Genomic and proteomic profiling reveals reduced mitochondrial function and disruption of the neuromuscular junction driving rat sarcopenia

Project description:Molecular mechanisms underlying sarcopenia, the age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, remain unclear. To identify molecular changes that correlated best with sarcopenia and might contribute to its pathogenesis, we determined global gene expression profiles in muscles of rats aged 6, 12, 18, 21, 24, and 27 months. These rats exhibit sarcopenia beginning at 21 months. Correlation of the gene expression versus muscle mass or age changes, and functional annotation analysis identified gene signatures of sarcopenia distinct from gene signatures of aging. Specifically, mitochondrial energy metabolism (e.g., tricarboxylic acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation) pathway genes were the most downregulated and most significantly correlated with sarcopenia. Also, perturbed were genes/pathways associated with neuromuscular junction patency (providing molecular evidence of sarcopenia-related functional denervation and neuromuscular junction remodeling), protein degradation, and inflammation. Proteomic analysis of samples at 6, 18, and 27 months confirmed the depletion of mitochondrial energy metabolism proteins and neuromuscular junction proteins. Together, these findings suggest that therapeutic approaches that simultaneously stimulate mitochondrogenesis and reduce muscle proteolysis and inflammation have potential for treating sarcopenia.

The neuromuscular junction is a focal point of mTORC1 signaling in sarcopenia [NMJ data set].

Project description:Purpose: To investigate whether our signatures of mTORC1-driven sarcopenia originate from cells residing at the neuromuscular junction (NMJ), we followed laser-capture microdissection with RNA-seq from adult and sarcopenic tibialis anterior (TA) muscles. Methods: TA muscles were incubated in solution containing fluorescently-labeled bungarotoxin, which binds to post-synaptic AChRs and thereby marks NMJ regions. Approximately 300 synaptic regions (NMJ) and a comparable number of extra-synaptic (xNMJ) regions were collected from 30µM thick sections using laser-capture microdissection (LCM) and processed for RNA-seq. Results: As compared to xNMJ regions, NMJ regions were highly enriched for genes known to be specifically expressed at the NMJ. The analysis demonstrated that genes associated with sarcopenia are significantly enriched at the NMJ in young (10 months) and old (30 months) mice. Furthermore, the age-related reduction in expression of genes associated with extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling was particularly prominent in NMJ regions but not in xNMJ regions. Conclusions: Diminished expression of ECM genes at the NMJ may impact the stability of the NMJ and its ability to remodel following common age-related remodelling events such as muscle fiber degeneration/regeneration and motor unit loss.

Fibroadipogenic Progenitor Regulates Neuromuscular Junction by Secreting Novel Protein Granzyme E

Project description:Muscle fibroadipogenic progenitor (FAP) cells, which are muscular mesenchymal cells that originate from lateral plate mesoderm have been proposed to act as a critical regulator for adult muscle homeostasis1–7, including the maturation and proper functioning of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ)3, Prx-Bap1 paper. However, the mechanism and intercellular crosstalk by which FAPs regulate the stability and functionality of neuromuscular system remains unknown. Here we show that FAPs not only locally but also systemically regulate the neuromuscular system through the secretion of a serine-type endopeptidase Granzyme E which may imply the previously unidentified endocrine function of FAPs. Local transplantation of wild-type FAPs into the neuromuscular disease model (Prrx1Cre;Bap1f/f, hereafter, cKO) can readily prevent neuromuscular defects, including degeneration of the neuromuscular junction and loss of motor neurons. These effects are found not only in transplanted hindlimb muscles but also in the contralateral hindlimb and even forelimb muscles. Notably, subcutaneous administration of microparticles encapsulating FAP-conditioned media into cKO mice was sufficient to restore normal neuromuscular functions. By analyzing the transcriptomic and secretomic profiles of FAPs, we identified a novel protein, Granzyme E, which is specifically expressed in and secreted by FAPs, and which indispensably regulates the structure and function of NMJ and motor neuron survival. Our study has defined a unique mechanism of Granzyme E-dependent, systemic control of the neuromuscular system by FAPs, which would provide a comprehensive understanding on the neuromuscular systems and their crosstalk with non-neuronal cells. These findings may provide a therapeutic benefit to treat NMJ-related diseases.

The neuromuscular junction is a focal point of mTORC1 signaling in sarcopenia [TSCmKO data set].

Project description:Purpose: Sustained muscle fiber-specific mTORC1 activity, through deletion of the mTORC1 upstream inhibitor Tsc1, drives progressive muscle wasting and weakness reminiscent of sarcopenia. We aimed to characterise gene expression changes coinciding with the development of sarcopenia-like features in TSCmKO mice. Methods: Extensorum digitorum longus (EDL) muscles from 3- (weak phenotype) and 9-month-old (severe phenotype) TSCmKO and littermate control mice (Tsc1 floxed, HSA-Cre negative) treated with either vehicle or rapamycin (8 mg.kg.min-1) for 3 days were processed and sequenced. Results: The principal component analysis showed two major gene expression patterns. The first pattern represents an aging-like pattern with gene expression remaining stable between 3 and 9 months in wild type mice, but changing between 3 and 9 months in TSCmKO mice. The second pattern seems to represent early alterations in TSCmKO mice compared to WT, which subside between 3 and 9 months in TSCmKO. Importantly, when comparing changes in the gene expression in TSCmKO mice with natural aging gene expression profiles, there was a significant overrepresentation of commonly increasing and decreasing genes and an underrepresentation of oppositely regulated genes. Likewise, many of the top enriched GO terms for natural aging gene expression profiles were also enriched for genes changing the expression in the premature aging TSCmKO mice. Conclusions: Sustained, muscle fiber-specific mTORC1 activity drives sarcopenia-like gene expression programs, and the hyperactive mTORC1 seen in sarcopenic muscle may therefore contribute to sarcopenia.
