The transcription factor NF-Y participates in stem cell fate decision and regeneration in adult skeletal muscle

ABSTRACT: The transcription factor NF-Y promotes cell proliferation and often loses its activity during differentiation through the regulation of NF-YA, the DNA binding subunit of the complex. In stem cell compartments, the shorter NF-YA splice variant (NF-YAs) is abundantly expressed and sustains their expansion. Here, we report that satellite cells, the stem cell population of adult skeletal muscle necessary for its growth and regeneration, express uniquely the longer NF-YA isoform (NF-YAl), majorly associated with cell differentiation. Through the generation of a conditional knock out mouse model that selectively ablates NF-YA in satellite cells, we demonstrate that NF-YA expression, and hence NF-Y activity, is fundamental to preserve the pool of muscle stem cells. Moreover, NF-Y supports their commitment to differentiation and ensures robust regenerative response to muscle injury. Gene expression profiling highlights an unexpected role for NF-Y in stem cell biology and opens a new scenario for NF-Y activity that is dispensable for muscle stem cell proliferation but required for efficient myogenic differentiation.

RNA-Sequencing of primary myoblasts from mice with a satellite cell specific knockout of the histone demthylase UTX/KDM6A

Project description:The KDM6 histone demethylases (UTX/KDM6A and JMJD3/KDM6B) mediate removal of repressive histone H3K27me3 marks to establish transcriptionally permissive chromatin. Loss of UTX in female mice is embryonic lethal. Unexpectedly, male UTX-null mice escape embryonic lethality due to expression of UTY, a paralog lacking H3K27-demethylase activity. This suggests that UTX plays an enzyme-independent role in development, and challenges the need for active H3K27-demethylation in vivo. However, the requirement for active H3K27-demethylation in stem cell-mediated tissue regeneration remains untested. Using an inducible mouse knockout that ablates UTX in satellite cells, we show that active H3K27-demethylation is necessary for muscle regeneration. Indeed, loss of UTX in satellite cells blocks myofiber regeneration in both male and female mice. Furthermore, we demonstrate that UTX mediates muscle regeneration through its H3K27-demethylase activity using a chemical inhibitor, and a demethylase-dead UTX knock-in mouse. Mechanistically, dissection of the muscle regenerative process revealed that UTX is required for expression of the transcription factor Myogenin that drives differentiation of muscle progenitors. Thus, we have identified a critical role for the enzymatic activity of UTX in activating muscle-specific gene expression during myofiber regeneration, revealing for the first time that active H3K27-demethylation has a physiological role in vivo. Satellite cells were sorted based on Cre-dependent expression of TdT reporter gene. Sorted UTXmKO or UTX WT satellite cells were then induced to differentiate for 24 hrs. RNA was then isolated and subjected to RNA-Seq analysis.

Increased activity of canonical NF-kB signaling in muscle fibers alters the satellite cell niche and restrains muscle stem cell function during aging

Project description:It has been known for some time that muscle repair potential becomes increasingly compromised with advancing age, and that this age-related defect is associated with reduced activity of muscle satellite cells and with the presence of chronic, low grade inflammation in the muscle. Working from the hypothesis that a heightened inflammatory tone in aged muscle could contribute to poor regenerative capacity, we developed genetic systems to inducibly alter inflammatory gene expression in satellite cells or muscle fibers by modulation of the activity of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), a master transcriptional regulator of inflammation whose activity is upregulated in many cell types and tissues with age. These studies revealed that activation of NF-κB activity in muscle fibers, but not in satellite cells, drives muscle dysfunction and that lifelong inhibition of NF-κB activity in myofibers preserves muscle regenerative potential with aging via cell-non-autonomous effects on satellite cell function. Further analysis of differential gene expression in muscles with varying NF-κB activity identified a secreted phospholipase (PLA2G5) as a myofiber-expressed NF-κB-regulated gene that governs muscle regenerative capacity with age. Together, these data suggest a model in which NF-κB activation in muscle fibers increases PLA2G5 expression and drives the impairment in regenerative function characteristic of aged muscle. Importantly, inhibition of NF-κB function reverses this impairment, suggesting that FDA-approved drugs, like salsalate, a prodrug form of sodium salicylate, may provide new therapeutic avenues for elderly patients with reduced capacity to recover effectively from muscle injury.

