Project description:During aging, the number and functionality of muscle stem cells (MuSCs) decreases leading to impaired regeneration of aged skeletal muscle. In addition to intrinsic changes in aged MuSCs, extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins deriving from other cell types, e.g., fibrogenic-adipogenic progenitor cells (FAPs), contribute to the aging phenotype of MuSCs and impaired regeneration in the elderly. So far, no comprehensive analysis on how age-dependent changes in the whole skeletal muscle proteome affect MuSC function have been conducted. Here, we investigated age-dependent changes in the proteome of different skeletal muscle types by applying deep quantitative mass spectrometry. We identified 183 extracellular matrix proteins that show different abundances in skeletal muscles of old mice. By integrating single cell sequencing data, we reveal that transcripts of those ECM proteins are mainly expressed in FAPs, suggesting that FAPs are the main contributors to ECM remodelling during aging. We functionally investigated one of those ECM molecules, namely Smoc2, which is aberrantly expressed during aging. We show that Smoc2 levels are elevated during regeneration and that its accumulation in the aged MuSC niche causes impairment of MuSCs function through constant activation of integrin/MAPK signaling. In vivo, supplementation of exogenous Smoc2 hampers the regeneration of young muscles following serial injuries, leading to a phenotype reminiscent of regenerating aged skeletal muscle. Taken together, we provide a comprehensive resource of changes in the composition of the ECM of aged skeletal muscles, we pinpoint the cell types driving these changes, and we identify a new niche protein causing functional impairment of MuSCs thereby hampering the regeneration capacity of skeletal muscles.

Project description:Skeletal muscle is a post-mitotic tissue that exhibits an extremely low turnover in the absence of disease or injury. At the same time, muscle possesses remarkable regenerative capacity mediated by satellite cells (SCs) that reside in close association with individual myofibers, underneath the fiberM-bM-^@M-^Ys basal lamina. Consistent with the low turnover of the muscle, SCs in adult animals are mitotically quiescent and therefore provide an excellent model to study stem cell quiescence. As an organism grows older, the resident stem cells are exposed to a deteriorating environment and experience chronological aging. In stem cells with high turnover, the effects of chronological aging are superimposed upon the effects of the replicative aging that results from DNA replication and cell division. On the contrary, SCs experience minimal replicative aging due to their low turnover. They are thus a good model to study the consequence of chronological aging of quiescent stem cells. We have developed an isolation protocol to selectively enrich SCs by FACS from adult mice and applied the ChIP-seq technology to obtain H3K4me3, H3K27me3 and H3K36me3 from quiescent and activated SCs from young mice and from quiescent SCs from old mice. Our analysis aims to understand the chromatin features underlying stem cell properties such as quiecence and lineage-potency, and to understand how the chromatin structure of a quiescent stem cell pouplation changes with age. VCAM+/CD31-/CD45-/Sca1- quiescent satellite cells (QSCs) were isolated by FACS from hindlimb muscle of uninjured 2-3- or 22-24-month old mice and processed for ChIP-seq.

Project description:Regulation of chromatin accessibility is critical for cell fate decisions. Chromatin architecture responds to extrinsic environments rapidly. The traditional adult stem cell isolation approach requires tissue dissociation, and adult stem cells respond to the stimulation and adapt a different chromatin conformation. Here, we characterized the DNA regulatory landscape and transcriptomic profile of muscle stem cell quiescence exit and self-renewal by time-course profiling of the in situ fixed SCs upon injury-induced activation and during aging. Detailed analysis of the chromatin accessibility profiles leads to the identification of enhancer elements for SC quiescence. Constant activation of the enhancer elements promotes stemness and prevents SCs from differentiation, whereas loss of them causes cell-cycle arrest and essentially leads to defects in SC activation. Interestingly, we also showed that aged SCs display a more open chromatin environment than young SCs. Our compre hensive characterization of the chromatin accessibility and transcriptomic landscapes during SC quiescence exit and self-renewal broadens our understanding of this process and identifies functional distal regulatory elements for SC function.

Project description:Sustainable muscle regeneration necessitates proper maintenance of the quiescence-reversible SCs pool. Activation of p16Ink4a-associated senescence pathway during aging breaks muscle homeostasis and causes degenerative muscle disease by irreversibly dampening satellite cell (SC) self-renewal capacity. We performed microarrays analysis to compare the genome-wide gene expression profiles of wild-type and Slug-deficient SCs and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes upon deletion of Slug gene.

