Animals (Basel) 2024; 14:576. [PMID: 38396545 PMCID: PMC10885906 DOI: 10.3390/ani14040576] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2024] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/06/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
CircRNA, a recently characterized non-coding RNA (ncRNA) variant, functions as a molecular sponge, exerting regulatory control by binding to microRNA (miRNA) and modulating the expression of downstream proteins, either promoting or inhibiting their expression. Among poultry species, geese hold significant importance, prized by consumers for their delectable taste and rich nutritional content. Despite the prominence of geese, research on the growth and development of goose muscle, particularly the regulatory role of circRNAs in goose muscle formation, remains insufficiently explored. In this study, we constructed comprehensive expression profiles of circRNAs and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) within the myoblasts and myotubes of Shitou geese. We identified a total of 96 differentially expressed circRNAs (DEcircRNAs) and 880 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEmRNAs). Notably, the parental genes of DEcircRNAs and DEmRNAs exhibited enrichment in the Wnt signaling pathway, highlighting its potential impact on the proliferation and differentiation of goose myoblasts. Employing RNAhybrid and miRDB, we identified circRNA-miRNA pairs and mRNA-miRNA pairs that may play a role in regulating myogenic differentiation or muscle growth. Subsequently, utilizing Cytoscape, we constructed a circRNA-miRNA-mRNA interaction network aimed at unraveling the intricate regulatory mechanisms involved in goose muscle growth and development, which comprises 93 circRNAs, 351 miRNAs, and 305 mRNAs. Moreover, the identification of 10 hub genes (ACTB, ACTN1, BDNF, PDGFRA, MYL1, EFNA5, MYSM1, THBS1, ITGA8, and ELN) potentially linked to myogenesis, along with the exploration of their circRNA-miRNA-hub gene regulatory axis, was also conducted. These competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) regulatory networks elucidate the molecular regulatory mechanisms associated with muscle growth in Shitou geese, providing deeper insights into the reciprocal regulation of circRNA, miRNA, and mRNA in the context of goose muscle formation.

Abstract
CircRNAs are a novel type of closed circular molecules formed through a covalent bond lacking a 5'cap and 3' end tail, which mainly arise from mRNA precursor. They are widely distributed in plants and animals and are characterized by stable structure, high conservativeness in cells or tissues, and showed the expression specificity at different stages of development in different tissues. CircRNAs have been gradually attracted wide attention with the development of RNA sequencing, which become a new research hotspot in the field of RNA. CircRNAs play an important role in gene expression regulation. Presently, the related circRNAs research in the regulation of animal muscle development is still at the initial stage. In this review, the formation, properties, biological functions of circRNAs were summarized. The recent research progresses of circRNAs in skeletal muscle growth and development from economic animals including livestock, poultry and fishes were introduced. Finally, we proposed a prospective for further studies of circRNAs in muscle development, and we hope our research could provide new ideas, some theoretical supports and helps for new molecular genetic markers exploitation and animal genetic breeding in future.

Abstract
This paper aims to explore the role of circRNA expression profiles and circRNA-associated ceRNA networks in the regulation of myogenesis in the longissimus dorsi of cattle breeds surviving under subtropical conditions in southern China by RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. It also aims to provide comprehensive understanding of the differences in muscle fibers in subtropical cattle breeds and to expand the knowledge of the molecular networks that regulate myogenesis. With regard to meat quality indicators, results showed that the longissimus dorsi of LQC had lower pH (P < 0.0001), lower redness (P < 0.01), lower shear force (P < 0.05), and higher brightness (P < 0.05) than the longissimus dorsi of LFC. With regard to muscle fiber characteristics, the longissimus dorsi of LQC had a smaller diameter (P < 0.0001) and higher density of muscle fibers (P < 0.05). The analysis results show that the function of many circRNA-targeted mRNAs was related to myogenesis and metabolic regulation. Furthermore, in the analysis of the function of circRNA source genes, we hypothesized that btacirc_00497 and btacirc_034497 may regulate the function and type of myofibrils by affecting the expression of MYH6, MYH7, and NEB through competitive linear splicing.

