncRNAs, including some orthologs predicted in the art, that are differentially expressed and/or cardiac-enriched.

Sample collection

Cardiac biopsies are obtained from 5 control patients, 11 patients suffering ICM and 10 patients suffering DCM. Biopsies of control hearts are provided from subjects with either head injury (n=2) or subarachnoid haemorrhage (n=3). The protocol is approved by the Local Ethics Committee at Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski Institute of Cardiology (approval number IK-NP- 0021-48/846/13 (April 09, 2013). No donors or their relatives completed the National Refusal List. Heart biopsies obtained from the left ventricle are snap-frozen and stored at -80°C until RNA isolation.

RNA isolation

Total RNA is extracted from cardiac biopsies using the mirVana isolation kit (Life technologies, Merelbeke, Belgium). Potential contaminating genomic DNA is digested with DNase I (Qiagen, Venlo, The Netherlands). RNA concentration is measured with a Nanodrop spectrophotometer (Nanodrop products, Wilmington, USA) and RNA integrity is verified using a 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent technologies, Santa Clara, USA).

Biopsies sequencing

Sequencing libraries are prepared from O^g of total RNA using the Illumina TruSeq stranded total RNA library preparation kit combined with the human/mouse/rat RiboZero rRNA removal kit (Illumina Inc. San Diego, USA, C). All steps are performed with the low-throughput protocol and according to the manufacturer's instructions. Briefly, cytoplasmic rRNA are hybridized to biotinylated target-specific oligos and removed using streptavidin coated magnetic beads. rRNA depleted RNA samples are then fragmented by heat digestion with divalent cations (8 minutes, 94°C) and reverse transcribed into cDNA. To ensure strand specificity, single stranded cDNA is first synthetized using Super-Script II reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen) and random primers in the presence of Actinomycin D, and then converted to double stranded cDNA with the second strand marking mix that incorporates dUTP in place of dTTP. Resulting blunt ended cDNA are purified using AMPure XP magnetic beads. After a 3 'end adenylation step, Illumina's adapters ligation is performed. The singled indexed libraries thus obtained are washed twice using AMPure XP beads to remove excess adapters and enriched by PCR (15 cycles). PCR products are purified with a final AMPure XP beads wash and sequencing ready libraries are eluted in 30μ1 of resuspension buffer.

For quality control, Ιμΐ of each library is run on the Agilent Technologies 2100 Bioanalyzer using a DNA 1000 chip according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Absence of adapter dimers is checked and the average library size is determined by a region table. Libraries are quantified by qPCR using the KAPA Library quantification kit for Illumina Platforms (KAPAbiosystems,). Samples are run in duplicate and quantified against a standard curve ranging from 20 to 2.10-4 pM. Library size previously determined on the Bioanalyzer is used for size correction of the calculated concentrations.

All libraries are sequenced with the Illumina NextSeq500 (2x75bp).

Sequencing analysis for known transcripts

All RNA-seq reads of 26 samples are aligned to human reference genome (hgl9) using Tophat 2.1.0 (1). Bowtie index of UCSC reference sequences are downloaded from Illumina iGenomes. The transcript assembly is performed using cufflinks 2.2.1 (1) with -G option and the featureCounts function of Rsubread R package (2). The GTF file is generated by integrating GENCODE comprehensive gene annotation release 19 (3) and human IncRNAs identified by Ounzain et al. (4). Cuffdiff (1) and DESeq2 (5) are respectively used for differential expression analysis. Transcripts with an adjusted p-value < 0.05 between controls and failing hearts, or with a p-value < 0.05 between ICM and DCM are considered to be differentially expressed. Pipeline of novel IncRNA prediction

De novo transcript assembly

RABT (Reference Annotation Based Transcript) assembly (6) is performed using cufflinks with -g option for 3 control samples, 3 ICM samples and 3 DCM samples. The GTF file is the same as the one used for known transcripts. The cuffcompare (1) program is used to compare the assembled transcripts to the reference annotated GTF file and to generate a new GTF file with all transcripts from 9 samples for further analysis.

