Research Note: Effect of selection for body weight on the adipogenic conversion of turkey myogenic satellite cells by Syndecan-4 and its covalently attached N-glycosylation chains.

ABSTRACT: Adult myoblasts, satellite cells, will proliferate, and differentiate into myotubes in vitro. However, changes in environmental and nutritional conditions will result in the satellite cells differentiating into adipocyte-like cells synthesizing lipids. Prior research has shown that levels of N-glycosylation and heparan sulfate can promote or prevent the adipogenic conversion of myogenic satellite cells. Syndecan-4, an N-glycosylated heparan sulfate proteoglycan, has been shown to play key roles in satellite cell proliferation and migration. The objective of the current study was to determine if syndecan-4, and syndecan-4 N-glycosylation and heparan sulfate chain levels altered the conversion of satellite cells to an adipogenic cell fate and if growth selection affected the response of the satellite cells. Over-expression of syndecan-4, syndecan-4 without N-glycosylated chains but with its heparan sulfate chains attached, syndecan-4 without heparan sulfate chains with its N-glycosylation chains, and syndecan-4 without N-glycosylation and heparan sulfate chains was measured for lipid accumulation in pectoralis major muscle satellite cells isolated from the Randombred Control line 2 (RBC2) and 16 wk body weight (F line) turkeys. The F line was selected from the RBC2 line for only 16 wk body weight. Results from this study demonstrated that wild type levels of syndecan-4 and its covalently attached N-glycosylation chains play a key role in regulating the conversion of pectoralis major muscle satellite cells to an adipogenic lineage while selection for body weight was not a major contributing factor in this conversion.

Project description:Satellite cells (SCs) are a heterogeneous population of multipotential stem cells. During the first week after hatch, satellite cell function and fate are sensitive to temperature. Wingless-type mouse mammary tumor virus integration site family/planar cell polarity (Wnt/PCP) signaling pathway is significantly affected by thermal stress in turkey pectoralis major (p. major) muscle SCs. This pathway regulates the activity of SCs through a frizzled-7 (Fzd7) cell surface receptor and two intracellular effectors, rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) and c-Jun. The objective of the present study was to determine the effects of thermal stress, growth selection, and the Fzd7-mediated Wnt/PCP pathway on proliferation, myogenic differentiation, lipid accumulation, and expression of myogenic and adipogenic regulatory genes. These effects were evaluated in SCs isolated from the p. major muscle of 1-week faster-growing modern commercial (NC) line of turkeys as compared to SCs of a slower-growing historic Randombred Control Line 2 (RBC2) turkey line. Heat stress (43°C) increased phosphorylation of both ROCK and c-Jun with greater increases observed in the RBC2 line. Cold stress (33°C) had an inhibitory effect on both ROCK and c-Jun phosphorylation with the NC line showing greater reductions. Knockdown of the expression of Fzd7 decreased proliferation, differentiation, and expression of myogenic regulatory genes: myoblast determination factor-1 and myogenin in both lines. Both lipid accumulation and expression of adipogenic regulatory genes: peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ, CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-β, and neuropeptide-Y were suppressed with the Fzd7 knockdown. The RBC2 line was more dependent on the Fzd7-mediated Wnt/PCP pathway for proliferation, differentiation, and lipid accumulation compared to the NC line. Thus, thermal stress may affect poultry breast muscle growth potential and protein to fat ratio by altering function and fate of SCs through the Fzd7-mediated Wnt/PCP pathway in a growth-dependent manner.

Project description:The study of adipogenesis is one of the most important areas for not only regulating meat quality, but production efficiency associated with fat accretion in the poultry species. Current in vitro models for avian adipogenesis require adipogenic inducers including dexamethasone, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX), fatty acids, or insulin. However, problems still remain in these models for testing/screening potential nutritional, hormonal, and pharmaceutical factors because of interfering/overriding effects of the inducing factors. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to develop a simple in vitro method for avian adipogenesis. In this study, chicken serum (CS) and fetal bovine serum (FBS) were compared for adipogenic potential using chicken embryonic fibroblasts (CEF). Oil-red O staining at 4 d in culture of CEF under CS revealed that lipid droplet formation was increased by CS in a dose-dependent manner (0 to 10%). On the contrary, all concentrations of FBS (0 to 10%) alone did not show lipid droplet formation. In accordance with the morphological data of CEF, mRNA expression of genes involved in adipocyte differentiation/determination, fatty acid uptake, and triacylglycerol (TAG) synthesis, were most significantly up-regulated by 10% CS at d 4 compared to 1 or 5% CS. In addition, embryonic cells isolated from quail (QEF) at E5, duck (DEF) at E6, and turkey (TEF) at E6, were tested for adipogenic differentiation by media containing the same concentrations of CS. Similar to the morphological data from CEF, quantitative data of the Oil-red O staining showed that lipid droplet formation in QEF, DEF, and TEF was increased by CS in a dose-dependent manner (0 to 10%). The current study demonstrates that CS alone can induce adipogenesis on embryonic fibroblasts of various poultry species. By providing a new simple in vitro method of avian adipogenesis, diverse nutritional, hormonal, and pharmaceutical factors can be broadly and easily tested for scientific and industrial purposes.

Project description:Satellite cells (SCs) are multipotential stem cells having the plasticity to convert to an adipogenic lineage in response to thermal stress during the period of peak mitotic activity (the first week after hatch in poultry). The mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway, which regulates cellular function and fate of SCs, is greatly altered by thermal stress in turkey pectoralis major muscle SCs. The objective of the present study was to determine the effects of thermal stress, selection for growth, and the role of the mTOR pathway on SC intracellular lipid accumulation and expression of adipogenic regulatory genes. These effects were analyzed using SCs isolated from the pectoralis major muscle of 1-wk-old modern faster-growing commercial turkey line (NC) selected for increased growth and breast muscle yield as compared with SCs of a historic slower-growing Randombred Control Line 2 (RBC2) turkey. Heat stress (43 °C) of SCs during proliferation increased intracellular lipid accumulation (P < 0.001), whereas cold stress (33 °C) showed an inhibitory effect (P < 0.001) in both lines. Knockdown of mTOR reduced the intracellular lipid accumulation (P < 0.001) and suppressed the expression of several adipogenic regulatory genes: peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARγ; P < 0.001), CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-β (C/EBPβ; P < 0.001), and neuropeptide-Y (NPY; P < 0.001) during both proliferation and differentiation. The NC line SCs showed fewer reductions in lipid accumulation compared with the RBC2 line independent of temperature. Both intracellular lipid accumulation (P < 0.001) and PPARγ expression (P < 0.001) were greater at 72 h of proliferation than at 48 h of differentiation in both the RBC2 and NC lines independent of temperature. Thus, hot and cold thermal stress affected intracellular lipid accumulation in the pectoralis major muscle SCs, in part, through the mTOR pathway in wea growth-dependent manner. Altered intracellular lipid accumulation could eventually affect intramuscular fat deposition, resulting in a long-lasting effect on the structure and protein to fat ratio of the poultry pectoralis major muscle.
