動物の成長や運動に伴う骨格筋の肥大・再生は、1) 筋肉の主体である筋線維（極めて細長い巨大な筋細胞）の外側に存在する筋幹細胞（衛星細胞）や繊維芽細胞、2) 筋線維に付着している運動神経終盤、3) 筋線維を取り巻く毛細血管の相互の連携によって巧みに制御されていると予想される。本研究では、筋幹細胞と運動神経終盤とのコミュニケーションを担う分子基盤を明らかにすることを目的としている。この仕組みを解明できれば、家畜・家禽の骨格筋を効率的に肥大・再生させる画期的な食肉生産技術が創生されると期待される他、ALSなどの運動神経退行疾患の予防・治療法の開発などに大きく貢献すると予想される。.

2004.04, 代表者：辰巳隆一, 九州大学大学院農学研究院, 九州大学　大学院農学研究院　生物機能科学部門　生物機能化学講座畜産化学分野 (JPN)
活性化の逆方向の現象である衛星細胞の休止化の分子機構の解明を目指す。マイオスタチンと呼ばれる細胞増殖抑制因子（別名GDF-8、McPherron et al., Nature 387, 1997）が衛星細胞の休止化に関与することが示唆され（McCroskery et al., J. Cell Biol.162, 2003)、マイオスタチンの発現機構を含めた衛星細胞の休止化の仕組みを明らかにできれば、これを人為的に抑制し骨格筋を画期的に肥大させる新規技術が創生されると期待される。研究成果は食肉の生産性の向上はもとより、筋ジストロフィーの治療に関する再生医療やアスリートの運動能力の向上を目指すスポーツ科学とも密接に関連しており、食糧科学を越えた学際的な貢献が期待される。.

物理刺激をトリガーとした筋衛星細胞の活性化機構を追究している。これまでに、衛星細胞に物理刺激を負荷すると休止期からDNA構成準備期に復帰することを見出し、この活性化機構が、カルシウム・カルモジュリン複合体の形成、一酸化窒素合成酵素の活性化による一酸化窒素の産生、一酸化窒素依存的な肝細胞増殖因子（HGF）の細胞外マトリックスからの遊離、およびHGFのc-met受容体への結合と細胞内シグナル伝達系の活性化からなる大きなカスケードであることを突き止めた。現在、一酸化窒素依存的なHGF遊離機構を調べている。.

Allen, Ryuichi Tatsumi., Age-related nitration/dysfunction of myogenic stem cell activator HGF, Aging Cell, 10.1111/acel.14041, e14041, open access, 2023.11, Mechanical perturbation triggers activation of resident myogenic stem cells to enter the cell cycle through a cascade of events including hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) release from its extracellular tethering and the subsequent presentation to signaling-receptor c-met. Here, we show that with aging, extracellular HGF undergoes tyrosine-residue (Y) nitration and loses c-met binding, thereby disturbing muscle homeostasis. Biochemical studies demonstrated that nitration/dysfunction is specific to HGF among other major growth factors and is characterized by its locations at Y198 and Y250 in c-met-binding domains. Direct-immunofluorescence microscopy of lower hind limb muscles from three age groups of rat, provided direct in vivo evidence for age-related increases in nitration of ECM-bound HGF, preferentially stained for anti-nitrated Y198 and Y250-HGF mAbs (raised in-house) in fast IIa and IIx myofibers. Overall, findings highlight inhibitory impacts of HGF nitration on myogenic stem cell dynamics, pioneering a cogent discussion for better understanding age-related muscle atrophy and impaired regeneration with fibrosis (including sarcopenia and frailty)..

To verify the possible impact of nitration on postnatal muscle growth and regeneration, a pilot study was designed to examine the nitration/dysfunction of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), a key ligand that is released from the extracellular tethering and activates myogenic stem satellite cells to enter the cell cycle upon muscle stretch and injury. Exposure of recombinant HGF (a hetero-dimer of α- and β-chains) to peroxynitrite induces Y nitration in HGF α-chain under physiological conditions. Physiological significance of this finding was emphasized by Western blotting that showed the NK1 segment of HGF (including a K1 domain critical for signaling-receptor c-met binding) undergoes nitration with a primary target of Y198. Peroxynitrite treatment abolished HGF-agonistic activity of the NK1 segment, as revealed by in vitro c-met binding and bromodeoxyuridine-incorporation assays. Importantly, direct-immunofluorescence microscopy of rat lower hind-limb muscles from two aged-groups (2-month-old “young” and 12-month-old “retired/adult”) provided in vivo evidence for age-related nitration of extracellular HGF (Y198). Overall, findings provide the insight that HGF/NK1 nitration/dysfunction perturbs myogenic stem cell dynamics and homeostasis; hence NK1 nitration may stimulate progression of muscular disorders and diseases including sarcopenia..

E., Premature satellite cell activation before injury accelerates myogenesis and disrupts neuromuscular junction maturation in regenerating muscle, American Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology, 10.1152/ajpcell.00121.2020, 318, 1, C116-C128, 2020.05, Satellite cell (SC) activation, mediated by nitric oxide (NO), is essential to myogenic repair, whereas myotube function requires innervation. Semaphorin (Sema) 3A, a neuro-chemorepellent, is thought to regulate axon guidance to neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) during myotube differentiation. We tested whether “premature” SC activation (SC activation before injury) by a NO donor (isosorbide dinitrate) would disrupt early myogenesis and/or NMJs. Adult muscle was examined during regeneration in two models of injury: myotoxic cardiotoxin (CTX) and traumatic crush (CR) (n = 4 -5/group). Premature SC activation was confirmed by increased DNA synthesis by SCs immediately in pretreated mice after CTX injury. Myotubes grew faster after CTX than after CR; growth was accelerated by pretreatment. NMJ maturation, classified by silver histochemistry (neurites) and acetylcholinesterase (AchE), and α-bungarotoxin staining (Ach receptors, AchRs) were delayed by pretreatment, consistent with a day 6 rise in the denervation marker γ-AchR. With pretreatment, S100B from terminal Schwann cells (TSCs) increased 10- to 20-fold at days 0 and 10 after CTX and doubled 6 days after CR. Premature SC activation disrupted motoneuritogenesis 8 -10 days post-CTX, as pretreatment reduced colocalization of pre- and postsynaptic NMJ features and increased Sema3A-65. Premature SC activation before injury both accelerated myogenic repair and disrupted NMJ remodeling and maturation, possibly by reducing Sema3A neuro-repulsion and altering S100B. This interpretation extends the model of Sema3A-mediated motoneuritogenesis during muscle regeneration. Manipulating the timing and type of Sema3A by brief NO effects on SCs suggests an important role for TSCs and Sema3A-65 processing in axon guidance and NMJ restoration during muscle repair..

