Arrestin domain containing 2 is highly induced in response to disuse in young and aged muscle and is sufficient to lower C2C12 myotube diameter

ABSTRACT: Arrestin Domain Containing 2 and 3 (Arrdc2/3) are genes whose mRNA contents are decreased in young skeletal muscle following mechanical overload. Arrdc3 is linked to the regulation of signaling pathways in non-muscle cells that could influence skeletal muscle size. Despite a similar amino acid sequence, Arrdc2 function remains undefined. The purpose of this study was to further explore the relationship of Arrdc2/Arrdc3 expression with changes in mechanical load in young and aged muscle and define the effect of Arrdc2/3 expression on myotube diameter. In young and aged mice, mechanical load was decreased using hindlimb suspension while mechanical load was increased by reloading previously unloaded muscle or inducing high force contractions. Arrdc2 and Arrdc3 mRNAs were overexpressed in C2C12 myotubes using adenoviruses. Myotube diameter was determined 48 h post-transfection and RNA sequencing was performed on those samples. Arrdc2 and Arrdc3 mRNA content was higher in the unloaded muscle within 1 day of disuse and remained higher up through 10 days. The induction of Arrdc2 mRNA was more pronounced in aged muscle than young muscle in response to unloading. Reloading previously unloaded muscle of young and aged mice restored Arrdc2 and Arrdc3 levels to ambulatory levels. Increasing mechanical load beyond normal ambulatory levels lowered Arrdc2 but not Arrdc3 mRNA in young and aged muscle. Arrdc2, not Arrdc3, overexpression was sufficient to lower myotube diameter in C2C12 cells in part by altering the transcriptome favoring muscle atrophy. These data are consistent with Arrdc2 contributing to disuse atrophy, particularly in aged muscle.

Modelling Skeletal Muscle Ageing and Repair In Vitro

Project description:Healthy skeletal muscle can regenerate after ischaemic, mechanical, or toxin-induced injury, but ageing impairs that regeneration potential. This has been largely attributed to dysfunctional satellite cells and reduced myogenic capacity. Understanding which signalling pathways are associated with reduced myogenesis and impaired muscle regeneration can provide valuable information about the mechanisms driving muscle ageing and prompt the development of new therapies. To investigate this, we developed a high-throughput in vitro model to assess muscle regeneration in chemically injured C2C12 and human myotube-derived young and aged myoblast cultures. We observed a reduced regeneration capacity of aged cells, as indicated by an attenuated recovery towards preinjury myotube size and myogenic fusion index at the end of the regeneration period, in comparison with younger muscle cells that were fully recovered. RNA-sequencing data showed significant enrichment of KEGG signalling pathways, PI3K-Akt, and downregulation of GO processes associated with muscle development, differentiation, and contraction in aged but not in young muscle cells. Data presented here suggests that repair in response to in vitro injury is impaired in aged vs. young muscle cells. Our study establishes a framework that enables further understanding of the factors underlying impaired muscle regeneration in older age.

Skeletal muscle specific AMPKalpha1/2 deletion during hindlimb unloading

Project description:The primary goal of this study was to determine the role of AMPKalpha during disuse atrophy. Skeletal muscle-specific tamoxifen-inducible AMPKlpha1/alpha2 double knockout (KO) mice were generated and KO was induced for 4 weeks. After 2 weeks of KO, mice were hindlimb unloaded (HU) for 2 weeks to induce atrophy or maintained ambulatory (AMB). We observed that AMPKalpha double KO impaired skeletal muscle transcriptional profiles that may have carried over with HU.

Disrupted Macrophage Metabolic Reprogramming in Aged Soleus Muscle During Early Recovery following Disuse Atrophy

Project description:Aged skeletal muscle is characterized by impaired muscle recovery following disuse and coincides with an impaired muscle pro-inflammatory macrophage response. Macrophage inflammatory status (polarization) is regulated by its metabolic state, but to date, little is understood of macrophage metabolism and its relation to macrophage polarization in the context of muscle recovery and aging. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to thoroughly characterize macrophage metabolism and polarization in aged muscle during early recovery from disuse atrophy using single cell RNA sequencing and functional assays. Young (4-5 mo) and old (20-22 mo) male C57BL/6 mice underwent 14 days of hindlimb unloading followed by 4 days of ambulatory recovery. CD45+ cells were isolated from solei muscles and analyzed using 10x Genomics single cell RNA sequencing. We found that aged M1 macrophage clusters were characterized with an impaired inflammatory and glycolytic transcriptome and this impairment was accompanied by a suppression of HIF-1α and its immediate downstream target GLUT1.

