Abstract: | The purpose of this study was to 1) test the hypothesis that skeletal muscle cells (myotubes) after mechanical loading and/or injury are a source of soluble factors that promote neutrophil chemotaxis and superoxide anion (O2·) production and 2) determine whether mechanical loading and/or injury causes myotubes to release cytokines that are known to influence neutrophil responses [tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-), IL-8, and transforming growth factor-1 (TGF-1)]. Human myotubes were grown in culture and exposed to either a cyclic strain (0, 5, 10, 20, or 30% strain) or a scrape injury protocol. Protocols of 5, 10, and 20% strain did not cause injury, whereas 30% strain and scrape injury caused a modest and a high degree of injury, respectively. Conditioned media from strained myotubes promoted chemotaxis of human blood neutrophils and primed them for O2· production in a manner that was dependent on a threshold of strain and independent from injury. Neutrophil chemotaxis, but not priming, progressively increased with higher magnitudes of strain. Conditioned media only from scrape-injured myotubes increased O2· production from neutrophils. Concentrations of IL-8 and total TGF-1 in conditioned media were reduced by mechanical loading, whereas TNF- and active TGF-1 concentrations were unaffected. In conclusion, skeletal muscle cells after mechanical loading and injury are an important source of soluble factors that differentially influence neutrophil chemotaxis and the stages of neutrophil-derived reactive oxygen species production. Neutrophil responses elicited by mechanical loading, however, did not parallel changes in the release of IL-8, TGF-1, or TNF- from skeletal muscle cells. inflammation; cytokines; exercise; free radicals |
