Project description:Skeletal muscle unloading due to joint immobilization induces skeletal muscle atrophy. However, the skeletal muscle proteome response to limb immobilization has not been investigated using SWATH methods. This study quantitatively characterized the muscle proteome at baseline, and after 3 and 14 d of unilateral lower limb (knee-brace) immobilization in 18 healthy young men (25.4 ±5.5 y, 81.2 ±11.6 kg). All muscle biopsies were obtained from the vastus lateralis muscle. Unilateral lower limb immobilization was preceded by four-weeks of exercise training to standardise acute training history, and 7 days of dietary provision to standardise energy/macronutrient intake. Dietary intake was also standardised/provided throughout the 14 d immobilization period.

Project description:To identify atrophy genes directly targeted by Bcl-3 transactivator at a genome wide level, we performed whole transcript expression array and ChIP-seq for muscles from weight bearing or 5-day hind limb unloaded mice. Genes that showed increased expression with unloading and a Bcl-3 peak in the promoter (from ChIP-seq data) were considered as Bcl-3 direct targets during disuse atrophy. Using ChIP array, we identified 241 direct targets for Bcl-3. Our data describe Bcl-3 as a global regulator both of the proteolysis and the change in energy metabolism that are essential components of muscle atrophy due to disuse. Disuse skeletal muscle atrophy was induced by hind limb unloading. Weight bearing (WB) or 5-day hind limb unloaded (HU) muscles were harvested for total RNA isolation and processed for whole transcript expression profiling. We chose to examine gene expression and Bcl-3 binding from 5-day unloaded muscles because our previous time course study of disuse atrophy suggested that most genes are differentially regulated at this time point, and thus, would best represent the time for Bcl-3 binding to the gene targets of the NF-kB transcriptional network.

Project description:Disuse muscle atrophy occurs consequent to prolonged limb immobility or bed rest, which represents an unmet medical need. As existing animal models of limb immobilization often cause skin erosion, edema, and other untoward effects, we here report an alternative method via thermoplastic immobilization of hindlimbs in mice. While significant decreases in the weight and fiber size were noted after 7 days of immobilization, no apparent skin erosion or edema was found. To shed light onto the molecular mechanism underlying this muscle wasting, we performed the next-generation sequencing analysis of gastrocnemius muscles from immobilized versus non-mobilized legs. Among a total of 55,487 genes analyzed, 787 genes were differentially expressed (> 4-fold; 454 and 333 genes up- and down-regulated, respectively), which included genes associated with muscle tissue development, muscle system process, protein digestion and absorption, and inflammation-related signaling. To the best our knowledge, this is the first study that used RNA-seq to reveal changes in the skeletal muscle transcriptome profiling in response to disuse atrophy without denervation. From a clinical perspective, this model may help understand the molecular/cellular mechanism that drives muscle disuse and identify therapeutic strategies for this debilitating disease.

Project description:Advancements in animal models and cell culture techniques have been invaluable in the elucidation of molecular events and mechanisms regulating muscle atrophy. However, few studies have examined muscle atrophy in humans using modern experimental techniques. The purpose of this study was to examine and validate changes in global gene transcription during immobilization-induced muscle atrophy in humans. Healthy men and women (N=24) were subjected to two weeks of unilateral limb immobilization, with muscle biopsies obtained before, and after 48 hours (48H) and 14 days (14D) of immobilization. Both muscle cross sectional area (~ 5 %) and strength (10-20 %) were significantly reduced in men and women after 14D of immobilization. Micro-array analysis of total RNA extracted from biopsy samples uncovered 575 and 3,128 probes representing multiple genes, which were significantly altered at 48H and 14D, respectively. As a group, genes involved in mitochondrial bioenergetics and carbohydrate metabolism were predominant features at both 48H and 14D, with genes involved in protein synthesis and degradation significantly down-regulated and up-regulated, respectively, at 14D of muscle atrophy. There was also a significant decrease in the protein content of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase, and the enzyme activity of cytochrome c oxidase and citrate synthase after 14D of immobilization. Furthermore, protein ubiquitination and oxidative damage were significantly increased by 48H and 14D of immobilization, respectively. These results suggest that transcriptional and post-transcriptional suppression of mitochondrial processes is sustained throughout 14D of immobilization, while protein ubiquitination plays an early but transient role in the progression of immobilization-induced muscle atrophy in humans. 72 samples taken from quadriceps of healthy ambulatory young men and women. Samples were taken at 3 timepoints throughout a 14 day period, the initial sample was taken at time 0 (PRECAST), then the limb was immobilized via a brace, and the 2nd sample was taken at 48 hours (CAST02D). The third sample was taken following 14 days of immobilization (CAST14D).

