Cachexia is commonly seen in cancer and ischaracterized by severe muscle wasting, but little is known about theeffect of cancer cachexia on expression of contractile protein isoforms such as myosin. Other causes of muscle atrophy shift expression ofmyosin isoforms toward increased fast (type II) isoform expression. Weinjected mice with murine C-26 adenocarcinoma cells, a tumor cell linethat has been shown to cause muscle wasting. Mice were killed 21 daysafter tumor injection, and hindlimb muscles were removed. Myosin heavychain (MHC) and myosin light chain (MLC) content was determined inmuscle homogenates by SDS-PAGE. Body weight was significantly lower intumor-bearing (T) mice. There was a significant decrease in muscle massin all three muscles tested compared with control, with the largestdecrease occurring in the soleus. Although no type IIb MHC was detectedin the soleus samples from control mice, type IIb comprised 19% of thetotal MHC in T soleus. Type I MHC was significantly decreased in T vs. control soleus muscle. MHC isoform content was not significantly different from control in plantaris and gastrocnemius muscles. Thesedata are the first to show a change in myosin isoform expression accompanying muscle atrophy during cancer cachexia. 相似文献

Many diseases are associated with catabolic conditions that induce skeletal muscle wasting. These various catabolic states may have similar and distinct mechanisms for inducing muscle protein loss. Mechanisms related to muscle wasting may also be related to muscle metabolism since glycolytic muscle fibers have greater wasting susceptibility with several diseases. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between muscle oxidative capacity and muscle mass loss in red and white hindlimb muscles during cancer cachexia development in the Apc(Min/+) mouse. Gastrocnemius and soleus muscles were excised from Apc(Min/+) mice at 20 wk of age. The gastrocnemius muscle was partitioned into red and white portions. Body mass (-20%), gastrocnemius muscle mass (-41%), soleus muscle mass (-34%), and epididymal fat pad (-100%) were significantly reduced in severely cachectic mice (n = 8) compared with mildly cachectic mice (n = 6). Circulating IL-6 was fivefold higher in severely cachectic mice. Cachexia significantly reduced the mitochondrial DNA-to-nuclear DNA ratio in both red and white portions of the gastrocnemius. Cytochrome c and cytochrome-c oxidase complex subunit IV (Cox IV) protein were reduced in all three muscles with severe cachexia. Changes in muscle oxidative capacity were not associated with altered myosin heavy chain expression. PGC-1α expression was suppressed by cachexia in the red and white gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. Cachexia reduced Mfn1 and Mfn2 mRNA expression and markers of oxidative stress, while Fis1 mRNA was increased by cachexia in all muscle types. Muscle oxidative capacity, mitochondria dynamics, and markers of oxidative stress are reduced in both oxidative and glycolytic muscle with severe wasting that is associated with increased circulating IL-6 levels. 相似文献

Cancer-induced muscle wasting, i.e. cachexia, is associated with different types of cancer such as pancreatic, colorectal, lung, liver, gastric and esophageal. Cachexia affects prognosis and survival in cancer, and it is estimated that it will be the ultimate cause of death for up to 30% of cancer patients. Musculoskeletal alterations are known hallmarks of cancer cachexia, with skeletal muscle atrophy and weakness as the most studied. Recent evidence has shed light on the presence of bone loss in cachectic patients, even in the absence of bone-metastatic disease. In particular, we and others have shown that muscle and bone communicate by exchanging paracrine and endocrine factors, known as myokines and osteokines. This review will focus on describing the role of the most studied myokines, such as myostatin, irisin, the muscle metabolite β-aminoisobutyric acid, BAIBA, and IL-6, and osteokines, including TGF-β, osteocalcin, sclerostin, RANKL, PTHrP, FGF23, and the lipid mediator, PGE2 during cancer-induced cachexia. The interplay of muscle and bone factors, together with tumor-derived soluble factors, characterizes a complex clinical scenario in which musculoskeletal alterations are amongst the most debilitating features. Understanding and targeting the “secretome” of cachectic patients will likely represent a promising strategy to preserve bone and muscle during cancer cachexia thereby enhancing recovery. 相似文献

