The super-healing MRL strain promotes muscle growth in muscular dystrophy through a regenerative extracellular matrix

ABSTRACT: Genetic background shifts the severity of muscular dystrophy. In mice, the DBA/2J strain confers a more severe muscular dystrophy phenotype, whereas the Murphy’s Roth Large (MRL) strain has “super-healing” properties that reduce fibrosis. A comparative analysis of the Sgcg null model of Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy in the DBA/2J versus MRL strain showed the MRL background supported greater myofiber regeneration with reduced structural degradation of muscle. Transcriptomic profiling of dystrophic muscle in the DBA/2J and MRL strains indicated strain-dependent expression of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and TGF-b signaling genes. To investigate the MRL ECM, cellular components were removed from dystrophic muscle sections to generate decellularized “myoscaffolds”. Decellularized myoscaffolds from dystrophic mice in the protective MRL strain had significantly less deposition of collagen and matrix-bound TGF-b1 and TGF-b3 throughout the matrix. Dystrophic myoscaffolds from the MRL background were enriched in myokines. C2C12 myoblasts were seeded onto decellularized matrices from Sgcg-/- MRL and Sgcg-/- DBA/2J matrices. Acellular myoscaffolds from the dystrophic MRL background induced myoblast differentiation and growth compared to dystrophic myoscaffolds from the DBA/2J matrices. These studies establish that the MRL background also generates its effect through a highly regenerative ECM, which is active even in muscular dystrophy.

Muscle H3K27ac landscape remodeling with glucocorticoid steroid regimens

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy is caused by genetic defects in the gene encoding dystrophin and leads to progressive muscle degeneration. Glucocorticoid steroids are current mainstay pharmacological regimen to decrease muscle inflammation and prolong the ambulatory period in these patients, but daily intake of glucocorticoids like prednisone and deflazacort causes adverse side effects like osteoporosis, adrenal suppression, insulin resistance and obesity. Intermittent steroid dosing has been proposed as alternative to maintain benefits and limit side effects, but a detailed understanding of the mechanisms underpinning the regimen-specific effects in muscle is still missing. Here we explore how once-daily versus once-weekly prednisone (4 week-long treatment) affect the epigenomic landscape in mdx mouse muscle (genetic model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy; DBA/2J background) through H3K27 acetylation profiles.

Expression data from thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages from 129S6/SvEvTac and DBA2/J mice

Project description:Strain differences influence susceptibility to atherosclerosis. Apolipoprotein E-null mice on a DBA/2J genetic background (DBA-apoE) are highly susceptible to atherosclerosis in the aortic root area compared with those on a 129S6/SvEvTac background (129-apoE). To explore strain-specific differences affecting the susceptibility to atherosclerosis, we performed microarray analysis of macrophages from wild type mice of each strains.

Jarrah2014 - mathematical model of the immune response in muscle degeneration and subsequent regeneration in Duchenne muscular dystrophy in mdx mice

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic disease that results in the death of affected boys by early adulthood.The genetic defect responsible for DMD has been known for over 25 years, yet at present there is neither cure nor effective treatment for DMD. During early disease onset, the mdx mouse has been validated as an animal model for DMD and use of this model has led to valuable but incomplete insights into the disease process. For example, immune cells are thought to be responsible for a significant portion of muscle cell death in the mdx mouse; however, the role and time course of the immune response in the dystrophic process have not been well described. In this paper we constructed a simple mathematical model to investigate the role of the immune response in muscle degeneration and subsequent regeneration in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Our model suggests that the immune response contributes substantially to the muscle degeneration and regeneration processes. Furthermore, the analysis of the model predicts that the immune system response oscillates throughout the life of the mice, and the damaged fibers are never completely cleared.

