Interleukin 1b triggers catabolism via a central nervous system-mediated pathway in mice and rat

ABSTRACT: Hypothalamic interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) production is induced in multiple inflammatory diseases associated with muscle catabolism. To determine whether IL-1β signaling in the CNS plays a role in the muscle wasting of inflammatory disease, we examined the ability of intracerebroventricular (ICV) IL-1β injection at pathophysiologically relevant concentrations, to generate catabolic changes in skeletal muscle. Changes in gene expression associated with these catabolic changes were monitored using gene expression exon arrays. 28 samples were analyzed. The following comparisons were made: 6 groups were defined on the basis of treatment and time. Differences between groups were assesed by one way-ANOVA. P values were corrected for multiple comparisons using the Benjamini Hochberg correction at a false discovery rate of 1%. Probes were considered that showed a 1.75 fold or greater up or down regulation at any of the three timepoints.

Project description:Age-related methylation changes have been identified in various tissues and organisms, yet the underlying DNA methylation alterations in muscle aging process have not been clearly clarified. Whilst, many studies revealed that the structural and functional changes in skeletal muscle during aging process started from the mid-point of lifespan. In this study, we used pigs aged 0.5 year and 7 years, representing young and middle-aged periods. Using methylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing, we performed comprehensive genome-wide DNA methylation profiling for longissimus dorsi muscle in young and middle-aged pigs. We found more genes showed differently methylated in genebody. In details, 185 human ortholog genes contained DMRs that located in the promoter region, while 657 genes and 1063 genes with DMRs in gene body showed hypermethylation and hypomethylation in MA pigs, respectively. From the gene enrichment analysis, genebody hypermethylated genes showed significant enrichment for several molecular functions such as M-bM-^@M-^XGTPase regulator activityM-bM-^@M-^Y, M-bM-^@M-^XATP bindingM-bM-^@M-^Y and M-bM-^@M-^Xprotein kinase activityM-bM-^@M-^Y. Notably, genebody hypomethylated genes showed significant enrichment for various proteolysis and protein catabolic process. However, genes with DMR in their promoter region were not significantly enriched in any biology process. Proteolysis-associated genes, such as FOXO3 and FGFR1, showed different genebody methylation and mRNA expression level in two age groups, which may contribute to muscle atrophy during aging. Especially, other tumorigenesis-associated genes including GPI and GRB2, exhibited increasing mRNA level in middle-aged pigs, suggesting the possible higher risk of having cancer in human middle-aged period. Our results will serve as a valuable resource in aging studies, promote pig as a model organism for human aging research and accelerate the considerable development of comparative animal models in aging research. We collected the longissimus dorsi muscles tissue from Jinhua pigs which aged 0.5 year and seven years and study the genome-wide DNA methylation difference and the genome-wide gene expression profile between the two age periods. This submission represents transcriptome component of study.

Project description:Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) and zipper-interacting protein kinase (ZIPK) have been implicated in diverse physiological functions, including smooth muscle contraction, cell proliferation, cell adhesion, apoptosis, cell migration and inflammation. Many aspects of regulation via ROCK and ZIPK, however, remain unclear. In this study, we utilized an siRNA approach to knock down ROCK1 and ZIPK in cultured human arterial smooth muscle cells. Microarray analysis was performed, using a whole-transcript expression chip, to identify changes in gene expression profiles induced by ROCK1 and ZIPK knockdown. ROCK1 knockdown affected the expression of 553 genes (355 down-regulated and 198 up-regulated), while ZIPK knockdown affected the expression of 390 genes (219 down-regulated and 171 up-regulated). A high incidence of up- and down-regulation of transcription regulator genes was observed in both ROCK1 and ZIPK knockdowns. Other markedly affected groups included transporters, kinases, peptidases, transmembrane and G protein-coupled receptors, growth factors, phosphatases and ion channels. Three microRNAs (mir-145, mir-199 and mir-622) were up-regulated by ROCK1 knockdown, whereas ZIPK knockdown had no effect on microRNA expression. 76 differentially expressed genes were common to ROCK1 and ZIPK knockdown, of which 41 were down-regulated and 26 up-regulated by both treatments, while the other 9 genes were differentially up/down-regulated. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis identified five pathways shared between the two knockdowns, which are mainly involved in cell cycle regulation. Marked differences in the effects of ROCK1 and ZIPK knockdown on the genes involved in cell cycle regulation suggested that ROCK1 and ZIPK regulate the cell cycle by different mechanisms. ROCK1, but not ZIPK knockdown significantly reduced the viability of vascular SMC. ROCK1 knockdown also affected several cytokine signaling pathways with up-regulation of 5 and down-regulation of 4 cytokine genes, in contrast to ZIPK knockdown, which affected the expression of only two cytokine genes (both down-regulated). IL-6 gene expression and secretion of IL-6 protein were up-regulated by ROCK1 knockdown, whereas ZIPK knockdown reduced IL-6 mRNA expression and IL-6 protein secretion and ROCK1 protein expression, suggesting that ROCK1 may inhibit IL-6 secretion. IL-1β mRNA and protein levels were increased in response to ROCK1 knockdown. Finally, ROCK1 but not ZIPK knockdown inhibited proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells. We conclude that ROCK1 and ZIPK have diverse, but predominantly distinct regulatory functions in vascular smooth muscle cells. Human coronary artery smooth muscle cells were transfected with siRNA targeting ROCK1 or ZIPK or with negative control siRNA that does not target any gene product. 48 h later, total RNA was isolated, reverse transcribed, amplified, labeled with the Ambion WT Express kit and hybridized to Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays (Affymetrix) at 45 oC for 16 h. The probe arrays were washed and stained on an Affymetrix GeneChip Fluidics-450 and scanned on an Affymetrix GeneChip Scanner 3000 7G System. Triplicates were prepared under all three conditions for microarray analysis.

