ABSTRACT
Alcohol misuse in people with HIV (PWH) and chronic binge alcohol (CBA) administration in simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)-infected macaques are associated with increased physical frailty and impaired functional skeletal muscle mass, respectively. Previous studies by our group demonstrate that muscle-enriched microRNAs (myomiRs) are differentially expressed in skeletal muscle (SKM) from CBA-administered SIV-infected male macaques and their altered expression contributes to impaired differentiation of SKM stem cells, or myoblasts. MicroRNAs can be transported in extracellular vesicles (EVs) to mediate numerous cellular responses through intercellular communication. The current study tested the hypothesis that EV-mediated delivery of miR-206 can ameliorate CBA-mediated decreased myoblast differentiation. Myoblasts were isolated from SKM of female SIV-infected, antiretroviral therapy-treated macaques that received either CBA (2.5g/kg/day, CBA/SIV) or water (VEH/SIV) for 14.5 months. Myotube and myotube derived EV myomiR expression, including miR-206, was lower in the CBA/SIV group. Overexpression of miR-206 decreased histone deacetylase 4 (HDAC4) and paired box 7 (PAX7) expression in myotubes and increased fusion index, a differentiation index, in CBA/SIV-derived myotubes. Similarly, EV-mediated delivery of miR-206 increased both fusion index and myotube density of CBA/SIV-derived myoblasts. These results support the potential therapeutic utility of EVs in delivering myomiRs to improve SKM stem cell differentiation.
