Project description:MyoD is known to transdifferentiate fibroblasts into muscle-like cells. Despite phenotypic resemblance and expression of myogenic marker genes in transdifferentiated cells, our global gene expression data suggests that ~100 genes, many involved in muscle development and function, remain non-reprogrammed. To understand this incomplete reprogramming, we characterized genome-wide chromatin accessibility and MyoD binding in human primary myoblasts and in MyoD-induced skin fibroblast cells. Our analyses revealed thousands of sites with incomplete chromatin reprogramming.Combined analyses of gene expression and epigenetic profiles revealed that many myogenic genes not upregulated during the transdifferentiation process have undergone MyoD-dependent chromatin remodeling, but to a significantly lower extent than reprogrammed genes. Our findings suggest that incomplete MyoD-induced transdifferentiation is due to chromatin-remodeling deficiencies, and that additional factors are required to transdifferentiate cells into a state more similar to myoblasts.

Project description:In this study, we used C3H/10T1/2 cells, a well known model of myogenic conversion, to study the effect of Six4 knockdown on the expression of genes during fibroblasts to myocytes conversion induced by ectopic expression of MyoD We established C3H/10T1/2 cell line with stable Six4 knockdown by short hairpin RNA (shSix4) vs a control cell line (shLuc) and converted these cells into myogenic lineage by retroviral transduction of plasmid encoding Flag-MyoD-myc (pBABE-MyoD) or empty plasmid (pBABE). Cells were then induced to differentiate for 24 hours before RNA extraction.

Project description:The generation of myotubes from fibroblasts upon forced MyoD expression is a classic example of factor-induced reprogramming in mammals. We recently discovered that additional modulation of signaling pathways with small molecules facilitates reprogramming to more primitive induced muscle progenitor cells (iMPCs). However, the mechanisms by which a single transcription factor drives differentiated cells into distinct developmental states remain unknown. We therefore dissected the transcriptional and epigenetic dynamics of fibroblasts undergoing MyoD-dependent reprogramming to either myotubes or iMPCs using a novel MyoD transgenic model. To this end, we performed single cell RNA sequencing for Pax7-nGFP positive iMPCs/satellite cells and cells undergoing dedifferentiation (i.e. Dox+FRG) or transdifferentiation (i.e. Dox) Our analyses elucidate the role of MyoD in myogenic reprogramming and derive general principles by which transcription factors and signaling pathways cooperate to rewire cell identity. Our results may also inform on potential therapeutic applications of direct reprogramming.

Project description:Synthetic transcription factors can be applied to many areas of biotechnology, medicine, and basic research. Currently, the most common method for engineering synthetic transcription factors has been based on programmable DNA-binding domains of zinc finger proteins, Transcription Activator-Like Effectors (TALEs), and most recently the CRISPR/Cas9 system. These transcription factor platforms consist of the DNA-binding domain fused to potent transcriptional activation domains, most commonly the tetramer of the minimal transactivation domain of the VP16 protein from herpes simplex virus, referred to as VP64. Although many applications are well-suited for the targeted activation of a single gene, genetic reprogramming requires the coordinated regulation of many nodes of natural gene networks as is typically performed by naturally occurring reprogramming factors. Thus we sought to combine principles from each of these approaches by attaching potent transcriptional activation domains to a natural reprogramming factor to increase the efficiency and/or rate of cell fate conversion. In this study, we evaluated the effects of fusing potent activation domains to the transcription factor MyoD, the master regulator of the skeletal myoblast lineage. In certain non-myogenic lineages, MyoD overexpression causes upregulation of the myogenic gene network and conversion to a myoblast phenotype including cell fusion into multinucleated myotubes. Compared to wild-type MyoD, the VP64-MyoD fusion protein induced greater overall reprogramming of global gene expression. This simple approach for increasing the potency of natural reprogramming factors circumvents the need for screening engineered proteins and leads to a more robust cellular reprogramming compared to treatment with the wild type transcription factor. Human dermal fibroblasts were transduced with a single tet inducible lentivirus that expresses either WT-MyoD or VP64-MyoD in response to treatment with doxycycline. Untreated human dermal fibroblast served as the negative control. Gene expression was measured using mRNA-seq, and differential expression was calculated using DESeq. All experiments were performed in biological duplicates.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggests that Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) represent a new class of regulators of stem cells. However, the roles of LncRNAs in stem cell maintenance and myogenesis remain largely unexamined. For this study, hundreds of novel intergenic LncRNAs were identified that are expressed in myoblasts and regulated during differentiation. One of these LncRNAs, termed LncMyoD, is encoded next to the Myod gene and is directly activated by MyoD during myoblast differentiation. Knockdown of LncMyoD strongly inhibits terminal muscle differentiation largely due to a failure to exit the cell cycle. LncMyoD directly binds to IGF2-mRNA-binding-protein 2 (IMP2) and negatively regulates IMP2-mediated translation of proliferation genes such as N-Ras and c-Myc. While the RNA sequence of LncMyoD is not well-conserved between human and mouse, its locus, gene structure and function is preserved. The MyoD-LncMyoD-IMP2 pathway elucidates a mechanism as to how MyoD blocks proliferation to create a permissive state for differentiation. In order to perform an unbiased search for downstream signaling pathways perturbed by LncMyodD downregulation, microarrays were performed on myoblasts treated with control vs LncMyoD shRNAs. Total RNA was extracted using the TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen) and purified with Qiagen RNeasy separation columns (Qiagen) from myoblasts treated with control vs. LncMyoD shRNA. First-strand cDNA was synthesized and hybridized to GeneChip Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (Affymetrix).
