Ramser A, Dridi S. Hormonal regulation of visfatin and adiponectin system in quail muscle cells. Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol 2023; 281:111425. [PMID: 37044369 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpa.2023.111425] [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: 03/23/2023] [Revised: 04/08/2023] [Accepted: 04/08/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023]
Abstract
Visfatin and adiponectin are two adipokines known to regulate energy homeostasis and stress response within different peripheral tissues. Their role and regulation in highly metabolically active tissue such as the muscle is of particular interest. As modern poultry exhibit insulin resistance, obesity, and hyperglycemia along with a lack of insight into the regulation of these avian adipokines, we undertook the present work to determine the regulation of visfatin and adiponectin system by cytokines and obesity-related hormones in a relevant in vitro model of avian muscle, quail muscle (QM7) cells. Cells were treated with pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6 (5 and 10 ng/mL) and TNFα (5 and 10 ng/mL), as well as leptin (10 and 100 ng/mL) and both orexin-A and orexin-B (ORX-A/B) (5 and 10 ng/mL). Results showed significant increases in visfatin mRNA abundance under both cytokines (IL-6 and TNFα), and down regulation with ORX-B treatment. Adiponectin expression was also upregulated by pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6 and TNFα), but down regulated by leptin, ORX-A, and ORXB. High doses of IL-6 and TNFα up regulated the expression of adiponectin receptors AdipoR1 and AdipoR2, respectively. Leptin and orexin treatments also down regulated both AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 expression. Taken together, this is the first report showing a direct response of visfatin and the adiponectin system to pro-inflammatory and obesity-related hormones in avian muscle cells.

Transcriptomic characterization of the molecular mechanisms induced by RGMa during skeletal muscle nuclei accretion and hypertrophy. BMC Genomics 2022; 23:188. [PMID: 35255809 PMCID: PMC8902710 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-022-08396-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/22/2021] [Accepted: 02/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The repulsive guidance molecule a (RGMa) is a GPI-anchor axon guidance molecule first found to play important roles during neuronal development. RGMa expression patterns and signaling pathways via Neogenin and/or as BMP coreceptors indicated that this axon guidance molecule could also be working in other processes and diseases, including during myogenesis. Previous works from our research group have consistently shown that RGMa is expressed in skeletal muscle cells and that its overexpression induces both nuclei accretion and hypertrophy in muscle cell lineages. However, the cellular components and molecular mechanisms induced by RGMa during the differentiation of skeletal muscle cells are poorly understood. In this work, the global transcription expression profile of RGMa-treated C2C12 myoblasts during the differentiation stage, obtained by RNA-seq, were reported. Results RGMa treatment could modulate the expression pattern of 2,195 transcripts in C2C12 skeletal muscle, with 943 upregulated and 1,252 downregulated. Among them, RGMa interfered with the expression of several RNA types, including categories related to the regulation of RNA splicing and degradation. The data also suggested that nuclei accretion induced by RGMa could be due to their capacity to induce the expression of transcripts related to ‘adherens junsctions’ and ‘extracellular-cell adhesion’, while RGMa effects on muscle hypertrophy might be due to (i) the activation of the mTOR-Akt independent axis and (ii) the regulation of the expression of transcripts related to atrophy. Finally, RGMa induced the expression of transcripts that encode skeletal muscle structural proteins, especially from sarcolemma and also those associated with striated muscle cell differentiation. Conclusions These results provide comprehensive knowledge of skeletal muscle transcript changes and pathways in response to RGMa.

Abstract
1. Sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), potassium carbonate (K2CO3), and ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) are commonly used to correct dietary electrolyte balance (DEB) in birds. However, there are many gaps in the knowledge of their effects when used simultaneously. This study investigated the effect of DEB levels on performance, femur bone characteristics and the expression of genes related to the balance of ionic concentrations in broilers at 21 days of age.2. Male Cobb broiler chickens (n = 245), aged 1-21 d, were divided into groups based on a completely randomised design with five DEB levels (110 mEq/kg, 175 mEq/kg, 240 mEq/kg, 305 mEq/kg, and 370 mEq/kg).3. The performance characteristics measured included body weight (BW), body weight gain (BWG), feed intake (FI), feed conversion (FCR) and body weight birds slaughtered (BWS).4. The bone variables assessed in the femur were weight (WE), relative bone weight (RBWE), length (L), width (WI), maximum load supported (MLS), bone-breaking resistance (BR), and Seedor index (SI). In addition, the expression of CHP1, SLC9A1, and SLC24A3 in the livers, intestines and kidneys of birds was evaluated.5. The DEB level of 370 mEq/kg, at Na+ content of 0.48%, resulted in the highest averages for L, MLS, and BR of the femur. This DEB level increased the expression of SLC9A1 in the liver and SLC24A3 in the intestine. A 240 mEq/kg DEB level decreased the expression of CHP1 in the liver, while supplementation with 110 mEq/kg increased the expression of SLC24A3 in the kidney.6. In conclusion, 370 mEq/kg DEB improved FCR and increased the mean bone characteristics of the femur (L, MLS, and BR) and the expression of SLC9A1 and SLC24A3 in the liver and intestine, respectively. These findings should be considered in future assessments of the effects of DEB levels on broilers.

