Optimisation of cell fate decisions for cultured muscle differentiation

ABSTRACT: 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.

A serum-free media formulation for cultured meat production supports bovine satellite cell differentiation in the absence of serum starvation [Timecourse]

Project description:Production of cultured meat requires the robust differentiation of satellite cells into mature muscle fibers without the use of animal-derived components. Current protocols induce myogenic differentiation in vitro through serum starvation, an abrupt reduction in serum concentration. Here, we used RNA sequencing to investigate the transcriptomic remodelling of bovine satellite cells during myogenic differentiation induced by serum starvation. We characterized canonical myogenic gene expression, and identified surface receptors upregulated during the early phase of differentiation. Supplementation of ligands to these receptors enabled the formulation of a chemically defined media that induced differentiation in the absence of serum starvation and/or transgene expression. Serum-free myogenic differentiation was of similar extent to that induced by serum starvation, as evaluated by transcriptome analysis, protein expression and the presence of a functional contractile apparatus. Moreover, the serum-free differentiation media supported the fabrication of mature three-dimensional bioartificial muscle constructs, demonstrating its suitability for cultured beef production.

RNA seq dataset of parental and reserve cells (FRCs Cycle 1 and SRCs Cycle 3)

Project description:Loss of regenerative capacity during ex vivo expansion of muscle stem cells hampers the development of cell-based therapies for skeletal muscle disorders. Here, we developed a method to isolate regenerative reserve cell fractions from expanded murine primary cultures using differential adhesion properties and the induction of subsequent cycles of proliferation and differentiation. Fast-adhering reserve cells (FRCs) were enriched for cells expressing myogenin and contributed efficiently to muscle regeneration following transplantation in immunodeficient hosts. Slow adhering reserve cells (SRCs) generated higher number of PAX7+ cells under differentiating conditions and predominantly regenerated muscle after a secondary injury, suggesting engraftment as muscle stem cells. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that FRCs were enriched for markers of myogenic differentiation, while SRCs were characterized by a distinctive set of cell-adhesion genes. Overall, reserve cells provide a valuable source for the study and identification of molecular determinants of regeneration using ex vivo-expanded muscle cells.

Cry2 is critical for circadian regulation of myogenic differentiation by Bclaf1-mediated mRNA stabilization of cyclin D1 and Tmem176b

Project description:Circadian rhythms regulate cell proliferation and differentiation; however, little is known about their roles in myogenic differentiation. Our synchronized differentiation studies demonstrate that myoblast proliferation and subsequent myotube formation by cell fusion occur in circadian manners. We found that one of the core regulators of circadian rhythms Cry2, but not Cry1, is critical for the circadian patterns of these two critical steps in myogenic differentiation. This is achieved through the specific interaction between Cry2 and Bclaf1, which stabilizes mRNAs encoding cyclin D1, a G1/S phase transition regulator, and Tmem176b, a transmembrane regulator for myogenic cell fusion. Myoblasts lacking Cry2 display premature cell cycle exit and form short myotubes due to inefficient cell fusion. Consistently, muscle regeneration is impaired in Cry2-/- mice. Bclaf1 knockdown recapitulated the phenotypes of Cry2 knockdown: early cell cycle exit and inefficient cell fusion. This study uncovers a post-transcriptional regulation of myogenic differentiation by circadian rhythms.

A robust and practical myogenic cell system to explore cellular and genomic features of muscle differentiation [RNA-Seq]

Project description:The ability to recapitulate muscle differentiation in vitro has proven invaluable to investigate mechanisms of myogenesis, muscle cell function and muscle diseases. However, obtaining myoblasts from patients with neuromuscular diseases poses ethical and procedural challenges which limit investigations of molecular mechanisms of muscle pathophysiology. Alternative myogenic models have been developed, such as the derivation of myogenic cells from skin fibroblasts through activation of an endogenous myogenic program triggered by exogenous expression of murine Myod. In the context of this RNA-seq dataset, we compare the transcriptome of myo-converted human fibroblasts and isogenic in vitro differentiated myoblasts. We show that myogenic induction of fibroblasts elicits genome-wide transcriptomic changes indicative of strong myogenic commitment and differentiation, including marked upregulation of genes implicated in cell cycle exit and in several myogenic pathways. Yet, we find that myotubes are further along myogenic commitment than myo-converted fibroblasts under the conditions tested. Extension of myo-conversion to 7 days does not significantly enhance myogenic commitment, from a gene expression standpoint. This suggests that myo-converted fibroblasts and myotubes retain some cell type specificity of gene expression profiles. Although these myogenic cell types are not identical, our results nonetheless favor a view of myo-converted fibroblasts as a robust and practical model to investigate cellular and genomic properties of cells from patients with muscle pathologies.

