The effect of an NAD+ precursor vitamin B3, niacin, on muscle transcriptomic profiles of mitochondrial myopathy patients and healthy controls

ABSTRACT: Purpose: We examined the impact of niacin on muscle gene expression in mitochondrial myopathy patients and healthy controls. Methods: Muscle transcriptomics profiles were generated using global transcriptomics analysis by RNA sequencing which was performed by the Beijing Genomic Institute (BGI) using their standard protocols Results: The pathway enrichment analysis of RNA-sequencing data indicated that phagosome formation, serine/glycine/one-carbon pathways (de novo serine biosynthesis, purine degradation, glutathione metabolism), LXR/RXR activation, eicosanoid, glycoprotein 6, atherosclerosis, iron homeostasis and cAMP-mediated signalling pathways were among the most significantly changed in patients. Only five and two of the disease associated pathways remained significantly changed after 4- and 10-month supplementation, respectively, in patients as compared to controls. The most prominent niacin-related transcriptomic change in patients’ muscle (patient 10-months on niacin vs patient baseline) was wide-spread downregulation of mTOR-dependent cytoplasmic translation, involving a large number of cytoplasmic ribosome subunits as well as translation initiation factor eIF1. In patients, niacin activated also the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signaling pathway, known to induce mitochondrial biogenesis. Niacin also led to decreased atherosclerosis signaling including lowered apolipoprotein expression in patients. The healthy control muscles showed only few changes after 4-months of niacin. To examine in detail the effects of NAD-booster niacin in the mitochondrial integrated stress response (ISRmt), we studied the effects NAD+ boosting for the expression of 24 ISRmt target genes in the patients’ muscle. The analysis confirmed wide-spread induction of these genes, but their expression was unaffected by niacin (ATF5 and its targets ASNS, TRIB3, FGF21, GDF15, MTHFD2, and MTHFD1L; de novo synthesis of serine, PSAT1, PHGDH and SHMT2; glutathione metabolism GPX3 and GSR; and unfolded protein response ER CHOP). Conclusions: These results showed that niacin modulated the expression of disease associated pathways and suppressed mTOR signalling in patients but niacin did not affect disease-related ISRmt signalling.

Project description:Recent studies on mouse and human skeletal muscle (SM) demonstrated the important link between mitochondrial function and the cellular metabolic adaptation. To identify key compensatory molecular mechanisms in response to chronic mitochondrial distress, we analyzed mice with ectopic SM respiratory uncoupling in uncoupling protein 1 transgenic (UCP1-TG) mice as model of muscle-specific compromised mitochondrial function. Here we describe a detailed metabolic reprogramming profile associated with mitochondrial perturbations in SM, triggering an increased protein turnover and amino acid metabolism with induced biosynthetic serine/1-carbon/glycine pathway and the longevity-promoting polyamine spermidine as well as the trans-sulfuration pathway. This is related to an induction of NADPH-generating pathways and glutathione metabolism as an adaptive mitohormetic response and defense against increased oxidative stress. Strikingly, consistent muscle retrograde signaling profiles were observed in acute stress states such as muscle cell starvation and lipid overload, muscle regeneration, and heart muscle inflammation, but not in response to exercise. We provide conclusive evidence for a key compensatory stress-signaling network that preserves cellular function, oxidative stress tolerance, and survival during conditions of increased SM mitochondrial distress, a metabolic reprogramming profile so far only demonstrated for cancer cells and heart muscle.-Ost, M., Keipert, S., van Schothorst, E. M., Donner, V., van der Stelt, I., Kipp, A. P., Petzke, K.-J., Jove, M., Pamplona, R., Portero-Otin, M., Keijer, J., and Klaus, S. Muscle mitohormesis promotes cellular survival via serine/glycine pathway flux. Control C57BL/6J wildtype male mice, aged 12 weeks, are compared to UCP1 transgene littermates fed purified low fat diet (BIOCLAIMS, Hoevenaars et al., Genes and Nutrition 2012) for 12 weeks . At the end, mice were sacrificed, gastrocnemius skeletal muscle was immediately dissected and snap frozen in liquid nitrogen. Total RNA was isolated, quantified and qualified, and subsequently used for global gene expression profiling using Agilent 8x60K microarrays. In total, 6 arrays of individual WT and 7 arrays of individual UCP1-TG samples were normalized, together with samples from the complete SUPERSERIES.

Project description:Septic patients treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) often develop multiple organ failure including persistent skeletal muscle dysfunction which results in the patientâs protracted recovery process. We have demonstrated that muscle mitochondrial enzyme activities are impaired in septic ICU patients resulting in decreased cellular energy which will interfere with muscle function and metabolism. Here we use detailed phenotyping and genomics to elucidate mechanisms leading to these impairments. Methodology/Principle Findings Utilising biopsy material from seventeen patients and ten age-matched controls we demonstrate that neither mitochondrial in vivo protein synthesis nor expression of mitochondrial genes are compromised. Indeed, there was partial activation of the mitochondrial biogenesis pathway involving NRF2?/GABP and its target genes TFAM, TFB1M and TFB2M yet clearly this failed to maintain mitochondrial function. We therefore utilised transcript profiling and pathway analysis of ICU patient skeletal muscle to generate insight into the molecular defects driving loss of muscle function and metabolic homeostasis. Gene ontology analysis of Affymetrix analysis demonstrated substantial loss of muscle specific genes, a global oxidative stress response related to most probably cytokine signalling, altered insulin related signalling and a substantial overlap between patients and muscle wasting/inflammatory animal models. MicroRNA 21 processing appeared defective suggesting that post-transcriptional protein synthesis regulation is altered by disruption of tissue microRNA expression. Finally, we were able to demonstrate that the phenotype of skeletal muscle in ICU patients is not merely one of inactivity, it appears to be an actively remodelling tissue, influenced by several mediators, all of which may be open to manipulation with the aim to improve clinical outcome. Conclusions/Significance This first combined protein and transcriptome based analysis of human skeletal muscle obtained from septic patients demonstrated that losses of mitochondria and muscle mass are accompanied by sustained protein synthesis (anabolic process) while dysregulation of transcription programmes appears to fail to compensate for increased damage and proteolysis. Our analysis identified both validated and novel clinically tractable targets to manipulate these failing processes and pursuit of these could lead to new potential treatments.
