Age-dependent decline of B3AR agonist-mediated activation of FAP UCP-1 expression in murine models of chronic rotator cuff repair. J Orthop Res 2024. [PMID: 38796742 DOI: 10.1002/jor.25905] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2023] [Revised: 05/03/2024] [Accepted: 05/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/28/2024]
Abstract
Amibegron, a β3-adrenergic receptor (B3AR) agonist, has recently been shown to provide therapeutic effects for chronic rotator cuff (RC) tears by inducing the expression of uncoupling protein 1 (UCP-1), a marker of brown fat, in fibroadipogenic progenitors (FAPs). However, it remains to be seen if these beneficial effects hold true with age and in older, more clinically relevant populations. This study seeks to understand the impacts of aging on the efficacy of amibegron to treat chronic RC tears. Young (4-month-old) and aged (33-month-old) C57BL/6 mice underwent a RC injury procedure with delayed repair (DR). Mice were equally randomized to receive amibegron or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) treatments after repair. Functional ability was measured at baseline and 6-weeks after DR. Wet muscle weight and histology of injured and contralateral supraspinatus were also analyzed 6-weeks post-DR. For in vitro histology and real-time quantitative PCR experiments, FAPs were isolated from young and aged mice via fluorescence-activated cell sorting. Young and aged FAPs were treated with amibegron or DMSO either immediately after seeding (early exposure) or 8-days after seeding (late exposure). In vitro results showed that amibegron-mediated FAP UCP-1 expression decreases with age. In vivo data demonstrated that aged mice have a decreased responsiveness to amibegron and decreased propensity for intramuscular FAP UCP-1 expression. Further, delayed amibegron treatment with RC repair did not lead to improvements in muscle atrophy and functional outcomes. Our findings demonstrate that age and the timing of interventions play a critical role in FAP-targeted therapeutics for chronic injuries.

Abstract
Satellite cells (SCs) and fibroadipogenic progenitors (FAPs) are progenitor populations found in muscle that form new myofibers postinjury. Muscle development, regeneration, and tissue-engineering experiments require robust progenitor populations, yet their isolation and expansion are difficult given their scarcity in muscle, limited muscle biopsy sizes in humans, and lack of methodological detail in the literature. Here, we investigated whether a dispase and collagenase type 1 and 2 cocktail could allow dual isolation of SCs and FAPs, enabling significantly increased yield from human skeletal muscle. Postdissociation, we found that single cells could be sorted into CD56 + CD31-CD45- (SC) and CD56-CD31-CD45- (FAP) cell populations, expanded in culture, and characterized for lineage-specific marker expression and differentiation capacity; we obtained ∼10% SCs and ∼40% FAPs, with yields twofold better than what is reported in current literature. SCs were PAX7+ and retained CD56 expression and myogenic fusion potential after multiple passages, expanding up to 1012 cells. Conversely, FAPs expressed CD140a and differentiated into either fibroblasts or adipocytes upon induction. This study demonstrates robust isolation of both SCs and FAPs from the same muscle sample with SC recovery more than two times higher than previously reported, which could enable translational studies for muscle injuries.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We demonstrated that a dispase/collagenase cocktail allows for simultaneous isolation of SCs and FAPs with 2× higher SC yield compared with other studies. We provide a thorough characterization of SC and FAP in vitro expansion that other studies have not reported. Following our dissociation, SCs and FAPs were able to expand by up to 1012 cells before reaching senescence and maintained differentiation capacity in vitro demonstrating their efficacy for clinical translation for muscle injury.

Abstract
Cultivated meat scale-up and industrial production will require multiple stable cell lines from different species to recreate the organoleptic and nutritional properties of meat from livestock. In this Review, we explore the potential of stem cells to create the major cellular components of cultivated meat. By using developments in the fields of tissue engineering and biomedicine, we explore the advantages and disadvantages of strategies involving primary adult and pluripotent stem cells for generating cell sources that can be grown at scale. These myogenic, adipogenic or extracellular matrix-producing adult stem cells as well as embryonic or inducible pluripotent stem cells are discussed for their proliferative and differentiation capacity, necessary for cultivated meat. We examine the challenges for industrial scale-up, including differentiation and culture protocols, as well as genetic modification options for stem cell immortalization and controlled differentiation. Finally, we discuss stem cell-related safety and regulatory challenges for bringing cultivated meat to the marketplace.

Abstract
Age-related loss of muscle mass and function negatively impacts healthspan and lifespan. Satellite cells function as muscle stem cells in muscle maintenance and regeneration by self-renewal, activation, proliferation and differentiation. These processes are perturbed in aging at the stem cell population level, contributing to muscle loss. However, how representation of subpopulations within the human satellite cell pool change during aging remains poorly understood. We previously reported a comprehensive baseline of human satellite cell (Hu-MuSCs) transcriptional activity in muscle homeostasis describing functional heterogenous human satellite cell subpopulations such as CAV1+ Hu-MUSCs. Here, we sequenced additional satellite cells from new healthy donors and performed extended transcriptomic analyses with regard to aging. We found an age-related loss of global transcriptomic heterogeneity and identified new markers (CAV1, CXCL14, GPX3) along with previously described ones (FN1, ITGB1, SPRY1) that are altered during aging in human satellite cells. These findings describe new transcriptomic changes that occur during aging in human satellite cells and provide a foundation for understanding functional impact.

