Mitochondrial misreading in skeletal muscle accelerates metabolic aging and confers lipid accumulation and increased inflammation.

ABSTRACT: We have recently reported on an experimental model of mitochondrial mistranslation conferred by amino acid exchange V338Y in the mitochondrial ribosomal protein MrpS5. Here we used a combination of RNA-Seq and metabolic profiling of homozygous transgenic MrpS5V338Y/V338Y mice to analyze the changes associated with the V338Y mutation in post-mitotic skeletal muscle. Metabolic profiling demonstrated age-dependent metabolic changes in the mutant V338Y animals, which included enhanced levels of age-associated metabolites and which were accompanied by increased glycolysis, lipid desaturation and eicosanoid biosynthesis, and alterations of the pentose phosphate pathway. In addition, transcriptome signatures of aged V338Y mutant muscle pointed to elevated inflammation, likely reflecting the increased levels of bioactive lipids. Our findings indicate that mistranslation-mediated chronic impairment of mitochondrial function affects specific bioenergetic processes in muscle in an age-dependent manner.

Project description:BackgroundRegenerative capacity of skeletal muscles decreases with age. Deficiency in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is associated with skeletal muscle weakness as well as epithelial cell senescence. However, whether and how CFTR plays a role in skeletal muscle regeneration and aging were unclear.MethodsVastus lateralis biopsy samples from male and female human subjects (n = 23) of 7- to 86-year-old and gastrocnemii tissues from mice of 4- to 29-month-old were examined for CFTR expression. Skeletal muscle tissues or cultured myoblasts from mice carrying CFTR mutation (DF508) at 4- to 18-month-old were used for assessment of muscle mass, contractile force and regenerative capacity as well as myogenic and autophagy signalling. Overexpression of LC3-β, an autophagy mediator, was conducted to reverse myogenic defects in DF508 myoblasts. Adenoviruses containing CFTR gene or pharmaceuticals that enhance CFTR (VX809) were locally injected into the gastrocnemius or femoris quadricep to rescue age-related skeletal muscle defects in mice.ResultsmRNA levels of CFTR in human vastus lateralis exhibited significantly negative correlations with age (r = -0.87 in males and -0.62 in females, p < 0.05). Gastrocnemius mRNA level of CFTR decreased by 77.7 ± 4.6% in 29-month-old wild-type mice compared to the 4-month-old. At 18-month-old, DF508 mice showed significantly reduced lean mass (by 35.6%), lower specific twitch force of the gastrocnemius (by 46.2%), decrease in fast/slow-twitch muscle isoform ratio as well as downregulation of myogenic (e.g., MYOD and MYOG) or autophagy/mitophagy (e.g., LC3-β) genes, compared to age-matched wild-types. Post-injury gastrocnemius regeneration was found impaired in DF508 mice. Myoblast cultures from DF508 mice showed defective myogenic differentiation, which was reversed by overexpressing LC3-β. In aged (> 15-month-old) mice, overexpressing CFTR or VX809 restored the expression of autophagy or myogenic genes, increased mitochondrial LC3-β level and improved skeletal muscle mass and function.ConclusionAge-related reduction in skeletal muscle expression of CFTR impairs autophagy and myogenesis, exacerbating skeletal muscle aging. Enhancing CFTR might be a potential treatment strategy for age-related skeletal muscle disorders.