Alcohol and fear conditioning produce strain-specific changes in the dorsal hippocampal transcriptome of adolescent C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mice

Project description:Adolescent sensitivity to alcohol is predictive of later alcohol use and is influenced by genetic background. Data from our laboratory suggested that adolescent C57BL/6J and DBA/2J inbred mice differed in susceptibility to dorsal hippocampus-dependent contextual fear learning deficits after acute alcohol exposure. To investigate the biological underpinnings of this strain difference, we examined dorsal hippocampus gene expression via RNA-sequencing after alcohol and/or fear conditioning across male and female C57BL/6J and DBA/2J adolescents. Strains exhibited dramatic differences in dorsal hippocampal gene expression. Specifically, C57BL/6J and DBA/2J strains differed in 3526 transcripts in males and 2675 transcripts in females. We identified pathways likely to be involved in mediating alcohol’s effects on learning, including networks associated with Chrna7 and Fmr1. These findings provide insight into the mechanisms underlying strain differences in alcohol’s effects on learning and suggest that different biological networks are recruited for learning based on genetics, sex, and alcohol exposure.

Gene profile of dystrophic cardiac progenitor cells

Project description:Cardiac resident stem/progenitor cells are intensively studied as a potential therapeutic tool for cardiomyopathies. While surface marker expression and ability to generate cardiomyocytes have been characterized in some detail for several types of these progenitors, little is known on how their cardiac differentiation is regulated. Beta sarcoglycan null (bSG KO) mice are a model for limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2E (LGMD2E), and are characterized by muscular dystrophy and progressive dilated cardiomyopathy. In the present study we isolated and characterized cardiac progenitors (mesoangioblasts) from the small vessels of neonatal hearts bSG KO mice and unexpectedly observed that they differentiate spontaneously into skeletal muscle fibers both in vitro and when transplanted in regenerating muscles and infarcted hearts. The micro array data showed that dystrophic cardiac progenitor and myogenic cells (C2C12) share similar gene expression profile. Keywords: Beta sarcoglycan null mice, muscular dystrophy, cardiac mesoangioblasts, myogenic differentiation Biological triplicates of cardiac wild-type and dystrophic mesoangioblasts isolated from different heart region (atrium, ventricle, aorta) were compared. C2C12 cells were used as positive control for myogenic differentiation.

Early gene expression differences in inbred mice predict susceptibility to spontaneous pulmonary adenomas

Project description:We examined if gene expression profiles differed between healthy (tumor-free) mice of strains that are known to have different pulmonary adenoma susceptibility (severity and frequency). Three females of 11 week old mice of 9 (129S1/SvlmJ, A/J, BALB/cJ, C3H/HeJ, C57BL/6J, C57L/J, DBA/2J, KK/HlJ, and MRL/MpJ) strains were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on GeneChip® Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Arrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). Each strain was compared to all other strains (36 unique comparisons total) to identify the most common differentially expressed probe sets among the population. The most common probesets were then compared between strain groups (increased vs. decreased spontaneous pulmonary adenoma frequency and severity).

Expression and Splicing Analysis of Myotonic Dystrophy and Other Dystrophic Muscle

Project description:The prevailing patho-mechanistic paradigm for myotonic dystrophy (DM) is that the aberrant presence of embryonic isoforms is responsible for many, if not most, aspects of the pleiotropic disease phenotype. In order to identify such aberrantly expressed isoforms in skeletal muscle of DM type 1 (DM1) and type 2 (DM2) patients, we utilized the Affymetrix exon array to characterize the largest collection of DM samples analyzed to date, and included non-DM dystrophic muscle samples (NMD) as disease controls. For the exon array profiling on the Human Exon 1.0 ST array (Affymetrix Santa Clara, CA) we used a panel of 28 skeletal muscle biopsies from DM1 (n=8), DM2 (n=10), Becker muscular dystrophy, BMD, (n=3), Duchenne muscular dystrophy, DMD (n=1), Tibial muscular dystrophy, TMD, (n=2) and normal skeletal muscle (n=4). Normal control RNAs were purchased commercially. .CEL files were generated with a pre-commercial version of the Affymetrix processing software, and the headers might be non-standard. In our lab, users of the Partek software could use them, whereas users of GeneSpring had to modify the header information.