Filtering for novel IncRNAs

Filtering is done on Transfrag class codes generated by cuffcompare, transcript length, number of exons and protein coding potential. Firstly, the transcripts with code 'i', 'j', Ό', V, 'x' and '.' are extracted, all of which could potentially include novel IncRNAs. The 'i' category, for example, could contain the IncRNAs entirely within the intron of known genes. Similarly, the 'j' category could be long non-coding isoforms of known genes. The Ό' category could include novel IncRNAs having generic exonic overlap with known transcripts. The 'u' category could be long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs). The 'x' category could contain novel IncRNAs on the opposite strand of reference genes. The '.' category may be sequences with multiple classifications. The combined GTF file is converted to a BED file using UCSC table browser (7). Following this, only the transcripts with a length of >200nt and with at least 2 exons are kept for the next step. Finally, the BED files of transcripts from the last 2 filtering steps are uploaded to CP AT (Coding-Potential Assessment Tool) (8) to calculate the coding potential score. The transcripts with CP AT scores < 0.364 are considered as non-coding. A new GTF file is generated with the final list of selected novel IncRNAs.

Differential expression of novel IncRNAs

The cuffdiff (1) is used for all 26 samples with the new GTF file of novel IncRNAs. Transcripts with an adjusted p-value < 0.05 are considered to be differentially expressed.

Analysis for public dataset

Fastq files of GSE45326 are downloaded from ArrayExpress (9). The dataset includes RNA- seq data of 12 normal human tissues. The paired-end sequencing is performed on ribominus total RNA library. Reads alignment and transcript assembly for known genes are performed as described before. Cufflinks (1) with the GTF file of novel IncR As is used to calculate FPKM of novel IncRNAs in each tissue. The transcripts with FPKM>1 and at least twice higher than the FPKM of any other tissues are considered as cardiac-enriched.

The selection of the IncRNA of the panel is a multistep procedure:

Known transcripts selection.

In a first step, the inventors focused on the identification of known IncRNA that are relevant to cardiac pathophysiology. After data alignment and transcript reconstruction using both Cufflink and features counts using Gencodel9, the authors used two distinct tools that use different approaches for differential expression analysis, respectively Cuffdiff and DeSeq2, and only transcripts showing high expression (fragments per kilobase of transcript per million mapped reads (FPKM) FPKM or FPM>1) in at least half the samples of one group are considered. Differential expression using both tools is analysed in controls vs ICM samples, controls vs DCM samples, as well as ICM vs DCM samples. 80 and 1193 differentially expressed transcripts between any of the groups are identified with Cuffdiff and DeSeq2 analysis respectively. This difference is mainly due to the low number of IncRNA flagged OK by Cuffdiff (ie, neither NOTEST nor HID AT A). As those excluded IncRNA are included in the DeSeq2 analysis, Cuffdiff default settings are not modified. Interestingly, we observed from the DeSeq2 analysis that even if the majority of differentially expressed transcripts in controls vs ICM samples are also differentially expressed in controls vs DCM samples (and vice versa), about one third of them are ICM or DCM specific, illustrating that as the coding transcriptome, the noncoding transcriptome shows features common to a common heart defect (cardiomyopathies) but also specific ones differentiating the physiological bases of this defect (ischemic vs non-ischemic). Moreover, 97 IncRNAs are also differentially expressed between ICM and DCM patients, differentiating the 2 pathologies. Similar observations are made from the Cuffdiff analysis.

The authors also focused on highly expressed non coding transcripts and thus selected 687 IncRNA having a FPKM or FPM>2 to include in the panel.

In summary, the authors identified 1,835 IncRNA corresponding to 1,501 genes, previously annotated in Gencodel9, as relevant for cardiac function.

