Vitamin A-Derived Retinoic Acid Contributes to Muscle Stem Cell and Mitochondrial Function [scRNA-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Vitamin A is an exogenous micronutrient that is derived solely from diet and metabolized into retinoic acid, which acts as an antioxidant and transcriptional regulator. Here we show that obstruction of dietary Vitamin A drives mitochondrial and cell cycle dysfunction in MuSCs and myoblasts that mimics old age. The receptor for vitamin A derived retinol, Stra6, was found to be diminished with MuSC activation and in old age. The loss of Stra6 in myogenic progenitors resulted in accumulation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species, as well as changes in mitochondrial morphology and respiration. Pharmacological targeting of Stra6 and retinoic acid signaling in myogenic progenitors and aged MuSCs reverted oxidative damage, enhanced mitochondrial function, and improved maintenance of quiescence. These results demonstrate that Vitamin A regulates mitochondria and metabolism in MuSCs to promote quiescence. These results highlight a unique mechanism connecting stem cell function with vitamin intake.

The mitochondrial protein OPA1 regulates the quiescent state of adult muscle stem cells

Project description:Regulation of quiescence is essential for adult stem cell maintenance, longevity and sustained regeneration potential. Our studies have uncovered that physiological and transient changes in mitochondrial shape regulate the quiescent state of adult muscle stem cells (MuSCs). We show that mitochondria in MuSCs rapidly fragment in response to an activation stimulus, via a systemic HGF/mTOR mechanism, to drive the exit from deep quiescence. Deletion of the mitochondrial fusion protein OPA1 and forced mitochondrial fragmentation is sufficient to transition MuSCs into G-alert quiescence causing premature activation and depletion upon a stimulus. Loss of OPA1 activates a glutathione (GSH) redox signaling pathway that promotes cell-cycle progression, myogenic gene expression and commitment. MuSCs with chronic OPA1 loss and mitochondrial fragmentation, leading to mitochondrial dysfunction, continue to reside in a primed state but acquire severe cell cycle defects. Additionally, we provide evidence that OPA1 decline and impaired mitochondrial dynamics may contribute to age-related MuSC dysfunction. These findings reveal a fundamental role for OPA1 and mitochondrial dynamics in establishing the quiescent state and activation potential of adult stem cells.

Restoration of CPEB4 Prevents Muscle Stem Cell Senescence during Aging

Project description:Muscle stem cells (MuSCs) are required for muscle regeneration. In resting muscles, MuSCs are kept in quiescence. After injury, MuSCs undergo rapid activation, proliferation and differentiation to repair damaged muscles. Age-associated impairments in stem cell functions correlate with a decline in somatic tissue regeneration capacity during aging. However, the mechanisms underlying the molecular regulation of adult stem cell aging remain elusive. Here, we obtained quisecent MuSCs from young, old, geriatric mice for high resolution mass spectrometry Bruker timsTOF Pro. By comparison of young proteome to old MuSCs proteome or geriatric MuSC proteome, we identified the pathways that are differentially during aging.

Bulk RNA-seq of eyes isolated from wildtype and Stra6 knockout mice maintained on either a vitamin A sufficient or deficient diet

Project description:Vitamin A deficiency is detrimental to the visual system throughout the lifecycle. Abundant expression of the retinoid transporter STRA6 in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and homeostatic blood levels of retinol binding protein ensure the eyes are adequately supplied with the nutrient. STRA6 deficiency interrupts the supply pathway, but vitamin A in chylomicrons compensates for its failure. However, dependency on the chylomicron delivery pathway makes the eyes of STRA6-deficient mice vulnerable to dietary vitamin A deprivation. How the eyes adapt to vitamin A status has not been studied in molecular detail, and therefore we used RNA-seq to focus on diet-induced changes. We observed that mild ocular vitamin A deficiency was linked to an increase in transcript abundance levels of genes coding for proteins of stress pathways and a decrease in levels of transcripts coding for proteins of pathways of visual sensitivity and perception. These changes correlate with a loss of visual sensitivity and accumulation of fluorescent debris in the retina. Additionally, severe vitamin A deficiency decreased the transcript levels of genes involved in cell adhesion, cell differentiation, and transport of small molecules pathways. This response correlated with alterations in epithelial cell morphology and a “leaky” RPE barrier. Together, our analyses of STRA6-deficient mice define adaptive responses associated with ocular vitamin A status and reveal a previously unknown role of STRA6 in the maintenance and functioning of the outer blood-retina barrier.

