Ishido M. Cyclin D3 Colocalizes with Myogenin and p21 in Skeletal Muscle Satellite Cells during Early-Stage Functional Overload. Acta Histochem Cytochem 2023; 56:111-119.

Abstract
Myogenic cell differentiation is modulated by multiple regulatory factors, such as myogenin, p21, and cyclin D3 during myogenesis in vitro. It is also recognized that myogenin and p21 play important roles in regulating muscle satellite cell (SC) differentiation during overload-induced muscle hypertrophy in vivo. However, the expression patterns and functional role of cyclin D3 in the progress of muscle hypertrophy remain unclear. Thus, the present study investigated cyclin D3 expression in skeletal muscles during early-stage functional overload. Plantaris muscles were exposed to functional overload due to ablation of the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles. As a result, cyclin D3 expression was detected in the nuclei of SCs but not in myonuclei on day 1 after surgery. Cyclin D3 expression, after functional overload, gradually increased, reaching a maximum on day 7 along with myogenin expression. Moreover, in response to the functional overload, cyclin D3 was expressed simultaneously with myogenin and p21 in SC nuclei. Therefore, the present study suggests that cyclin D3 with myogenin and p21 may interactively regulate SC differentiation during early-stage functional overload.

Abstract
NEW FINDINGS What is the central question of this study? Does the hormone Klotho affect the myogenic response of muscle cells to mechanical loading or exercise? What is the main finding and its importance? Klotho prevents direct, mechanical activation of genes that regulate muscle differentiation, including genes that encode the myogenic regulatory factor myogenin and proteins in the canonical Wnt signalling pathway. Similarly, elevated levels of klotho expression in vivo prevent the exercise-induced increase in myogenin-expressing cells and reduce exercise-induced activation of the Wnt pathway. These findings demonstrate a new mechanism through which the responses of muscle to the mechanical environment are regulated. ABSTRACT Muscle growth is influenced by changes in the mechanical environment that affect the expression of genes that regulate myogenesis. We tested whether the hormone Klotho could influence the response of muscle to mechanical loading. Applying mechanical loads to myoblasts in vitro increased RNA encoding transcription factors that are expressed in activated myoblasts (Myod) and in myogenic cells that have initiated terminal differentiation (Myog). However, application of Klotho to myoblasts prevented the loading-induced activation of Myog without affecting loading-induced activation of Myod. This indicates that elevated Klotho inhibits mechanically-induced differentiation of myogenic cells. Elevated Klotho also reduced the transcription of genes encoding proteins involved in the canonical Wnt pathway or their target genes (Wnt9a, Wnt10a, Ccnd1). Because the canonical Wnt pathway promotes differentiation of myogenic cells, these findings indicate that Klotho inhibits the differentiation of myogenic cells experiencing mechanical loading. We then tested whether these effects of Klotho occurred in muscles of mice experiencing high-intensity interval training (HIIT) by comparing wild-type mice and klotho transgenic mice. The expression of a klotho transgene combined with HIIT synergized to tremendously elevate numbers of Pax7+ satellite cells and activated MyoD+ cells. However, transgene expression prevented the increase in myogenin+ cells caused by HIIT in wild-type mice. Furthermore, transgene expression diminished the HIIT-induced activation of the canonical Wnt pathway in Pax7+ satellite cells. Collectively, these findings show that Klotho inhibits loading- or exercise-induced activation of muscle differentiation and indicate a new mechanism through which the responses of muscle to the mechanical environment are regulated.

Abstract
Hesperidin is a naturally occurring bioactive compound that may have an impact on cardiovascular disease risks, but the evidence is not conclusive. To investigate further, this study aimed to explore the effects of hesperidin supplementation on cardiovascular risk factors in adults. A comprehensive search was conducted up to August 2022 using relevant keywords in databases such as Scopus, PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and ISI Web of Science for all randomized controlled trials (RCTs). The results showed that hesperidin supplementation had a significant effect on reducing serum triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density cholesterol (LDL), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and systolic blood pressure (SBP), whereas weight was increased. However, no significant effect was observed on high-density cholesterol (HDL), waist circumference (WC), fasting blood glucose (FBG), insulin, homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), body mass index (BMI), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP). The study also found that an effective dosage of hesperidin supplementation was around 1,000 mg/d, and a more effective duration of supplementation was more than eight weeks to decrease insulin levels. Furthermore, the duration of intervention of more than six weeks was effective in decreasing FBG levels.

