Dystrophia Myotonica Biomarker Discovery Initiative

ABSTRACT: As part of the Dystrophia Myotonica Biomarker Discovery Initiative (DMBDI) a dataset was obtained from 35 participants, including 31 Myotonic Dystrophy type 1 (DM1) cases and four unaffected controls. All DM1 cases in this research were heterozygous for the abnormally expanded CTG repeat. The mode of the length of the DM1 CTG expansion (Modal Allele Length, MAL) was determined by small-pool PCR of blood DNA for 35/36 patients. For this work we did not attempt to measure the repeat length from muscle, due to a very high degree of repeat instability in muscle cells, and associated difficulties in its experimental measurement. One patient refused blood donation. For each of the 35 blood-donating patients mRNA expression profiling of blood was performed using Affymetrix GeneChip™ Human Exon 1.0 ST microarray. For 28 of 36 patients a successful quadriceps muscle biopsy was obtained. The muscle tissue was mRNA profiled using the same type of microarray. In total, a complete set of samples (blood and muscle) was obtained for 27 of 36 patients; samples were given a disease staging score based on muscle impairment rating. mRNA profiling was carried out by the GeneLogic service lab (on a fee-for-service basis) using standard Affymetrix hybridisation protocol.

The mechanism to dispose of misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum of adipocytes

Project description:Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD) and ER-phagy are two principal degradative mechanisms in the ER; however, the crosstalk between these two pathways and its physiological significance remain unexplored. Here we report that SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD limits autophagy and that, when ERAD is impaired, the ER becomes fragmented containing misfolded ER proteins or aggregates, which are subsequently cleared by autophagy. When both are compromised, ER fragments containing misfolded proteins spatially coalesce into a distinct architecture termed Coalescence of ER Fragments (CERFs), consisted of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and ER chaperones such as BiP. CERFs enlarge and become increasingly insoluble with age. Finally, we reconstitute the CERFs through LPL and BiP phase separation in vitro, a process controlled by both redox environment and C-terminal tryptophan loop of LPL. Hence, our findings demonstrate a profound cellular adaptation capability and plasticity, centered around SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD, in dealing with misfolded proteins or protein aggregates in the ER.

RNA sequencing of skeletal muscle of myotonic dystrophic (DM1) patients

Project description:Introduction: Myotonic dystrophy of type 1 (DM1), the most common dystrophy in adults, is an autosomal dominant inherited disease, affecting around 1 in 8000 person. Patients suffering from DM1 develop essentially muscle disorders such as myotonia, muscle weakness, muscle loss and atrophy. The disease is caused by the mutation of the DMPK "Dystrophia Myotonica Protein Kinase" gene. The mutation correspond to an abnormally large expansion of CTG tri-nucleotides repeats located in the 3'-untranslated region of this gene. Expanded CTG repeats are normally transcribed, but accumulates in RNA aggregates that sequester RNA-binding proteins such as the splicing regulator MBNL1. Consequently, due to MBNL1 sequestration, DM1 is characterized by aberrant splicing of a wide number of mRNA, which are themselves responsible for the symptoms observed in the disease. Purpose: To determine as much as possible novel splicing misregulations taking place in DM1 skeletal muscle, we performed a paired-end RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) using muscles samples of normal individuals (CTRL, n=3) versus muscles of DM1 patients (DM1, n=3). The data was analyzed by a bioinformatical software, called MISO, in order to map the alternative splicing changes between normal and DM1 muscle. The aim of this study was to get a broad and precise view of the splicing changes occurring in DM1 muscle.

Periostin as a blood biomarker of muscle cell fibrosis, cardiomyopathy and disease severity in myotonic dystrophy type 1

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.

