Project description:This study analyses the gene expression profile of pre-osteoblastic C2C12 mice cells during osteodifferentiation in control and induced by rhBMP2 and rhBMP7 using DNA microarrays. Genes which were already known to be activated by BMP2, to be also activated by rhBMP7, indicating that BMP7 induces these genes in a similar fashion as BMP2. Moreover, we identified some new genes, such as Hoxc8, Glis1, Glis3, Ecsit, LrP6, Dvl1, Grn, BMP1, Ltbp2, Plod1, Htra1 and IGFBP-rP10, to be upregulated by both rhBMPs. Total RNA from mouse pre-myoblastic and pre-osteoblastic C2C12 cell line, after 12h of treatment with rhBMP2 and rhBMP7, was hybridized to a microarray and analyzed.

Project description:Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of small, non-coding single-stranded RNA molecules involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. As such, they are believed to play a role in regulating the step-wise changes in gene expression patterns that occur during cell fate specification of multipotent stem cells. Here, we have studied whether terminal differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts is indeed controlled by lineage-specific changes in miRNA expression. Results: Using a previously generated RNA polymerase II (Pol-II) ChIP-on-chip dataset, we show differential Pol-II occupancy at the promoter regions of six miRNAs during C2C12 myogenic versus BMP2-induced osteogenic differentiation. Overexpression of one of these miRNAs, miR-378, enhances Alp activity, calcium deposition and mRNA expression of osteogenic marker genes in the presence of BMP2. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate a previously unknown role for miR-378 in promoting BMP2-induced osteogenic differentiation. Stable C2C12 cell lines C2C12-pMirn0 and C2C12-pMirn378 were generated by lentiviral transduction of C2C12 myoblasts with a Mirn378-overexpression construct and its parent vector, respectively. C2C12-pMirn0 and C2C12-pMirn378 cells were plated at 2.5 x 10^4 cells/cm2 (day -1), cultured for 1 day in DMEM 10%NCS, then (d0) treated with or without 300 ng/ml bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) for 6 days. RNA was extracted on d0, d3 and d6 and hybridized to GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 array (Affymetrix).

Project description:KSRP knock-down and BMP2 treatment produce a largely overlapping reshape of the transcriptome in C2C12 cells. microRNAs (miRNAs) are essential regulators of development, physiology, and evolution with miRNA biogenesis being strictly controlled at multiple levels. Regulatory proteins, such as KH-type splicing regulatory protein (KSRP), modulate rates and timing of the enzymatic reactions responsible for maturation of select miRNAs from their primary transcripts in response to specific stimuli. Induction of myogenic miRNAs (myomiRs) is essential for muscle differentiation with KSRP phosphorylation being required to convey myogenic signals to enhanced myomiR maturation. Here we show that either KSRP silencing or Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP)2-signaling activation in mesenchimal C2C12 cells prevented myogenic differentiation while induced osteoblastic differentiation as revealed by the reshaping of the whole transcriptome analyzed by RNA deep-sequencing. The most striking feature common to both BMP2 signaling activation and KSRP silencing was a blockade of myomiR maturation. Our results demonstrate that phosphorylated SMAD proteins, the transducers of BMP signaling, associate with KSRP and block its interaction with primary-myomiRs. This, in turn, abrogates KSRP-dependent myomiR maturation with the knock-down of SMAD4, 5, and 9 being able to rescue KSRP function. SMAD-induced blockade of KSRP-dependent myomiR maturation, in parallel to the well known SMAD function on gene transcription, inhibits C2C12 cell differentiation into myofibers and contributes to orient cells towards osteoblast lineage. We propose that remodeling of co-regulatory complexes affecting primary-miRNA processing is a mechanism well suited to guide cell fate determination in eukaryotes. Total RNA was prepared from 1. untreated mock-transfected C2C12 cells; 2. BMP2-treated mock-transfected C2C12 cells; 3. untreated shKSRP-transfected C2C12 cells and analyzed by RNA-seq
