Project description:Vitamin D (VitD) deficiency is estimated to affect ~40% of the world’s population. Notably, VitD deficiency has been associated with impaired muscle maintenance and insulin resistance. VitD exerts its actions through the ubiquitous Vitamin D-receptor (VDR), the expression of which was recently confirmed in fully-differentiated muscle. To seek a possible autonomous role of the VDR in skeletal muscle, we first generated stable VDR-knockdown cells, which exhibited impaired myogenesis (i.e. cell-cycling, differentiation and myotube formation). In vivo VDR-knockdown in rat hind-limbs elicited myofibre atrophy and triggered autophagy pathways. In contrast, in vivo VDR-overexpression yielded myofibre hypertrophy; enhancing translational efficiency (e.g. mTOR-signaling), ribosomal biogenesis and satellite cell content. Neither VDR-knockdown nor overexpression impacted muscle glucose uptake. Crucially, induction of VDR mRNA correlated with muscle hypertrophy in humans following long-term resistance exercise training, but not aspects of insulin sensitivity. The VDR autonomously regulates muscle mass, acting reciprocally to limit atrophy and promote hypertrophy.

Project description:This experiment was conducted to identify mRNA transcripts alteration in muscle from skeletal muscle-sepcific Fundc1-knockout mice. The following abstract from the submitted manuscript describes the major findings of this work. Mitophagy directs muscle-adipose crosstalk to alleviate dietary obesity. Tingting Fu, Zhisheng Xu, Lin Liu, Qiqi Guo, Hao Wu, Xijun Liang, Danxia Zhou, Liwei Xiao, Lei Liu, Yong Liu, Min-Sheng Zhu, Quan Chen and Zhenji Gan. The quality of mitochondria in skeletal muscle is essential for maintaining metabolic homeostasis during adaptive stress responses. However, the precise control mechanism of muscle mitochondrial quality and its physiological impacts remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that FUNDC1, a mediator of mitophagy, plays a critical role in controlling muscle mitochondrial quality as well as metabolic homeostasis. Skeletal muscle-specific ablation of FUNDC1 in mice resulted in LC3-mediated mitophagy defect, leading to impaired mitochondrial energetics. This caused decreased muscle fat utilization and endurance capacity during exercise. Interestingly, mice lacking muscle FUNDC1 were protected against high-fat diet-induced obesity with improved systemic insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance despite reduced muscle mitochondrial energetics. Mechanistically, FUNDC1 deficiency elicited a retrograde response in muscle that upregulated FGF21 expression, thereby promoting the thermogenic remodeling of adipose tissue. Thus, these findings reveal a pivotal role of FUNDC1-dependent mitochondrial quality-control in mediating the muscle-adipose dialogue to regulate systemic metabolism.

Project description:Habitual exercise modulates the composition of the intestinal microbiota. We examined whether transplanting fecal microbiota from trained mice improved skeletal muscle metabolism in high-fat diet-fed mice. The recipient mice that received fecal samples from trained donor mice for 1 week showed elevated levels of metabolic signalings in skeletal muscle. Glucose tolerance was improved by fecal microbiota transplantation after 8 weeks of HFD administration. Intestinal microbiota may mediate exercise-induced metabolic improvement in mice. We performed a microarray analysis to compare the metabolic gene expression profiles in the skeletal muscle from each mouse.

Project description:To determine the transcriptomic effects of Cpt1b loss on skeletal muscle gene expression, we assessed gastrocnemius muscle in chow-fed control and Cpt1b skeletal muscle specific knockout mice using a serial analysis of gene expression strategy. Complementary bioinformatics pathway enrichment studies were performed which indicated that differentially expressed genes between genotypes were predominantly related to various processes include carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism, amino acid metabolism, cell proliferation, and apoptosis.

