A key trafficking route distributes cargo taken up by clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) via early endosomes. The highly dynamic nature of the endosome network presents a challenge for its quantitative analysis, and theoretical modelling approaches can assist in elucidating the organization of the endosome trafficking system. Here, we introduce a new computational modelling approach for assessment of endosome distributions. We employed a model of induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) with inherited mutations causing dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). In this model, vesicle distribution is defective due to impaired CME-dependent signaling, resulting in plasma membrane-localized early endosomes. We recapitulated this in iPSC-CMs carrying two different mutations, TPM1-L185F and TnT-R141W (MUT), using 3D confocal imaging as well as super-resolution STED microscopy. We computed scaled distance distributions of EEA1-positive vesicles based on a spherical approximation of the cell. Employing this approach, 3D spherical modelling identified a bi-modal segregation of early endosome populations in MUT iPSC-CMs, compared to WT controls. Moreover, spherical modelling confirmed reversion of the bi-modal vesicle localization in RhoA II-treated MUT iPSC-CMs. This reflects restored, homogeneous distribution of early endosomes within MUT iPSC-CMs following rescue of CME-dependent signaling via RhoA II-dependent RhoA activation. Overall, our approach enables assessment of early endosome distribution in cell-based disease models. This new method may provide further insight into the dynamics of endosome networks in different physiological scenarios. dc:creator: Hafiza Nosheen Saleem, Nadezda Ignatyeva, Christiaan Stuut, Stefan Jakobs, Michael Habeck and Antje Ebert dcterms:created: 2024-06-06T11:24:04Z Last-Modified: 2024-06-06T11:36:16Z dcterms:modified: 2024-06-06T11:36:16Z dc:format: application/pdf; version=1.7 title: 3D Computational Modeling of Defective Early Endosome Distribution in Human iPSC-Based Cardiomyopathy Models Last-Save-Date: 2024-06-06T11:36:16Z pdf:docinfo:creator_tool: LaTeX with hyperref access_permission:fill_in_form: true pdf:docinfo:keywords: endosomes; human iPSCs; computational modelling; signal processing; signal transduction; STED; dilated cardiomyopathy; heart failure pdf:docinfo:modified: 2024-06-06T11:36:16Z meta:save-date: 2024-06-06T11:36:16Z pdf:encrypted: false dc:title: 3D Computational Modeling of Defective Early Endosome Distribution in Human iPSC-Based Cardiomyopathy Models modified: 2024-06-06T11:36:16Z cp:subject: Intracellular cargo delivery via distinct transport routes relies on vesicle carriers.
