Project description:Knockdown of Crls1 results in mitochondrial dysfunction and muscle fiber type-specific adaptation processes both in vivo. Here, we identified the transcription factor ERRgamma as a crucial effector of those processes and we now aim to validate the importance in vitro using differentiated C2C12 myotubes. To obtain the respective data we knocked down Crls1 and treated the cells with +/-GSK5182 (an ERRgamma inverse agonist). The aim is to capture the global transcriptional changes upon Crls1 knock down and GSK treatment.

Project description:Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is characterised by a distinct but poorly understood in skeletal muscle pathology. In a rat model ZSF1, we identify impaired myonuclear accretion as a mechanism for ablated myofiber growth in HFpEF following resistance exercise intervention. Muscle vascular or mitochondrial dysfunction, or impaired protein synthesis signalling, do not appear as primary limiting mechanisms, and cardiac therapies do not attenuate skeletal muscle pathology. However, we identify that acute caloric restriction rejuvenates myofiber growth in HFpEF during resistance exercise intervention.

Project description:Muscle atrophy contributes to the poor prognosis of many physiopathological conditions, but pharmacological therapies are still limited. Muscle activity leads to major swings in mitochondrial [Ca2+] which control aerobic metabolism, cell death and survival pathways. We have investigated in vivo the effects of mitochondrial Ca2+ homeostasis in skeletal muscle function and trophism, by overexpressing or silencing the Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter (MCU). The results coherently demonstrate that both in developing and in adult muscles MCU-dependent mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake has a marked trophic effect that does not depend on autophagy or aerobic control, but impinges on two major hypertrophic pathways of skeletal muscle, PGC-1M-NM-14 and Igf1-Akt/PKB. In adult mice, MCU overexpression protects from denervation-induced atrophy. These data reveal a novel Ca2+-dependent organelle-to-nucleus signaling route, which links mitochondrial function to the control of muscle mass and may represent a possible pharmacological target in sarcopenia. Experiments were performed on biological replicates of single skeletal muscle fibres. Seven fibres were chosen for their Mutochondrial Calcium Uniporter (MCU) overexpression and other seven fibres because MCU was silenced. Overexpression and silencing were performed injecting skeletal muscle with AAV containing MCU gene or short interfering oligos specific for MCU. As control was profiled eigth fibres transfected with AAV and eigth wild type fibres. Analyses were performed 7 days and 14 days after the AAV injection (3 fibers after 7 days and 4 fibers after 14 days for MCU overexpression and silencing, four fibres after 7 days and four after 14 days for control).

Project description:Caloric restriction (CR) without malnutrition appears to mitigate many detrimental effects of aging, in particular the age-related decline in skeletal muscle mitochondrial function. Although the mechanisms responsible for this protective effect remain unclear, CR is commonly believed to increase mitochondrial biogenesis; a concept that is now demanding closer scrutiny. Here we show that lifelong CR in mice prevents age-related loss of mitochondrial function, measured in isolated mitochondria and permeabilized muscle fibers. We find that these beneficial effects of CR occur without increasing mitochondrial abundance. Furthermore, whole-genome expression profiling and large-scale proteomic surveys revealed expression patterns inconsistent with increased mitochondrial biogenesis. These observations, combined with lower protein synthesis rates support an alternative hypothesis that CR preserves mitochondrial function not by increasing mitochondrial biogenesis, but rather by decreasing mitochondrial oxidant emission, increasing antioxidant scavenging, thereby minimizing oxidative damage to cellular components. Cross-sectional comparison of skeletal muscle from young (8mo), old (24mo) and old caloric restricted mice, obtained from the colony maintained on behalf of the National Institute on Aging.

Project description:Mitochondrial fusion and fission proteins regulate mitochondrial quality control and mitochondrial metabolism. In turn, mitochondrial dysfunction is associated with aging, although its causes are still under debate. Here, we show that aging is characterized by a progressive reduction of Mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) in mouse skeletal muscle and that skeletal muscle Mfn2 ablation in mice generates a gene signature linked to aging. Furthermore, muscle Mfn2-deficient mice show unhealthy aging characterized by altered metabolic homeostasis and sarcopenia. Mfn2 deficiency impairs mitochondrial quality control, which contributes to an exacerbated age-related mitochondrial dysfunction. Surprisingly, aging-induced Mfn2 deficiency triggers a ROS-dependent retrograde signaling pathway through induction of HIF1 transcription factor and BNIP3. This pathway ameliorates mitochondrial autophagy and minimizes mitochondrial damage. Our findings reveal that repression of Mfn2 in skeletal muscle during aging is determinant for the loss of mitochondrial quality, contributing to age-associated metabolic alterations and loss of muscle fitness. Quadriceps muscle from four mice per genotype were used (Control young (6 month-old), Mfn2KO young (6-month-old), control old (22-month-old) and Mfn2KO old (22-month-old)