Abstract
Skeletal myoblasts are activated satellite cells capable of proliferation and differentiation. Studies on mammalian myoblast differentiation and myogenesis could be carried out in vitro thanks to the availability of mouse myoblast cell line C2C12. Lacking of muscle cell line hinders the studies of teleost fish myogenesis. Here, we established a continuous skeletal muscle cell line from juvenile rockfish (Sebastes schlegelii) muscle using explant method and subcultured more than 50 passages for over 150 days. Stable expression of myoblast-specific marker, MyoD (myoblast determination protein) and the potential of differentiation into multi-nucleated skeletal myotubes upon induction suggested the cell line were predominately composed of myoblasts. Transcriptome analysis revealed a total of 4375 genes differentially expressed at four time points after the switch to differentiation medium, which were mainly involved in proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts. KIF22 (kinesin family member 22) and POLA1 (DNA polymerase alpha 1) were identified as the key genes involved in fish myoblast proliferation whereas MYL3 (myosin light chain 3) and TNNT2 (troponin T2) were determined as the crucial genes responsible for differentiation. In all, the continuous myoblasts cultured in this study provided a cell platform for future studies on marine fish myoblast differentiation and myogenesis. The molecular process of myoblast differentiation revealed in this study will open a window into the understanding of indeterminate muscle growth of large teleost.

Abstract
1.Embryonic stages before birth are crucial for poultry muscle development, as this determines muscle mass in adulthood. This study characterised the distinction in embryonic pectoral muscle development between Wuzong (WZE, small) and Shitou (STE, large) geese (two indigenous goose breeds in Guangdong Province, China) at embryonic days 15 (E15), 23 (E23) and the day of hatching (P1) to gain insights into the regulatory mechanisms of muscle development.2.The results showed that STE had significantly higher myofibre density during E15-P1 and had significantly larger myofibre diameter at E15 than WZE. By RNA-sequencing analysis, 19 507 genes were detected, and 7121 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified.3.Gene expression distinctions between breeds began increasing from E23, and WZE had different gene expression profiles compared to STE. A GO analysis of DEGs indicated that myo-genes involved at E15 may influence distinct pectoral muscle development characteristics between WZE and STE. The RT-qPCR results were consistent with the RNA-sequencing analysis. Four muscle structure protein coding genes (MYL2, MYL3, TNNI2 and TNNC2 and three other functional genes (CAV3, CACNA1S and NOS1) were identified in a predicted interaction network. These functional genes may interact with muscle structural protein coding genes to regulate embryonic pectoral muscle development in WZE and STE geese.4.The study revealed that STE and WZE had divergent embryonic pectoral muscle development patterns and these differences may begin before E15.

Abstract
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of endogenous non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) involved in regulating skeletal muscle development by sponging miRNAs. In this study, we found that the circMYL1 expression was down-regulated during myoblast proliferation, while gradually up-regulated in myoblast differentiation. The potential role of circMYL1 was identified in the proliferation of bovine myoblast through mRNA and protein expression of proliferation marker genes (PCNA, CyclinD1, and CDK2), cell counting kit-8 assay, flow cytometry analysis, and 5-ethynyl 2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) assay. Analysis of the expression of differentiation marker genes (MyoD, MyoG, and MYH2) and immunofluorescence of Myosin heavy chain (MyHC) was used to assess cell differentiation. The proliferation analysis revealed that circMYL1 inhibited the proliferation of bovine primary myoblast. Furthermore, the differentiation analysis demonstrated that circMYL1 promoted the differentiation of bovine primary myoblast. The luciferase screening and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays found that circMYL1 could have interaction with miR-2400. Additionally, we demonstrated that miR-2400 promoted proliferation and inhibited differentiation of bovine primary myoblast, while circMYL1 may eliminate the effects of miR-2400, as showed by rescue experiments. Together, our results revealed that a novel circular RNA of circMYL1 could inhibit proliferation and promote differentiation of myoblast by sponging miR-2400.

