Project description:Expression profiling of C2C12 myoblast cells treated with ethanol during differentiation. Ethanol inhibits C2C12 differentiation. Results provide insight into signaling pathways altered by ethanol during differentiation.
Project description:C2C12 myoblast is a model that has been used extensively to study the process of skeletal muscle differentiation. Proteomics has advanced our understanding of skeletal muscle biology and the process of myogenesis. However, there is still no deep coverage of C2C12 myoblast proteome, which is important for the understanding of key drivers for the differentiation of skeletal muscle cells. Here, we conducted a multi-dimensional proteome profiling with TiSH strategy to get a comprehensive analysis of proteome, phosphoproteome and N-linked sialylated glycoproteome of C2C12 myoblasts. A total of 8313 protein groups were identified in C2C12 myoblasts, including 7827 protein groups from non-modified peptides, 3803 phosphoproteins and 977 formerly N-linked sialylated glycoproteins.
Project description:C2C12 is a myoblast cell line usually used for study of muscle differentiation. Myod1 is a pro-differentiation factor for myogenesis. We found that CRISPR/Cas9-mediated Myod1 gene knockout in C2C12 cells led to the loss of myoblast identity and gain of neural properties.
Project description:Expression profiling of C2C12 myoblast cells treated with ethanol during differentiation. Ethanol inhibits C2C12 differentiation. Results provide insight into signaling pathways altered by ethanol during differentiation. When C2C12 cells reached 70% confluence in growth medium containing 20% FBS, culture medium was changed to differentiation medium containing 2% horse serum with and without 100mM ethanol. Samples were harvested from day zero (just prior to differentiation) as well as days 1, 2 and 3 following onset of differentiation with and without alcohol treatment. RNA was isolated using the Qiagen RNA mini-kit.
Project description:To confirm changing C2C12 cells genetic profile and losing their myogenic ability, we investigated the combined effect of EPA and DHA on the relative expression of genes regulating the terminal differentiation of myoblast into mature multinucleated myotubes.
Project description:To study the gene expression profile difference in the myoblast differentiation of normal and DM1 groups, we performed RNA-seq on the total RNA samples collected from the in vitro myoblast differentiation day 4 of normal and DM1 C2C12 cell models. Normal and DM1 cell models were bulit by stably transfecting C2C12 cells with GFP-CUG5 and GFP-CUG200 plasmids. Each group contained three biological replicates. The expression matrix was obtained by Hisat2 followed by Stringtie.