Predicted human orthologs selection

In order to validate the relevance of the humans orthologs identified by Ounzain et al, the authors realized the same analysis using the GTF file containing the predicted human orthologs as reference for transcripts reconstruction. Surprisingly, the inventors identified few predicted orthologs that are expressed in human tissue: 86 corresponding to 77 genes. Among them, 75 are differentially expressed IncRNA across the control, ICM and DCM groups, 16 highly expressed (FPKM or FPM>2) IncRNA and 5 of them fitted the 2 criteria. This unexpected low amount of validated predicted human orthologs can in part be explained by the different sequencing approaches used in the 2 studies. Nonetheless, the so identified IncRNAs, shown to be highly tissue and context specific in mice and validated in human cardiac disorders appear to be promising bio marker candidates playing crucial roles in cardiac function regulation. Cardiac-enriched transcripts selection

As stated in the previous study from Ounzain et al, IncRNA regulating cardiac homeostasis identified in mice are highly context specific but also and importantly, cardiac tissue specific. This led us to look for non-coding transcripts that are enriched in the cardiac tissue compared to others and thus might play important roles in cardiac functions. By comparing public RNA- seq data from 12 human tissues (heart, brain, bladder, colon, breast, skin, lung, ovary, kidney, prostate, liver, muscle), the inventors identified 470 and 24 IncRNA, from known and Human predicted transcripts respectively, that had at least a 2 fold higher expression rate in cardiac tissue than in any other tissue.

Novel transcripts selection

The growing interest on IncRNA together with the development of next generation sequencing techniques over the past years has led to a better knowledge of these non-coding transcripts. Nonetheless, non-coding transcripts account for the majority of the human transcriptome and have so far not been completely characterized. The authors thus performed very deep sequencing to allow for discovery of novel transcripts. After de novo transcript reconstruction and transcript selection as detailed in the material and methods, the inventors can identify over 13,000 new transcripts with no coding potential. Among them, they can identify 696 IncRNA differentially expressed between the 3 groups (FDR<0.05) and 810 IncRNA enriched in cardiac tissue. The transcripts having class codes Ό', 'j' or 'i' and highly positively correlated with overlapped known genes are eliminated. ( category, for example, could contain the IncRNAs entirely within the intron of known genes, the 'j' category could be long non-coding iso forms of known genes and the Ό' category could include novel IncRNAs having generic exonic overlap with known transcripts). The transcripts with class codes 'j ' or Ό' and overlapping with exons of known protein-coding genes on the same strand are discarded. This resulted in a total number of novel IncRNAs of 755 relevant to cardiac physiology.

In summary, the inventors identified a highly relevant panel of 3,092 cardiac-related IncRNAs. This panel encompasses 2,317 known transcripts here shown to be relevant to cardiac physiology, as well as 755 IncRNA, here described for the first time and relevant to cardiac tissue.

EXAMPLE 2

LncRNA detection in plasma samples and PCR validation in biopsies

Sample selection: Mitocare Aidbank/

Like miRNA, IncRNA can be released from the original tissue into the body circulation. Thus such markers may be detected in body fluids like whole blood or plasma which facilitates their use in clinics. The expression of four IncRNA previously identified is verified in plasma samples from patients who suffered AMI versus control patients.

Plasma samples from 3 control subjects and 3 subjects who suffered AMI are used. RNA extraction is performed using Norgen Serum/plasma extraction kit according to the manufacturer's instructions. Isolated RNAs are then subjected to reverse transcription using the high capacity cDNA synthesis kit with the following thermal conditions: 25°C for 10 min, 37°C for 2 hours, 85°C for 5 min. Preamplification reactions are prepared using Applied Biosystems preamplication master mix with 0.1X (ΙΟΟηΜ) of each of the 4 primers pairs corresponding to the IncRNAs of interest (sequences listed below). 16 preamplification cycles are performed as recommended by the furnisher (50°C 2 minutes, 96°C 10 minutes, 40 cycles at 95°C for 15 seconds and 60°C for 1 minute). Preamplified products are then diluted 1/20 in TE buffer and quantified by qPCR using the Biorad Ssoadvanced SYBR green kit. Briefly, 15μ1 reactions containing 6ul of each diluted sample are amplified in a IX ready to use reaction mix containing 500μ1 of the diluted sample, IX biorad reaction mix and and 500nM sense and reverse primers are amplified on a ABIHT7900 with the following conditions: 30 sec 95 °C, 40 cycles of 15sec at 95 °C denaturation and 30 sec at 60 °C annealing and extension). Relative expression level is determined against a standard curve realized on a 5 log scale. TABLE 2

