Single-cell analysis of bovine muscle-derived cell types for cultured meat production

ABSTRACT: Cultured' or 'cultivated' meat technologies leverage the proliferation and differentiation of animal-derived stem cells ex vivo to produce edible tissues for human consumption in a sustainable fashion. However, skeletal muscle is a dynamic and highly complex tissue, involving the interplay of numerous mono- and multinucleated cell types, including muscle fibres, satellite cells (SCs) and fibro-adipogenic progenitors (FAPs), and accurate recreation of the entire tissue thus requires the identification, purification, proliferation and characterisation of a broad range of cell types. Here, we use a single-cell RNA sequencing approach to characterise transcriptional heterogeneity within bovine muscle and derived in vitro cultures over time. Using this data, we identify numerous distinct cell types, and develop robust protocols for the easy purification and proliferation of several of these populations. We note overgrowth of undesirable cell types within heterogeneous proliferative cultures as a barrier to efficient cultured meat production, and use transcriptomics to identify conditions that favour the growth of SCs in the context of serum-free medium. Combining RNA velocities computed in silico with functional data, we characterise dynamic subpopulations and transitions between active, quiescent and committed substates of SCs, and demonstrate methods for modulation of these states during long-term proliferative cultures. This work represents an important resource for advancing our knowledge of bovine skeletal muscle biology, and its application in the development of cultured meat technologies.

Muscle-derived fibro-adipogenic progenitor cells for production of cultured bovine adipose tissue

Project description:Cultured meat is an emergent technology with the potential for significant environmental and animal welfare benefits. Accurate mimicry of traditional meat requires fat tissue; a key contributor to both the flavour and texture of meat. Here, we show that fibro-adipogenic progenitor cells (FAPs) are present in bovine muscle, and are transcriptionally and immunophenotypically distinct from satellite cells. These two cell types can be purified from a single muscle sample using a simple fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) strategy. FAPs demonstrate high levels of adipogenic potential, as measured by gene expression changes and lipid accumulation, and can be proliferated for a large number of population doublings, demonstrating their suitability for a scalable cultured meat production process. Crucially, FAPs reach a mature level of adipogenic differentiation in three-dimensional, edible hydrogels. The resultant tissue accurately mimics traditional beef fat in terms of lipid profile and taste, and FAPs thus represent a promising candidate cell type for the production of cultured fat.

Optimisation of cell fate decisions for cultured muscle differentiation

Project description:Production of cultured meat requires defined medium formulations for the robust differentiation of myogenic cells into mature skeletal muscle fibres in vitro. Whilst such formulations can drive myogenic differentiation to an extent similar to serum-starvation based protocols, these cultures are visually heterogeneous in nature, with a significant proportion of cells not participating in myofusion, limiting the maturation of the muscle. Here, we use RNA sequencing to characterise this heterogeneity at single-nucleus resolution, identifying distinct cellular subpopulations, including proliferative cells that fail to exit the cell cycle, and 'reserve cells' that do not commit to myogenic differentiation. By targeting the ERK, RXR and NOTCH pathways, we show that cell cycle exit can be promoted whilst simultaneously abrogating reserve cell formation. Under these improved culture conditions, fusion indices close to 100% can be robustly obtained in 2D culture. We further show that this translates to higher levels of myotube formation and muscle protein accumulation in animal-free bioartificial muscle (BAM) constructs, providing proof of principle for the generation of highly differentiated cultured muscle with excellent mimicry to traditional meat.

Oilseed protein isolates as albumin alternatives for muscle cell culture media

Project description:The development of cost-effective serum-free media is essential for the development of cell-cultured meat technologies. While some effective media have been developed for relevant cells (e.g., bovine muscle stem cells), these rely on costly recombinant albumin which is too expensive for a scalable system. In this study, we explored bulk protein isolates from rapeseed, cottonseed, and soybean as alternatives to recombinant albumin, and show that rapeseed protein isolate (RPI) is effective in replacing albumin for the serum-free culture of bovine muscle stem cells. We additionally performed proteomic characterization of the three oilseed protein isolates used in the study to compare how proteomic differences might be associated with functional differences between these proteins.

3 days injured in vivo ASCs proteome

Project description:Muscle Stem Cells or satellite cells (SCs) are required for muscle regeneration. In resting muscles, SCs are kept in quiescence. After injury, SCs undergo rapid activation, proliferation and differentiation to repair damaged muscles. The transcriptome alteration during SC activation is well characterized. While transcriptome is not exactly represent proteome because of post-transcriptional regulations such as miRNA induced gene silencing. However, little is known about SC proteome. We obtained in vivo activated SCs (ASCs) from 3 days post injured muscles for high resolution mass spectrometry Bruker timsTOF Pro. Compared with QSC proteome,, we identified the pathways that are differentially expressed between them.

