Electrical activity is thought to be the primary neural stimulus regulating muscle mass, expression of myogenic regulatory factor genes, and cellular activity within skeletal muscle. However, the relative contribution of neural influences that are activity-dependent and -independent in modulating these characteristics is unclear. Comparisons of denervation (no neural influence) and spinal cord isolation (SI, neural influence with minimal activity) after 3, 14, and 28 days of treatment were used to demonstrate whether there are neural influences on muscle that are activity independent. Furthermore, the effects of these manipulations were compared for a fast ankle extensor (medial gastrocnemius) and a fast ankle flexor (tibialis anterior). The mass of both muscles plateaued at approximately 60% of control 2 wk after SI, whereas both muscles progressively atrophied to <25% of initial mass at this same time point after denervation. A rapid increase in myogenin and, to a lesser extent, MyoD mRNAs and proteins was observed in denervated and SI muscles: at the later time points, these myogenic regulatory factors remained elevated in denervated, but not in SI, muscles. This widespread neural activity-independent influence on MyoD and myogenin expression was observed in myonuclei and satellite cells and was not specific for fast or slow fiber phenotypes. Mitotic activity of satellite and connective tissue cells also was consistently lower in SI than in denervated muscles. These results demonstrate a neural effect independent of electrical activity that 1) helps preserve muscle mass, 2) regulates muscle-specific genes, and 3) potentially spares the satellite cell pool in inactive muscles. 相似文献

Summary Cellular proliferation in skeletal muscle was measured throughout the first 4 weeks after denervation. Twenty four mice had one leg denervated, and 4 groups of 6 of these mice were injected with tritiated thymidine once daily for 7 days, either during the first, second, third or fourth week after denervation. Autoradiographic labelling of muscle and connective tissue nuclei in denervated muscles was compared with innervated muscles from the opposite innervated legs of the same mice. Labelling of connective tissue and muscle (myonuclear and satellite cell) nuclei was significantly higher in denervated muscles, compared with innervated muscles on the unoperated side. There were no significant differences among labelling of nuclei in muscles denervated for 1, 2, 3 or 4 weeks. However, connective tissue labelling after 1 week of denervation was significantly higher than at later times. This study shows that nuclei of muscle and connective tissue cells proliferate and turnover at high levels for at least one month after denervation. 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

A nonisotopic, double fluorescence technique was developed to study myogenic satellite cell proliferation in posthatch turkey skeletal muscle. Labeled satellite cell nuclei were identified on enzymatically isolated myofiber segments using a mouse monoclonal antibody (anti-BrdU) followed by fluorescein-5-isothiocyanate (FITC) conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG secondary antibody. Myofiber nuclei (myonuclei + satellite cell nuclei) were counterstained with propidium iodide (PI). The myofiber segment length, myofiber segment diameter, and the number of PI and FITC labeled nuclei contained in each segment was determined using a Nikon fluorescence microscope, a SIT video camera and Image-1 software. Data collected by three different operators of the image analysis system revealed 5.0 ± 1.4 satellite cell nuclei per 1000 myofiber nuclei and 5284 ± 462 μm3 of cytoplasm surrounding each myofiber nucleus in the pectoralis thoracicus of 9-week-old tom turkeys. BrdU immunohistochemistry coupled with the new approach of PI staining of whole myofiber mounts is an effective combination to allow the use of an efficient semi-automated image analysis protocol. 相似文献

Presenilin-1 and nicastrin, two components of gamma-secretase associated with Alzheimer's disease plaques, are present in the synapses of the brain and in various peripheral organs, including skeletal muscle. In the present study, we examined the expression pattern of presenilin-1 and nicastrin in normal and denervated hindlimb muscles of the rat. Using immunohistochemical approaches, we found that presenilin-1 and AChRalpha was co-localized at the neuromuscular junction in the normal skeletal muscles of rats. The immunoreactivities of both presenilin-1 and nicastrin were also observed at the sarcolemma of muscle fibers. We discovered that presenilin-1 mRNA and its protein are upregulated after denervation of the soleus and tibialis anterior muscles. Furthermore, clear co-localization between presenilin-1 and DAPI, but not nicastrin, was noted in several myonuclei in the denervated muscles. We recognized a few fibers possessing both ubiquitin and presenilin-1 protein in the cytosol. The amount of presenilin-1 in the nucleus and membrane fraction was more abundantly expressed in the denervated muscle fibers. In contrast, no significant difference in the nicastrin protein level was observed between normal and denervated muscle fibers. These data suggest that enhanced presenilin-1 protein may play a role in the degeneration and regeneration of skeletal muscle. 相似文献

