Project description:Skeletal myogenic commitment of human pluripotent cells can be achieved by doxycycline-inducible expression of the transcription factor PAX7. To gain further insights on PAX7 function during this process, we performed a time course whole transcriptome analysis of differentiating H9 human embryonic stem cells from doxycycline-treated and untreated cultures. In addition, we identified the genomic binding of PAX7 in one of the selected time point (referred as PAX7+ proliferating myogenic progenitors).

Project description:Skeletal muscle harbors quiescent stem cells termed satellite cells and proliferative progenitors termed myoblasts, which play pivotal roles during muscle regeneration. However, current technology does not allow permanent capture of these cell populations in vitro. Here, we show that ectopic expression of the myogenic transcription factor MyoD, combined with exposure to small molecules, reprograms mouse fibroblasts into expandable induced myogenic progenitor cells (iMPCs). iMPCs express key skeletal muscle stem and progenitor cell markers including Pax7 and Myf5 and give rise to Dystrophin-expressing myofibers upon transplantation, a subset of which maintain Pax7 expression in vivo and sustain serial regenerative responses. Similar to satellite cells, iMPCs originate from Pax7+ cells and require Pax7 itself for maintenance. Finally, we show that iMPCs can be established from muscle tissue following small molecule exposure alone. This study thus reports on a robust approach to derive expandable myogenic stem/progenitor-like cells from multiple differentiated cell types.

Project description:Tissue engineering strategies that combine human pluripotent stem cell-derived myogenic progenitors (hPDMs) with advanced biomaterials provide promising tools for engineering 3D skeletal muscle grafts to model tissue development in vitro and promote muscle regeneration in vivo. We recently demonstrated (i) the potential for obtaining large numbers of hPDMs using a combination of two small molecules and (ii) the application of electrospun fibrin microfiber bundles for functional skeletal muscle restoration following volumetric muscle loss. In this study, we demonstrate that the biophysical cues provided by the microfiber bundles can induce unsorted hPDMs to form multinucleated myotubes that express desmin and myosin heavy chain. To reduce the batch-to-batch variability of these samples, we tested a genetic PAX7 reporter line (PAX7::GFP) to sort for more homogenous populations of hPDMs. RNA sequencing and gene set enrichment analyses confirmed that PAX7::GFP-sorted hPDMs exhibited higher expression of myogenic genes while unsorted hPDMs demonstrated increased expression of genes associated with embryonic, neural crest, and fibroadipogenic progenitor lineages. We tested engineered skeletal muscle grafts derived from either PAX7::GFP-sorted or unsorted hPDMs within in vivo skeletal muscle defects. The unsorted hPDM-derived grafts also exhibited greater fibrosis and more proinflammatory responses. In contrast, the PAX7::GFP-sorted groups had moderately high vascular infiltration, more implanted cell association with embryonic myosin heavy chain (eMHC) regions, and greater CD206:CD86 ratios compared to unsorted hPDMs and acellular fibers suggesting they induced more pro-regenerative microenvironments. These findings demonstrated some promise for the use of PAX7::GFP-sorted hPDMS on fibrin microfiber bundles and provided some insights for improving the cell-biomaterial system to stimulate more robust in vivo skeletal muscle regeneration.

Project description:Deployment of a cell-specifying enhancer repertoire by the pioneer factor Pax7 The establishment and maintenance of cell identity depends on implementation of stable cell-specific chromatin landscapes. Pioneer transcription factors establish new cell fate competences by triggering chromatin remodeling during development. Here, we used pituitary cell specification to define the salient features of pioneer action. Comparison of purified pituitary cells of different lineages showed that chromatin accessibility differs at enhancers rather than promoters. The pioneer factor Pax7 specifies one pituitary lineage identity by opening a specific repertoire of enhancers that are distinct from the myogenic targets of Pax7. Pax7 binds its pioneer targets rapidly and days before chromatin remodeling and gene activation. Finally, enhancers opened by Pax7-dependent chromatin remodeling exhibit loss of DNA methylation and they acquire long term epigenetic memory. The present work identifies enhancer pioneering as a critical feature for cell fate specification and maintenance.

Project description:Myogenic differentiation relies on Pax7 function. We used embryonic stem cells lacking functional Pax7 to follow its role in derivation of skeletal myoblasts. Microarray analysis allowed us to compare transcriptomes of undifferentiated and differentiating embryonic stem cells of two genotypes, i.e. Pax7+/+ and Pax7-/- at day 7 and 21 of culture. Undifferentiated mouse embryonic stem cells, embryiod bodies at day 7, and embryoid body outgrowths at day 21 of differentiation were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:The mechanisms by which Pax7 promotes skeletal muscle stem (satellite) cell identity are not yet understood. We have taken advantage of pluripotent stem cells wherein the induced expression of Pax7 robustly initiates the muscle program and enables the generation of muscle precursors that repopulate the satellite cell compartment upon transplantation. Pax7 binding was excluded from H3K27 tri-methylated regions, suggesting that recruitment of this factor is circumscribed by chromatin state. Further, Pax7 binding provoked localized chromatin remodeling, including the acquisition of enhancer-associated histone marks and induction of chromatin accessibility. Conversely, removal of Pax7 led to rapid reversal of these features on a subset of enhancers. Another cohort of Pax7 binding sites exhibited a durably accessible and remodeled chromatin state after Pax7 removal, and persistent enhancer accessibility was associated with subsequent binding by muscle regulatory factors. Our studies provide new insights into Pax7 and the epigenetic landscape of skeletal muscle stem cells.