Primary cultures of SCs are useful to analyze cell functions; however, it is difficult to obtain highly pure SCs from young rats with the conventional procedures. The purpose of this study is to establish a purification method for SC isolation from young rats and quantitatively evaluate the purification procedure employing Percoll, a common research tool to purify cells. We elucidated the purity of SCs collected by Percoll density gradient centrifugation using real-time RT-qPCR and immunocytochemistry for desmin. Percoll treatment increased the purity of SCs isolated from young rats to nearly 90%, which was comparable to that achieved with the conventional method using middle-aged rats..

Here we show that Sema3A impacts slow-twitch fiber generation through a signaling pathway, cell-membrane receptor (neuropilin2-plexinA3) → myogenin-myocyte enhancer factor 2D (MEF2D) → slow myosin heavy chain. This novel axis was found by small interfering RNA (siRNA)-transfection experiments in myoblast cultures, which also revealed an additional element that Sema3A-neuropilin1/plexinA1, A2 may enhance slow-fiber formation by activating signals that inhibit fast-myosin expression. Importantly, satellite cell-specific Sema3A conditional-knockout adult mice (Pax7CreERT2-Sema3Aflox activated by tamoxifen-i.p. injection) provided direct in vivo evidence for the Sema3A-driven program, by showing that slow-fiber generation and muscle endurance were diminished after repair from cardiotoxin-injury of gastrocnemius muscle. Overall, the findings highlight an active role for satellite cell-secreted Sema3A ligand as a key “commitment factor” for the slow-fiber population during muscle regeneration. Results extend our understanding of the myogenic stem-cell strategy that regulates fiber-type differentiation and is responsible for skeletal muscle contractility, energy metabolism, fatigue resistance, and its susceptibility to aging and disease..

In order to identify a lower limit of the dietary contribution of APP to the effect, the experiments were designed for lower-dose supplementation (8-week feeding of 0.5% APP in AIN-93G diet) to 12-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rats. Results clearly showed that the 0.5% APP diet significantly up-regulates slower myosin-heavy-chain (MyHC) isoform ratios (IIx and IIa relative to total MyHC) and myoglobin expression in lower hind-limb muscles examined (P

APOBEC2 expression is predominant in skeletal and cardiac muscles and elevated exclusively at the early-differentiation phase of wild-type (WT) myoblast cultures; however the physiological significance is still un-known. Here we show that APOBEC2 is a key negative regulator of myoblast differentiation in muscle regeneration. APOBEC2-knockout (A2KO) mice myoblast cultures displayed a normal morphology of primary myotubes along with earlier increase in fusion index and higher expression levels of myosin heavy chain (MyHC), myogenin and its cooperating factor MEF2C than WT myoblasts. Similar response was observable in APOBEC2-knockdown cultures of WT myoblasts that were transfected with the specific siRNA at the differentiation phase (not proliferation phase). Importantly, cardiotoxin-injured A2KO gastrocnemius muscle provided in vivo evidence by showing larger up-regulation of neonatal MyHC and myogenin and hence earlier regeneration of myofiber structures with diminished cross-sectional areas and minimal Feret diameters. Therefore, the findings highlight a promising role for APOBEC2 in normal progression of regenerative myogenesis at the early-differentiation phase upon muscle injury..

Anderson, Ryuichi Tatsumi, Transmembrane proteoglycans syndecan-2, 4, receptor candidates for the impact of HGF and FGF2 on semaphorin 3A expression in early-differentiated myoblasts, Physiological Reports, 10.14814/phy2.12553, 3, 9, e12553, 2015.09, Regenerative mechanisms that regulate intramuscular motor innervation are thought to reside in the spatiotemporal expression of axon-guidance molecules. Our previous studies proposed an unexplored role of resident myogenic stem cell (satellite cell)-derived myoblasts as a key presenter of a secreted neural chemorepellent semaphorin 3A (Sema3A); hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF2) triggered its expression exclusively at the early-differentiation phase. In order to advance this concept, the present study described that transmembrane heparan/chondroitin-sulfate proteoglycans syndecan-2, 4 may be the plausible receptor candidates for HGF and FGF2 to signal Sema3A expression. Results showed that mRNA expression of syndecan-2, 4 was abundant (two-magnitude higher than syndecan-1, 3) in early-differentiated myoblasts and their in vitro knock-down diminished the HGF/FGF2-induced expression of Sema3A down to a baseline level. Pre-treatment with heparitinase and chondroitinase ABC decreased the HGF and FGF2 responses, respectively in non-knock-down cultures, supporting a possible model that HGF and FGF2 may bind to heparan and chondroitin sulfate chains of syndecan-2, 4 to signal Sema3A expression. The findings, therefore, extend our understanding that HGF/FGF2-syndecan-2, 4 association may stimulate a burst of Sema3A secretion by myoblasts recruited to the site of muscle injury; this would ensure a coordinated delay in the attachment of motoneuron terminals onto fibers early in muscle regeneration, and thus synchronize the recovery of muscle-fiber integrity and the early resolution of inflammation after injury with reinnervation toward functional recovery..

