This study demonstrated that PDLIM5 can promote proliferation and differentiation of chicken skeletal muscle satellite cells through the p38-MAPK pathway. These findings suggest that PDLIM5 may play a role in the growth and development of chicken skeletal muscle.
Simple Summary PDZ and LIM domain 5 (PDLIM5) can increase C2C12 cell differentiation; however, the role of PDLIM5 in chicken skeletal muscle satellite cells (SMSCs) is unclear. In this study, the effect of PDLIM5 was verified on SMSCs in vitro, and then the molecular mechanism was determined by transcriptome sequencing. We demonstrated that PDLIM5 can positively affect chicken SMSC proliferation and differentiation via the p38-MAPK (mitogen activated kinase-like protein) pathway. These results indicate that PDLIM5 may be involved in chicken skeletal muscle growth and development. Skeletal muscle satellite cell growth and development is a complicated process driven by multiple genes. The PDZ and LIM domain 5 (PDLIM5) gene has been proven to function in C2C12 myoblast differentiation and is involved in the regulation of skeletal muscle development. The role of PDLIM5 in chicken skeletal muscle satellite cells, however, is unclear. In this study, in order to determine whether the PDLIM5 gene has a function in chicken skeletal muscle satellite cells, we examined the changes in proliferation and differentiation of chicken skeletal muscle satellite cells (SMSCs) after interfering and overexpressing PDLIM5 in cells. In addition, the molecular pathways of the PDLIM5 gene regulating SMSC proliferation and differentiation were analyzed by transcriptome sequencing. Our results show that PDLIM5 can promote the proliferation and differentiation of SMSCs; furthermore, through transcriptome sequencing, it can be found that the differential genes are enriched in the MAPK signaling pathway after knocking down PDLIM5. Finally, it was verified that PDLIM5 played an active role in the proliferation and differentiation of chicken SMSCs by activating the p38-MAPK signaling pathway. These results indicate that PDLIM5 may be involved in the growth and development of chicken skeletal muscle.
