A growing interest for epigenetics involvement in guiding muscle differentiation raised the attention on epi-modulators as pivotal regulators in this process. Our in vitro study aimed to investigate the potential effects of Remodelin in muscle differentiation. Remodelin is the inhibitor of N-acetyltransferase 10, the key-player of RNA acetylation. We used the well-consolidated model of murine C2C12 cells cultivated on ultra-compliant gelatin hydrogels for long-term studies. The newly developed hydrogel scaffold promotes myotube alignment and maturation, mimicking the skeletal muscle biology observed in vivo. We differentiated C2C12 cells in low-serum conditions up to 16 days and treated them with the epi-drug Remodelin. At day 7 of differentiation, confocal images revealed that Remodelin prompted a lack of organization, proper morphology, and maturation of myotubes compared to the control. Marked twitching was neither visible upon Remodelin treatment, even in the late stage of differentiation. Remodelin downregulated the expression of protein markers of differentiation, but without any significant epi-modulation. Both transcriptomics and proteomics analyses confirmed that Remodelin effectively slowed down the process of myotube formation. RNAseq analysis revealed that the epi-drug down-regulated 749 genes, predominantly encoding proteins involved in muscle contraction, sarcomere organization, muscle structure development, and calcium ion binding. Proteomics analysis further unveiled that 37 significantly down-regulated proteins were related to extracellular matrix, cell-matrix adhesion, positive regulation of muscle cell differentiation, and calcium ion binding. Taken together, these results suggest that Remodelin exerts a broad effect on the regulatory networks of skeletal muscle differentiation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":19135,"journal":{"name":"Neuromuscular Disorders","volume":"43 ","pages":"Article 104441.80"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142423230","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study is to compare the medical, quality of life and economic data for SMA patients diagnosed by NBS and those identified by symptoms, in the same country, during the same time period. We collected data on all SMA patients born in Flanders and the Wallonia-Brussels Federation (FWB) between January 1, 2019 (the date on which the entire FWB began screening for SMA) and 30 November 2022 (the date on which Flanders began screening). We compared the median age of diagnosis and initiation of treatment, the treatment, scores on motor development scales, and the age of acquisition of sitting and walking. We also collected quality of life data for parents, utility data for children, and costs associated with the disease. A total of 30 patients were included in the analysis: 16 patients in FWB (7 with 2 SMN2 copies, 4 with 3 copies and 5 with 4 copies) and 13 in Flanders. One patient with a point mutation was not identified by NBS in FWB. Patients in FWB were initially treated by nusinersen (n = 5) risdiplam (n = 3) and onasemnogene abeparvovec (n = 7) at 36 days of life on average (29, 37, and 44 days respectively for patients with 2, 3 and 4 SMN2 copies of SMN2). Two patients shifted from nusinersen to risdiplam, one from nusinersen to onasemnogene abeparvovec and one from risdiplam to onasemnogene abeparvovec. One patient with 4 SMN2 copies was still untreated at 26 months. Median follow up was 32 months (9-54 months). All patients over 18 months with 3 and 4 SMN2 copies acquired ambulation (median age: 17 months, 13-24 months). Of the 7 patients with 2 SMN2 copies, 2 are not yet 18 months old, 4 are walking, and one aged 24 months is not yet walking. One child with 2 SMN2 copies have non-invasive nocturnal ventilation. None of the children needed nutritional support at the time of the last follow-up.

Our data shows that middle term outcome of patients identified by NBS is very good so far.
