The purpose of this study was to evaluate disuse atrophy of skeletal muscle using a hind-limb suspension model, with special reference to energy metabolism. Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into four groups: control group (C), hind-limb suspended for 3 days (HS-3), for 7 days (HS-7) and for 14 days (HS-14). The gastrocnemius-plantaris-soleus (GPS) muscles in each group were subjected to the following measurements. After a 2-min rest, contraction of the GPS muscles was induced by electrical stimulation of the sciatic nerve at 0.25 Hz for 10 min, then the frequency was increased to 0.5 and 1.0 Hz every 10 min. During the stimulation, twitch forces were recorded by a strain gauge, and 31P-MRS was performed simultaneously. Maximum tension was measured at the muscle contraction induced at 0.25 Hz; the wet weight of the whole and each muscle in the GPS muscles was also measured. From the 31P-MR spectra during muscle contraction, the oxidative capacity was calculated and compared among the groups. The weights of the whole GPS muscles in C, HS-3, HS-7 and HS-14, were 2.66 +/- 0.09, 2.39 +/- 0.21, 2.34 +/- 0.21 and 2.18 +/- 0.14 (g) respectively. Thus, the muscle mass significantly decreased with time (p < 0.05). Among the GPS muscles, the decrease in weight of the soleus muscle was especially remarkable; in the HS-14 group its weight decreased to 60% of that in the C group. We evaluated maximum tension and oxidative capacity as the muscle function. The maximum tensions in C, HS-3, HS-7 and HS-14 were 519 +/- 43, 446 +/- 66, 450 +/- 23 and 465 +/- 29 (g), respectively. This was significantly greater in the C group than in any other groups, however there were no significant differences among the three HS groups. The oxidative capacity during muscle contraction in the C group was higher than in any HS group and it did not further decrease even if the suspension of the limbs was prolonged beyond 3 days. The present study showed that in disuse atrophy, muscle mass and muscle function did not change simultaneously. Thus, it is necessary to develop countermeasures to prevent muscle atrophy and muscle function deterioration independently. 相似文献

It has been proposed that the increase produced by insulin in electrical potential differences across membranes of target cells may be a mechanism by which the cell surface insulin-receptor complex causes at least some of the metabolic effects of insulin. If insulin-induced hyperpolarization is a transducer of common effector responses it must precede those responses. The problem has not been addressed previously, so that rapid responses to insulin have not been sought. Two methods were used. In one method, the bathing solution was changed rapidly so as to include insulin in supramaximal concentrations, and a series of measurements of membrane potentials, Er, were made. Insulin hyperpolarized by 9.4 mV within 1 min. In the other method, nanoliter amounts of highly concentrated insulin solution were ejected from a micropipette onto the surface of an impaled muscle fiber. In 21 out of 32 insulin injections, hyperpolarization occurred within 1 s; in 11 control injections there was no change. This is the most rapid response to insulin yet reported, and is consistent with the hypothesis that insulin-induced hyperpolarization may transduce effector responses. 相似文献

The role of platelet-activating factor (PAF) and nitric oxide (NO) as mediators of the effects of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) on skeletal muscle contractility was studied in guinea pig extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle. TNF-alpha (5-10 ng/ml) reduced contractility at every stimulation frequency (1-200 Hz) and shifted the force-frequency relationship to the right. The role of NO and PAF as mediators of TNF-alpha was suggested by the protective effect of N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME; 1 mM), but not of N(G)-nitro-D-arginine methyl ester (D-NAME; 1 mM), and by the inhibitory effect of the PAF-receptor antagonist WEB-2170 (3 microM). TNF-alpha increased the production of PAF and NO. Similar to TNF-alpha, both S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (0.5-1 microM), an NO-generating compound, and PAF (10-20 nM) reduced EDL contractility. L-NAME, but not D-NAME, blocked the negative effect of PAF. Blockade of phospholipase A(2), which is required for PAF synthesis, significantly reduced the effects of TNF-alpha. WEB-2170 inhibited NO synthesis induced by TNF-alpha and PAF-stimulated NO production. These results suggest that both PAF and NO contribute to the development of the mechanical alterations induced by TNF-alpha and that NO production is downstream to the synthesis of PAF. 相似文献