While an enhancement of lipid metabolism may be responsible, in part, for the improvement, the contributing mechanisms still need clarification. Here we show that an 8-week intake of 5% (w/w) APP in the diet, up-regulates two features related to fiber type: the ratio of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) type IIx/IIb and myoglobin protein expression in plantaris muscle of 9-week-old male Fischer F344 rats compared to pair-fed controls (P

Our previous studies showed that resident myogenic stem cells, satellite cells, up-regulate a secreted neural-chemorepellent semaphorin 3A (Sema3A) during the early-differentiation period, in response to hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) elevated in injured muscle. However, a paracrine source of the HGF release is still unknown. Very recently, we proposed a possible contribution of anti-inflammatory macrophages (CD206-positive M2) by showing that M2 cells infiltrate predominantly at the early-differentiation phase (3-5 days post-injury) and produce/secrete large amounts of HGF. In understanding this concept, however, there still remains a critical need to examine if phagocytotic pro-inflammatory macrophages (CD86-positive M1), another activated-phenotype still present at the early-differentiation phase concerned, produce HGF upon muscle injury. The current immunocytochemical study demonstrated that the HGF expression is negative for M1 prepared from cardiotoxin-injured tibialis anterior muscle at day-5, in contrast to the intense fluorescent-signal of M2 served as a positive control. This supplementary result advances our understanding of a spatiotemporal burst of HGF secretion from M2 populations (not M1) to impact Sema3A expression, which ensures a coordinated delay in attachment of motoneuron terminals onto damaged and generating fibers during early phase of muscle regeneration..

While the spatiotemporal regulatory mechanisms coordinating these processes (moto-neuritogenesis) with myogenesis itself remain unclear, various neural factors including attractive and repulsive axon-guidance cue ligands may be involved. Our previous studies proposed a heretofore unexplored role of resident myogenic stem cell (satellite cell)-derived myoblasts as a key presenter of a secreted neural chemorepellent semaphorin 3A (Sema3A); hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) triggered its expression exclusively at the early-differentiation phase. In order to verify this concept, the present study was designed to clarify a paracrine source of HGF release. In vitro experiments demonstrated that activated anti-inflammatory macrophages (CD206-positive M2) produce HGF and thereby promote myoblast chemoattraction and Sema3A expression. Media from pro-inflammatory macrophage cultures (M1) did not show any significant effect. M2 also enhanced the expression of myoblast-differentiation markers in culture, and infiltrated predominantly at the early-differentiation phase (3-5 d post-injury); M2 were confirmed to produce HGF as monitored by in vivo/ex vivo immunocytochemistry of CD11b/CD206/HGF-positive cells and by HGF in situ hybridization of cardiotoxin- or crush-injured tibialis anterior muscle, respectively. Findings, therefore, encourage the idea that M2 contribute to spatiotemporal up-regulation of extracellular Sema3A concentrations by producing HGF that, in turn, stimulates a burst of Sema3A secretion by myoblasts that are recruited to site of injury. This model may ensure a coordinated delay in re-attachment of motoneuron terminals onto damaged fibers early in muscle regeneration, and thus synchronize the recovery of muscle-fiber integrity after injury.

These studies advance our understanding of the stage-specific activation of Sema3A expression signaling. Findings, therefore, encourage the idea that M2 contribute to spatiotemporal up-regulation of extracellular Sema3A concentrations by producing HGF that, in turn, stimulates a burst of Sema3A secretion by myoblasts that are recruited to site of injury. This model may ensure a coordinated delay in re-attachment of motoneuron terminals onto damaged fibers early in muscle regeneration, and thus synchronize the recovery of muscle-fiber integrity and the early resolution of inflammation after injury..

The present study employed a muscle-crush injury model that may reflect the more physiologic damage and repair processes initiated by contusing a gastrocnemius muscle in lower hind-limb of adult mice with hemostat forceps, and examined the time-course invasion of M1 and M2 macrophages during muscle regeneration by immunocytochemistry of CD197 and CD206 marker proteins. CD197-positive M1 macrophages were observed exclusively at 1-4 days after crush followed by the alternative prevalence of CD206-positive M2 at 7-days of myogenic differentiation time-point characterized by increasing levels of myogenin mRNA expression. Preliminary PCR analysis showed that M2 may produce hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in culture, providing additional benefit to understanding that M2 populations actively promote regenerative myogenesis (muscle fiber repair) and moto-neuritogenesis (re-attachment of motoneuron terminals onto damaged fibers) through their time-specific infiltration and release of the growth factor at the injury site early in muscle regeneration. .

Anderson, Ryuichi Tatsumi, Semaphorin 3A secreted from myogenic stem cells promotes slow-twitch muscle fiber generation, 2013 EMBO Workshop on “Semaphorin Function and Mechanism in Action”, Cemay-la-Ville, France (October 29-31, 2013), 2013.10, Semaphorin 3A (Sema3A), a class 3 vertebrate-secreted semaphorin originally characterized as a potent neural chemorepellent, is now recognized to play crucial roles in angiogenesis, organogenesis, osteoclastogenesis and immune responses as a multi-functional modulator. Recently, we found that resident myogenic stem cells, satellite cells, up-regulate Sema3A expression and secretion exclusively at the early-myogenic differentiation phase in response to in vivo crush injury and hepatocyte growth factor treatment in the primary cultures (Tatsumi et al., 2009); however, its physiological significance in muscle regeneration is still unknown. Here we show that Sema3A impacts slow-type myosin heavy chain (slow-MyHC) expression in mouse satellite cell cultures. Sema3A-siRNA transfection significantly reduced expression of slow-MyHC as well as the muscle-specific transcription factor myogenin, and the down-stream mediators MEF2 as revealed by qPCR and western blotting analyses. Total MyHC expression level was unchanged, likely due to compensatory up-regulation of fast-MyHC during the 72-hr transfection period. Similar responses (except for fast-MyHC) were also observed in myogenin-knockdown cultures. In addition, reduced myogenin expression induced by immunoneutralization of the receptor neuropilin1 (Npn1) was rescued by co-addition of Sema3A protein. These results therefore indicate that Sema3A may activate a slow-MyHC expression-signaling axis consisting of Npn1, myogenin and MEF2. This model is supported by our comparative observations that satellite cells from soleus muscle (abundant in slow fibers) showed higher expression of Sema3A, myogenin and a co-receptor plexinA2 than those from EDL (Suzuki et al. 2013). Overall, the findings highlight a heretofore unexplored and active role for satellite cell-derived Sema3A as a key modulator of slow fiber generation during muscle regeneration, and advance our understanding of the multi-functional contributions of Sema3A..

