Large-scale expansion of human iPSC-derived skeletal muscle cells for disease modeling and cell-based therapeutic strategies

ABSTRACT: Although skeletal muscle cells can be generated from human iPSCs, transgene-free protocols include only limited options for their purification and expansion. In this study we found that FACS-purified myogenic progenitors generated from healthy controls and Pompe disease iPSCs can be robustly expanded as much as 5 x 1011 fold. At all steps during expansion, cells could be cryopreserved or differentiated into myotubes with a high fusion index. In vitro, cells were amenable to maturation into striated and contractile myofibers. Insertion of the acid alpha glucosidase cDNA into the AAVS1 locus in iPSCs using CRISPR/cas9 prevented glycogen accumulation in myotubes generated from a patient with classic infantile Pompe disease. In vivo, the expression of human-specific nuclear and sarcolemmar antigens indicated that myogenic progenitors engraft into murine muscle to form human myofibers. This protocol is useful for modeling of skeletal muscle disorders and for using patient-derived, gene-corrected cells to develop cell-based strategies.

GAA deficiency in Pompe disease is alleviated by exon inclusion in iPS cell-derived skeletal muscle cells

Project description:While there are many human skeletal muscle disorders, very few therapies have been developed. It has not been possible to generate large amounts of purified skeletal muscle cells from pluripotent stem cells, and to test therapies quantitatively. We therefore devised conditions for generating and expanding purified human myogenic progenitors from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. The progenitors retained the capacity to differentiate into multinucleated myotubes and showed a normal karyotype throughout the expansion phase. We applied this method to Pompe disease, a metabolic myopathy caused by deficiency of the lysosomal enzyme acid alpha-glucosidase (GAA). In a screen, we identified sequences that suppressed aberrant GAA exon 2 splicing caused by the frequent c.-32-13T>G (IVS1) GAA variant. Antisense oligonucleotides (AONs) that blocked these sequences promoted exon 2 inclusion in patient-derived myotubes. As this raised GAA enzymatic activity above the disease threshold, AON-mediated splicing correction may provide a treatment option for Pompe disease.

Transcriptomic profile of hiPSC-derived myoblasts and myotubes coated on distinct substrates

Project description:Driving efficient and pure skeletal muscle cell differentiation from pluripotent stem cells has been challenging. Here, we report an optimized protocol that generates skeletal muscle progenitor cells with high efficiency and purity, in a short period of time. Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) and mouse embryonic stem cells (mESC) were specified into the mesodermal myogenic fate using distinct and species-specific protocols. We used a specific Maturation Medium to promote terminal differentiation of both human and mouse myoblast populations, and generated myotubes associated with a large pool of cell cycle-arrested PAX7+ cells. We further show that myotube maturation is modulated by the dish coating properties, cell density and percentage of myogenic progenitor cells. Given the high efficiency in the generation of myogenic progenitors and differentiated myofibers, this protocol provides an attractive strategy for tissue engineering, modeling of muscle dystrophies and evaluation of new therapeutic approaches in vitro.

A self-renewing biomimetic skeletal muscle construct engineered using induced myogenic progenitor cells

Project description:Skeletal muscle is a highly organized and regenerative tissue that maintains its homeostasis primarily by activation and differentiation of muscle stem cells. Mimicking an in vitro skeletal muscle differentiation program that contains self-renewing adult muscle stem cells and aligned myotubes has been challenging. Here, we set out to engineer a biomimetic skeletal muscle construct that can self-regenerate and produce aligned myotubes using induced myogenic progenitor cells (iMPCs), a heterogeneous culture consisting of skeletal muscle stem, progenitor and differentiated cells. Utilizing electrospinning, we fabricated polycaprolactone (PCL) substrates that enabled iMPC-differentiation into aligned myotubes by controlling PCL fiber orientation. Newly-conceived constructs contained highly organized multinucleated myotubes in conjunction with self-renewing muscle stem cells, whose differentiation capacity was augmented by Matrigel supplementation. Additionally, we demonstrate using single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) that iMPC-derived constructs faithfully recapitulate a step-wise myogenic differentiation program. Notably, when the constructs were subjected to a damaging myonecrotic agent, self-renewing muscle stem cells rapidly differentiated into aligned myotubes, akin to skeletal muscle repair in vivo. Taken together, we report on a novel in vitro system that mirrors myogenic regeneration and muscle fiber alignment, and can serve as a platform to study myogenesis, model muscular dystrophies or perform drug screens.

Notch signaling/MyoD double deficient embryonic muscle progenitors

Project description:Skeletal muscle growth and regeneration rely on myogenic progenitor and satellite cells, the stem cells of postnatal muscle. Elimination of Notch signals during mouse development results in premature differentiation of myogenic progenitors and formation of very small muscle groups. Here we show that this drastic effect is rescued by mutation of the muscle differentiation factor MyoD. However, rescued myogenic progenitors do not assume a satellite cell position and contribute poorly to myofiber growth. The disrupted homing is due to a deficit in basal lamina assembly around emerging satellite cells and to their impaired adhesion to myofibers. On a molecular level, emerging satellite deregulate the expression of basal lamina components and adhesion molecules like integrin a7, collagen XVIIIa1, Megf10 and Mcam. We conclude that Notch signals control homing of satellite cells, stimulating them to contribute to their own microenvironment and to adhere to myofibers.

