Muscle-Bound Primordial Stem Cells Give Rise to Myofiber-Associated Myogenic and Non-Myogenic Progenitors

چکیده
Myofiber cultures give rise to myogenic as well as to non-myogenic cells. Whether these myofiber-associated non-myogenic cells develop from resident stem cells that possess mesenchymal plasticity or from other stem cells such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) remain unsolved. To address this question, we applied a method for reconstructing cell lineage trees from somatic mutations to MSCs and myogenic and non-myogenic cells from individual myofibers that were cultured at clonal density.Our analyses show that (i) in addition to myogenic progenitors, myofibers also harbor non-myogenic progenitors of a distinct, yet close, lineage; (ii) myofiber-associated non-myogenic and myogenic cells share the same muscle-bound primordial stem cells of a lineage distinct from bone marrow MSCs; (iii) these muscle-bound primordial stem-cells first part to individual muscles and then differentiate into myogenic and non-myogenic stem cells.

Embryonic and fetal limb myogenic cells are derived from developmentally distinct progenitors and have different requirements for beta-catenin.
Vertebrate muscle arises sequentially from embryonic, fetal, and adult myoblasts. Although functionally distinct, it is unclear whether these myoblast classes develop from common or different progenitors. Pax3 and Pax7 are expressed by somitic myogenic progenitors and are critical myogenic determinants. To test the developmental origin of embryonic and fetal myogenic cells in the limb, we genet...
متن کاملExpansion and Purification Are Critical for the Therapeutic Application of Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Myogenic Progenitors
Recent reports have documented the differentiation of human pluripotent stem cells toward the skeletal myogenic lineage using transgene- and cell purification-free approaches. Although these protocols generate myocytes, they have not demonstrated scalability, safety, and in vivo engraftment, which are key aspects for their future clinical application. Here we recapitulate one prominent protocol...
متن کاملSkeletal muscle satellite cells can spontaneously enter an alternative mesenchymal pathway.
We show that muscle satellite cells, traditionally considered as committed myogenic precursors, are comprised of Pax7-expressing progenitors that preserve a mesenchymal repertoire extending beyond a mere myogenic potential. Mouse satellite cells from freshly isolated single myofibers, cultured individually in serum-rich growth medium, produced myogenic and non-myogenic clones. Only the myogenic...
متن کاملHuman fetal skeletal muscle contains a myogenic side population that expresses the melanoma cell-adhesion molecule.
Muscle side population (SP) cells are rare myogenic progenitors distinct from satellite cells, the known tissue-specific stem cells of skeletal muscle. Studies in mice demonstrated that muscle SP cells give rise to satellite cells in vivo. Given that muscle SP cells are heterogeneous, it has been difficult to prospectively enrich for myogenic progenitors within the SP fraction, particularly fro...

Skeletal muscle development has been the focus of intensive study for many decades. Recent advances in genetic manipulation of the mouse have increased our understanding of the cell signalling involved in the development of muscle progenitors which give rise to adult skeletal muscles and their stem cell populations. However, the influence of a vital tissue type - the peripheral nerve-has largel...