Changes in the rat skeletal muscle proteome induced by moderate-intensity endurance exercise 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The adaptation of skeletal muscle to endurance exercise has not previously been investigated using proteomic techniques. Such work could improve our understanding and generate novel information regarding the effects of exercise. Plantaris muscles were investigated from rats exercised on treadmills at 70-75% peak oxygen uptake (V O(2)peak) for 30 min, 4 days per week for 5 weeks or sedentary controls. Analysis of 2-D gels matched 187 spots across control and exercised muscles and 80 proteins corresponding to 40 gene products were identified by MALDI-ToF MS. Exercise increased the animals' V O(2)peak by 14% and altered the expression of 15 spots consistent with a shift from glycolysis toward greater fatty-acid oxidation. The majority of differentially expressed gene products were present as multi-spot series of similar M(r) but different pI. Mitochondrial aconitase focused to 5 spots, 2 spots (pI 7.6 and 7.7) decreased (57%) whereas the pI 8.0 spot increased (51%) and was found to contain protein carbonyls. This adaptation may be related to exercise-induced oxidative stress and translocation of aconitase to mitochondrial DNA. In conclusion, proteomic techniques simultaneously demonstrated well-established effects, and identified novel changes not previously associated with the adaptation of muscle to exercise. 相似文献

Disuse has been shown to cause a rapid and dramatic loss of skeletal mass and strength in the load-bearing bones of young and mature animals and humans. However, little is known about the skeletal effects of disuse in aged mammals. The present study was designed to determine whether the skeletal effects of disuse are maintained with extreme age. Fischer 344/Brown Norway male rats (6 and 32 mo old) were hindlimb suspended (HS) or housed individually for 2 wk. Trabecular volume and microarchitecture in the proximal tibia were significantly decreased by HS only in young rats. HS significantly reduced cortical bone mineral density and increased cortical porosity only in old rats by inducing new pore formation. Cortical pore diameter was also increased in old rats, regardless of loading condition. Ex vivo osteogenic and adipogenic cultures established from each group demonstrated that age and HS decreased osteoblastogenesis. Age, but not HS, decreased sensitivity to endogenous bone morphogenetic protein stimulation, as measured by treatment with exogenous Noggin. Adipocyte development increased with age, whereas HS suppressed sensitivity to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma-induced differentiation. Serum insulin-like growth factor I levels were reduced with HS in young rats and with age in control and HS rats. These results suggest that the site of bone loss due to disuse is altered with age and that the loss of osteogenic potential with disuse in the old rats may be due to the combined effects of decreased insulin-like growth factor I levels and sensitivity, as well as diminished bone morphogenetic protein production. 相似文献

Objective:To examine whether genetic variability plays a role in skeletal muscle response to disuse.Methods:We examined skeletal muscle response to disuse in five different strains of mice: CAST/EiJ, NOD/ShiLtJ, NZO/HILtJ, 129S1/SvImJ and A/J. Mice had one limb immobilized by a cast for three weeks.Results:Response to immobilization was dependent on the strain of mice. Skeletal muscle mass/body weight was decreased by immobilization in all strains except 1291/SvImJ. Immobilization decreased absolute skeletal muscle mass in quadriceps and gastrocnemius in NOD/ShiltJ and NZO/HILtJ mice. Three weeks of immobilization resulted in an increase in quadriceps levels of atrogenes in CAST/EiJ. Immobilization resulted in an increase in quadriceps and gastrocnemius levels of Myh4 in CAST/EiJ. A similar trend was observed for Myh7 in gastrocnemius muscle. Immobilization resulted in a decrease of the p-p70S6K1/total p706SK1 ratio in quadriceps of NOD/ShiLtJ mice and the gastrocnemius of A/J mice. Immobilization did not affect the p-4EBP1/total 4EBP1 ratio in quadriceps of any of the strains examined. However, the p-4EBP1/total 4EBP1 ratio in gastrocnemius was greater in immobilized, relative to control, limbs in CAST/EiJ mice.Conclusion:Genetic variability affects the response of skeletal muscle to disuse. 相似文献

