SIX1 and SIX4 homeoproteins regulate PAX7+ progenitor cell properties during fetal epaxial myogenesis

ABSTRACT: Identification of the gene targets of the SIX transcription factors in myogenic stem cells and in whole back muscles during murine fetal development Pax7 expression marks stem cells in developing skeletal muscles and adult satellite cells during homeostasis and muscle regeneration. The genetic determinants that control the entrance into the myogenic program and the appearance of PAX7+ cells during embryogenesis are poorly understood. SIX homeoproteins are encoded by the Sine oculis homeobox related Six1-Six6 genes in vertebrates. Six1, Six2, Six4 and Six5 are expressed in the muscle lineage. Here we tested the hypothesis that Six1 and Six4 could participate in the genesis of myogenic stem cells. We show that fewer PAX7+ cells occupy a satellite cell position between the myofiber and its associated basal lamina in Six1 and Six4 (s1s4KO) at E18. However, PAX7+ cells are detected in remaining muscle masses present in the epaxial region of the double mutant embryos and are able to divide and contribute to muscle growth. To further characterize the properties of s1s4KO PAX7+ cells, we analyzed their transcriptome and tested their properties after transplantation in adult regenerating tibialis anterior (TA) muscle. Mutant stem cells form hypotrophic myofibers that are not innervated but retain the ability to self-renew.

Differentiation of the human PAX7-positive myogenic precursors/satellite cell lineage in vitro

Project description:Satellite cells (SC) are muscle stem cells which can regenerate adult muscles upon injury. Most SC originate from PAX7+ myogenic precursors set aside during development. Although myogenesis has been studied in mouse and chicken embryos, little is known about human muscle development. Here, we report the generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) reporter lines in which fluorescent proteins have been introduced into the PAX7 and MYOG loci. We use single cell RNA sequencing to analyze the developmental trajectory of the iPSC-derived PAX7+ myogenic precursors. We show that the PAX7+ cells generated in culture can produce myofibers and self-renew in vitro and in vivo. Together, we demonstrate that cells exhibiting characteristics of human fetal satellite cells can be produced in vitro from iPSC, opening interesting avenues for muscular dystrophy cell therapy. This work provides significant insights into the development of the human myogenic lineage.

Direct reprogramming of mouse fibroblasts into functional skeletal muscle progenitors

Project description:Skeletal muscle harbors quiescent stem cells termed satellite cells and proliferative progenitors termed myoblasts, which play pivotal roles during muscle regeneration. However, current technology does not allow permanent capture of these cell populations in vitro. Here, we show that ectopic expression of the myogenic transcription factor MyoD, combined with exposure to small molecules, reprograms mouse fibroblasts into expandable induced myogenic progenitor cells (iMPCs). iMPCs express key skeletal muscle stem and progenitor cell markers including Pax7 and Myf5 and give rise to Dystrophin-expressing myofibers upon transplantation, a subset of which maintain Pax7 expression in vivo and sustain serial regenerative responses. Similar to satellite cells, iMPCs originate from Pax7+ cells and require Pax7 itself for maintenance. Finally, we show that iMPCs can be established from muscle tissue following small molecule exposure alone. This study thus reports on a robust approach to derive expandable myogenic stem/progenitor-like cells from multiple differentiated cell types.

Establishment of stably expandable induced myogenic stem cells by defined factors

Project description:Numerous studies have been conducted to improve the supply of myogenic stem cells for patients with muscle disease, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Collecting muscle samples from patients in order to obtain myoblasts or satellite cells is very invasive. Thus, a new method for obtaining myogenic stem cells is required. Here, we established stably expandable induced myogenic stem cells (iMSCs) with defined factors. The iMSCs showed high expression levels of Pax7, Myf5, and MyoD. Also, the iMSCs differentiate into myotubes which are multinucleated fiber. Additionally, the iMSCs differentiated into myotubes, which are multinucleated fibers. We confirmed its myogenic differentiation capacity in mdx mice by detecting dystrophin-positive cells in iMSCs-injected TA muscles. The iMSCs showed higher proliferation capacity than MDSCs in both in vitro and vivo. This study suggests the possibility to apply directly converted expandable myogenic stem cells to muscle disease patients.

Gene Expression Profiling of siRNA Knock-Down of Six1, Six4 and Myogenin in C2C12

Project description:Six1, Six4 and Myogenin are transcription factors that are known to be required for skeletal myogenesis. Currently, very little is known about the genes targeted by Six1 and Six4. Gene expression profiling when one or both transcription factors were knock-down by siRNA was performed to identify genes affected by their absence. We also hypothesized that Six1 and Six4 can work in cooperation with the myogenic regulatory factor (MRFs) family of transcription factors, such as Myogenin. Therefore, we performed the same type of experiment where the myogenin was knocked-down by siRNA to identify genes that are possibly regulated by the Six1 or Six4 in conjunction with Myogenin. C2C12 Myoblasts were transfected with siRNA against Six1, Six4, Six1 with Six4, Myogenin, or control 24h before start of differentiation. The cells were allowed to differentiate in differentiation medium for 24h and were harvested for gene expression profiling. Four replicates per siRNA were performed.

