Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing is an important post-transcriptional regulator in the heart, but its biomarker potential in human DCM and its reflection in the circulation are not well defined.</div></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><div>We performed comprehensive RNA editome profiling of human myocardium from DCM patients and non-failing donors, and integrated these results with peripheral blood RNA editing profiles from HF patients and controls, using a SPRINT-based pipeline with stringent in-house post-postprocessing and quality filtering. Global editing distributions and site-level differential editing were assessed, and shared heart–blood candidates were evaluated for directionality and functional enrichment.</div></div><div><h3>Results</h3><div>Cardiac RNA editing was dominated by ADAR-mediated A-to-I events and was significantly increased in DCM, with prominent enrichment in Alu elements and a higher number of unique editing sites compared with controls. Site-level analysis identified a predominantly hyper-edited DCM signature, mapping to genes and pathways linked to cardiomyopathy and cellular stress, including hypoxia and apoptosis. Cross-tissue comparison revealed 107 shared differentially edited sites between DCM heart and HF blood, with subsets showing concordant directionality. Shared targets were enriched for innate immune and type I interferon signaling, RIG-I pathway regulation, hypoxia-related responses, and apoptosis.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>DCM is associated with global myocardial A-to-I hyper-editing and a robust, multi-locus editing program. Importantly, a subset of these disease-associated editing events is detectable in peripheral blood from heart failure patients, supporting the feasibility of HF-associated circulating RNA editing signatures that reflect myocardial pathology.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":73835,"journal":{"name":"Journal of molecular and cellular cardiology plus","volume":"15 ","pages":"Article 100838"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147395614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
