The objectives of these studies were to determine if (1) hypertrophy-stimulated myogenic regulatory factor (MRF) mRNA increases
occur in the absense of proliferating satellite cells, and (2) acute hypertrophy occurs without satellite cell proliferation.
Adult and aged quails were exposed to 0 or 2500 Rads gamma irradiation, and then wing muscles were stretch-overloaded for
3 or 7 days. MRF mRNA levels in stretch-overloaded and contralateral anterior latissimus dorsi (ALD) muscles were determined
after 3 days; hypertrophy was determined after 7 days. The elimination of proliferating cells in irradiated muscles was verified
histologically by bromodeoxyuridine incorporation. Relative levels of MRF4, MyoD, and myogenin mRNA were elevated 100%–400%
in stretch-overloaded ALD muscles from irradiated adult quails indicating that satellite cell proliferation was not a prerequisite
for MRF mRNA increases. Myogenin was the only MRF that exhibited mRNA increases that were lowered by irradiation. This suggests
that satellite cells contribute only to myogenin mRNA increases in non-irradiated adult muscles following 3 days of stretch-overload.
Stretch-overloaded ALD muscles from aged quails had a relative increase in myogenin mRNA of ∼150%. The myogenin increase was
the same in non-irradiated and irradiated aged animals and also the same as that in stretch-overloaded muscles from irradiated
adult quails. Together, these data indicate that attenuated increases in MRF expression in muscles from aged animals are attributable
to lower satellite cell MRF expression. ALD muscle masses and protein contents in adult irradiated quails approximately doubled
after 7 days of stretch-overload demonstrating hypertrophy despite the elimination of satellite cell proliferation.

Marsh, Daniel R., David S. Criswell, James A. Carson, andFrank W. Booth. Myogenic regulatory factors during regeneration ofskeletal muscle in young, adult, and old rats. J. Appl. Physiol. 83(4): 1270-1275, 1997.Myogenicfactor mRNA expression was examined during muscle regeneration afterbupivacaine injection in Fischer 344/Brown Norway F1 rats aged 3, 18, and 31 mo of age (young, adult, and old, respectively). Mass of thetibialis anterior muscle in the young rats had recovered to controlvalues by 21 days postbupivacaine injection but in adult and old ratsremained 40% less than that of contralateral controls at 21 and 28 days of recovery. During muscle regeneration, myogenin mRNA wassignificantly increased in muscles of young, adult, and old rats 5 daysafter bupivacaine injection. Subsequently, myogenin mRNA levels inyoung rat muscle decreased to postinjection control values byday 21 but did not return to controlvalues in 28-day regenerating muscles of adult and old rats. Theexpression of MyoD mRNA was also increased in muscles atday 5 of regeneration in young, adult,and old rats, decreased to control levels by day14 in young and adult rats, and remained elevated inthe old rats for 28 days. In summary, either a diminished ability todownregulate myogenin and MyoD mRNAs in regenerating muscle occurs inold rat muscles, or the continuing myogenic effort includes elevatedexpression of these mRNAs. 相似文献

Skeletal muscles are characterized as fast and slow muscles, according to the expression pattern of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms in the muscle fibers. To investigate the relationships between MyHC isoforms and myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs) including MyoD, Myf5, myogenin, and MRF4 in adult skeletal muscles, expressions of these MRFs in the ten muscles of three cows were analyzed by a semi-quantitative RT-PCR. The results showed that MyoD expression was significantly lower in the lingual muscles (TN), masseter (MS) and diaphragm (DP), which lack MyHC-2x (fast glycolytic) expression and abound with MyHC-slow (slow oxidative) and/or MyHC-2a (fast oxidative), than it was in the pectoralis (PP), psoas major (PM), longissimus thoracis (LT), spinnalis (SP), semitendinosus (ST), semimembranosus (SM), and biceps femoris (BF). In contrast, the Myf5 expression in TN, MS, and DP was significantly higher than in PM, LT, ST, SM, and BF. No significant difference was observed in myogenin and MRF4 expression among the muscles tested. The results suggest that MyoD and Myf5 influence the MyHC isoform expression, although the effects are not decisive in specifying the phenotypes of adult muscles. 相似文献