Muscle differentiation induced by p53 signaling pathway-related genes in myostatin-knockout quail myoblasts. Mol Biol Rep 2020; 47:9531-9540.

Abstract
The myostatin (MSTN) gene is of interest in the livestock industry because mutations in this gene are closely related to growth performance and muscle differentiation. Thus, in this study, we established MSTN knockout (KO) quail myoblasts (QM7) and investigated the regulatory pathway of the myogenic differentiation process. We used clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/Cas9 to generate MSTN KO QM7 cells and subsequently isolated a single cell-derived MSTN KO QM7 subline with 10- and 16-nucleotide deletions that induced translational frameshift mutations. The differentiation capacity and proliferation rate of MSTN KO QM7 cells were enhanced. We conducted next-generation-sequencing (NGS) analysis to compare the global gene expression profiles of wild-type (WT) QM7 and MSTN KO QM7 cells. Intriguingly, NGS expression profiles showed different expression patterns of p21 and p53 in MSTN KO QM7 cells. Moreover, we identified downregulated expression patterns of leukemia inhibitory factor and DNA Damage Inducible Transcript 4, which are genes in the p53 signaling pathway. Using quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis and western blotting, we concluded that p53-related genes promote the cell cycle by upregulating p21 and enhancing muscle differentiation in MSTN KO QM7 cells. These results could be applied to improve economic traits in commercial poultry by regulating MSTN-related networks.

Abstract
Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in many life activities, but the expression pattern and function of lncRNAs in Japanese flounder skeletal muscle are unclear. In this study, 751 lncRNAs were selected from skeletal muscle in different development stages of the Japanese flounder [stage A: larval 7 days post hatching (dph); stage B: juvenile about 90 dph; stage C (female) and stage D (male): adult about 24 months] using coding potential analysis methods. In total, 232, 211, 194, 28, 29, and 14 differentially expressed lncRNAs and 9549, 8673, 9181, 1821, 1080, and 557 differentially expressed mRNAs were identified in comparisons of A versus B, A versus C, A versus D, B versus C, B versus D, and C versus D, respectively. We identified the cis- and trans-regulatory target genes of differentially expressed lncRNAs, and lncRNA-gene interaction networks were constructed using the Cytoscape program. In total, there were 200, 200, 200, 93, 47, and 11 cis-regulation relationships, and 29, 19, 24, 38, 8, and 47 trans-regulation relationships in the comparisons between A versus B, A versus C, A versus D, B versus C, B versus D, and C versus D, respectively. These results indicate that lncRNA may participate in the development of Japanese flounder skeletal muscle through cis- or trans-acting mechanisms, thus providing a scientific basis for further study of the biological function of lncRNA in Japanese flounder skeletal muscle. Based on these relationships, functional annotation of the related lncRNAs was performed by gene ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis. Differentially expressed genes associated with muscle development were enriched in multiple pairs of comparisons (e.g., differentially expressed genes LOC109640370, LOC109634180, LOC109643555, rusc1, and LOC109626999 were enriched in the actin-binding term, and differentially expressed genes LOC109640370, was, LOC109644970, LOC109643555, and itga9 were enriched in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton pathway in the KEGG pathway analysis in the comparison of stages C and D). We predicted lncRNA-mRNA, miRNA-mRNA, and lncRNA-miRNA regulatory relationships and constructed interactive networks using Cytoscape software. Co-expression networks show that most lncRNAs interact with one or two predicted miRNAs involved in muscle growth and development. These results provide a basis for further study of the function of lncRNAs on skeletal muscle in different developmental stages of Japanese flounder.

Kim SM, Markkandan K, Lee JY, Kim GW, Yoo JY. Transcriptome Profiling Associated with Carcass Quality of Loin Muscles in Crossbred Pigs. Animals (Basel) 2020; 10:ani10081279. [PMID: 32727063 PMCID: PMC7569835 DOI: 10.3390/ani10081279] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2020] [Revised: 07/22/2020] [Accepted: 07/23/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Carcass quality traits, such as lean depth and loin depth, are of extreme economic importance for the swine industry. This study aimed to identify the gene expression pattern related to carcass quality in crossbred pigs ((Landrace × Yorkshire) × Duroc). In total, 20 crossbred pigs were used in this study and they were divided into two groups (class I grade, n = 10; class II grade, n = 10) based on the carcass grades. Total RNA samples extracted from the loin muscles of both groups were submitted for RNA-seq. The quality assessment of the sequencing reads resulted in 25,458 unigenes and found 12,795 candidate coding unigenes with homology to other species after annotation. Differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis of the two groups revealed 282 up-regulated and 189 down-regulated genes (p ≤ 0.01), linked to tissue development, striated muscle tissue development, tissue morphogenesis, and lipid metabolic process gene ontology (GO) terms. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis highlighted genes related to the calcium signaling pathway, melanogenesis, the sphingolipid signaling pathway, the apelin signaling pathway, and the mTOR signaling pathway. We constructed an expressed gene profile, which may serve as a resource for genomic studies focused on uncovering the molecular mechanisms underlying carcass quality in crossbred pigs.

