Project description:Loss of regenerative capacity during ex vivo expansion of muscle stem cells hampers the development of cell-based therapies for skeletal muscle disorders. Here, we developed a method to isolate regenerative reserve cell fractions from expanded murine primary cultures using differential adhesion properties and the induction of subsequent cycles of proliferation and differentiation. Fast-adhering reserve cells (FRCs) were enriched for cells expressing myogenin and contributed efficiently to muscle regeneration following transplantation in immunodeficient hosts. Slow adhering reserve cells (SRCs) generated higher number of PAX7+ cells under differentiating conditions and predominantly regenerated muscle after a secondary injury, suggesting engraftment as muscle stem cells. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that FRCs were enriched for markers of myogenic differentiation, while SRCs were characterized by a distinctive set of cell-adhesion genes. Overall, reserve cells provide a valuable source for the study and identification of molecular determinants of regeneration using ex vivo-expanded muscle cells.

Project description:Cancer-induced muscle wasting reduces quality of life, complicates or precludes cancer treatments, and predicts early mortality. Herein, we investigated the requirement of the muscle-specific E3 ubiquitin ligase, MuRF1, for muscle wasting induced by pancreatic cancer. Murine pancreatic cancer (KPC) cells, or saline, were injected into the pancreas of WT and MuRF1-/- mice, and tissues analyzed throughout tumor progression. KPC tumors induced progressive wasting of skeletal muscle and systemic metabolic reprogramming in WT mice, but not MuRF1-/- mice. KPC tumors from MuRF1-/- mice also grew slower, and showed an accumulation of metabolites normally depleted by rapidly growing tumors. Mechanistically, MuRF1 was necessary for the KPC-induced increases in cytoskeletal and muscle contractile protein ubiquitination, and the depression of proteins that support protein synthesis. Together, these data demonstrate that MuRF1 is required for KPC-induced skeletal muscle wasting, whose deletion reprograms the systemic and tumor metabolome and delays tumor growth.

Project description:NAD is an obligate co-factor for the catabolism of metabolic fuels in all cell types. However, the availability of NAD in several tissues can become limited during genotoxic stress and the course of natural aging. The point at which NAD restriction imposes functional limitations on tissue physiology remains unknown. We examined this question in murine skeletal muscle by specifically depleting Nampt, an essential enzyme in the NAD salvage pathway. Knockout mice exhibited a dramatic 85% decline in intramuscular NAD content, accompanied by fiber degeneration and progressive loss of both muscle strength and treadmill endurance. Administration of the NAD precursor nicotinamide riboside rapidly ameliorated functional deficits and restored muscle mass, despite having only a modest effect on the intramuscular NAD pool. Additionally, lifelong overexpression of Nampt preserved muscle NAD levels and exercise capacity in aged mice, supporting a critical role for tissue-autonomous NAD homeostasis in maintaining muscle mass and function. Messenger RNA was isolated from quadriceps muscle of mice from three different age groups and three different genotypes. Wildtype mice were aged 4, 7, and 24 months. Mice deficient for Nampt in skeletal muscle (mNKO) were aged 7 months. Mice overexpressing Nampt in skeletal muscle were aged 4 and 24 months.

Project description:In metazoans, skeletal muscle evolved to contract and produce force. Recent experimental evidence, however, suggests that skeletal muscle has also acquired endocrine functions and produces a vast array of muscle-derived cytokines and growth factors, collectively called myokines. The mechanisms that regulate myokine production and their effect on the resident stem cell population inskeletal muscle remain unknown. Here, we report that in adult skeletal muscle, Myf6/MRF4 is a major regulator of myokine expression. Genetic deletion of Myf6 in skeletal muscle leads to reduction of the muscle stem cell (MuSCs) pool in adult mice in a myokine-dependent manner but, surprisingly, does not disrupt muscle differentiation. Using ChIP-Seq and gene expression analyses of myogenic factors, we show that Myf6/MRF4 is a direct regulator of many myokines and muscle-secreted proteins, including ligands for canonical signaling pathways such as EGFR and VEGFR. Consequently, in Myf6-deficient animals,MuSCs increasingly break quiescence, but can nevertheless undergo differentiation. Lastly, we show that Myf6 and its gene network rapidly respondto aerobic and anaerobic exercise. Together, these findings indicate that control of myokine signaling by Myf6 is critical to maintain muscle stem cell pool and skeletal muscle function via myokine signaling.

