Project description:Short tandem repeats (STRs) are prone to expansion mutations that cause multiple hereditary neurological and neuromuscular diseases. To study pathomechanisms using mouse models that recapitulate the tissue specificity and developmental timing of an STR expansion gene, we used rolling circle amplification and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing to generate Dmpk CTG expansion (CTGexp) knockin models of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). We demonstrate that skeletal muscle myoblasts and brain choroid plexus epithelial cells are particularly susceptible to Dmpk CTGexp mutations and RNA mis-splicing. Our results implicate dysregulation of muscle regeneration and cerebrospinal fluid homeostasis as early pathogenic events in DM1.

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: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 (DM) is the most common autosomal dominant muscular dystrophy and encompasses both skeletal muscle and cardiac complications. Myotonic dystrophy is nucleotide repeat expansion disorder in which type 1 (DM1) is due to a trinucleotide repeat expansion on chromosome 19 and type 2 (DM2) arises from a tetranucleotide repeat expansion on chromosome 3. Developing representative models of myotonic dystrophy in animals has been challenging due to instability of nucleotide repeat expansions, especially for DM2 which is characterized by nucleotide repeat expansions often greater than 5000 copies. To investigate mechanisms of human DM, we generated cellular models of DM1 and DM2. We used regulated MyoD expression to reprogram urine-derived cells into myotubes. In this cell model, we found impaired dystrophin expression, MBNL foci, and aberrant splicing in DM1 but not in DM2 cells. We generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) from healthy controls, DM1 and DM2 subjects and differentiated these into cardiomyocytes. DM1 and DM2 cells displayed an increase in RNA foci concomitant with cellular differentiation. IPSC-derived cardiomyocytes from DM1 but not DM2 had aberrant splicing and MBNL sequestration. High resolution imaging revealed tight association between MBNL clusters and RNA FISH foci in DM1. Ca2+ transients differed between DM1 and DM2 IPSC-derived cardiomyocytes and from healthy control cells. RNA-sequencing from DM1 and DM2 iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes both altered gene expression as well as distinct splicing patterns as differential between DM1 and DM2. Together these data support that DM1 and DM2, despite some shared clinical and molecular features, have distinct pathological signatures.

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.

Project description:This study examined the effects of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) on the muscle transcriptome in a transgenic mouse model of myotonic dystrophy. Two ASOs were tested in HSALR transgenic mice. Both of the ASOs targeted mRNA from a human skeletal actin (hACTA1) transgene. This transgene contains an expanded CTG repeat in the 3M-bM-^@M-^Y untranslated region (UTR) (Mankodi et al M-bM-^@M-^\Myotonic dystrophy in transgenic mice expressing an expanded CUG repeatM-bM-^@M-^] Science 2000; 289:1769-72). ASO 445235 targeted the hACTA1 transcript in the 3M-bM-^@M-^Y UTR, downstream from the expanded repeat. ASO 190401 targeted the hACTA1 transcript in the coding region. The HSALR mice received 4 weeks of biweekly subcutaneous injections of vehicle (saline), ASO 190401, or ASO 445236 (n = 4 per group), at a dose of 25 mg/kg per injection. Wild-type mice of the same strain background received saline injections (n = 4). One week after the final injection, quadriceps muscle was harvested for RNA analysis. Four conditions, four arrays per condition, to compare WT and HSALR trangenic mice without treatment (saline) and to examine the effect of two oligos (vs. saline) in the HSALR transgenic mice.

Project description:The congenital form of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (cDM) is caused by large-scale expansion of a (CTG•CAG)n repeat in DMPK and DM1-AS. Production of toxic transcripts with long trinucleotide tracts from these genes results in impediment of myogenic differentiation capacity as cDM’s most prominent morpho-phenotypic hallmark. In the current in vitro study, we compared the early differentiation programs of isogenic cDM myoblasts with and without a (CTG)2600 repeat obtained by gene editing. We found that excision of the repeat restored the ability of cDM myoblasts to engage in myogenic fusion, preventing that the ensuing myotubes remained immature. Although the cDM-typical epigenetic status of the DM1 locus and the expression of genes therein were not altered upon removal of the repeat, analyses at the transcriptome and proteome level revealed that early abnormalities in the temporal expression of differentiation regulators, myogenic progression markers and alternative splicing patterns before and immediately after the onset of differentiation became normalized. Our observation that molecular and cellular features of cDM are reversible and can be corrected by repeat-directed genome editing in muscle progenitors is important information for future development of gene therapy for different forms of DM1.

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is the most common form of adult-onset muscular dystrophy and is caused by an repeat expansion [r(CUG)exp] located in the 3' untranslated region of the DMPK gene. Symptoms include skeletal and cardiac muscle dysfunction and fibrosis. In DM1, there is a lack of established biomarkers in routine clinical practice. Thus, we aimed to identify a blood biomarker with relevance for DM1-pathophysiology and clinical presentation.