Allen, Muscle regeneration dynamics mediated by resident myogenic stem cells: a possible implication in moto-neuritogenesis and fiber-type regulation, Tucson Symposium 2013 on “The Biology of Muscle Growth and Repair”, 2013.09, Skeletal muscle regeneration and work-induced hypertrophy are initiated by mechanical insult or other perturbation and one of the earliest events is triggering the activation (re-entry to cell cycle from G0) of quiescent resident myogenic stem cells, satellite cells. Recent studies of satellite cells in culture and in vivo addressed the possible dual-roles of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in the stretch-induced activation and the re-establishing quiescence. In the proposed scenario, the time-coordinated increase in extracellular HGF is a key modulator for the two contrary pathways having low and high thresholds to impact activation and the counterpart quiescence of satellite cells, respectively. Moreover, the role of HGF in muscle repair may not be restricted to myogenesis; we demonstrated that HGF up-regulates expression of secreted axon-guidance molecule semaphorin 3A (Sema3A) in satellite cells at early-differentiation phase in primary cultures and in vivo. The results encourage a possible implication of satellite cells in the spatiotemporal regulation of extracellular Sema3A concentrations, which potentially mediates restoration or remodeling of nerve-muscle connections in muscle regeneration in synchrony with recovery of muscle-fiber integrity and types (fast and slow). Very recently, we found in satellite cell cultures that the Sema3A ligand impacts slow-twitch fiber generation through a muscle-specific transcription factor myogenin-dependent pathway; Sema3A-siRNA transfection significantly reduced expression of slow-type myosin heavy chain (slow-MyHC) as well as myogenin and its co-mediator MEF2. Total MyHC protein expression level was likely unchanged, due to compensatory up-regulation of fast-MyHC and similar responses (except for fast-MyHC) were also observed in myogenin-knockdown cultures. Overall our results highlight the “programmed mechano-biology dynamics” that successful muscle regeneration, comprised of satellite cell-driving myogenesis, intramuscular moto-neuritogenesis and fiber-type regulation (survival), may be a programmed sequence of events that respond to a mechanical perturbation in a synchronous, HGF-dependent and time-coordinated manner..

Our previous studies proposed a heretofore unexplored role of satellite cells as a key source of a secreted neural chemorepellent semaphorin 3A (Sema3A) expression. In order to verify this concept, there is still a critical need to provide direct evidence to show the up-regulation of Sema3A protein in satellite cells in vivo upon muscle injury. The present study employed a Sema3A/MyoD double-immunohistochemical staining for cryo-sections prepared from cardiotoxin (CTX)-injected gastrocnemius muscle of adult mouse lower hind-limb. Results clearly demonstrated that Sema3A expression was up-regulated in MyoD-positive satellite cells at 4-12 days post-injury period, the time that corresponds to the cell differentiation phase characterized by increasing myogenin mRNA expression. This direct proof encourages a possible implication of satellite cells in the spatiotemporal regulation of extracellular Sema3A concentrations, which potentially ensures coordinating a delay in neurite sprouting and re-attachment of motoneuron terminals onto damaged muscle fibers early in muscle regeneration in synchrony with recovery of muscle-fiber integrity..

Here, we add evidence that the Sema3A expression and secretion induced by the growth factors is significantly higher in primary cultures from adult rat soleus than from the fast-twitch extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle. The higher Sema3A response, revealed by quantitative PCR and western blotting of cell lysates and conditioned media, may account for the higher myogenin expression of soleus muscle satellite cells early in differentiation since addition of recombinant Sema3A stimulates myogenin expression in cultures. These experiments also showed that mRNA expression of plexin A2, which together with neuropilins, constitutes Sema3A composite-receptors, was higher in satellite cells from soleus than EDL with no difference in plexin A1 and A3 and neuropilin-1 and 2 levels. These comparative studies, therefore, highlight a possible Sema3A-plexin A2-myogenin signaling axis that may ensure promoting early differentiation by soleus muscle satellite cells. .

Recently, we found that early-differentiated satellite cells up-regulate a secreted neural chemorepellent Sema3A upon in vivo muscle-crush injury. The study also revealed that Sema3A expression is up-regulated in primary satellite-cell cultures in response to hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF2) and prevented by transforming growth factor (TGF)-β2, 3 (Tatsumi et al. 2009. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol; Do et al. 2011. Am J Physiol Cell Physiol). In order to verify the physiological significance of this regulation in vitro, the present study was designed to estimate the time-course of extracellular HGF, FGF2 and TGF-β3 concentrations after crush-injury of gastrocnemius muscle in the rat lower hind-limb, using a combination of a non-homogenization/non-spin extraction of extracellular wound fluids and ECL-western blotting analyses. Results clearly demonstrated that active HGF and FGF2 are prevalent in 2-8 days post-crush, whereas active TGF-β3 increases after 12 days, providing a better understanding of the time-coordinated levels of HGF, FGF2, and TGF-β3 that drive regulation of Sema3A expression during regenerative intramuscular moto-neuritogenesis..

