Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a multisystemic genetic disorder caused by a CTG trinucleotide repeat expansion in the 3′ untranslated region of DMPK gene. Heart dysfunctions occur in nearly 80% of DM1 patients and are the second leading cause of disease-related deaths, yet, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Herein, we report that upregulation of a non-muscle splice isoform of RNA binding protein RBFOX2 in DM1 heart tissue—due to altered splicing factor and microRNA activities—induces the characteristic cardiac conduction defects detected in DM1 individuals. Mice engineered to express the non-muscle RBFOX2 isoform in heart via tetracycline- inducible transgenesis, or CRISPR/Cas9 targeted genome editing, reproduced DM1- related cardiac-conduction delay and spontaneous episodes of arrhythmia. Furthermore, by integrating RNA binding with cardiac transcriptome datasets of DM1 patients, and mice expressing the non-muscle RBFOX2 isoform, we identified a core network of RBFOX2-driven splicing defects in sodium, potassium, and calcium channels that can alter their rate of ion diffusion and electrophysiological properties. Thus, our results uncover a trans-dominant role for an aberrantly expressed RBFOX2 isoform in DM1 cardiac pathogenesis.

Project description:Misregulated alternative splicing appears to be a major factor in the pathogenesis of myotonic dystrophy. The present study was done to further explore alternative splicing in this condition by doing exon-level analysis of mRNA from skeletal muscle of 8 subjects with type 1 myotonic dystrophy, 7 subjects with type 2 myotonic dystrophy, 8 disease controls (subjects with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy), and 8 healthy controls . The ratios of signals from the various exons of a gene provided an index of altered exon inclusion/exclusion that was independent of the overall expression of that gene. There were numerous transcripts for which there was evidence of abnormal alternative splicing in subjects with myotonic dystrophy. For many of these transcripts, the abnormal splicing was confirmed by an independent RT-PCR approach. 31 subjects, one sample per subject, four groups: healthy subjects (n = 8), facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (n = 8), type 1 myotonic dystrophy (n = 8), type 2 myotonic dystrophy (n = 7)

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 is a dominantly inherited multisystemic disease caused by CTG tandem repeat expansions in the DMPK 3' untranslated region. These expanded repeats are transcribed and produce toxic CUG RNAs that sequester and inhibit activities of the MBNL family of developmental RNA processing factors. Although myotonic dystrophy is classified as a muscular dystrophy, the brain is also severely affected by an unusual cohort of symptoms, including hypersomnia, executive dysfunction, as well as early onsets of tau/MAPT pathology and cerebral atrophy. To address the molecular and cellular events that lead to these pathological outcomes, we recently generated a mouse Dmpk CTG expansion knockin model and identified choroid plexus epithelial cells as particularly affected by the expression of toxic CUG expansion RNAs. To determine if toxic CUG RNAs perturb choroid plexus functions, alternative splicing analysis was performed on lateral and hindbrain choroid plexi from Dmpk CTG knockin mice. Choroid plexus transcriptome-wide changes were evaluated in Mbnl2 knockout mice, a developmental-onset model of myotonic dystrophy brain dysfunction. To determine if transcriptome changes also occurred in the human disease, we obtained post-mortem choroid plexus for RNA-seq from donors without neurologically unaffected (two females, three males; ages 50-70) and myotonic dystrophy type 1 donors (one female, three males; ages 50-70). To test that choroid plexus transcriptome alterations resulted in altered CSF composition, we obtained CSF via lumbar puncture from patients with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (five females, five males; ages 35-55) and non-myotonic dystrophy patients (three females, four males; ages 26-51) and Western blot and osmolarity analyses were used to test CSF alterations predicted by choroid plexus transcriptome analysis. We determined that CUG RNA induced toxicity was more robust in the lateral choroid plexus of Dmpk CTG knockin mice due to comparatively higher Dmpk and lower Mbnl RNA levels. Impaired transitions to adult splicing patterns during choroid plexus development were identified in Mbnl2 knockout mice, including mis-splicing previously found in Dmpk CTG knockin mice. Whole transcriptome analysis of myotonic dystrophy type 1 choroid plexus revealed disease-associated RNA expression and mis-splicing events. Based on these RNA changes, predicted alterations in ion homeostasis, secretory output, and CSF composition were confirmed by analysis of myotonic dystrophy type 1 CSF. Our results implicate choroid plexus spliceopathy and concomitant alterations in CSF homeostasis as an unappreciated contributor to myotonic dystrophy type 1 CNS pathogenesis.

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is a multi-systemic disease that severely impacts cardiac and skeletal muscle functions as well as the central nervous system. DM is unusual because it is RNA-mediated disease due to the expression of C(C)UG expansion RNAs that inhibit the activities of the muscleblind-like (MBNL) proteins. In mice, studies using Mbnl1 and Mbnl2 single knockouts have revealed that Mbnl1 plays a predominant role in skeletal and heart muscle alternative splicing regulation while Mbnl2 performs an analogous splicing function in the brain. However, Mbnl single knockout models fail to recapitulate the full-range of adult-onset DM muscle symptoms. Here, we report that Mbnl1; Mbnl2 double knockouts are embryonic lethal while Mbnl1-/-; Mbnl2+/- mice, which express no Mbnl1 and reduced levels of Mbnl2, are viable but develop cardinal features of adult-onset DM cardiac and skeletal muscle disease including reduced lifespan, heart conduction block, severe myotonia and progressive skeletal muscle weakness. Mbnl2 protein levels are elevated in both Mbnl1-/- and Mbnl1-/-; Mbnl2+/- knockouts where Mbnl2 targets Mbnl1-regulated exons. These findings support the MBNL loss-of-function model for DM and provide novel Mbnl compound knockout models to investigate the molecular pathways disrupted by RNA-mediated disease. Mbnl2 protein-RNA interactions were assessed in 4-month-old WT and Mbnl1-/- quadriceps muscles in triplicates by HITS-CLIP.

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is the most common form of adult-onset muscular dystrophy caused by expansion of a CTG repeat microsatellite within DMPK. In 10-20% of individuals with DM1, symptomatic onset begins at birth; these patients are classified as congenital myotonic dystrophy (CDM). While dysregulation of RNA metabolism, specifically alternative splicing, has been linked to disease pathology in adult-onset DM1, little is known about the mechanism of CDM. Biopsies from individuals (CDM), age range 0.04-16 years, were subjected to total RNA-seq to quantify the transcriptomic dysregulation throughout pediatric development. To achieve this, they were compared against age matched pediatric controls which revealed a triphasic pattern of dysregulation not before seen observed in CDM. CDM samples were also compared to adult-onset (DM1) individuals which showcased a shared disease signature to seen in all individuals with myotonic dystrophy irrespective of disease age of onset.
