Anoctamin 6 regulates C2C12 myoblast proliferation.

ABSTRACT: Anoctamin 6 (Ano6) belongs to a conserved gene family (TMEM16) predicted to code for eight transmembrane proteins with putative Ca2+-activated chloride channel (CaCC) activity. Recent work revealed that disruption of ANO6 leads to a blood coagulation defect and impaired skeletal development. However, its function in skeletal muscle cells remains to be determined. By using a RNA interference mediated (RNAi) loss-of-function approach, we show that Ano6 regulates C2C12 myoblast proliferation. Ano6 is highly expressed in C2C12 myoblasts and its expression decreases upon differentiation. Knocking down Ano6 significantly reduces C2C12 myoblast proliferation but has minimal effect on differentiation. Ano6 deficiency significantly reduces ERK/AKT phosphorylation, which has been shown to be involved in regulation of cancer cell proliferation by another Anoctamin member. Taken together, our data demonstrate for the first time that Ano6 plays an essential role in C2C12 myoblast proliferation, likely via regulating the ERK/AKT signaling pathway.

Ginkgolic acid regulates myogenic development by influencing the proliferation and differentiation of C2C12 myoblast cells.

Project description:Ginkgolic acid (GA), isolated from the leaves and seed coats of Ginkgo biloba, exerts several biological effects, including antitumor, antibacterial, anti‑HIV and anti‑inflammatory effects. However, the effects of GA on C2C12 myoblasts remain unclear. The present study assessed cell viability with the MTT assay and evaluated colony formation through crystal violet staining. Flow cytometry was used to analyze apoptosis with Annexin V/7‑AAD staining, proliferation with Ki67 staining and cell cycle arrest. Western blotting detected myogenic markers and other relevant proteins. Myotube formation was examined by immunofluorescence, and autophagy was measured using an LC3 antibody‑based kit via flow cytometry. The present study showed that treatment of C2C12 cells with GA significantly inhibited their viability and colony formation capacity but did not trigger apoptosis, as indicated by Annexin V/7‑AAD staining. However, Ki67 staining indicates that GA exerted dose‑dependent antiproliferative effects. Further analysis revealed that GA partially inhibited the growth of C2C12 cells via cell cycle arrest in S phase, highlighting its role in the disruption of cell proliferation. Furthermore, treatment with GA impaired myoblast differentiation, as evidenced by a reduction in the expression of the myogenesis markers, the myosin‑heavy chain, myoblast determination protein 1 and myogenin, and suppressed myotube formation. Notably, during C2C12 cell differentiation, GA promoted apoptosis without affecting cell cycle progression or Ki67 expression. Mechanistically, GA could suppress nuclear extracellular signal‑regulated kinase phosphorylation, suggesting that it modulates cell proliferation pathways. Moreover, GA triggered autophagy in differentiated C2C12 cells, as confirmed by elevated LC3 II levels. These findings highlight the multifaceted effects of GA on C2C12 cells.

Stromal interaction molecule 2 regulates C2C12 myoblast differentiation.

Project description:BackgroundEnhanced intracellular Ca2+ signaling by stromal interaction molecule 1 (STIM1)-mediated store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is required for skeletal muscle differentiation. However, the contribution of STIM2, STIM1's analogue protein, on muscle cell differentiation has not been clearly elucidated. The present study aimed to explore the contribution of STIM2-mediated SOCE on C2C12 myoblast differentiation.MethodsChanges in STIM2 expression level (reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting) and SOCE activity ([Ca2+]i measurement) were measured during 3 days of in vitro differentiation of C2C12 skeletal myoblast. Transcriptional regulation of STIM2 by nuclear factor of activated T cells, cytoplasmic (NFATc) overexpression was observed, and the effect of STIM2 knockdown on NFAT transcriptional activity (luciferase assay) and myoblast differentiation was quantified.ResultsIncrease of STIM2 protein level and enhanced SOCE activity were observed in differentiating myoblasts. Treatment with a SOCE blocker (2-APB) inhibited the differentiation. Overexpression of NFATc1 increased STIM2 expression and SOCE activity. Knockdown of STIM2 decreased NFAT transcriptional activity, SOCE activity, and differentiation of C2C12 myoblast.ConclusionIt is suggested that STIM2-activated SOCE controls C2C12 myoblast differentiation.

Irisin promotes C2C12 myoblast proliferation via ERK-dependent CCL7 upregulation.