Abstract
Trichinella spiralis (T. spiralis)-induced myopathy is an inflammatory myopathy that is difficult to treat unless the parasite is combated in its early intestinal phase before it reaches the muscles. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of local mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy on T. spiralis-induced inflammatory myopathy in rats. Rats were divided into four groups: Group 1 (non-infected non-treated group); Group 2 (infected non-treated group); Group 3 (infected albendazole (ABZ)-treated group); and Group 4 (infected MSC-treated group). Their muscle status was assessed physiologically with the righting reflex and electromyography (EMG), parasitologically with the total muscle larval count, histopathologically with hematoxylin and eosin and Mallory's trichrome stains, as well as immunohistochemically for myogenin as a marker of muscle regeneration. Additionally, serum muscle enzymes creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), as well as muscle matrix metalloproteinases MMP1 and MMP9, were assayed. Finally, the immunological response was assessed by measuring the levels of the muscle inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), interferon-gamma (INF-γ), and interleukin-4 (IL-4). Our findings revealed that MSC therapy markedly improved muscle EMG and righting reflex, as well as the histopathological appearance of the muscles, reduced inflammatory cellular infiltrates, and increased myogenin immunostaining. It also reduced serum CK and LDH levels, as well as muscle INF-γ, TNF-α, IL-4, MMP1, and MMP9 levels. However, it had no effect on the total muscle larval count. Accordingly, due to its anti-inflammatory properties and muscle-regenerative effect, MSC therapy could be a promising new remedy for T. spiralis-induced myopathy.

Abstract
Satellite cells (SC) are of importance for muscular adaptation to various forms of exercise. A single bout of high-force eccentric exercise has been shown to induce SC activation and, for electrically stimulated exercise, SC differentiation. PURPOSE This study aimed to assess if one bout of concentric/eccentric exercise with damaging eccentric overload (CON/ECC+) provides a sufficient stimulus to induce SC activation, proliferation and differentiation. METHODS Biopsies from the vastus lateralis muscle of recreationally active males were obtained in the rested condition and again from the contralateral leg seven days after exhaustive concentric/eccentric (CON/ECC, n = 15) or CON/ECC+ (n = 15) leg extension exercise and in a non-exercising control group (CG, n = 10). Total SC number (Pax7+), activated (Pax7+/MyoD+), and differentiating (myogenin+) SCs, fiber type distribution, and myofibers expressing neonatal myosin heavy chain (MHCneo) were determined immunohistochemically. Creatine kinase (CK) and myoglobin were measured in venous blood. Isokinetic strength tests were repeatedly conducted. RESULTS Significant increases in CK and myoglobin (p = 0.001) indicated myofiber damage while maximal strength was not impaired. Only after CON/ECC+, SC content (p = 0.019) and SC related to type II fibers (p = 0.011) were significantly increased. A significant increase in the proportion of activated SCs occurred after CON/ECC+ only (p = 0.003), the increase being significantly (p < 0.05) different from the changes after CON/ECC and in CG. The number of differentiating SC and MHCneo remained unchanged. CONCLUSION Eccentric overload during leg extension exercise induced significant SC activation, increases in SC content and in SC number related to type II myofibers. However, there were no signs of increased SC differentiation or formation of new myofibers.

Abstract
2S-Hesperidin is the main flavonoid of orange (Citrus sinensis). Previous researches have pointed its effects in muscle development and fat accumulation reduction, although most of these results have not been assessed in humans. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of chronic (8-weeks) intake of 2S-hesperidin on amateur cyclists' body composition. A double-blind, parallel and randomized trial, was carried out with 40 amateur cyclists that were divided in two groups, one taking 2S-hesperidin (500 mg d-1, n = 20) and another taking placebo (500 mg d-1 microcellulose, n = 20) for 8 weeks. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and anthropometric measurements were used to assess the effect of both treatments on body composition. In addition, the resting metabolic rate was measured. In comparison to placebo, DXA analysis showed a decrease in percentage body fat (%BF) (-10.4%; p = 0.035) and lower limb fat mass (-10.5%; p = 0.029) in favour of 2S-hesperidin. After evaluation of anthropometric data, a decrease in %BF (-3.7%; p = 0.006), total body fat (-3.0%; p = 0.047), ∑ of 8 skinfolds (-6.1%; p = 0.008) was observed in 2S-hesperidin group, but not in placebo. Additionally, there was an increase in muscle mass percentage (1.0%; p = <0.001) and total muscle mass (1.7%; p = 0.011) after ingestion of 2S-hesperidin, with no changes in placebo. Chronic intake of 2S-hesperidin decreased fat mass in amateur cyclists, evaluated through different body composition measurement methodologies (DXA and anthropometry). In addition, 2S-hesperidin supplementation showed a promoting effect on muscle development.

