Small-RNA sequencing identifies dynamic microRNA deregulation during skeletal muscle lineage progression.

ABSTRACT: Skeletal muscle satellite cells are quiescent adult resident stem cells that activate, proliferate and differentiate to generate myofibres following injury. They harbour a robust proliferation potential and self-renewing capacity enabling lifelong muscle regeneration. Although several classes of microRNAs were shown to regulate adult myogenesis, systematic examination of stage-specific microRNAs during lineage progression from the quiescent state is lacking. Here we provide a genome-wide assessment of the expression of small RNAs during the quiescence/activation transition and differentiation by RNA-sequencing. We show that the majority of small RNAs present in quiescent, activated and differentiated muscle cells belong to the microRNA class. Furthermore, by comparing expression in distinct cell states, we report a massive and dynamic regulation of microRNAs, both in numbers and amplitude, highlighting their pivotal role in regulation of quiescence, activation and differentiation. We also identify a number of microRNAs with reliable and specific expression in quiescence including several maternally-expressed miRNAs generated at the imprinted Dlk1-Dio3 locus. Unexpectedly, the majority of class-switching miRNAs are associated with the quiescence/activation transition suggesting a poised program that is actively repressed. These data constitute a key resource for functional analyses of miRNAs in skeletal myogenesis, and more broadly, in the regulation of stem cell self-renewal and tissue homeostasis.

Project description:The differentiation of skeletal muscle-derived satellite cells (MDSCs) is important in controlling muscle growth, improving livestock muscle quality, and healing of muscle-related disease. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of gene expression regulatory factors, which play critical roles in the regulation of muscle cell differentiation. This study aimed to compare the expression profile of miRNAs in MDSC differentiation, and to investigate the miRNAs which are involved in MDSC differentiation.Total RNA was extracted from MDSCs at three different stages of differentiation (MDSC-P, MDSC-D1 and MDSC-D3, representing 0, 1 and 3 days after differentiation, respectively), and used to construct small RNA libraries for RNA sequencing (RNA-seq).The results showed that in total 617 miRNAs, including 53 novel miRNA candidates, were identified. There were 9 up-expressed, 165 down-expressed, and 15 up-expressed, 145 down-expressed in MDSC-D1 and MDSC-D3, respectively, compared to those in MDSC-P. Also, 17 up-expressed, 55 down-expressed miRNAs were observed in MDSC-D3 compared to those in MDSC-D1. All known miRNAs belong to 237 miRNA gene families. Furthermore, we observed some sequence variants and base edits of the miRNAs. GO and KEGG pathway analysis showed that the majority of target genes regulated by miRNAs were involved in cellular metabolism, pathways in cancer, actin cytoskeleton regulation and the MAPK signaling pathway. Regarding the 53 novel miRNAs, there were 7 up-expressed, 31 down-expressed, and 8 up-expressed, 26 down-expressed in MDSC-D1 and MDSC-D3, respectively, compared to those in MDSC-P. The expression levels of 12 selected miRNA genes detected by RT-qPCR were consistent with those generated by deep sequencing.This study confirmed the authenticity of 564 known miRNAs and identified 53 novel miRNAs which were involved in MDSC differentiation. The identification of novel miRNAs has significantly expanded the repertoire of bovine miRNAs and could contribute to advances in understanding muscle development in cattle.
