Skeletal muscle engraftment potential of adult mouse skin side population cells.

ABSTRACT: Adult bone marrow and skeletal muscle have been shown to contain a subpopulation of cells, called side population (SP) cells, that can be isolated with the fluorescence-activated cell sorter. We used a similar method to identify SP cells in the skin of adult mice. These cells express surface markers similar to SP cells isolated from skeletal muscle, but differ from bone marrow SP cells and do not express hematopoietic markers. When transplanted into nonirradiated mdx mice, nuclei from donor skin SP cells are found within myofibers that express dystrophin. Thus, adult skin SP cells can engraft in dystrophic skeletal muscle even in the absence of total body irradiation.

Highly efficient, functional engraftment of skeletal muscle stem cells in dystrophic muscles.

Project description:Satellite cells reside beneath the basal lamina of skeletal muscle fibers and include cells that act as precursors for muscle growth and repair. Although they share a common anatomical localization and typically are considered a homogeneous population, satellite cells actually exhibit substantial heterogeneity. We used cell-surface marker expression to purify from the satellite cell pool a distinct population of skeletal muscle precursors (SMPs) that function as muscle stem cells. When engrafted into muscle of dystrophin-deficient mdx mice, purified SMPs contributed to up to 94% of myofibers, restoring dystrophin expression and significantly improving muscle histology and contractile function. Transplanted SMPs also entered the satellite cell compartment, renewing the endogenous stem cell pool and participating in subsequent rounds of injury repair. Together, these studies indicate the presence in adult skeletal muscle of prospectively isolatable muscle-forming stem cells and directly demonstrate the efficacy of myogenic stem cell transplant for treating muscle degenerative disease.

Tubastatin A maintains adult skeletal muscle stem cells in a quiescent state ex vivo and improves their engraftment ability in vivo.

Project description:Adult skeletal muscle stem cells (MuSCs) are important for muscle regeneration and constitute a potential source of cell therapy. However, upon isolation, MuSCs rapidly exit quiescence and lose transplantation potency. Maintenance of the quiescent state in vitro preserves MuSC transplantation efficiency and provides an opportunity to study the biology of quiescence. Here we show that Tubastatin A (TubA), an Hdac6 inhibitor, prevents primary cilium resorption, maintains quiescence, and enhances MuSC survival ex vivo. Phenotypic characterization and transcriptomic analysis of TubA-treated cells revealed that TubA maintains most of the biological features and molecular signatures of quiescence. Furthermore, TubA-treated MuSCs showed improved engraftment ability upon transplantation. TubA also induced a return to quiescence and improved engraftment of cycling MuSCs, revealing a potentially expanded application for MuSC therapeutics. Altogether, these studies demonstrate the ability of TubA to maintain MuSC quiescence ex vivo and to enhance the therapeutic potential of MuSCs and their progeny.

Engraftment potential of dermal fibroblasts following in vivo myogenic conversion in immunocompetent dystrophic skeletal muscle.

Project description:Autologous dermal fibroblasts are promising candidates for enhancing muscle regeneration in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) due to their ease of isolation, immunological compatibility, and greater proliferative potential than DMD satellite cells. We previously showed that mouse fibroblasts, after MyoD-mediated myogenic reprogramming in vivo, engraft in skeletal muscle and supply dystrophin. Assessing the therapeutic utility of this system requires optimization of conversion and transplantation conditions and quantitation of engraftment so that these parameters can be correlated with possible functional improvements. Here we derived dermal fibroblasts from transgenic mice carrying mini-dystrophin, transduced them by lentivirus carrying tamoxifen-inducible MyoD, and characterized their myogenic and engraftment potential. After cell transplantation into muscles of immunocompetent dystrophic mdx4cv mice, tamoxifen treatment drove myogenic conversion and fusion into myofibers that expressed high levels of mini-dystrophin. Injecting 50,000 cells/microliter (1 × 106 total cells) resulted in a peak of ~600 mini-dystrophin positive myofibers in TA muscle single cross-sections. However, EDL muscles with up to 30% regional engraftment showed no functional improvements; similar limitations were obtained with whole muscle mononuclear cells. Despite the current lack of physiological improvement, this study suggests a viable initial strategy for using a patient-accessible dermal cell population to enhance skeletal muscle regeneration in DMD.