Abstract
The development of skeletal muscle in animals is a complex biological process, which are strictly and precisely regulated by many genes and non-coding RNAs. Circular RNA (circRNA) was found as a novel class of functional non-coding RNA with ring structure in recent years, which appears in the process of transcription and is formed by covalent binding of single-stranded RNA molecules. With the development of sequencing and bioinformatics analysis technology, the functions and regulation mechanisms of circRNAs have attracted great attention due to its high stability characteristics. The role of circRNAs in skeletal muscle development have been gradually revealed, where circRNAs were involved in various biological processes, such as proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis of skeletal muscle cells. In this review, we summarized the current studies advance of circRNAs involved in skeletal muscle development in bovine, and hope to gain a deeper understanding of the functional roles of the circRNAs in muscle growth. Our results will provide some theoretical supports and great helps for the genetic breeding of this species, and aiming at improving bovine growth and development and preventing muscle diseases.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a highly conserved and specifically expressed novel class of covalently closed non-coding RNAs. CircRNAs can function as miRNA sponges, protein scaffolds, and regulatory factors, and play various roles in development and other biological processes in mammals. With the rapid development of high-throughput sequencing technology, thousands of circRNAs have been discovered in farm animals; some reportedly play vital roles in skeletal muscle and adipose development. These are critical factors affecting meat yield and quality. In this review, we have highlighted the recent advances in circRNA-related studies of skeletal muscle and adipose in farm animals. We have also described the biogenesis, properties, and biological functions of circRNAs. Furthermore, we have comprehensively summarized the functions and regulatory mechanisms of circRNAs in skeletal muscle and adipose development in farm animals and their effects on economic traits such as meat yield and quality. Finally, we propose that circRNAs are putative novel targets to improve meat yield and quality traits during animal breeding.

Abstract
As Drosophila is an extensively used genetic model system, understanding of its regulatory networks has great significance in revealing the genetic mechanisms of ageing and human diseases. Competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA)-mediated regulation is an important mechanism by which circular RNAs (circRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) regulate ageing and age-related diseases. However, extensive analyses of the multiomics (circRNA/miRNA/mRNA and lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA) characteristics of adult Drosophila during ageing have not been reported. Here, differentially expressed circRNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs) between 7 and 42-day-old flies were screened and identified. Then, the differentially expressed mRNAs, circRNAs, miRNAs, and lncRNAs between the 7- and 42-day old flies were analysed to identify age-related circRNA/miRNA/mRNA and lncRNA/miRNA/mRNA networks in ageing Drosophila. Several key ceRNA networks were identified, such as the dme_circ_0009500/dme_miR-289-5p/CG31064, dme_circ_0009500/dme_miR-289-5p/frizzled, dme_circ_0009500/dme_miR-985-3p/Abl, and XLOC_027736/dme_miR-985-3p/Abl XLOC_189909/dme_miR-985-3p/Abl networks. Furthermore, real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) was used to verify the expression level of those genes. Those results suggest that the discovery of these ceRNA networks in ageing adult Drosophila provide new information for research on human ageing and age-related diseases.

miR-183/96/182 Cluster Regulates the Development of Bovine Myoblasts through Targeting FoxO1. Animals (Basel) 2022; 12:ani12202799.

