Expression data from regenerating mouse TA muscle

ABSTRACT: Mutations in fukutin-related protein (FKRP) gene are characterized with a lack of functionally glycosylated α-dystroglycan (F-α-DG). Surprisingly a small number of muscle fibers express strong F-α-DG. Here we investigate restoration of F-α-DG in FKRP mutant muscle and showed that the restoration of glycosylation is associated with muscle regeneration and dependent of the expression of both LARGE and partially functional FKRP. F-α-DG in regenerating fibers reaches normal levels and lasts for more than 4 weeks, however, no up-regulation of the LARGE and FKRP is detected during the regeneration process. These results suggest that FKRP P448L mutation clinically associated with severe CMD retains at least partial functions. Identification of factor(s) other than LARGE and FKRP could create new approaches for restoration of F-α-DG in mature muscle fibers with defects in FKRP function. We employed microarrays to detail changes in gene expression associated with muscle regeneration in wild-type and FKRP mutant skeletal muscle, and have identified a group of genes with altered expression between these mice during this regeneration process.

Defective autophagy and increased apoptosis contribute toward the pathogenesis of FKRP-associated muscular dystrophies

Project description:Fukutin-related protein (FKRP) is a glycosyltransferase involved in glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan (a-DG). Mutations in FKRP are associated with muscular dystrophies (MD) ranging from limb-girdle LGMDR9 to Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS), a severe type of congenital MD. Although hypoglycosylation of a-DG is the main hallmark of this group of diseases, a full understanding of the underlying pathophysiology is still missing. Here, we investigated molecular mechanisms impaired by FKRP mutations in pluripotent stem (PS) cell-derived myotubes. FKRP deficient myotubes show transcriptome alterations in genes involved in extracellular matrix receptor interactions, calcium signaling, PI3K-Akt pathway, and lysosomal function. Accordingly, using a panel of patient-specific LGMDR9 and WWS induced PS cell-derived myotubes, we found a significant reduction in the autophagy-lysosome pathway for both disease phenotypes. Additionally, we show that WWS myotubes display decreased ERK1/2 activity and increased apoptosis, which were restored in gene edited myotubes. Our results suggest the autophagy-lysosome pathway and apoptosis may contribute to the FKRP-associated MD pathogenesis.

Impact of mannosylation on structure and functionality of ER and Golgi

Project description:Many proteins undergo glycosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi apparatus. Altered glycosylation can manifest in serious, sometimes fatal malfunctions. We recently showed that mutations in the cytoplasmic protein GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase A (GMPPA) cause a syndrome characterized by alacrima, achalasia, mental retardation and myopathic alterations. GMPPA acts as feedback inhibitor of GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase B (GMPPB), which provides GDP-mannose as a substrate for protein glycosylation. Loss of GMPPA enhances incorporation of mannose into glycochains of various proteins, including α-dystroglycan (α-DG), a protein that links the extracellular matrix with the cytoskeleton. Here, we show that loss of GMPPA affects the functionality of the Golgi apparatus using different approaches. First, we show a fragmentation of the Golgi apparatus in skeletal muscle fibers and in neurons of GMPPA KO mice. A major reorganization is also evident by mass spectrometry of KO tissues with a regulation of several ER- and Golgi-resident proteins. We further show that loss of GMPPA increases the retention of α-DG in the ER. Notably, mannose supplementation can mimic changes in ER and Golgi structure and function in WT cells. In summary, our data underline the importance of a balanced mannose homeostasis for structure and function of the secretory pathway.

Gmppa defects result in a treatable syndromic myopathy with α-Dystroglycan hyperglycosylation

Project description:Mutations in GDP-mannose-pyrophosphorylase-A (Gmppa) are associated with a syndromic disorder with deficits such as muscular hypotonia and weakness, achalasia, alacrima, and mental retardation (AAMR-syndrome). Gmppa is catalytically inactive, while its homolog Gmppb converts GTP and mannose-1-phosphate into GDP-mannose, which is a substrate for protein glycosylation. Suggesting that Gmppa is an allosteric inhibitor of Gmppb, Gmppa and Gmppb interact and disruption of Gmppa in mice increases GDP-mannose tissue levels. KO mice develop a myopathic disorder characterized by hyperglycosylation of the sarcolemma-associated protein α-Dystroglycan (α-Dg), while the overall abundance of α-Dg is reduced. This reduction is also observed in skeletal muscle biopsies of AAMR patients and in myoblasts upon knockdown of Gmppa. The knockdown does not impair myoblast differentiation but compromises myotube maintenance. Dietary mannose depletion prevents α-Dg hyperglycosylation and the deterioration of motor functions in mice. Thus our data suggest that the disorder is at least in part preventable.

Identify changes in gene expression during overexpression of the glycosyltransferase LARGE

Project description:alpha-dystroglycan is a component of the dystrophin associated glycoprotein complex that binds components of the extracellular matrix (including laminin, perlecan and neurexin) via its carbohydrate groups. Recently, a group of muscular dystrophies have been identified due to the aberrant glycosylation of this molecule (dystroglycanopathies). The overexpression of the glycosyltransferase LARGE in several cell lines results in alpha-dystroglycan hyperglycosylation and enhanced ligand binding. The glycan structures induced by LARGE overexpression are unknown.

