Project description:Sepsis-induced skeletal muscle atrophy is common in septic patients with the increases risk of mortality and is associated with myocellular mitochondrial dysfunction. Nevertheless, the specific mechanism of sepsis muscle atrophy remains unclear. Here we conducted a clinical retrospective analysis and observed the elevation of skeletal muscle index (ΔSMI) was an independent risk factor for 60-day mortality in septic patients. Moreover, in mouse model of sepsis, the skeletal muscle atrophy was also observed, which was associated with the upregulation of S100a8/a9-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction. Inhibition of S100a8/a9 significantly improved mitochondrial function and alleviated muscle atrophy. Conversely, administration of recombinant S100a8/a9 protein exacerbated mitochondrial energy exhaustion and myocyte atrophy. Mechanistically, S100a8/a9 binding to RAGE induced Drp1 phosphorylation and mitochondrial fragmentation, resulting in muscle atrophy. Additionally, RAGE ablation or administration of Drp1 inhibitor significantly reduced Drp1-mediated mitochondrial fission, improved mitochondrial morphology and function. Our findings indicated the pivotal role of S100a8/a9 in driving the mitochondrial fragmentation in septic muscle atrophy. Targeting S100a8/a9-RAGE-initiated mitochondrial fission might offer a promising therapeutic intervention against septic muscle atrophy. Taken together, our data provide a potential mechanism for sepsis-induced muscle atrophy.

Project description:Current atlas of regulatory sequences controlling skeletal muscle atrophy are still incomplete and lack cell type resolution. We applied single-cell chromatin accessibility assays (snATAC) to normal and denervated skeletal muscle from mice. We integrated these snATAC datasets with our single-nucleus RNA-sequence dataset to reveal the status of open chromatin. Using these datasets, we delineated chromatin accessibility maps in both normal and atrophic muscles and identified cis-regulatory elements (CREs) in all type of cell in skeletal muscle that may regulating muscle protein metabolism, energy metabolism and transcription activities, thus, provided a rich resource for understanding gene regulatory programs in skeletal muscle and related disorders.

Project description:Sepsis is a life-threatening condition caused by a dysregulated host response to infection.Although our understanding in the pathophysiological features of sepsis has increased significantly during the past decades, there is still lack of mechanism of sepis.Neutrophils are important regulators against invading pathogens, and their role during sepsis has been studied extensively. However, whether neutrophils could inhibit the immune response of CD8+T cells and the mechanism is unkown in sepsis.

Project description:Skeletal muscle atrophy is a serious and highly prevalent condition that remains poorly understood at the molecular level. Previous work found that skeletal muscle atrophy involves an increase in skeletal muscle Gadd45a expression, which is necessary and sufficient for skeletal muscle fiber atrophy. However, the direct mechanism by which Gadd45a promotes skeletal muscle atrophy was unknown. To address this question, we biochemically isolated skeletal muscle fiber proteins that associate with Gadd45a as it induces skeletal muscle atrophy in living mice. We found that Gadd45a interacts with multiple proteins in skeletal muscle fibers, including, most prominently, the MAP kinase kinase kinase MEKK4. Furthermore, by forming a complex with MEKK4 in skeletal muscle fibers, Gadd45a increases MEKK4 protein kinase activity, which is sufficient to induce skeletal muscle fiber atrophy and required for Gadd45a-mediated skeletal muscle fiber atrophy. Together, these results identify a direct biochemical mechanism by which Gadd45a induces skeletal muscle atrophy and provide new insight into way that skeletal muscle atrophy occurs at the molecular level.

