Project description:Polycomb group of proteins (PcG) and the nuclear Lamin A are key factors in the maintenance of chromatin higher order structures required for preserving cell identity. Mutations in the Lamin A/C gene cause several diseases, belonging to the class of laminopathies, including Emery-Dreifuss Muscular Dystrophy. Nevertheless, epigenetic mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of lamin-dependent dystrophy are still largely unknown. We show that Lamin A loss causes deregulated PcG positioning in muscular stem cells followed by upregulation of adipogenic markers and induction of the senescence’s driver p16INK4a from Cdkn2a locus. This aberrant transcriptional programme causes impairment in self-renewal, loss of cell identity and premature exhaustion of quiescent satellite cell pool. Genetic ablation of Cdkn2a locus restores muscle growth and muscle stem cell properties in Lamin A/C null dystrophic mice. In conclusion, our findings suggest that Lamin A has an essential role in preserving satellite cell self-renewal capacity and indicate that Lamin A-dependent muscular dystrophy can be ascribed to intrinsic epigenetic dysfunctions of muscle stem cells

Project description:In response to skeletal muscle injury, adult myogenic stem cells, known as satellite cells, are activated and undergo proliferation and differentiation to regenerate new muscle fibers. The skeletal muscle-specific microRNA, miR-206, is up-regulated in satellite cells following muscle injury, but its role in muscle regeneration has not been defined. Here we show that skeletal muscle regeneration in response to cardiotoxin injury is impaired in mice lacking miR-206. Loss of miR-206 also accelerates and exacerbates the dystrophic phenotype of mdx mice, a model for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. MiR-206 promotes satellite cell differentiation and fusion to form multinucleated myofibers by suppressing a collection of negative regulators of myogenesis. Our findings reveal an essential role for miR-206 in satellite cell differentiation during skeletal muscle regeneration and as a modulator of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. total RNA obtained from TA muscle of mdx and 3 miR-206 KO; mdx mice at 3 months of age.

Project description:Summary: Genetic disorders of muscle cause muscular dystrophy, and are some of the most common inborn errors of metabolism. Muscle also rapidly remodels in response to training and innervation. Muscle weakness and wasting is important in such conditions as aging, critical care medicine, space flight, and diabetes. Finally, muscle can also be used to investigate systemic defects, and the compensatory mechansisms invoked by cells to overcome biochemical and genetic abnormalities. Here, we provide a 13 group data set for comparative profiling of human skeletal muscle. Groups studied are: Normal human skeletal muscle, Acute quadriplegic myopathy (AQM; critical care myopathy), Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM), Amyotophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), spastic paraplegia (SPG4; spastin), Fascioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), Emery Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (both X linked recessive emerin form; autosomal dominant Lamin A/C form), Becker muscular dystrophy (partial loss of dystrophin), Duchenne muscular dystrophy (complete loss of dystrophin), Calpain 3 (LGMD2A), dysferlin (LGMD2B), FKRP (glycosylation defect; homozygous for a missense mutation). U133A and U133B microarrays are both available. Hypothesis: This data set is able to define biochemical pathways that are either specific for a disease group, or shared between disease groups. For example, this data set has been used to determine the biochemical pathway perturbations that are shared between the two different types of Emery Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (lamin A/C, and emerin). Specific Aim: The specific aim of this study is to determine the disease-specific transcriptional profiles of these 13 patient groups, and to determine if these expression fingerprints provide either pathophysiology or diagnostic information for these diseases. Some of the groups in this large data set have been reported previously using U95A microarrays, as follows: Juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM): Tezak Z, Hoffman EP, Lutz JL, Fedczyna TO, Stephan D, Bremer EG, Krasnoselska-Riz I, Kumar A, Pachman LM.

