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.

Decoding muscle-resident Schwann cell dynamics during neuromuscular junction remodeling [spinal crush]

Project description:This investigation leverages single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) to delineate the contributions of muscle-resident Schwann cells to neuromuscular junction (NMJ) remodeling in models of healthy, partially denervated, and completely denervated muscles. The study identifies several distinct Schwann cell subtypes, notably a novel terminal Schwann cell (tSC) subtype integral to the denervation-reinnervation cycle, distinguished by a transcriptomic signature indicative of cell migration and polarization. It also characterizes three myelin Schwann cell subtypes, which are notably enriched with genes associated with myelin production, in addition to mesenchymal differentiation and collagen synthesis. Importantly, SPP1 signaling emerges as a pivotal regulator of NMJ dynamics, promoting Schwann cell proliferation and muscle reinnervation across the studied nerve injury models. These findings advance our understanding of NMJ maintenance and regeneration and underscore the therapeutic potential of targeting specific molecular pathways to treat neuromuscular and neurodegenerative disorders.

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.

Muscle Stem Cell Response to Perturbations of the Neuromuscular Junction Are Attenuated With Aging

Project description:During aging and neuromuscular diseases, there is a progressive loss of skeletal muscle volume and function, which is often associated with denervation and a loss of muscle stem cells (MuSCs). A relationship between MuSCs and innervation has not been established however. Herein, we administered neuromuscular trauma to a MuSC lineage tracing model and observed a subset of MuSCs specifically engraft in a position proximal to the neuromuscular junction (NMJ). In aging and in a model of neuromuscular degeneration (Sod1-/-), this localized engraftment behavior was reduced. Genetic rescue of motor neurons in Sod1-/- mice reestablished integrity of the NMJ and partially restored MuSC ability to engraft into NMJ proximal positions. Using single cell RNA-sequencing of MuSCs, we demonstrate that a subset of MuSCs are molecularly distinguishable from MuSCs responding to myofiber injury. These data reveal unique features of MuSCs that respond to synaptic perturbations caused by aging and other stressors.

Transcriptome analysis of neuromuscular junction during degeneration and regeneration of axon terminal

Project description:The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is a specialized tripartite synapse composed of the motor axon terminal, covered by perisynaptic Schwann cells (PSCs), and the muscle fibre, separated by a basal lamina. It is exposed to different kind of injures such as mechanical traumas, pathogens including neurotoxins, and neuromuscular diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and immune-mediated disorders, and has retained throughout vertebrate evolution an intrinsic ability for repair and regeneration, at variance from central synapses1. Following peripheral nerve injury, an intense but poorly defined crosstalk takes place at the NMJ among its components, functional to nerve terminal regeneration. To identify crucial factors released by PSCs and the muscle to induce nerve regrowth, we performed a transcriptome analysis of the NMJ at different time points after injection of -latrotoxin, a presynaptic neurotoxin isolated from the venom of the black widow spider. This toxin is a simple and controlled method to induce an acute, localized and reversible nerve terminal degeneration not blurred by inflammation, and can help to identify molecules involved in the intra- and inter-cellular signalling governing NMJ regeneration.