CHO O-Mannosylation independent of POMT1/2

Project description:Protein O-mannosylation is found in yeast and metazoans and a family of conserved orthologous polypeptide O-mannosyltransferases is believed to initiate this important posttranslational modification. We recently discovered that the large families of cadherins and protocadherins carry highly conserved O-Man glycans in specific EC domains, and it was suggested that the function of E-Cadherin was dependent on the O-Man glycans. Deficiencies in the two human polypeptide O-mannosyltransferases, POMT1 and T2, underlie a subgroup of congenital muscular dystrophies (CMD) designated α-dystroglycanopathies, because deficient O-Man glycans on -dystroglycan impair laminin interaction with -dystroglycan and the dystrophin complex. In order to explore the functions of O-Man glycans on cadherins and protocadherins we used a combinatorial gene editing strategy in multiple cell lines to evaluate to the role of the two POMTs initiation O-Man glycosylation and the major enzyme elongating O-Man glycans, the POMGNT1 2GlcNAc-transferase. Surprisingly, we discovered that O-Man glycans on cadherins and protocadherins do not appear to require POMT1 and T2 and moreover that the O-Man glycans on these proteins are not elongated in contrast to those on dystroglycan.

Retinal proteomics of a mouse model of dystroglycanopathies shows changes in different photoreceptor regions

Project description:Mutations in the POMT1 gene, encoding a protein O-mannosyltransferase essential for alpha-dystroglycan (α-DG) glycosylation, are frequently observed in a group of rare congenital muscular dystrophies, collectively known as dystroglycanopathies. However, it is hitherto unclear whether the effects seen in affected patients can be fully ascribed to α-DG hypoglycosylation. To study this, we here used comparative mass spectrometry-based proteomics and immunofluorescence microscopy, in order to investigate the changes in retina of mice in which Pomt1 is specifically knocked out in photoreceptor cells. Our results demonstrate significant proteomic changes and associated structural alteration in photoreceptor cells of Pomt1 cKO mice. In addition to effects related to impaired α-DG O-mannosylation, we observed morphological impairments in the outer segment that are associated with dysregulation of a relatively understudied POMT1 substrate (KIAA1549), BBSome proteins and retinal stress markers. In conclusion, our study provides new hypotheses to explain the phenotypic changes that are observed in the retina of patients with dystroglycanopathies.

Role of stromal fibroblasts and myofibroblasts in corneal wound healing

Project description:Transparent avascular cornea providing two third refraction to the eye. Restoration of corneal transparency and clear vision in a traumatic eye involves the action of many cytokines and signaling pathways. Out of several factors, stromal keratocytes/fibroblasts (CSFs) play a central role in corneal repair and wound healing. Post trauma, keratocytes/fibroblasts produce myofibroblasts to facilitate wound repair by synthesizing and secreting large extracellular matrix components, collagens, and alpha-smooth muscle actin stress fibers. This study aimed to perform RNASeq data analysis and pathway enrichments to gain a better understanding of gene regulation in corneal fibroblasts and myofibroblasts in corneal wound repair.

Single-cell chromatin accessibility profiling reveals a self-renewing muscle satellite cell state

Project description:Successful skeletal muscle regeneration is primarily mediated by muscle stem cells or satellite cells which express Pax7. In homeostasis, these satellite cells exist in a ‘genuine quiescent’ state, although some satellite cells may also be primed. After an acute injury, satellite cells, enabled by several other niche cells in the muscle tissue, undergo a series of molecular and cellular changes such as activation, proliferation, and differentiation. These processes culminate in the generation of nascent muscle fibers or the restoration of worn-out muscle fibers, leading to the restoration of muscle function. To prevent the depletion of the quiescent satellite cell pool, some satellite cells must resist the ambient differentiation signals and undergo the self-renewal process. While the differentiation process has been well characterized, little is known about the mechanism of satellite cell self-renewal. Furthermore, the molecular identity of self-renewing satellite cells remains unknown. To fill this gap, we utilize single nuclei ATACseq with high temporal resolution to characterize the temporal dynamics of chromatin accessibility in satellite cells and other muscle niche cells during muscle regeneration. This enables us to identify for the first time the self-renewing trajectory undertaken by satellite cells for their long-term repopulation. We also validated these findings using single-cell RNAseq and other protein-level assays. We also utilize gene perturbation to show that SMAD4, a co-SMAD regulating the TGF-beta pathway regulates the cfate choice of self-renewal versus differentiation.

Transcription profiling of skeletal muscle from wild type and PGC-1 beta transgenic mice

Project description:Skeletal muscle must perform a wide range of kinds of work, and different fiber types have evolved to accommodate these different tasks. The attributes of fibers are determined in large part by the coordinated regulation of oxidative capacity, as reflected by mitochondrial content, and the specific makeup of myofibrillar proteins. Adult muscle fibers contain four myosin heavy chain isotypes: I, IIa, IIx and IIb. Type I and IIa fibers have slower twitches and are rich in mitochondria, while type IIb fibers are fast-twitch and predominantly glycolytic. The intermediate IIx fibers are less well understood. Previous work had shown that the transcriptional coactivator PGC-1 alpha could drive the formation of type I and IIa muscle fibers. We show here that mice with transgenic expression of PGC-1 beta in skeletal muscle results in marked induction of IIx fibers. The fibers in transgenic mice are rich in mitochondria and are highly oxidative. As a result, PGC-1 beta transgenic animals can perform oxidative activity for longer and at higher work loads than wild type animals. In cell culture, PGC-1 beta coactivates the MEF2 family of transcription factors to stimulate the MHC IIx promoter. Together, these data indicate that PGC-1 beta is sufficient to drive the formation in vivo of highly oxidative fibers with type IIx characteristics.