Comparative analysis of Mbl attenuation and CUG non-coding repeats expression in Drosophila larval muscles

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a neuro-muscular disorder caused by CTG triplet expansion in the 3-UTR of the DMPK gene. Mutated transcripts aggregate in muscle nuclei and sequester the MBNL1 splicing factor. To assess the involvement of Mbl sequestration on transcriptpion deregulation in DM1, we performed genome wide analyses of gene expression of DM1 Drosophila model in three different genetic contexts: Mef>mblRNAi, Mef>600CTG, Mef>960CTG vs. Mef>lacZ control line.

Overexpression of the non-muscle RBFOX2 isoform triggers cardiac conduction defects in myotonic dystrophy

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a multisystemic genetic disorder caused by a CTG trinucleotide repeat expansion in the 3′ untranslated region of DMPK gene. Heart dysfunctions occur in nearly 80% of DM1 patients and are the second leading cause of disease-related deaths, yet, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Herein, we report that upregulation of a non-muscle splice isoform of RNA binding protein RBFOX2 in DM1 heart tissue—due to altered splicing factor and microRNA activities—induces the characteristic cardiac conduction defects detected in DM1 individuals. Mice engineered to express the non-muscle RBFOX2 isoform in heart via tetracycline- inducible transgenesis, or CRISPR/Cas9 targeted genome editing, reproduced DM1- related cardiac-conduction delay and spontaneous episodes of arrhythmia. Furthermore, by integrating RNA binding with cardiac transcriptome datasets of DM1 patients, and mice expressing the non-muscle RBFOX2 isoform, we identified a core network of RBFOX2-driven splicing defects in sodium, potassium, and calcium channels that can alter their rate of ion diffusion and electrophysiological properties. Thus, our results uncover a trans-dominant role for an aberrantly expressed RBFOX2 isoform in DM1 cardiac pathogenesis.

Aerobic training induces physiological and cellular benefits in myotonic dystrophy type 1 patients

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a progressive life-limiting neuromuscular disorder with no available cure. In the current study, we examined the extent to which 12-weeks of cycle ergometry can recuperate clinical and physiological metrics in DM1 patients. Furthermore, we studied the underlying mechanisms through which exercise elicits benefits in skeletal muscle. DM1 was associated with impaired muscle function, fitness, lung capacity, and mitochondrial function. Exercise training induced several clinical, physical, and metabolic advantages in DM1 patients. We highlight that exercise-induced molecular and cellular alterations in patients do not conform with previously published data in murine models and propose an alternative mechanism. Lastly, we briefly outline the involvement of small nucleolar RNAs as a novel component within the DM1 pathophysiology. Taken together, our data supports the efficacy of aerobic training to mitigate the relentless progression of DM1 in individuals affected.

Alternative splicing and gene expression in a mouse model of myotonic dystrophy

Project description:Distinct RNA-mediated impacts on alternative splicing and extracellular matrix gene expression in a mouse model of myotonic dystrophy. Myotonic dystrophy (DM1) is associated with expression of expanded CTG DNA repeats as RNA (CUGexp RNA). To test whether CUGexp RNA creates a global splicing defect, we compared skeletal muscle of two mouse DM1 models, one expressing a CTGexp transgene, and another homozygous for a defective Mbnl1 gene. Strong correlation in splicing changes for ~100 new Mbnl1-regulated exons indicates loss of Mbnl1 explains >80% of the splicing pathology due to CUGexp RNA. In contrast, only about half of mRNA level changes can be attributed to loss of Mbnl1, indicating CUGexp RNA has Mbnl1-independent effects, particularly on mRNAs for extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. We propose that CUGexp RNA causes two separate effects: loss of Mbnl1 function, disrupting splicing, and loss of another function that disrupts ECM mRNA regulation, possibly mediated by MBNL2. These findings reveal unanticipated similarities between DM1 and other muscular dystrophies. MBNL1 knockout and HSALR mice on FVB background. To test whether CUGexp RNA creates a global splicing defect, we compared skeletal muscle of two mouse DM1 models, one expressing a CTGexp transgene, and another homozygous for a defective Mbnl1 gene. These samples were compared to the skeletal muscle of a wildtype mouse.
