Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in the X-linked dystrophin (DMD) gene. The absence of dystrophin protein leads to progressive muscle weakness and wasting, disability and death. To establish a tailored large animal model of DMD, we deleted DMD exon 52 in male pig cells by gene targeting and generated offspring by nuclear transfer. DMD pigs exhibit absence of dystrophin in skeletal muscles, increased serum creatine kinase levels, progressive dystrophic changes of skeletal muscles, impaired mobility, muscle weakness, and a maximum life span of 3 months due to respiratory impairment. To address the accelerated development of muscular dystrophy in DMD pigs as compared to human patients, we performed a genome-wide transcriptome study of M. biceps femoris samples from 2-day-old and 3-month-old DMD and age-matched wild-type pigs. The transcriptome changes in 3-month-old DMD pigs were in good accordance with the findings of gene expression profiles in human DMD, reflecting the processes of degeneration, regeneration, inflammation, fibrosis, and impaired metabolic activity. The transcriptome profile of 2-day-old DMD pigs pointed towards increased protein and DNA catabolism, reduced extracellular matrix formation and cell proliferation and showed similarities with transcriptome changes induced by exercise injury in muscle. Our transcriptome studies provide new insights into congenital changes associated with dystrophin deficiency and secondary complications arising during postnatal development. Thus the DMD pig is a useful model to determine the hierarchy of physiological derangements in dystrophin-deficient muscle. 13 samples, two conditions, two age-groups, 3-4 biological replicates

Project description:Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone that potentiates glucose stimulated insulin secretion. GLP-1 is classically produced by gut L cells; however, under certain circumstances alpha-cells can express the prohormone convertase required for proglucagon processing to GLP-1, prohormone convertase 1/3 (PC1/3), and can produce GLP-1. However, the mechanisms through which this occurs are poorly defined. Understanding the mechanisms by which alpha-cell PC1/3 expression can be activated may reveal new targets for diabetes treatment. Here, we demonstrate that the GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist, liraglutide, increases alpha-cell GLP-1 expression in a beta cell GLP-1R-dependent manner. We demonstrate that this effect of liraglutide is translationally relevant in human islets through application of a new scRNA-sequencing technology, DART-seq. We find that the effect of liraglutide to increase alpha-cell PC1/3 mRNA expression occurs in a sub-cluster of alpha-cells and is associated with increased expression of other beta-cell-like genes, which we confirm by IHC. Finally, we find that the effect of liraglutide to increase bi-hormonal insulin+ glucagon+ cells is mediated by the beta-cell GLP-1R in mice. Together, our data validate a new high-sensitivity method for scRNA-sequencing in human islets and identify a novel GLP-1 mediated pathway regulating human alpha-cell function.

Project description:Obesity and its co-morbidities, such as diabetes and hypertension, can significantly reduce a person’s quality of life and place huge pressure on healthcare resources. When we eat a meal our gut and brain release hormones to control the amount of food and fluid we ingest to prevent overeating. One of these hormones is called glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and is released from intestinal cells in response to food intake, but also produced and released in the brain. Drug analogues of GLP-1 are already in use in the clinic to treat both diabetes and obesity. The aim of this work was to obtain fundamental knowledge about a GLP-1 receptor population in nerve terminals of the posterior pituitary gland. We have investigated the pharmacological actions of GLP-1 using a selective receptor agonist called liraglutide, a drug that is approved for diabetes and obesity treatment in humans. Our work has focussed on the phosphoproteome of the neurointermediate lobe (posterior pituitary + intermediate lobe) of the rat pituitary gland 30 minutes after intraperitoneal injection of liraglutide (100 µg/kg) compared to vehicle controls (n = 6 animals per group). New understanding of this GLP-1 receptor population is essential for our knowledge of current treatments of diabetes and obesity that use stable peptide analogues in humans.

