During early postnatal development, the myosin heavy chain (MyHC) expression pattern in equine gluteus medius muscle shows adaptation to movement and load,resulting in a decrease in the number of fast MyHC fibers and an increase in the number of slow MyHC fibers. In the present study we correlated the expression of MyHC isoforms to the expression of sarcoplasmic(endo)reticulum Ca2+-ATPase 1 and 2a (SERCA), phospholamban (PLB), calcineurin A (CnA), and calcineurin B (CnB). Gluteus medius muscle biopsies were taken at 0, 2, 4, and 48 weeks and analyzed using immunofluorescence. Both SERCA isoforms and PLB were expressed in almost all fiber types at birth. From 4 weeks of age onward, SERCA1 was exclusively expressed in fast MyHC fibers and SERCA2a and PLB in slow MyHC fibers. At all time points, CnA and CnB proteins were expressed at a basal level in all fibers, but with a higher expression level in MyHC type 1 fibers. From 4 weeks onward, expression of only CnA was also higher in MyHC type 2a and 2ad fibers. We propose a double function of calcineurin in calcium homeostasis and maintenance of slow MyHC fiber type identity. Although equine muscle is already functional at birth, expression patterns of the monitored proteins still show adaptation, depending on the MyHC fiber type. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the amount of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) proteins and MyHC mRNA in muscles of patients with different positions of the mandible. Ten adult patients for orthognathic surgery were divided into two groups: distal and mesial malocclusion. The mRNA expression of two MyHC isoforms of the anterior and posterior part of the right and left side of the human masseter muscle was analysed with a competitive RT-PCR assay. An exogenous template that includes oligonucleotide sequences specific for sarcomeric MyHC isoforms (1 and 2x) was constructed and utilized as competitor. Different isoforms of the MyHC protein were identified by Western blot analysis. In the total mRNA pool of the masseter muscle, the MyHC 1 mRNA level was 25.5 +/- 7.6% and the MyHC 2x mRNA was 2.5 +/- 1.2%. The anterior part of the masseter muscle from patients with distal occlusion contained more type 1 and 2x MyHC mRNA, as compared to patients with mesial occlusion (P < 0.05). No difference in the protein distribution was observed. The differences in mRNA expression may be caused by the enforced stress of the masticatory muscle in distal occlusion because of the disadvantageous pivot. 相似文献

Seven myosin heavy chains (MyHC) are expressed in mammalian skeletal muscle in spatially and temporally regulated patterns. The timing, distribution, and quantitation of MyHC expression during development and early postnatal life of the mouse are reported here. The three adult fast MyHC RNAs (IIa, IIb, and IId/x) are expressed in the mouse embryo and each mRNA has a distinct temporal and spatial distribution. In situ hybridization analysis demonstrates expression of IIb mRNA by 14.5 dpc, which proceeds developmentally in a rostral to caudal pattern. IId/x and IIa mRNAs are detectable 2 days later. Ribonuclease protection assays demonstrate that the three adult fast genes are expressed at approximately equal levels relative to each other in the embryo but at quite low levels relative to the two developmental isoforms, embryonic and perinatal. Just after birth major changes in the relative proportions of different MyHC RNAs and protein occur. In all cases, RNA expression and protein expression appear coincident. The changes in MyHC RNA and protein expression are distinct in different muscles and are restricted in some cases to particular regions of the muscle and do not always reflect their distribution in the adult. 相似文献

Postnatal skeletal muscle fiber type is commonly defined by one of four major myosin heavy chain (MyHC) gene isoforms (slow/I, 2a, 2x, and 2b) that are expressed. We report on the novel use of combined TaqMan quantitative real-time RT-PCR and image analysis of serial porcine muscle sections, subjected to in situ hybridization (ISH) and immunocytochemistry (IHC), to quantify the mRNA expression of each MyHC isoform within its corresponding fiber type, termed relative fiber type-restricted expression. This versatile approach will allow quantitative temporospatial comparisons of each MyHC isoform among muscles from the same or different individuals. Using this approach on porcine skeletal muscles, we found that the relative fiber type-restricted expression of each postnatal MyHC gene showed wide spatial and temporal variation within a given muscle and between muscles. Marked differences were also observed among pig breeds. Notably, of the four postnatal MyHC isoforms, the 2a MyHC gene showed the highest relative fiber type-restricted expression in each muscle examined, regardless of age, breed, or muscle type. This suggests that although 2a fibers are a minor fiber type, they may be disproportionately more important as a determinant of overall muscle function than was previously believed. 相似文献

