Project description:Aims: Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signalling is thought to contribute to the remodelling of extracellular matrix (ECM) of skeletal muscle and to functional decline in patients with muscular dystrophies. We wanted to determine the role of TGF-β-induced ECM remodelling in dystrophic muscle. Methods: We experimentally induced the pathological hallmarks of severe muscular dystrophy by mechanically overloading the plantaris muscle in mice. Furthermore, we determined the role of TGF-β signalling on dystrophic tissue modulation and on muscle function by (i) overloading myostatin knockout (Mstn-/- ) mice and (ii) by additional pharmacological TGF-β inhibition via halofuginone. Results: Transcriptome analysis of overloaded muscles revealed upregulation predominantly of genes associated with ECM, inflammation and metalloproteinase activity. Histology revealed in wild-type mice signs of severe muscular dystrophy including myofibres with large variation in size and internalized myonuclei, as well as increased ECM deposition. At the same time, muscle weight had increased by 208% and muscle force by 234%. Myostatin deficiency blunted the effect of overload on muscle mass (59% increase) and force (76% increase), while having no effect on ECM deposition. Concomitant treatment with halofuginone blunted overload-induced muscle hypertrophy and muscle force increase, while reducing ECM deposition and increasing myofibre size. Conclusions: ECM remodelling is associated with an increase in muscle mass and force in overload-modelled dystrophic muscle. Lack of myostatin is not advantageous and inhibition of ECM deposition by halofuginone is disadvantageous for muscle plasticity in response to stimuli that induce dystrophic muscle.

Project description:We used a novel approach to study the acute effect of two frequencies of stimulation (20 Hz and 5 Hz; high and low force, respectively) on gene regulation in people with chronic paralysis. Three hours after the completion of the electrical stimulation protocol (5 Hz or 20 Hz), we sampled the vastus lateralis muscle and examined genes involved with metabolic transcription, glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, and mitochondria remodelling. We discovered that the 5 Hz stimulation, despite generating a lower overall force, induced a 5-6 fold increase (p<0.05) in key metabolic transcription factors including PGC-1?, NR4A3, and ABRA. Neither protocol showed a robust regulation of genes for glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, and mitochondria remodelling. We analyzed skeletal muscle using the Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST platform. Array data was processed by Partek Genomic Suites.

Project description:The goal of this project was to determine which mononuclear cell populations satellite cells communicate with throughout muscle during synergist ablation functional overload. Mouse plantaris muscles from tamoxifen-treated Pax7-tdT, tdT, and Pax7-DTA mice were overloaded for 4-14 days, and a subset of mononuclear cells were submitted for sc-RNA-seq.

Project description:Background: Increased proliferation of airway smooth muscle (ASM) cells leading to hyperplasia and increased ASM mass is one of the most characteristic features of airway remodelling in asthma. A bioactive lipid, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), has been suggested to affect airway remodelling by stimulation of human ASM cell proliferation. Objective: To investigate the effect of S1P on signalling and regulation of gene expression in ASM cells from healthy and asthmatic individuals. Methods: ASM cells grown from bronchial biopsies of healthy and asthmatic individuals were exposed to S1P. Gene expression was analysed using microarray, real-time PCR and western blotting. Receptor signalling and function was determined by mRNA knockdown and intracellular calcium mobilisation experiments. Results: S1P potently regulated the expression of more than 80 genes in human ASM cells, including several genes known to be involved in the regulation of cell proliferation and airway remodelling (HBEGF, TGFB3, TXNIP, PLAUR, SERPINE1, RGS4). S1P acting through S1P2 and S1P3 receptors activated intracellular calcium mobilisation and extracellular signal-regulated and Rho-associated kinases to regulate gene expression. S1P-induced responses were not inhibited by corticosteroids and did not differ significantly between ASM cells from healthy and asthmatic individuals. Conclusion: S1P induces a steroid-resistant, pro-remodelling pathway in ASM cells. Targeting S1P or its receptors could be a novel treatment strategy for inhibiting airway remodelling in asthma. Airway smooth muscle cells from 3 healthy donors were cultured and stimulated for 4 h with sphingosine-1-phosphate (100 nM) or medium control. Total RNA was extracted and analysed using Affymetrix Human Exon 1.0 ST arrays.

Project description:To improve our understanding of the genetic reprogramming during the early phase of skeletal adaptation in response to endurance training, we employed cDNA microarray analysis to examine changes in mRNA expression in mouse plantaris muscle after a single bout voluntary running. Control untrained mice were compared with with R3h, R12h, P3h, P6h, P12h, P24h and R4w mice. We conclude that a single bout of voluntary running is sufficient to induce active remodeling processes, including cell proliferation, by a coordinated regulation of the genome in response to signals elicited from increased neuromuscular activity.

Project description:Global gene expression patterns were determined from microarray results on day 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 14 during plantaris muscle regrowth following two weeks of hind limb suspension in young adult mice (5 months). For each time point, one Affymetrix chip (Mouse Gene 1.0 ST) was used with 100 ng of total RNA derived from a pooled sample of the left plantaris muscle from six animals.