Exercise Training in Obese Rats Does Not Induce Browning at Thermoneutrality and Induces a Muscle-Like Signature in Brown Adipose Tissue. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2020; 11:97. [PMID: 32265830 PMCID: PMC7099615 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2020.00097] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2019] [Accepted: 02/14/2020] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Aim: Exercise training elicits diverse effects on brown (BAT) and white adipose tissue (WAT) physiology in rodents housed below their thermoneutral zone (i.e., 28-32°C). In these conditions, BAT is chronically hyperactive and, unlike human residence, closer to thermoneutrality. Therefore, we set out to determine the effects of exercise training in obese animals at 28°C (i.e., thermoneutrality) on BAT and WAT in its basal (i.e., inactive) state. Methods: Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 12) were housed at thermoneutrality from 3 weeks of age and fed a high-fat diet. At 12 weeks of age half these animals were randomized to 4-weeks of swim-training (1 h/day, 5 days per week). Following a metabolic assessment interscapular and perivascular BAT and inguinal (I)WAT were taken for analysis of thermogenic genes and the proteome. Results: Exercise attenuated weight gain but did not affect total fat mass or thermogenic gene expression. Proteomics revealed an impact of exercise training on 2-oxoglutarate metabolic process, mitochondrial respiratory chain complex IV, carbon metabolism, and oxidative phosphorylation. This was accompanied by an upregulation of multiple proteins involved in skeletal muscle physiology in BAT and an upregulation of muscle specific markers (i.e., Myod1, CkM, Mb, and MyoG). UCP1 mRNA was undetectable in IWAT with proteomics highlighting changes to DNA binding, the positive regulation of apoptosis, HIF-1 signaling and cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction. Conclusion: Exercise training reduced weight gain in obese animals at thermoneutrality and is accompanied by an oxidative signature in BAT which is accompanied by a muscle-like signature rather than induction of thermogenic genes. This may represent a new, UCP1-independent pathway through which BAT physiology is regulated by exercise training.

Abstract
Little is known about changes in parathyroid cells when calcimimetics are withdrawn. We examined the response of parathyroid glands to cinacalcet (Cina) withdrawal in uremic Sprague-Dawley rats fed a high-phosphate diet to develop secondary hyperparathyroidism and divided into groups treated with vehicle (UC), Cina, and Cina and maxacalcitol (Maxa), a vitamin D receptor activator (CiNa + Maxa). After 2 wk of treatment, vehicle and Cina were withdrawn and Maxa was continued. Rats were analyzed immediately (day 0) and 7 days (day 7) after withdrawal. The Cina and CiNa + Maxa groups had significantly lower parathyroid hormone (PTH) than the UC group on day 0, although PTH in the Cina group reached UC levels on day 7. On day 0, there were significantly more proliferating cell nuclear antigen-positive cells in the UC group compared with normal controls, and this increase was significantly suppressed in the Cina and CiNa + Maxa groups. On day 7, the Cina group, but not the CiNa + Maxa group, showed a significant increase in proliferating cell nuclear antigen-positive cells compared with the UC group. This increase was related to parathyroid cell diameter regression to UC levels, whereas combination treatment maintained diameter suppression. These results indicate that parathyroid growth activity is stimulated by Cina withdrawal, although the PTH level was not further increased. Continuous administration of Cina may be required for optimal control of secondary hyperparathyroidism, and simultaneous use of a vitamin D receptor activator may be advisable during Cina withdrawal.

Abstract
The purpose of this work was to determine the effect of resistance exercise (RE)-induced hormonal changes on the satellite cell (SC) myogenic state in response to muscle damage. Untrained men (n = 10, 22 ± 3 yr) and women (n = 9, 21 ± 4 yr) completed 2 sessions of 80 unilateral maximal eccentric knee extensions followed by either an upper body RE protocol (EX) or a 20-min rest (CON). Muscle samples were collected and analyzed for protein content of Pax7, MyoD, myogenin, cyclin D1, and p21 before (PRE), 12 h, and 24 h after the session was completed. Serum testosterone, growth hormone, cortisol, and myoglobin concentrations were analyzed at PRE, post-damage, immediately after (IP), and 15, 30, and 60 min after the session was completed. Testosterone was significantly (P < 0.05) higher immediately after the session in EX vs. CON for men. A significant time × sex × condition interaction was found for MyoD with an increase in EX (men) and CON (women) at 12 h. A significant time × condition interaction was found for Pax7, with a decrease in EX and increase in CON at 24 h. A significant time effect was found for myogenin, p21, and cyclin D1. Myogenin and p21 were increased at 12 and 24 h, and cyclin D1 was increased at 12 h. These results suggest that the acute RE-induced hormonal response can be important for men to promote SC proliferation after muscle damage but had no effect in women. Markers of SC differentiation appeared unaffected by the hormonal response but increased in response to muscle damage.

