Transcriptional Profiling Reveals Extraordinary Diversity Among Skeletal Muscle Tissues

ABSTRACT: Skeletal muscles are a diverse family of highly specialized tissues that perform a wide array of physiological activities and maintain whole-body glucose metabolism and energy homeostasis. Functional diversity is a distinctive feature of muscle tissues, which demonstrate remarkable variability in their speed of contraction, metabolic profile, resistance to fatigue, and regenerative capacity. Unsurprisingly, many disorders of skeletal muscle afflict a remarkably specific subset of tissues, including muscular dystrophies, cancer cachexia, aging sarcopenia, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Taken as a whole, these observations indicate that specific genetic programs establish and maintain physiological specialization of muscle tissues. Elucidating these genetic programs is essential to understanding muscle specialization and propensity for disease. Nevertheless, most global profiling studies performed to-date have not directly addressed intrinsic variability between different muscle tissues. This gap in the literature is particularly glaring for more sophisticated mechanisms of gene expression regulation such as circadian control, post-transcriptional regulation and non-coding RNA expression, despite their well-established roles in many disease mechanisms. In an effort to understand the variability present within specific skeletal muscles with respect to gene expression, our lab has performed RNA-Seq on a variety of skeletal muscle tissues.

Oxidative posttranslational modifications of cysteine are associated to high intrinsic aerobic capacity in the skeletal and cardiac muscle

Project description:Oxidative posttranslational modifications (Ox-PTMs) regulate cellular homeostasis in several tissues, including skeletal and cardiac muscles. The putative relationship between Ox-PTMs and intrinsic components of oxidative energy metabolism has not been previously described. We determined the metabolic phenotype and the Ox-PTM profile in the skeletal and cardiac muscles of rats selected for low (LCR) or high (HCR) intrinsic aerobic capacity. The HCR rats have a pronounced increase in mitochondrial content and antioxidant capacity when compared to LCR rats in the skeletal muscle, but only modest changes in the cardiac muscle. Redox proteomics analysis reveals that HCR and LCR rats have different Ox-PTM of cysteine (Cys) residue profile in the skeletal and cardiac muscles. HCR rats have higher number of oxidized Cys residues in the skeletal muscle and conversely display higher number of reduced Cys residues in the cardiac muscle than LCR rats. Most of the proteins with differentially oxidized Cys residues in the skeletal muscle are important regulators of the oxidative metabolism. The most significantly oxidized protein in the skeletal muscle of HCR rats is malate dehydrogenase (MDH1). Interestingly, HCR rats show higher MDH1 activity in the skeletal muscle, but not in the cardiac muscle. Thus, this study uncovers an association between Ox-PTMs and intrinsic aerobic capacity, providing new insights into the role of Ox-PTMs as essential signaling to maintain metabolic homeostasis in different muscle types.

Expression data from skeletal muscles of flies with muscle-specific overexpression of Foxo or Mnt

Project description:Skeletal muscle senescence influences whole organism aging, yet little is known on the relay of pro-longevity signals from muscles to other tissues. We performed an RNAi screen in Drosophila for muscle-released cytokines ('myokines') regulating lifespan and identified Myoglianin, the homolog of human Myostatin. Myoglianin is induced in skeletal muscles by the transcription factor Mnt and together they constitute an inter-organ signaling module that regulates lifespan, age-related muscle dysfunction, and protein synthesis across aging tissues. Both Mnt and Myoglianin activate already in young age the protective decline in protein synthesis that is typical of old age, while knock-down of Myoglianin impairs this process. Mechanistically, Mnt decreases the expression of nucleolar components in muscles while also decreasing nucleolar size in distant tissues via Myostatin/p38 MAPK signaling. Our results highlight a myokine-dependent inter-organ longevity pathway that coordinates nucleolar function and protein synthesis across aging tissues. Affymetrix microarrays were used to evaluate genome-wide expression in skeletal muscles of flies with muscle-specific overexpression of FOXO or Mnt (Affymetrix Drosophila Genome 2.0 Array). This design allowed us to identify genes and pathways induced by overexpression of FOXO and/or Mnt, and enabled us to address the degree to which FOXO-induced pathways were independent of those induced by Mnt.