Identification of the circadian transcriptome in adult mouse skeletal muscle.

Project description:Circadian rhythms are approximate 24-h behavioral and physiological cycles that function to prepare an organism for daily environmental changes. The basic clock mechanism is a network of transcriptional-translational feedback loops that drive rhythmic expression of genes over a 24-h period. The objectives of this study were to identify transcripts with a circadian pattern of expression in adult skeletal muscle and to determine the effect of the Clock mutation on gene expression. Expression profiling on muscle samples collected every 4 h for 48 h was performed. Using COSOPT, we identified a total of 215 transcripts as having a circadian pattern of expression. Real-time PCR results verified the circadian expression of the core clock genes, Bmal1, Per2, and Cry2. Annotation revealed cycling genes were involved in a range of biological processes including transcription, lipid metabolism, protein degradation, ion transport, and vesicular trafficking. The tissue specificity of the skeletal muscle circadian transcriptome was highlighted by the presence of known muscle-specific genes such as Myod1, Ucp3, Atrogin1 (Fbxo32), and Myh1 (myosin heavy chain IIX). Expression profiling was also performed on muscle from the Clock mutant mouse and sarcomeric genes such as actin and titin, and many mitochondrial genes were significantly downregulated in the muscle of Clock mutant mice. Defining the circadian transcriptome in adult skeletal muscle and identifying the significant alterations in gene expression that occur in muscle of the Clock mutant mouse provide the basis for understanding the role of circadian rhythms in the daily maintenance of skeletal muscle.

Single cell analysis of adult mouse skeletal muscle stem cells in homeostatic and regenerative conditions.

Project description:Dedicated stem cells ensure postnatal growth, repair and homeostasis of skeletal muscle. Following injury, muscle stem cells (MuSCs) exit from quiescence and divide to reconstitute the stem cell pool and give rise to muscle progenitors. The transcriptomes of pooled MuSCs have provided a rich source of information for describing the genetic programs of distinct static cell states; however, bulk microarray and RNA sequencing provide only averaged gene expression profiles, blurring the heterogeneity and developmental dynamics of asynchronous MuSC populations. Instead, the granularity required to identify distinct cell types, states, and their dynamics can be afforded by single cell analysis. We were able to compare the transcriptomes of thousands of MuSCs and primary myoblasts isolated from homeostatic or regenerating muscles by single cell RNA sequencing. Using computational approaches, we could reconstruct dynamic trajectories and place, in a pseudotemporal manner, the transcriptomes of individual MuSC within these trajectories. This approach allowed for the identification of distinct clusters of MuSCs and primary myoblasts with partially overlapping but distinct transcriptional signatures, as well as the description of metabolic pathways associated with defined MuSC states.

Myogenin regulates exercise capacity and skeletal muscle metabolism in the adult mouse.

Project description:Although skeletal muscle metabolism is a well-studied physiological process, little is known about how it is regulated at the transcriptional level. The myogenic transcription factor myogenin is required for skeletal muscle development during embryonic and fetal life, but myogenin's role in adult skeletal muscle is unclear. We sought to determine myogenin's function in adult muscle metabolism. A Myog conditional allele and Cre-ER transgene were used to delete Myog in adult mice. Mice were analyzed for exercise capacity by involuntary treadmill running. To assess oxidative and glycolytic metabolism, we performed indirect calorimetry, monitored blood glucose and lactate levels, and performed histochemical analyses on muscle fibers. Surprisingly, we found that Myog-deleted mice performed significantly better than controls in high- and low-intensity treadmill running. This enhanced exercise capacity was due to more efficient oxidative metabolism during low- and high-intensity exercise and more efficient glycolytic metabolism during high-intensity exercise. Furthermore, Myog-deleted mice had an enhanced response to long-term voluntary exercise training on running wheels. We identified several candidate genes whose expression was altered in exercise-stressed muscle of mice lacking myogenin. The results suggest that myogenin plays a critical role as a high-level transcriptional regulator to control the energy balance between aerobic and anaerobic metabolism in adult skeletal muscle.

