Individual transcriptomic response to strength-training for myotonic dystrophy type 1 patients

ABSTRACT: Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most common form of adult-onset muscular dystrophy, is caused by a CTG expansion resulting in significant transcriptomic dysregulation that leads to muscle weakness and wasting. While strength training is clinically beneficial in DM1, molecular effects had not been studied. To determine whether training rescued transcriptomic defects, RNA-sequencing was performed on vastus lateralis samples from nine male DM1 patients before and after a 12-week strength training program and six male controls who did not undergo training. Differential gene expression and alternative splicing analysis were correlated with the one-repetition maximum strength evaluation method (leg extension, leg press, hip abduction, and squat). While training program-induced improvements in splicing were similar among most individuals, rescued splicing events varied considerably between individuals. Gene expression improvements were highly varied between individuals with the percentage of differentially expressed genes rescued after training strongly correlated with strength improvements. Evaluating transcriptome changes individually revealed responses to the training not evident from grouped analysis, likely due to disease heterogeneity and individual exercise response differences. Our analyses indicate that transcriptomic changes are associated with clinical outcomes in DM1 patients undergoing training and these changes are often specific to the individual and should be analyzed accordingly.

Dynamics and variability of transcriptomic dysregulation in congenital myotonic dystrophy during childhood development

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is the most common form of adult-onset muscular dystrophy caused by expansion of a CTG repeat microsatellite within DMPK. In 10-20% of individuals with DM1, symptomatic onset begins at birth; these patients are classified as congenital myotonic dystrophy (CDM). While dysregulation of RNA metabolism, specifically alternative splicing, has been linked to disease pathology in adult-onset DM1, little is known about the mechanism of CDM. Biopsies from individuals (CDM), age range 0.04-16 years, were subjected to total RNA-seq to quantify the transcriptomic dysregulation throughout pediatric development. To achieve this, they were compared against age matched pediatric controls which revealed a triphasic pattern of dysregulation not before seen observed in CDM. CDM samples were also compared to adult-onset (DM1) individuals which showcased a shared disease signature to seen in all individuals with myotonic dystrophy irrespective of disease age of onset.

Aerobic training induces physiological and cellular benefits in myotonic dystrophy type 1 patients

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a progressive life-limiting neuromuscular disorder with no available cure. In the current study, we examined the extent to which 12-weeks of cycle ergometry can recuperate clinical and physiological metrics in DM1 patients. Furthermore, we studied the underlying mechanisms through which exercise elicits benefits in skeletal muscle. DM1 was associated with impaired muscle function, fitness, lung capacity, and mitochondrial function. Exercise training induced several clinical, physical, and metabolic advantages in DM1 patients. We highlight that exercise-induced molecular and cellular alterations in patients do not conform with previously published data in murine models and propose an alternative mechanism. Lastly, we briefly outline the involvement of small nucleolar RNAs as a novel component within the DM1 pathophysiology. Taken together, our data supports the efficacy of aerobic training to mitigate the relentless progression of DM1 in individuals affected.

RNA sequencing of skeletal muscle of myotonic dystrophic (DM1) patients

Project description:Introduction: Myotonic dystrophy of type 1 (DM1), the most common dystrophy in adults, is an autosomal dominant inherited disease, affecting around 1 in 8000 person. Patients suffering from DM1 develop essentially muscle disorders such as myotonia, muscle weakness, muscle loss and atrophy. The disease is caused by the mutation of the DMPK "Dystrophia Myotonica Protein Kinase" gene. The mutation correspond to an abnormally large expansion of CTG tri-nucleotides repeats located in the 3'-untranslated region of this gene. Expanded CTG repeats are normally transcribed, but accumulates in RNA aggregates that sequester RNA-binding proteins such as the splicing regulator MBNL1. Consequently, due to MBNL1 sequestration, DM1 is characterized by aberrant splicing of a wide number of mRNA, which are themselves responsible for the symptoms observed in the disease. Purpose: To determine as much as possible novel splicing misregulations taking place in DM1 skeletal muscle, we performed a paired-end RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) using muscles samples of normal individuals (CTRL, n=3) versus muscles of DM1 patients (DM1, n=3). The data was analyzed by a bioinformatical software, called MISO, in order to map the alternative splicing changes between normal and DM1 muscle. The aim of this study was to get a broad and precise view of the splicing changes occurring in DM1 muscle.