RNA-seq profiling of rexinoid responsive gene expression during early myogenic differentiation

Project description:While skeletal myogenesis is tightly coordinated by myogenic regulatory factors including MyoD and myogenin, chromatin modifications have emerged as vital mechanisms of myogenic regulation. We have previously established that bexarotene, a clinically approved agonist of retinoid X receptor, promotes the specification and differentiation of skeletal muscle lineage. Here, we examine a genome-wide impact of rexinoids on myogenic differentiation through integral RNA-seq and ChIP-seq analyses. We found that bexarotene promotes myoblast differentiation through the coordination of exit from the cell cycle and the activation of muscle-related genes. We uncovered a new mechanism of rexinoid action which is mediated by the nuclear receptor and largely reconciled through a direct regulation of MyoD gene expression. In addition, we determined a rexinoid-responsive residue-specific histone acetylation at a distinct chromatin state associated to MyoD and myogenin. Thus, we provide novel molecular insights into the interplay between retinoid X receptor signaling and chromatin states pertinent to myogenic programs in early myoblast differentiation.

Extracellular vesicle-derived miRNAs improve stem cell-based therapeutic approaches in muscle wasting conditions.

Project description:Skeletal muscle holds an intrinsic capability of growth and regeneration both in physiological conditions and in case of injury. Chronic muscle illnesses, generally caused by genetic and acquired factors, lead to deconditioning of the skeletal muscle structure and function, and are associated with a significant loss in muscle mass. At the same time, progressive muscle wasting is a hallmark of aging. Given the paracrine properties of myogenic stem cells, extracellular vesicle-derived signals have been studied for their potential implication in both the pathogenesis of degenerative neuromuscular diseases and as a possible therapeutic target. In this study, we screened the content of extracellular vesicles from animal models of muscle hypertrophy and muscle wasting associated with chronic disease and aging. Analysis of the transcriptome, protein cargo and microRNAs (miRNAs) allowed us to identify a hypertrophic miRNA signature amenable for targeting muscle wasting, consisting of miR-1 and miR-208a. We tested this signature among others in vitro on mesoangioblasts (MABs), vessel-associated adult stem cells, and we observed an increase in the efficiency of myogenic differentiation. Furthermore, injections of miRNA-treated MABs in aged mice resulted in an improvement in skeletal muscle features, such as muscle weight, strength and cross-sectional area compared to controls. Overall, we provide evidence that the extracellular vesicle-derived miRNA signature we identified enhances the myogenic potential of myogenic stem cells.

Discrete subsets of myogenic and mesenchymal precursors give rise to soft tissue sarcomas of distinct lineage differentiation

Project description:This work examines sarcoma formation within discrete subsets of KRAS(G12V)-expressing p16p19null myogenic and mesenchymal cells found normally in skeletal muscle. We show that prospectively isolated skeletal muscle precursor cells (SMPs) within the satellite cell pool can serve as cancer cells-of-origin for mouse rhabdomyosarcomas (soft tissue sarcomas with features of myogenic differentiation). Alternatively, non-myogenic progenitors (ScaPCs) induce sarcomas lacking myogenic differentiation markers. We used Affymetrix whole mouse genome 430 2.0 microarrays to gain deeper insights into the molecular underpinnings of the three types of KRAS; p16p19null mouse soft-tissue sarcomas (originating from SMPs, ScaPCs and CD45-MAC1-TER119-Sca1-CXCR4- cells). Four replicates of each type.
