Project description:Purpose: Reduced Representation Bisulfite Sequencing (RRBS) DNA input requirements become a challenge when working with small pools of tissue-specific cell types. We describe an application of the RRBS method to assess DNA methylation on low-DNA input from human slow-twitch (MHC I) and fast-twitch (MHC IIa) skeletal muscle fibers. Methods : Fiber-type specific (MHC I and MHC IIa muscle fibers) total DNA was extracted from vastus lateralis muscle biopsies of 8 young physically active men (~25 yrs). A total of 16 DNA samples were generated : 8 DNA samples from pure MHC I and 8 DNA samples from pure MHC IIa muscle fibers. An equal quantity of DNA (4 ng) from each sample was combined to generate a "pooled" DNA sample representing all 8 subjects for each fiber type. Two fiber-type specific "pooled" samples of 32 ng of DNA were generated for library construction and sequencing, creating a Type 1 (MHC I muscle fibers) and Type 2a (MHC IIa muscle fibers) sample. Sequencing was performed using the HiSeq 2500 (Illumina) with 50 bp paired-end read parameters. Minimum sequencing read coverage of 5 (5x) was used as the cutoff for CpG-sites inclusion in the DNA methylation analysis. Fisher’s exact test was performed on CpG-sites that overlapped (i.e. identified in both samples) Type 1 and Type 2a samples to obtain p-values that indicate the likelihood of the site being a differentially methylated CpG-site (DMS). DMS with p<0.05 were classified as hypermethylated or hypomethylated if they were more or less methylated than the Type 1 sample, which was used as the reference sample. Results: The 32 ng of DNA from fiber-type specific muscle samples (Type 1 and 2a) used in this study ensured similar sequencing quality as compared to other studies using greater DNA input (>50 ng). Mapping ratios of ~47% and bisulfite conversion rates of ~97-98% were obtained.The unique and best alignment was successfully assessed for each of 17,376,728 CpG-sites in the Type 1 sample and 17,006,993 in the Type 2a sample, which represents ~30% of the total CpG number in the human genome. We identified 143,160 differentially methylated CpG-sites (DMS) across 14,046 genes among MHC I and MHC IIa muscle fibers. The analysis revealed that some genes predominantly expressed in MHC I were hypermethylated in MHC IIa muscle fibers. Conclusion: This study validates a low-DNA input RRBS method for human skeletal muscle samples to investigate the methylation patterns at a fiber-type specific level. These are the first fiber-type specific methylation data reported from human skeletal muscle. Considering the metabolic and structural differences between MHC I and MHC IIa muscle fibers, this technique could provide novel insights into the skeletal muscle methylation profile in relation to health, performance, disease or disuse.

Project description:Global microarray (HG U133 Plus 2.0) was used for the first time to investigate the effects of resistance exercise on the transcriptome in slow-twitch myosin heavy chain (MHC) I and fast-twitch MHC IIa muscle fibers of young and old women. Vastus lateralis muscle biopsies were obtained pre and 4hrs post resistance exercise in the beginning (untrained state) and at the end (trained state) of a 12 wk progressive resistance training program. A total of 14 females were included in this investigation. The participants included 8 young (23±2y) and 6 old (85±1y) females. All subjects participated in 12 wks of progressive resistance training consisting of bilateral knee extensions with 3x10 reps at 70% of 1-RM, and 3d/wk for a total of 36 training sessions. Vastus lateralis biopsies were obtained in conjunction with the 1st and 36th (last) training session and included a basal biopsy and another biopsy 4hrs post the resistance exercise session. From each biopsy sample, we isolated individual muscle fibers. After myosin isoform identification of isolated fibers (SDS-PAGE), RNA extraction of 20 MHC I and 20 MHC IIa muscle fibers per biopsy sample followed. Thus, each resulting sample contained total RNA from 20 muscle fibers of identical fiber type (MHC I or MHC IIa). A total of 70 samples were analyzed on separate microarray chips, and samples were not pooled between subjects. The study design allowed us to examine the acute effects of resistance exercise on the transcriptome in MHC I and MHC IIa muscle fibers in the untrained and trained state.

Project description:RNA-Seq was used for the first time to investigate the effects of resistance exercise on transcriptome dynamics in slow myosin heavy chain (MHC) I and fast MHC IIa muscle fibers among 3 groups of men. Vastus lateralis muscle biopsies were obtained before and 4 hours after resistance exercise.

Project description:Male vertebrate social displays vary from physically simple to complex, with the latter involving exquisite motor command of the body and appendages. Studies of these displays have, in turn, provided substantial insight into neuromotor mechanisms. The neotropical golden-collared manakin (Manacus vitellinus) has been used previously as a model to investigate intricate motor skills because adult males of this species perform an acrobatic and androgen-dependent courtship display. To support this behavior, these birds express elevated levels of androgen receptors (AR) in their skeletal muscles. Here we use RNA sequencing to explore how testosterone (T) modulates the muscular transcriptome to support male manakin courtship displays. In addition, we explore how androgens influence gene expression in the muscles of the zebra finch (Taenopygia guttata), a model passerine bird with a limited courtship display and minimal muscle AR. We identify androgen-dependent, muscle-specific gene regulation in both species. In addition, we identify manakin-specific effects that are linked to muscle use during the manakin display, including androgenic regulation of genes associated with muscle fiber contractility, cellular homeostasis, and energetic efficiency. Overall, our results point to numerous genes and gene networks impacted by androgens in male birds, including some that underlie optimal muscle function necessary for performing acrobatic display routines. Manakins are excellent models to explore gene regulation promoting athletic ability. Compare gene expression profiles between two species in the absence of testosterone or in the presence of testosterone using RNA-Seq (Illumina platform: Hi-Seq 2000)