Abstract
Background Critical illness myopathy (CIM) is associated with severe skeletal muscle wasting and impaired function in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The mechanisms underlying CIM remain incompletely understood. To elucidate the biological activities occurring at the transcriptional level in the skeletal muscle of ICU patients with CIM, the gene expression profiles, potential upstream regulators, and enrichment pathways were characterized using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). We also compared the skeletal muscle gene signatures in ICU patients with CIM and genes perturbed by mechanical loading in one leg of the ICU patients, with an aim of reducing the loss of muscle function. Methods RNA-seq was used to assess gene expression changes in tibialis anterior skeletal muscle samples from seven critically ill, immobilized, and mechanically ventilated ICU patients with CIM and matched control subjects. We also examined skeletal muscle gene expression for both legs of six ICU patients with CIM, where one leg was mechanically loaded for 10 h/day for an average of 9 days. Results In total, 6257 of 17,221 detected genes were differentially expressed (84% upregulated; p < 0.05 and fold change ≥ 1.5) in skeletal muscle from ICU patients with CIM when compared to control subjects. The differentially expressed genes were highly associated with gene changes identified in patients with myopathy, sepsis, long-term inactivity, polymyositis, tumor, and repeat exercise resistance. Upstream regulator analysis revealed that the CIM signature could be a result of the activation of MYOD1, p38 MAPK, or treatment with dexamethasone. Passive mechanical loading only reversed expression of 0.74% of the affected genes (46 of 6257 genes). Conclusions RNA-seq analysis revealed that the marked muscle atrophy and weakness observed in ICU patients with CIM were associated with the altered expression of genes involved in muscle contraction, newly identified E3 ligases, autophagy and calpain systems, apoptosis, and chaperone expression. In addition, MYOD1, p38 MAPK, and dexamethasone were identified as potential upstream regulators of skeletal muscle gene expression in ICU patients with CIM. Mechanical loading only marginally affected the skeletal muscle transcriptome profiling of ICU patients diagnosed with CIM.

Yoo YM, Jung EM, Jeung EB. Rapamycin-induced autophagy decreases Myf5 and MyoD proteins in C2C12 myoblast cells. Toxicol In Vitro 2019; 58:132-141. [PMID: 30905858 DOI: 10.1016/j.tiv.2019.03.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2018] [Revised: 03/20/2019] [Accepted: 03/20/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Rapamycin is an immunosuppressant that inhibits the mammalian or mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) protein kinase and extends lifespan in organisms including mice. Myf5 and MyoD act as muscle-specific transcriptional factors for skeletal muscle differentiation. In this study, we determined whether rapamycin-induced autophagy causes the decrease of Myf5 and MyoD protein in C2C12 myoblast cells. Rapamycin induced a significant increase in the expression of the microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) II protein in a dose-dependent manner for 12 h. Rapamycin treatment also significantly increased p-ERK, p-Akt, and catalase expressions, and decreased Mn-SOD expression in a dose-dependent manner. Bax expression was significantly high compared to Bcl-2 expression in a dose-dependent manner of rapamycin for 12 h. For further study of rapamycin-induced autophagy in C2C12 myoblast cells, we investigated rapamycin treatment for 24, 36, and 48 h. Cell viability did not change with rapamycin treatment for 24, 36, and 48 h. Rapamycin-induced LC3-II, Beclin-1, Bax, and Bcl-2 proteins were significantly increased compared to without rapamycin. p-ERK expression increased with rapamycin treatment for 24 and 36 h compared to that without rapamycin, but decreased for 48 h. p-Akt expression decreased with rapamycin treatment for 36 and 48 h compared to that without rapamycin. In the same conditions, rapamycin-induced autophagy significantly reduced the Myf5 and MyoD proteins. Together, these results suggest that rapamycin-induced autophagy results in the decrease of Myf5 and MyoD proteins in C2C12 myoblast cells.

