Background/Aims: Skeletal muscle plays an essential role in the body movement. However, injuries to the skeletal muscle are common. Lifelong maintenance of skeletal muscle function largely depends on preserving the regenerative capacity of muscle. Muscle satellite cells proliferation, differentiation, and myoblast fusion play an important role in muscle regeneration after injury. Therefore, understanding of the mechanisms associated with muscle development during muscle regeneration is essential for devising the alternative treatments for muscle injury in the future. Methods: Edu staining, qRT-PCR and western blot were used to evaluate the miR-27b effects on pig muscle satellite cells (PSCs) proliferation and differentiation in vitro. Then, we used bioinformatics analysis and dual-luciferase reporter assay to predict and confirm the miR-27b target gene. Finally, we elucidate the target gene function on muscle development in vitro and in vivo through Edu staining, qRT-PCR, western blot, H&E staining and morphological observation. Result: miR-27b inhibits PSCs proliferation and promotes PSCs differentiation. And the miR-27b target gene, MDFI, promotes PSCs proliferation and inhibits PSCs differentiation in vitro. Furthermore, interfering MDFI expression promotes mice muscle regeneration after injury. Conclusion: our results conclude that miR-27b promotes PSCs myogenesis by targeting MDFI. These results expand our understanding of muscle development mechanism in which miRNAs and genes work collaboratively in regulating skeletal muscle development. Furthermore, this finding has implications for obtaining the alternative treatments for patients with the muscle injury.

ABSTRACTSkeletal muscle satellite cells (SCs) are adult muscle stem cells responsible for injury induced muscle regeneration. Despite advances in the knowledge of molecular mechanisms regulating SC lineage progression, our understanding of key transcription factors (TFs) and their regulatory functions in SCs in particularly the quiescent and early activation stages remains incomplete due to the lack of efficient method to screen and investigate the stage-specific key TFs. In this study, we succeeded in defining a distinct list of key TFs in early stages of SC fate transition using the paradigm of super enhancers (SEs). Particularly, leveraging the Cre-dependent Cas9 knockin mice and AAV9 mediated sgRNAs delivery, we generated a facile muscle specific genome editing system which allows gene depletion in SCs in vivo. Using MyoD locus as a proof of concept, we demonstrated that this CRISPR/Cas9/AAV9-sgRNA system can efficiently introduce mutagenesis at target locus and recapture the phenotypes reported in knockout mice. Further application of the system on key TFs, Myc, Bcl6 and Pknox2, revealed their distinct functions in the early stage of SC activation and damage induced muscle regeneration. Altogether our findings have proven the CRISPR/Cas9/AAV9-sgRNA system as a robust way for in vivo genome editing and elucidation of key factors governing SC activities.
