Transcription profiling of mouse myoblast samples treated with a panel of compounds known to affect cellular differentiation or its reversal

ABSTRACT: A Single Cell Analysis of Myogenic Dedifferentiation Induced by Small Molecules An important direction in chemical biology is the derivation of compounds that affect cellular differentiation or its reversal. The fragmentation of multinucleate myofibers into viable mononucleates (called cellularisation) occurs during limb regeneration in urodele amphibians and the isolation of myoseverin, a tri-substituted purine that could apparently activate this pathway of myogenic dedifferentiation in mammalian cells, generated considerable interest. We have explored the mechanism and outcome of cellularisation at a single cell level, and report findings that significantly extend the previous work with myoseverin. Using a panel of compounds, including a novel triazine compound called 109 with structural similarity and comparable activity to myoseverin, we have identified microtubule disruption as critical for activation of the response. Our analysis has included the related control triazine compound 401, and the microtubule disrupting agent nocodazole. Time-lapse microscopy has enabled us to analyse the fate of identified mononucleate progeny, and directly assess the extent of dedifferentiation.

An important direction in chemical biology is the derivation of compounds that affect cellular differentiation or its reversal. The fragmentation of multinucleate myofibers into viable mononucleates (called cellularization) occurs during limb regeneration in urodele amphibians, and the isolation of myoseverin, a trisubstituted purine that could apparently activate this pathway of myogenic dedifferentiation in mammalian cells, generated considerable interest.

Project description:Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) were adipogenically differentiated followed by dedifferentiation. We are interested to know the new fat markers, adipogenic signaling pathways and dedifferentiation signaling pathways.Furthermore we are also intrested to know that how differentiated cells convert into dedifferentiated progenitor cells. To address these questions, MSC were adipogenically differentiated, followed by dedifferentiation. Finally these dedifferentiated cells were used for adipogenesis, osteogenesis and chondrogenesis. Histology, FACS, qPCR and GeneChip analyses of undifferentiated, adipogenically differentiated and dedifferentiated cells were performed. Regarding the conversion of adipogenically differentiated cells into dedifferentiated cells, gene profiling and bioinformatics demonstrated that upregulation (DHCR24, G0S2, MAP2K6, SESN3) and downregulation (DST, KAT2, MLL5, RB1, SMAD3, ZAK) of distinct genes play a curcial role in cell cycle to drive the adipogenically differentiated cells towards an arrested state to narrow down the lineage potency. However, the upregulation (CCND1, CHEK, HGF, HMGA2, SMAD3) and downregulation (CCPG1, RASSF4, RGS2) of these cell cycle genes motivates dedifferentiation of adipogenically differentiated cells to reverse the arrested state. We also found new fat markers along with signaling pathways for adipogenically differentiated and dedifferentiated cells, and also observed the influencing role of proliferation associated genes in cell cycle arrest and progression. We have differentiated bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells(MSC) into adipogenically differentiated cells followed by dedifferentiation. We are intrested to know new fat markers, signaling pathways for adipogenically differentiated and dedifferentiated cells, along to observe the genes associated with cell cycle arrest and progression. Results are also provide molecular insight into the process of adipogenesis and dedifferentiation. To study the adipogenic differentiation and dedifferentiation process along with "how adipogenically differentiated cells convert into dedifferentiated cells" on the molecular level, gene expression profiling with genome-wide Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 olgonucleotide microarrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, USA) was applied. In total, 12 GeneChips were performed for n=3 donors and 4 times (3x4=12): 3x P4 MSC (undifferentiated state), 3x adipogenically differentiated cells at day 15 (differentiated state), 3x dedifferentiated cells at day 7 (dedifferentiated state) and 3x dedifferentiated cells at day 35 (dedifferentiated state)