Peripheral motor nerve trauma severely compromises skeletal muscle contractile function. Satellite cells respond to denervation by dividing multiple times, ultimately fusing with other satellite cells or myocytes to form new muscle fibers. After chronic denervation, satellite cell numbers decline dramatically, impairing the ability to regenerate and repair myofibers. This satellite cell depletion may contribute to the mechanical deficit observed in denervated or reinnervated muscle. Apoptosis, an evolutionarily conserved form of cell suicide, is a potential mechanism for satellite cell depletion in denervated skeletal muscle. This work tested the hypothesis that skeletal muscle denervation increases satellite cell susceptibility to apoptotic cell death. Adult rats underwent sciatic nerve transection to denervate the distal hindlimb musculature; rats of similar age without the operation served as controls. Two, 6, 10, or 20 weeks after denervation (n = 6 each group), the gastrocnemius and soleus were excised, enzymatically digested, and plated for satellite cell culture. After reaching 95 percent confluence, satellite cells were treated for 24 hours with tumor necrosis factor-alpha (20 ng/ml) and actinomycin D (250 ng/ml), known pro-apoptotic agents. Immunostaining for activated caspases, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL), and hematoxylin and eosin staining were performed to identify apoptotic satellite cells. Percentages of apoptotic cells were quantified histomorphometrically. In addition, the presence or absence of bcl-2 and bax was determined by Western blot analysis of control, 6 weeks of denervation, and 10 weeks of denervation specimens. At 6 and 10 weeks after nerve transection, TUNEL and caspase activity were increased more than two-fold in satellite cells isolated from denervated muscle compared with those isolated from control muscle (p < 0.05). In all experimental groups, retention of adherence to the collagen-coated substrate was strongly associated with satellite cell survival. Western blot analysis revealed that adherent satellite cells from all groups expressed both bcl-2 and bax. These data support the authors' hypothesis that skeletal muscle denervation increases satellite cell susceptibility to apoptotic cell death. Apoptosis may play a causative role in the depletion of satellite cells in long-term denervated skeletal muscle. 相似文献

Effects of one bout of endurance exercise on the expression of myogenin in human quadriceps muscle 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4

The objective of this study was to investigate the cellular localisation of MyoD and myogenin in human skeletal muscle fibres as well as the possible alterations in the expression of MyoD and myogenin in response to a single bout of endurance exercise at 40% and 75% of maximum oxygen uptake (VO2 max). Twenty-five biopsies (5 per subject) from the vastus lateralis muscle were obtained before exercise, from the exercising leg at 40% and 75% of VO2 max and from the resting leg following these exercise bouts. The tyramide signal amplification-direct and the Vectastain ABC methods using specific monoclonal antibodies were used to determine the exact location of myogenin and MyoD, to identify muscle satellite cells and to determine myosin heavy chain (MyHC) composition. At rest, myonuclei did not express MyoD or myogenin. Following a single bout of exercise at 40% and 75% of VO2 max, an accumulation of myogenin in myonuclei and not in satellite cells was observed in biopsies from the exercised leg but not in biopsies before exercise and from the resting leg. The number of myogenin-positive myonuclei varied among individuals indicating differences in the response to a single exercise bout. In conclusion, this immunohistochemical study showed that a rapid rearrangement of myogenin expression occurs in exercised human skeletal muscles in response to a single bout of exercise. 相似文献

Stem cell function, self-renewal, and behavioral heterogeneity of cells from the adult muscle satellite cell niche 总被引:46,自引:0,他引:46
Satellite cells are situated beneath the basal lamina that surrounds each myofiber and function as myogenic precursors for muscle growth and repair. The source of satellite cell renewal is controversial and has been suggested to be a separate circulating or interstitial stem cell population. Here, we transplant single intact myofibers into radiation-ablated muscles and demonstrate that satellite cells are self-sufficient as a source of regeneration. As few as seven satellite cells associated with one transplanted myofiber can generate over 100 new myofibers containing thousands of myonuclei. Moreover, the transplanted satellite cells vigorously self-renew, expanding in number and repopulating the host muscle with new satellite cells. Following experimental injury, these cells proliferate extensively and regenerate large compact clusters of myofibers. Thus, within a normally stable tissue, the satellite cell exhibits archetypal stem cell properties and is competent to form the basal origin of adult muscle regeneration. 相似文献

The obese Zucker rat (OZR) is a model of metabolic syndrome, which has lower skeletal muscle size than the lean Zucker rat (LZR). Because satellite cells are essential for postnatal muscle growth, this study was designed to determine whether reduced satellite cell proliferation contributes to reduced skeletal mass in OZR vs. LZR. Satellite cell proliferation was determined by a constant-release 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU) pellet that was placed subcutaneously in each animal. Satellite cell proliferation, as determined by BrdU incorporation, was significantly attenuated in control soleus and plantaris muscles of the OZR compared with that shown in the LZR. To determine whether this attenuation of satellite cell activity could be rescued in OZR muscles, soleus and gastrocnemius muscles were denervated, placing a compensatory load on the plantaris muscle. In the LZR and the OZR after 21 days of loading, increases of approximately 25% and approximately 30%, respectively, were shown in plantaris muscle wet weight compared with that shown in the contralateral control muscle. The number of BrdU-positive nuclei increased similarly in loaded plantaris muscles from LZR and OZR. Myogenin, MyoD, and Akt protein expressions were lower in control muscles of OZR than in those of the LZR, but they were all elevated to similar levels in the loaded plantaris muscles of OZR and LZR. These data indicate that metabolic syndrome may reduce satellite cell proliferation, and this may be a factor that contributes to the reduced mass in control muscles of OZR; however, satellite cell proliferation can be restored with compensatory loading in OZR. 相似文献