Project description:Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is an autosomal dominant disorder linked to contractions of the D4Z4 repeat array in the subtelomeric region of chromosome 4q. By comparing genome-wide gene expression data from muscle biopsies of patients with FSHD to those of 11 other neuromuscular disorders, we intend to identify disease-specific changes which are more likely to be involved in the early stages of the disease progression. The data will help to identify pathological mechanisms involved in FSHD. Experiment Overall Design: Comparison of the profiles of FSHD to 13 other conditions for disease-specific changes. The 13 conditions are NHM (Normal healthy muscle) n=15; JDM (Juvenile dermatomyositis) n=25; HSP (Human spastic paraplegia) n=4; FSHD (facioscapulohumeral dystrophy) unaffected n=5, affected n=9; FKRP (Fukutin related protein deficiency) n=7; ED-L (Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy, lamin A/C deficiency) n=4; ED-E (Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy, emerin deficiency) n=4; DYSF (dysferlinopathy) n=10; DMD (Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy) n=10; CALP (Calpain-3 deficiency) n=10; BMD (Becker Muscular Dystrophy) n=5; AQM (Acute quadriplegic myopathy) n=5; ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) n=9.

Project description:Analysis of gene expression profile of Tibialis anterior (TA) skeletal muscle tissues with Notch1 intracellular domain (N1ICD) overexpression. Skeletal myogenesis involves sequential activation, proliferation, self-renewal/differentiation and fusion of myogenic stem cells (satellite cells). Notch signaling is known to be essential for the maintenance of satellite cells, but its function in late-stage myogenesis, i.e. post-differentiation myocytes and post-fusion myotubes, is unknown. Here we use muscle creatine kinase (MCK)-Cre to induce N1ICD expression in multinucleated myotubes. We found that myotube-specific Notch1 activation improved muscle regeneration and exercise performance of mdx mice, a model of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). Agilent microarray was performed to compare gene expression in mdx control and N1ICD-overexpressing mdx muscles. The results may provide mechanistic insights into how Notch1 activation in myotubes modulate muscle function.

Project description:The regeneration of skeletal muscle relies on satellite cells which can proliferate, differentiate and form new myofibers upon injury. Emerging evidence suggests that misregulations of satellite cell fate and function influence the severity of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). The myogenic identity and maintenance of the pool of satellite cells is determined by the transcription factor PAX7. Satellite cell proliferation and self-renewal is regulated by the circadian clock. Here, we show that the CLOCK-interacting protein, Circadian (CIPC), a negative-feedback regulator of the circadian clock, is up-regulated during myoblast differentiation. Specific deletion of CIPC in satellite cells alleviated myopathy, improved muscle function and reduced fibrosis in mdx mice. CIPC deficiency led to activation of the ERK1/2 and JNK1/2 signaling pathways, which in turn activated the transcription factor SP1 to trigger the transcription of PAX7. Therefore, CIPC is a negative regulator of satellite cell function and loss of CIPC in satellite cells promotes muscle regeneration.

Project description:Satellite cells, the stem cells of skeletal muscle tissue, hold a remarkable regeneration capacity and therapeutic potential in regenerative medicine. However, low satellite cell yield from autologous or donor-derived muscles hinders the adoption of satellite cell transplantation for the treatment of muscle diseases, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). To address this limitation, here we investigated whether satellite cells can be derived in allogeneic or xenogeneic animal hosts. First, injection of CRISPR/Cas9-corrected mouse DMD-induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into mouse blastocysts carrying an ablation system of host satellite cells gave rise to intraspecies chimeras exclusively carrying iPSC-derived satellite cells. Furthermore, injection of genetically corrected DMD-iPSCs into rat blastocysts resulted in the formation of interspecies rat-mouse chimeras harboring mouse satellite cells. Remarkably, iPSC-derived satellite cells or derivative myoblasts produced in intraspecies or interspecies chimeras restored dystrophin expression in DMD mice following intramuscular transplantation, and contributed to the satellite cell pool. Collectively, this study demonstrates the feasibility of producing therapeutically competent stem cells across divergent animal species, raising the possibility of generating human muscle stem cells in large animals for regenerative medicine purposes.

Project description:Expression of mutant lamins in human muscle causes muscular dystrophy. We have generated a drosophila model that expresses mutant lamins, modeled after those that cause disease in humans. We used affymetrix microarrays to determine the global changes in gene expression caused by mutant lamins. Dissected 3rd instar larval body wall from transgenic Drosophila expressing either a full length wildtype Lamin C, an N-terminal Lamin C truncation of the first 42 amino acids or a single amino acid substitution in Lamin C at position 489 from a G residue to a V residue under control of the Gal4-UAS. RNA was extracted from 3rd instar larval body wall expressing these mutant Lamin C transgenes and microarray analysis using Affymetrix microarrays.