EXAMPLE 3: LncRNA detection in serum samples using a total RNA-seq protocol

Material and Methods:

Quantification of IncRNAs in body fluids like whole blood, serum or plasma is a non- invasive way to develop a diagnostic test to use in clinics. The expression of circulating IncRNA released by the tissues was studied in serum samples from patients with AMI and control subjects. Serum samples collected at discharge of patient between D3 and D5 from 30 patients with AMI from the MitoCare cohort were used for IncRNA profiling. Mitocare is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study. The study population includes AMI patients undergoing PCI (Percutaneous Coronary Intervention), older than 18 years. The primary endpoint is the level of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than 40% at 1 month. Patients demographics are presented in Table 3. Control serum samples were selected from subjects of ADDIA Chronobiological study.

Serum samples sequencing

RNA is extracted from 1.5ml of serum, using Norgen Serum extraction and RNA Clean-Up and Concentration Micro-Elute Kits according to the manufacturer's instructions. Sequencing libraries are prepared from the total amount of extracted RNA, using the Illumina TruSeq stranded total RNA library preparation kit combined with the human/mouse/rat RiboZero rRNA removal kit (Illumina Inc. San Diego, USA, C). All steps are performed with the low- throughput protocol and according to the manufacturer's instructions, with no fragmentation step. Briefly, cytoplasmic rRNA are hybridized to biotinylated target-specific oligos and removed using streptavidin coated magnetic beads. rRNA depleted RNA samples are then reverse transcribed into cDNA. To ensure strand specificity, single stranded cDNA is first synthetized using Super-Script II reverse transcriptase (Invitrogen) and random primers in the presence of Actinomycin D, and then converted to double stranded cDNA with the second strand marking mix that incorporates dUTP in place of dTTP. Resulting blunt ended cDNA are purified using AMPure XP magnetic beads. After a 3 'end adenylation step, Illumina' s adapters ligation is performed. So obtained singled indexed libraries are washed twice using AMPure XP beads to remove excess adapters and enriched by PCR (15 cycles). PCR products are purified with a final AMPure XP beads wash and sequencing ready libraries are eluted in 30μ1 of resuspension buffer.

For quality control, 1 μΐ of each library is run on the Agilent Technologies 2100 Bioanalyzer using a DNA 1000 chip according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Absence of adapter dimers is checked and the average library size is determined by a region table.

Libraries are quantified on Qubit 2.0 using Qubit dsDNA High Sensitivity assay kit

(Invitrogen). Library size previously determined on the Bioanalyzer is used to calculate molar concentrations from mass concentrations.

All libraries are sequenced with the Illumina NextSeq500 (2x75bp).

Sequencing analysis for the 3238 IncRNAs

RNA-seq data analysis is performed using Partek Flow (Partek Inc., St Louis, MO, USA build 6). The pre-alignment QA/QC module of Partek Flow is used to visualize the read quality of the FASTQ files. All reads are examined. The raw FASTQ files are trimmed at the 3' end in function of their quality score (Phred score). The parameters used are an end minimum quality level of 30 and a minimum trimmed read length of 50. Unaligned reads are mapped using the Homo sapiens hgl9 genome and using as guide a GTF file with the patented IncRNA annotation. This mapping is done using the software STAR version 2.5.3. The default parameters are used. The post-alignment QC module of Partek Flow is used to visualize the average base quality score per position as well as the mapping quality per alignment. The mapped reads are quantified using the GTF file with the patented IncRNA annotation for quantification using the Partek Expectation/Maximization (E/M) algorithm. The default parameters are used. The transcript counts are normalized by CPM (counts per million). Only transcripts showing high expression (CPM > 10) in at least half the samples of one group are considered.