Project description:Loss of muscle proteins and the consequent weakness has important clinical consequences in diseases such as cancer, diabetes, chronic heart failure and in ageing. In fact, excessive proteolysis causes cachexia, accelerates disease progression and worsens life expectancy. Muscle atrophy involves a common pattern of transcriptional changes in a small subset of genes named atrophy-related genes or atrogenes. Whether microRNAs play a role in the atrophy program and muscle loss is debated. To understand the involvement of miRNAs in atrophy we performed miRNA expression profiling of mouse muscles under wasting conditions such as fasting, denervation, diabetes and cancer cachexia. We found that the miRNA signature is peculiar of each catabolic condition. We then focused on denervation and we revealed that changes in transcripts and microRNAs expression did not occur simultaneously but were shifted. Indeed, while the transcriptional control of the atrophy-related genes peaks at 3 days, the changes of miRNA expression maximised at 7 days after denervation. Among the different miRNAs, microRNA-206 and 21 were the most induced in denervated muscles. We characterized their pattern of expression and defined their role in muscle homeostasis. Indeed, in vivo gain and loss of function experiments revealed that miRNA-206 and miRNA-21 were sufficient and required for atrophy program. In silico and in vivo approaches identified the transcription factor YY1 and the translational initiator factor eIF4E3 as downstream targets of these miRNAs. Thus miRNAs are important for the fine-tuning of the atrophy program and their modulation can be a novel potential therapeutic approach to counteract muscle loss and weakness in catabolic conditions. To determine which miRNAs are relevant for the atrophic process, we performed miRNA expression profiles of muscles from different atrophic models (starvation, denervation and streptozotocin-induced diabetes). We checked whether there was a common signature of miRNA expression in different atrophying conditions and we found that every catabolic situation require a peculiar pattern of miRNA. We further focus on the condition of denervation and identified the most up-regulated miRNAs in this condition, miRNA-206 and miRNA-21.

Project description:The adult skeletal muscle is a plastic tissue with a remarkable ability to adapt to different levels of activity by altering its excitability, its contractile and metabolic phenotype and its mass. Knowledge on the mechanisms responsible for muscle mass comes primarily from models of muscle inactivity or denervation or from genetic models of muscle diseases. Given that the underlying exercise-induced transcriptional mechanisms regulating muscle mass are not fully understood, here we investigated the cellular and molecular adaptive mechanisms taking place in fast skeletal muscle of adult zebrafish in response to swimming. Fish were trained at low swimming speed (0.1 m/s; non-exercised) or at their optimal swimming speed (0.4 m/s; exercised). A significant increase in fibre cross-sectional area (1,290 M-BM-1 88 vs. 1,665 M-BM-1 106 M-NM-<m2) and vascularization (298 M-BM-1 23 vs. 458 M-BM-1 38 capillaries/mm2) was found in exercised over non-exercised fish. Gene expression profiling evidenced the transcriptional activation of a series of complex networks of extracellular and intracellular signaling molecules and pathways involved in the regulation of muscle mass, myogenesis and angiogenesis, many (e.g. BMP, TGFM-oM-^AM-", FGF, Notch, Wnt, MEF2, Shh, EphrinB2) not previously associated with exercise-induced contractile activity, and that recapitulate in part the transcriptional events occurring during skeletal muscle regeneration. These results demonstrate that fibre hypertrophy is responsible for the growth-promoting effects of exercise accompanied by a switch to a more oxidative capacity of white muscle fibres to fuel the increased energy demands. Importantly, our study identified novel molecular mechanisms regulating muscle mass and function in vertebrates. Adult zebrafish were subjected or not to a swim training regime consisting of swimming at the optimal swimming speed for this species for 6 h/day, 5 days/week for a total of 4 weeks (20 experimental days). Total RNA of fast muscle from individual non-exercised (n = 8) and exercised (n = 8) zebrafish was analyzed.
