Abstract
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome spondylodysplastic type 3 (EDSSPD3, OMIM 612350) is an inherited recessive connective tissue disorder that is caused by loss of function of SLC39A13/ZIP13, a zinc transporter belonging to the Slc39a/ZIP family. We previously reported that patients with EDSSPD3 harboring a homozygous loss of function mutation (c.221G > A, p.G64D) in ZIP13 exon 2 (ZIP13G64D) suffer from impaired development of bone and connective tissues, and muscular hypotonia. However, whether ZIP13 participates in the early differentiation of these cell types remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the role of ZIP13 in myogenic differentiation using a murine myoblast cell line (C2C12) as well as patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). We found that ZIP13 gene expression was upregulated by myogenic stimulation in C2C12 cells, and its knockdown disrupted myotubular differentiation. Myocytes differentiated from iPSCs derived from patients with EDSSPD3 (EDSSPD3-iPSCs) also exhibited incomplete myogenic differentiation. Such phenotypic abnormalities of EDSSPD3-iPSC-derived myocytes were corrected by genomic editing of the pathogenic ZIP13G64D mutation. Collectively, our findings suggest the possible involvement of ZIP13 in myogenic differentiation, and that EDSSPD3-iPSCs established herein may be a promising tool to study the molecular basis underlying the clinical features caused by loss of ZIP13 function.

Abstract
We recently reported that phogrin, also known as IA-2β or PTPRN2, forms a complex with the insulin receptor in pancreatic β cells upon glucose stimulation and stabilizes insulin receptor substrate 2. In β cells of systemic phogrin gene knockout (IA-2β-/-) mice, impaired glucose-induced insulin secretion, decreased insulin granule density, and an increase in the number and size of lysosomes have been reported. Since phogrin is expressed not only in β cells but also in various neuroendocrine cells, the precise impact of phogrin expressed in β cells on these cells remains unclear. In this study, we performed a comprehensive analysis of morphological changes in RIP-Cre+/-Phogrinflox/flox (βKO) mice with β cell-specific phogrin gene knockout. Compared to control RIP-Cre+/- Phogrin+/+ (Ctrl) mice, aged βKO mice exhibited a decreased density of insulin granules, which can be categorized into three subtypes. While no differences were observed in the density and size of lysosomes and crinosomes, organelles involved in insulin granule reduction, significant alterations in the regions of lysosomes responding positively to carbohydrate labeling were evident in young βKO mice. These alterations differed from those in Ctrl mice and continued to change with age. These electron microscopic findings suggest that phogrin expression in pancreatic β cells plays a role in insulin granule homeostasis and crinophagy during aging, potentially through insulin autocrine signaling and other mechanisms.