Novel experimental methods, including a modified single fiber in vitro motility assay, X‐ray diffraction experiments, and mass spectrometry analyses, have been performed to unravel the molecular events underlying the aging‐related impairment in human skeletal muscle function at the motor protein level. The effects of old age on the function of specific myosin isoforms extracted from single human muscle fiber segments, demonstrated a significant slowing of motility speed (P < 0.001) in old age in both type I and IIa myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms. The force‐generating capacity of the type I and IIa MyHC isoforms was, on the other hand, not affected by old age. Similar effects were also observed when the myosin molecules extracted from muscle fibers were exposed to oxidative stress. X‐ray diffraction experiments did not show any myofilament lattice spacing changes, but unraveled a more disordered filament organization in old age as shown by the greater widths of the 1, 0 equatorial reflections. Mass spectrometry (MS) analyses revealed eight age‐specific myosin post‐translational modifications (PTMs), in which two were located in the motor domain (carbonylation of Pro79 and Asn81) and six in the tail region (carbonylation of Asp900, Asp904, and Arg908; methylation of Glu1166; deamidation of Gln1164 and Asn1168). However, PTMs in the motor domain were only observed in the IIx MyHC isoform, suggesting PTMs in the rod region contributed to the observed disordering of myosin filaments and the slowing of motility speed. Hence, interventions that would specifically target these PTMs are warranted to reverse myosin dysfunction in old age. 相似文献

Background
Cachexia is a wasting condition that manifests in several types of cancer, and the main characteristic is the profound loss of muscle mass.Methods
The Yoshida AH-130 tumor model has been used and the samples have been analyzed using transmission electronic microscopy, real-time PCR and Western blot techniques.Results
Using in vivo cancer cachectic model in rats, here we show that skeletal muscle loss is accompanied by fiber morphologic alterations such as mitochondrial disruption, dilatation of sarcoplasmic reticulum and apoptotic nuclei. Analyzing the expression of some factors related to proteolytic and thermogenic processes, we observed in tumor-bearing animals an increased expression of genes involved in proteolysis such as ubiquitin ligases Muscle Ring Finger 1 (MuRF-1) and Muscle Atrophy F-box protein (MAFBx). Moreover, an overexpression of both sarco/endoplasmic Ca2 +-ATPase (SERCA1) and adenine nucleotide translocator (ANT1), both factors related to cellular energetic efficiency, was observed. Tumor burden also leads to a marked decreased in muscle ATP content.Conclusions
In addition to muscle proteolysis, other ATP-related pathways may have a key role in muscle wasting, both directly by increasing energetic inefficiency, and indirectly, by affecting the sarcoplasmic reticulum–mitochondrial assembly that is essential for muscle function and homeostasis.General significance
The present study reports profound morphological changes in cancer cachectic muscle, which are visualized mainly in alterations in sarcoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. These alterations are linked to pathways that can account for energy inefficiency associated with cancer cachexia. 相似文献6.

Cachexia, a paraneoplastic syndrome markedly associated with worsened prognosis in cancer patients, provokes profound wasting of both lean and adipose mass in an association with a state of metabolic “chaos”. The white adipose tissue responds to cachexia with marked local inflammation and may be thus a relevant contributor to systemic inflammation. To address this hypothesis we examined the correlation between tissue expression of adipokines and plasma concentration in cachectic and stable weight patients with or without cancer. Adiponectin and liver-derived CRP concentration were significantly higher in the cachectic groups when compared with stable weight patients (P < 0.01). The concentration of plasma IL-6 was higher (11.4-fold) in the cancer cachectic group when compared with weight-stable controls, and presented a significant correlation with the presence of cancer (P < 0.001). A marked increase (5-fold) in IL-6 as a result of the interaction between the presence of cachexia and the presence of tumour was observed in the subcutaneous tissue of the patients, yet not in the visceral depot. Plasma adiponectin levels were higher in cachectic cancer patients, compared with stable weight cancer patients individually matched by age, sex, and BMI, and the subcutaneous depot was found to be the main contributing tissue, rather than the visceral pad. Based on the results we concluded that the subcutaneous adipose tissue is associated with plasma changes that may function as markers of cachexia. 相似文献

