Cellular and Molecular Regulation of Muscle Regeneration

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells which can give rise to mesenchymal and non-mesenchymal tissues in vitro and in vivo. Whereas in vitro properties such as (trans)differentiation capabilities are well known, there is little information regarding natural distribution and biology in the living organism. To investigate the subject further, we generated long-term cultures of cells with mesenchymal stem cell characteristics from different organs and tissues from adult mice. These populations have morphology, immunophenotype and growth properties similar to bone marrow-derived MSCs. The differentiation potential was related to the tissue of origin. The results indicate that (1) cells with mesenchymal stem characteristics can be derived and propagated in vitro from different organs and tissues (brain, spleen, liver, kidney, lung, bone marrow, muscle, thymus, pancreas); (2) MSC long-term cultures can be generated from large blood vessels such as the aorta artery and the vena cava, as well as from small vessels such as those from kidney glomeruli; (3) MSCs are not detected in peripheral blood. Taken together, these results suggest that the distribution of MSCs throughout the post-natal organism is related to their existence in a perivascular niche. These findings have implications for understanding MSC biology, and for clinical and pharmacological purposes.

Satellite Cells and the Muscle Stem Cell Niche

Efficient tissue regeneration is dependent on the coordinated responses of multiple cell types. Here, we describe a new subpopulation of fibro/adipogenic progenitors (FAPs) resident in muscle tissue but arising from a distinct developmental lineage. Transplantation of purified FAPs results in the generation of ectopic white fat when delivered subcutaneously or intramuscularly in a model of fatty infiltration, but not in healthy muscle, suggesting that the environment controls their engraftment. These cells are quiescent in intact muscle but proliferate efficiently in response to damage. FAPs do not generate myofibres, but enhance the rate of differentiation of primary myogenic progenitors in co-cultivation experiments. In summary, FAPs expand upon damage to provide a transient source of pro-differentiation signals for proliferating myogenic progenitors.

Muscle injury activates resident fibro/adipogenic progenitors that facilitate myogenesis

We assessed viable Pax7−/− mice in 129Sv/J background and observed reduced growth and marked muscle wasting together with a complete absence of functional satellite cells. Acute injury resulted in an extreme deficit in muscle regeneration. However, a small number of regenerated myofibers were detected, suggesting the presence of residual myogenic cells in Pax7-deficient muscle. Rare Pax3+/MyoD+ myoblasts were recovered from Pax7−/− muscle homogenates and cultures of myofiber bundles but not from single myofibers free of interstitial tissues. Finally, we identified Pax3+ cells in the muscle interstitial environment and demonstrated that they coexpressed MyoD during regeneration. Sublaminar satellite cells in hind limb muscle did not express detectable levels of Pax3 protein or messenger RNA. Therefore, we conclude that interstitial Pax3+ cells represent a novel myogenic population that is distinct from the sublaminar satellite cell lineage and that Pax7 is essential for the formation of functional myogenic progenitors from sublaminar satellite cells.

To investigate the cause of skeletal muscle weakening during aging we examined the sequence of cellular changes in murine muscles. Satellite cells isolated from single muscle fibers terminally differentiate progressively less well with increasing age of donor. This change is detected before decline in satellite cell numbers and all histological changes examined here. In MSVski transgenic mice, which show type IIb fiber hypertrophy, initial muscle weakness is followed by muscle degeneration in the first year of life. This degeneration is accompanied by a spectrum of changes typical of normal muscle aging and a more marked decline in satellite cell differentiation efficiency. On a myoD-null genetic background, in which satellite cell differentiation is defective, the MSVski muscle phenotype is aggravated. This suggests that, on a wild-type genetic background, satellite cells are capable of repairing MSVski fibers and preserving muscle integrity in early life. We propose that decline in myogenic cell differentiation efficiency is an early event in aging-related loss of muscle function, both in normal aging and in some late-onset muscle degenerative conditions.

Aging-related satellite cell differentiation defect occurs prematurely after Ski-induced muscle hypertrophy.

Pancreatic islet amyloid, formed from islet amyloid polypeptide, is found in 96% of Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic patients. Islet amyloidosis is progressive and apparently irreversible. Fibrils immunoreactive for islet amyloid polypeptide are found in macrophages associated with amyloid, suggesting that deposits can be phagocytosed. To determine the mechanism for the recognition and internalisation of fibrils, mouse peritoneal macrophages were cultured with fibrillar synthetic human islet amyloid polypeptide. Fibrils did not exert a cytotoxic effect over 72 h of culture. The uptake and degradation of fibrils was analysed by quantitative light-and electron-microscopic immunocytochemistry and immunoreactivity was detectable in 86±3% cells within 6 h of culture. Neither polyinosinic acid (200 µg/ml) nor nocodazole (10 µg/ml) inhibited fibril uptake, suggesting that internalisation is not blocked by poly-ions and is independent of microtubule assembly. Inhibition of pseudopodia formation by cytochalasin B blocked fibriI uptake. Fibril aggregates became condensed in lysosomes to form protofilaments and were resistant to intracellular proteolysis. Fibrils can be phagocytosed by macrophages in vitro but amyloid-associated factors may block the recognition of fibrils in vivo preventing the removal of islet amyloid in diabetes.

Fibrillar islet amyloid polypeptide (amylin) is internalised by macrophages but resists proteolytic degradation.

Islet amyloid formed from islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP, amylin) is found in spontaneously diabetic monkeys and cats. Islet amyloidosis is progressive, apparently irreversible and is associated with destruction of insulin-secreting cells. The role of macrophages in the destruction and removal of islet amyloid is unknown. Therefore, the presence and morphology of macrophages were determined by electron and quantitative light microscopy in islets of diabetic and nondiabetic man and monkeys and in transgenic mice expressing the gene for human IAPP. Tissue macrophages were present in all pancreatic sections and tissue distribution was similar in exocrine and endocrine areas. There was no difference in macrophage density in amyloidotic and amyloid-free islets in monkeys and man. Macrophage density was similar in islets of transgenic mice expressing human IAPP which do not contain amyloid in vivo but in which fibrils are formed in vitro following islet isolation compared to islets from mice expressing rat IAP...
