Myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs) are important in the control of skeletal muscle development. To understand myogenic regulation by MRFs in bovine adult muscle cells, their expressions, namely that of Myf5, MyoD, myogenin, and MRF4 in the biceps femoris muscle (BF) and in the satellite cell culture, were analyzed by RT-PCR. In the BF, all four MRFs were expressed and in particular, myogenin and MRF4 were strongly expressed, whereas Myf5 was faintly expressed. The satellite cells prepared from the BF expressed Myf5, but only a trace of MyoD, at day 9 of culture. During the growth of the cells to day 14, the MyoD and myogenin expressions gradually increased, and that of MyoD expression reached its maximum at the confluence of the culture. After induction of myogenic differentiation by a serum-free medium at day 14, Myf5 expression gradually decreased, and the up-regulated expression of MyoD was suppressed, whereas myogenin expression continued to increase sharply. Following the myogenin expression, MRF4 also drastically increased toward the myotube formation of the cells. When huge myotubes were formed at day 18, Myf5 was expressed at a low level, whereas the MyoD expression remained at a moderate level.  相似文献

We examined expression of four important members of myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs) in the myoblasts both at mRNA and protein levels, which were subjected to mechanical stretching in in vitro condition. Our results showed that MyoD expression existed both in the stretch and in the control group at all time periods of the mechanical stimulus. Myf-5 expressed only at early stage of the stretch group. Although mRNA and protein expressions of myogenin and MRF4 were detected both in the stretch and in the control group at 12 h after the stretching, their expressions were only shown in the stretch group at 24 h after the mechanical stimulus. However, at 36 and 48 h, none of the MRFs examined except MyoD appeared in both groups. Our results suggest that the MRFs are up-regulated upon mechanical stimulus and each member plays a different major role for either proliferation or differentiation of the myoblasts.  相似文献

The aims of the present study were to establish a culture system for goat skeletal muscle stem cells and to examine their myogenic and adipogenic properties in vitro. Cells were isolated from the skeletal muscle of the Shiba goat and cultured in vitro. Most of the cells were positive for myogenic markers, such as Pax7, MyoD, and desmin, and immunocytochemistry revealed they differentiated to form myotubes expressing myosin heavy chain, indicating they were highly myogenic. Myogenic differentiation was strongly suppressed by the addition of basic fibroblast growth factor, while proliferation was unaffected. When the cells were cultured in adipogenic differentiation medium, some of the cells differentiated into mature adipocytes that stained with Oil Red-O. These cells were immunocytochemically positive for adipogenic markers, including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPAR gamma) and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-alpha (C/EBP alpha). These results clearly demonstrate the presence of both myogenic and adipogenic stem cells in goat skeletal muscle.  相似文献

Lean weight is related to muscle fiber number. Muscle fiber formation (myogenesis) occurs only during embryonic development when it is under the control of the MyoD gene family consisting of myogenin, MyoD1, myf-5, and myf-6. Myogenin has a central position within the MyoD gene family because myogenin expression abrogates myoblast proliferation potential and regulates the differentiation of single nucleated myoblasts into multinucleated myofibers. Thus, myogenin genotype could be related to variation in the number of muscle fibers formed, leading to variation in muscle mass and, thus, lean weight. A polymorphism at the porcine myogenin locus was associated with birth weight, growth rate, lean weight at 200 d, and backfat thickness. Yorkshire pigs from two commercial lines were genotyped, and crosses between heterozygous pigs and heterozygous and homozygous pigs were made. Resulting litters were genotyped, and phenotypic data were collected. Significant differences were found between the two homozygous myogenin genotypes for birth weight, growth rate, and lean weight, but not for backfat thickness. Variation at the myogenin locus explained 4% of the total phenotypic variation in birth weight, growth rate, and carcass weight, and 5.8% of the total variation in lean weight. We conclude that myogenin genotype influences porcine growth rate and muscle mass.  相似文献

Satellite cells activity contributes to postnatal muscle growth. Herein, we have studied the respective influence of insulin and triiodothyronine (T3) on the proliferation and differentiation of primary bovine satellite cells isolated from Semitendinosus muscle of Montbéliard steers. Under basal conditions, satellite cells proliferated until the fifth day of culture, began to fuse into myotubes and expressed differentiation markers such as connectin, myogenin, and myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms. Insulin behaved as an effective mitogen. Moreover, it promoted extensive myotube formation and enhanced differentiation as shown by an increase in the accumulation of differentiation markers. Maximal differentiation occurred with insulin physiological range concentrations. A delay in the stimulation of differentiation was registered with a high dose that promoted maximal proliferation. Conversely, T3 decreased cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, fusion and biochemical differentiation (accumulation of connectin, MyoD1, myogenin, and myosin heavy chain isoforms) were also enhanced. Bovine satellite cells seemed to respond differentially to insulin and T3 for proliferation. Interestingly, both hormones displayed a myogenic influence. Our observations suggest that both hormones could influence bovine satellite cells in vivo and contribute to the regulation of postnatal muscle growth.  相似文献

