AB  - In contrast to humans, zebrafish have a remarkable ability to regenerate their hearts after injury, while both humans and zebrafish efficiently repair the wounded skeletal muscle. Common players in these two processes might represent potential targets for the development of efficient therapies to stimulate human heart to regenerate after injury. We identified ankrd1a expression to be upregulated in both regenerating zebrafish hearts and in repairing skeletal muscle. Its mammalian homolog ANKRD1/CARP encodes a stress responsive cardiac ankyrin repeat protein involved in transcriptional regulation, sarcomere assembly and mechanosensing. Using a TgBAC(ankrd1a:EGFP) line, we showed that activation of ankrd1a in cryoinjured heart is restricted to border zone cardiomyocytes, implicating this gene in dedifferentiation and proliferation of regenerating cardiomyocytes. After stab wound injury of skeletal muscle expression of the fluorescent reporter was observed from 3 dpi, when new EGFP-positive muscle cells emerged inside the injury zone. At later time points, EGFP-positive myofibers were visible in the deeper tissue layers, concomitant with active repair of the injured tissue. In cryoinjured skeletal muscle, strong activation of ankrd1a was also observed in myofibers adjacent to the injury, and in those on uninjured side. Detection of the transgene in both newly formed myofibers that invade the wound and in the apparently uninjured tissue surrounding the injury suggests the role of ankrd1a in skeletal muscle tissue repair and adaptive processes in uninjured myofibers surrounding the injury site. Our results implicate ankrd1a in zebrafish muscle regeneration, repair and remodeling, promoting it as an attractive target for translational studies, as a player in muscle healing and as a sensor of stressed muscle.