Severe or chronic disease can lead to cachexia which involves weight loss and muscle wasting. Cancer cachexia contributes significantly to disease morbidity and mortality. Multiple studies have shown that the metabolic changes that occur with cancer cachexia are unique compared to that of starvation. Specifically, cancer patients seem to lose a larger proportion of skeletal muscle mass. There are three pathways that contribute to muscle protein degradation: the lysosomal system, cytosolic proteases and the ubiquitin (Ub)-proteasome pathway. The Ub-proteasome pathway seems to account for the majority of skeletal muscle degradation in cancer cachexia and is stimulated by several cytokines including tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1beta, interleukin-6, interferon-gamma and proteolysis-inducing factor. Cachexia is particularly severe in pancreatic cancer and contributes significantly to the quality of life and mortality of these patients. Several factors contribute to weight loss in these patients, including alimentary obstruction, pain, depression, side effects of therapy and a high catabolic state. Although no single agent has proven to halt cachexia in these patients there has been some progress in the areas of nutrition with supplementation and pharmacological agents such as megesterol acetate, steroids and experimental trials targeting cytokines that stimulate the Ub-proteasome pathway. 相似文献

Advanced cancer patients exhibit cachexia, a condition characterized by a significant reduction in the body weight predominantly from loss of skeletal muscle and adipose tissue. Cachexia is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in cancer patients. Decreased food intake and multi-organ energy imbalance in cancer patients worsen the cachexia syndrome. Cachectic cancer patients have a low tolerance for chemo- and radiation therapies and also have a reduced quality of life. The presence of tumors and the current treatment options for cancer further exacerbate the cachexia condition, which remains an unmet medical need. The onset of cachexia involves crosstalk between different organs leading to muscle wasting. Recent advancements in understanding the molecular mechanisms of skeletal muscle atrophy/hypertrophy and adipose tissue wasting/browning provide a platform for the development of new targeted therapies. Therefore, a better understanding of this multifactorial disorder will help to improve the quality of life of cachectic patients. In this review, we summarize the metabolic mediators of cachexia, their molecular functions, affected organs especially with respect to muscle atrophy and adipose browning and then discuss advanced therapeutic approaches to cancer cachexia. 相似文献

Cachexia is associated with decreased survival in cancer patients and has a prevalence of up to 80%. The etiology of cachexia is poorly understood, and limited treatment options exist. Here, we investigated the role of the human gut microbiome in cachexia by integrating shotgun metagenomics and plasma metabolomics of 31 lung cancer patients. The cachexia group showed significant differences in the gut microbial composition, functional pathways of the metagenome, and the related plasma metabolites compared to non-cachectic patients. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), methylhistamine, and vitamins were significantly depleted in the plasma of cachexia patients, which was also reflected in the depletion of relevant gut microbiota functional pathways. The enrichment of BCAAs and 3-oxocholic acid in non-cachectic patients were positively correlated with gut microbial species Prevotella copri and Lactobacillus gasseri, respectively. Furthermore, the gut microbiota capacity for lipopolysaccharides biosynthesis was significantly enriched in cachectic patients. The involvement of the gut microbiome in cachexia was further observed in a high-performance machine learning model using solely gut microbial features. Our study demonstrates the links between cachectic host metabolism and specific gut microbial species and functions in a clinical setting, suggesting that the gut microbiota could have an influence on cachexia with possible therapeutic applications.Subject terms: Microbiome, Metagenomics, Next-generation sequencing, Metabolomics 相似文献