Increased Muscleblind levels by chloroquine treatment improves myotonic dystrophy type 1 phenotypes in in vitro and in vivo models

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a life-threatening and chronically debilitating neuromuscular disease caused by the expansion of a CTG trinucleotide repeat in the 3'UTR of the DMPK gene. The mutant RNA forms insoluble structures capable of sequestering RNA binding proteins of the Muscleblind-like (MBNL) family, which ultimately originates phenotypes. In this work we demonstrate that treatment with the anti-autophagic drug chloroquine in Drosophila and mouse (HSALR) models, and patient-derived myoblasts, was sufficient to upregulate MBNL1 and 2 proteins. Extra Muscleblind was functional at the molecular level and improved splicing events regulated by MBNLs in all disease models. In vivo, chloroquine rescued locomotion and average crossectional muscle area, and extended median survival of DM1 flies. In HSALR mice the drug recovered muscular strength and histopathology signs, and reduced myotonia grade. Taken together these results offer a novel means to replenish the critically low levels of MBNLs in DM1.

Alternative splicing and gene expression in a mouse model of myotonic dystrophy

Project description:Distinct RNA-mediated impacts on alternative splicing and extracellular matrix gene expression in a mouse model of myotonic dystrophy. Myotonic dystrophy (DM1) is associated with expression of expanded CTG DNA repeats as RNA (CUGexp RNA). To test whether CUGexp RNA creates a global splicing defect, we compared skeletal muscle of two mouse DM1 models, one expressing a CTGexp transgene, and another homozygous for a defective Mbnl1 gene. Strong correlation in splicing changes for ~100 new Mbnl1-regulated exons indicates loss of Mbnl1 explains >80% of the splicing pathology due to CUGexp RNA. In contrast, only about half of mRNA level changes can be attributed to loss of Mbnl1, indicating CUGexp RNA has Mbnl1-independent effects, particularly on mRNAs for extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. We propose that CUGexp RNA causes two separate effects: loss of Mbnl1 function, disrupting splicing, and loss of another function that disrupts ECM mRNA regulation, possibly mediated by MBNL2. These findings reveal unanticipated similarities between DM1 and other muscular dystrophies. MBNL1 knockout and HSALR mice on FVB background. To test whether CUGexp RNA creates a global splicing defect, we compared skeletal muscle of two mouse DM1 models, one expressing a CTGexp transgene, and another homozygous for a defective Mbnl1 gene. These samples were compared to the skeletal muscle of a wildtype mouse.

Distinct Pathological Signatures in Human Cellular Models of Myotonic Dystrophy Subtypes

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is the most common autosomal dominant muscular dystrophy and encompasses both skeletal muscle and cardiac complications. Myotonic dystrophy is nucleotide repeat expansion disorder in which type 1 (DM1) is due to a trinucleotide repeat expansion on chromosome 19 and type 2 (DM2) arises from a tetranucleotide repeat expansion on chromosome 3. Developing representative models of myotonic dystrophy in animals has been challenging due to instability of nucleotide repeat expansions, especially for DM2 which is characterized by nucleotide repeat expansions often greater than 5000 copies. To investigate mechanisms of human DM, we generated cellular models of DM1 and DM2. We used regulated MyoD expression to reprogram urine-derived cells into myotubes. In this cell model, we found impaired dystrophin expression, MBNL foci, and aberrant splicing in DM1 but not in DM2 cells. We generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) from healthy controls, DM1 and DM2 subjects and differentiated these into cardiomyocytes. DM1 and DM2 cells displayed an increase in RNA foci concomitant with cellular differentiation. IPSC-derived cardiomyocytes from DM1 but not DM2 had aberrant splicing and MBNL sequestration. High resolution imaging revealed tight association between MBNL clusters and RNA FISH foci in DM1. Ca2+ transients differed between DM1 and DM2 IPSC-derived cardiomyocytes and from healthy control cells. RNA-sequencing from DM1 and DM2 iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes both altered gene expression as well as distinct splicing patterns as differential between DM1 and DM2. Together these data support that DM1 and DM2, despite some shared clinical and molecular features, have distinct pathological signatures.