(*equal contributors), Mechano-Sensing Calcium-Influx Machinery that Instigates Skeletal Muscle Satellite Cell Activation, 2012 FASEB Science Research Conference on “Skeletal Muscle Satellite & Stem Cells", Lucca, Italy, 2012.08, When skeletal muscle is stretched or injured, satellite cells, resident myogenic stem cells positioned beneath the basal lamina of mature muscle fibers, are activated to enter the cell cycle. This signaling pathway is a cascade of events including calcium-calmodulin formation, nitric oxide (NO) radical production by NO synthase, matrix metalloproteinase activation, release of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) from the extracellular matrix, and presentation of HGF to the receptor c-met, as demonstrated by assays of primary cultures and in vivo experiments. Here, we add evidence that two ion channels, the mechano-sensitive cation channel (MS-channel) and the long-lasting-type voltage-gated calcium-ion channel (L-VGC-channel), mediate the influx of extracellular calcium ions in response to cyclic stretch in satellite-cell cultures. When applied to 1-hr stretch cultures with individual inhibitors for MS- and L-VGC-channels (GsMTx-4 and nifedipine, respectively) or with a less specific inhibitor for MS-channels (gadolinium chloride, Gd), satellite cell activation and upstream HGF release were abolished, as revealed by bromodeoxyuridine-incorporation assays and western blotting of conditioned media, respectively. The inhibition was dose-dependent with a maximum at 0.1 μM (GsMTx-4), 10 μM (nifedipine) or 100 μM (Gd) and cancelled by addition of HGF to the culture media; a potent inhibitor for transient-type VGC-channels (NNC55-0396, 100 μM) did not show any significant inhibitory effect. The stretch response was also abolished when calcium-chelator EGTA (1.8 mM) was added to the medium, indicating the significance of extracellular free calcium ions in our present activation model. Finally, cation/calcium channel dependencies were further documented by calcium-imaging analyses on stretched cells; results clearly demonstrated that calcium ion influx was abolished by GsMTx-4, nifedipine and EGTA. Therefore, these results provide an additional insight that calcium ions may flow in through L-VGC-channels by possible coupling with adjacent MS-channel gating that promotes the local depolarization of cell membranes to impact the satellite cell activation cascade..

Recently, we found that resident myogenic stem cells, satellite cells, up-regulate Sema3A expression and secretion exclusively at the early-myogenic differentiation phase in response to in vivo crush injury and HGF/FGF2 treatments in the primary cultures, suggesting possible implication of satellite cells in regenerative motoneuritogenesis including sprouting and attachment of motoneuron terminals onto damaged muscle fibers in synchrony with recovery of muscle-fiber structures (Tatsumi et al., Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 2009; Do et al., Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 2011). Here, we show that Sema3A also mediates post-natal myogenesis by stimulating the early differentiation of satellite cells. When recombinant Sema3A (R&D Systems) was added to satellite cell cultures for 24 hr from 48-hr post-plating, myogenin message (an early differentiation marker) was up-regulated in a dose-dependent manner with a maximum at 10 ng/ml. Sema3A-specific knock-down by RNAi technique (about 60-75% reduction efficiency) remarkably down-regulated myogenin expression at message and protein levels at the early-differentiation stage, however showed no significant effect on MyoD expression at the same phase and myosin heavy chain expression and myotube formation at the later stage. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed the presence of Sema3A membrane-receptor neuropilin1 (Npn1) at 48-hr post-plating, which is the early-differentiation time-point which siRNA was transfected to cells; immunoneutralization of Npn1 activity also reduced the myogenin expression, which can be rescued competitively by co-addition of Sema3A protein, to a level equivalent to control cultures without anti-Npn1 antibody and Sema3A. These results indicate that satellite cell-secreted Sema3A may bind to the receptor Npn1 to generate myogenin expression signaling that stimulates early differentiation of satellite cells in autocrine and/or paracrine fashions. This topic may be supported potentially by our comparative observations that rat soleus muscle satellite cells showed higher expression activities of Sema3A, myogenin, and plexinA2 (a signaling co-receptor protein for Sema3A) than EDL muscle cells at the early-differentiation stage. Overall, the data highlight again a heretofore unexplored and active role for Sema3A as a key regulator of the early myogenic differentiation of satellite cells during muscle regeneration, therefore providing a better understanding of multi-functional contributions of Sema3A..

Recently, we found that satellite cells up- or down-regulate Sema3A in time-dependent responses to in vivo muscle crush-injury and in vitro treatment with recombinant HGF, FGF2 or TGF-βs. Such responses imply that satellite cells are involved in regenerative motoneuritogenesis, including sprouting and re-attachment of motoneuron terminals onto damaged muscle fibers. In order to explore the mechanism of HGF/FGF2-induced Sema3A up-regulation, the present study was designed to investigate possible membrane receptors that are present on satellite cells and could be involved in that signaling pathway. First, we tested whether c-met and FGFR1, high-affinity receptors of HGF and FGF2 respectively, are responsible for Sema3A up-regulation. Treatment with anti-c-met and anti-FGFR1 neutralizing antibodies did not diminish Sema3A up-regulation, indicating that c-met and FGFR1 may not mediate the response. In addition to such high-affinity receptors, HGF and FGF2 also bind with lower affinity to glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains of proteoglycans - an important component of extracellular matrix- for a variety of biological functions. We therefore hypothesized that the association between HGF/FGF2 and GAG chains might mediate the Sema3A up-regulation. To test the hypothesis, satellite cell cultures were pretreated with GAG-degrading enzymes before the addition of HGF or FGF2, and the level of Sema3A expression was quantified by real-time qPCR. Results showed that treatment with heparitinase for partial removal of heparan sulfate chains significantly decreased induction of Sema3A up-regulation by HGF, but not FGF2. Similarly, treatment with chondroitinase ABC for partial removal of chondroitin sulfate chains significantly diminished the Sema3A up-regulation induced by FGF2, but not HGF. These results suggest that HGF and FGF2 bind to receptors carrying heparan and/or chondroitin sulfate chains; syndecans or other transmembrane-type proteoglycans appear to be plausible receptor candidates for signaling via growth factors to up-regulate Sema3A in satellite cells in culture. .

