Article Abstract
Muscle satellite cells (SCs) are responsible for muscle homeostasis and regeneration and lncRNAs play important roles in regulating SC activities. Here, in this study, we identify PAM (Pax7 Associated Muscle lncRNA) that is induced in activated/proliferating SCs upon injury to promote SC proliferation as myoblast cells. PAM is generated from a myoblast-specific super-enhancer (SE); as a seRNA it binds with a number of target genomic loci predominantly in trans. Further studies demonstrate that it interacts with Ddx5 to tether PAM SE to its inter-chromosomal targets Timp2 and Vim to activate the gene expression. Lastly, we show that PAM expression is increased in aging SCs, which leads to enhanced inter-chromosomal interaction and target genes upregulation. Altogether, our findings identify PAM as a previously unknown lncRNA that regulates both SC proliferation and aging through its trans gene regulatory activity.

Prenatal and postnatal skeletal muscle development in ruminants is coordinated by interactions between genetic, nutritional, epigenetic, and endocrine factors. This review focuses on the influence of maternal nutrition during gestation on fetal myogenesis, satellite cell dynamics, and myogenic regulatory factors expression, including , , and . Studies in sheep and cattle indicate that nutrient restriction or overnutrition alters muscle fiber number, the cross-sectional area, and the transcriptional regulation of myogenic genes in offspring.

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a key myogenic stem cell (satellite cells) activator, that resides in the extracellular matrix (ECM). However, HGF distribution in the ECM varies depending on the muscle fiber type. Furthermore, aging impedes the binding of HGF to its receptors owing to nitration by peroxynitrite (ONOO-).

Muscle stem cells, or satellite cells (SCs), decline in number throughout the lifespan and may become senescent in very old age. Whether and how remaining SCs contribute to muscle adaptation in the oldest-old is unclear. Using acute mechanical overload in geriatric SC replete and depleted mice (28-month-old) combined with single-cell RNA-sequencing, we show: (i) subsets of geriatric SCs display signs of senescence as well as normal fate progression during overload, (ii) SCs express markers that may contribute to the regulation of innervation, (iii) the presence of SCs during overload enhances global intercellular communication and increases mRNA levels of the cell surface receptor in immune cells, (iv) macrophage migration inhibitory factor (), the primary ligand for CD74, is enriched in fibrogenic cells and is more pronounced in the absence of SCs-perhaps to normalize dysregulated fibrotic signaling and migration in macrophages, and (v) SCs influence cell fate dynamics to promote the canonical macrophage response to hypertrophic loading.

Skeletal muscle satellite cells ( SCs), essential for muscle regeneration, are a valuable model for studying exercise-induced stress relevant to human athletes. This study examined the effects of two natural compounds-chlorogenic acid (CGA) and isovanillic acid 3-O-sulfate (IVAS)-increasingly recognized as components of modern, nature-based recovery strategies. Their combination (Hybrid) was also tested on equine model of skeletal muscle satellite cells (ESCs) exposed to heat shock (40 °C, 1 h), mimicking exercise stress.

Satellite cells are muscle stem cells that contribute to post-hatch muscle growth by fusing with adjacent muscle fibers, thereby promoting muscle fiber hypertrophy. Satellite cells are not a uniform population; even within a single muscle, such as the turkey pectoralis major, they exhibit substantial variability in their proliferative capacity. To better understand this cellular heterogeneity, we performed transcriptomic profiling of individual satellite cell clones isolated from the same turkey pectoralis major muscle after 48 hours of differentiation.