Abstract
The aim of the study was to identify differences in the transcriptomic profiles of primary muscle cell cultures derived from the semitendinosus muscle of bulls of beef breeds (Limousin (LIM) and Hereford (HER)) and a dairy breed (Holstein-Friesian (HF)) (n = 4 for each breed). Finding a common expression pattern for proliferating cells may point to such an early orientation of the cattle beef phenotype at the transcriptome level of unfused myogenic cells. To check this hypothesis, microarray analyses were performed. The analysis revealed 825 upregulated and 1300 downregulated transcripts similar in both beef breeds (LIM and HER) and significantly different when compared with the dairy breed (HF) used as a reference. Ontological analyses showed that the largest group of genes were involved in muscle organ development. Muscle cells of beef breeds showed higher expression of genes involved in myogenesis (including erbb-3, myf5, myog, des, igf-1, tgfb2) and those encoding proteins comprising the contractile apparatus (acta1, actc1, myh3, myh11, myl1, myl2, myl4, tpm1, tnnt2, tnnc1). The obtained results confirmed our hypothesis that the expression profile of several groups of genes is common in beef breeds at the level of proliferating satellite cells but differs from that observed in typical dairy breeds.

Functional analyses of miRNA-146b-5p during myogenic proliferation and differentiation in chicken myoblasts. BMC Mol Cell Biol 2020; 21:40.

Abstract
Background In the poultry and livestock industries, precise genetic information is crucial for improving economic traits. Thus, functional genomic studies help to generate faster, healthier, and more efficient animal production. Chicken myoblast cells, which are required for muscle development and regeneration, are particularly important because chicken growth is closely related to muscle mass. Results In this study, we induced expression of microRNA-146b-5p mediated by the piggyBac transposon system in primary chicken myoblast (pCM) cells. Subsequently, we analyzed and compared the proliferation and differentiation capacity and also examined the expression of related genes in regular pCM (rpCM) cells and pCM cells overexpressing miRNA-146b-5p (pCM-146b OE cells). pCM-146b OE cells showed increased proliferation and upregulated gene expression related to cell proliferation. In addition, next-generation sequencing analyses were performed to compare global gene expression patterns between rpCM cells and pCM-146b OE cells. We found that the higher proliferation in pCM-146b OE cells was the result of upregulation of gene sets related to the cell cycle. Moreover, miRNA-146b-5p overexpression had inhibitory effects on myotube differentiation in pCM cells. Conclusions Collectively these results demonstrate that miR-146b-5p is closely related to the proliferation and differentiation of chicken myogenic cells as a modulator of post-transcription.

Abstract
A multilocus GWAS was performed to explore the genetic architecture of four growth traits in yak. In total, 354 female yaks for which measurements of body weight (BW), withers height (WH), body length (BL) and chest girth (CG) at weaning were available underwent genotyping with the Illumina BovineHD BeadChip (770K). After quality control, we retained 98 688 SNPs and 354 animals for GWAS analysis. We identified seven, 18, seven and nine SNPs (corresponding to seven, 17, seven and eight candidate genes) associated with BW, WH, BL and CG at weaning respectively. Interestingly, most of these candidate genes were reported to be involved in growth-related processes such as muscle formation, lipid deposition, feed efficiency, carcass composition and development of the central and peripheral nervous system. Our results offer novel insight into the molecular architecture underpinning yak growth traits. Further functional analyses are thus warranted to explore the molecular mechanisms whereby these genes affect these traits of interest.