We analyzed the level of protein expression of two myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs), MyoD and myogenin, in senile skeletal muscles and determined the cellular source of their production in young adult (4 months old), old (24, 26, and 28 months old), and senile (32 months old) male rats. Immunoblotting demonstrated levels of myogenin approximately 3.2, approximately 4.0, and approximately 5.5 times higher in gastrocnemius muscles of 24-, 26-, and 32-month-old animals, respectively, than in those of young adult rats. Anti-MyoD antibody recognized two major areas of immunoreactivity in Western blots: a single MyoD-specific band (approximately 43-45 kDa) and a double (or triple) MyoD-like band (approximately 55-65 kDa). Whereas the level of MyoD-specific protein in the 43- to 45-kDa band remained relatively unchanged during aging compared with that of young adult rats, the total level of MyoD-like immunoreactivity within the 55- to 65-kDa bands was approximately 3.4, approximately 4.7, approximately 9.1, and approximately 11.7 times higher in muscles of 24-, 26-, 28-, and 32-month-old rats, respectively. The pattern of MRF protein expression in intact senile muscles was similar to that recorded in young adult denervated muscles. Ultrastructural analysis of extensor digitorum longus muscle from senile rats showed that, occasionally, the area of the nerve-muscle junction was partially or completely devoid of axons, and satellite cells with the features of activated cells were found on the surface of living fibers. Immunohistochemistry detected accumulated MyoD and myogenin proteins in the nuclei of both fibers and satellite cells in 32-month-old muscles. We suggest that the up-regulated production of MyoD and myogenin proteins in the nuclei of both fibers and satellite cells could account for the high level of MRF expression in muscles of senile rats. 相似文献

Regenerative potential of human skeletal muscle during aging 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In this study, we have investigated the consequences of aging on the regenerative capacity of human skeletal muscle by evaluating two parameters: (i) variation in telomere length which was used to evaluate the in vivo turn-over and (ii) the proportion of satellite cells calculated as compared to the total number of nuclei in a muscle fibre. Two skeletal muscles which have different types of innervation were analysed: the biceps brachii, a limb muscle, and the masseter, a masticatory muscle. The biopsies were obtained from two groups: young adults (23 +/- 1.15 years old) and aged adults (74 +/- 4.25 years old). Our results showed that during adult life, minimum telomere lengths and mean telomere lengths remained stable in the two muscles. The mean number of myonuclei per fibre was lower in the biceps brachii than in the masseter but no significant change was observed in either muscle with increasing age. However, the number of satellite cells, expressed as a proportion of myonuclei, decreased with age in both muscles. Therefore, normal aging of skeletal muscle in vivo is reflected by the number of satellite cells available for regeneration, but not by the mean number of myonuclei per fibre or by telomere lengths. We conclude that a decrease in regenerative capacity with age may be partially explained by a reduced availability of satellite cells. 相似文献

It is known that denervation of rat skeletal muscle causes atrophy and this is often adopted as a model for human muscle atrophy. To understand the molecular changes that occur, it is important to identify the profiles of differential gene expression. In the present study, we investigated differentially expressed genes in denervated muscle using DNA microarrays with printed genes preferentially expressed in skeletal muscle. We found that several genes are differentially expressed. Of these genes, ARPP-16/19 (cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein 16/19) is selectively enhanced after denervation. The expression of ARPP-16/19 in denervated muscles starts to increase from two days after denervation surgery. On the other hand, the expression of ARPP-16/19 does not change in hind-limb suspended muscles, such as EDL and soleus muscles. These results suggest that the increase in ARPP-16/19 mRNA expression is regulated by unknown factor(s) secreted from nerves, and not by electrical muscle activity. 相似文献

Although satellite cell differentiation is involved in postnatal myogenesis from growth to posttrauma regeneration, the early stages of this process remain unclear. This study investigatedpHuDes-nls-lacZtransgene activity, as revealed by X-gal staining and the accumulation of MyoD, myogenin, endogenous desmin, and myosin, in order to determine whether satellite cells share the same activation program during growth and regeneration. After birth, skeletal myonuclei in which myogenin expression was limited were briefly characterized by transgene activity. Satellite cells were only evidenced by MyoD and slow myosin accumulation, but failed to initiate transgene expression. After freeze trauma, satellite cell activation led to MyoD, myogenin, and desmin expression. Subsequently, when myosin expression occurred, transgene activation was apparent in regenerating structures, with more intense X-gal staining in mononucleated cells than regenerating myotubes. After the second week posttrauma, only desmin and myogenin expression were maintained in regenerating structures. In culture, the behavior of satellite cells showed that desmin expression was committed before transgene activation occurred, i.e., concurrently with MyoD, myogenin, myosin expression, and the first fusion events. Quantitative analysis confirmed the discrepancy between endogenous desmin and transgene expression and demonstrated the close correlation between transgene activation and the fusion index. Our results strongly suggest that satellite cells promote distinct pathways of myogenic response during growth and regeneration. 相似文献
