Implication

Should not change clinical practice in RYR1 disorders; hypothesis-generating for Ca2+-dependent muscle development.

Structured PICO

P
Population
8 mouse fetuses (4 homozygous dyspedic and 4 heterozygous controls) at embryonic day 18.5 were analyzed to determine the transcriptomic effects of lacking functional RYR1.
E
Exposure
Absence of functional RYR1 (homozygous dyspedic mutation)
C
Comparator
Heterozygous control littermates
O
Outcome
Differentially expressed genes in fore- and hind limb skeletal musclesurrogate

The absence of RYR1-mediated Ca2+ signaling during embryogenesis leads to significant transcriptional dysregulation of genes involved in skeletal muscle development and structure.

Limitations

  • Data refer only to embryonic muscle at a single developmental stage (E18.5)
  • Cannot fully separate the effects of ablation of mechanotransduction from RyR1-dependent Ca2+ signaling

Cite This Study

Filipova et al. (2016) studied RYR1 deficiency (dyspedic mouse model) (n=8). RYR1 knockout (dyspedic mutation) vs. Heterozygous control littermates was evaluated on Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in limb skeletal muscle. Absence of the RYR1 Ca2+ release channel in dyspedic mouse embryos resulted in 318 differentially expressed genes in skeletal muscle, affecting major signaling pathways and muscle development.