Komiya, Y., Mizunoya, W., Anderson, J.E., Goto, T., Takahashi, N., Kawada, T., Sato, Y., Nakamura, M., Tatsumi, R., and Ikeuchi, Y., Change of skeletal muscle fiber types by n-3 poly unsaturated fatty acid, 2012 FASEB Science Research Conference on “Skeletal Muscle Satellite & Stem Cells", Lucca, Italy, 2012.08, Skeletal muscle fibers are classified as type I (red/oxidative/slow) and type II (white/glycolytic/fast) based on color, metabolism and contractile properties. Type I fibers are especially mitochondria-rich and use oxidative metabolism for energy production. Thus, an increase of type I fibers can counteract obesity and reduce fatigue. In a recent study, the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) δ attracted attention as a factor regulating muscle fiber type. Over-expression of activated PPARδ caused a shift to slow-type fibers (Wang et al. 2004, PLoS Biol., 2: 1532-1539) and polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) has the ligand activity of PPARδ (Forman et al. 1996, Ann. N.Y.Acad.Sci., 804: 266-275). Recently, we found in rat skeletal muscle that fiber type distribution was slower in vivo after feeding with fish oil. To elucidate this phenomenon, we hypothesized that the change to slow muscle with fish oil results from fish oil PUFA activating the receptor activity of PPARδ. Here, we tested the hypothesis using a rat muscle fiber culture assay. Since muscle fiber-type transformation generally occurs in mature fibers, this culture model has the advantage that fibers can express mature MyHC isoforms while differentiated cell lines such as C2C12 and L6 cannot. Rat fiber cultures were established according to the mouse protocol (Wozniak and Anderson 2005, Biochem.Cell Biol., 83: 674-676) and over 90% muscle fibers were alive until 7 days of culture. When the PPARδ−specific agonist (GW501516) was added to fibers cultured for 7 days, transcript expression of MyHC1and 2A was up-regulated at day 1, lipoprotein lipase message was up-regulated at day 3, and pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase (PDK) 4 and uncoupling protein 3 were up-regulated at day 7. Using luciferase reporter assays, PPARδ ligand activity was measured for several kinds of fatty acid. Results showed that, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), abundant in fish oil, had higher ligand activity to PPARδ compared with other fatty acids. When EPA was added to fiber cultures for 24 hours, PDK4 mRNA was up-regulated. In addition, when both EPA and PPARδ-specific antagonist (GSK0660) were added to fiber cultures, the up-regulation of PDK4 mRNA by addition of EPA was reseted to the control level. In conclusion, EPA up-regulates a protein characteristic of slow-type muscle via PPARδ activation and may transform muscle fiber type into slow type. .

When muscle is injured, exercised, overused or mechanically stretched, these cells are activated to enter the cell proliferation cycle, divide, differentiate, and fuse with the adjacent muscle fiber, and are responsible for regeneration and work-induced hypertrophy of muscle fibers. Therefore, a mechanism must exist to translate mechanical changes in muscle tissue into chemical signals that can activate satellite cells. Recent studies of satellite cells or single muscle fibers in culture and in vivo demonstrated the essential role of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and nitric oxide (NO) radical in the activation pathway. These experiments have also reported that mechanically stretching satellite cells or living skeletal muscles triggers the activation by rapid release of HGF from its extracellular tethering and the subsequent presentation to the receptor c-met. HGF release has been shown to rely on calcium-calmodulin formation and NO radical production in satellite cells and/or muscle fibers in response to the mechanical perturbation, and depend on the subsequent up-regulation of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity. These results indicate that the activation mechanism is a cascade of events including calcium ion influx, calcium-calmodulin formation, NO synthase activation, NO radical production, MMP activation, HGF release and binding to c-met. Better understanding of ‘mechano-biology’ on the satellite cell activation is essential for designing procedures that could enhance muscle growth and repair activities in meat-animal agriculture and also in neuromuscular disease and aging in humans..

While the spatiotemporal regulatory mechanisms coordinating these processes with myogenesis remain unclear, various attractive and repulsive axon-guidance cues may be involved. Recently, we demonstrated that resident myogenic stem-satellite cells up-regulate a secreted neural-chemorepellent Sema3A during the early-differentiation period, in response to hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) elevated in injured muscle. The subsequent experiment showed that a paracrine source of the HGF release may be anti-inflammatory macrophages (M2). These findings therefore highlight a regulatory axis of “M2→satellite cells→motoneuron terminals” as an essential element of paracrine intercellular-communications that ensure the successful regenerative moto-neuritogenesis including the delay in sprouting and attachment of motoneuron terminals onto fibers. .

