Project description:26 limb-girdle muscular dystrophy patients from Latvia and 34 patients from Lithuania with clinical symptoms of limb-girdle muscular dystrophies, along with 204 healthy unrelated controls were genotyped for 96 most frequent known limb-girdle muscular dystrophies causing mutations for the region, using VeraCode GoldenGate system. More information can be found in article Robust genotyping tool for autosomal recessive type of limb-girdle muscular dystrophies in BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders by I. Inashkina et al.

Project description:Mesoangioblasts are stem/progenitor cells derived from a subset of pericytes expressing alkaline phosphatase. They have been shown to ameliorate muscular dystrophies (currently incurable diseases) in different animal models and are now undergoing clinical experimentation for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. We show here that patients affected by limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2D (LGMD2D, characterized by M-NM-1-sarcoglycan deficit) have a reduction of this subset of pericytes and hence mesoangioblast could not be derived for cell therapy. Therefore, we reprogrammed LGMD2D fibroblasts and myoblasts to induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and developed a protocol for the derivation of mesoangioblast-like cells from them. These cells can be expanded and genetically corrected with a muscle-specific lentiviral vector expressing human M-NM-1-sarcoglycan. Upon transplantation into ad hoc generated M-NM-1-sarcoglycan-null immunodeficient mice, they generate myofibers expressing M-NM-1-sarcoglycan. This approach may be useful for muscular dystrophies that show a reduction of resident progenitors and provides evidence of pre-clinical safety and efficacy of disease-specific iPSCs. 9 samples analyzed: 3 WT HIDEMs, 3 Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy 2D (LGMD2D) HIDEMs and 3 WT adult skeletal muscle derived mesoangioblasts (controls).

Project description:Limb-girdle muscular dystrophy R12 (LGMD-R12) is caused by two recessive mutations in the anoctamin-5 gene. Our main aim was to identify genes and pathways that underlie LGMD-R12 and explain differences in the molecular predisposition and susceptibility between three different thigh muscles that are severely (semimembranosus), moderately (vastus lateralis) or mildly (rectus femoris) affected in this disease.

Project description:Dysferlin is expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscle. However, dysferlin deficiency, namely limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2B (LGMD2B) and Myoshi myopathy, results in skeletal muscle weakness and spares the heart. This dichotomy could be caused by differential regulation of protective mechanisms. Therefore, we compared intraindividual mRNA expression profiles between cardiac and skeletal muscle in dysferlin-deficient SJL/J mice and normal C57BL/6 mice. Keywords: parallel sample

Project description:Cardiac resident stem/progenitor cells are intensively studied as a potential therapeutic tool for cardiomyopathies. While surface marker expression and ability to generate cardiomyocytes have been characterized in some detail for several types of these progenitors, little is known on how their cardiac differentiation is regulated. Beta sarcoglycan null (bSG KO) mice are a model for limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2E (LGMD2E), and are characterized by muscular dystrophy and progressive dilated cardiomyopathy. In the present study we isolated and characterized cardiac progenitors (mesoangioblasts) from the small vessels of neonatal hearts bSG KO mice and unexpectedly observed that they differentiate spontaneously into skeletal muscle fibers both in vitro and when transplanted in regenerating muscles and infarcted hearts. The micro array data showed that dystrophic cardiac progenitor and myogenic cells (C2C12) share similar gene expression profile. Keywords: Beta sarcoglycan null mice, muscular dystrophy, cardiac mesoangioblasts, myogenic differentiation Biological triplicates of cardiac wild-type and dystrophic mesoangioblasts isolated from different heart region (atrium, ventricle, aorta) were compared. C2C12 cells were used as positive control for myogenic differentiation.
