Transcriptomics of heart and muscle tissues of transgenic or mdx mice (DMD disease model) with UAA incorporation systems

ABSTRACT: We constructed the trans/mdx mice as a novel DMD disease model by crossing transgenic mice and mdx mice. The transgenic and trans/mdx mice have UAA incorporation system that can readthrough the nonsense mutation in the dmd gene with additional UAA. The whole transcriptomics of heart and muscle tissues of 5 mouse groups (n=2) were used to determine whether the introduced UAA incorporation system affect the normal gene expression of mice, or the safety of the system. Groups include: a) wild-type C57BL/6N mice; b) transgenic mice; c) mdx mice; d) trans/mdx mice without UAA; e) trans/mdx mice with UAA (50 mg NAEK every 2-3 day, treated for 4 weeks). The total numbers of expressed genes were around 11,000 in all 5 mouse groups. The expression levels of major genes (logFPKM>0) in 5 mouse groups were also close to each other. These data indicated that the UAA incorporation system was safe and could serve as a potential therapeutic strategy for DMD disease. The transgenic mice with UAA incorporation system we constructed could also cross with other nonsense mutation mice to build more functional animal models.

Jarrah2014 - mathematical model of the immune response in muscle degeneration and subsequent regeneration in Duchenne muscular dystrophy in mdx mice

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a genetic disease that results in the death of affected boys by early adulthood.The genetic defect responsible for DMD has been known for over 25 years, yet at present there is neither cure nor effective treatment for DMD. During early disease onset, the mdx mouse has been validated as an animal model for DMD and use of this model has led to valuable but incomplete insights into the disease process. For example, immune cells are thought to be responsible for a significant portion of muscle cell death in the mdx mouse; however, the role and time course of the immune response in the dystrophic process have not been well described. In this paper we constructed a simple mathematical model to investigate the role of the immune response in muscle degeneration and subsequent regeneration in the mdx mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Our model suggests that the immune response contributes substantially to the muscle degeneration and regeneration processes. Furthermore, the analysis of the model predicts that the immune system response oscillates throughout the life of the mice, and the damaged fibers are never completely cleared.

iTRAQ Protemics of mdx vs. mdx/Actg1-TG mouse skeletal muscle

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked recessive disease caused by deleterious mutations in the DMD gene, rendering non-functional forms or complete absence of the protein dystrophin. Eccentric contraction-induced force loss is the most robust and reproducible phenotype of dystrophin-deficient skeletal muscle, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying force loss remain obscure. To this end, we utilized the mdx mouse model of DMD, which displays extreme sensitivity to eccentric contractions. An existing mouse line from our lab that overexpresses cytoplasmic gamma-actin specifically in skeletal muscle (mdx/Actg1-TG) was shown to significantly protect mdx muscle against contraction-induced force loss. To understand the mechanism behind this protection, we performed iTRAQ proteomics on mdx/Actg1-TG tibialis anterior (TA) muscle versus non-transgenic littermate controls to identify differentially-expressed proteins that may afford protection upon gamma-actin overexpression.

Loss of full-length dystrophin expression causes major cell-autonomous abnormalities in proliferating myoblasts

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a severely debilitating and incurable neuromuscular disease. Its conspicuous feature is the absence of dystrophin in myofibers and therefore most therapeutic approaches focus on some form of its re-expression there. However, increasing body of evidence points at an early developmental onset of DMD and severe abnormalities were uncovered in dystrophic muscle stem cells. In this study, we explore gene expression changes in primary myoblasts from mice lacking expression of the full length dystrophin transcript. Total RNA extracted from primary myoblasts isolated from gastrocnemii of 8 week old male Dmd-mdx (MDX - lacking the full length dystrophin transcript), Dmd-mdx-βgeo (BGEO - lacking all dystrophin expression) and control mice (WT) were subjected to RNA sequencing following ribodepletion, and analysed for the differential expression of genes between groups and the enrichment of gene ontology categories or pathways.

Transcription profiling of mouse mdx animals expressing high levels of utrophin therapeutic implications for DMD

Project description:Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal muscle wasting disorder caused by dystrophin deficiency. Previous work suggested that increased expression of the dystrophin-related protein utrophin in the mdx mouse model of DMD can prevent dystrophic pathophysiology. Physiological tests showed that the transgenic mouse muscle functioned in a way similar to normal muscle. More recently, it has become possible to analyse disease pathways using microarrays, a sensitive method to evaluate the efficacy of a therapeutic approach. We thus examined the gene expression profile of mdx mouse muscle compared to normal mouse muscle and compared the data with that obtained from the transgenic line expressing utrophin. The data confirm that the expression of utrophin in the mdx mouse muscle results in a gene expression profile virtually identical to that seen for the normal mouse. This study confirms that a strategy to up-regulate utrophin is likely to be effective in preventing the disease. Experiment Overall Design: Here we have addressed important question of changes in the global gene expression profile of mdx mouse muscle compared to normal mouse muscle and compared the data with that obtained from the transgenic line (fiona) expressing high level of utrophin on mdx background.

