Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction in skeletal muscle fibres occurs with both healthy aging and a range of neuromuscular diseases. The impact of mitochondrial dysfunction in skeletal muscle and the way muscle fibres adapt to this dysfunction is important to understand disease mechanisms and to develop therapeutic interventions. Furthermore, interactions between mitochondrial dysfunction and skeletal muscle biology, in mitochondrial myopathy, likely have important implications for normal muscle function and physiology. In this review, we will try to give an overview of what is known to date about these interactions including metabolic remodelling, mitochondrial morphology, mitochondrial turnover, cellular processes and muscle cell structure and function. Each of these topics is at a different stage of understanding, with some being well researched and understood, and others in their infancy. Furthermore, some of what we know comes from disease models. Whilst some findings are confirmed in humans, where this is not yet the case, we must be cautious in interpreting findings in the context of human muscle and disease. Here, our goal is to discuss what is known, highlight what is unknown and give a perspective on the future direction of research in this area.

Srivastava A, Singla DK. PTEN-AKT pathway attenuates apoptosis and adverse remodeling in ponatinib-induced skeletal muscle toxicity following BMP-7 treatment. Physiol Rep 2023; 11:e15629. [PMID: 36945866 PMCID: PMC10031244 DOI: 10.14814/phy2.15629] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 02/06/2023] [Indexed: 03/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) including ponatinib are commonly used to treat cancer patients. Unfortunately, TKIs induce cardiac as well as skeletal muscle dysfunction as a side effect. Therefore, detailed mechanistic studies are required to understand its pathogenesis and to develop a therapeutic treatment. The current study was undertaken to examine whether ponatinib induces apoptosis and apoptotic mechanisms both in vitro and in vivo models and furthermore to test the potential of bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP-7) as a possible treatment option for its attenuation. Sol8 cells, a mouse myogenic cell line was exposed to ponatinib to generate an apoptotic cell culture model and were subsequently treated with BMP-7 to understand its protective effects. For the in vivo model, C57BL/6J mice were administered with ponatinib to understand apoptosis, cell signaling apoptotic mechanisms, and adverse muscle remodeling and its attenuation with BMP-7. TUNEL staining, immunohistochemistry (IHC), and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methods were used. Our data show significantly (p < 0.05) increased TUNEL staining, caspase-3, BAX/Bcl2 ratio in the in vitro model. Furthermore, our in vivo muscle data show ponatinib-induced muscle myopathy, and loss in muscle function. The observed muscle myopathy was associated with increased apoptosis, caspase-3 staining, and BAX/Bcl-2 ratio as confirmed with IHC and RT-PCR. Furthermore, our data show a significant (p < 0.05) increase in the involvement of cell signaling apoptotic regulator protein PTEN and a decrease in cell survival protein AKT. These results suggest that increased apoptosis following ponatinib treatment showed an increase in skeletal muscle remodeling, sarcopenia, and fibrosis. Furthermore, BMP-7 treatment significantly (p < 0.05) attenuated ponatinib-induced apoptosis, BAX/Bcl2 ratio, decreased PTEN, and increased cell survival protein AKT, decreased adverse muscle remodeling, and improved muscle function. Overall, we provide evidence that ponatinib-induces apoptosis leading to sarcopenia and muscle myopathy with decreased function which was attenuated by BMP-7.

Involvement of protein S-nitrosylation in regulating beef apoptosis during postmortem aging. Food Chem 2020; 326:126975. [PMID: 32413758 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2020.126975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2020] [Revised: 04/29/2020] [Accepted: 05/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
This study was the first attempt to explore the effect of protein S-nitrosylation on the progress of apoptosis in postmortem beef semimembranosus muscle (SM). Five beef SM were incubated with S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO, nitric oxide donor), control, or Nω-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester hydrochloride (l-NAME, nitric oxide synthase inhibitor). Results suggest that compared to the control, more chromatin condensation, nucleusfragmentation, apoptoticbody formation, and mitochondrialswelling were observed in the l-NAME group while these apoptosis-related morphological changes were retarded in the GSNO group. Notably, there were fewer apoptotic nuclei in the GSNO group and more apoptotic nuclei in the l-NAME group compared to the control (P < 0.05). Additionally, caspase-3 and -9 activities and caspase-3 activation were greatly decreased by GSNO treatment and increased by l-NAME treatment (P < 0.05). The morphological and biochemical results indicate that protein S-nitrosylation could play a negative regulatory role in beef apoptosis during postmortem aging.