Satellite cells are a heterogeneous population of myogenic precursors responsible for muscle growth and repair in mammals. The objectives of the experiment were to examine the growth rates and degree of heterogeneity within bovine satellite cells (BSC) isolated from young and adult animals. The BSC were harvested from the semimembranosus of young (4.3 ± 0.5 d) and adult (estimated 24 to 27 mo) cattle and cultured en masse. Young animal BSC re-enter the cell cycle sooner and reach maximal 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation earlier (P < 0.05) than adult contemporaries. Adult BSC contain fewer (P < 0.05) MyoD and myogenin immunopositive nuclei than BSC isolated from young animals after 3, 4, and 5 d in culture. These results indicate that BSC from young animals activate, proliferate, and differentiate sooner than isolates from adult animals. Lineage heterogeneity within BSC was examined using antibodies specific for Pax7 and Myf5, lineage markers of satellite cells, and myoblasts. Immunocytochemistry revealed the majority of Pax7-expressing BSC also express Myf5; a minor population (~5%) fails to exhibit Myf5 immunoreactivity. The percentage of Pax7:Myf5 BSC from young animals decreases sooner (P < 0.05) in culture than adult BSC, indicating a more rapid rate of muscle fiber formation. A subpopulation immunopositive for Myf5 only was identified in both ages of BSC isolates. The growth kinetics and heterogeneity of young BSC was further evaluated by clonal analysis. Single cell clones were established and analyzed after 10 d. Colonies segregated into 2 groups based upon population doubling time. Immunostaining of the slow-growing colonies (population doubling time ≥ 3 d) revealed that a portion exhibited asymmetric distribution of the lineage markers Pax7 and Myf5, similar to self-renewable mouse muscle stem cells. In summary, these results offer insight into the heterogeneity of BSC and provide evidence for subtle differences between rodent and bovine myogenic precursors.  相似文献

The degree of intramuscular adipose tissue accumulation is one of the factors affecting meat quality. Accumulation of adipocytes is also observed under the pathological condition of skeletal muscle such as muscular dystrophy and sarcopenia. The origin of adipocytes seen in skeletal muscle is mesenchymal progenitor cells that can give rise to both adipocytes and fibroblasts. In the present study, we demonstrated that siRNA-mediated suppression of MyoD expression in rat skeletal muscle progenitor cell culture, which comprises both myogenic satellite cells and mesenchymal progenitor cells, resulted in diminished myotube formation and an unexpected spontaneous appearance of white adipocytes. Suppressing myomaker expression also resulted in complete absence of myotube formation without reducing MyoD expression, but no adipogenesis was seen in this scenario, indicating that decline in MyoD expression rather than decreased myotube formation is necessary to induce adipogenesis. In addition, spontaneous adipogenesis induced by suppressing MyoD expression in culture was inhibited by the conditioned medium from control culture, indicating that anti-adipogenic factor(s) are secreted from MyoD-positive myogenic cells. These results indicate the presence of regulatory mechanism on adipogenesis by myogenic cells.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Performing a biopsy is currently the best method of diagnosing liver disease. To reduce possible risk factors resulting from a biopsy, liver cytology can provide an alternative technique. The diagnostic accuracy of cytology for identifying liver tumors is, however, limited. The results of cytology might be improved by using immunochemistry for Ki-67, a proliferation marker, on liver cytology specimens. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to investigate the value of Ki-67 immunochemistry on liver cytologic specimens from dogs for identifying neoplastic diseases of the liver, by comparing the results to histologic findings. METHODS: Liver biopsy and cytology samples were obtained from 30 dogs with hepatic disease. All samples were evaluated by an anatomic pathologist and a cytopathologist. Parallel Ki-67 immunochemistry of histologic and cytologic samples was performed. The gradation of Ki-67 expression in histologic and cytologic samples was assessed. RESULTS: Cytologic specimens of liver tumors (n = 9) showed <50% Ki-67-positive cells. Twenty of 21 cases of non-neoplastic liver disease had no or few single Ki-67-positive cells. Using Ki-67, the diagnostic accuracy of cytologic evaluation was increased from 78% to 100% for malignant neoplasia. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the results of this study, the cytologic evaluation of liver together with Ki-67 immunochemistry can improve the diagnostic accuracy of cytology for liver neoplasia.  相似文献