Abstract
In this work, a 3D environment obtained using fibrin scaffold and two cell populations, such as bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs), and primary skeletal muscle cells (SkMs), was assembled. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) fraction obtained after blood filtration with HemaTrate® filter was then added to the 3D culture system to explore their influence on myogenesis. The best cell ratio into a 3D fibrin hydrogel was 1:1 (BM-MSCs plus SkMs:PBMCs) when cultured in a perfusion bioreactor; indeed, excellent viability and myogenic event induction were observed. Myogenic genes were significantly overexpressed when cultured with PBMCs, such as MyoD1 of 118-fold at day 14 and Desmin 6-fold at day 21. Desmin and Myosin Heavy Chain were also detected at protein level by immunostaining along the culture. Moreover, the presence of PBMCs in 3D culture induced a significant downregulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine gene expression, such as IL6. This smart biomimetic environment can be an excellent tool for investigation of cellular crosstalk and PBMC influence on myogenic processes.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle has a remarkable capacity to regenerate throughout life, which is mediated by its resident muscle stem cells, also called satellite cells. Satellite cells, located periphery to the muscle fibers and underneath the basal lamina, are an indispensable cellular source for muscle regeneration. Satellite cell transplantation into regenerating muscle contributes robustly to muscle repair, thereby indicating that satellite cells indeed function as adult muscle stem cells. Moreover, satellite cells are a heterogenous population in adult tissue, with subpopulations that can be distinguished based on gene expression, cell-cycle progression, ability to self-renew, and bi-potential ability. Transplantation assays provide a powerful tool to better understand satellite cell function in vivo enabling the separation of functionally distinct satellite cell subpopulations. In this review, we focus on transplantation strategies to explore satellite cells’ functional heterogeneity, approaches targeting the recipient tissue to improve transplantation efficiency, and common strategies to monitor the behaviour of the transplanted cells. Lastly, we discuss some recent approaches to overcome challenges to enhance the transplantation potential of muscle stem cells.

Abstract
Approximately 11% of monogenic diseases involve nonsense mutations that are caused by premature termination codons. These codons can in principle be read-through via the site-specific incorporation of unnatural amino acids to generate full-length proteins with minimal loss of function. Here we report that aminoacyl-tRNA-synthase-tRNA pairs specific for the desired unnatural amino acids can be used to read through a nonsense mutation in the dystrophin gene. We show partial restoration of dystrophin expression in differentiated primary myoblasts (from a mdx mouse model and a patient with Duchenne muscular dystrophy), and restoration of muscle function in two mouse models: mdx mice, via viral delivery of the engineered tRNA-synthase-tRNA pair intraperitoneally or intramuscularly and of the associated unnatural amino acid intraperitoneally; and mice produced by crossing mdx mice and transgenic mice with a chromosomally integrated pair, via intraperitoneal delivery of the unnatural amino acid. The incorporation of unnatural amino acids to restore endogenous protein expression could be explored for therapeutic use.

Abstract
Abnormalities in skeletal muscle repair can lead to poor function and complications such as scarring or heterotopic ossification (HO). Here, we use fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP), a disease of progressive HO caused by ACVR1R206H (Activin receptor type-1 receptor) mutation, to elucidate how ACVR1 affects skeletal muscle repair. Rare and unique primary FOP human muscle stem cells (Hu-MuSCs) isolated from cadaveric skeletal muscle demonstrated increased extracellular matric (ECM) marker expression, showed skeletal muscle-specific impaired engraftment and regeneration ability. Human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived muscle stem/progenitor cells (iMPCs) single-cell transcriptome analyses from FOP also revealed unusually increased ECM and osteogenic marker expression compared to control iMPCs. These results show that iMPCs can recapitulate many aspects of Hu-MuSCs for detailed in vitro study; that ACVR1 is a key regulator of Hu-MuSC function and skeletal muscle repair; and that ACVR1 activation in iMPCs or Hu-MuSCs may contribute to HO by changing the local tissue environment.

Abstract
Although heterogeneity is recognized within the murine satellite cell pool, a comprehensive understanding of distinct subpopulations and their functional relevance in human satellite cells is lacking. We used a combination of single cell RNA sequencing and flow cytometry to identify, distinguish, and physically separate novel subpopulations of human PAX7+ satellite cells (Hu-MuSCs) from normal muscles. We found that, although relatively homogeneous compared to activated satellite cells and committed progenitors, the Hu-MuSC pool contains clusters of transcriptionally distinct cells with consistency across human individuals. New surface marker combinations were enriched in transcriptional subclusters, including a subpopulation of Hu-MuSCs marked by CXCR4/CD29/CD56/CAV1 (CAV1+). In vitro, CAV1+ Hu-MuSCs are morphologically distinct, and characterized by resistance to activation compared to CAV1- Hu-MuSCs. In vivo, CAV1+ Hu-MuSCs demonstrated increased engraftment after transplantation. Our findings provide a comprehensive transcriptional view of normal Hu-MuSCs and describe new heterogeneity, enabling separation of functionally distinct human satellite cell subpopulations.

Abstract
Investigation of human muscle regeneration requires robust methods to purify and transplant muscle stem and progenitor cells that collectively constitute the human satellite cell (HuSC) pool. Existing approaches have yet to make HuSCs widely accessible for researchers, and as a result human muscle stem cell research has advanced slowly. Here, we describe a robust and predictable HuSC purification process that is effective for each human skeletal muscle tested and the development of storage protocols and transplantation models in dystrophin-deficient and wild-type recipients. Enzymatic digestion, magnetic column depletion, and 6-marker flow-cytometric purification enable separation of 104 highly enriched HuSCs per gram of muscle. Cryostorage of HuSCs preserves viability, phenotype, and transplantation potential. Development of enhanced and species-specific transplantation protocols enabled serial HuSC xenotransplantation and recovery. These protocols and models provide an accessible system for basic and translational investigation and clinical development of HuSCs. High-efficiency purification permits serial transplantation of human satellite stem cells Cryopreservation preserves satellite cell function and phenotype 1 gram of adult skeletal muscle yields 104 highly purified satellite cells Purified uncultured endogenous human satellite cells can be stored and shared