Statistical analysis and predictive modelling

For the statistical analysis, samples are grouped into 2 groups based on the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) measured by echocardiography at 1 -month after the PCI. To identify differentially expressed IncRNA, a statistical analysis is performed using a non-parametric Wilcoxon-Mann- Whitney test and a parametric T-test. A IncRNA with a p-value < 0.05 is considered as differentially expressed.

In order to build classification models for the 2 classifications, the Classification for

MicroArrays (CMA) package of R (Slawski et al, 2008) with a leave-one-out cross-validation is used. The algorithms used for this predictive modelling are (a) random forest, (b) linear discriminant analysis and (c) naive Bayes.

Results:

Comparison between low LVEF (LVEF < 40) and high LVEF (LVEF > 40)

First, samples were grouped into 2 groups by a dichotomized variable: 1 -month LVEF < 40% considered as LV dysfunction (Ventricular remodeling) and 1- month LVEF >40% considered as preserved LV function. The volcano plot showed the differential expression of IncRNA. 192 IncRNAs are differentially expressed and among these, 20 lncRNAs are differentially expressed and have a fold change > 2 or < 0.5 between the low LVEF (LVEF < 40) and the high LVEF (LVEF > 40) groups. The p-value and the fold-change of these

IncRNA are listed in the Table 4. 316 IncRNAs which have a P<0.05 and/or an individual AUC >0.7 or <0.3 are listed in Table 5. Table 4: List of 20 IncRNAs which are differentially expressed between the low LVEF group (LVEF < 40) and the high LVEF group (LVEF > 40)

Correlation between LncRNA and Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

Instead of applying a threshold to predict patients as HF or non HF, the expression level of LncRNAs can be considered as a continuous value. For this approach, spearman correlation factor is calculated to measure the correlation between LVEF value at one month and expression level of LncRNA. When a threshold of (+ or -) 0.45 for correlation factor is applied, the expression of 73 IncRNAs are positively or negatively correlated with LVEF at 1 month. Among these 73 IncRNAs, 26 have a positive correlation factor whereas 47 have a negative correlation factor (Table 12).

EXAMPLE 4: LncRNA detection in serum samples with a targeted IncRNA-seq (FiMICS) protocol

Circulating IncRNAs in body fluids such as whole blood, serum or plasma are numerous and released from many different tissues. Thus, performing total RNA sequencing on peripheral samples implies to generate a high amount of data to get sufficient data on the IncRNAs of interest. To optimize cardiac IncRNA quantification in peripheral blood samples, a targeted sequencing kit is developed to specifically quantify the cardiac IncRNAs of interest. For this purpose, capture probes of 50 nucleotides specific and complementary to the sequence of IncRNAs associated to the cardiac tissue (SEQ ID NO 1 to SEQ ID NO 3238) are designed. Each probe covers region of 200 bp. Multiple probes are designed for each IncRNA over 200 bp to cover specific region. Maximum probe coverage is limited to 2000 nucleotides.

Celemics technology was used to develop the assay but similar technologies using capture probes for targeting sequencing panel can be used.

Material and Methods:

Serum samples collected at discharge of patient between D3 and D5 from 30 patients with AMI from the MitoCare cohort were used for IncRNA profiling. Mitocare is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study. The study population includes AMI patients undergoing PCI, older than 18 years. The primary endpoint is the level of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than 40% at 1 month. Demographics of the patients are presented in Table 13. Control serum samples were selected from subjects of ADDIA Chronobiological study. Table 13: Demographic data for Mitocare patients used with Fi-MICS test

Sequencing libraries constructed in Example 3 from Serum RNA of 18 patients who suffered AMI, (6 who developed heart failure (HF) and 12 who did not) and 6 control subjects are used. The IncRNA capture panel called Fi-MICS kit is used to capture 3238 cardiac IncRNAs of interest, according to the manufacturer instructions. Briefly, biotinylated target capture probes, specific for the IncRNAs of interest, are hybridized to the sequencing libraries for 24 hours. So, captured IncRNA sequences are purified on Tl streptavidin coated magnetic beads. Six successive washes are performed to eliminate all libraries sequences not specific to the panel probes. Finally, captures sequenced are enriched by PCR (14 cycles) and PCR products are purified with a final AMPure XP beads wash. Captured libraries are eluted in 30μ1 of nuclease-free water.