Abstract
Simple Summary In this work, we identified that the miR-183/96/182 cluster was highly expressed in bovine embryonic muscle; meanwhile, it widely existed in other organizations. Functional assays indicated that the miR-183/96/182 cluster targets the FoxO1 gene to regulate the proliferation and differentiation of bovine myoblasts. Abstract Muscle development is an important factor affecting meat yield and quality and is coordinated by a variety of the myogenic genes and signaling pathways. Recent studies reported that miRNA, a class of highly conserved small noncoding RNA, is actively involved in regulating muscle development, but many miRNAs still need to be further explored. Here, we identified that the miR-183/96/182 cluster exhibited higher expression in bovine embryonic muscle; meanwhile, it widely existed in other organizations. Functionally, the results of the RT-qPCR, EdU, CCK8 and immunofluorescence assays demonstrated that the miR-183/96/182 cluster promoted proliferation and differentiation of bovine myoblast. Next, we found that the miR-183/96/182 cluster targeted FoxO1 and restrained its expression. Meanwhile, the expression of FoxO1 had a negative correlation with the expression of the miR-183/96/182 cluster during myoblast differentiation. In a word, our findings indicated that the miR-183/96/182 cluster serves as a positive regulator in the proliferation and differentiation of bovine myoblasts through suppressing the expression of FoxO1.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the complications experienced by patients with diabetes. In recent years, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been investigated because of their role in the progression of various diseases, including DCM. The purpose of the present study was to explore the role of lncRNA GAS5 in high glucose (HG)-induced cardiomyocyte injury and apoptosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS We constructed HG-induced AC16 cardiomyocytes and a streptozotocin (STZ)-induced rat diabetes model. GAS5 was overexpressed and knocked out at the cellular level, and GAS5 was knocked down by lentiviruses at the animal level to observe its effect on myocardial injury. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of GAS5. Cell proliferation and apoptosis after GAS5 knockout were detected by CCK-8, TUNEL, and flow cytometry assays. ELISA was used to detect the changes in myocardial enzyme content in cells and animal myocardial tissues during the action of GAS5 on myocardial injury. RESULTS GAS5 expression was up-regulated in HG-treated AC16 cardiomyocytes and the rat diabetic myocardial injury model. The down-regulation of GAS5 could inhibit HG-induced myocardial damage. This work proved that the down-regulation of GAS5 could reverse cardiomyocyte injury and apoptosis by targeting miR-138 to down-regulate CYP11B2. CONCLUSION We confirmed for the first time that the down-regulation of GAS5 could reverse CYP11B2 via the miR-138 axis to reverse HG-induced cardiomyocyte injury. This research might provide a new direction for explaining the developmental mechanism of DCM and potential targets for the treatment of myocardial injury.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle plays important roles in animal locomotion, metabolism, and meat production in farm animals. Current studies showed that non-coding RNAs, especially the circular RNA (circRNA) play an indispensable role in skeletal muscle development. Our previous study revealed that several differentially expressed circRNAs among fast muscle growing broilers (FMGB) and slow muscle growing layers (SMGL) may regulate muscle development in the chicken. In this study, a novel differentially expressed circPPP1R13B was identified. Molecular mechanism analysis indicated that circPPP1R13B targets miR-9-5p and negatively regulates the expression of miR-9-5p, which was previously reported to be an inhibitor of skeletal muscle development. In addition, circPPP1R13B positively regulated the expression of miR-9-5p target gene insulin like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 3 (IGF2BP3) and further activated the downstream insulin like growth factors (IGF)/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT serine/threonine kinase (AKT) signaling pathway. The results also showed that the knockdown of circPPP1R13B inhibits chicken skeletal muscle satellite cells (SMSCs) proliferation and differentiation, and the overexpression of circPPP1R13B promotes the proliferation and differentiation of chicken SMSCs. Furthermore, the overexpression of circPPP1R13B could block the inhibitory effect of miR-9-5p on chicken SMSC proliferation and differentiation. In summary, our results suggested that circPPP1R13B promotes chicken SMSC proliferation and differentiation by targeting miR-9-5p and activating IGF/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Abstract
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) have been reported to be implicated in cell fate determination and various human diseases. All ncRNA molecules are emerging as key regulators of diverse cellular processes; however, little is known about the regulatory interaction among these various classes of RNAs. It has been proposed that the large-scale regulatory network across the whole transcriptome is mediated by competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) activity attributed to both protein-coding and ncRNAs. ceRNAs are considered to be natural sponges of miRNAs that can influence the expression and availability of multiple miRNAs and, consequently, the global mRNA and protein levels. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of the role of ncRNAs in two neuromuscular diseases, myotonic dystrophy type 1 and 2 (DM1 and DM2), and the involvement of expanded CUG and CCUG repeat-containing transcripts in miRNA-mediated RNA crosstalk. More specifically, we discuss the possibility that long repeat tracts present in mutant transcripts can be potent miRNA sponges and may affect ceRNA crosstalk in these diseases. Moreover, we highlight practical information related to innovative disease modelling and studying RNA regulatory networks in cells. Extending knowledge of gene regulation by ncRNAs, and of complex regulatory ceRNA networks in DM1 and DM2, will help to address many questions pertinent to pathogenesis and treatment of these disorders; it may also help to better understand general rules of gene expression and to discover new rules of gene control.

[PMID: 33421208 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202001992r] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2020] [Revised: 11/30/2020] [Accepted: 12/14/2020] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
The noncoding RNAs play important role in growth and development of mammalian skeletal muscle. Recent work has shown that circRNAs are abundant in skeletal muscle tissue, with significant changes in their expression patterns during muscle development and aging. We identified a novel circRNA called circARID1A that is highly expressed in mice skeletal muscle compare to its linear transcript. Experiments shown that circARID1A significantly inhibited the process of C2C12 cell proliferation and promoted its differentiation. Interactions between circRNA and miRNA were screened by miRNA gene chip sequencing. The results indicated that circARID1A can sponge miR-6368, which was further verified by miRNA sensor and other experiments. Besides, miR-6368 is a commonly expressed miRNA that regulates the expression of several target genes including Tlr4. A mouse model of skeletal muscle injury was successfully established to explore the role of circARID1A in skeletal muscle development and regeneration in vivo. Moreover, we found the overexpression of circARID1A significantly promoted the regeneration of skeletal muscle. The results of our study suggest that circARID1A may regulate skeletal muscle cell development and regeneration by sponging miR-6368.
