Project description:Collagen VI-related muscular dystrophies (COL6RD) are a rare, inherited group of congenital muscular dystrophies. The phenotype spans from an early-onset, severe, and rapidly progressive clinical course in Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy (UCMD), to a late-onset, mild and slowly progressive form in Bethlem muscular dystrophy (BM). COL6RD are caused by pathogenic variants in any of the three collagen type VI genes (COL6A1, COL6A2, COL6A3), which cause absence, reduction, mislocalization, or dysfunction of the collagen VI microfibrils in the skeletal muscle extracellular matrix (myomatrix), leading to yet incompletely understood downstream effects. Pathologic alterations in muscle biopsies of COL6RD varies, ranging from severely dystrophic changes, to mildly myopathic, represented by isolated myofiber atrophy. In this study, we aim to define the pathophysiologic events responsible for the histologic alterations of muscle and their progression in COL6RD. Aided by automated image analysis, we reviewed COL6RD patient muscle biopsies (n=22) and stratified them to three groups based on the degree of fibrosis and muscle fiber atrophy. Using microarray and RNA-Seq, we then performed global gene expression profiling on the same muscle biopsies and compared it with controls (n=14). Different histologic groups were characterized by similar transcriptional signatures predominantly featuring the upregulation of myomatrix component genes and downregulation of skeletal muscle and mitochondrion-specific genes. Our results also identified the TGFβ1 pathway in strong correlation with the development of COL6RD pathology at the histologic level, beginning early in the disease process, preceding fibrosis, and increasing in direct correlation with increased histologic severity. Overall, our study identifies COL6RD as a primary disorder of the myomatrix and posits dysregulation of TGFβ1-dependent pathways as a potential factor in pathogenesis of the disease.

Project description:Objectives: The collagen VI related muscular dystrophies (COL6-RD), Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy (UCMD) and Bethlem myopathy (BM) are among the most common congenital muscular dystrophies, but the pathogenesis, including the role of mutant collagen VI in the matrix is poorly understood. To better define the pathways disrupted by mutations in collagen VI, we have used a transcriptional profiling approach with RNA-Seq to identify differentially expressed genes in COL6-RD patients from controls. Methods: We have used RNA-Seq to identify differentially expressed genes in cultured dermal fibroblasts from 13 COL6-RD patients (8 dominant negative and 5 null) and 6 controls. Sequence reads were analyzed using the TopHat/Cufflinks pipeline. Results: Differentially expressed transcripts between COL6-RD patient and control fibroblasts include upregulation of ECM components and downregulation of factors controlling matrix remodeling and repair. DN and null samples are differentiated by downregulation of genes involved with DNA replication and repair in null samples

Project description:Collagen VI-related disorders (COL6-RDs) are a group of rare muscular dystrophies caused by pathogenic variants in collagen VI genes. ¬¬Collagen type VI is a heterotrimeric, microfibrillar component of the muscle extracellular matrix (ECM), predominantly secreted by resident fibroadipogenic precursor cells in skeletal muscle. Collagen VI absence or mislocalization in the skeletal muscle ECM underlies the non-cell autonomous dystrophic changes and dysfunction in skeletal muscle in COL6-RDs with an as of yet elusive direct mechanistic link between the ECM and myofiber dysfunction. Here, we derive a novel mouse model of COL6-RD, Col6a2-/- mice, and conduct a comprehensive natural history study in male and female animals aged to 60 weeks of age. Col6a2-/- mice have a normal lifespan but develop muscle weakness based on standardized behavioral tests (grip and hanging wire test), muscle atrophy with histologic hallmarks of muscular dystrophy, and reduced muscle force prodcution on physiologic parameters. We also report a robust dysregulation of TGFβ pathway early in the disease process and thus propose a new mechanism for pathogenesis of the disease that links the ECM regulation of TGFβ with downstream skeletal muscle abnormalities, paving the way for developing therapeutics that target this pathway.

Project description:Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is an autosomal dominant disorder linked to contractions of the D4Z4 repeat array in the subtelomeric region of chromosome 4q. By comparing genome-wide gene expression data from muscle biopsies of patients with FSHD to those of 11 other neuromuscular disorders, we intend to identify disease-specific changes which are more likely to be involved in the early stages of the disease progression. The data will help to identify pathological mechanisms involved in FSHD. Experiment Overall Design: Comparison of the profiles of FSHD to 13 other conditions for disease-specific changes. The 13 conditions are NHM (Normal healthy muscle) n=15; JDM (Juvenile dermatomyositis) n=25; HSP (Human spastic paraplegia) n=4; FSHD (facioscapulohumeral dystrophy) unaffected n=5, affected n=9; FKRP (Fukutin related protein deficiency) n=7; ED-L (Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy, lamin A/C deficiency) n=4; ED-E (Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy, emerin deficiency) n=4; DYSF (dysferlinopathy) n=10; DMD (Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy) n=10; CALP (Calpain-3 deficiency) n=10; BMD (Becker Muscular Dystrophy) n=5; AQM (Acute quadriplegic myopathy) n=5; ALS (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) n=9.

Project description:ObjectiveTo define the transcriptomic changes responsible for the histologic alterations in skeletal muscle and their progression in collagen VI-related muscular dystrophy (COL6-RD).MethodsCOL6-RD patient muscle biopsies were stratified into three groups based on the overall level of pathologic severity considering degrees of fibrosis, muscle fiber atrophy, and fatty replacement of muscle tissue. Using microarray and RNA-Seq, we then performed global gene expression profiling on the same muscle biopsies and compared their transcriptome with age- and sex-matched controls.ResultsCOL6-RD muscle biopsy transcriptomes as a group revealed prominent upregulation of muscle extracellular matrix component genes and the downregulation of skeletal muscle and mitochondrion-specific genes. Upregulation of the TGFβ pathway was the most conspicuous change across all biopsies and was fully evident even in the mildest/earliest histological group. There was no difference in the overall transcriptional signature between the different histologic groups but polyserial analysis identified relative changes along with COL6-RD histological severity.InterpretationOverall, our study establishes the prominent dysregulation of extracellular matrix genes, TGFβ signaling, and its downstream cellular pathways at the transcriptomic level in COL6-RD muscle.