Anti-apoptotic Effects of Human Wharton's Jelly-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Skeletal Muscle Cells Mediated via Secretion of XCL1. Mol Ther 2016; 24:1550-60.

Abstract
The role of Wharton's jelly-derived human mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) in inhibiting muscle cell death has been elucidated in this study. Apoptosis induced by serum deprivation in mouse skeletal myoblast cell lines (C2C12) was significantly reduced when the cell lines were cocultured with WJ-MSCs. Antibody arrays indicated high levels of chemokine (C motif) ligand (XCL1) secretion by cocultured WJ-MSCs and XCL1 protein treatment resulted in complete inhibition of apoptosis in serum-starved C2C12 cells. Apoptosis of C2C12 cells and loss of differentiated C2C12 myotubes induced by lovastatin, another muscle cell death inducer, was also inhibited by XCL1 treatment. However, XCL1 treatment did not inhibit apoptosis of cell lines other than C2C12. When XCL1-siRNA pretreated WJ-MSCs were cocultured with serum-starved C2C12 cells, apoptosis was not inhibited, thus confirming that XCL1 is a key factor in preventing C2C12 cell apoptosis. We demonstrated the therapeutic effect of XCL1 on the zebrafish myopathy model, generated by knock down of a causative gene ADSSL1. Furthermore, the treatment of XCL1 resulted in significant recovery of the zebrafish skeletal muscle defects. These results suggest that human WJ-MSCs and XCL1 protein may act as promising and novel therapeutic agents for treatment of myopathies and other skeletal muscle diseases.

Abstract
In this study, we investigated whether or not melatonin inhibits apoptotic and autophagic cell death in C2C12 murine myoblast cells. Treatment of cells with S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP), an NO donor, was shown to induce cell death, and treatment with melatonin (100 μm) significantly attenuated the occurrence of NO-induced cell death. Decreased p-Akt expression in response to NO was also arrested by melatonin. Under these conditions, p-Bad (Ser 136) expression increased with melatonin treatment prior to NO treatment. Treatment with Akt inhibitors (LY 294002, wortmannin) plus melatonin reduced p-Akt expression. Compared with NO treatment, Bcl-2 expression increased with melatonin treatment, while Bax expression was inhibited by melatonin treatment. Expression of catalase and Mn-superoxide dismutase (SOD) was elevated with melatonin treatment, whereas Cu/Zn-SOD expression decreased with melatonin, lower than NO treatment, respectively. Next, we investigated the question of whether or not melatonin may restrain autophagic cell death in C2C12 cells. Nutrient starvation induced a rise in expression of the microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3)-II; however, melatonin treatment suppressed LC3-II expression by nutrient deprivation. Expression of Bcl-2, Bax, catalase, and Cu/Zn-SODs coincided with results of apoptotic cell death. Together, these results suggest that melatonin protects against apoptotic and autophagic cell death through the common pathway resulted in the increment of Bcl-2 expression and the reduction of Bax expression in C2C12 murine myoblast cells.

Abstract
Ubiquitin ligase Atrogin1/Muscle Atrophy F-box (MAFbx) up-regulation is required for skeletal muscle atrophy but substrates and function during the atrophic process are poorly known. The transcription factor MyoD controls myogenic stem cell function and differentiation, and seems necessary to maintain the differentiated phenotype of adult fast skeletal muscle fibres. We previously showed that MAFbx mediates MyoD proteolysis in vitro. Here we present evidence that MAFbx targets MyoD for degradation in several models of skeletal muscle atrophy. In cultured myotubes undergoing atrophy, MAFbx expression increases, leading to a cytoplasmic-nuclear shuttling of MAFbx and a selective suppression of MyoD. Conversely, transfection of myotubes with sh-RNA-mediated MAFbx gene silencing (shRNAi) inhibited MyoD proteolysis linked to atrophy. Furthermore, overexpression of a mutant MyoDK133R lacking MAFbx-mediated ubiquitination prevents atrophy of mouse primary myotubes and skeletal muscle fibres in vivo. Regarding the complex role of MyoD in adult skeletal muscle plasticity and homeostasis, its rapid suppression by MAFbx seems to be a major event leading to skeletal muscle wasting. Our results point out MyoD as the second MAFbx skeletal muscle target by which powerful therapies could be developed.