Comparative analysis of the proteome and transcriptome transition in goat skeletal muscle stem cells, myoblast and myotube

Project description:Enhancing the proliferation and myogenic commitment of progenitor cells during fetal development enhances muscle growth and lean production in offspring. During the early development, a pool of skeletal stem cells (SSCs) proliferates and then diverge into either myoblast. Myoblast further fusion and develop into myotube. However, the landscape from muscle stem cells to myotubes in goats is not yet clear. This study aims to characterize the changes in the expression profile of skeletal muscle stem cells that differentiate into myoblasts, then migrate and fuse to form myotubes.

Assessment of myogenic maturation for human iPSC-derived iPAX7 myogenic progenitors in vitro and in vivo

Project description:Here, we transplanted human iPAX7 myogenic progenitors into skeletal muscles of non-dystrophic and dystrophic mice and compared the transcriptional landscape of human donor-derived myofibers with respective in vitro-differentiated iPAX7 myotubes. Pairing bulk RNA sequencing with computational deconvolution of human reads, we were able to pinpoint key myogenic changes that occur during the in vitro-to-in vivo transition, confirm developmental maturity, and consequently further suggest the utility of cell-based therapies.

Molecular mechanisms implicated in myogenic differentiation of human alveolar mucosa derived cells

Project description:Different approaches of skeletal muscle cell regeneration originated from progenitor cells are extensively studied under the strategies of muscle tissue pathologies treatment. Recently it was discovered that anatomically localized alveolar mucosa multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (AMC) are characterized by myogenic potential and high feasibility for muscle tissue recovery and regeneration. Although the resulting multinuclear myotubes are featured by expressing skeletal muscle specific markers (skeletal myosin, actin, myogenin and MyoD1) the exact molecular mechanism controlling differentiation of AMC in myogenic direction is still unclear and poorly scrutinized. In this research we used combination of large-scale transcriptome analysis and bioinformatics approach to appreciate molecular pathways and crucial nodes responsible for myogenic differentiation.

Aging disrupts gene expression timing during muscle regeneration

Project description:Skeletal muscle function and regenerative capacity decline during aging, yet factors driving these changes are incompletely understood. Muscle regeneration requires temporally coordinated transcriptional programs to drive myogenic stem cells to activate, proliferate, fuse to form myofibers, and to mature myonuclei, restoring muscle function after injury. We assessed global changes in myogenic transcription programs distinguishing muscle regeneration in aged mice from young mice by comparing pseudotime trajectories from single-nucleus RNA sequencing of myogenic nuclei. Aging-specific differences in coordinating myogenic transcription programs necessary for restoring muscle function occur following muscle injury, likely contributing to compromised regeneration in aged mice. Differences in pseudotime alignment of myogenic nuclei when comparing aged to young mice via Dynamic Time-Warping revealed pseudotemporal differences becoming progressively more severe as regeneration proceeds. Disruptions in timing of myogenic gene expression programs may contribute to incomplete skeletal muscle regeneration and declines in muscle function as organisms age.

Transcriptional landscape of human myogenesis reavels a key role of TWIST1 in maintenance of skeletal muscle progenitors

Project description:Derivation of human skeletal muscle in vitro with human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) opens new avenues for deciphering essential, but poorly understood aspects of transcriptional regulation in myogenic specification and relevance to rare genetic diseases. We characterized the transcriptional landscape of distinct human myogenic stages, including OCT4::EGFP+ PSCs, MSGN1::EGFP+ presomites, PAX7::EGFP+ skeletal muscle progenitors, MYOG::EGFP+ myoblasts, and multinucleated myotubes. We defined signature gene expression profiles from each population with unbiased clustering analysis, which provided unique insights into the transcriptional dynamics of human myogenesis from undifferentiated hPSCs to fully differentiated myotubes. Using knock-out strategy, we identified TWIST1 as a critical factor in maintenance of human PAX7::EGFP+ putative skeletal muscle progenitors, providing an explanation for the musculoskeletal symptoms of a rare genetic disease, Saethre-Chotzen syndrome. We have established a foundation for future studies to identify regulators of human myogenic ontogeny.

A transcriptomic study of myogenic differentiation under the overexpression of PPARγ by RNA-Seq

Project description:To study the cellular and molecular function of PPARγ in skeletal muscle differentiation, we have generated inducible gain-of-function to overexpress PPARγ in C2C12 skeletal muscle cells. In order to identify PPARγ targets, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was used to evaluate and quantify of transcriptomes and expression patterns during myogenic differentiation under the overexpression of PPARγ. The formation of myotubes and the expression of muscle-specific myogenic genes such as MyoD and MyoG may be inhibited by any altered expression of PPARγ. Multiple genes and pathways were significantly involved in this process, including 11 genes such as Fndc9 and Slc14a1 with fundamental change of regulation modes, 9 genes of which were validated by the data of qRT-PCR. Our studies demonstrate that PPARγ would play critical roles on the skeletal muscle cells differentiation, mediating crosstalk among several pathways and transcription factors.
