Chicken fast-muscle type (F-type) troponin T (TnT) isoforms are classified into two types, leg-muscle type (L-type) and breast-muscle type (B-type), which are generated by exclusion and inclusion of exon x series-derived sequences in mRNAs, respectively. The B-type isoforms are further classified into neonatal breast-muscle (BN), young chicken breast-muscle (BC), and adult chicken breast-muscle (BA) subtypes. It is known that the multiple F-type TnT isoforms are transiently expressed in the breast muscle tissue during normal development. To examine whether the transition of the isoforms was fixed in muscle cell lineage, breast muscle pieces (pectoralis major) of 1-day old chicks were cultured under gizzard serous membrane of the same chicks for 60 days at the longest. TnT isoform expression of the implants was monitored by immunoblotting and immunostaining using anti-F-type TnT against both L-type and B-type isoforms, anti-exon x3 against only B-type isoforms, and anti-S-type TnT against slow-muscle-type (S-type) isoforms. Muscle fibers in the implant degenerated first, and then new myotubes expressing L-type isoforms were formed by the fusion of myoblasts from surviving satellite cells. When the maturation of the myotubes into myofibers proceeded, BN-, BC-, and BA-subtype isoforms were expressed in the order of developmental stage specific-manner, indicating that the order of appearance of these isoforms was fixed in muscle cell lineage. In immunostaining of the implants recovered on the 60th day after implantation, at least three kinds of the regenerated myofibers were observed, expressing mainly B-type, both B-type and L-type, and only L-type isoforms. The immunohistochemical results suggested that the regulation of alternative splicing of F-type TnT pre-mRNAs was different among individual myofibers, and that the regulation was programmed in myogenic cells, probably satellite cells, which were the primary source of the fibers.