Background and ObjectiveMany natural bioactive chemicals have been shown to have functional activity, suggesting that they could be useful in the treatment and management of a wide range of chronic conditions. Flavonoids, which include gallic acid (GA), are the most abundant polyphenols found in nature. Skeletal muscle relaxants are drugs that reduce undesired spasms while maintaining awareness and reflexes unaffected. The purpose of this investigation was to determine if GA has any skeletal muscle relaxant properties in experimental animal models.Materials and MethodsThe muscle relaxant activity of three dosages of GA (5, 10, and 20 mg/kg) was compared to that of normal diazepam (5 mg/kg) utilizing climbing, chimney, and modified Kondziela''s inverted tests. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) and a post-ANOVA Tukey multiple comparisons test were used to assess the data.ResultsAnimals given 10 and 20 mg/kg of GA had a great deal of trouble climbing up the chain, presumably because their muscles were relaxed. Similarly, rats given a high dose of GA (20 mg/kg) had a significantly (P < 0.05) longer response time in the chimney test, indicating a lack of attention and slowed muscle tone, resulting in problems with motor coordination. In inverted testing, animals given a high dose of GA had a significantly (P < 0.01) reduced holding capacity on the mesh for a longer period of time. A decrease in holding time is caused by a decrease in muscular contraction. The low dose of GA, on the other hand, failed to show muscle relaxant effect in any of the three models.ConclusionsAs a conclusion, our data show that GA has a dose-dependent skeletal muscle relaxant effect when administered orally to mice.Keyword: GA, Skeletal muscle relaxant, Climbing test, Chimney test, Inverted test, Diazepam, Spasmolytics 相似文献

The present study involved a global analysis of genes whose expression was modified in rat soleus muscle atrophied after hindlimb suspension (HS). HS muscle unloading is a common model for muscle disuse that especially affects antigravity slow-twitch muscles such as the soleus muscle. A cDNA cloning strategy, based on suppression subtractive hybridization technology, led to the construction of two normalized soleus muscle cDNA libraries that were subtracted in opposite directions, i.e., atrophied soleus muscle cDNAs subtracted by control cDNAs and vice versa. Differential screening of the two libraries revealed 34 genes with altered expression in HS soleus muscle, including 11 novel cDNAs, in addition to the 2X and 2B myosin heavy chain genes expressed only in soleus muscles after HS. Gene up- and down-regulations were quantified by reverse Northern blot and classical Northern blot analysis. The 25 genes with known functions fell into seven important functional categories. The homogeneity of gene alterations within each category gave several clues for unraveling the interplay of cellular events implied in the muscle atrophy phenotype. In particular, our results indicate that modulations in slow- and fast-twitch-muscle component balance, the protein synthesis/secretion pathway, and the extracellular matrix/cytoskeleton axis are likely to be key molecular mechanisms of muscle atrophy. In addition, the cloning of novel cDNAs underlined the efficiency of the chosen technical approach and gave novel possibilities to further decipher the molecular mechanisms of muscle atrophy. 相似文献

Repetitive stimulation of mammalian fast-twitch skeletal muscles will normally result in a positive staircase response. This phenomenon was investigated in the rat gastrocnemius muscle following a 2-week period of tetrodotoxin-induced disuse. Muscle inactivity was imposed by superfusing tetrodotoxin in saline over the left sciatic nerve via an implanted osmotic pump. In situ isometric contractile responses to double pulse stimulation and repetitive stimulation at 10 Hz were determined the day after removal of the pump. Two weeks of disuse resulted in 40% muscle weight loss. A twitch contraction gave the same force when expressed per gram of wet muscle weight in control muscles, 317 +/- 24.6 (means +/- SE) g/g, as compared with tetrodotoxin-treated muscles, 328 +/- 24.2 g/g. Both contraction time and half-relaxation time were prolonged following treatment with tetrodotoxin. Repetitive stimulation at 10 Hz resulted in a positive staircase response in the control muscles, but not in muscles of the tetrodotoxin-treated rats. The observed changes in the time course of the twitch contraction with repetitive stimulation following tetrodotoxin-induced disuse are consistent with alterations in sarcoplasmic reticulum handling of calcium. It is not certain if there is a change following disuse in the mechanism normally associated with staircase or if this mechanism is merely opposed by an early fatigue. 相似文献

This study was undertaken to evaluate effects of exercise-induced hormones, cortisol, IGF-1, and beta-endorphin, on the regulation of taurine transport activity in rat skeletal myoblasts, L6 cells. Challenge of L6 cells with cortisol (100 nM) for 24 hrs resulted in a 165% increase in taurine transport activity, 220% increase in Vmax of the taurine transporter, and 55% increase in taurine transporter/ beta-actin mRNA level compared with untreated control cells. Neither IGF-1 (1 approximately 100 nM) nor beta-endorphin (1 approximately 20 nM), added in the incubation medium separately for 24 hrs, affected taurine uptake by L6 cells. However, when cells were co-treated with IGF-1 (10 nM) plus cortisol (100 nM), taurine transport activity (37% increase, p < 0.05), Vmax of the transporter (54%, p < 0.05), and taurine transporter/ beta-actin mRNA level were further increased compared to the value for cells treated with cortisol alone. These results suggest that taurine transport by skeletal muscle cells appear to be synergistically up-regulated during a prolonged exercise via elevated levels of cortisol and IGF-1 in muscle. 相似文献

