Transcriptomic profiling of mouse fibro/adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) upon melatonin treatment in vitro

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study is to investigate how melatonin-influenced promyogenic factor secreted from fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) regulate muscle regeneration and muscle cell fusion during muscle repair. We highlighted the role of melatonin in regulating crosstalk between muscle stem cells and FAPs during muscle regeneration. Mice that were treated with melatonin exhibited improved muscle regeneration and reduced intramuscular fat deposition, which were associated with enhanced myogenesis, remodeled lipid metabolism and reduced immune cell infiltration. Notably, melatonin did not exert positive effects on cell fusion and myotube formation during differentiation. Interestingly, melatonin repressed fibro-adipogenic progenitor (FAP) adipogenesis in a dose-dependent manner in vitro. Furthermore, melatonin treatment enhanced the pro-myogenic effects of FAPs, which stimulated GDF10 secretion to promote muscle cell fusion and induce myotube hypertrophy.

Project description:Fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) are emerging cellular components of the skeletal muscle regenerative environment. The alternative functional phenotype of FAPs - either supportive of muscle regeneration or promoting fibro-adipogenic degeneration - is a key determinant in the pathogenesis of muscular diseases, including Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). However, the molecular regulation of FAPs is still unknown. We show here that an "HDAC-myomiR-BAF60 variant network" regulates the functional phenotype of FAPs in dystrophic muscles of mdx mice. Combinatorial analysis of gene expression microarray and genome-wide chromatin remodeling by Nuclease accessibility (NA)-seq revealed that HDAC inhibitors de-repress a "latent" myogenic program in FAPs from dystrophic muscles at early stages of disease progression. In these cells HDAC inhibition promoted the expression of two core components of the myogenic transcriptional machinery, MyoD and BAF60C, and upregulated the myomiRs (miRs) miR-1.2, miR-133 and miR-206, which target two alternative BAF60 variants (BAF60A and B) ultimately leading to the activation of a pro-myogenic program at the expense of the fibro-adipogenic phenotype. By contrast, FAPs from dystrophic muscles at late stages of disease progression displayed resistance to HDACi-induced chromatin remodeling at myogenic loci and fail to activate the pro-myogenic phenotype. These results reveal a previously unappreciated disease stage-specific bipotency of mesenchimal cells within the regenerative environment of dystrophic muscles. Resolution of such bi-potency by epigenetic interventions, such as HDACi, provides the molecular rationale for the in situ reprogramming of target cells to promote therapeutic regeneration of dystrophic muscles. miRNA modulation upon Histone Deacetylase inhibition in Fibro-Adipogenic Progenitors (FAPs) derived from young mdx mice was evaluated by small RNA-sequencing in 2 controls and 2 treated samples