Muscle formation and postnatal growth is under the control of the muscle regulatory factors (MRF) gene family, consisting of four genes: MyoD1, myogenin, myf-5, and myf-6. Muscle mass is also known to be affected by specific drugs, like glucocorticoids. Glucocorticoids have also been characterized as muscle atrophying agents. However, glucocorticoids are also the only drugs reported to have a beneficial effect on the treatment of muscle degenerative disorders. Since muscle mass relates to gender, this may be partially caused by gender. The aim of this study is to investigate gender-related basal and dexamethasone-induced expression of the MRF genes. Gender-specific MRF mRNA levels were investigated in anterior tibial muscles of the rat. Myogenin, myf-5, and myf-6 mRNA level was significantly higher in female rats than in male rats. Since muscle mass is usually higher in males, we conclude that the development of gender-related differences in muscle mass is not primarily under the control of the mRNA levels of the MRF genes. Male rats treated with dexamethasone for 14 days (1 mg per kg body weight) showed increased levels of MyoD1, myogenin and myf-5 compared to control male rats. Female rats treated with dexamethasone showed decreased expression of myf-6 compared to control female rats. These results suggest that dexamethasone increase satellite cell-specific MRF activity in male muscle tissue, which is suggested to be associated with muscle hypertrophy, while maintenance of muscle tissue is affected in female muscle tissue. Therefore, we conclude that both basal and dexamethasone-induced MRF gene mRNA levels are regulated gender-specific. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate mRNA expression of several key skeletal muscle myogenic controllers; myogenic differentiation factor (MyoD), muscle regulatory factor 4 (MRF4), myogenic factor 5 (Myf5), myogenin, myostatin, and myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) at rest and 4 h after a single bout of resistance exercise (RE) in young and old women. Eight young women (YW; 23 +/- 2 yr, 67 +/- 5 kg) and six old women (OW; 85 +/- 1 yr, 67 +/- 4 kg) performed 3 sets of 10 repetitions of bilateral knee extensions at 70% of one repetition maximum. Muscle biopsies were taken from the vastus lateralis before and 4 h after RE. Using real-time RT PCR, mRNA from the muscle samples was amplified and normalized to GAPDH. At rest, OW expressed higher (P < 0.05) levels of MyoD, MRF4, Myf5, myogenin, and myostatin compared with YW. In response to RE, there was a main time effect (P < 0.05) for the YW and OW combined in the upregulation of MyoD (2.0-fold) and MRF4 (1.4-fold) and in the downregulation of myostatin (2.2-fold). There was a trend (P = 0.08) for time x age interaction in MRF4. These data show that old women express higher myogenic mRNA levels at rest. The higher resting myogenic mRNA levels in old women may reflect an attempt to preserve muscle mass and function. When challenged with RE, old women appear to respond in a similar manner as young women. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is a positive regulator in proliferation and differentiation of skeletal muscle cells, while myostatin (MSTN) is a member of transforming growth factor beta superfamily that acts as a negative regulator of skeletal muscle mass. The present study was performed to detail whether a correlation exists between MSTN and IGF-1 in skeletal muscle of IGF-1 knockout mice (IGF-1(-/-)) and their wild type (WT; i.e., IGF-1(+/+)) littermates. The body weight of IGF-1(-/-) animals was 32% that of WT littermates. The fiber cross-sectional areas (CSA) and number of fibers in M. rectus femoris of IGF-1(-/-) animals were 49 and 59% those of WT animals, respectively. Thus, muscle hypoplasia of IGF-1(-/-) undoubtedly was confirmed. Myostatin mRNA levels and protein levels were similar between M. gastrocnemius of IGF-1(-/-) and WT animals. Myostatin immunoreactivity was similarly localized in muscle fibers of both IGF-1(-/-) and WT M. rectus femoris. The mRNA levels of MyoD family (Myf5, MyoD, MRF4, myogenin) were differentially expressed in IGF-1(-/-)M. gastrocnemius, in which the mRNA expression of MRF4 and myogenin was significantly lower, whereas there were no changes in the mRNA expression of Myf5 and MyoD. These findings first describe that myostatin expression is not influenced by intrinsic failure of IGF-1, although MRF4 and myogenin are downregulated. 相似文献