Gene expression profiles using microarrays in mdx and mdx/MMP-2-/- mice at 1 and 3 months of age

Project description:Matrix metalloprotease (MMP) -2 has been reported to be up-regulated in skeletal muscle in the lethal X-linked muscle disorder Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), which is caused by loss of dystrophin. However, the role of MMP-2 in dystrophin-deficient muscle is not well known. The aim of this study was to verify the role of MMP-2 in dystrophin-deficient muscle by using mdx mice with genetic ablation of MMP-2 (mdx/MMP-2-/-). Gene expression profiles were analyzed in the skeletal muscle of mdx and mdx/MMP-2-/- mice at 1 and 3 months of age. Tibialis anterior muscle was isolated from four groups of mice (mdx and mdx/MMP-2-/- mice at 1 and 3 months of age). Total RNA was purified and prepared for hybridization to Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays (Affymetrix Inc., Santa Clara, CA, USA) using Affymetrix reagents and protocols. The mRNA levels of differentially expressed genes from gene chip analysis were confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR assay.

Transcriptomic analysis of mdx mouse muscles reveals a signature of early human Duchenne muscular dystrophy

Project description:The mdx mouse (C57BL/10ScSn-DMDmdx/J), like Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients, lacks the protein dystrophin. However, the mdx mouse has a normal lifespan and mild pathology while DMD remains a severe, fatal disease. New mouse models have been developed that are more severely affected but they have not replaced the mdx mouse in DMD research. A few years ago RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) results of biopsies from DMD and normal human muscle were published but we could not find equivalent data for the mouse. We now report RNA-sequencing of three wild-type and mdx mouse muscles: the flexor digitorum brevis (FDB), the extensor digitorum longus (EDL), and the soleus (SOL). The FDB, a plantar foot muscle is often used for in vivo and ex vivo experiments but may be less affected by the lack of dystrophy than the hindlimb muscles. We compared muscles from 2- and 5-month old mice to investigate the time-course of the mdx pathology. The results show a muscle- and age-dependent parallel between mdx and DMD muscles. Although the FDB is less affected than EDL and SOL at 2 months, the three muscles show, at both ages, activation of close to 100 genes from 7 pathways that are affected in presymptomatic DMD patients and have been called "DMD disease signature".

Array profiling of dystrophin-deficient mice with a secondary glycosylation defect

Project description:A deletion in the CMAH gene in humans occurred approximately 3.5 million years ago. This resulted in the inactivation of the CMP-Neu5Ac hydroxylase enzyme, and hence, in the specific deficiency in N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc), a form of sialic acid, in all modern humans. Although there is evidence that this molecular milestone in the origin of humans may have led to the evolution of human-specific pathogens, how deficiency in Neu5Gc might alter progression of non-infectious human diseases remains unanswered. Here, we have investigated cardiac and skeletal muscle gene expression changes in mdx mice, a model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), that do or do not carry the human-like inactivating mutation in the mouse Cmah gene. We have evidence that Neu5Gc-deficiency in humans might explain some of the discrepancies in the disease phenotype between mdx mice and DMD patients. The study had four groups of mice: 1) Wild type, 2) Cmah KO (mice carrying a human-like mutation in the Cmah gene and hence have human-like deficiency in Neu5Gc sialic acid), 3) mdx (mouse model for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy), and 4) mdx mice deficient in Cmah. Gene expression was studied in heart and gastrocnemius muscle samples. Three replicates per group/tissue.

Multi-level omics analysis of dystrophin loss and therapeutic restoration in a murine model [microRNA]

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a classical monogenic disorder, a model disease for genomic studies and a priority candidate for regenerative medicine and gene therapy. Although the genetic cause of DMD is well known, the molecular pathogenesis of disease and the response to therapy are incompletely understood. Here, we describe analyses of protein, mRNA and microRNA expression in the tibialis anterior of the mdx mouse model of DMD. Notably, 3272 proteins were quantifiable and 525 identified as differentially expressed in mdx muscle (P < 0.01). Therapeutic restoration of dystrophin by exon skipping induced widespread shifts in protein and mRNA expression towards wild-type expression levels, whereas the miRNome was largely unaffected. Comparison analyses between datasets showed that protein and mRNA ratios were only weakly correlated (r = 0.405), and identified a multitude of differentially affected cellular pathways, upstream regulators and predicted miRNA–target interactions. This study provides fundamental new insights into gene expression and regulation in dystrophic muscle. 3 Wt, 4 mdx and 4 Pip6e-PMO treated mdx mice