This study investigated the effect of arginine on skeletal muscle fiber type transformation in mice and in C2C12 myotubes. Our data showed that dietary supplementation of arginine in mice significantly up-regulated the slow myosin heavy chain (MyHC), troponin I-SS, sirtuin1 (Sirt1) and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-γ coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) protein expressions, as well as significantly down-regulated the fast MyHC protein expression. In C2C12 myotubes, arginine significantly increased the protein level of slow MyHC and the number of slow MyHC-positive cells, as well as significantly decreased the protein level of fast MyHC and the number of fast MyHC-positive cells. We also showed that arginine increased the activities of succinic dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase and decreased the activity of lactate dehydrogenase in mice and in C2C12 myotubes. Here we found that AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) was activated by arginine in mice and in C2C12 myotubes. However, inhibition of AMPK activity by compound C significantly attenuated the effects of arginine on slow MyHC and fast MyHC expressions in C2C12 myotubes. Finally, we showed that inhibition of Sirt1 expression by EX527 attenuated arginine-induced increase in the protein levels of phospho-AMPK and slow MyHC, the mRNA level of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and the contents of NOS and NO, as well as decrease in fast MyHC protein level. Together, our findings indicated that arginine promotes skeletal muscle fiber type switching from fast-twitch to slow-twitch via Sirt1/AMPK pathway. 相似文献

The sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATP-ase (SERCA) and myosin heavy chain (MyHC) levels were measured in hindlimb-denervated and selectively denervated rat soleus muscles. Selective denervation allowed passive movement of the soleus, whereas hindlimb denervation rendered it to passivity. To minimize chronic effects, we followed the changes only for 2 weeks. Selective denervation resulted in less muscle atrophy, a faster slow-to-fast transition of MyHC isoforms, and less coordinated expressions of the slow vs fast isoforms of MyHC and SERCA. Generally, expression of the slow-twitch type SERCA2a was found to be less dependent, whereas the slow-twitch type MyHC1 was the most dependent on innervation. Our study shows that passive movement is able to ameliorate denervation-induced atrophy of the soleus and that it also accentuates the dyscoordination in the expression of the corresponding slow and fast isoforms of MyHC and SERCA.

To assess the influence of paralysis on the expression of phenotypic protein isoforms related to muscle relaxation, the effects of spinal cord transection (ST) on sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) pump isoform protein levels in the slow rat soleus were measured. Western blotting using SERCA isoform specific antibodies demonstrated a rapid up-regulation (7 days post ST) of the fast fiber type-specific isoform (SERCA1). In contrast, the slow fiber type-specific isoform, SERCA2, was decreased with a slower time-course. The up-regulation of SERCA1 protein preceded the up-regulation of fast myosin heavy chain (MyHC) (i.e., MyHC-II). Immunohistochemical analyses of single muscle fibers showed that 15 days after ST there was a pronounced increase in the proportion of slow MyHC fibers with SERCA1 confirming that SERCA1 was up-regulated in the slow fibers of the soleus prior to MyHC-II. These data suggest that the expression of the SERCA isoforms (particularly SERCA1) may serve as more sensitive markers of phenotypic adaptation in response to altered levels of contractile activity than the MyHC isoforms. In addition, since the expression of SERCA isoforms was dissociated from MyHC isoforms, regulation of gene expression for these two different protein systems must involve different signaling events and/or synthetic processes. 相似文献

Dietary fat plays a major role in obesity, lipid metabolism, and cardiovascular diseases. To determine whether the intake of different types of dietary fats affect the muscle fiber types that govern the metabolic and contractile properties of the skeletal muscle, we fed male Wistar rats with a 15% fat diet derived from different fat sources. Diets composed of soybean oil (n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)-rich), fish oil (n-3 PUFA-rich), or lard (low in PUFAs) were administered to the rats for 4 weeks. Myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms were used as biomarkers to delineate the skeletal muscle fiber types. Compared with soybean oil intake, fish oil intake showed significantly lower levels of the fast-type MyHC2B and higher levels of the intermediate-type MyHC2X composition in the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle, which is a fast-type dominant muscle. Concomitantly, MyHC2X mRNA levels in fish oil-fed rats were significantly higher than those observed in the soybean oil-fed rats. The MyHC isoform composition in the lard-fed rats was an intermediate between that of the fish oil and soybean oil-fed rats. Mitochondrial uncoupling protein 3, pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 4, and porin mRNA showed significantly upregulated levels in the EDL of fish oil-fed rats compared to those observed in soybean oil-fed and lard-fed rats, implying an activation of oxidative metabolism. In contrast, no changes in the composition of MyHC isoforms was observed in the soleus muscle, which is a slow-type dominant muscle. Fatty acid composition in the serum and the muscle was significantly influenced by the type of dietary fat consumed. In conclusion, dietary fat affects the expression of genes related to the contractile and metabolic properties in the fast-type dominant skeletal muscle, where the activation of oxidative metabolism is more pronounced after fish oil intake than that after soybean oil intake. 相似文献

