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-2 (DM2) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by the expansion of a CCTG tetraplet repeat. It is a multisystemic disorder, affecting skeletal muscles, the heart, the eye, the central nervous system and the endocrine system. Whole mRNAs expression was measured in the muscle of DM2 patients and compared it to controls.We identified distinct genes modulated in DM2 patients compared to controls. Our study included 10 DM2 and 10 control (CTR) muscle biopsies from biceps brachii. DM2 and CTR were age- and sex- matched. Most DM2 patients had myotonia and cataract, two disease hallmarks, while differences in other clinical parameters (muscle strenght, diabetes, CPK, FT3, FT4, TSH, ejection fraction) were not significant. Genes expression was assessed by Affymetrix Gene Chip Human Exon 1.0 ST Array.

Project description:Myotonic Dystrophy Type-2 (DM2) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by the expansion of a CCTG tetraplet repeat. It is a multisystemic disorder, affecting skeletal muscles, the heart, the eye, the central nervous system and the endocrine system The expression of 365 miRNAs was measured in the muscle of DM2 patients and compared it to controls and were identified distinct miRNAs modulated in DM2 patients compared to controls. Our study included 10 DM2 and 9 control (CTR) muscle biopsies from biceps brachii. DM2 and CTR were age- and sex- matched. Most DM2 patients had myotonia and cataract, two disease hallmarks, while differences in other clinical parameters (muscle strenght, diabetes, CPK, FT3, FT4, TSH, ejection fraction) were not significant. miRNAs expression was assessed by Applied Biosystems Human TaqMan Low Density Array (TLDA, v1.0).

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 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:In this Study, we used RNA-targeting Cas9 (RCas9) to reverse characteristic Myotonic Dystrophy (DM1) cellular phenotypes such as elimination of RNA foci, MBNL relocalization, and reversal of transcriptome-wide splicing in a mouse model of myotonic Dystrophy (DM1). Furthermore we show that gene expression is not altered with RCas9 treatment in WT mice with or without treatment with immunosuppression