Project description:MuRF1 is an E3 ubiquitin ligase known to play a role in skeletal muscle atrophy. Our objectives in this study were to gain further insight into the roles MuRF1 plays in skeletal muscle and to determine if this is influenced by sex and/or consumption of a high fat diet. To address these objectives we used RNA sequencing to analyze the transcriptome of gastrocnemius muscle from 30 week old, MuRF1 knockout (-/-) and wild type, male and female mice fed a chow or high fat diet (HFD).

Project description:The fast skeletal muscle protein α-actinin-3 is absent in 1.5 billion people worldwide due to homozygosity for a nonsense polymorphism in the ACTN3 gene (R577X). The prevalence of the 577X allele increased as modern humans moved to colder climates, suggesting a link between α-actinin-3 deficiency and improved cold tolerance. Here, we show that humans lacking α-actinin-3 (XX) are superior in maintaining core body temperature during cold-water immersion due to changes in skeletal muscle thermogenesis. Muscles of XX individuals displayed a shift towards more slow-twitch isoforms of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) proteins, accompanied by altered neuronal muscle activation resulting in increased tone rather than overt shivering. Experiments on Actn3 knockout mice showed no alterations in brown adipose tissue (BAT) properties that could explain the improved cold tolerance in XX individuals. Thus, this study provides a clear mechanism for the positive selection of the ACTN3 X-allele in cold climates and supports a key thermogenic role of skeletal muscle during cold exposure in humans.

Project description:The processes by which mitochondria respond to cellular energy demands brought on by physiologic and pathophysiologic stimuli are essential to cellular adaptation and organismal survival. Disrupted mitochondrial function is implicated in several human disease states, underscoring the need to elucidate the molecular mechanisms that control mitochondrial function and metabolism. We previously described a patient with a gain-of-function mutation in Site-1 Protease (S1P) who exhibited idiopathic hyperCKemia, myoedema, and altered muscle mitochondrial morphology. To date, S1P has been heavily characterized in liver and bone, with very little known about its potential function in skeletal muscle. In our current study, we generated a skeletal muscle-specific S1P knockout mouse line (S1PsmKO) to examine the role of S1P in skeletal muscle. S1PsmKO mice were overtly normal in their appearance and health. However, examination of 12-week-old S1PsmKO mice showed increased gastrocnemius muscle mass and aged S1PsmKO mice exhibited increased muscle mass in both gastrocnemius and soleus relative to age-matched controls. Moreover, isolated muscle from S1PsmKO exhibited increased maximal mitochondrial respiration relative to floxed littermates (controls). RNA-Seq analysis showed increased transcript numbers of the mitochondrial-resident gene, Mss51 in S1PsmKO gastrocnemius relative to control mice. Mss51 is a member of the TGF-β/MSTN pathway, which controls mitochondrial metabolism. Similar to S1PsmKO muscle, S1P-depleted C2C12 cells also had increased maximal respiration, which was reversed by exogenous MSS51 expression. These data identify S1P as a regulator of muscle mass and mitochondrial metabolism, and implicate S1P as a novel modulator of TGF-β signaling. Method: Male mice were maintained on standard chow diet until 12 weeks of age.

Project description:Metabolic dysfunction of skeletal muscle is often prevalent at an early stage in the development of several non-communicable diseases. Here, we investigated the effect of a myokine, secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC), on glucose tolerance in human and mouse skeletal muscles. SPARC knockout mice showed marked decreases in parameters for whole-body glucose metabolism, along with reduced phosphorylation of AMPK and Akt in skeletal muscle tissues compared with wild-type mice. Furthermore, mice injected with SPARC showed improved glucose tolerance concomitant with AMPK activation. Exogenous SPARC treatment accelerated glucose uptake in muscle tissues isolated from wild-type mice but not from AMPKγ3 knockout mice. In muscle cells, SPARC increased glucose uptake concomitant with AMPK activation, mediated by a calcium-dependent signal. Chronic treatment of SPARC restored metabolic functions in diet-induced obese mice. These findings suggest that SPARC improves glucose metabolism via AMPK activation in skeletal muscle, providing mechanistic insights on exercise-induced metabolic benefits and physical inactivity-induced glucose intolerance.