Identification of genes regulated by long noncoding RNA H19 in skeletal muscle

Project description:Soleus muscle has the most abundant H19 expression compared to other skeletal muscle tissues. In order to identify genes regulated by long noncoding RNA H19 in skeletal muscle, we performed RNA-Seq with dissected WT and H19KO soleus muscles from 21 week old mice. Among the differentially expressed genes, we found skeletal muscle - overexpressed gene DUSP27, which potentially plays an important role in regulating skeletal muscle glucose metabolisim by regulating the activitiy of AMPK, might be a target of H19 mediated regulation.

Gene expression analysis in skeletal muscle and heart of 11 days-old TK2 knockout mice

Project description:TK2 deficiency causes severe mtDNA depeltion in several tissues, including skeletal muscle and heart. TK2 knockout mice grow slower and their skeletal muscles appeared significantly underdeveloped, whereas heart was close to normal size. We used microarrays in order to compare the transcriptomes in skeletal muscle and heart tissue of 11 days-old TK2 knockout pups with the sames tissues of wild-type pups at the same age. We collected skeletal muscle from the hind limb and hearts of three 11 days-old TK2 knockout and three wild-type pups and extracted total RNA. These RNA samples were used for hybridization in Affymetrix arrays.

Characterization of miRNA transcriptome of skeletal muscle from broiler and layer chicken lines by deep sequencing

Project description:In the current study, we expanded our previous work to identify miRNAs implicated in the myogenesis regulation through the comparison of miRNAs transcriptome in skeletal muscle tissues between broilers and layers. To address that, we firstly performed Solexa deep sequencing to profile miRNAs expressed in chicken skeletal muscle tissues. Sequence tags analyses not only enable us to report a group of highly abundant known miRNAs expressed in skeletal muscles but most importantly to identify novel putative chicken miRNAs from skeletal muscle tissue. Further miRNA transcriptome comparison and real-time RT-PCR validation experiments revealed seveal differentially expressed miRNAs between broilers and layers.

Muscle specific proteasome deficient mice

Project description:The ubiquitin-proteasome and autophagy-lysosome pathways are the two major routes for protein and organelle clearance. In skeletal muscle, both systems’ excessive activation induces severe muscle loss. Although altered proteasomal function has been observed in various myopathies, the specific role of proteasomal activity in skeletal muscle has not been determined by loss-of-function approaches. Here, we report that muscle-specific deletion of a crucial proteasomal gene, Rpt3, resulted in profound muscle atrophy and decrease in force. Rpt3 null muscles showed reduced proteasomal activity in early age, accumulation of basophilic structure, disorganization of sarcomere, and formation of vacuoles and concentric membranous structures in electronmicroscope. We also observed accumulation of ubiquitin, p62, LC3, TDP43, FUS and VCP proteins. Proteasomal activity is important to preserve muscle mass and to maintain myofiber integrity. Our results suggest that inhibition/alteration of proteasomal activity can contribute to myofiber degeneration and weakness in muscle disorders, such as inclusion body myositis, characterized by accumulation of abnormal inclusions. Tibialis anterior muscles from Rpt3 null and control mice. each 3 mice.

miRNA expression in fast and slow skeletal muscle of wild type and SOD1-G93A mice

Project description:Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a lethal motor neuron disease that progressively debilitates neuronal cells that control voluntary muscle activity. In a mouse model of ALS that expresses mutated human superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1-G93A) skeletal muscle is one of the tissues affected early by mutant SOD1 toxicity. Fast-twitch and slow-twitch muscles are differentially affected in ALS patients and in the SOD1-G93A model, fast-twitch muscles being more vulnerable. We used miRNA microarrays to investigate miRNA alterations in fast-twitch (EDL) and slow-twitch (soleus) skeletal muscles of symptomatic SOD1-G93A animals and their age-matched wild type littermates.
