摘要
Myogenic differentiation is a complex biological process that is regulated by multiple factors, among which long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an essential role. However, in-depth studies on the regulatory mechanisms of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in myogenic differentiation are limited. In this study, we characterized the role of the novel lncRNA TCONS_00323213, which is upregulated during porcine skeletal muscle satellite cell (PSC) differentiation in myogenesis. We found that TCONS_00323213 affected the proliferation and differentiation of PSC in vitro. We performed quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), 5-ethynyl-20-deoxyuridine (EdU), western blotting, immunofluorescence staining, pull-down assays, and cleavage under targets and tagmentation (CUT and Tag) assays to clarify the effects and action mechanisms of TCONS_00323213. LncRNA TCONS_00323213 inhibited myoblast proliferation based on analyses of cell survival rates during PSC proliferation. Functional analyses revealed that TCONS_00323213 promotes cell differentiation and enhances myogenin (MyoG), myosin heavy chain (MyHC), and myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2C) during myoblast differentiation. As determined by pull-down and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assays, the lncRNA TCONS_00323213 interacted with PBX/Knotted Homeobox 2 (PKNOX2). CUT and Tag assays showed that PKNOX2 was significantly enriched on the MyoG promoter after lncRNA TCONS_00323213 knockdown. Our findings demonstrate that the interaction between lncRNA TCONS_00323213 and PKNOX2 relieves the inhibitory effect of PKNOX2 on the MyoG promoter, increases its expression, and promotes PSC differentiation. This novel role of lncRNA TCONS_00323213 sheds light on the molecular mechanisms by which lncRNAs regulate porcine myogenesis.