Project description:Skeletal muscle atrophy is a serious and highly prevalent condition that remains poorly understood at the molecular level. Previous work found that skeletal muscle atrophy involves an increase in skeletal muscle Gadd45a expression, which is necessary and sufficient for skeletal muscle fiber atrophy. However, the direct mechanism by which Gadd45a promotes skeletal muscle atrophy was unknown. To address this question, we biochemically isolated skeletal muscle fiber proteins that associate with Gadd45a as it induces skeletal muscle atrophy in living mice. We found that Gadd45a interacts with multiple proteins in skeletal muscle fibers, including, most prominently, the MAP kinase kinase kinase MEKK4. Furthermore, by forming a complex with MEKK4 in skeletal muscle fibers, Gadd45a increases MEKK4 protein kinase activity, which is sufficient to induce skeletal muscle fiber atrophy and required for Gadd45a-mediated skeletal muscle fiber atrophy. Together, these results identify a direct biochemical mechanism by which Gadd45a induces skeletal muscle atrophy and provide new insight into way that skeletal muscle atrophy occurs at the molecular level.

Project description:Nebulin is a giant filamentous protein that is coextensive with the actin filaments of the skeletal muscle sarcomere. Nebulin mutations are the main cause of nemaline myopathy (NEM), with typical NEM adult patients having low expression of nebulin, yet the roles of nebulin in adult muscle remain poorly understood. To establish nebulin’s functional roles in adult muscle we performed studies on a novel conditional nebulin KO (Neb cKO) mouse model in which nebulin deletion was driven by the muscle creatine kinase (MCK) promotor. Neb cKO mice are born with high nebulin levels in their skeletal muscle but within weeks after birth nebulin expression rapidly falls to barely detectable levels Surprisingly, a large fraction of the mice survives to adulthood with low nebulin levels (<5% of control), contain nemaline rods, and undergo fiber-type switching towards oxidative types. These microarrays investigate the changes in gene expression when nebulin is deficient. Two skeletal muscle groups were studied: Quadriceps (which is markedly smaller in the Neb cKO mice relative to control) and Soleus (which is not significantly smaller in the Neb cKO relative to control). Six biological replicates for each muscle group were selected; all are age-matched males.

Project description:A phenotypically and functionally distinct population of CD4+ Foxp3+ T cells (Tregs) rapidly accumulates in acutely injured skeletal muscle of mice, just as invading myeloid-lineage cells switch from a pro-inflammatory to a pro-regenerative state. Analysis of gene expression of Tregs and CD4+Foxp3- T cells (Tconvs) from injured muscle and spleen revealed that the transcriptome of muscle Treg cells is distinct from that of splenic Tregs. A set of genes is uniquely expressed by muscle Tregs, while another set is over-expressed by the two muscle populations vis-à-vis their two spleen counterparts. 6 wk-old Foxp3-ires-GFP mice were injured in skeletal muscles with cardiotoxin. Four and fourteen days later, Tregs and Tconvs from spleen and muscle were double-sorted into Trizol. To reduce variability, cells from multiple mice were pooled for sorting, and three replicates were generated for all groups. RNA from 1.5-2.5 x 104 cells was amplified, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays.

Project description:We show that Mustn1 (Musculoskeletal embryonic nuclear protein 1, also known as Mustang) is highly expressed in skeletal muscle during the early stages of hindlimb reloading. Mustn1 expression is transiently elevated in mouse and human skeletal muscle in response to intense exercise, resistance exercise, or injury. We find that Mustn1 expression is highest in smooth muscle-rich tissues, followed by skeletal muscle fibers. Muscle from heterozygous Mustn1-deficient mice exhibit differences in gene expression related to the extracellular matrix and cell adhesion, compared to wild-type littermates. Mustn1-deficient mice have normal muscle and aorta function and whole-body glucose metabolism. Loss of Mustn1 in vascular smooth muscle cells does not affect their proliferative or migratory functions. We show that Mustn1 can be secreted from smooth muscle cells, and that it is present in arterioles of the muscle microvasculature and in muscle interstitial fluid, in particular during the hindlimb reloading phase. Proteomics analysis of muscle from Mustn1-deficient mice confirms differences in extracellular matrix composition, and female mice display higher collagen content after chemically induced muscle injury compared to wild-type littermates.
