Transcriptomic analysis of cultured isogenic myotonic dystrophy type 1 myoblasts with and without the DMPK CTG repeat

ABSTRACT: RNA-seq on proliferating myoblasts of the DM11 line carrying 13 and 2600 CTG repeats in the DMPK gene, compared to their genome-edited counterparts without both the 13 and 2600 CTG repeat or just lacking the 2600 CTG repeat.

Recovery in the intrinsic myogenic program of congenital myotonic dystrophy myoblasts after excision of the expanded (CTG)n repeat

Project description:The congenital form of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (cDM) is caused by large-scale expansion of a (CTG•CAG)n repeat in DMPK and DM1-AS. Production of toxic transcripts with long trinucleotide tracts from these genes results in impediment of myogenic differentiation capacity as cDM’s most prominent morpho-phenotypic hallmark. In the current in vitro study, we compared the early differentiation programs of isogenic cDM myoblasts with and without a (CTG)2600 repeat obtained by gene editing. We found that excision of the repeat restored the ability of cDM myoblasts to engage in myogenic fusion, preventing that the ensuing myotubes remained immature. Although the cDM-typical epigenetic status of the DM1 locus and the expression of genes therein were not altered upon removal of the repeat, analyses at the transcriptome and proteome level revealed that early abnormalities in the temporal expression of differentiation regulators, myogenic progression markers and alternative splicing patterns before and immediately after the onset of differentiation became normalized. Our observation that molecular and cellular features of cDM are reversible and can be corrected by repeat-directed genome editing in muscle progenitors is important information for future development of gene therapy for different forms of DM1.

AntimiR blocking of miR-23b and -218 corrects myotonic dystrophy primary cell defects over a wide range of CTG repeat expansions.

Project description:This study tested candidate therapeutic antimiRs in a comprehensive new collection of primary myoblasts derived from myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) patients. DM1 is caused by genetically unstable CTG repeat expansions in the DMPK gene and has multiple clinical presentations, likely because of variable repeat sizes at the tissue and organ levels. Expanded DMPK transcripts deplete Muscleblind-Like Splicing Regulator protein MBNL1, which in turn causes DM1 symptoms. A promising therapeutic approach increases the expression of MBNL1 by blocking natural repressors miR-23b and miR-218 employing antimiRs with chemical modifications designed for a better pharmacological profile in humans. In untreated primary cells, we demonstrate that upregulated therapeutic targets miR-23b and miR-218 and reduced MBNL1 protein levels inversely correlate with CTG repeat size, supporting that active MBNL1 protein repression synergizes with the sequestration by CUG repeats in DM1. Upon treatment with novel antimiRs, multiple readouts of RNA toxicity associated with typical DM1 alterations improved. MBNL1-dependent exon inclusions, and myoblast fusion and myotube area defects, showed robust correction over a wide range of CTG expansions. Unexpectedly, antimiR treatment also reduced DMPK transcript levels and the number of ribonuclear aggregates. Based on these data, we selected a leading antimiR for further transcriptomics characterization and demonstrated that it reversed up to 68% of dysregulated genes. The study revealed that the candidate antimiRs could provide therapy to clinically relevant DM1 forms over a wide range of repeat sizes and genetic backgrounds by simultaneously reducing MBNL1 sequestration and derepressing protein synthesis.

Three-dimensional chromatin interactions remain stable upon CAG/CTG repeat expansion

Project description:Expanded CAG/CTG repeats underlie thirteen neurological disorders, including myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) and Huntington’s disease (HD). Upon expansion, CAG/CTG repeat loci acquire heterochromatic characteristics. This observation raises the hypothesis that repeat expansion provokes changes to higher-order chromatin conformation and thereby affects both gene expression in cis and the genetic instability of the repeat tract. Here we tested this hypothesis directly by performing 4C sequencing at the DMPK and HTT loci from DM1 and HD patient-derived cells. Surprisingly, chromatin contacts remain unchanged upon repeat expansion at both loci. This was true for expanded alleles with different DNA methylation levels and CTCF binding. Repeat tract sizes ranging from 15 to 1,700 repeats displayed strikingly similar chromatin interaction profiles. Moreover, the ectopic insertion of an expanded CAG repeat tract did not change the three-dimensional chromatin conformation of the surrounding genomic region. Our findings argue that extensive changes in heterochromatic properties are not enough to alter chromatin conformation at expanded CAG/CTG repeat loci. We conclude that 3D chromatin conformation is unlikely to drive repeat expansions or changes in gene expression in expanded CAG/CTG repeat disorders. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Gene expression data in MIO-M1-CTG(648) and MIO-MI-CTG(0) cells before and after doxycycline induction.

Project description:Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), the most frequent inherited muscular dystrophy in adults, is caused by the CTG repeat expansion in the 3’UTR of the DMPK gene. Mutant DMPK RNA accumulates in nuclear foci altering diverse cellular functions including alternative splicing regulation. DM1 is a multisystemic condition, with debilitating central nervous system alterations. Although a defective neuroglia communication has been described as a contributor of the brain pathology in DM1, the specific cellular and molecular events potentially affected in glia cells have not been totally recognized. Thus, to study the effects of DM1 mutation on glial physiology, in this work we have established an inducible DM1 model derived from the MIO-M1 cell line expressing 648 CUG repeats. This new model recreated the molecular hallmarks of DM1 elicited by a toxic RNA gain-of-function mechanism: accumulation of RNA foci colocalized with MBNL proteins and dysregulation of alternative splicing. By applying a microarray whole-transcriptome approach, we identified several gene changes associated with DM1 mutation in MIO-M1 cells, including the immune mediators CXCL10, CCL5, CXCL8, TNFAIP3, and TNFRSF9, as well as the microRNAs miR-222, miR-448, among others, as potential regulators. A gene ontology enrichment analyses revealed that inflammation and immune response emerged as major cellular deregulated processes in the MIO-M1 DM1 cells. Our findings indicate the involvement of an altered immune response in glia cells, opening new windows for the study of glia as potential contributor of the CNS symptoms in DM1. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from MIO-M1-CTG(648) and MIO-M1-CTG(0) with and witouth Doxycycline treatment (1µg/ml) by 8 days . These data are used to obtain genes that are differentially expressed in response to mutant (CUG expanded) DMPK RNA expression.

Cell-type specific dysregulation of RNA alternative splicing in short tandem repeat mouse knockin models of myotonic dystrophy

Project description:Short tandem repeats (STRs) are prone to expansion mutations that cause multiple hereditary neurological and neuromuscular diseases. To study pathomechanisms using mouse models that recapitulate the tissue specificity and developmental timing of an STR expansion gene, we used rolling circle amplification and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing to generate Dmpk CTG expansion (CTGexp) knockin models of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). We demonstrate that skeletal muscle myoblasts and brain choroid plexus epithelial cells are particularly susceptible to Dmpk CTGexp mutations and RNA mis-splicing. Our results implicate dysregulation of muscle regeneration and cerebrospinal fluid homeostasis as early pathogenic events in DM1.
