Myogenin and CMD1, the chicken homologue of MyoD, transactivate the promoter of the alpha-subunit of the acetylcholine receptor (AChR) in chicken fibroblasts. The expression of these three genes was followed by in situ hybridization. In two-day-old embryos the CMD1 gene is expressed shortly before the AChR alpha-subunit and the myogenin genes. At day 19 extrajunctional AChR mRNA clusters have disappeared and myogenin mRNAs are no longer detected in PLD muscle. Moreover, both myogenin and CMD1 mRNA levels increase after muscle denervation in chicks. These data are compatible with a role for myogenic factors in the induction and maintenance of extra-junctional expression of the AChR genes during early muscle development. Using digoxygenin labelled RNA probes, we also show that the mRNAs for the AChR alpha-subunit display a punctated, probably perinuclear distribution, whereas mRNAs for myogenic genes accumulate in the sarcoplasm around subsets of nuclei in the muscle fiber. 相似文献

Differential regulation of MyoD and myogenin mRNA levels by nerve induced muscle activity. 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
The levels of mRNAs coding for the myogenic factors MyoD and myogenin were measured during synapse formation in developing muscle and in adult muscle, after denervation and reinnervation and after muscle paralysis induced by blocking of neuromuscular transmission by neurotoxins known to alter the density and localization of synaptic proteins such as the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). The mRNA levels of both factors depend on usage of the neuromuscular synapses, but they change to different extents. Myogenin mRNA levels decrease drastically with innervation and increase strongly following blocking of transmission whereas the level of MyoD mRNA showed only a small decrease in response to innervation, denervation or muscle paralysis by neurotoxins. Neither mRNA showed a synapse-related cellular distribution. The results suggest that nerve-induced electrical muscle activity determines the cellular ratio of MyoD and myogenin mRNAs in adult muscle. 相似文献

In vertebrate development, a prominent feature of several cell lineages is the coupling of cell cycle regulation with terminal differentiation. We have investigated the basis of this relationship in the skeletal muscle lineage by studying the effects of the proliferation-associated regulator, c-myc, on the differentiation of MyoD-initiated myoblasts. Transient cotransfection assays in NIH 3T3 cells using MyoD and c-myc expression vectors demonstrated c-myc suppression of MyoD-initiated differentiation. A stable cell system was also developed in which MyoD expression was constitutive, while myc levels could be elevated conditionally. Induction of this conditional c-myc suppressed myogenesis effectively, even in the presence of MyoD. c-myc suppression also prevented up-regulation of a relative of MyoD, myogenin, which is normally expressed at the onset of differentiation in all muscle cell lines examined and may be essential for differentiation. Additional experiments tested whether failure to differentiate in the presence of myc could be overcome by providing myogenin ectopically. Cotransfection of c-myc with myogenin, MyoD, or a mixture of myogenin and MyoD showed that neither myogenin alone nor myogenin plus MyoD together could bypass the c-myc block. The effects of c-myc were further dissected by showing that c-myc can inhibit differentiation independently of Id, a negative regulator of muscle differentiation. These results lead us to propose that c-myc and Id constitute independent negative regulators of muscle differentiation, while myogenin and any of the other three related myogenic factors (MyoD, Myf-5, and MRF4/herculin/Myf-6) act as positive regulators. 相似文献

Acetylcholine receptor (AChR) expression in innervated muscle is limited to the synaptic region. Neuron-induced electrical activity participates in this compartmentalization by promoting the repression of AChR expression in the extrasynaptic regions. Here, we show that the corepressor CtBP1 (C-terminal binding protein 1) is present on the myogenin promoter together with repressive histone marks. shRNA-mediated downregulation of CtBP1 expression is sufficient to derepress myogenin and AChR expression in innervated muscle. Upon denervation, CtBP1 is displaced from the myogenin promoter and relocates to the cytoplasm, while repressive histone marks are replaced by activating ones concomitantly to the activation of myogenin expression. We also observed that upon denervation the p21-activated kinase 1 (PAK1) expression is upregulated, suggesting that phosphorylation by PAK1 may be involved in the relocation of CtBP1. Indeed, preventing CtBP1 Ser158 phosphorylation induces CtBP1 accumulation in the nuclei and abrogates the activation of myogenin and AChR expression. Altogether, these findings reveal a molecular mechanism to account for the coordinated control of chromatin modifications and muscle gene expression by presynaptic neurons via a PAK1/CtBP1 pathway. 相似文献

Electrical activity is thought to be the primary neural stimulus regulating muscle mass, expression of myogenic regulatory factor genes, and cellular activity within skeletal muscle. However, the relative contribution of neural influences that are activity-dependent and -independent in modulating these characteristics is unclear. Comparisons of denervation (no neural influence) and spinal cord isolation (SI, neural influence with minimal activity) after 3, 14, and 28 days of treatment were used to demonstrate whether there are neural influences on muscle that are activity independent. Furthermore, the effects of these manipulations were compared for a fast ankle extensor (medial gastrocnemius) and a fast ankle flexor (tibialis anterior). The mass of both muscles plateaued at approximately 60% of control 2 wk after SI, whereas both muscles progressively atrophied to <25% of initial mass at this same time point after denervation. A rapid increase in myogenin and, to a lesser extent, MyoD mRNAs and proteins was observed in denervated and SI muscles: at the later time points, these myogenic regulatory factors remained elevated in denervated, but not in SI, muscles. This widespread neural activity-independent influence on MyoD and myogenin expression was observed in myonuclei and satellite cells and was not specific for fast or slow fiber phenotypes. Mitotic activity of satellite and connective tissue cells also was consistently lower in SI than in denervated muscles. These results demonstrate a neural effect independent of electrical activity that 1) helps preserve muscle mass, 2) regulates muscle-specific genes, and 3) potentially spares the satellite cell pool in inactive muscles. 相似文献
