Project description:Skeletal muscle has a central role in whole body metabolism with myofibers that represent its functional units. These are differentiated cells with different contraction power and metabolic traits. Faster contracting myofibers preferentially use glucose as substrate for energy production, while slower use lipids. Myofibers can plastically change phenotypic traits in response to pathophysiological stimuli. Since post-transcriptional mechanisms should administer the changes of these post-mitotic cells, we demonstrated that miR-27a-3p influences myofiber fuel availability and mitochondrial morphology. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate that miR-27a-3p regulates glycogen utilization. We used microarrays to characterize the global changes in gene expression in C2C12 myoblasts due to over-expression of miR-27a-3p.

Project description:The growth and development of skeletal muscle is regulated by many factors, and recent studies have shown that circular RNAs (circRNAs) can participate in this process. The model of porcine skeletal muscle injury was constructed to search for circRNAs that can regulate the growth and development of skeletal muscle in pigs. Using whole-transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis, a novel circRNA (circCSDE1) was screened out, which is highly expressed in skeletal muscle. Functional studies in C2C12 cells demonstrated that circCSDE1 could promote proliferation and inhibit myoblast differentiation, while opposing changes were observed by circCSDE1 knockdown. A dual-luciferase reporter assay revealed that circCSDE1 directly targeted miR-21-3p to regulate the expression of the downstream target gene (Cyclin-dependent kinase 16, CDK16). Moreover, miR-21-3p could inhibit proliferation and promote myoblast differentiation in C2C12 cells, opposite with the effects of circCSDE1. Additionally, the rescue experiments offered further evidence that circCSDE1 and its target, miR-21-3p, work together to regulate myoblast proliferation and differentiation. This study provides a theoretical basis for further understanding the regulatory mechanisms of circRNAs.

Project description:Skeletal myogenesis is essential to keep muscle mass and integrity, and impaired myogenesis is closely related to the etiology of muscle wasting. Recently, miR-141-3p has been shown to be induced under various conditions associated with muscle wasting, such as aging, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction. However, the functional significance and mechanism of miR-141-3p in myogenic differentiation have not been explored to date. In this study, we investigated the roles of miR-141-3p on CFL2 expression, proliferation, and myogenic differentiation in C2C12 myoblasts. MiR-141-3p appeared to target the 3'UTR of CFL2 directly and suppressed the expression of CFL2, an essential factor for actin filament (F-actin) dynamics. Transfection of miR-141-3p mimic in myoblasts increased F-actin formation and augmented nuclear Yes-associated protein (YAP), a key component of mechanotransduction. Furthermore, miR-141-3p mimic increased myoblast proliferation and promoted cell cycle progression throughout the S and G2/M phases. Consequently, miR-141-3p mimic led to significant suppressions of myogenic factors expression, such as MyoD, MyoG, and MyHC, and hindered the myogenic differentiation of myoblasts. Thus, this study reveals the crucial role of miR-141-3p in myogenic differentiation via CFL2-YAP-mediated mechanotransduction and provides implications of miRNA-mediated myogenic regulation in skeletal muscle homeostasis.

Project description:Skeletal myogenesis is required to maintain muscle mass and integrity, and impaired myogenesis is causally linked to the etiology of muscle wasting. Recently, it was shown that excessive uptake of saturated fatty acids (SFA) plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of muscle wasting. Although microRNA (miRNA) is implicated in the regulation of myogenesis, the molecular mechanism whereby SFA-induced miRNAs impair myogenic differentiation remains largely unknown. Here, we investigated the regulatory roles of miR-325-3p on CFL2 expression and myogenic differentiation in C2C12 myoblasts. PA impeded myogenic differentiation, concomitantly suppressed CFL2 and induced miR-325-3p. Dual-luciferase analysis revealed that miR-325-3p directly targets the 3'UTR of CFL2, thereby suppressing the expression of CFL2, a crucial factor for actin dynamics. Transfection with miR-325-3p mimic resulted in the accumulation of actin filaments (F-actin) and nuclear Yes-associated protein (YAP) in myoblasts and promoted myoblast proliferation and cell cycle progression. Consequently, miR-325-3p mimic significantly attenuated the expressions of myogenic factors and thereby impaired the myogenic differentiation of myoblasts. The roles of miR-325-3p on CFL2 expression, F-actin modulation, and myogenic differentiation suggest a novel miRNA-mediated regulatory mechanism of myogenesis and PA-inducible miR-325-3p may be a critical mediator between obesity and muscle wasting.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been reported that can regulate skeletal muscle growth and development. Previously, we demonstrated that miR-127-3p were differently expressed in skeletal muscle and muscle cells. However, the molecular mechanism of miR-127-3p regulation of skeletal myogenesis are not well elucidated. In this study, we transfected miR-127-3p into C2C12 cells, and found miR-127-3p induces myogenesis by targeting Vamp2. Moreover, the regulatory mechanism of Vamp2 in myoblasts proliferation and differentiation was further confirmed. In conclusion, our data providedevidences that miR-127-3p reciprocally regulated myoblasts proliferation and differentiation through directly targeting Vamp2.

