Project description:This analysis was done to determine which muscle group has the most skeletal muscle transcriptional reponses to wheel running activity. Seven male mice with C57BL/6 genetic background were placed individually in cages with running wheels and allowed free access to the wheels 24 hr per day. Access to running wheels began when the mice were 6 months old, and continued for 12 weeks. The morning after the night of running, the mice were euthanized and several muscle groups were snap froze in liquid nitrogen to preserve RNA. The same muscle groups were collected from three age-matched "sedentary" mice that were housed in ordinary cages that did not permit sustained running. For each muscle group, separate pools of polyadenylated RNA from the sedentary and wheel-running mice were prepared for deep sequencing of cDNA with the SOLiD 3 platform.

Project description:To investigate the effect of exercise in several tissues, mice had free access to the wheel for two months, starting at the age of 16 to 18 months. Age-matched and younger sedentary controls were included. Running wheels were removed from the cages at least 4 days before necropsy, to eliminate acute effects of exercise. At the end of the trial, RNA was isolated from spinal cord, gastrocnemius and quadriceps muscle to perform bulk transcriptome (RNAseq) analysis. Despite many genes were differentially expressed in skeletal muscle samples following exercise, only few individual genes resulted changed by exercise in spinal cord.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to determine whether postdevelopmental myostatin depletion influenced the changes in skeletal muscle gene expression profiles induced by a long-term increase in physical activity. Myostatin levels in muscles of adult male mice with floxed myostatin genes were reduced ~85% by activating Cre recombinase. Control mice with normal myostatin genes had the same Cre-activating treatment. Some of the mice were housed in ordinary cages throughout the study, limiting their physical activity. Other mice were given free access to running wheels for the final 12 weeks of the study. At the end of the study, comprehensive gene expression profiles of triceps brachii muscles were determined by RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq), with muscles from mice selected for similarity of running behavior throughout the period of wheel access. Wheel running increased expression of hundreds of mRNAs encoding proteins involved in oxidative energy metabolism, and this response was not affected by myostatin deficiency. The running-induced increase in the ratio of Myh1 mRNA (which encodes myosin heavy chain type 2x) to Myh4 mRNA (which encodes myosin heavy chain type 2b) also was not affected by myostatin depletion. At every threshold of P (computed by analysis of variance), the number of transcripts with interactions between activity level and myostatin level was fewer than the number expected by chance. These data suggest that myostatin is not required for transcriptional adaptations to moderate-intensity exercise. 12 samples, 6 from sedentary mice and 6 from active (wheel running) mice. 3 control and 3 myostatin-deficient mice within each activity level.

Project description:Exercise improves health and well-being across diverse organ systems, and elucidating mechanisms underlying the beneficial effects of exercise on health can lead to new therapies for disease. We find that exercise training in humans causes profound changes in subcutaneous adipose tissue (scWAT) gene expression, including genes encoding secreted proteins. In addition, we used our previously published microarray dataset derived from scWAT from mice housed in static cages (sedentary controls) or mice housed in cages with running wheels for 11 days. Genes that were significantly changed by exercise training in humans and mice were further selected by annotation for Extracellular Space in Gene Ontology. Of these genes, the most significantly correlated with the total wheel running distance in the trained mice was Tgfb2. We validated that exercise training increased TGFB2 mRNA in scWAT of human subjects using RT-qPCR. This led us to hypothesize that TGF-β2 is an exercise-induced adipokine. To determine the therapeutic potential and mechanism for increased TGF-β2, we investigated mouse models of exercise training and obesity. Our findings indicate that exercise training improves metabolism through inter-organ communication with fat via a TGF-β2 signaling, providing a novel mechanism for counteracting metabolic disease.

Project description:To determine the influence of a previous physcial activity period (e.g., exercise) on global gene expression, we compared differential expression in sedentary (SED) and detrained (DETR) rats relative to trained (TR) rats with regular access to physcial activity. TR and DETR rats had voluntary access to caged running wheels for 8 and 4 weeks, respectively. DETR rats were moved to sedentary conditions (normal cage activity) for another 4 weeks. SED rats experienced 8 weeks of normal caged activity; n=8 per group. At the end of each group's respective 8 weeks, all rats underwent 1 hr of moderate of acute exercise stress (e.g., forced wheel running at a speed of 20 m/min). Soleus muscles were harvested 24h post-running.

