- W2904008098 abstract "Abstract Splicing aberrations induced as a consequence of the sequestration of MBNL splicing factors on the DMPK transcript, which contains expanded CUG repeats, present a major pathomechanism of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). As MBNLs may also be important factors involved in the biogenesis of circular RNAs (circRNAs), we hypothesized that the level of circRNAs would be decreased in DM1. To test this hypothesis, we selected twenty well-validated circRNAs and analyzed their levels in several experimental systems (e.g., cell lines, DM muscle tissues, and a mouse model of DM1) using droplet digital PCR assays. We also explored the global level of circRNAs using two RNA-Seq datasets of DM1 muscle samples. Contrary to our original hypothesis, our results consistently showed a global increase in circRNA levels in DM1 and we identified numerous circRNAs that were increased in DM1. We also identified many genes (including muscle-specific genes) giving rise to numerous (>10) circRNAs. Thus, this study is the first to show an increase in global circRNA levels in DM1. We also provided preliminary results showing the association of circRNA level with muscle weakness and alternative splicing changes that are biomarkers of DM1 severity. Author Summary Recently, a great deal of interest has been focused on a new class of RNA molecules called circular RNAs (circRNAs). To date, thousands of circRNAs have been found in different human cells/tissues. Although the function of circRNAs remains mostly unknown, circRNAs have emerged as an important component of the RNA-RNA and RNA-protein interactome. Thus, intensive efforts are being made to fully understand the biology and function of circRNAs, especially their role in human diseases. As an important role in the biogenesis of circRNA may be played by MBNL splicing factors, in this study we used DM1 (to a lesser extent, DM2) as a natural model in which the level of MBNLs is decreased. In contrast to the expected effect, our results consistently showed a global increase in circRNA levels in DM1. As a consequence, whole genome transcriptome analysis revealed dozens of circRNAs with significantly altered (mostly increased) levels in DM1. Furthermore, we observed that the circRNA levels were in many cases strongly associated with DM1 severity." @default.