Project description:Skeletal muscles are composed by different myofiber types with a wide range of metabolic and functional properties. In the past years, biophysical analyses on isolated muscle fibers were extensively used to study the different contractile features of each myofiber type. To better clarify the complex mechanisms determining and regulating this heterogeneity, we applied genomic technologies at the level of single isolated myofibers. Fibers were prepared from soleus and EDL mouse muscles in order to obtain a comprehensive collection of fiber types classified according to myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms. Transcriptomic analysis performed using microarray technology produced expression profiles of myofibers free from the background of non-contractile cell of the muscles. This permitted to identify a complete catalogue of genes differentially expressed among fiber types, mainly coding for metabolic enzymes, isoforms of the contractile proteins, and proteins involved in calcium homeostasis. Interestingly, myofibers transcriptionally grouped in 3 different transcriptional clusters, named transcriptional slow (tS), intermediate (tI), and fast(tF), mainly according to their metabolism and speed of contraction. This transcriptionally based myofibers grouping only partially fit with myofibers classification based on MyHC isoforms. In addition, using microarray data, we identified a limited set of transcriptional markers that can be used to unequivocally classify myofibers in one of the three clusters (tS, tI, or tF). This approach based on single cell analysis would allow a better description and comprehension of the adaptive transitions at transcriptional level occurring in myofibers under physiological and pathological conditions.

Project description:Researches over the past decade suggest that lipopolysaccharide is a dominant driver of gastrointestinal motility and could damage the enteric neuron of rat or porcine. However, it remains poorly defined whether LPS participates in Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR). Here, we discovered that LPS increased in HSCR tissues. Furthermore, LPS treatment suppressed the proliferation and differentiation of neural precursor cells (NPCs) or proliferation and migration of human 293T cells. ADAR2 (adenosine deaminase acting on RNA2)-mediated post-transcriptional adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing promotes cancer progression. We show that increased LPS activates ADAR2 and subsequently regulates the A-to-I RNA editing which suppresses the miR-142 expression. RNA sequencing combined with qRT-PCR suggested that ADAR2 restrain cell migration and proliferation via pri-miR-142 editing and STAU1 up-regulation. In conclusion, the findings illustrate that LPS participates in HSCR through the LPS-ADAR2-miR-142-STAU1 axis.

Project description:The regulation of the balance between proliferation and differentiation in the mesenchymal compartment of the lung is largely uncharacterized, unlike its epithelial counterpart. In this study, we determined that miR-142-3p contributes to the proper proliferation of mesenchymal progenitors by controlling the level of WNT signaling. miR-142-3p can physically bind to adenomatous polyposis coli mRNA, functioning to regulate its expression level. In miR-142-3p loss-of-function experiments, proliferation of parabronchial smooth muscle cell progenitors is significantly impaired, leading to premature differentiation. Activation of WNT signaling in the mesenchyme, or Apc loss of function, can both rescue miR-142-3p knockdown. These findings show that in the embryonic lung mesenchyme, the microRNA machinery modulates the level of WNT signaling, adding an extra layer of control in the feedback loop between FGFR2C and ?-catenin-mediated WNT signaling.