Project description:Mitochondrial dysfunction caused by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage has been associated with the progressive decline of multiple tissues during aging. Muscle satellite cells (MuSCs), which sustain skeletal muscle regeneration throughout life, exhibit reduced number and regenerative capacity with age. Yet, the contribution of mtDNA mutations to MuSC integrity and their impact on skeletal muscle remain poorly understood. Here, we used a dominant-negative variant of the mitochondrial helicase Twinkle (K320E) to induce mtDNA alterations in C2C12 myoblasts and MuSCs and investigated myogenic differentiation. During C2C12 differentiation, impaired mtDNA integrity disrupted respiratory complex assembly, increased reactive oxygen species, and directly compromised proper differentiation. Proximity proteomics in C2C12 differentiated cells revealed that K320E expression not only affects mtDNA encoded proteins, but also reshapes the complete mitochondrial proteome. In vivo, using the fluorescent reporter mitoTIMER, we found that mtDNA alterations in MuSCs, increased mitochondrial oxidation at early stages of differentiation, which normalized at later stages. Finally, by mimicking the age-dependent accumulation of mtDNA alterations, we show that mtDNA defects in MuSCs are transmitted to mature skeletal muscle. These defects induced architectural changes in muscle, including a glycolytic-to-oxidative fiber type transition reminiscent of aging human muscle. Together, our results establish a mechanistic link between mtDNA instability in muscle progenitors and aging of the skeletal muscle. With these results, we demonstrate that alterations in the mtDNA of muscle progenitors are sufficient to drive long-term changes in muscle architecture that may contribute to age-dependent functional decline.

Project description:Aging impacts on the plasticity and biochemistry of skeletal muscle. For a deeper understanding of skeletal muscle function in aging and sarcopenia, defined as age related muscle decline, the identification of molecular signatures regulating muscle function under physiological conditions is important. While molecular studies of healthy skeletal muscle in humans were performed in adults and older subjects, skeletal muscle from infants are poorly investigated in terms of combined morphological, transcriptomic and proteomic profiles.

Project description:D-galactose (D-gal) is a widely used chemical to induce cellular senescence. Cells undergoing senescence induced by D-gal exhibit mitochondrial structural damage and a decline in energy metabolism, which are highly related to cellular aging Studies have confirmed that D-gal can induce senescence, fibrosis, and redox imbalance in skeletal muscle fibroblasts. Our results confirm that D-galactose effectively induces cellular senescence and skeletal muscle fibrosis in both cellular and animal models. The increase in senescence markers and fibrosis-related proteins, along with the observed decline in muscle strength and mass, are consistent with previous studies that highlight the role of D-galactose in modeling aging-associated pathologies. The observed lethargy and reduction in muscle fiber cross-sectional area further validate the model's relevance to sarcopenia research.

Project description:Mitochondrial function in human skeletal muscle declines with aging, possibly because of damage accumulation caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during oxidative phosphorylation. However, most evidence for such a decline comes from studies based on indirect methods and the clinical relevance of this decline with respect to physical function has not been clearly delineated. We hypothesized that mitochondrial respiration objectively assessed in permeabilized human muscle fibers declines with aging, correlates with phosphocreatine post exercise recovery rate (kPCr) assessed by 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and with muscle performance and aerobic fitness. Mitochondrial respiration was assessed by high resolution respirometry in saponin-permeabilized fibers from vastus lateralis muscle biopsies of 38 participants from the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (BLSA) (21 men, age 24-91 years) who also had available measures of peak oxygen consumption (VO2max) from treadmill tests, gait speed in different tasks, 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy and isokinetic knee extension strength. Results indicated a significant reduction in mitochondrial respiration in older age (p<0.05) that was independent of potential confounders. Mitochondrial respiratory capacity was also associated with VO2max, muscle strength, phosphocreatine post-exercise recovery rate (kPCr), and time in 400m walk (p < 0.05). A moderate negative trend toward significance (p = 0.074) was observed between mitochondrial respiration and BMI. Finally, transcriptional profiling revealed a downregulation of mitochondrial gene networks with aging (p < 0.05). Overall, our findings reinforce the notion that mitochondrial function declines with age and is implicated in the parallel decline of muscle performance and cardiorespiratory fitness.