Abstract
Heat stress markedly impairs the growth performance of broilers, such as the reduction of breast muscle mass and yield. The aim of this study was to examine the molecular mechanism of depressed muscle mass and yield caused by heat stress. A total of 144 (28-day-old) male broilers were allocated randomly into 3 treatment groups: (1) the normal control group (environment temperature was 22°C), (2) the heat stress group (environment temperature was 32°C), (3) the pair-fed group (environment temperature was 22°C and pair-fed to heat stress group). The experiment lasted for 14 d (from the age of 28 to 42 d). After 14 d of heat exposure, heat stress decreased (P < 0.05) broiler average daily gain, breast muscle mass, and muscle yield, and increased (P < 0.05) feed to gain ratio. After 14 d of heat exposure, heat stress increased (P < 0.05) the activities of aspartate aminotransferase and the concentrations of uric acid and most amino acids in serum, and reduced (P < 0.05) the concentration of insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) in serum. Additionally, heat stress decreased (P < 0.05) the mRNA expressions of IGF-1, IGF-1 receptor, insulin receptor substrate 1, mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), the 70 kD ribosomal protein S6 kinase, myogenic differentiation, myogenin, solute carrier family 38 member 2, solute carrier family 7 member 5, and solute carrier family 3 member 2 of the breast muscle. In conclusion, chronic heat stress resulted in lower breast muscle mass and yield, and decreased muscle protein synthesis and amino acid transportation by downregulating IGFs-mTOR signal pathway. These findings have important practical significance in discovering effective means to alleviate muscle loss caused by chronic heat stress.

Abstract
Skeletal muscle is primarily composed of large myofibers containing thousands of post-mitotic nuclei distributed throughout a common cytoplasm. Protein production and localization in specialized myofiber regions is crucial for muscle function. Myonuclei differ in transcriptional activity and protein accumulation, but how these differences among nuclei sharing a cytoplasm are achieved is unknown. Regulated nuclear import of proteins is one potential mechanism for regulating transcription spatially and temporally in individual myonuclei. The best-characterized nuclear localization signal (NLS) in proteins is the classical NLS (cNLS), but many other NLS motifs exist. We examined cNLS and non-cNLS reporter protein import using multinucleated muscle cells generated in vitro, revealing that cNLS and non-cNLS nuclear import differs among nuclei in the same cell. Investigation of cNLS nuclear import rates in isolated myofibers ex vivo confirmed differences in nuclear import rates among myonuclei. Analyzing nuclear import throughout myogenesis revealed that cNLS and non-cNLS import varies during differentiation. Taken together, our results suggest that both spatial and temporal regulation of nuclear import pathways are important in muscle cell differentiation and protein regionalization in myofibers.

Abstract
Summary Objective: The aim was to evaluate the effectiveness of the experimental synergists muscle ablation model to promote muscle hypertrophy, determine the period of greatest hypertrophy and its influence on muscle fiber types and determine differences in bilateral and unilateral removal to reduce the number of animals used in this model. Method: Following the application of the eligibility criteria for the mechanical overload of the plantar muscle in rats, nineteen papers were included in the review. Results: The results reveal a greatest hypertrophy occurring between days 12 and 15, and based on the findings, synergist muscle ablation is an efficient model for achieving rapid hypertrophy and the contralateral limb can be used as there was no difference between unilateral and bilateral surgery, which reduces the number of animals used in this model. Conclusion: This model differs from other overload models (exercise and training) regarding the characteristics involved in the hypertrophy process (acute) and result in a chronic muscle adaptation with selective regulation and modification of fast-twitch fibers in skeletal muscle. This is an efficient and rapid model for compensatory hypertrophy.

Abstract
Glucocorticoids (GC) are a frontline therapy for numerous acute and chronic diseases because of their demonstrated efficacy at reducing systemic inflammation. An unintended side effect of GC therapy is the stimulation of skeletal muscle atrophy. Pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for GC-induced skeletal muscle atrophy have been extensively investigated, and the ability to treat patients with GC without unintended muscle atrophy has yet to be realized. We have reported that a single, standard-of-care dose of Methylprednisolone increases in vivo expression of NF-κB-inducing kinase (NIK), an important upstream regulatory kinase controlling NF-κB activation, along with other key muscle catabolic regulators such as Atrogin-1 and MuRF1 that induce skeletal muscle proteolysis. Here, we provide experimental evidence that overexpressing NIK by intramuscular injection of recombinant human NIK via adenoviral vector in mouse tibialis anterior muscle induces a 30% decrease in the average fiber cross-sectional area that is associated with increases in mRNA expression of skeletal muscle atrophy biomarkers MuRF1, Atrogin-1, myostatin and Gadd45. A single injection of GC induced NIK mRNA and protein within 2 h, with the increased NIK localized to nuclear and sarcolemmal locations within muscle fibers. Daily GC injections induced skeletal muscle fore limb weakness as early as 3 days with similar atrophy of muscle fibers as observed with NIK overexpression. NIK overexpression in primary human skeletal muscle myotubes increased skeletal muscle atrophy biomarkers, while NIK knockdown significantly attenuated GC-induced increases in NIK and Atrogin-1. These results suggest that NIK may be a novel, previously unrecognized mediator of GC-induced skeletal muscle atrophy.