Muscles ofspinal cord-transected rats exhibit severe atrophy and a shift toward afaster phenotype. Exercise can partially prevent these changes. Thegoal of this study was to investigate early events involved inregulating the muscle response to spinal transection and passivehindlimb exercise. Adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were anesthetized,and a complete spinal cord transection lesion(T10) was created in all ratsexcept controls. Rats were killed 5 or 10 days after transection orthey were exercised daily on motor-driven bicycles starting at 5 daysafter transection and were killed 0.5, 1, or 5 days after the firstbout of exercise. Structural and biochemical features of soleus andextensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles were studied. Atrophy wasdecreased in all fiber types of soleus and in type 2a and type 2xfibers of EDL after 5 days of exercise. However, exercise did notappear to affect fiber type that was altered within 5 days of spinalcord transection: fibers expressing myosin heavy chain 2xincreased in soleus and EDL, and extensive coexpression of myosin heavy chain in soleus was apparent. Activation of satellite cells was observed in both muscles of transected rats regardless of exercise status, evidenced by increased accumulation of MyoD and myogenin. Increased expression was transient, except for MyoD, which remained elevated in soleus. MyoD and myogenin were detected both in myofiber and in satellite cell nuclei in both muscles, but in soleus, MyoD waspreferentially expressed in satellite cell nuclei, and in EDL, MyoD wasmore readily detectable in myofiber nuclei, suggesting that MyoD andmyogenin have different functions in different muscles. Exercise didnot affect the level or localization of MyoD and myogenin expression.Similarly, Id-1 expression was transiently increased in soleus and EDLupon spinal cord transection, and no effect of exercise was observed.These results indicate that passive exercise can ameliorate muscleatrophy after spinal cord transection and that satellite cellactivation may play a role in muscle plasticity in response to spinalcord transection and exercise. Finally, the mechanisms underlyingmaintenance of muscle mass are likely distinct from those controllingmyosin heavy chain expression. 相似文献

Age-associated decrease in muscle precursor cell differentiation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Muscle precursor cells (MPCs) are required for the regrowth, regeneration, and/or hypertrophy of skeletal muscle, which are deficient in sarcopenia. In the present investigation, we have addressed the issue of age-associated changes in MPC differentiation. MPCs, including satellite cells, were isolated from both young and old rat skeletal muscle with a high degree of myogenic purity (>90% MyoD and desmin positive). MPCs isolated from skeletal muscle of 32-mo-old rats exhibited decreased differentiation into myotubes and demonstrated decreased myosin heavy chain (MHC) and muscle creatine kinase (CK-M) expression compared with MPCs isolated from 3-mo-old rats. p27Kip1 is a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor that has been shown to enhance muscle differentiation in culture. Herein we describe our finding that p27Kip1 protein was lower in differentiating MPCs from skeletal muscle of 32-mo-old rats than in 3-mo-old rat skeletal muscle. Although MHC and CK-M expression were 50% lower in differentiating MPCs isolated from 32-mo-old rats, MyoD protein content was not different and myogenin protein concentration was twofold higher. These data suggest that there are inherent differences in cell signaling during the transition from cell cycle arrest to the formation of myotubes in MPCs isolated from sarcopenic muscle. Furthermore, there is an age-associated decrease in muscle-specific protein expression in differentiating MPCs despite normal MyoD and elevated myogenin levels. satellite cells; skeletal muscle; p27Kip1; myogenic regulatory factors 相似文献