For quality control, 1 μΐ of each library is run on the Agilent Technologies 2100 Bioanalyzer using a DNA 1000 chip according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Absence of adapter dimers is checked and the average library size is determined by a region table.

Libraries are quantified on Qubit 2.0 using Qubit dsDNA High Sensitivity assay kit

(Invitrogen). Library size previously determined on the Bioanalyzer is used to calculate molar concentrations from mass concentrations. All libraries are sequenced using the Illumina NextSeq500 (2x75bp).

Sequencing analysis and statistical analysis

The read alignment and the quantification are performed as described in Example 3. The transcript counts were normalized by CPM (counts per millions). To determine differentially expressed IncRNAs, a statistical analysis is performed using a non-parametric Wilcoxon- Mann- Whitney test and a parametric T-test. A IncRNA with a p-value < 0.05 is considered as differentially expressed.

Results:

Coverage in targeted sequencing is improved

The average coverage depth across all bases in the sample is the sum of the read depths of each base in each region divided by the sum of the lengths of every region. Using the FiMICS kit, the average coverage is improved (11 times better in average with equivalent number of reads) compared to a total RNA-seq protocol, as shown in Table 14. Among the 3238 IncRNAs present in the panel, 2432 IncRNAs passed the threshold of 10 CPM in serum samples. Detection and quantification in function of coverage depth is presented in Figure 5. Whereas 2744 IncRNAs are measured with a coverage of at least lx by total RNA-Seq experiment, 3162 IncRNAs are measured with a coverage of at least lx with FiMICS panel with 10 fold less reads generated. At a coverage of at least 2x, half of the IncRNAs are excluded with total-RNA-Seq approach (1385) whereas 3041 IncRNAs are passing the threshold in FiMICS panel. Efficiency of the targeted panel is highly enhanced (Figure 5). The FiMICS (targeted sequencing) detects more IncRNA in terms of numbers of IncRNAs and their level of expression and thus using much less total sequencing reads.

Comparison between samples after myocardial infarction and control samples

First, the statistical analysis was performed by comparing 18 samples after myocardial infarction (AMI) and 6 control samples with the goal to diagnose myocardial infraction. The volcano plot showed the differential expression of IncRNA. 20 IncRNAs are differentially expressed between the samples AMI and the control samples. The p-value and the fold- change of these IncRNA are listed in the Table 15.

Table 15: List of 20 IncRNAs which are differentially expressed between samples AMI and control samples

For this classification, a combination of 14 pre-selected IncRNA through a Random Forest Classifier (Table 16) is the best predictive model obtained here. The IncRNAs were selected using a random forest algorithm. This model has an area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.971, an accuracy of 0.870, a sensitivity of 0.941, a specificity of 0.667, a Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of 0.889 and Negative Predictive Value (PNV) of 0.800. The confusion matrix is presented in Table 17.

Correlation between LncRNA and Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

LncRNAs expression level can be considered as a continuous value. Spearman correlation factor is calculated to measure the correlation between LVEF value at one month and expression level. When a threshold of (+ or -) 0.45 for correlation factor is applied, the expression of 159 IncRNAs is positively or negatively correlated with prediction of LVEF at 1 month. Among these 159 IncRNAs, 94 have a positive correlation factor whereas 65 have a negative correlation factor (Table 22).