Abstract
Lower maternal vitamin D status during lactation is a common health problem. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of maternal 25-hydroxycholecalciferol (25-OH-D3) supplementation during lactation on maternal and neonatal bone health in a sow model. 32 Large White × Landrace sows were assigned randomly to one of two diets supplemented with 2000 IU/kg vitamin D3 (ND) or 50 μg/kg 25-OH-D3 (25-D). The experiment began on day 107 of gestation and continued until weaning on day 21 of lactation. Maternal 25-OH-D3 supplementation significantly decreased milk n-6:n-3 PUFA ratio, which supported bone formation of piglets. Supplementation with 25-OH-D3 altered bone turnover rate of sows and piglets, as evidenced by higher bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (BALP) concentration in serum. 25-D sows had significantly higher bone density and mechanical properties of tibias and femurs than ND sows. Calcium (Ca) absorption rate was higher in 25-D sows than ND sows, which was caused partially by the increased mRNA expressions of renal 1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1) and duodenal vitamin D receptor (VDR), transient receptor potential vanilloid 6 (TRPV6), and calcium-binding protein D9k (CaBP-D9k). Maternal 25-OH-D3 supplementation increased tibial and femoral Ca content by up-regulating Ca-related gene expression in kidney (CYP27B1), ileum (VDR and claudin-2), and colon (VDR and CaBP-D9k), thus, activating 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25-(OH)2-D3]-dependent Ca transport in piglets. In conclusion, improved milk fatty acids and higher mRNA expressions of calcitropic genes triggered by maternal 25-OH-D3 supplementation would be the potential mechanism underlying the positive effects of 25-OH-D3 on maternal and neonatal bone health.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Effect of Long Intergenic Noncoding RNAs on Pig Muscle Growth and Fat Deposition. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2019; 2019:2951427. [PMID: 31341893 PMCID: PMC6614983 DOI: 10.1155/2019/2951427] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2019] [Accepted: 06/01/2019] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
Muscle growth and fat deposition are the two important biological processes in the development of pigs which are closely related to the pig production performance. Long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs), with lack of coding potential and the length of at least 200nt, have been extensively studied to play important roles in many biological processes. However, the importance and molecular regulation mechanism of lincRNAs in the process of muscle growth and fat deposition in pigs are still to be further studied comprehensively. In our study, we used the data, including liver, abdominal fat, and longissimus dorsi muscle of 240 days' age of two F2 full-sib female individuals from the white Duroc and Erhualian crossbreed, to identify 581 putative lincRNAs associated with pig muscle growth and fat deposition. The 581 putative lincRNAs shared many common features with other mammalian lincRNAs, such as fewer exons, lower expression levels, and shorter transcript lengths. Cross-tissue comparisons showed that many transcripts were tissue-specific and were involved in the important biological processes in their corresponding tissues. Gene ontology and pathway analysis revealed that many potential target genes (PTGs) of putative lincRNAs were involved in pig muscle growth and fat deposition-related processes, including muscle cell proliferation, lipid metabolism, and fatty acid degradation. In Quantitative Trait Locus (QTLs) analysis, some PTGs were screened from putative lincRNAs, MRPL12 is associated with muscle growth, GCGR and SLC25A10 were associated with fat deposition, and PPP3CA, DPYD, and FGGY were related not only to muscle growth but also to fat deposition. Therefore, it implied that these lincRNAs might participate in the biological processes related to muscle growth or fat deposition through homeostatic regulation of PTGs, but the detailed molecular regulatory mechanisms still needed to be further explored. This study lays the molecular foundation for the in-depth study of the role of lincRNAs in the pig muscle growth and fat deposition and further provides the new molecular markers for understanding the complex biological mechanisms of pig muscle growth and fat deposition.

Abstract
Pathophysiology of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is still elusive. Although progressive wasting of muscle fibres is a cause of muscle deterioration, there is a growing body of evidence that the triggering effects of DMD mutation are present at the earlier stage of muscle development and affect myogenic cells. Among these abnormalities, elevated activity of P2X7 receptors and increased store-operated calcium entry myoblasts have been identified in mdx mouse. Here, the metabotropic extracellular ATP/UTP-evoked response has been investigated. Sensitivity to antagonist, effect of gene silencing and cellular localization studies linked these elevated purinergic responses to the increased expression of P2Y2 but not P2Y4 receptors. These alterations have physiological implications as shown by reduced motility of mdx myoblasts upon treatment with P2Y2 agonist. However, the ultimate increase in intracellular calcium in dystrophic cells reflected complex alterations of calcium homeostasis identified in the RNA seq data and with significant modulation confirmed at the protein level, including a decrease of Gq11 subunit α, plasma membrane calcium ATP-ase, inositol-2,4,5-trisphosphate-receptor proteins and elevation of phospholipase Cβ, sarco-endoplamatic reticulum calcium ATP-ase and sodium‑calcium exchanger. In conclusion, whereas specificity of dystrophic myoblast excitation by extracellular nucleotides is determined by particular receptor overexpression, the intensity of such altered response depends on relative activities of downstream calcium regulators that are also affected by Dmd mutations. Furthermore, these phenotypic effects of DMD emerge as early as in undifferentiated muscle. Therefore, the pathogenesis of DMD and the relevance of current therapeutic approaches may need re-evaluation.
