P38α Regulates Expression of DUX4 in Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy

Project description:Here, we describe the identification and characterization of p38α as a novel regulator of DUX4 expression in FSHD myotubes. By using multiple highly characterized, potent and specific inhibitors of p38α/β, we show a robust reduction of DUX4 expression, activity and cell death across FSHD1 and FSHD2 patient-derived lines. RNA-seq profiling reveals that a small number of genes are differentially expressed upon p38α/β inhibition, the vast majority of which are DUX4 target genes. Our results reveal a novel and apparently critical role for p38α in the aberrant activation of DUX4 in FSHD and support the potential of p38α/β inhibitors as effective therapeutics to treat FSHD at its root cause.

DUX4 activates germline genes, retroelements and immune-mediators: Implications for facioscapulohumeral dystrophy

Project description:Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most common inherited muscular dystrophies. The causative gene remains controversial and the mechanism of pathophysiology unknown. Here we identify genes associated with germline and early stem cell development as targets of the DUX4 transcription factor, a leading candidate gene for FSHD. The genes regulated by DUX4 are reliably detected in FSHD muscle but not in controls, providing direct support for the model that misexpression of DUX4 is a causal factor for FSHD. Additionally, we show that DUX4 binds and activates LTR elements from a class of MaLR endogenous primate retrotransposons and suppresses the innate immune response to viral infection, at least in part through the activation of DEFB103, a human defensin that can inhibit muscle differentiation. These findings suggest specific mechanisms of FSHD pathology and identify candidate biomarkers for disease diagnosis and progression. Examine Dux4 full isoform binding sites in human fibroblast.

[Overexpression experiment] Quadruplicate total RNA samples were collected from control human primary myoblasts transduced with lentivirus carrying DUX4-fl, DUX4-s or GFP (MOI = 15) for 24 h and from untransduced myoblasts. [Defensin experiment] Quadruplicate samples were also collected from myoblasts and myotubes grown in media containing human beta-defensin 3 peptide or in control media.

Transcription profiling of human Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) muscle profiles

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.

single-cell RNA sequencing in patient-derived primary myocytes for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy

Project description:Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is characterized by sporadic de-repression of the transcription factor DUX4 in skeletal muscle. We employed single-cell RNA-sequencing, combined with pseudotime trajectory modeling, to study FSHD disease etiology and cellular progression in human primary myocytes. We identified a small FSHD-specific cell population in all tested patient-derived cultures and detected new genes associated with DUX4 de-repression. We furthermore generated an FSHD cellular progression model, reflecting both the early burst-like DUX4 expression as well as the downstream activation of various FSHD-associated pathways, which allowed us to correlate DUX4 expression signature dynamics with that of regulatory complexes, thereby facilitating the prioritization of epigenetic targets for DUX4 silencing.

Hit-and-run silencing of endogenous DUX4 by targeting DNA hypomethylation on D4Z4 repeats in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy [EPIC Methylation]

Project description:Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD), a progressive skeletal muscle disorder, is epigenetically characterized with DNA hypomethylation of D4Z4 repeats in 4q35 region, allowing aberrant DUX4 expression. Sustainable DUX4 suppression is a promising therapeutic clue to prevent disease progression, but most of the supposed methods depend on expression of their mediator biochemical entity, potentially narrowing QoL of individuals with FSHD in the clinical context. In this study, we report that by applying hit-and-run silencing with dCas9-mediated epigenetic editing targeting DNA hypomethylation on D4Z4 repeats, we could achieve suppression of endogenous DUX4 in our FSHD patients-derived iPSC model. Notably, DNA methylation was significantly upregulated in FSHD cells and suppression effect was observed at least two weeks after intervention, which was not the case by transient treatment of typical dCas9-KRAB alone. Off-target analysis showed that despite the potential genome-wide risk in DNA methylation, the impact on transcriptome was limited. We propose that hit-and-run silencing can be a promising option to prevent disease progression with minimum intervention for individuals with FSHD, motivating further study for clinical development.