Comparative analysis of Mbl attenuation and CUG non-coding repeats expression in Drosophila larval muscles

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a neuro-muscular disorder caused by CTG triplet expansion in the 3-UTR of the DMPK gene. Mutated transcripts aggregate in muscle nuclei and sequester the MBNL1 splicing factor. To assess the involvement of Mbl sequestration on transcriptpion deregulation in DM1, we performed genome wide analyses of gene expression of DM1 Drosophila model in three different genetic contexts: Mef>mblRNAi, Mef>600CTG, Mef>960CTG vs. Mef>lacZ control line.

RNA-targeting Cas9 corrects molecular and physiological features in pre-clinical model of myotonic dystrophy type 1

Project description:In this Study, we used RNA-targeting Cas9 (RCas9) to reverse characteristic Myotonic Dystrophy (DM1) cellular phenotypes such as elimination of RNA foci, MBNL relocalization, and reversal of transcriptome-wide splicing in a mouse model of myotonic Dystrophy (DM1). Furthermore we show that gene expression is not altered with RCas9 treatment in WT mice with or without treatment with immunosuppression

Effect of the CTG repeat expansion on RNA splicing in children with congenital myotonic dystrophy

Project description:Congenital myotonic dystrophy (CDM) is the most severe form of myotonic dystrophy type-1 (DM1). In adult DM1, dysregulation of alternative splicing of many transcripts results in the disease pathology. In CDM, the degree of aberrant splicing is not known, nor is it understood which transcripts are altered. Muscle biopsies were obtained from children with CDM, adults with DM1, healthy adult controls, and pathologically normal pediatric muscle. RNA was isolated and paired-end RNA-Seq was performed. Analysis used MAJIQ to generate percent spliced in (PSI) values. Sample sets were analyzed with Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to identify splicing patterns. 11 muscle biopsies from children with CDM (age 2 month-16 years), 9 pediatric controls (age 1 month-13 years), 16 adult DM1 patients (ages 29-57), and 6 adult healthy controls (ages 19-28) were used for analysis. MAJIQ identified 2266 splicing events with adequate read depth and a PSI>0.15. WGCNA identified 4 patterns of splicing. The majority of the splicing events were the same in cases of CDM and DM1, while a subset of splicing changes were unique to CDM, many (e.g., PALLD) specific to development. The relative expression of RNA splicing factors with age may account for differences in the splicing patterns in CDM and DM1. Children with CDM have the RNA splicing events previously identified in adults with DM1, despite a divergent phenotype. There are also a minority of splicing events that are specific to CDM, largely related to transcripts regulating development.

Overexpression of the non-muscle RBFOX2 isoform triggers cardiac conduction defects in myotonic dystrophy

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a multisystemic genetic disorder caused by a CTG trinucleotide repeat expansion in the 3′ untranslated region of DMPK gene. Heart dysfunctions occur in nearly 80% of DM1 patients and are the second leading cause of disease-related deaths, yet, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Herein, we report that upregulation of a non-muscle splice isoform of RNA binding protein RBFOX2 in DM1 heart tissue—due to altered splicing factor and microRNA activities—induces the characteristic cardiac conduction defects detected in DM1 individuals. Mice engineered to express the non-muscle RBFOX2 isoform in heart via tetracycline- inducible transgenesis, or CRISPR/Cas9 targeted genome editing, reproduced DM1- related cardiac-conduction delay and spontaneous episodes of arrhythmia. Furthermore, by integrating RNA binding with cardiac transcriptome datasets of DM1 patients, and mice expressing the non-muscle RBFOX2 isoform, we identified a core network of RBFOX2-driven splicing defects in sodium, potassium, and calcium channels that can alter their rate of ion diffusion and electrophysiological properties. Thus, our results uncover a trans-dominant role for an aberrantly expressed RBFOX2 isoform in DM1 cardiac pathogenesis.