Muscle progenitor specification and myogenic differentiation are associated with changes in chromatin topology

Project description:Using Hi-C, promoter-capture Hi-C (pCHi-C), and other genome-wide approaches in skeletal muscle progenitors that inducibly express a master transcription factor, Pax7, we systematically characterized at high-resolution the spatio-temporal re-organization of compartments and promoter-anchored interactions as a consequence of myogenic commitment and differentiation. To further investigate transcriptional regulatory mechanisms governed by Pax7, we used immuno-affinity purification and mass spectrometric sequencing to identify the compendium of Pax7-associated proteins in muscle progenitors. Although Pax7-associated proteins have been identified in myoblasts, it is likely that such an approach would fail to uncover progenitor specific interactions with this protein. We therefore isolated chromatin from iPax7 cells engineered with a single, inducible copy of the Flag-tagged Pax7 transgene integrated next to the Hprt locus, which is expected to maintain expression levels comparable to those of satellite cells in the presence of Dox. Through purification of Flag-Pax7, we identified a cohort of factors and complexes involved in gene activation or repression and remodeling of chromatin and genome architecture that were substantially enriched compared to the uninduced control. We also identified a large cohort of sequence-specific TFs, including several that were shown to play an essential role in muscle stem cells (e.g., Foxk1, Six1, Runx1, Tead1, Nfix) and that are recruited to Pax7-bound enhancers in muscle cells. Importantly, we also confirmed multiple interactions from our proteomic screen through immunoprecipitation and western blotting.

Human muscle-derived CLEC14A-positive cells regenerate muscle independent of PAX7

Project description:Skeletal muscle stem cells, called satellite cells, are responsible for postnatal muscle growth, homeostasis and regeneration. Attempts to utilize the regenerative potential of muscle stem cells for therapeutic purposes so far failed. The transcription factor Pax7 defines satellite cells across species 1-4 . We previously established human PAX7-positive cell colonies with high regenerative potential 5 . We now identified PAX7-negative human muscle-derived cell colonies (PAX7neg) also positive for the myogenic markers desmin and MYF5. These included cells from a unique myopathic patient with rigid spine and respiratory insufficiency due to a homozygous PAX7 c.86-1G>A mutation (PAX7null). Single cell and bulk transcriptome analysis showed high intra- and inter-donor heterogeneity and revealed the endothelial cell marker CLEC14A to be highly expressed in PAX7null cells. All PAX7neg cell populations, including PAX7null, formed myofibers after transplantation into mice, and regenerated muscle after reinjury. Transplanted PAX7neg cells repopulated the satellite cell niche where they re-expressed PAX7. Strikingly, PAX7null cells expressing CLEC14A were also identified below the basal lamina. In summary, transplanted human cells do not depend on PAX7 for muscle regeneration. Thus, Pax7 is not a suitable marker for selection of optimal cells for muscle regenerative therapies.

Expression data from undifferentiated and iPS cells differentiated to a myogenic fate [hPAX7]

Project description:Here, we report the generation of human induced Pluripotent Stem (iPS) cell reporter line in which a venus fluorescent protein have been introduced into the PAX7 locus. We use microarrays to compare the transcriptome of PAX7-venus+ cells after 3 weeks of myogenic differentiation to that of undifferentiated iPS Satellite cells (SC) are muscle stem cells which can regenerate adult muscles upon injury. Most SC originate from PAX7-positive myogenic precursors set aside during development. While myogenesis has been studied in mouse and chicken embryos, little is known about human muscle development. Here, we use microarrays to compare the transcriptome of myogenic cells differentiated in vitro from human and mouse ES and iPS cells reporter cell lines. We generated fluorescent reporter lines in which a fluorescent protein was introduced into the loci coding for Pax7 (mouse ES and human iPS) or MYOG (human iPS). Mouse ES and human iPS cells were differentiated to the myogenic lineage in vitro for three weeks according to the protocols described in Chal et al, Nature Biotech 2015 and to Chal, Al Tanoury et al, Nature Protocols, 2016. Fluorescent Pax7 or MYOG-positive cells were FACS-sorted after 3-weeks of differentiation in vitro and we used Affymetrix microarrays to analyze the transcriptome of the purified mouse and human cell populations and compare it to the transcriptome of undifferentiated mouse ES or human iPS cells.

Identification of Pax7 target genes in muscle stem cells

Project description:Adult muscle stem cells, also known as muscle satellite cells, which are the resident tissue stem cells of skeletal muscle, provide myonuclei for postnatal muscle growth and for maintenance and regeneration in adults. Satellite cells specifically express the transcription factor pax7. The purpose of this study was to identify pax7 target genes and clarify the role of pax7 in muscle stem cell maintenance. We succeeded in generating Pax7-YFP knockin mice (Pax7-YFP KI) that can visualize endogenous pax7 expressed in satellite cells with YFP fluorescent protein. Novel pax7 target genes were identified by ChIP-sequencing (chromatin immunoprecipitation) analysis with muscle stem cells of Pax7-YFP KI mice.