Somitic origin of limb muscle satellite and side population cells.

Project description:Repair of mature skeletal muscle is mediated by adult muscle progenitors. Satellite cells have long been recognized as playing a major role in muscle repair, whereas side population (SP) cells have more recently been identified as contributing to this process. The developmental source of these two progenitor populations has been considerably debated. We explicitly tested and quantified the contribution of embryonic somitic cells to these progenitor populations. Chick somitic cells were labeled by using replication-defective retroviruses or quail/chick chimeras, and mouse cells were labeled by crossing somite-specific, Pax3-derived Cre driver lines with a Cre-dependent reporter line. We show that the majority of, if not all, limb muscle satellite cells arise from cells expressing Pax3 specifically in the hypaxial somite and their migratory derivatives. We also find that a significant number of, but not all, limb muscle SP cells are derived from the hypaxial somite. Notably, the heterogeneity in the developmental origin of SP cells is reflected in their functional heterogeneity; somitically derived SP cells are intrinsically more myogenic than nonsomitically derived ones. Thus, we show that the somites, which supply embryonic and fetal myoblasts, are also an important source of highly myogenic adult muscle progenitors.

Expression data from J82 side population and non-side population cells

Project description:Subpopulations of highly tumorigenic, drug resistant cancer stem-like cells play a key role in cancer recurrence and progression. Surprisingly, these aggressive cells can arise repeatedly de novo from bulk tumor cells independently of mutational events. We investigated whether transition to and from a cancer stem-like state is associated with epigenetic alterations, such as DNA methylation and chromatin accessibility. By Hoechst dye staining and FACS analysis, side population (SP) and non-side population cells were sorted from J82 cells. AcceSssIble assay by Infinium EPIC BeadArray platform was used to identify potential epigenetic driver genes in the process of SP /NSP phenotype plasticity. Genes with differential accessible promoter regions were overlapped with genes differentially expressed by HuEx array analysis. Oncomine and Basespace were adopted to explore the clinical relevance of the target genes.

Prosurvival Factors Improve Functional Engraftment of Myogenically Converted Dermal Cells into Dystrophic Skeletal Muscle.

Project description:In Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and other muscle wasting disorders, cell therapies are a promising route for promoting muscle regeneration by supplying a functional copy of the missing dystrophin gene and contributing new muscle fibers. The clinical application of cell-based therapies is resource intensive, and it will therefore be necessary to address key limitations that reduce cell engraftment into muscle tissue. A pressing issue is poor donor cell survival following transplantation, which in preclinical studies limits the ability to effectively test the impact of cell-based therapy on whole muscle function. We, therefore, sought to improve engraftment and the functional impact of in vivo myogenically converted dermal fibroblasts (dFbs) using a prosurvival cocktail (PSC) that includes heat shock followed by treatment with insulin-like growth factor-1, a caspase inhibitor, a Bcl-XL peptide, a KATP channel opener, basic fibroblast growth factor, Matrigel, and cyclosporine A. Advantages of dFbs include compatibility with the autologous setting, ease of isolation, and greater proliferative potential than DMD satellite cells. dFbs expressed tamoxifen-inducible MyoD and carried a mini-dystrophin gene driven by a muscle-specific promoter. After transplantation into muscles of mdx mice, a 70% reduction in donor cells was observed by day 5, and a 94% reduction by day 28. However, treatment with PSC gave a nearly three-fold increase in donor cells in early engraftment, and greatly increased the number of donor-contributed muscle fibers and total engrafted area in transplanted muscles. Furthermore, dystrophic muscles that received dFbs with PSC displayed reduced injury with eccentric contractions and an increase in maximum isometric force. Thus, enhancing survival of myogenic cells increases engraftment and improves structure and function of dystrophic muscle.