Comparison of the total RNA-Seq and FiMICS analysis

Detection level and performance of the IncRNAs can vary in function of the method and number of samples used. Figure 6 represent the Venn diagram for each analysis using a threshold of LVEF at 40% and 45% for total RN A- Sequencing and FiMICS test. For the comparison of the 4 conditions, 8 IncRNAs are common to all conditions (SEQ1204, SEQ2454, SEQ0334, SEQ1403, SEQ1089, SEQ2692, SEQ2273, and SEQ0502).

An example of probes sequences designed on FiMICS for the first IncRNA (SEQ1204) includes the below sequences;

EXAMPLE 5: LncRNA detection in PAXgene samples using a mRNA-seq protocol

Material and Methods:

Paxgene samples collected at discharge of patient between D3 and D5 from 57 patients with AMI from the MitoCare cohort are used for IncRNA profiling. Mitocare is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study. The study population includes AMI patients undergoing PCI, older than 18 years. The primary endpoint is the level of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than 40% at 1 month. Demographics data are presented in Table 23. Table 23 : Demographic data of patients used from Mitocare study

RNA extraction, preparation of sequencing libraires and sequencing are performed as described in Example 3. Results:

Comparison between low LVEF (LVEF < 40) and high LVEF (LVEF > 40)

In this analysis, the 57 samples AMI were grouped into 2 groups using the threshold of 40%> LVEF: low LVEF (LVEF < 40) and high LVEF (LVEF > 40). The volcano plot showed the differential expression of IncRNA. 102 IncRNA are differentially expressed and among them, 19 IncRNA have a fold change > 2 or < 0.5, which are shown in Table 24. 171 IncRNAs with P<0.05 and/or individual AUC >0.7 or <0.3 are listed in Table 25.

Example 6: Analysis control subject versus AMI patients at DO Total Seq on Cardiac enriched IncRNAs

Quantification of IncRNAs in body fiuids including but not limited to whole blood, serum, plasma, urine, saliva is a non-invasive way to develop a diagnostic test to use in clinics. The expression of circulating IncRNA is studied in serum samples from patients with AMI and control subjects.

Serum samples collected at DO of patient with AMI from the MitoCare cohort and control subject of chronobio logical study are used for IncRNA profiling. Mitocare demographics are presented in Table 3. Technical workflow is identical as described in Example 3. Results:

Comparison between control subject versus AMI patients at DO

First, samples are grouped into 2 group by a dichotomized variable: patients with cardiac disorder (AMI) and subjects with no cardiac disease. We found that 1736 IncRNAs are differentially expressed (p<0.05). Most of the IncRNAs are overexpressed in patient undergoing an AMI. We show here that the IncRNAs identified in heart biopsie are biomarkers for diagnosis of heart diseases. By selecting IncRNAs with p<0.01 ; a fold change >2 or < 0.5 and an individual AUC > 0.8 or < 0.2, we identified a list of 288 IncRNAs that can diagnose AMI or heart diseases (Table 32).

Correlation between IncRNA expression at DO and LVEF at 3 days

In order to predict outcome of patient suffering from AMI at day 3 and recovery of the patients, LVEF at day 3 is considered as continuous value and spearman correlation is performed between IncRNA expression at DO and LVEF at day 3. We found that 72 IncRNAs present a correlation factor over 0.45 or below -0.45 as represented in Table 33. These IncRNAs can be used as predictor of outcome 3 days after AMI to evaluate LVEF.

Table 33: 72 IncRNAs with spearman correlation factor over 0.45 or below -0.45 wit LVEF at D3.

Among these IncR A, 4 IncR A (SEQ0097, SEQ1947, SEQ1051 and SEQ2996) are differentially expressed between controls and AMI, and are correlated to LVEF value at D3. Example 7: Analysis of Gencode IncRNAs from serum RNA-Seq data.

Quantification of IncRNAs in body fluids including but not limited to whole blood, serum, plasma, urine, saliva is a non-invasive way to develop a diagnostic test to use in clinics. The expression of circulating IncRNA is studied in serum samples from patients with AMI and control subjects.

