Single-nuclei sequencing of skeletal muscle reveals subsynaptic-specific transcripts involved in neuromuscular junction maintenance (snRNA-Seq)

Project description:The neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is the synapse formed between motor neurons and skeletal muscle fibers. Its stability relies on the continued expression of genes in a subset of myonuclei, called NMJ myonuclei. Here, we use single-nuclei RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) to identify numerous undescribed NMJ-specific transcripts. To elucidate how the NMJ transcriptome is regulated, we also performed snRNA-seq on sciatic nerve transected, botulinum toxin injected and Musk knockout muscles. These data show that NMJ gene expression is not only driven by agrin-Lrp4/MuSK signaling, but is also affected by electrical activity and trophic factors other than agrin. By selecting three previously undescribed NMJ genes Etv4, Lrtm1 and Pdzrn4, we further characterize novel contributors to NMJ stability and function. AAV-mediated overexpression and AAV-CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockout show that Etv4 is sufficient to upregulate expression of ~50% of the NMJ genes in non-synaptic myonuclei, while muscle-specific knockout of Pdzrn4 induces NMJ fragmentation. Further investigation of Pdzrn4 revealed that it localizes to the Golgi apparatus and interacts with MuSK protein. Collectively, our data provide a rich resource of NMJ transcripts, highlight the importance of ETS transcription factors at the NMJ and suggest a novel pathway for NMJ post-translational modifications.

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.
