摘要

BackgroundThe growth of muscle tissue and its regeneration frominjury is crucially dependent on a self-renewing populationof muscle progenitor cells called satellite cells. Activatedsatellite cells give rise to a rapidly expandingpopulation of myoblasts that increase muscle mass bydifferentiating into new or adding into pre-existing musclefibers. Patients with mutations in the chromatinremodeling gene ATRX are clinically characterised bysevere cognitive disabilities and muscular hypotonia,thus dramatically compromising their independent locomotoryability.Materials and methodsWe generated a skeletal muscle specific knockout mousemodel by interbreeding Myf5-Cre mice with mice harbouringthe Atrx floxed conditional knockout allele (hereinreferred to as Atrx cKO). Body mass of Atrx cKO andcontrol littermates were measured along with generalmorphometric analysis of select hindlimb muscles at 3-weeks, 5-weeks, and greater than 8-weeks of age. Methodsof analysis included single muscle fiber preparations fromthe extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus musclesas well as RNA expression analysis from the EDL andsoleus muscles. Primary myoblasts were also culturedfrom dissociated muscle tissue from the hindlimbs andanalyzed via immuno-fluorescent microscopy. Neuromuscularacuity and endurance was assessed in Atrx cKO andcontrol littermates by the roto-rod apparatus. Musclestrength was assessed by utilizing a digital grip strengthmeasuring apparatus.ResultsAtrx cKO mice presented with telltale characteristics ofweaker musculature, exemplified by spinal kyphosis andreduced body mass at 3-weeks of age. Satellite cell derivedmyoblasts from Atrx cKO mice were incapable of rapidexpansion in culture but were fully capable of terminallydifferentiating. Atrx cKO myoblasts displayed delayed cellcycle progression through mid-late S-phase and rampantsigns of genomic instability characterised by fragmentednuclei, g-H2AX foci, and telomeric aberrations. Despiteinefficient myoblast proliferative capacity, Atrx cKO animalswere able to re-establish normal body mass by adulthood.Muscular fitness and function in Atrx cKO micewas also age dependent, as younger 3-week old Atrx cKOmice had a reduced capacity to stay on the roto-rod andpoorer gripping strength. However, differences in gripstrength of adult Atrx cKO mice were almost indistinguishablefrom their control littermates. Data regardingpathways mediating the hypertrophic compensatory adaptationin Atrx cKO mice will also be presented.ConclusionsInefficient expansion of activated satellite cells in AtrxcKO mice results in delayed muscle development up to3-weeks of age, when myonuclear accretion reaches itsplateau. Reduced muscle mass at 3-weeks of age also correlatedwith poorer performance in physical tasks thatrequire muscular force, endurance, and coordination.Compensatory mechanisms are triggered after 3-weeks ofage in Atrx cKO mice that allow for the eventual recoveryof body mass and muscle functionality in adults.