Project description:Irisin is an exercise-induced myokine that has various physiological functions, such as roles in energy expenditure, glucose/lipid metabolism, and muscle development. In muscle development, myoblast proliferation is known to be a first step, and recent studies have reported that an increased irisin level is involved in the promotion of cell proliferation in various cell types, including myoblasts. However, the exact mechanism of action by which irisin promotes myoblast proliferation has not been reported. In this study, we aimed to determine the pro-proliferative effect of irisin on C2C12 myoblasts and its mechanism of action. Irisin induced C2C12 cell proliferation and upregulated the mRNA levels of markers of proliferation Pcna, Mki67, and Mcm2. Irisin increased extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) phosphorylation, and U0126, an ERK pathway inhibitor, suppressed irisin-induced C2C12 cell proliferation. Transcriptomic and qRT-PCR analysis showed that Ccl2, Ccl7, Ccl8, and C3 are potential downstream regulators of ERK signaling that promote C2C12 cell proliferation. Knockdown of Ccl7 revealed that irisin upregulates chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 7 (CCL7) and subsequently promotes C2C12 cell proliferation. These results suggest that irisin promotes C2C12 myoblast proliferation via ERK-dependent CCL7 upregulation and may aid in understanding how irisin contributes to muscle development.

2-D08 treatment regulates C2C12 myoblast proliferation and differentiation via the Erk1/2 and proteasome signaling pathways.

Project description:SUMOylation is one of the post-translational modifications that involves the covalent attachment of the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) to the substrate. SUMOylation regulates multiple biological processes, including myoblast proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. 2-D08 is a synthetically available flavone, which acts as a potent cell-permeable SUMOylation inhibitor. Its mechanism of action involves preventing the transfer of SUMO from the E2 thioester to the substrate without influencing SUMO-activating enzyme E1 (SAE-1/2) or E2 Ubc9-SUMO thioester formation. However, both the effects and mechanisms of 2-D08 on C2C12 myoblast cells remain unclear. In the present study, we found that treatment with 2-D08 inhibits C2C12 cell proliferation and differentiation. We confirmed that 2-D08 significantly hampers the viability of C2C12 cells. Additionally, it inhibited myogenic differentiation, decreasing myosin heavy chain (MHC), MyoD, and myogenin expression. Furthermore, we confirmed that 2-D08-mediated anti-myogenic effects impair myoblast differentiation and myotube formation, reducing the number of MHC-positive C2C12 cells. In addition, we found that 2-D08 induces the activation of ErK1/2 and the degradation of MyoD and myogenin in C2C12 cells. Taken together, these results indicated that 2-D08 treatment results in the deregulated proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts. However, further research is needed to investigate the long-term effects of 2-D08 on skeletal muscles.

Puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase is required for C2C12 myoblast proliferation and differentiation.

Project description:The ubiquitin-proteasome system is a major protein degradation pathway in the cell. Proteasomes produce several peptides that are rapidly degraded to free amino acids by intracellular aminopeptidases. Our previous studies reported that proteolysis via proteasomes and aminopeptidases is required for myoblast proliferation and differentiation. However, the role of intracellular aminopeptidases in myoblast proliferation and differentiation had not been clarified. In this study, we investigated the effects of puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase (PSA) on C2C12 myoblast proliferation and differentiation by knocking down PSA. Aminopeptidase enzymatic activity was reduced in PSA-knockdown myoblasts. Knockdown of PSA induced impaired cell cycle progression in C2C12 myoblasts and accumulation of cells at the G2/M phase. Additionally, after the induction of myogenic differentiation in PSA-knockdown myoblasts, multinucleated circular-shaped myotubes with impaired cell polarity were frequently identified. Cell division cycle 42 (CDC42) knockdown in myoblasts resulted in a loss of cell polarity and the formation of multinucleated circular-shaped myotubes, which were similar to PSA-knockdown myoblasts. These data suggest that PSA is required for the proliferation of myoblasts in the growth phase and for the determination of cell polarity and elongation of myotubes in the differentiation phase.

Enhancement of C2C12 myoblast proliferation and differentiation by GASP-2, a myostatin inhibitor.

Project description:BackgroundGASP-2 is a secreted multi-domain glycoprotein known as a specific inhibitor of myostatin and GDF-11. Here we investigate the role of GASP-2 on myogenesis and the effect of its glycosylation on its activity.MethodsGASP-2 overexpression or knockdown by shRNAs were carried out on C2C12 myoblasts cells. In silico analysis of GASP-2 protein was performed to identify its glycosylation sites. We produced a mouse recombinant GASP-2 protein in a prokaryotic system to obtain a fully deglycosylated protein allowing us to study the importance of this post-translational modification on GASP-2 activity.ResultsBoth mature and deglycosylated GASP-2 proteins increase C2C12 proliferation and differentiation by inhibiting the myostatin pathway. In silico and western-blot analyses revealed that GASP-2 presents one consensus sequence for N-glycosylation and six potential sites of mucin-type O-glycosylation.ConclusionsGASP-2 promotes myogenesis and thus independently of its glycosylation.General significanceThis is the first report demonstrating that GASP-2 promotes proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts by inhibiting the canonical pathway of myostatin.