Abstract
Aquaporin-4 (AQP4) is a selective water channel that is located on the plasma membrane of myofibers in skeletal muscle and is bound to α1-syntrophin. It is considered that AQP4 is involved in the modulation of homeostasis in myofibers through the regulation of water transport and osmotic pressure. However, it remains unclear whether AQP4 expression is altered by skeletal muscle hypertrophy to modulate water homeostasis in myofibers. The present study investigated the effect of muscle hypertrophy on the changes in AQP4 and α1-syntrophin expression patterns in myofibers. Novel findings indicated in the present study were as follows: 1) Expression levels of AQP4 and α1-syntrophin were stably maintained in hypertrophied muscles, and 2) AQP4 was not expressed in the myofibers containing the slow-type myosin heavy chain isoform (MHC) with or without the presence of fast-type MHC. The present study suggests that AQP4 may regulate the efficiency of water transport in hypertrophied myofibers through its interaction with α1-syntrophin. In addition, this study suggests that AQP4 expression may be inhibited by a regulatory mechanism activated under physiological conditions that induces the expression of slow-type MHC in skeletal muscles.

Abstract
The purpose of the present studies was to determine the effect of various nonhypertrophic exercise stimuli on satellite cell (SC) pool activity in human skeletal muscle. Previously untrained men and women (men: 29 ± 9 yr and women: 29 ± 2 yr, n = 7 each) completed 6 wk of very low-volume high-intensity sprint interval training. In a separate study, recreationally active men (n = 16) and women (n = 3) completed 6 wk of either traditional moderate-intensity continuous exercise (n = 9, 21 ± 4 yr) or low-volume sprint interval training (n = 10, 21 ± 2 yr). Muscle biopsies were obtained from the vastus lateralis before and after training. The fiber type-specific SC response to training was determined, as was the activity of the SC pool using immunofluorescent microscopy of muscle cross sections. Training did not induce hypertrophy, as assessed by muscle cross-sectional area, nor did the SC pool expand in any group. However, there was an increase in the number of active SCs after each intervention. Specifically, the number of activated (Pax7(+)/MyoD(+), P ≤ 0.05) and differentiating (Pax7(-)/MyoD(+), P ≤ 0.05) SCs increased after each training intervention. Here, we report evidence of activated and cycling SCs that may or may not contribute to exercise-induced adaptations while the SC pool remains constant after three nonhypertrophic exercise training protocols.

Abstract
To enable dynamic regulation of muscle mass and myofiber repair following injury, a satellite cell precursor population exists to supply additional nuclei. Activated satellite cells express many genes and associated proteins necessary for maturation and incorporation into the damaged fiber. There is little knowledge about the response of these markers following whole-body resistance exercise training. We investigated the impact of 12 weeks of progressive whole-body resistance training on the expression of MRFs, PAX7, NCAM, and FA1, incorporating both acute and chronic resistance exercise components. Ten young recreationally active males (21.2 ± 3.5 years) performed 12 weeks of whole-body resistance training at 70-85% of their predetermined one-repetition maximum (1RM). At the initiation and completion of the training period, muscular strength was assessed by RM and dynamometer testing, and vastus lateralis samples were obtained prior to and 3 h following an acute resistance exercise test (both whole-body and isometric exercises). Increased mRNA expression of PAX7 (threefold), NCAM (threefold), MYF5 (threefold), MYOD (threefold) and MYOGENIN (twofold) was observed 3 h after the acute resistance exercise test, both pre and posttraining. Similarly, PAX7 (11-fold) and FA1 (twofold) protein abundance increased after acute exercise, while resting NCAM (eightfold) and FA1 (threefold) protein abundance increased following 12 weeks of resistance training. It is possible that these molecular changes are primarily due to the preceding exercise bout, and are not modified by long-term or whole-body exercise training.

Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with a risk of neurodegenerative disease. Some suggest a link between TBI and motor neuron disease (MND), including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). To investigate the potential mechanisms linking TBI to MND, we measured motor function and neuropathology following mild-TBI in wild-type and a transgenic model of ALS, G93A mutant mice. Mild-TBI did not alter the lifespan of G93A mice or age of onset; however, rotarod performance was impaired in G93A verses wild-type mice. Grip strength was reduced only in G93A mice after mild-TBI. Increased electromyography (EMG) abnormalities and markers of denervation (AchR, Runx1) indicate that mild-TBI may result in peripheral effects that are exaggerated in G93A mice. Markers of inflammation (cell edema, astrogliosis and microgliosis) were detected at 24 and 72h in the brain and spinal cord in wild-type and G93A mice. Levels of F2-isoprostanes, a marker of oxidative stress, were increased in the spinal cord 24h post mild-TBI in wild-type mice but were not affected by TBI in G93A mice. In summary, our data demonstrate that mild-TBI induces inflammation and oxidative stress and negatively impacts muscle denervation and motor performance, suggesting mild-TBI can potentiate motor neuron pathology and influence the development of MND in mice.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of a resistance training program with excessive training load and insufficient recovery time between bouts on muscle hypertrophy- and atrophy-related protein expression. Male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to either a trained (TR, N = 9) or a sedentary (SE, N = 9) group. The TR group was subjected to a 12-week resistance training program with excessive training load and insufficient recovery between bouts that was designed to induce plantaris muscle atrophy. After the 12-week experiment, the plantaris muscle was collected to analyze the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the muscle fibers, and MAFbx, MyoD, myogenin, and IGF-I protein expression (Western blot). The CSA was reduced significantly (-17%, p ≤ 0.05) in the TR group compared with the SE group. Reciprocally, there was a significant (p ≤ 0.05) 20% increase in MAFbx protein expression, whereas the MyoD (-27%), myogenin (-29%), and IGF-I (-43%) protein levels decreased significantly (p ≤ 0.05) in the TR group compared with the SE group. In conclusion, our data indicated that muscle atrophy induced by resistance training with excessive training load and insufficient recovery was associated with upregulation of the MAFbx catabolic protein and downregulation of the MyoD, myogenin, and IGF-I anabolic proteins. These findings suggest that quantitative analysis of these proteins can be important and complementary with other biochemical markers to confirm a possible overtraining diagnosis.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To examine modulation of M-cadherin, a marker for satellite cells (SCs); and MyoD, which may indicate the myogenic activity following recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) denervation and immediate reinnervation; and to elucidate the correlation between their modulations and establishment of neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) in the reinnervated rat thyroarytenoid (TA) muscle. STUDY DESIGN Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction qPCR and histologic assessment of the TA muscle following RLN transection and anastomosis. METHODS Rats were divided into three groups: 1) denervation alone (DNV) (n = 60), 2) denervation with anastomosis (ANS) (n = 60), and 3) sham-operated controls (n = 12). Animals were sacrificed at 3 days and 1, 3, and 5 weeks after treatment. TA muscles harvested from 40 animals from each DNV and ANS group; all of sham group were subjected to qPCR for assessment of the modulation of M-cadherin and MyoD; and the remaining larynges of DNV and ANS group were used for histologic analysis. RESULTS The expression levels of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) encoding M-cadherin and MyoD in the TA muscle of the DNV group were significantly higher (P < 0.05) than in the control throughout the study period. These mRNA levels in the ANS group were significantly higher (P < 0.05) at ≤ 1 week than in the controls but fell to control levels at ≥ 3 weeks. In the ANS group, recovery of muscle area and NMJs structure occurred by 3 weeks. CONCLUSION These data suggested that NMJ formation following reinnervation might prompt recovery of M-cadherin and MyoD mRNA expression to the quiescent level of SCs.