Project description:Exercise improves brain function enhancing neuronal plasticity and cognitive enhancement. For voluntary resistance wheel running (RWR) exercise, with a load of 30% of body weight, we reported enhancement of neurogenesis and spatial memory associated with hippocampal brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) signaling compared to wheel running (WR) without a load (Lee et al., 2012; Lee et al., 2013). Despite these new evidences, mechanisms for RWR-induced improvement of hippocampal function remained to be clarified. In the present study, we have utilized the high-throughput DNA microarray approach to gain deep insight into molecular mechanisms underlying these changes that could be novel targets of RWR-induced hippocampal plasticity. To do so, whole genome (4x44K) high-density oligonucleotide microarrays were used to monitor the expression level of gene transcripts in the hippocampus of rats voluntary running for 4 weeks in comparison with sedentary animals. These rats showed a significant decrease in average running distance although average work levels immensely increased 12-fold in the RWR group, resulting in muscular adaptation for the fast-twitch plantaris muscle. DNA microarray analysis revealed that 122 (sedentary x WR) and 157 (sedentary x RWR) genes were up-regulated (> 1.5-fold change) as compared with 97 (sedentary x WR) and 467 (sedentary x RWR) down-regulated genes (< 0.75-fold change). Functional categorization using the Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) revealed expression pattern changes in the major categories of disease and disorders, molecular functions and physiological system development and function. Among these, RWR up-regulated genes such as NFATc1, AVPR1A and FGFR4, which are crucial role for neuronal development and its functions. The down-regulated inflammatory cytokines (IL1B, IL10, IL2RA, TNF) and chemokines (CXCL1, CXCL9, CXCL10, CCL2, CCL13, CCR4) might be important to neuronal dysfunction and vulnerability. Taken together, these gene candidates are suggested to play a critical role in hippocampal plasticity. This is a first study presenting not only new information into the voluntary RWR influenced transcriptome in the rat hippocampus, but also provides a hypothesis for the RWR influenced enhancement in brain function. 10-week-old male Wistar rats were randomly allocated to three groups: (1) housed in standard cages and used as non-active controls (sedentary, n = 10), (2) wheel running with no resistance (WR, n = 8), and (3) housed in cages with resistance running wheels with an adjustable resistance (RWR, n = 8). Rats of both running wheel groups (WR and RWR) were housed individually and had free access to a specially designed running wheel apparatus for 24 h/day. Between 08:00 and 12:00 on the day after the final day of exercise, the animals were immediately decapitated using a guillotine. The hippocampi were rapidly dissected, snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at —80°C prior to further analysis. The deep-frozen hippocampi were transferred to a precooled (in liquid nitrogen) mortar and ground with a pestle to a very fine powder with liquid nitrogen. Total RNA was extracted and validated followed by checking subsequently synthesized cDNA by RT-PCR. A rat 4x44K whole genome oligo DNA microarray chip was used for global gene expression analysis using the hippocampi. Fluorescently labeled targets of Sed, WR and RWR samples were hybridized to the same microarray slide with 60-mer probes. A flip labeling (dye swap or reverse labeling with Cy3 and Cy5 dyes) procedure was followed to nullify the dye bias associated with unequal incorporation of the two Cy dyes into cDNA. Briefly, to select differentially expressed genes, we identified genes that were up regulated in chip 1 (Cy3/Cy5 label for sedentary and WR, respectively) but down regulated in chip 2 (Cy3/Cy5 label for WR and sedentary, respectively) for the hippocampus. The same selection criteria were applied for chips 3-4 (sedentary and RWR). Hybridization and wash processes were performed according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and hybridized microarrays were scanned using an agilent microarray scanner. The functional and network analysis were generated through the use of IPA (Ingenuity® Systems, www.ingenuity.com). To validate gene changes in array data and test the BDNF signaling-related molecules and expression of select transcripts were determined by quantitative real-time RT-PCR.

Project description:Currently, the mechanisms behind the anti-aging effects of exercise are not understood. The presented study conducted a microarray on hippocampal samples from adult (3.5 month-old) and aged (18 month-old) male BALB/c mice that were individually housed with or without running wheels for 8 weeks. Results showed that aging altered genes related to chromatin remodeling, cell growth, immune activity, and synapse organization compared to adult mice. Exercise was found to modulate many of the genes altered by aging, but in the opposite direction. For example, wheel running increased expression of genes related to cell growth and attenuated expression of genes involved in immune function and chromatin remodeling. Collectively, findings show that even late-onset exercise may attenuate age-related changes in gene expression and identifies possible pathways through which exercise may exert its beneficial effects. In total 20 samples (4 aged exercise, 4 aged sedentary, 6 adult exercise, and 6 adult sedentary) plus 4 technical replicates (24 total) were analyzed.

Project description:Exercise training improves whole body glucose homeostasis through effects largely attributed to adaptations in skeletal muscle; however, training also affects other tissues including adipose tissue. To determine if exercise-induced adaptations to adipose tissue contribute to training-induced improvements in glucose homeostasis, subcutaneous white adipose tissue (scWAT) from trained or sedentary donor mice was transplanted into the visceral cavity of sedentary recipients. Remarkably, nine days post-transplantation, mice receiving trained scWAT had improved glucose tolerance and enhanced insulin sensitivity compared to mice transplanted with sedentary scWAT or sham-treated mice. Mice transplanted with trained scWAT had increased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in tibialis anterior and soleus muscles and brown adipose tissue, suggesting that the transplanted scWAT exerted endocrine effects. Furthermore, the deleterious effects of high-fat feeding on glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity were completely reversed if high-fat fed recipient mice were transplanted with trained scWAT. In additional experiments, voluntary exercise training by wheel running for only 11 days resulted in profound changes in scWAT including increased expression of ∼1550 genes involved in numerous cellular functions, including metabolism. Exercise training causes adaptations to scWAT that elicit metabolic improvements in other tissues, demonstrating a previously unrecognized role for adipose tissue in the beneficial effects of exercise on systemic glucose homeostasis. Microarray analysis of scWAT obtained from a cohort of mice that were housed in wheel cages for 11 days compared to sedentary control mice.