MiRNA-199a-3p regulates C2C12 myoblast differentiation through IGF-1/AKT/mTOR signal pathway.

Project description:MicroRNAs constitute a class of ~22-nucleotide non-coding RNAs. They modulate gene expression by associating with the 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) of messenger RNAs (mRNAs). Although multiple miRNAs are known to be regulated during myoblast differentiation, their individual roles in muscle development are still not fully understood. In this study, we showed that miR-199a-3p was highly expressed in skeletal muscle and was induced during C2C12 myoblasts differentiation. We also identified and confirmed several genes of the IGF-1/AKT/mTOR signal pathway, including IGF-1, mTOR, and RPS6KA6, as important cellular targets of miR-199a-3p in myoblasts. Overexpression of miR-199a-3p partially blocked C2C12 myoblast differentiation and the activation of AKT/mTOR signal pathway, while interference of miR-199a-3p by antisense oligonucleotides promoted C2C12 differentiation and myotube hypertrophy. Thus, our studies have established miR-199a-3p as a potential regulator of myogenesis through the suppression of IGF-1/AKT/mTOR signal pathway.

miR-708-5p Regulates Myoblast Proliferation and Differentiation.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators involved in the myogenic process in skeletal muscles. miR-708-5p plays an important role in various biochemical and physiological processes, but its function in skeletal myogenesis remain unclear. In this study, we first explored the effects of miR-708-5p on C2C12 proliferation and differentiation by overexpression and interference experiments. Then, we predicted the target genes of miR-708-5p and analyzed their function. We found that miR-708-5p was gradually increased during myoblast differentiation. Overexpression of miR-708-5p significantly inhibited cell proliferation and promoted the differentiation of myoblasts. A total of 253 target genes were predicted using a bioinformatics approach. These genes were significantly enriched in muscle growth-related GO terms and KEGG pathways, such as actin filament organization, actin cytoskeleton organization, PI3K-Akt pathway, insulin pathway, and Jak-STAT pathway. Among them, Pik3ca, Pik3r3, and Irs1 were considered to be the key target genes of miR-708-5p. To sum up, miR-708-5p inhibited C2C12 cells proliferation and promoted C2C12 cells differentiation. Its target genes significantly enriched in GO terms and KEGG pathways related to the development and growth of muscle. Our results provided a basis for studies on the function and mechanism of miR-708-5p regulating skeletal muscle growth and development.

Proteomics-based investigation in C2C12 myoblast differentiation.

Project description:Skeletal muscle cell differentiation is a multistage process extensively studied over the years. Even if great improvements have been achieved in defining biological process underlying myogenesis, many molecular mechanisms need still to be clarified.To further highlight this process, we studied cells at undifferentiated, intermediate and highly differentiated stages, and we analyzed, for each condition, morphological and proteomic changes. We also identified the proteins that showed statistical significant changes by a ESI-Q-TOF mass spectrometer. This work provides further evidence of the involvement of particular proteins in skeletal muscle development. Furthermore, the high level of expression of many heat shock proteins, suggests a relationship between differentiation and cellular stress. Intriguingly, the discovery of myogenesis-correlated proteins, known to play a role in apoptosis, suggests a link between differentiation and this type of cell death.

An HMGA2-IGF2BP2 axis regulates myoblast proliferation and myogenesis.

Project description:A group of genes that are highly and specifically expressed in proliferating skeletal myoblasts during myogenesis was identified. Expression of one of these genes, Hmga2, increases coincident with satellite cell activation, and later its expression significantly declines correlating with fusion of myoblasts into myotubes. Hmga2 knockout mice exhibit impaired muscle development and reduced myoblast proliferation, while overexpression of HMGA2 promotes myoblast growth. This perturbation in proliferation can be explained by the finding that HMGA2 directly regulates the RNA-binding protein IGF2BP2. Add-back of IGF2BP2 rescues the phenotype. IGF2BP2 in turn binds to and controls the translation of a set of mRNAs, including c-myc, Sp1, and Igf1r. These data demonstrate that the HMGA2-IGF2BP2 axis functions as a key regulator of satellite cell activation and therefore skeletal muscle development.