Project description:Background: Sarcopenia is a common and progressive skeletal muscle disorder characterized by atrophic muscle fibers and contractile dysfunction. Accumulating evidence shows that the number and function of satellite cells (SCs) decline and become impaired during aging, which may contribute to impaired regenerative capacity. A series of myokines/ small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) released from muscle fibers regulate metabolism in muscle and extramuscular tissues in an autocrine/paracrine/endocrine manner during muscle atrophy. It is still unclear whether myokines/sEVs derived from muscle fibers can affect satellite cell function during aging. Methods: Aged mice were used to investigate changes in the myogenic capacity of SCs during aging-induced muscle atrophy. The effects of atrophic myotube-derived sEVs on satellite cell differentiation were investigated by biochemical methods and immunofluorescence staining. Small RNA sequencing was performed to identify differentially expressed sEV microRNAs (miRNAs) between the control myotubes and atrophic myotubes. The target genes of the miRNA were predicted by bioinformatics analysis and verified by luciferase activity assays. The effects of identified miRNA on the myogenic capacity of SCs in vivo were investigated by intramuscular injection of adeno-associated virus (AAV) to overexpress or silence miRNA in skeletal muscle. Results: Our study showed that the myogenic capacity of SCs was significantly decreased (50%, n = 6, P < 0.001) in the tibialis anterior muscle of aged mice. We showed that atrophic myotube-derived sEVs inhibited satellite cell differentiation in vitro (n = 3, P < 0.001) and in vivo (35%, n = 6, P < 0.05). We also found that miR-690 was the most highly enriched miRNA among all the screened sEV miRNAs in atrophic myotubes [Log2 (Fold Change) = 7, P<0.001], which was verified in the atrophic muscle of aged mice (3-fold, n = 6, P < 0.001) and aged humans (2.8-fold, n = 10, P < 0.001). miR-690 can inhibit myogenic capacity of SCs by targeting myocyte enhancer factor 2, including Mef2a, Mef2c, and Mef2d, in vitro (n=3, P < 0.05) and in vivo (n=6, P < 0.05). Specific silencing of miR-690 in the muscle can promote satellite cell differentiation (n = 6, P < 0.001) and alleviate muscle atrophy in aged mice (n = 6, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Our study demonstrated that atrophic muscle fiber-derived sEV miR-690 may inhibit satellite cell differentiation by targeting myocyte enhancer factor 2 during aging.

On the contrary, SCs experience minimal replicative aging due to their low turnover. They are thus a good model to study the consequence of chronological aging of quiescent stem cells. We performed microarray analysis of quiescent and activated SCs from both young and aged mice to understand the global gene expression profile underlying stem cell properties such as quiecence and self-renewal, and to understand how the transcriptome of a quiescent stem cell pouplation changes with age. VCAM+/CD31-/CD45-/Sca1- quiescent satellite cells (QSCs) were isolated by FACS from hindlimb muscle of uninjured 2-3- or 22-24-month old mice. Activated satellite cells (ASCs) were isolated from hindlimb muscles of BaCl2-injured mice of the same age 36, 60 and 84 hours after injury using the same cell surface marker combination. YFP-expressing cells were isolated from 2-3-month old Pax7CreER/+; ROSA26eYFP/+ mice in which satellite cells are labeled geneticall by YFP expression. Total RNA was extracted from cells with the Trizol reagent according to manufacturer's instructions. RNA was then processed and assayed with Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST arrays.

Project description:Muscle Stem Cells or satellite cells (SCs) are required for muscle regeneration. In resting muscles, SCs are kept in quiescence. After injury, SCs undergo rapid activation, proliferation and differentiation to repair damaged muscles. The transcriptome alteration during SC activation is well characterized. While transcriptome is not exactly represent proteome because of post-transcriptional regulations such as miRNA induced gene silencing. However, little is known about SC proteome. We obtained quisecent SCs (QSCs) and freshly isolated SCs (fiSCs, early activated SCs) and activated SCs (ASCs) for high resolution mass spectrometry Bruker timsTOF Pro. Thus, we uncovered the QSC proteome. By comparison of QSC proteome to fiuSCs proteome or ASCs proteome, we identified the pathways that are differentially expressed between them. Forthermore, we characterized a translational regulator CPEB1 reprogrammed translation landscape for SC activation.