Livestock meat production capacity is related to muscle fiber numbers and growth. Muscle fibers develop during early embryonic development from proliferating and differentiating myoblasts. Post-natal muscle growth requires satellite cell proliferation and differentiation. Myoblast and satellite cell proliferation and differentiation is regulated by the genes of the MyoD gene family (myogenin, myf-5, myf-6, and MyoD1). Our aim was to study the mRNA expression of these genes in postnatal muscle tissue in relation to porcine selection for growth rate or leanness. Five boars from a line selected for fast growth (F-line) and five boars from a line selected against backfat thickness (L-line) were slaughtered, and biopsies were taken from 12 muscles. Between-line effects, within-line effects in relation to the performance of the pigs, and muscle-specific effects were studied. Comparing the F-line with the L-line revealed significantly greater myogenin, myf-5, and MyoD1 mRNA expression in some muscles of the F-line. The expression of myf-6 showed a tendency for the opposite effect in some muscles. Muscles were ordered by their muscle-specific growth rate (b-value). Within-line evaluation of the data revealed a systematic muscle effect for the myf-6 expression level in the F-line because higher b-values correlated with increased myf-6 expression level. Backfat thickness was negatively related to myogenin expression in the F-line. A relationship was found between myogenin:MyoD1 mRNA expression ratio and meat color/muscle fiber type composition in the L-line. Furthermore, the myogenin:MyoD1 ratio was greater in muscles from F-line boars than in muscles from L-line boars, which relates to the difference between the lines in muscle fiber type. We conclude that the mRNA levels of the MyoD genes in porcine muscle tissue at slaughter showed different relationships to selection for growth rate when evaluated between selection lines and within selection lines.  相似文献

To clarify muscle type‐specific effect of myostatin on myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs), we examined mRNA expression of MRFs in five skeletal muscles of normal (NM) and myostatin‐deficient double‐muscled (DM) adult Japanese Shorthorn cattle by quantitative reverse‐transcribed PCR. Among the four MRFs, namely, Myf5, MyoD, myogenin, and MRF4, MyoD expression was different among the muscles of the DM cattle (P < 0.01) but not of the NM cattle. Meanwhile, MyoD expression was significantly elevated only in masseter (MS) muscle in the DM cattle due to the myostatin deficiency (P < 0.05). Myf5 and MRF4 expression in semitendinosus (ST) was higher in the DM than in the NM cattle (P < 0.05). According to analysis of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoform expression, more MyHC‐2x and ‐2a and less ‐slow isoforms were expressed in the longissimus and ST muscles compared to the MS muscle in both cattle (P < 0.05), but no significant difference in MyHC expression was observed between the NM and DM cattle. Taken together, myostatin has influences on Myf5 and MRF4 expression in faster‐type muscles and on MyoD expression in slower‐type muscles, suggesting a possible muscle type‐specific effect of myostatin in skeletal muscle growth and maintenance.  相似文献

Decorin, a small leucine‐rich proteoglycan, plays an important role in cellular activities through modification of growth factors. It also acts as a signaling molecule to non‐muscle cells through epidermal growth factor receptor or insulin‐like growth factor I receptor (IGF‐IR). However, it is unclear if decorin acts as a signaling molecule to myogenic cells. In this study, we investigated the effect of decorin on the differentiation of myoblasts and the signaling via IGF‐IR to myogenic cells. C2C12 myoblasts cultured in media containing decorin for 72 h showed more extensive formation of multinucleated myotubes than control cells cultured in the same media without decorin. The protein expressions of myogenin and myosin heavy chian were higher in decorn‐treated cells than in control cells. These results suggest that decorin enhances the differentiation of myoblasts. Western blot analysis and immunocytochemistry showed that IGF‐IR was expressed in myoblasts and myotubes. Furthermore, Akt, which is downstream of IGF‐IR, was more phosphorylated in myoblasts cultured in media containing decorin than those in media without decorin. These results suggest that decorin activates Akt downstream of IGF‐IR and enhances the differentiation of myogenic cells.  相似文献