Muscle stem cell niche localization, quiescence, and maintenance are cadherin-dependent but separable functions

Project description:Adhesion between stem cells and their niche promotes stable niche localization and provides signaling information to sustain properties such as quiescence. Skeletal muscle stem cells (MuSCs) are localized between an adjacent myofiber and an enwrapping basal lamina. The most abundant cadherin in MuSCs, M-cadherin, is dispensable for MuSC function, whereas N-cadherin is required to prevent MuSCs from breaking quiescence in the absence of injury. Loss of both cadherins exacerbates this phenotype, yet the MuSCs remain in the niche and maintain regenerative function. These findings raise the possibility that cadherins are dispensable for anchorage of MuSCs to their niche. To address this question, we conditionally removed from MuSCs b- and g-catenin and, separately, aE- and aT-catenin, factors essential for cadherin-dependent adhesion. Catenin-deficient MuSCs break quiescence similarly to N-/M-cadherin-deficient MuSCs, but exit the niche, and are depleted via a single fate: precocious differentiation, reentry to the niche, and fusion to myofibers. These findings indicate that separable, cadherin-dependent functions are required in MuSCs for niche localization, quiescence, and stem cell maintenance.

Staufen1 inhibits MyoD translation to actively maintain muscle stem cell quiescence

Project description:Tissue regeneration depends on the timely activation of adult stem cells. In skeletal muscle, the adult stem cells maintain a quiescent state and proliferate upon injury. We show that muscle stem cells (MuSCs) use direct translational repression to maintain the quiescent state. High resolution single molecule and single cell analyses demonstrate that quiescent MuSCs express high levels of Myogenic Differentiation1 (MyoD) transcript in vivo, whereas MyoD protein is absent. RNA pulldowns and co-stainings show that MyoD mRNA interacts with Staufen1, a potent regulator of mRNA localization, translation, and stability. Staufen1 prevents MyoD translation through its interaction with the MyoD 3’UTR. MuSCs from Staufen1 heterozygous (Staufen1+/-) mice have increased MyoD protein expression, exit quiescence, and begin proliferating. Conversely, blocking MyoD translation maintains the quiescent phenotype. Collectively, our data show that MuSCs express MyoD mRNA and actively repress its translation to remain quiescent yet primed for activation.

Polycomb Ezh1 maintains muscle stem cells quiescence through non-canonical regulation of the Notch signaling

Project description:Organismal homeostasis and regeneration are predicated on committed stem cells which, in tissues and organs with low turnover, reside for long periods in a reversible cell cycle arrest, defined as quiescence. Inability to exit or premature escape from quiescence, as occurring in pathological conditions and aging, is detrimental as it results in either lack of stem cell mobilization or pool depletion with consequent defective tissue homeostatis and regeneration. It is therefore unsurprising that quiescence is safeguarded by multilayered regulatory mechanisms. Here, we report that Polycomb Ezh1 confers quiescence to muscle stem cells (MuSCs) through a non-canonical function. In the absence of Ezh1, MuSCs spontaneously exit quiescence and, following repeated injuries, the stem cell pool is depleted resulting in failure to sustain appropriate muscle regeneration. Rather than regulating repressive Polycomb-dependent histone H3K27 methylation, Ezh1 actively maintains the Notch signaling pathway in MuSCs. Accordingly, selective genetic reconstitution of the Notch signaling corrects stem cell number and re-establishes quiescence of Ezh1-/- MuSCs.

The retinol-binding protein receptor STRA6 contributes to the pathogenesis of adenomyosis via Wnt/β-catenin pathway depression [microRNA]

Project description:Adenomyosis is an estrogen-dependent disease in which endometrial glands and stroma are pathologically demonstrated in the myometrium. Despite its prevalence and severity of symptoms, the precise etiology and physiopathology of adenomyosis is not well understood.Vitamin defciency increase in women with adenomyosis. Much less is known about the mechanism of their relationship. We found the retinol-binding protein receptor STRA6 upregulation in uterinespiral arteries from adenomyosis patients. The increased estrogen level promote the STRA6 expression, resulting the depressed Wnt/β-catenin signaling mediated by FASN/GSK-3β interaction. Overexpression of STRA6 induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition process. miR-1249-5p achieved its negative function by regulating the target gene through 3' UTR.The depletion of STRA6 in vivo alleviated the pathogenesis of adenomyosis. These results reveal a hitherto undesribed positive feedback loop between estrogen and STRA6 in adenomyosis pathogenesis. Components of vitamin A metabolism network have more complex activities than simply controlling or transferring VA compounds between different cells.

Differentiation reveals the plasticity of age-related change in murine muscle progenitors

Project description:Skeletal muscle experiences a decline in lean mass and regenerative potential with age, in part due to intrinsic changes in progenitor cells. However, it remains unclear if age-related changes in progenitors persist across a differentiation trajectory or if new age-related changes manifest in differentiated cells. To investigate this possibility, we performed single cell RNA-seq on muscle mononuclear cells from young and aged mice and profiled muscle stem cells (MuSCs) and fibro/adipose progenitors (FAPs) after differentiation. Differentiation increased the magnitude of age-related change in MuSCs and FAPs, but also masked a subset of age-related changes present in progenitors. Using a dynamical systems approach and RNA velocity, we found that aged MuSCs follow the same differentiation trajectory as young cells, but stall in differentiation near a commitment decision. Our results suggest that age-related changes are plastic across differentiation trajectories and that fate commitment decisions are delayed in aged myogenic cells.