Project description:B6.Cg-Lep ob/ob mice females were surgically implanted in an age of 10-12 weeks with Alzet osmotic mini pumps (model 1002, 0,25l/h, Cupertino, CA, USA) in two groups of ten mice each to perform continuous subcutaneous infusions of Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline (vehicle; n = 8) or GLP-1 (GLP-1; n = 9) agonist Liraglutide (Victoza, batch# CS6C214, Novo Nordisk A/S, Bagsvaerd, Denmark) to investigate the effects of the respective treatment on peri-gonadal epididymal white adipose tissue gene expression. Vehicle or Liraglutide at a dose of 600 g/kg/d were continuously infused (at a dose of 600 g/kg/d) over a 14 days period. On the morning after the osmotic mini pump reservoirs liquid content should have been consumed mice were dissected to remove the peri-gonadal epididymal fat pad for white adipose tissue gene expression analysis. At least 220 mg of white adipose tissue was quickly removed, shock-frozen in liquid nitrogen and thereafter stored at -80C for mRNA extraction. To perform RNA-Seq analysis, samples were single-end sequenced at a depth of 75 80M reads per sample with a read-length of 51 bp using an Illumina Hiseq2500. Raw sequencing files were quality controlled with FastQC. Alignment and trimming of reads was performed using the OSA algorithm against the mouse reference genome b38.1 with RefSeq as the gene model as implemented in OmicSoft ArraySuite software, version 8. RNA transcripts were quantified using RSEM methods as implemented in Arraystudio counting count the read fragments mapping to each individual gene and quantify expression by the corresponding FPKM. In summary, expression was measured as FPKM for 25,054 unique genes. Principal component analysis was then performed to check for possible batch effects and outliers complemented by calculating the RNA-Seq 5'->3' trend for each sample. One sample for the vehicle control as well as for the Liraglutide group were identified as outliers and removed from subsequent analysis, resulting in 7 and 8 samples remaining for each group respectively. Abundance values (counts) were normalized and compared between liraglutide treated mice versus baseline controls using DESeq2. All P-values were adjusted for multiple testing by the Benjamini-Hochberg method.

Project description:GLP-1 based diabetes drugs are effective to reduce hepatic lipid accumulation beyong glycemic control. As GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) is not expressed in hepatocytes, the mechanism behind the beneficial effects of GLP-1 based drugs on the liver remained elusive. Several studies have shown that the expression of hepatic fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) can be stimulated by GLP-1-based drugs. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess such stimulation in mice and in mouse primary hepatocytes, determine whether hepatic FGF21 mediates functions of the GLP-1R agonist liraglutide, and to explore the potential mechanisms of liraglutide regulating the expression of FGF21. In high-fat diet induced obese mice, we observed hepatic and plasma FGF21 elevation, improved glucose disposal, and reduced plasma triglyceride levels by liraglutide treatment. Moreover, RNA-sequencing on the liver suggested that Fgf21 was the most upregulated gene after liraglutide treatment. In liver-specific FGF21 knock-out mice on high-fat and high-fructose diet, the body-weight gain attenuation and lipid homeostatic effects of liraglutide was lost or significantly reduced. These studies implied that hepatic FGF21 was the critical mediator of liraglutide-induced metabolic improvement.

Project description:Expression levels of the RNA-binding protein Quaking (QKI) are low in monocytes of early, human atherosclerotic lesions, but abundant in macrophages of advanced plaques. Specific depletion of QKI protein impaired monocyte adhesion, migration, differentiation into macrophages, and foam cell formation in vitro and in vivo. RNA-seq and microarray analysis of human monocyte and macrophage transcriptomes, including those of a unique QKI haploinsufficient patient, revealed striking changes in QKI-dependent mRNA levels and splicing of RNA transcripts. Microarray analysis of gene expression and splicing in THP-1 cells transfected with shRNAs, with or without PMA treatment to induce differentiation. 12 total samples were analyzed: THP-1 monocytic cell line transfected with QKI or control shRNAs; samples taken at day 0 or day 3 of PMA-induced differentiation into macrophages.