AimsTreatment of cachexia requires pharmacological intervention which, in turn, requires knowledge of the mediators and processes. Cachexia markers that are specifically expressed in pancreatic cancer and secreted into the blood circulation have yet to be identified. The aim of our study was to investigate the serum protein profiles and protein alterations associated with cachexia and to identify potential disease protein biomarkers indicative for this syndrome.Main methodsSerum samples from cachectic and non-cachectic patients undergoing pancreatic cancer (PaCa) surgery and controls were investigated by Surface Enhanced Laser Desorption/Ionization Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (SELDI-TOF-MS). The identity of detected discriminatory markers was determined by a combination of protein fractionation, chromatographic purification steps, gel electrophoresis, and mass spectrometry.Key findingsUsing Cu-IMAC array and CM-10 array based SELDI-TOF-MS. we identified eleven up- and four down-regulated proteins associated with cachexia. CiphergenExpress analysis revealed four disease-associated protein features (38559 Da, 9138 Da, 8925 Da and 3358 Da) that were elevated by a factor of 2.3, 1.7, 1.4 and 1.4, respectively. Zinc-α2-glycoprotein (ZAG), apolipoproteins apo C-II and apo C-III and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) were identified as markers for PaCa-associated cachexia syndrome. ZAG levels were additionally evaluated in serum and tissue samples by ELISA and immunohistochemistry and the obtained data confirmed the SELDI-TOF-MS results.SignificanceThe identified proteins could be routinely and reliably measured in the serum of patients and provide an elegant non-invasive approach for early diagnosis of cachectic pancreatic cancer patients. Controlling ZAG and GLP-1 activity could be beneficial in the management of cancers and cachexia-induced conditions. 相似文献

The functional characteristics of cardiac muscle depend on the composition of protein isoforms in the cardiomyocyte contractile machinery. In the ventricular myocardium of mammals, several isoforms of contractile and regulatory proteins are expressed–two isoforms of myosin (V1 and V3) and three isoforms of tropomyosin chains (α, β, and κ). Expression of protein isoforms depends on the animal species, its age and hormonal status, and this can change with pathologies of the myocardium. Mutations in these proteins can lead to cardiomyopathies. The functional significance of the protein isoform composition has been studied mainly on intact hearts or on isolated preparations of myocardium, which could not provide a clear comprehension of the role of each particular isoform. Present-day experimental techniques such as an optical trap and in vitro motility assay make it possible to investigate the phenomena of interactions of contractile and regulatory proteins on the molecular level, thus avoiding effects associated with properties of a whole muscle or muscle tissue. These methods enable free combining of the isoforms to test the molecular mechanisms of their participation in the actin–myosin interaction. Using the optical trap and the in vitro motility assay, we have studied functional characteristics of the cardiac myosin isoforms, molecular mechanisms of the calcium-dependent regulation of actin–myosin interaction, and the role of myosin and tropomyosin isoforms in the cooperativity mechanisms in myocardium. The knowledge of molecular mechanisms underlying myocardial contractility and its regulation is necessary for comprehension of cardiac muscle functioning, its disorders in pathologies, and for development of approaches for their correction. 相似文献

Cachexia is a wasting syndrome characterized by devastating skeletal muscle atrophy that dramatically increases mortality in various diseases, most notably in cancer patients with a penetrance of up to 80%. Knowledge regarding the mechanism of cancer‐induced cachexia remains very scarce, making cachexia an unmet medical need. In this study, we discovered strong alterations of iron metabolism in the skeletal muscle of both cancer patients and tumor‐bearing mice, characterized by decreased iron availability in mitochondria. We found that modulation of iron levels directly influences myotube size in vitro and muscle mass in otherwise healthy mice. Furthermore, iron supplementation was sufficient to preserve both muscle function and mass, prolong survival in tumor‐bearing mice, and even rescues strength in human subjects within an unexpectedly short time frame. Importantly, iron supplementation refuels mitochondrial oxidative metabolism and energy production. Overall, our findings provide new mechanistic insights in cancer‐induced skeletal muscle wasting, and support targeting iron metabolism as a potential therapeutic option for muscle wasting diseases. 相似文献