To mimic muscle development of Duolang sheep in vitro,we employed a two-step digestion method to separate satellite cells（SCs）and a differential adhesion method to purify the cells in Duolang sheep.Moreover,observation of microscopic images and immunofluorescence were used for identifying Duolang sheep SCs and its myogenic differentiation.Using immunofluorescence for Desmin,Pax7 and MyoD1 genes,we demonstrated that these marker genes all expressed in the SCs.The SCs formed significant myotubes when the serum was withdrawal from growth media,confirmed by the immunofluorescence for MHC and microscopic images.Taken together,we ssuccessfully isolated SCs and established the myogenic differentiation of SCs.  相似文献

Myoblasts are myogenic precursors that develop into myotubes during muscle formation. Improving efficiency of myoblast differentiation is important for advancing meat production by domestic animals. We recently identified novel oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) termed myogenetic ODNs (myoDNs) that promote the differentiation of mammalian myoblasts. An isoquinoline alkaloid, berberine, forms a complex with one of the myoDNs, iSN04, and enhances its activities. This study investigated the effects of myoDNs on chicken myoblasts to elucidate their species-specific actions. Seven myoDNs (iSN01–iSN07) were found to facilitate the differentiation of chicken myoblasts into myosin heavy chain (MHC)-positive myotubes. The iSN04–berberine complex exhibited a higher myogenetic activity than iSN04 alone, which was shown to enhance the differentiation of myoblasts into myotubes and the upregulation of myogenic gene expression (MyoD, myogenin, MHC, and myomaker). These data indicate that myoDNs promoting chicken myoblast differentiation may be used as potential feed additives in broiler diets.  相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) have been shown to affect proliferation of several cell types via insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-dependent and IGF-independent mechanisms. The goal of this study was to determine if levels of IGFBP-2, -3, -4 and -5 mRNA changed during differentiation of cultured porcine embryonic myogenic cells. Total RNA was isolated from muscle cultures at various stages of differentiation and Northern blots of this RNA were probed with 32P-labeled cDNA probes specific for individual IGFBPs. Fusion, myogenin mRNA, and creatine phosphokinase activity were used as markers of differentiation. The level of IGFBP-3 mRNA in differentiating cultures (120 h in culture) was only one-third of the level in myogenin negative, nonfused cultures (72 h in culture) (P < 0.05, n = 4). In contrast, the level of IGFBP-3 mRNA in extensively fused cultures (144 h in culture) was increased by three-fold as compared to the level in myogenin negative, nonfused cultures (P < 0.05, n = 4) and approximately seven-fold as compared to the 120-h cultures (P < 0.05, n = 4). No significant change in the level of IGFBP-5 mRNA was observed during differentiation of myogenic cultures. IGFBP-2 mRNA levels were not significantly different at 72, 96 and 120 h, but at 144 h IGFBP-2 mRNA level was increased three-fold as compared to nonfused cultures (72 h) (P < 0.05, n = 4). IGFBP-4 mRNA was not detectable on Northern blots of total RNA from porcine myogenic cultures at any stage of differentiation. Changes in IGFBP-3 and IGFBP-2 mRNA levels are associated with differentiation of embryonic porcine myogenic cells in culture and this may indicate that these IGFBPs play a role in differentiation of these cells.  相似文献

Regenerative mechanisms that regulate intramuscular motor innervation. including configuration of the neuromuscular connections are thought to reside in the spatiotemporal expression of axon‐guidance molecules. 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 injected gastrocnemius muscle of adult mouse lower hind‐limb. Results clearly demonstrated that Sema3A expression was up‐regulated in myogenic differentiation‐positive satellite cells at 4–12 days post‐injury period, the time that corresponds to the cell differentiation phase characterized by increasing myogenin messenger RNA 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.  相似文献

The studies aimed at identification of neoplastic cells at the S phase of mitotic cycle in mammary gland adenocarcinomas of bitches. The material was sampled from bitches of various races, aging 6 to 12 years, in which the mammary gland tumours developed spontaneously. The tumours were verified histopathologically and, then, immunohistochemical reactions were performed in order to detect cells which had incorporated BrdU (bromodeoxyuridine), contained Ki-67 or PCNA antigen. The histological preparations were photographed and obtained pictures were subjected to computer-assisted image analysis using Axiophot microscope (Carl Zeiss) coupled to a computer and the Multi-ScaneBase V 8.08 software, working under Windows. Fifty percent of sections from mammary gland adenocarcinomas demonstrated BrdU labelling index of 4-5%, 40% of 1-3%, while in the remaining 10% of examined tumours no BrdU incorporation could be demonstrated. No evident relationship could be detected between the presence of BrdU incorporation and Ki-67 or PCNA antigen presence but a significant correlation was demonstrated between the expression of Ki-67 and PCNA.  相似文献