Andeson, Ryuichi Tatsumi, Semaphorin 3A secreted from myogenic stem cells promotes slow-twitch muscle fiber generation, 2013 EMBO Workshop on“Semaphorin Function and Mechanism in Action”, 2013.10, Semaphorin 3A (Sema3A), a class 3 vertebrate-secreted semaphorin originally characterized as a potent neural chemorepellent, is now recognized to play crucial roles in angiogenesis, organogenesis, osteoclastogenesis and immune responses as a multi-functional modulator. Recently, we found that resident myogenic stem cells, satellite cells, up-regulate Sema3A expression and secretion exclusively at the early-myogenic differentiation phase in response to in vivo crush injury and hepatocyte growth factor treatment in the primary cultures (Tatsumi et al., 2009); however, its physiological significance in muscle regeneration is still unknown. Here we show that Sema3A impacts slow-type myosin heavy chain (slow-MyHC) expression in mouse satellite cell cultures. Sema3A-siRNA transfection significantly reduced expression of slow-MyHC as well as the muscle-specific transcription factor myogenin, and the down-stream mediators MEF2 as revealed by qPCR and western blotting analyses. Total MyHC expression level was unchanged, likely due to compensatory up-regulation of fast-MyHC during the 72-hr transfection period. Similar responses (except for fast-MyHC) were also observed in myogenin-knockdown cultures. In addition, reduced myogenin expression induced by immunoneutralization of the receptor neuropilin1 (Npn1) was rescued by co-addition of Sema3A protein. These results therefore indicate that Sema3A may activate a slow-MyHC expression-signaling axis consisting of Npn1, myogenin and MEF2. This model is supported by our comparative observations that satellite cells from soleus muscle (abundant in slow fibers) showed higher expression of Sema3A, myogenin and a co-receptor plexinA2 than those from EDL (Suzuki et al. 2013). Overall, the findings highlight a heretofore unexplored and active role for satellite cell-derived Sema3A as a key modulator of slow fiber generation during muscle regeneration, and advance our understanding of the multi-functional contributions of Sema3A..

J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 2009; Sato et al., Anim. Sci. J. 2013）。また、TGF-β3の共添加によりHGFによるSema3Aの発現誘導はキャンセルされたことから、発現誘導因子(HGF)と抑制因子(TGF-β3)の時系列的な濃度変化によってSema3A発現が制御されていると考えられた（Do et al., Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 2011; Do et al., Anim. Sci. J. 2012）。さらには最近、筋再生の分化初期に浸潤してくる代替的活性化マクロファージ（抗炎症性Mφ、M2）がHGFを大量に分泌し、衛星細胞のSema3A発現を誘導することを明らかにした（Sakaguchi et al., PLoS ONE, 投稿中）。これらの知見から、運動神経末端の筋線維への再接着にも衛星細胞と抗炎症性Mφが積極的に関与していると予想され、抗炎症性Mφ→衛星細胞→運動神経末端の制御軸、即ち、筋組織内に存在する異種細胞群の相互連携調節（コミュニケーション）によって筋肥大・再生が巧みに制御されていると考えられた。　衛星細胞の活性化と休止化 (Yamada et al., Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 2010)、およびSema3Aの合成・分泌がいずれもHGFによって誘導されることから、前述の筋肥大・再生の基盤現象が物理刺激を引き金として時系列的に自動進行するように巧みに制御されていると推測される。この「筋肥大・再生のプログラムドメカノバイオロジー」を理解することにより、食肉を効率的に生産する新規技術の開発や、ヒトの筋疾患および加齢・不活動による筋変性退行を抑制する技術開発に資すると期待される。.

Allen, Muscle regeneration dynamics mediated by resident myogenic stem cells: a possible implication in moto-neuritogenesis and fiber-type regulation, Tucson Symposium 2013 on "The Biology of Muscle Growth and Repair", 2013.09, Skeletal muscle regeneration and work-induced hypertrophy are initiated by mechanical insult or other perturbation and one of the earliest events is triggering the activation (re-entry to cell cycle from G0) of quiescent resident myogenic stem cells, satellite cells. Recent studies of satellite cells in culture and in vivo addressed the possible dual-roles of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) in the stretch-induced activation and the re-establishing quiescence. In the proposed scenario, the time-coordinated increase in extracellular HGF is a key modulator for the two contrary pathways having low and high thresholds to impact activation and the counterpart quiescence of satellite cells, respectively. Moreover, the role of HGF in muscle repair may not be restricted to myogenesis; we demonstrated that HGF up-regulates expression of secreted axon-guidance molecule semaphorin 3A (Sema3A) in satellite cells at early-differentiation phase in primary cultures and in vivo. The results encourage a possible implication of satellite cells in the spatiotemporal regulation of extracellular Sema3A concentrations, which potentially mediates restoration or remodeling of nerve-muscle connections in muscle regeneration in synchrony with recovery of muscle-fiber integrity and types (fast and slow). Very recently, we found in satellite cell cultures that the Sema3A ligand impacts slow-twitch fiber generation through a muscle-specific transcription factor myogenin-dependent pathway; Sema3A-siRNA transfection significantly reduced expression of slow-type myosin heavy chain (slow-MyHC) as well as myogenin and its co-mediator MEF2. Total MyHC protein expression level was likely unchanged, due to compensatory up-regulation of fast-MyHC and similar responses (except for fast-MyHC) were also observed in myogenin-knockdown cultures. Overall our results highlight the “programmed mechano-biology dynamics” that successful muscle regeneration, comprised of satellite cell-driving myogenesis, intramuscular moto-neuritogenesis and fiber-type regulation (survival), may be a programmed sequence of events that respond to a mechanical perturbation in a synchronous, HGF-dependent and time-coordinated manner..