Muscle satellite cell specific proteasome deficient mice

Project description:Adult muscle stem cells (satellite cells) are required for adult skeletal muscle regeneration. A proper balance between quiescence, proliferation, and differentiation is essential for the maintenance of the satellite cell pool and their regenerative function. Although the ubiquitin-proteasome is required for most protein degradation in mammalian cells, how its dysfunction affects tissue stem cells remains unclear. Here, we investigated the function of the proteasome in satellite cells using mice lacking the crucial proteasomal component, Rpt3. Ablation of Rpt3 in satellite cells decreased proteasome activity. Proteasome dysfunction in Rpt3-deficient satellite cells impaired their ability to proliferate, survive and differentiate, resulting in defective muscle regeneration. We found that inactivation of proteasomal activity induced proliferation defects and apoptosis in satellite cells. Mechanistically, insufficient proteasomal activity upregulated the p53 pathway, which caused cell-cycle arrest. Our findings delineate a critical function of the proteasome system in maintaining satellite cells in adult muscle.

A chromatin-modifying function of JNK during stem cell differentiation

Project description:Signaling mediates cellular responses to extracellular stimuli. The c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase (JNK) pathway exemplifies one sub-group of Mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases, which besides established functions in stress response, also contributes to developmental processes by an unknown mechanism 1-4. Here we show by genome-wide location analysis that JNK binds directly to a large set of active promoters during differentiation of stem cells to neurons. Bound promoters are not enriched for the canonical AP?1 target sites yet for binding motifs for the transcription factor NF?Y. NF-Y indeed occupies these predicted sites genome-wide in vivo and overexpression of a dominant-negative form of NF?YA reduces JNK presence on chromatin. Histone H3 is a substrate for JNK kinase activity in vitro and JNK bound promoters are preferentially enriched for Histone H3 phosphorylated at Serine 10. Inhibition of JNK signaling in postmitotic neurons reduces this chromatin phosphorylation as well as expression of target genes. Together this establishes MAP kinase binding and function on chromatin at a novel class of target genes during stem cell differentiation. Our Dataset comprises 5 ChIP-seq samples using chromatin from ES, NP and TN cells which was immunoprecipitated, using antibodies against H3K27me3, H3K4me2, RNA Pol II, JNK1/3 and NF-YA. From the same cells we generated biological replicates of RNA-seq data.

The Transcription factor NF-YA is Crucial for Neural Progenitor Maintenance during Brain Development

Project description:In contrast to stage-specific transcription factors, the role of ubiquitous transcription factors in neuronal development remains a matter of scrutiny. Here, we demonstrated that a ubiquitous factor NF-Y is essential for neural progenitor maintenance during brain morphogenesis. Deletion of the NF-YA subunit in neural progenitors by using nestin-cre transgene in mice resulted in significant abnormalities in brain morphology, including a thinner cerebral cortex and loss of striatum during embryogenesis. Detailed analyses revealed a progressive decline in multiple neural progenitors in the cerebral cortex and ganglionic eminences, accompanied by induced apoptotic cell death and reduced cell proliferation. In neural progenitors, the NF-YA short isoform lacking exon 3 is dominant and co-expressed with cell cycle genes. ChIP-seq analysis from the cortex during early corticogenesis revealed preferential binding of NF-Y to the cell cycle genes, some of which were confirmed to be downregulated following NF-YA deletion. Notably, the NF-YA short isoform disappears and is replaced by its long isoform during neuronal differentiation. Forced expression of the NF-YA long isoform in neural progenitors resulted in a significant decline in neuronal count, possibly due to the suppression of cell proliferation. Collectively, we elucidated a critical role of the NF-YA short isoform in maintaining neural progenitors, possibly by regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis. Moreover, we identified an isoform switch in NF-YA within the neuronal lineage in vivo, which may explain the stage-specific role of NF-Y during neuronal development.

miR-206 modulates the pathogenesis of muscular dystrophy of mdx mice

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.

Histone-fold domain protein NF-Y promotes chromatin accessibility for cell type-specific master transcription factors [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Cell type-specific master transcription factors (MTFs) play vital roles in defining cell identity and function. However, the roles ubiquitous factors play in the specification of cell identity remain underappreciated. Here we show that all three subunits of the ubiquitous heterotrimeric CCAAT-binding NF-Y complex are required for the maintenance of embryonic stem cell (ESC) identity, and establish NF-Y as a novel component of the core pluripotency network. Genome-wide occupancy and transcriptomic analyses in ESCs and neurons reveal that not only does NF-Y regulate genes with housekeeping functions through cell type-invariant promoter-proximal binding, but also genes required for cell identity by binding to cell type-specific enhancers with MTFs. Mechanistically, NF-Y's distinctive DNA-binding mode promotes MTF binding at enhancers by facilitating a permissive chromatin conformation. Our studies unearth a novel function for NF-Y in promoting chromatin accessibility, and suggest that other proteins with analogous structural and DNA-binding properties may function in similar ways. Genome-wide mapping of NF-YA, NF-YB, and NF-YC subunits of the NF-Y complex in mouse ESCs, and microarray gene expression profiling of control knockdown (KD), NF-YA KD, NF-YB KD, NF-YC KD, and NF-YA/NF-YB/NF-YC triple KD ESCs.
