Transcriptomic analysis of porcine muscle Longissimus dorsi (LD) exposed to a single bout of endurance exercise

ABSTRACT: Acute physical exercise elicits changes in gene expression in skeletal muscles to promote metabolic changes and to repair exercise-induced muscle injuries. Here, we investigated the impact of a single bout of running exercise until exhaustion on global transcriptional profiles in porcine skeletal muscles. Using a combined microarray and candidate gene approach, we identified a suite of genes that are differentially expressed in muscles during post-exercise recovery. Thus, several members of the heat shock protein family and proteins associated with proteolytic events were significantly up-regulated, suggesting that protein breakdown, prevention of protein aggregation and stabilization of unfolded proteins are important processes for restoring cellular homeostasis. We also detected an up-regulation of genes, which have been reported to be associated with muscle cell proliferation and differentiation, possibly reflecting an activation, differentiation and fusion of satellite cells to facilitate repair of muscle damage. In addition, exercise increased expression of the nuclear hormone receptors, which regulates metabolic functions associated with lipid, carbohydrate and energy homeostasis. Finally, we observed an unanticipated involvement of long non-coding RNA transcripts, which have been implicated in RNA processing and nuclear retention of adenosine-to-inosine edited mRNAs. These findings expand the complexity of pathways affected by acute contractile activity of skeletal muscle, contributing to a better understanding of the molecular processes that occur in muscle tissue in the recovery phase.

Project description:Protein-leucine supplement ingestion following strenuous endurance exercise accentuates skeletal-muscle protein synthesis and adaptive molecular responses, but the underlying transcriptome is uncharacterized. In a randomized single-blind triple-crossover design, 12 trained men completed 100 min of high-intensity cycling then ingested either 70/15/180/30g protein/leucine/carbohydrate/fat (15LEU), 23/5/180/30g (5LEU) or 0/0/274/30g (CON) beverages during the first 90 min of a 240-min recovery period. Vastus lateralis muscle samples (30 and 240-min post-exercise) underwent transcriptome analysis by microarray followed by bioinformatic analysis. Gene expression was regulated by Protein-leucine in a dose-dependent manner impacting the inflammatory response, muscle growth and development. At 30 min, 15LEU and 5LEU vs. CON activated transcriptome networks with geneset functions involving cell-cycle arrest (Z-score 2.0-2.7; P<0.01), leukocyte maturation (1.7; P=0.007), cell viability (2.4; P=0.005), promyogenic networks encompassing myocyte differentiation and myogenin (MYOD1, MYOG), and a proteinaceous extracellular matrix, adhesion, and development programme correlated with plasma lysine, arginine, tyrosine, taurine, glutamic acid, and asparagine concentrations. High protein-leucine dose (15LEU-5LEU) activated an IL1b-centered proinflammatory network and leukocyte migration, differentiation, and survival functions (2.0-2.6; <0.001). By 240 min, the protein-leucine transcriptome was anti-inflammatory and promyogenic (IL-6, NF-kÎ², SMAD, STAT3 network inhibition), with overrepresented functions including decreased leukocyte migration and connective tissue development (-1.8-2.4; P<0.01), increased apoptosis of myeloid and muscle cells (2.2-3.0; P<0.002) and cell metabolism (2.0-2.4; P<0.01). The analysis suggests protein-leucine ingestion modulates inflammatory-myogenic regenerative processes during skeletal muscle recovery from endurance exercise. Further cellular and translational research is warranted to validate amino acid-mediated myeloid and myocellular mechanisms within skeletal-muscle functional plasticity.

Project description:Mice were subjected to 50 eccentric contractions (EC) or 50 isometric contractions (IC) using a non-invasive model, and then sacrificed 48 hours later. RNA from the tibialis anterior of 4 animals were pooled and then split into two groups for hybridization onto two separate Affymetrix MGU74Av2 chips. Control samples were contralateral to the exercised legs, and were only subjected to enough contractions to measure isometric torque. Eccentric contractions (ECs), in which a muscle is forced to lengthen while activated, result in muscle injury and, eventually, muscle strengthening and prevention of further injury. Although the mechanical basis of eccentric contraction-induced injury has been studied in detail, muscle's biological response is less well characterized. This study presents the development of a minimally-invasive model of EC injury in the mouse, follows the time course of torque recovery after an injurious bout of ECs, and uses Affymetrix microarrays to compare the gene expression profile 48 hours after ECs to both isometrically stimulated muscles and contralateral muscles. Torque dropped by about 55% immediately after the exercise bout, and recovered to initial levels 7 days later. 36 known genes were upregulated after ECs compared to contralateral and isometrically stimulated muscles, including five muscle specific genes: muscle LIM protein (MLP), Muscle Ankyrin Repeat Proteins (MARP 1 and 2; also known as cardiac ankyrin repeat protein and Arpp/Ankrd2, respectively), Xin, and Myosin Binding Protein H. The time courses of MLP and MARP expression after the injury bout (determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction) indicate that these genes are rapidly induced, reaching a peak expression level of 6-11 times contralateral values 12-24 hours after the EC bout and returning to baseline within 72 hours. Very little gene induction was seen after either isometric activation or passive stretch, indicating that the MLP and MARP genes may play an important and specific role in the biological response of muscle to EC-induced injury.