Postnatal myoblasts, the satellite cells, originating from slow and fast skeletal muscle fibres differentiate and fuse into myotubes expressing different phenotype of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms. Little is known, however, of factors which establish and maintain this phenotypic diversity. We used immunofluorescent labelling and Western blotting to examine the expression of slow and fast MyHC isoforms in myotubes formed in vitro from satellite cells isolated from mouse fast twitch extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and slow twitch soleus muscles. Satellite cells were cultured in serum-rich growth medium promoting myoblast proliferation until cross-striated and self-contracting myotubes were formed. We report that in both cultures myotubes expressed slow as well as fast MyHC isoforms, but the level of slow MyHC was higher in soleus culture than in EDL culture. Hence, the pattern of expression of slow and fast MyHC was characteristic of the muscle fibre type from which these cells derive. These results support the concept of phenotypic diversity among satellite cells in mature skeletal muscles and suggest that this diversity is generated in vitro irrespectively of serum mitogens. 相似文献

Skeletal muscle contains various muscle fiber types exhibiting different contractile properties based on the myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoform profile. Muscle fiber type composition is highly variable and influences growth performance and meat quality, but underlying mechanisms regulating fiber type composition remain poorly understood. The aim of the present work was to develop a model based on muscle satellite cell culture to further investigate the regulation of adult MyHC isoforms expression in pig skeletal muscle. Satellite cells were harvested from the mostly fast-twitch glycolytic longissimus (LM) and predominantly slow-twitch oxidative rhomboideus (RM) muscles of 6-week-old piglets. Satellite cells were allowed to proliferate up to 80% confluence, reached after 7 day of proliferation (D7), and then induced to differentiate. Kinetics of proliferation and differentiation were similar between muscles and more than 95% of the cells were myogenic (desmin positive) at D7 with a fusion index reaching 65±9% after 4 day of differentiation. One-dimensional SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed that satellite cells from both muscles only expressed the embryonic and fetal MyHC isoforms in culture, without any of the adult MyHC isoforms that were expressed in vivo. Interestingly, triiodothyronine (T3) induced de novo expression of adult fast and α-cardiac MyHC in vitro making our culture system a valuable tool to study de novo expression of adult MyHC isoforms and its regulation by intrinsic and/or extrinsic factors. 相似文献

Growth hormone (GH) and β agonists increase muscle mass, but the mechanisms for this response are unclear and the magnitude of response is thought to vary with age of animal. To investigate the mechanisms driving the muscle response to these agents, we examined the effects of short-term (6 day) administration of GH or cimaterol (a β2-adrenergic agonist, BA) on skeletal muscle phenotype in both young (day 60) and mature (day 120) lambs. Expression of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms were measured in Longissimus dorsi (LD), Semitendinosus (ST) and Supraspinatus (SS) muscles as markers of fibre type and metabolic enzyme activities were measured in LD. To investigate potential mechanisms regulating the changes in fibre type/metabolism, expression or activity of a number of signalling molecules were examined in LD. There were no effects of GH administration on MyHC isoform expression at either the mRNA or protein level in any of the muscles. However, BA treatment induced a proportional change in MyHC mRNA expression at both ages, with the %MyHCI and/or IIA mRNA being significantly decreased in all three muscles and %MyHCIIX/IIB mRNA significantly increased in the LD and ST. BA treatment induced de novo expression of MyHCIIB mRNA in LD, the fastest isoform not normally expressed in sheep LD, as well as increasing expression in the other two muscles. In the LD, the increased expression of the fastest MyHC isoforms (IIX and IIB) was associated with a decrease in isocitrate dehydrogenase activity, but no change in lactate dehydrogenase activity, indicating a reduced capacity for oxidative metabolism. In both young and mature lambs, changes in expression of metabolic regulatory factors were observed that might induce these changes in muscle metabolism/fibre type. In particular, BA treatment decreased PPAR-γ coactivator-1β mRNA and increased receptor-interacting protein 140 mRNA. The results suggest that the two agents work via different mechanisms or over different timescales, with only BA inducing changes in muscle mass and transitions to a faster, less oxidative fibre type after a 6-day treatment. 相似文献
