Transcriptomic analysis of fetal epaxial muscle fibers from wildtype and dyW/dyW mice at embryonic day 17.5

ABSTRACT: LAMA2-congenital muscular dystrophy (LAMA2-CMD) is the most common congenital muscular dystrophy and is triggered by mutations in LAMA2, coding for laminin α2 chain. Several phenotypes have been associated with LAMA2-CMD, including inflammation, fibrosis and increased oxidative stress. However, it is not yet known what mechanisms are faulty, right at disease onset, which in the mouse model of LAMA2-CMD dyW/dyW has been previously established to occur between embryonic days (E) 17.5 and E18.5. This transcriptomic analysis of fetal muscle fibers perfomed at E17.5 provides critical information regarding the genes and pathways that are altered in LAMA2-CMD right at the onset of the disease.

RNA-deep sequencing (RNA-Seq) analysis of dy2J/dy2J (Lama2-CMD mouse model), mdx (DMD mouse model) and Wild-type skeletal muscles

Project description:Congenital muscular dystrophy type-1A (Lama2-CMD) and Duchenne Muscular dystrophy (DMD) result from deficiencies of laminin-α2 and dystrophin proteins, respectively. Although both proteins strengthen the sarcolemma, they are implicated in clinically distinct phenotypes. We used RNA-deep sequencing (RNA-Seq) of dy2J/dy2J, Lama2-CMD mouse model, skeletal muscle at 8 weeks of age to elucidate disease pathophysiology. This study is the first report of dy2J/dy2J model whole transcriptome profile. RNA-Seq of the mdx mouse model of DMD and WT mouse was carried as well in order to enable a novel comparison of dy2J/dy2J to mdx. A large group of shared differentially expressed genes (DEG) were found in dy2J/dy2J and mdx models (1,834 common DEG, (FDR) < 0.05). Enrichment pathway analysis using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) showed enrichment of inflammation, fibrosis, cellular movement, migration and proliferation of cells, apoptosis and necrosis in both mouse models (p-values 3E-10 – 9E-37). Via Canonical pathway analysis; Actin cytoskeleton, Integrin, ILK, NF-kB, Renin-angiotensin, calcium signaling were also enriched and upregulated in both models (FDR<0.05). Interestingly, significant downregulation of Pax7 was detected in dy2J/dy2J compared to upregulation of this key regeneration gene in mdx mice. Pax3 and Mamstr genes were also downregulated in dy2J/dy2J compared to WT mice. These results may explain the distinct disease course and severity in these models. While the mdx model at that stage shows massive regeneration, the dy2J/dy2J shows progressive dystrophic process. Our data deepen our understanding of the molecular pathophysiology and suggest new targets for additional therapies to upregulate regeneration in Lama2-CMD.

microRNA profiling of muscular dystrophies

Project description:In this study, we aim to identify common miRNA signatures in the pathogenesis of different NMD groups (Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Megaconial Congenital Muscular Dystrophy (CMD), Ullrich CMD and alpha-dystroglycanopathy) (abbreviated as D, M, U, and A, respectively) each caused by mutations in different genes encoding proteins with distinct roles. For this purpose, we isolated miRNAs from the skeletal muscle tissues of three patients from four disease groups and three control individuals (15 individuals in total) and we performed miRNA microarray method (Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA 4.0 Array). In order to find out differentially expressed miRNAs in patients, we analyzed raw data by two different databases. Differentially expressed miRNAs that were found to be statistically significant by using both the programs (with parameters, fold change ≥2.0 and FDR=0 for MeV-SAM analysis; and p<0.05 for TAC-ANOVA analysis) were identified as the potential miRNA candidates.

Mechanisms associated with systemic effects of cancer

Project description:Cancer is considered as a disease of a specific organ, but its effects are felt throughout the body. The systemic effects of cancer can lead to weakness in muscles and heart, which hastens cancer-associated death. miR-486 is a myogenic microRNA and its reduced expression in skeletal muscle is observed in muscular dystrophy. Muscle-specific transgenic expression of miR-486 using muscle creatine kinase promoter (MCK-miR-486) partially rescues skeletal muscle defects in muscular dystrophy animal models. We had previously demonstrated reduced circulating and skeletal muscle levels of miR-486 in several cancer types and lower miR-486 levels correlated with skeletal muscle defects and functional limitations in mammary tumor models. Therefore, skeletal muscle defects induced by cancer could resemble defects observed in various dystrophies, which could be reversed through skeletal muscle expression of miR-486. We performed functional limitations studies and biochemical analysis of skeletal muscles of MMTV-Neu transgenic mice that mimic HER2+ breast cancer and MMTV-PyMT transgenic mice that mimic luminal subtype B breast cancer and these mice crossed to MCK-miR-486 transgenic mice. miR-486 significantly prevented tumor-induced reduction in muscle contraction force, grip strength, and rotarod performance in MMTV-Neu, but not in MMTV-PyMT mice. In MMTV-Neu model, miR-486 reversed several of the cancer-induced changes in skeletal muscle including loss of p53, phospho-AKT, and phospho-laminin alpha 2 (LAMA2) and gain of phosphorylation of the pre-mRNA processing factor hnRNPA0 and the splicing factor SRSF10. LAMA2 is a part of the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex, and its loss-of-function mutation is associated with congenital muscular dystrophy. Thus, similar to muscular dystrophy, miR-486 has the potential to reverse skeletal muscle defects and cancer burden in select cancer types.

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.

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.