Project description:Skeletal muscle atrophy is a highly prevalent and debilitating condition that remains poorly understood at the molecular level. Previous work found that skeletal muscle atrophy involves activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4), a protein in the basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor family. However, the direct biochemical mechanism by which ATF4 promotes muscle atrophy was unknown. Because bZIP proteins such as ATF4 must dimerize to bind and activate genes, and because ATF4 is unable to form highly stable homodimers, we hypothesized that ATF4 may promote muscle atrophy by heterodimerizing with another bZIP family member. To test this hypothesis, we biochemically isolated skeletal muscle proteins that associate with the dimerization- and DNA-binding domain of ATF4 (the bZIP domain) in mouse skeletal muscle fibers in vivo. Interestingly, we found that ATF4 makes up one half of at least 5 distinct heterodimeric bZIP transcription factors in skeletal muscle fibers. This three-way interaction between ATF4, C/EBPbeta and the ATF4-C/EBP composite site activates the Gadd45a gene, which encodes a known mediator of muscle atrophy (Gadd45a). Together, these results identify a direct biochemical mechanism by which ATF4 induces skeletal muscle atrophy and provide new insight into the way that skeletal muscle atrophy occurs at the molecular level.

Project description:The loss of skeletal muscle mass during aging is a significant health concern linked to adverse outcomes in older individuals. Understanding the molecular basis of age-related muscle loss is crucial for developing strategies to prevent or reverse this debilitating condition. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a largely uncharacterized class of biomolecules that have been implicated in cellular homeostasis and dysfunction across a wide variety of tissues and cell types. To identify lncRNAs that might contribute to skeletal muscle aging we screened for lncRNAs whose expression was altered in vastus lateralis muscle from older compared to young adults. We identified FRAIL1 as an aging-induced lncRNA with high abundance in human skeletal muscle. In a cohort of healthy young and older adults, skeletal muscle FRAIL1 was most strongly expressed in older females and negatively associated with measures of muscle strength and mass. Forced expression of FRAIL1 in mouse tibialis anterior muscle elicits a dose-dependent reduction in skeletal muscle fiber size that is independent of changes in muscle fiber type. Furthermore, this reduction in muscle size is dependent on an intact region of FRAIL1 that is highly conserved across non-human primates. Unbiased transcriptional and proteomic profiling of the effects of FRAIL1 expression in mouse skeletal muscle revealed widespread changes in mRNA and protein abundance that recapitulate age-related changes in pathways and processes that are known to be altered in aging skeletal muscle. Taken together, these findings shed light on the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle aging and implicate FRAIL1 in the reduction of muscle mass during this process.

Project description:Sepsis is a common systemic inflammatory response syndrome caused by infection. It has high mortality and great harm. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has been reported to play a regulatory role in a variety of diseases and is a potential prognostic marker and therapeutic target. However, there are few data on the regulatory effect of lncRNA on sepsis. Therefore, we used transcriptome sequencing and series methods to screen and analyze lncRNAs with potential for prognostic markers in sepsis.we collected 4 sepsis patients whole blood samples and 4 healthy controls whole blood samples for transcriptome sequencing. After quality filtering of the raw sequencing data, we obtained a total of 125.581 Gb Clean Data, the average data amount of each sample was 15.698 Gb, the percentage of Q30 bases was over 93.89%, and the GC content was between 47.53% and 57.54%. Subsequently, we used HISAT2 to align the Clean Data of each sample with the human GRCH38 genome, and the alignment rate was between 96.355% and 97.986%. Through statistics, we found that the obtained lncRNAs were divided into 10 types (figure 1A), among which antisense (36.05%) and lincRNA (33.76%) were the main types.

Project description:Serum levels of interleukin-8 (IL-8) are increased in the serum of people with pancreatic cancer and associated with the loss of body weight and low muscle mass. We have identified that systemic (intraperitoneal) injection of IL-8 into mice induces significant skeletal muscle atrophy. Transcriptional profiling of muscle harvested from these same mice identified the genes and biological processes associated with this IL-8 induced atrophy including gene clusters related to chromatin modification, muscle cell differentiation, and ubiquitin ligase complex. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from the tibialis anterior muscle from vehicle-injected mice, KC-injected mice, and IL-8 injected mice. The purpose of this study was to identify the broader transcriptional networks changed in skeletal muscle in response to a systemic increase in IL-8 or KC.