Serum samples collected at DO and D3-D5 of patient with AMI from the MitoCare cohort and control subject of chronobiological study are used for IncRNA profiling. Mitocare demographics are presented in Table 3. Technical workflow is identical as described in Example 3 and sequencing data are aligned against Gencode database from LNCipedia 5.0. Cardiac enriched IncRNAs (SEQOOOl to SEQ3238) are removed from the analysis. A threshold of 10 CPM in half of samples in one group is applied to consider the IncRNA as positive.

In this analysis, focus is done on circulating IncRNAs to be used as biomarkers for the prediction and monitoring of Left Ventricular Remodeling and development of heart failure.

Comparison between low LVEF (LVEF < 40%) and high LVEF (LVEF > 40%) at D3- D5 serum samples

First, samples are classified into 2 group by a dichotomized variable: 1 -month LVEF < 40% considered as LV dysfunction (Ventricular remodeling) and 1- month LVEF >40% considered as preserved LV function.

291 IncRNA are differentially expressed and among these, 82 IncRNA are differentially expressed and have a fold change > 2 or < 0.5 between the low LVEF (LVEF < 40%) and the high LVEF (LVEF > 40%). The p-value and the fold-change of these IncRNA are listed in the Table 34. 468 IncRNAs which have a p<0.05 and/or an individual AUC >0.7 or <0.3 are listed in Table 35.

Comparison between low LVEF (LVEF < 45%) and high LVEF (LVEF > 45%) at D3- D5 serum samples

First, samples are grouped into 2 group by a dichotomized variable: 1 -month LVEF < 45% and 1- month LVEF >45%. 277 IncRNA are differentially expressed and among these, 70 IncRNA are differentially expressed and have a fold change > 2 or < 0.5 between the low LVEF (LVEF < 45%) and the high LVEF (LVEF > 45%) groups. The p-value and the fold-change of these IncRNA are listed in the Table 36. 369 IncRNAs which have a p<0.05 and/or an individual AUC >0.7 or <0.3 are listed in Table 37.

Table 36: List of 70 IncRNA from Gencode database which are differentially expressed (p<0.05) and have a fold change > 2 or < 0.5 between the low LVEF group (LVEF < 45%) and the high LVEF group

Comparison between low LVEF (LVEF < 40%) and high LVEF (LVEF > 40%) at DO in serum samples of AMI patients

First, samples are grouped into 2 groups by a dichotomized variable: 1 -month LVEF < 40% and 1 - month LVEF >40% .

273 IncRNA are differentially expressed and among these, 83 IncRNA are differentially expressed and have a fold change > 2 or < 0.5 between the low LVEF (LVEF < 40%) and the high LVEF (LVEF > 40%). 3 IncR As are common to D3 samples (ENST00000421563.1, ENST00000443562.1, ENST00000455988.1). The p-value and the fold-change of these IncRNA are listed in the Table 38. In Table 39, 235 IncRNAs which have a p<0.05 and an individual AUC >0.7 or <0.3 are listed in Table 39.

Comparison between low LVEF (LVEF < 45%) and high LVEF (LVEF > 45%) at DO in serum samples of AMI patients

First, samples are grouped into 2 groups by a dichotomized variable: 1 -month LVEF < 45% and 1- month LVEF >45%.

243 IncRNA are differentially expressed and among these, 69 IncRNA are differentially expressed and have a fold change > 2 or < 0.5 between the low LVEF (LVEF < 45%) and the high LVEF (LVEF > 45%). 2 IncRNAs are common to D3 samples (ENST00000429230.1, ENST00000599448.1). The p-value and the fold-change of these IncRNA are listed in the Table 40. 211 IncRNAs which have a p<0.05 and an individual AUC >0.7 or <0.3 are listed in Table 41.

Table 40: List of 76 IncRNA from Gencode database which are differentially expressed (p<0.05) and have a fold change > 2 or < 0.5 between the low LVEF group (LVEF < 45%) and the high LVEF group (LVEF > 45%)