Project description:Although short-term disuse does not result in measurable muscle atrophy, studies suggest that molecular changes associated with protein degradation may be initiated within days of the onset of a disuse stimulus. We examined the global gene expression patterns in sedentary men (n = 7, mean age ± S.D = 22.1 ± 3.7 yr) following 48h unloading (UL) via unilateral lower limb suspension and 24h reloading (RL). Biopsy samples of the left vastus lateralis muscle were collected at baseline, 48h UL, and 24h RL. Expression changes were measured by microarray and gene clustering; identification of enriched functions and canonical pathways were performed using the Database for Annotation, Visualization and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA). Four genes were validated with qRT-PCR, and protein levels were measured with Western blot. Of the upregulated genes after UL, the most enriched functional group and highest ranked canonical pathway were related to protein ubiquitination. The oxidative stress response pathway was the second highest ranked canonical pathway. Of the downregulated genes, functions related to mitochondrial metabolism were the mostly highly enriched. In general, gene expression patterns following UL persisted following RL. qRT-PCR confirmed increases in mRNA for UPP-related E3 ligase Atrogin1 (but not accompanying increases in protein products) and stress response gene heme oxygenase-1 (HMOX, which showed a trend towards increases in protein products at 48h UL) as well as extracellular matrix (ECM) component COL4. The gene expression patterns were not readily reversed upon RL suggesting that molecular responses to short-term periods of skeletal muscle inactivity may persist after activity resumes. Biopsies were taken of the left vastus lateralis of healthy, sedentary men (N = 7) at baseline, immediately following 48h UL and 24h RL. A 5mm Berstrom biopsy needle was used. Biopsy samples were immediately snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen upon excision. All samples were stored at -80° C until analysis.

Project description:Our laboratory previously demonstrated that perivascular stem/stromal cells (CD146+ pericytes) can effectively recover muscle mass after a period of immobilization in young adult mice. However, cell-based therapies are problematic in aged mouse models due to lack of viability upon transplantation. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to develop a pericyte-based, cell-free strategy to recover muscle mass after disuse in aged mice. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq) was performed on adult mouse skeletal muscle after two weeks of unilateral hindlimb immobilization, which revealed that muscle-resident pericytes uniquely upregulate the long noncoding RNA Malat1, a negative regulator of Nrf2, and fail to induce antioxidant gene expression in response to reactive oxygen species (ROS; H2O2). This information was used to guide the design of a strategy in which healthy donor pericytes were stimulated with ROS to produce small extracellular vesicles (EVs) that were subsequently transplanted into 4- and 24-26-month-old C57BL/6 mice after two weeks of unilateral hindlimb immobilization. H2O2-primed healthy muscle-derived pericytes produced EVs in culture that effectively reduced restored myofiber CSA in both adult (p=0.009) and aged (p=0.006) muscle after disuse. In contrast, unprimed pericyte-derived EVs did not influence myofiber size. Neither primed, nor unprimed EVs recovered capillary density, yet both stimulated collagen turnover. Healthy ROS-primed pericyte-derived small EVs effectively improve skeletal muscle recovery after immobilization, representing a novel cell-free approach to rebuild muscle mass in older adults after a period of disuse.
