Microarray analysis of transgenic mice specifically overexpressing Dnmt3a in skeletal muscle (Dnmt3a Tg mice)

ABSTRACT: DNA methylation occurs as 5-methylcytosines mainly at cytosine-guanine dinucleotides, so-called CpG sites, and such methylation is a well-studied epigenetic mechanism for transcriptional regulation. Genomic DNA methylation patterns are established by the actions of the de novo methyltransferases Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b, and are maintained by the methyltransferase Dnmt1. Expression of Dnmt3a mRNA is relatively high in skeletal muscle, suggesting a major role in transcriptional regulation. Thus, we created transgenic mice specifically overexpressing Dnmt3a in skeletal muscle (Dnmt3a Tg mice). In this study, we performed a microarray analysis of skeletal muscle in wild-type control and Dnmt3a Tg mice. The microarray data shows upregulation of a set of slow-twitch myofiber-specific genes and downregulation of fast-twitch myofiber-specific genes in Dnmt3a-Tg muscle compared with WT muscle.

Microarray analysis of satellite cells in Dnmt3a knockout mice

Project description:DNA methylation occurs as 5-methylcytosines mainly at cytosine-guanine dinucleotides, so-called CpG sites, and such methylation is a well-studied epigenetic mechanism for transcriptional regulation. Generally, DNA methylation of the gene promoter is correlated with transcriptional repression. Genomic DNA methylation patterns are established by the actions of the de novo methyltransferases Dnmt3a and Dnmt3b, and are maintained by the methyltransferase Dnmt1. Expression of Dnmt3a mRNA is relatively high in skeletal muscle, suggesting a major role in transcriptional regulation. Also, denervation of skeletal muscle decreased expression of Dnmt3a mRNA, suggesting involvement of Dnmt3a in pathophysiology during atrophy. Decreased regeneration capacity in atrophied skeletal muscle hampers muscle mass recovery after injury and the impaired muscle function, lowers the quality of life. We found that in skeletal muscle of atrophy models, Dnmt3a was decreased. Muscle regeneration was delayed in the skeletal muscle-specific Dnmt3a knockout (Dnmt3a-KO) mice, in which Dnmt3a was deleted in skeletal muscle as well as in satellite cells, important for muscle regeneration. In this study, we used Dnmt3a-KO mice, and attempt to clarify the mechanism of reduced muscle regeneration during atrophy. The microarray data shows that expression of a Gdf/Bmp family protein Gdf5, which suppressed differentiation of satellite cells, is activated in Dnmt3a-KO mice compared with wild-type mice.

Increased global DNA methylation by Dnmt3a disrupts skeletal muscle homeostasis, promotes age-related muscle atrophy, and reduces muscle metabolic elasticity

Project description:Loss of muscle mass and function—a hallmark of skeletal muscle aging—is known as sarcopenia. Moreover, mammalian aging is reportedly driven by loss of epigenetic information. However, the effect of epigenetic alterations on skeletal muscle homeostasis is unknown. In this study, we show that chronic elevation of global DNA methylation results in a myopathy-like phenotype and age-related changes in skeletal muscle. Overexpression of muscle de novo methyltransferase 3a (Dnmt3a) increased central nucleus-positive myofibers, predominantly in fast-twitch myofibers, and shifted muscle fiber type to stress-resistant slow-twitch myofibers, accompanied by increased inflammatory and senescent signatures, decreased mitochondrial OXPHOS complex I protein level, and reduced basal autophagy in skeletal muscle. Chronic Dnmt3a overexpression decreased muscle mass and strength, and impaired tolerance to endurance exercise with age. This age-related decline in endurance exercise capacity was accompanied by an augmented inflammatory signature in a manner that is enhanced with age and promoted muscle atrophy. Network analysis identified Akt1 as a potential hub gene. Dnmt3a expression not only reduced sensitivity to starvation-induced muscle atrophy by suppressing the FoxO-regulated autophagy and ubiquitin–proteasome systems, but also reduced the restorability from starvation-induced muscle atrophy. These data suggest that increased global DNA methylation disrupts skeletal muscle homeostasis, promotes age-related muscle atrophy, and reduces muscle metabolic elasticity.

The secreted factor TSK maintains slow-twitch myofiber integrity and exercise endurance and contributes to muscle regeneration

Project description:Mammalian skeletal muscle contains heterogenous myofibers with different contractile and metabolic properties that sustain muscle mass and endurance capacity. The transcriptional regulators that govern these myofiber gene programs have been elucidated. However, the hormonal cues that direct the specification of myofiber types and muscle endurance remain largely unknown. Here we uncover the secreted factor Tsukushi (TSK) as an extracellular signal that is required for maintaining muscle mass, strength, and endurance capacity, and contributes to muscle regeneration. Mice lacking TSK exhibited reduced grip strength and impaired exercise capacity. Muscle transcriptomic analysis revealed that TSK deficiency results in a remarkably selective impairment in the expression of myofibrillar genes characteristic of slow-twitch muscle fibers that is associated with abnormal neuromuscular junction formation. AAV-mediated overexpression of TSK failed to rescue these myofiber defects in adult mice, suggesting that the effects of TSK on myofibers are likely restricted to certain developmental stages. Finally, mice lacking TSK exhibited diminished muscle regeneration following cardiotoxin-induced muscle injury. These findings support a crucial role of TSK as a hormonal cue in the regulation of contractile gene expression, endurance capacity, and muscle regeneration.

Effect of ATF4 overexpression on mouse skeletal muscle mRNA levels

Project description:Fasting increases the level of skeletal muscle ATF4 mRNA, which promotes skeletal myofiber atrophy. To begin to determine the mechanism of ATF4-mediated myofiber atrophy, we compared the effects of fasting and ATF4 overexpression on global skeletal muscle mRNA expression in C57BL/6 mice.

The interaction between DNMT3A with H3Kc36me2 modified nucleosomes

Project description:DNA methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) plays a critical role in establishing and maintaining DNA methylation patterns, essential for the dynamic organization of vertebrate genomes. However, the mechanisms underlying DNMT3A1's recruitment and function within different chromatin environments remain unclear. We find that DNMT3A interacts with modified nucleosomes through multivalent interactions, involving both direct binding to chromatin features and site-specific post-translational histone modifications.
