Genome-wide DNA methylation and mRNA and the microRNA transcriptome profiling between oxidative and glycolytic skeletal muscles [miRNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: The physiological, biochemical and functional difference of oxidative and glycolytic muscles play important roles in human metabolic health as well as in meat quality of animal. To explore this aspect, we firstly provided a genome-wide landscape of DNA methylomes and their relationship with mRNA and miRNA transcriptome for PMM (psoas major muscle; oxidative) and LDM (longissimus dorsi muscle; glycotic) in this study. We observed hypomethylation of subtelomeric regions and high mitochondria content contributed to fast replicative senescence in PMM. The DMRs in promoter (478) and gene bodies (5718) were main enriched in GTPase regulator activity and signaling cascade mediated pathway. Integration analysis revealed methylation status within gene promoter (or gene body) and miRNA promoter have significant negative correlation with mRNA and miRNA expression, respectively. Which included numerous genes were closely related to distinct phenotypic traits between LDM and PMM. For instance, the hypermethylation and down-expression of HK-2 and PFKFB4 decreased the glycolytic potential in PMM. In addition, we validated the promoter hypomethylation and up-expression of miR-378 results in silencing the target gene expression and inducing promoted capillaries biosynthesis in PMM. Together, these results provide a thorough understanding of muscle metabolism and development from an genomic and epigenetic perspective.

Project description:Melatonin has been reported to play crucial roles in regulating meat quality, improving reproductive properties and maintaining intestinal health in animal production, but whether it regulates skeletal muscle development in weaned piglet is rarely studied. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of melatonin on growth performance, skeletal muscle development and lipid metabolism in animals by intragastric administration of melatonin solution. Twelve 28-day-old DLY (Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire) weaned piglets with similar body weight were randomly divided into two groups: control group and melatonin group. The results showed that melatonin supplementation for 23 days had no effect on growth performance, but significantly reduced serum glucose content (P<0.05). Remarkably, melatonin increased longissimus dorsi muscle (LDM) weight, eye muscle area and decreased the liver weight in weaned piglets (P<0.05). In addition, the cross-sectional area of muscle fibers was increased (P<0.05), while triglyceride (TG) levels were decreased in LDM and psoas major muscle (PMM) by melatonin treatment (P<0.05). Transcriptome sequencing showed melatonin induced the expression of genes related to skeletal muscle hypertrophy and fatty acid oxidation. Enrichment analysis indicated that melatonin regulated cholesterol metabolism, protein digestion and absorption and mitophagy signaling pathways in muscle. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) also confirmed the effects of melatonin on skeletal muscle development and mitochondrial structure and function. Moreover, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) analysis revealed that melatonin supplementation elevated the gene expression of cell differentiation and muscle fiber development, including paired box 7 (PAX7), myogenin (MYOG), myosin heavy chain (MYHC) ⅡA and MYHC ⅡB (P<0.05), which was accompanied by increased insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF1) and insulin like growth factor binding protein 5 (IGFBP5) expression in LDM (P<0.05). Additionally, melatonin regulated lipid metabolism and activated mitochondrial function in muscle by increasing the mRNA abundance of cytochrome c oxidase subunit 6A (COX6A), COX5B and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 (CPT2) and decreasing the mRNA expression of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPARG), Acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) (P<0.05). Together, our results suggest that melatonin could promote skeletal muscle growth and muscle fiber hypertrophy, improve mitochondrial function and decrease fat deposition in muscle.
