Project description:Genome-wide gene expression analysis of MyoD-infected DMD-specific iPSCs (GM05112-M5.1) on days 0 (untreated), day 3 and day 8 post Dox treatment, human primary myoblasts (undifferentiated and as differentiated myotubes), and undifferentiated iPSCs from healthy donors (iPSCs-1 and iPSCs-2). DMD-specific iPSCs were infected with lentivirus expressing MyoD under the control of Tet-inducible promoter and another lentivirus expressing the transactivator. To initiate myogenic differentiation, iPSCs were treated with 1µg/ml Dox. RNA was isolated 0, 3 and 8 days later and gene expression analysis was performed.

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked monogenic disease caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene (DMD) and characterized by progressive muscle weakness leading to loss of ambulation and significantly decreased life expectancy. Since the current standard of care for Duchenne muscular dystrophy is to merely treat symptoms, there is a dire need for novel treatment modalities that can correct the underlying genetic mutations. While several gene replacement therapies are being explored in clinical trials, one emerging approach that can directly correct mutations in genomic DNA is base editing. We have recently developed CRISPR-SKIP, a base editing strategy to induce permanent exon skipping by introducing C>T or A>G mutations at splice acceptors in genomic DNA, which can be utilized therapeutically to recover dystrophin expression when a genomic deletion leads to an out-of-frame DMD transcript. We now demonstrate that CRISPR-SKIP can be adapted to correct some forms of Duchenne muscular dystrophy by disrupting the splice acceptor in human DMD exon 45 with high efficiency, which enables open reading frame recovery and restoration of dystrophin expression. We also demonstrate that AAV-delivered split-intein base editors edit the splice acceptor of DMD exon 45 in cultured human cells and in vivo, highlighting the therapeutic potential of this strategy.

Project description:We sought to investigate whether the reduced differentiation and fusion competence in DMD-R3381X cultures was due to aberrant myogenic gene expression. We performed transcriptome sequencing and analysis of DMD-R3381X and CORR-R3381X myogenic cultures during secondary differentiation at 0, 24 and 120 hours timepoints.

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal X-linked disease caused by mutations in the dystrophin (DMD) gene, leading to the complete absence of DMD and progressive degeneration of skeletal and heart muscles. Expression of an internally shortened dystrophin in DMD subjects (DMDΔ52) can be achieved by skipping DMD exon 51 to reframe the transcript. To predict the best possible outcome of this therapeutic strategy, we generated transgenic pigs lacking DMD exon 51 and 52, additionally representing a new model for Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). To inspect the proteome alterations caused by the different dystrophin mutations in an unbiased and comprehensive manner, we performed a label-free liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis (LC-MS/MS) of myocardial and skeletal muscle samples from wild-type (WT), DMDΔ52 and DMDΔ51-52 pigs.

Project description:Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in the X-linked dystrophin (DMD) gene. The absence of dystrophin protein leads to progressive muscle weakness and wasting, disability and death. To establish a tailored large animal model of DMD, we deleted DMD exon 52 in male pig cells by gene targeting and generated offspring by nuclear transfer. DMD pigs exhibit absence of dystrophin in skeletal muscles, increased serum creatine kinase levels, progressive dystrophic changes of skeletal muscles, impaired mobility, muscle weakness, and a maximum life span of 3 months due to respiratory impairment. To address the accelerated development of muscular dystrophy in DMD pigs as compared to human patients, we performed a genome-wide transcriptome study of M. biceps femoris samples from 2-day-old and 3-month-old DMD and age-matched wild-type pigs. The transcriptome changes in 3-month-old DMD pigs were in good accordance with the findings of gene expression profiles in human DMD, reflecting the processes of degeneration, regeneration, inflammation, fibrosis, and impaired metabolic activity. The transcriptome profile of 2-day-old DMD pigs pointed towards increased protein and DNA catabolism, reduced extracellular matrix formation and cell proliferation and showed similarities with transcriptome changes induced by exercise injury in muscle. Our transcriptome studies provide new insights into congenital changes associated with dystrophin deficiency and secondary complications arising during postnatal development. Thus the DMD pig is a useful model to determine the hierarchy of physiological derangements in dystrophin-deficient muscle. 13 samples, two conditions, two age-groups, 3-4 biological replicates

Project description:Absence of the dystrophin gene in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) results in the degeneration of skeletal and cardiac muscles. Owing to advances in respiratory medicine, cardiomyopathy has become a significant aspect of the disease. While CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing technology holds great potential as a novel therapeutic avenue for DMD, little is known about the efficacy of correction of DMD using the CRISPR/Cas9 system in mitigating the cardiomyopathy phenotype in DMD. To define the effects of CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing on structural, functional and transcriptional dysregulation in DMD-associated cardiomyopathy. We generated induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from a patient with a deletion of exon 44 of the DMD gene (ΔEx44) and his healthy brother. Here, we targeted exon 45 of the DMD gene by CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing to generate corrected DMD (cDMD) iPSC lines, wherein the DMD open reading frame was restored via reframing (RF) or exon skipping (ES). While DMD cardiomyocytes (CMs) demonstrated morphologic, structural and functional deficits compared to control CMs, CMs from both cDMD lines were similar to control CMs. Bulk RNA-sequencing of DMD CMs showed transcriptional dysregulation consistent with dilated cardiomyopathy, which was mitigated in cDMD CMs. We then corrected DMD CMs by adenoviral delivery of Cas9/gRNA and showed that postnatal correction of DMD CMs reduces their arrhythmogenic potential. Single-nucleus RNA-sequencing of hearts showed reduced transcriptional dysregulation in CMs and fibroblasts in corrected mice compared with DMD mice, consistent with reduced histopathologic changes.We show that CRISPR/Cas9-mediated correction of DMD ΔEx44 mitigates structural, functional and transcriptional dysregulation consistent with dilated cardiomyopathy irrespective of how the protein reading frame is restored. We show that these effects extend to postnatal editing in iPSC-CMs and mice. These findings provide key insights into the utility of genome editing as a novel therapeutic for DMD-associated cardiomyopathy.

Project description:gene expression data is from RNA extracted from muscle biopsy samples taken from boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) or pathologically normal controls (CTRL). Each muscle biospy was examined in detail histologically by Dr. Eric P. Hoffman at Children's National Medical Center to determine stage of disease. In addition, the absence or presence of dystrophin was determined via western blot analyses. We utilized Human U133 2.0 arrays to examine the transcriptome of each muscle, and then we compared differential gene expression between DMD patient muscles and CTRL muscules. We set the FDR p value for significance at 0.05 and at least a 1.5 fold difference in DMD/CTRL compared differential gene exrpression between DMD versus Control