oocyte miRNA profiling by array

Project description:This study compares miRNA expression profiles in mouse oocytes as young oocytes vs aged oocytes, and growing oocytes vs small oocytes from primordial follicles. Oocytes were derived from the ovary of young (6-8 week-old) C57BL/6 mice and aged (41-43 week-old) mice and pooled according to whether they were 20 to 50 um or 60 to 80 um in diameter. Of oocytes with the diameter of more than 60um, oocyte from young mice are called ‘young oocytes’ and those from aged mice near the end of their reproductive life span are called ‘aged oocytes’ to analyze the miRNA profiling associated with aging. They were also each called ‘small oocytes’ or ‘large oocytes’ from the size of 60um so as to investigate miRNA profiling associated with growing. Total RNA from oocytes was isolated using mirVana miRNA Isolation Kit (Applied Biosystems). MiRNA expression was profiled using Agilent's Mouse miRNA Microarray Kit (G4472A) annotated against the Sanger miRBASE 10.1 database of miRNAs. This miRNA microarray was provided by Agilent Technologies (Santa Clara, CA). Each sample was run in duplicate.

ZAKb is a cellular compression sensor that mediates hypertrophic signaling in skeletal muscle

Project description:Mechanosensing is required for the senses of touch and hearing, and impacts on cellular processes such as cell differentiation, migration, invasion and tissue homeostasis. Mechanical inputs give rise to p38- and JNK-signaling, which mediates adaptive physiological responses in various tissues. In muscle, fiber contraction-induced p38 and JNK signaling ensures adaptation to exercise, muscle repair and hypertrophy. However, the mechanism by which muscle fibers sense mechanical load to activate this signaling, as well as the physiological roles of mechanical stress sensing more broadly, have remained elusive. Here, we show that the upstream MAP3K ZAK is a sensor of cellular compression induced by osmotic shock and cyclic compression in vitro, and muscle contraction in vivo. This function relies on ZAK’s ability to recognize stress fibers in cells and the corresponding Z-discs in muscle fibers, when under tension. Consequently, ZAK-deficient mice present with skeletal muscle defects characterized by fibers with centralized nuclei and progressive adaptation towards a slower myosin profile. Our results highlight how cells in general sense mechanical compressive load, and how mechanical forces generated during muscle contraction are translated into MAP kinase signaling.

Sparing of muscle mass and function by passive loading in an experimental intensive care unit model

Project description:A unique experimental rat ICU model has been used allowing long-term (weeks) time-resolved analyses of the effects of standardized unilateral passive mechanical loading on skeletal muscle size and function and underlying mechanisms. Results show that passive mechanical loading alleviated the muscle wasting and the loss of force-generation associated with the ICU intervention, resulting in a doubling of the functional capacity of the loaded versus the unloaded muscles after a 2-week ICU intervention.

Restoring Systemic GDF11 Levels Reverses Age-Related Dysfunction in Mouse Skeletal Muscle

Project description:In this study, we investigated signaling pathways in Skeletal muscle precursors that are altered with aging and age-related deficits in muscle regenerative potential. We performed fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS) to obtain highly purified skeletal muscle satellite cells from young, middle-aged and old mice. Parabiosis experiments indicate that impaired regeneration in aged mice is reversible by exposure to a young circulation, suggesting that young blood contains humoral "rejuvenating" factors that can restore regenerative function. Here, we demonstrate that the circulating protein growth differentiation factor 11 (GDF11) is a rejuvenating factor for skeletal muscle. Supplementation of systemic GDF11 levels, which normally decline with age, by heterochronic parabiosis or systemic delivery of recombinant protein, reversed functional impairments and restored genomic integrity in aged muscle stem cells (satellite cells). Increased GDF11 levels in aged mice also improved muscle structural and functional features and increased strength and endurance exercise capacity. These data indicate that GDF11 systemically regulates muscle aging and may be therapeutically useful for reversing age-related skeletal muscle and stem cell dysfunction. We used Affymetrix Mouse Genome array to identify global transcriptional changes associated with age in skeletal muscle precursors.