(*equal contributors), Mechano-Sensing Calcium-Influx Machinery that Instigates Skeletal Muscle Satellite Cell Activation, 2012 FASEB Science Research Conference on “Skeletal Muscle Satellite & Stem Cells”, 2012.08, When skeletal muscle is stretched or injured, satellite cells, resident myogenic stem cells positioned beneath the basal lamina of mature muscle fibers, are activated to enter the cell cycle. This signaling pathway is a cascade of events including calcium-calmodulin formation, nitric oxide (NO) radical production by NO synthase, matrix metalloproteinase activation, release of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) from the extracellular matrix, and presentation of HGF to the receptor c-met, as demonstrated by assays of primary cultures and in vivo experiments. Here, we add evidence that two ion channels, the mechano-sensitive cation channel (MS-channel) and the long-lasting-type voltage-gated calcium-ion channel (L-VGC-channel), mediate the influx of extracellular calcium ions in response to cyclic stretch in satellite-cell cultures. When applied to 1-hr stretch cultures with individual inhibitors for MS- and L-VGC-channels (GsMTx-4 and nifedipine, respectively) or with a less specific inhibitor for MS-channels (gadolinium chloride, Gd), satellite cell activation and upstream HGF release were abolished, as revealed by bromodeoxyuridine-incorporation assays and western blotting of conditioned media, respectively. The inhibition was dose-dependent with a maximum at 0.1 μM (GsMTx-4), 10 μM (nifedipine) or 100 μM (Gd) and cancelled by addition of HGF to the culture media; a potent inhibitor for transient-type VGC-channels (NNC55-0396, 100 μM) did not show any significant inhibitory effect. The stretch response was also abolished when calcium-chelator EGTA (1.8 mM) was added to the medium, indicating the significance of extracellular free calcium ions in our present activation model. Finally, cation/calcium channel dependencies were further documented by calcium-imaging analyses on stretched cells; results clearly demonstrated that calcium ion influx was abolished by GsMTx-4, nifedipine and EGTA. Therefore, these results provide an additional insight that calcium ions may flow in through L-VGC-channels by possible coupling with adjacent MS-channel gating that promotes the local depolarization of cell membranes to impact the satellite cell activation cascade. Key Words: Calcium ion influx; Mechano-sensitive channel; Muscle regeneration; Satellite cells; Stretch-activation; Voltage-gated channel.

Suzuki, T., Ojima, K., Do, M.Q., Hara, M., Mizunoya, W., Nakamura, M., Ikeuchi, Y., Anderson, J.E. and Tatsumi, R., Semaphorin 3A regulates the early differentiation of satellite cells, 2012 FASEB Science Research Conference on “Skeletal Muscle Satellite & Stem Cells”, 2012.08, Semaphorin 3A (Sema3A), a class 3 vertebrate-secreted semaphorin, is a potent axon-guidance molecule for sensory, sympathetic and motor neurons. Recently, we found that resident myogenic stem cells, satellite cells, up-regulate Sema3A expression and secretion exclusively at the early-myogenic differentiation phase in response to in vivo crush injury and HGF/FGF2 treatments in the primary cultures, suggesting possible implication of satellite cells in regenerative motoneuritogenesis including sprouting and attachment of motoneuron terminals onto damaged muscle fibers in synchrony with recovery of muscle-fiber structures (Tatsumi et al., Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 2009; Do et al., Am. J. Physiol. Cell Physiol. 2011). Here, we show that Sema3A also mediates post-natal myogenesis by stimulating the early differentiation of satellite cells. When recombinant Sema3A (R&D Systems) was added to satellite cell cultures for 24 hr from 48-hr post-plating, myogenin message (an early differentiation marker) was up-regulated in a dose-dependent manner with a maximum at 10 ng/ml. Sema3A-specific knock-down by RNAi technique (about 60-75% reduction efficiency) remarkably down-regulated myogenin expression at message and protein levels at the early-differentiation stage, however showed no significant effect on MyoD expression at the same phase and myosin heavy chain expression and myotube formation at the later stage. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed the presence of Sema3A membrane-receptor neuropilin1 (Npn1) at 48-hr post-plating, which is the early-differentiation time-point which siRNA was transfected to cells; immunoneutralization of Npn1 activity also reduced the myogenin expression, which can be rescued competitively by co-addition of Sema3A protein, to a level equivalent to control cultures without anti-Npn1 antibody and Sema3A. These results indicate that satellite cell-secreted Sema3A may bind to the receptor Npn1 to generate myogenin expression signaling that stimulates early differentiation of satellite cells in autocrine and/or paracrine fashions. This topic may be supported potentially by our comparative observations that rat soleus muscle satellite cells showed higher expression activities of Sema3A, myogenin, and plexinA2 (a signaling co-receptor protein for Sema3A) than EDL muscle cells at the early-differentiation stage. Overall, the data highlight again a heretofore unexplored and active role for Sema3A as a key regulator of the early myogenic differentiation of satellite cells during muscle regeneration, therefore providing a better understanding of multi-functional contributions of Sema3A..

Recently, we found that satellite cells up- or down-regulate Sema3A in time-dependent responses to in vivo muscle crush-injury and in vitro treatment with recombinant HGF, FGF2 or TGF-βs. Such responses imply that satellite cells are involved in regenerative motoneuritogenesis, including sprouting and re-attachment of motoneuron terminals onto damaged muscle fibers. In order to explore the mechanism of HGF/FGF2-induced Sema3A up-regulation, the present study was designed to investigate possible membrane receptors that are present on satellite cells and could be involved in that signaling pathway. First, we tested whether c-met and FGFR1, high-affinity receptors of HGF and FGF2 respectively, are responsible for Sema3A up-regulation. Treatment with anti-c-met and anti-FGFR1 neutralizing antibodies did not diminish Sema3A up-regulation, indicating that c-met and FGFR1 may not mediate the response. In addition to such high-affinity receptors, HGF and FGF2 also bind with lower affinity to glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains of proteoglycans - an important component of extracellular matrix- for a variety of biological functions. We therefore hypothesized that the association between HGF/FGF2 and GAG chains might mediate the Sema3A up-regulation. To test the hypothesis, satellite cell cultures were pretreated with GAG-degrading enzymes before the addition of HGF or FGF2, and the level of Sema3A expression was quantified by real-time qPCR. Results showed that treatment with heparitinase for partial removal of heparan sulfate chains significantly decreased induction of Sema3A up-regulation by HGF, but not FGF2. Similarly, treatment with chondroitinase ABC for partial removal of chondroitin sulfate chains significantly diminished the Sema3A up-regulation induced by FGF2, but not HGF. These results suggest that HGF and FGF2 bind to receptors carrying heparan and/or chondroitin sulfate chains; syndecans or other transmembrane-type proteoglycans appear to be plausible receptor candidates for signaling via growth factors to up-regulate Sema3A in satellite cells in culture. .