In this study, we have isolated and characterized the chicken Myf5 gene, and cDNA clones encoding chicken MyoD1 and myogenin. The chicken Myf5 and MRF4 genes are tandemly located on a single genomic DNA fragment, and the chicken Myf5 gene is organized into at least three exons. Using genomic and cDNA probes, we further analyzed the mRNA levels of four myogenic factors during chicken breast muscle development. This analysis revealed that myogenin expression is restricted to in ovo stages in breast muscle, and is not detectable in neonatal and adult stages. On the other hand, Myf5 expression is detectable until day 7 post-hatching, and is not found in adult muscle, whereas high levels of MyoD1 and MRF4 are detectable at all stages. To further understand the roles of innervation on muscle maturation, we analyzed the expression of the four myogenic factors in denervated adult breast muscle. We found that MyoD1, myogenin, and MRF4 are induced at high levels in denervated muscle, whereas no change occurs in the level of Myf5. These studies suggest that innervation controls the relative abundance and type of myogenic factors that are expressed in adult muscle, and that when nerve control is removed, the muscle reverts to a neonatal phenotype, with the enhanced expression of three myogenic factors (MyoD1, myogenin, and MRF4). 相似文献

The ultrastructure of mitochondria of cross-striated muscles during aging was studied by electron microscopy. Mitochondrial ultrastructure was analyzed in the flight muscle of D. melanogaster (1- and 36-day-old) and in the cardiomyocytes and skeletal muscle of young and senile Wistar and OXYS rats (3- and 25-month-old). The mitochondria in the flight muscle samples of senile D. melanogaster flies were shown to have several types of peculiar age-related mitochondrial abnormalities corresponding to those described previously. Previously unknown changes were revealed in the ultrastructure of cardiomyocyte mitochondria in senile rats (both Wistar and OXYS). Substantial changes in the ultrastructure of subsarcolemmal mitochondria were found in the fibers of red skeletal muscle of senile OXYS rats. It has been shown that the subsarcolemmal mitochondria of red muscle fibers are a peculiar population of mitochondria with atypical ultrastructure. Initial changes in the ultrastructure of subsarcolemmal mitochondria were revealed even in 3-month-old OXYS rats. At the same time, the skeletal muscle mitochondria of senile Wistar rats maintain their morphological characteristics, and their ultrastructure corresponds to that of skeletal muscle mitochondria in 3-month-old Wistar rats. 相似文献

Molecular signaling pathways linking the hypertrophy after mechanical overloading in vivo have not been identified. Using western blot analysis, immunoprecipitation, and immunohistochemistry, we investigated the effect of the mechanical overloading state on RhoA, serum response factor (SRF), and MyoD in the rat plantaris muscle. Adult male rats (10 weeks of age) were used in this experiment. Compensatory enlargement of the plantaris muscle was induced in one leg of each rat by surgical removal of the ipsilateral soleus and gastrocnemius muscles. In the normal plantaris muscle of rats, slight expression of RhoA and SRF was observed in the quiescent satellite cells possessing CD34 and c-Met. Western blotting using the homogenate of whole muscle clearly showed that mechanical overloading of the plantaris muscle significantly increased the amount of RhoA during 3-6 days postsurgery. Threonine phosphorylation of SRF occurred at 2-4 h after mechanical overloading. The most marked increase in SRF protein was observed in the hypertrophied muscle at 6 days postsurgery. At 2 days postoperation, SRF immunoreactivity was not detected in the proliferating satellite cells possessing bromodeoxyuridine and in the infiltrating macrophages expressing ED1 in the overloaded muscle by surgical removal. The SRF protein was colocalized with RhoA, FAK, and myogenin but not Myf-5 in many mononuclear cells at 6 days of functional overload. At this time, MyoD immunoreactivity was detected in the cytoplasm of mononuclear cells (possibly satellite cell-derived myoblasts) possessing SRF protein at the nucleus. These results suggest that the signaling pathway through RhoA-FAK-SRF is important to the differentiation of satellite cells by interacting MyoD and myogenin in the hypertrophied muscle of rats. 相似文献