[PMID: 19302811 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2009.01.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 91] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2008] [Revised: 12/11/2008] [Accepted: 01/26/2009] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Apoptotic signaling proteins were evaluated in postmitotic skeletal myotubes to test the hypothesis that oxidative stress induced by H(2)O(2) activates both caspase-dependent and caspase-independent apoptotic proteins in differentiated C2C12 myotubes. We hypothesized that oxidative stress would decrease anti-apoptotic protein levels in C2C12 myotubes. MAIN METHODS Apoptotic regulatory factors and apoptosis-associated proteins including Bcl-2, Bax, Apaf-1, XIAP, ARC, cleaved PARP, p53, p21(Cip1/Waf1), c-Myc, HSP70, CuZnSOD, and MnSOD protein content were measured by immunoblots. KEY FINDINGS H(2)O(2) induced apoptosis in myotubes as shown by DNA laddering and an elevation of apoptotic DNA fragmentation. Cell death ELISA showed increase in the extent of apoptotic DNA fragmentation following treatment with H(2)O(2). Treatment with 4 mM of H(2)O(2) for 24 or 96 h caused increase in Bax (56%, 227%), cytochrome c (282%, 701%), Smac/DIABLO (155%, 260%), caspase-3 protease activity (51%, 141%), and nuclear and cytosolic p53 (719%, 1581%) levels in the myotubes. As an estimate of the mitochondrial AIF release to the cytosol, AIF protein content measured in the mitochondria-free cytosolic fraction was elevated by 65% after 96 h treatment with 4 mM of H(2)O(2). AIF measured in the nuclear protein fraction increased by 74% and 352% following treatment with 4 mM of H(2)O(2) for 24 and 96 h, respectively. Bcl-2 declined in myotubes by 61% and 69% after 24 or 96 h of treatment in 4 mM H(2)O(2), respectively. SIGNIFICANCE These findings indicate that both caspase-dependent and caspase-independent mechanisms are involved in coordinating the activation of apoptosis induced by H(2)O(2) in differentiated myotubes.

Abstract
Striated skeletal is subject to nonlethal cycles of atrophy in response to a variety of physiological and pathological stimuli, including: starvation, disuse, denervation and inflammation. These cells can also undergo cell death in response to appropriate developmental signals or specific pathological insults. Most of the insights gained into the control of vertebrate skeletal muscle atrophy and death have resulted from experimental interventions rather than natural processes. In contrast, the intersegmental muscles (ISMs) of moths are giant cells that initiate sequential and distinct programs of atrophy and death at the end of metamorphosis as a normal component of development. This model has provided fundamental information about the control, biochemistry, molecular biology and anatomy of naturally occurring atrophy and death in vivo. The ISMs have provided a good complement to studies in vertebrates and may provide insights into clinically relevant disorders.

Abstract
Inflammatory muscle diseases (IMD), including dermatomyositis (DM) and polymyositis (PM), affect skeletal muscle, leading to profound tissue modification. The etiology of IMD is unknown, but multiple steps of the disease pathogenesis have been identified. The main alterations involve the immune response. Cellular infiltrates found in the muscle provide strong evidence for the involvement of a preferential immune mechanism of muscle damage. The pathologic differences found between PM and DM indicate a different role played by cell-mediated and humoral immune alterations. It is well accepted that in the pathogenetic pathway both host genes and environmental factors are involved. Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is a complex process that plays a key role in many physiological events. It regulates the turnover of immune cells and is one of the mechanisms involved in ensuring a competent, non-autoreactive repertoire of lymphocytes. Apoptosis as a mechanism of muscle fibre death has been described in several neuromuscular disorders and muscular dystrophies, and evidence of a lack of apoptosis in IMD suggests a failure of apoptotic clearance of inflammatory cells playing a role in the maintenance of chronic cytotoxic muscle fibre damage. Most likely, the failure of apoptosis seems to be the main hallmark of the pathogenesis of IMD.
