Syndecan-1 Expression Inhibits Myoblast Differentiation through a Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor-dependent Mechanism

Juan LarraínDagger , David J. Carey, and Enrique BrandanDagger

From the Dagger  Department of Cell and Molecular Biology, Faculty of Biological Sciences, Catholic University of Chile, Santiago, Chile and  Henry Hood M.D. Research Program, Sigfried and Janet Weis Center for Research, Pennsylvania State College of Medicine, Danville, Pennsylvania 17822-2613

Expression of syndecan-1, a cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan, is down-regulated during skeletal muscle differentiation (Larraín, J., Cizmeci-Smith, G., Troncoso, V., Stahl, R. C., Carey, D. J., and Brandan, E. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 18418-18424). We examined the role of syndecan-1 in basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-dependent inhibition of myogenesis. C2C12 myoblasts were stably transfected with an expression plasmid containing the rat syndecan-1 coding region cDNA. Constitutive syndecan-1 expression resulted in a strongly diminished capacity of the transfected clones to differentiate and to express skeletal muscle-specific markers such as fusion, creatine kinase, and myosin. The expression of myogenin, a master transcription factor for muscle differentiation, was also reduced and delayed. Analysis of the induction of a myogenin promoter-driven reporter revealed that syndecan-1 expression resulted in a 6-7-fold increase in sensitivity to bFGF-dependent inhibition of myogenin expression. Transfecting the cells with a plasmid containing myogenin cDNA reversed the inhibition of myogenin transcriptional activation and myosin expression in syndecan-1-transfected cells; however, cell fusion was not observed. These results demonstrate that syndecan-1 expression enhances cell responsiveness to bFGF and inhibits myoblast fusion and suggest that muscle terminal differentiation is regulated by syndecan-1 expression.