Altered T cell infiltration and enrichment of leukocyte regulating pathways within aged skeletal muscle are associated impaired muscle function following influenza infection

Project description:Older adults have diminished immune responses that increase susceptibility to infectious diseases, such as influenza (flu). In older adults, flu infection can lead to hospitalization, catastrophic disability, and mortality. We previously demonstrated severe and prolonged muscle degradation and atrophy in aged mice during flu infection. Here, we utilized an unbiased transcriptomic analysis to elucidate mechanisms of flu-induced muscular declines in a mouse model. Our results showed age-related gene expression differences including downregulation of genes associated with muscle regeneration and organization and upregulation of genes associated with pro-inflammatory cytokines and migratory immune pathways in aged mice when compared to young. Pathway analysis revealed significant enrichment of leukocyte migration and T cell activation pathways in the aged muscle during infection. Intramuscular CD4 T cells increased in both young and aged mice during infection, while intramuscular CD8 T cells increased exclusively in aged muscle. CD4 T cells in young muscle were regulatory T cells (Treg), while those in aged were T follicular helper (Tfh) and Th2 cells. Correspondingly, IL-33, an important cytokine for Treg accumulation within tissue, increased only in young flu-infected muscle. Conversely, CXCL10 (IP-10) increased only in aged muscle suggesting a continued recruitment of CD8 T cells into the aged muscle during flu infection. Overall, our findings elucidate a link between flu-induced disability and dysregulated intracellular T cell recruitment into flu-injured muscle with aging. Furthermore, we uncovered potential pathways involved that can be targeted to develop preventative and therapeutic interventions to avert disability and maintain independence following infection.

Mechanical loading and gene expression - Microarray study

Project description:Skeletal integrity in humans and animals is maintained by daily mechanical loading. It has been widely accepted that osteocytes function as mechanosensors. Many biochemical signaling molecules are involved in the response of osteocytes to mechanical stimulation. The aim of this study was to identify genes involved in the translation of mechanical stimuli into bone formation. The four-point bending model was used to induce a single period of mechanical loading (comprising 300 cycles (2 Hz) using a peak magnitude of 60 N) on the right tibia, while the contra lateral left tibia served as control. Six hours after loading, the effects of mechanical loading on gene-expression were determined with microarray analysis. Protein expression of differentially regulated genes was evaluated with immunohistochemistry. Nine genes were found to exhibit a significant differential gene expression in LOAD compared to control. MEPE, Garnl1, V2R2B, and QFG TN1 olfactory receptor were up-regulated, and creatine kinase (muscle form), fibrinogen-B beta-polypeptide, monoamine oxidase A, troponin-C and kinesin light chain-C were down-regulated. Validation with real-time RT-PCR analysis confirmed the up regulation of MEPE and the down-regulation of creatine kinase (muscle form) and troponin-C in the loaded tibia. Immunohistochemistry showed that the increase of MEPE protein expression was already detectable six hours after mechanical loading. In conclusion, these genes probably play a role during translation of mechanical stimuli six hours after mechanical loading. The modulation of MEPE expression may indicate a connection between bone mineralization and bone formation after mechanical stimulation. Two groups: LOAD vs contralateral control and SHAM vs contralateral control (n=5/group)

Impaired phagocytic function in CX3CR1+ tissue-resident skeletal muscle macrophages prevents muscle recovery after influenza A virus-induced pneumonia in aged mice

Project description:Skeletal muscle dysfunction in survivors of pneumonia is a major cause of lasting morbidity that disproportionately affects older individuals. We found that skeletal muscle recovery was impaired in aged compared with young mice after influenza A virus-induced pneumonia. In young mice, recovery of muscle loss was associated with expansion of tissue-resident skeletal muscle macrophages and downregulation of MHC II expression, followed by a proliferation of muscle satellite cells. These findings were absent in aged mice and in mice deficient in Cx3cr1. Transcriptomic profiling of tissue-resident skeletal muscle macrophages from aged compared with young mice showed downregulation of pathways associated with phagocytosis and proteostasis, and persistent upregulation of inflammatory pathways. Consistently, skeletal muscle macrophages from aged mice failed to downregulate MHCII expression during recovery from influenza A virus induced pneumonia and showed impaired phagocytic function in vitro. Like aged animals, mice deficient in the phagocytic receptor Mertk showed no macrophage expansion, MHCII downregulation or satellite cell proliferation and failed to recover skeletal muscle function after influenza A pneumonia. Our data suggest that a loss of phagocytic function in a CX3CR1+ tissue-resident skeletal muscle macrophage population in aged mice precludes satellite cell proliferation and recovery of skeletal muscle function after influenza A pneumonia.
