Abstract

HnRNPK, a prominent member of the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) family, is widely expressed in mammalian tissues and plays a crucial role in animal development. Despite its well-established functions, limited information is available regarding its role in skeletal muscle development and regeneration. To elucidate the functional role of hnRNPK in skeletal muscle, we utilized Pax7CreER; HnrnpkLoxP/LoxP (Hnrnpk pKO) mice as a model, isolated primary mouse skeletal muscle satellite cells (MuSCs), and induced hnRNPK knockout using 4-OTH. Transcriptome sequencing was performed on four distinct groups: Hnrnpk pKO MuSCs undergoing proliferation for 24 h (ethanol 24 h) and 48 h (ethanol 48 h) after treatment with ethanol as the control, as well as Hnrnpk pKO MuSCs undergoing proliferation for 24 h (4-OHT 24 h) and 48 h (4-OHT 48 h) after treatment with 4-OHT as the hnRNPK-induced knockout group. The RNA sequencing data was generated using the Illumina HiSeq 2000/2500 sequencing platform. The raw data files have been archived in the Sequence Read Archive at the China National Center for Bioinformation (CNCB) under the accession number CRA015864. This data article is related to the research paper “Deletion of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K in satellite cells leads to inhibited skeletal muscle regeneration in mice, Genes & Diseases 11: 101,062, DOI: 10.1016/j.gendis.2023.06.031”.