Despite recent consensus definitions, lack of specific biomarkers remains a hurdle towards a more accurate and efficient diagnosis of cancer cachexia, distinguishing cachexia as a separate entity from other wasting syndromes. In a previous pilot study, we have shown that cancer-cachectic mice have a unique metabolic fingerprint with distinct glucose and lipid alterations compared to healthy controls. Further metabolomics studies were carried out to investigate differences in metabolic profiles of cancer-cachectic mice to tumor-bearing non-cachectic mice, calorie-restricted mice, and surgically treated cancer-cachectic mice. CD2F1 mice were divided into: (1) Cachexia Group received cachexia-inducing C26 undifferentiated colon carcinoma cells; (2) Tumor-Burden Group received, non-cachectic, P388 lymphoma cells; (3) Caloric-Restriction Group, remaining cancer-free, but subjected to caloric-restriction; (4) Surgery Group, similar to Cachexia Group, but tumors resected mid-experiment; and (5) Control Group aged intact. Baseline, mid-experiment and final serum samples were collected for 1H NMR spectroscopic analysis. After data reduction, unsupervised principal component analysis and orthogonal projections to latent structures analyses demonstrate that the unique metabolic fingerprint is independent of tumor-burden and distinct from profiles of caloric-restriction and aging. Hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, and reduced branched-chain amino acids distinguish cachexia from other groups. Furthermore, the profile of surgically treated mice differs from that of cachectic mice, reverting to a profile more congruent with healthy controls indicating cachexia is amenable to correction where surgical cure is possible. That metabolomic analysis of murine serum is able to differentiate cachexia from tumor-burden and caloric-restriction warrants similar translational investigations in patients to explore cancer cachexia’s unique biomarkers. 相似文献

Cachexia is characterized as an inflammatory state induced by the cancer environment, which is accompanied by the loss of muscle and fat mass. Well-investigated mechanisms of cachexia include the suppression of myofiber protein synthesis and the induction of the protein degradation. However, it is not well characterized whether chronic inflammation during cachexia induces myofiber degeneration, which contributes to muscle mass loss and decreased functional capacity. The purpose of this study was to determine whether Apc(Min/+) mice, which demonstrate a chronic systemic inflammatory state due to an intestinal tumor burden, undergo cachexia and whether the myofibers exhibit signs of degeneration and/or regeneration. Six-month-old female Apc(Min/+) body weight decreased 21% compared with C57BL/6 mice and was not the result of blunted growth. Apc(Min/+) gastrocnemius muscle was reduced 45%, and soleus mean fiber cross-sectional area decreased 24% vs. C57BL/6 mice. Soleus muscle morphology demonstrated pathology of myofibers undergoing degeneration and/or regeneration. These data demonstrate that the Apc(Min/+) mouse becomes cachectic by 6 mo of age and that skeletal muscle degeneration and regeneration may be related to the muscle loss. 相似文献

Muscle dysfunction and wasting are predictors of mortality in advanced COPD and malignancies. Redox imbalance and enhanced protein catabolism are underlying mechanisms in COPD. We hypothesized that the expression profile of several biological markers share similarities in patients with cachexia associated with either COPD or lung cancer (LC). In vastus lateralis of cachectic patients with either LC (n=10) or advanced COPD (n=16) and healthy controls (n=10), markers of redox balance, inflammation, proteolysis, autophagy, signaling pathways, mitochondrial function, muscle structure, and sarcomere damage were measured using laboratory and light and electron microscopy techniques. Systemic redox balance and inflammation were also determined. All subjects were clinically evaluated. Compared to controls, in both cachectic groups of patients, a similar expression profile of different biological markers was observed in their muscles: increased levels of muscle protein oxidation and ubiquitination (p<0.05, both), which positively correlated (r=0.888), redox-sensitive signaling pathways (NF-κB and FoxO) were activated (p<0.05, all), fast-twitch fiber sizes were atrophied, muscle structural abnormalities and sarcomere disruptions were significantly greater (p<0.05, both). Structural and functional protein levels were lower in muscles of both cachectic patient groups than in controls (p<0.05, all). However, levels of autophagy markers including ultrastructural autophagosome counts were increased only in muscles of cachectic COPD patients (p<0.05). Systemic oxidative stress and inflammation levels were also increased in both patient groups compared to controls (p<0.005, both). Oxidative stress and redox-sensitive signaling pathways are likely to contribute to the etiology of muscle wasting and sarcomere disruption in patients with respiratory cachexia: LC and COPD. 相似文献
