Project description:Skeletal muscle atrophy is a debilitating condition associated with weakness, fatigue, and reduced functional capacity. Nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) transcription factors play a critical role in atrophy. Knockout of genes encoding p50 or the NF-κB co-transactivator, Bcl-3, abolish disuse atrophy and thus they are NF-κB factors required for disuse atrophy. We do not know however, the genes targeted by NF-κB that produce the atrophied phenotype. Here we identify the genes required to produce disuse atrophy using gene expression profiling in wild type compared to Nfkb1 (gene encodes p50) and Bcl-3 deficient mice. There were 185 and 240 genes upregulated in wild type mice due to unloading, that were not upregulated in Nfkb1-/- and Bcl-3-/- mice, respectively, and so these genes were considered direct or indirect targets of p50 and Bcl-3. All of the p50 gene targets were contained in the Bcl-3 gene target list. Most genes were involved with protein degradation, signaling, translation, transcription, and transport. To identify direct targets of p50 and Bcl-3 we performed chromatin immunoprecipitation of selected genes previously shown to have roles in atrophy. Trim63 (MuRF1), Fbxo32 (MAFbx), Ubc, Ctsl, Runx1, Tnfrsf12a (Tweak receptor), and Cxcl10 (IP-10) showed increased Bcl-3 binding to κB sites in unloaded muscle and thus were direct targets of Bcl-3. p50 binding to the same sites on these genes either did not change or increased, supporting the idea of p50:Bcl-3 binding complexes. p65 binding to κB sites showed decreased or no binding to these genes with unloading. Fbxo9, Psma6, Psmc4, Psmg4, Foxo3, Ankrd1 (CARP), and Eif4ebp1 did not show changes in p65, p50, or Bcl-3 binding to κB sites, and so were considered indirect targets of p50 and Bcl-3. This work represents the first study to use a global approach to identify genes required to produce the atrophied phenotype with disuse. 24 mice were used based on 4 mice per group, 3 mouse genotypes (wild type, Nfkb1-/-, Bcl3-/-) and 2 conditions (weight-bearing and unloaded).

Project description:To identify atrophy genes directly targeted by Bcl-3 transactivator at a genome wide level, we performed whole transcript expression array and ChIP-seq for muscles from weight bearing or 5-day hind limb unloaded mice. Genes that showed increased expression with unloading and a Bcl-3 peak in the promoter (from ChIP-seq data) were considered as Bcl-3 direct targets during disuse atrophy. Using ChIP array, we identified 241 direct targets for Bcl-3. Our data describe Bcl-3 as a global regulator both of the proteolysis and the change in energy metabolism that are essential components of muscle atrophy due to disuse. Disuse skeletal muscle atrophy was induced by hind limb unloading. Weight bearing (WB) or 5-day hind limb unloaded (HU) muscles were harvested for total RNA isolation and processed for whole transcript expression profiling. We chose to examine gene expression and Bcl-3 binding from 5-day unloaded muscles because our previous time course study of disuse atrophy suggested that most genes are differentially regulated at this time point, and thus, would best represent the time for Bcl-3 binding to the gene targets of the NF-kB transcriptional network.

Project description:Disuse-induced muscle atrophy commonly occurs following illness, injury, or falls and becomes increasingly frequent with ageing. Whether skeletal muscle retains a “memory” of repeated disuse remains unknown. We investigated repeated lower- limb immobilization in young adults and a refined aged rat model, integrating physiological, multi-omic, immunohistochemical, biochemical, and primary human muscle stem cell (MuSC) analyses. To enable robust age comparisons, we integrated previously published young rat data with newly generated aged rat data. In young human muscle, repeated disuse elicited attenuated transcriptional perturbations in oxidative and mitochondrial pathways, suggestive of a protective molecular memory, despite similar atrophy to initial disuse. In contrast, aged muscle exhibited a detrimental memory, characterized by greater atrophy, exaggerated suppression of aerobic metabolism genes despite recovery after initial disuse, NAD+ and mitochondrial DNA depletion, and activation of proteasomal, extracellular-matrix, and DNA-damage pathways. Whereas young rats recovered muscle mass after initial disuse, aged rats failed to do so. Across species, repeated disuse induced DNA hypermethylation and downregulation of aerobic metabolism and mitochondrial gene networks. NR4A1 and NR4A3 were among the strongest disuse- suppressed genes; NR4A1 acquired recovery-phase hypermethylation that maintained its transcriptional repression, while NR4A3 was the most downregulated gene after initial atrophy and remained persistently suppressed into recovery. Acetylcholine receptor subunit genes (CHRNA1, CHRND) were epigenetically primed, demonstrating hypomethylation and strong upregulation after disuse, and further amplification after repeated atrophy, while CHRNG was selectively induced after repeated atrophy only. NMRK2, an NAD+ biosynthesis gene, was the most downregulated gene across both atrophy periods, and supplementation with its substrate, nicotinamide riboside (NR), improved myotube size in MuSCs derived post-atrophy. Overall, repeated disuse atrophy imprints a molecular memory in skeletal muscle shaping transcriptional resilience in young adults and exaggerated susceptibility in aged muscle.

Project description:Existing data suggest that NF-kappaB signaling is a key regulator of cancer-induced skeletal muscle wasting. However, identification of the components of this signaling pathway and of the NF-κB transcription factors that regulate wasting is far from complete. In muscles of C26 tumor bearing mice, overexpression of d.n. IKKβ blocked muscle wasting by 69%, the IκBα-super repressor blocked wasting by 41%. In contrast, overexpression of d.n. IKKα or d.n. NIK did not block C26-induced wasting. Surprisingly, overexpression of d.n. p65 or d.n. c-Rel did not significantly block muscle wasting. Genome-wide mRNA expression arrays showed upregulation of many genes previously implicated in muscle atrophy. To test if these upregulated genes were direct targets of NF-κB transcription factors, we compared genome-wide p65 or p50 binding to DNA in control and cachectic muscle using ChIP-sequencing. Bioinformatic analysis of ChIP-seq data from control and C26 muscles showed increased p65 and p50 binding to a few regulatory and structural genes but only two of these genes were upregulated with atrophy. The p65 and p50 ChIP-seq data are consistent with our finding of no significant change in protein binding to an NF-κB oligo in a gel shift assay. Taken together, these data support the idea that although inhibition of IκBα, and particularly IKKβ, blocks cancer-induced wasting, the alternative NF-κB signaling pathway is not required. In addition, the downstream NF-κB transcription factors do not regulate the transcriptional changes. These data are consistent with the growing body of literature showing that there are NF-κB-independent substrates of IKKβ and IκBα that regulate physiological processes.