Mouse Muscle Stem Cell Proteome during Activation and CPEB1 Dependent Proteome in Mouse Muscle Stem Cell

Project description:Muscle Stem Cells or satellite cells (SCs) are required for muscle regeneration. In resting muscles, SCs are kept in quiescence. After injury, SCs undergo rapid activation, proliferation and differentiation to repair damaged muscles. The transcriptome alteration during SC activation is well characterized. While transcriptome is not exactly represent proteome because of post-transcriptional regulations such as miRNA induced gene silencing. However, little is known about SC proteome. We obtained quisecent SCs (QSCs) and freshly isolated SCs (fiSCs, early activated SCs) and activated SCs (ASCs) for high resolution mass spectrometry Bruker timsTOF Pro. Thus, we uncovered the QSC proteome. By comparison of QSC proteome to fiuSCs proteome or ASCs proteome, we identified the pathways that are differentially expressed between them. Forthermore, we characterized a translational regulator CPEB1 reprogrammed translation landscape for SC activation.

Identification of novel markers of beef sensory quality and muscle growth potential

Project description:The transcriptome of bovine Longissimus thoracis muscles from 15- and 19-month-old Charolais young bulls were analyzed in order to identify genes whose expression level was associated to beef quality scores, in particular to tenderness, juiciness and flavor, and to muscle growth potential. The expression of over 5000 genes was compared between high and low meat quality samples according to the three sensory traits, taken individually, and between animals with either a high or a low muscle growth potential. Keywords: meat sensory quality, growth potential

Long noncoding RNA SAM promotes myoblast proliferation through stabilizing Sugt1 and facilitating kinetochore assembly

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are family of gene regulators but the functional study of lncRNAs in skeletal muscle satellite cells (SCs) remains at the infancy stage. Here we identify SAM (Sugt1 associated muscle) lncRNA (also known as Snhg15, (small nucleolar RNA host gene 15) that is enriched in the proliferating myoblast cells and down-regulated as the cells progressed to differentiation. Gain- or loss- of function of SAM in muscle SCs alters myogenic proliferation and differentiation. Global deletion of SAM based on the KO-first strategy has no overt effect on mice but impairs adult muscle regeneration following acute damage; the loss also exacerbates the chronic injury induced dystrophic phenotype in the mdx mouse model. Consistently, inducible deletion of SAM in adult SCs leads to deficiency in acute injury-induced muscle regeneration. Further examination of SCs revealed that SAM loss results in cell autonomous defect in proliferative expansion of myoblasts. Mechanistically, we find SAM interacts and stabilizes Sugt1 (suppressor of G2 allele of SKP1) protein, a co-chaperon protein key to kinetochore assembly during cell division. Loss of SAM or Sugt1 both cause disruptive kinetochore assembly and microtubule attachment in mitotic cells due to mis-localization of key components Dsn1 and Hec1 proteins. Altogether, our findings identify SAM as a regulator of SC proliferation through facilitating Sugt1 mediated kinetochore assembly during cell division.

Proteomics and transcriptomics of peripheral nerve tissue and cells unravel new aspects of the human Schwann cell repair phenotype

Project description:The remarkable feature of Schwann cells (SCs) to transform into a repair phenotype turned the spotlight on this powerful cell type. SCs provide the regenerative environment for axonal re-growth after peripheral nerve injury (PNI) and play a vital role in differentiation of neuroblastic tumors into a benign subtype of neuroblastoma, a tumor originating from neural crest-derived neuroblasts. Hence, understanding their mode-of-action is of utmost interest for new approaches in regenerative medicine, but also for neuroblastoma therapy. However, literature on human SCs is scarce and it is unknown to which extent human SC cultures reflect the SC repair phenotype developing after PNI in patients. We performed high-resolution proteome profiling and RNA-sequencing on highly enriched human SC and fibroblast cultures, control and ex vivo degenerated nerve explants to identify novel molecules and functional processes active in repair SCs. In fact, we found cultured SCs and degenerated nerves to share a similar repair SC-associated expression signature, including the upregulation of JUN, as well as two prominent functions, i.e., myelin debris clearance and antigen presentation via MHCII. In addition to myelin degradation, cultured SCs were capable of actively taking up cell-extrinsic components in functional phagocytosis and co-cultivation assays. Moreover, in cultured SCs and degenerated nerve tissue MHCII was upregulated at the cellular level along with high expression of chemoattractants and co-inhibitory rather than -stimulatory molecules. These results demonstrate human SC cultures to execute an inherent program of nerve repair and support two novel repair SC functions, debris clearance via phagocytosis-related mechanisms and type II immune-regulation.

Expression data from the longuissimus dorsi muscle of Qinchuan cattle, Qinghai yak and Guangxi buffalo at 36 months

Project description:Sex condition has been demonstrated to alter meat quality and sex is a major factor that affects the fatty acid composition of lipids of carcass dissectible or intramuscular depot fats. But the possible genetic molecular mechanism of gender causing meat quality differences is not well defined. Qinchuan cattle, Qinghai yak and Guangxi buffalo are three typical indigenous species of cattle in China. Obivious differences of meat quality exist among the three species of cattle. Few studies have been conducted to elucidate the muscle tissue expression of genes involved in pathways and mechanisms leading to meat quality differences beyond the phenotype properties of beef. Bovine Genome Arrays were used to construct muscle expression profiles of the longuissimus dorsi from Qinchuan cattle at 36 months and screen differentially expressed genes in the longuissimus dorsi muscle tissues among different genders of Qinchuan cattle, between Qinchuan cattle and Qinghai yak, and between Qinchuan cattle and Guangxi buffalo.