Taurine, a sulfur-containing β-amino acid, is highly contained in heart and skeletal muscle. Taurine has a variety of biological actions, such as ion movement, calcium handling and cytoprotection in the cardiac and skeletal muscles. Meanwhile, taurine deficiency leads various pathologies, including dilated cardiomyopathy, in cat and fox. However, the essential role of taurine depletion on pathogenesis has not been fully clarified. To address the physiological role of taurine in mammalian tissues, taurine transporter-(TauT-) knockout models were recently generated. TauTKO mice exhibited loss of body weight, abnormal cardiac function and the reduced exercise capacity with tissue taurine depletion. In this chapter, we summarize pathological profile and histological feature of heart and skeletal muscle in TauTKO mice. 相似文献

Disuse atrophy of skeletalmuscle leads to an upregulation of genes encoding sarcoplasmicreticulum (SR) calcium-handling proteins. Because many of theproteins that are induced with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress are ERcalcium-handling proteins, we sought to determine whether soleus muscleatrophy was associated with a prototypical ER stress response. Sevendays of rat hindlimb unloading did not alter expression of ubiquitousER stress proteins such as Grp78, calreticulin, and CHOP/GADD-153, norother proteins that have been shown to be activated by ER stressorssuch as vinculin, the type I D-myo-inositol1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor, or protein kinase R, a eukaryoticinitiation factor 2 kinase. On the other hand, expression of hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1), an antioxidant ER stress protein, was significantlyincreased 2.2-fold. In addition, unloading led to an increase incalsequestrin, the muscle-specific SR calcium-binding protein, at boththe mRNA (68%) and protein (24%) levels. Although disuse atrophy isassociated with a significant remodeling of muscle-specific proteinscontrolling SR calcium flux, it is not characterized by a prototypicalER stress response. However, the upregulation of HO-1 may indicate ERadaptation to oxidative stress during muscle unloading. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to address discrepant findings in the literature regarding coupling between decreased functional demand during disuse and reduced capillarity. We previously reported [K. Tyml, O. Mathieu-Costello, and E. Noble. Microvasc. Res. 49: 17-32, 1995] that severe disuse of rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle caused by a 2-wk application of tetrodotoxin (TTX) on the sciatic nerve is not accompanied by capillary loss. Using the same animal model, the present study examined whether this absence of coupling could be explained in terms of 1) too short a duration of disuse and 2) muscle-specific response to disuse. Fischer 344 rats were exposed to either no treatment (control) or to 2- or 8-wk TTX applications. Fiber size, capillary density per fiber cross-sectional area, and capillary-to-fiber (C/F) ratio were determined by morphometry in the EDL muscle (control, 2- and 8-wk groups) and in the superficial portion of medial gastrocnemius (Gas) muscle (control, 2 wk). In both muscles, microvascular blood flow was evaluated by intravital microscopy [red blood cell velocity in capillaries (V(RBC))] and by laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF). Regardless of duration of TTX application or muscle type, TTX-induced disuse resulted in a significant reduction of fiber area (44-71%). However, capillary density increased in EDL muscle (both at 2 and 8 wk) but not in Gas muscle. C/F ratio decreased in EDL muscle at 8 wk (18%) and in Gas muscle (39%). This indicates that the effect on capillarity depended on duration of disuse and on muscle type. V(RBC) and LDF signal were significantly larger in EDL than in Gas muscle. Analysis of change in capillarity vs. V(RBC) suggested that the outcome of disuse may be modulated by blood flow. We conclude that the duration of skeletal muscle disuse per se does not dictate capillary loss, and we hypothesize that discrepant findings of coupling between functional demand and capillarity could be due to the presence/absence of flow-related angiogenesis superimposed on the capillary removal process during disuse. 相似文献

Metabolic syndrome is characterized by the cluster of a number of metabolic abnormalities in the presence of underlying insulin resistance. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome has steadily increased in all populations worldwide. Taurine (2-aminoethanesulfonic acid) is a sulfur-containing amino acid that is involved in a variety of physiological functions. Clinical and experimental studies show that taurine intake may be beneficial in the prevention of metabolic syndrome including diabetes, obesity, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. This article reviews the effect of taurine on all of the components of metabolic syndrome. In addition, the possible mechanisms by which taurine prevents diabetes and metabolic syndrome are also discussed. Further study is needed to determine the role of taurine in the development of metabolic syndrome in humans, because there is presently limited clinical data available. 相似文献
