Integrated Proteomic and Metabolomic Analysis of Muscle Atrophy Induced by Hindlimb Unloading.

ABSTRACT: Skeletal muscle atrophy, which is induced by factors such as disuse, spaceflight, certain medications, neurological disorders, and malnutrition, is a global health issue that lacks effective treatment. Hindlimb unloading is a commonly used model of muscle atrophy. However, the underlying mechanism of muscle atrophy induced by hindlimb unloading remains unclear, particularly from the perspective of the myocyte proteome and metabolism. We first used mass spectrometry for proteomic sequencing and untargeted metabolomics to analyze soleus muscle changes in rats with hindlimb unloading. The study found 1052 proteins and 377 metabolites (with the MS2 name) that were differentially expressed between the hindlimb unloading group and the control group. Proteins like ACTN3, MYH4, MYBPC2, and MYOZ1,