Abstract
We examined whether a mixed lactate and caffeine compound (LC) could effectively elicit proliferation and differentiation of satellite cells or activate anabolic signals in skeletal muscles. We cultured C2C12 cells with either lactate or LC for 6 h. We found that lactate significantly increased myogenin and follistatin protein levels and phosphorylation of P70S6K while decreasing the levels of myostatin relative to the control. LC significantly increased protein levels of Pax7, MyoD, and Ki67 in addition to myogenin, relative to control. LC also significantly increased follistatin expression relative to control and stimulated phosphorylation of mTOR and P70S6K. In an in vivo study, male F344/DuCrlCrlj rats were assigned to control (Sed, n = 10), exercise (Ex, n = 12), and LC supplementation (LCEx, n = 13) groups. LC was orally administered daily. The LCEx and Ex groups were exercised on a treadmill, running for 30 min at low intensity every other day for 4 wk. The LCEx group experienced a significant increase in the mass of the gastrocnemius (GA) and tibialis anterior (TA) relative to both the Sed and Ex groups. Furthermore, the LCEx group showed a significant increase in the total DNA content of TA compared with the Sed group. The LCEx group experienced a significant increase in myogenin and follistatin expression of GA relative to the Ex group. These results suggest that administration of LC can effectively increase muscle mass concomitant with elevated numbers of myonuclei, even with low-intensity exercise training, via activated satellite cells and anabolic signals.

Abstract
The regulation of skeletal muscle mass depends on the balance between protein synthesis and degradation. The role of protein degradation and in particular, the ubiquitin proteasome system, and increased expression of the E3 ubiquitin ligases, MuRF1 and MAFbx/atrogin-1, in the regulation of muscle size in response to growth stimuli is unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was to measure both proteasome activity and protein synthesis in mice over a 14-day period of chronic loading using the functional overload (FO) model. Further, the importance of MuRF1 and MAFbx expression in regulating muscle hypertrophy was examined by measuring muscle growth in response to FO in mice with a null deletion (KO) of either MuRF1 or MAFbx. In wild type (WT) mice, the increase in muscle mass correlated with significant increases (2-fold) in protein synthesis at 7 and 14 days. Interestingly, proteasome activity significantly increased in WT mice after one day, and continued to increase, peaking at 7 days following FO. The increase in proteasome activity was correlated with increases in the expression of the Forkhead transcription factors, FOXO1 and FOXO3a, which increased after both MuRF1 and MAFbx increased and returned to baseline. As in WT mice, hypertrophy in the MuRF1 and MAFbx KO mice was associated with significant increases in proteasome activity after 14 days of FO. The increase in plantaris mass was similar between the WT and MuRF1 KO mice following FO, however, muscle growth was significantly reduced in female MAFbx KO mice. Collectively, these results indicate that muscle hypertrophy is associated with increases in both protein synthesis and degradation. Further, MuRF1 or MAFbx expression is not required to increase proteasome activity following increased loading, however, MAFbx expression may be required for proper growth/remodeling of muscle in response to increase loading.

Abstract
REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY Although satellite cells are well known as muscle stem cells capable of adding myonuclei during muscle repair and hypertrophy, the response of satellite cells in horse muscles to a run to exhaustion is still unknown. OBJECTIVES To investigate the time course of satellite cell activation in Thoroughbred horse muscle after running to exhaustion. We hypothesised that this type of intense exercise would induce satellite cell activation in skeletal muscle similar to a resistance exercise. METHODS Nine de-trained Thoroughbred horses (6 geldings and 3 mares) aged 3-6 years were studied. Biopsy samples were taken from the gluteus medius muscle of the horses before and 1 min, 3 h, 1 day, 3 days, 1 week and 2 weeks after a treadmill run to exhaustion. The numbers of satellite cells for each fibre type were determined by using immunofluorescence staining. Total RNA was extracted from these samples, and the expressions of interleukin (IL)-6, paired box transcriptional factor (Pax) 7, myogenic differentiation 1 (MyoD), myogenin, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) mRNA were analysed using real-time reverse transcription-PCR. RESULTS The numbers of satellite cells were significantly increased in type I and IIa fibres at 1 week and in type IIa/x fibre at 2 weeks post exercise. The expression of IL-6 mRNA increased significantly by 3 h post exercise. The expression of PCNA mRNA also increased by 1 day after running, indicating that running can initiate satellite cell proliferation. The expression of Pax7, MyoD, myogenin, IGF-I and HGF mRNA peaked at 1 week post exercise. CONCLUSION Satellite cell activation and proliferation could be enhanced after a run to exhaustion without detectable injury as assessed by the histochemical analysis. Understanding the response of satellite cell activation to running exercise provides fundamental information about the skeletal muscle adaptation in Thoroughbred horses.

Abstract
SREBP-1 are ubiquitously expressed transcription factors, strongly expressed in lipogenic tissues where they regulate several metabolic processes like fatty acid synthesis. In skeletal muscle, SREBP-1 proteins regulate the expression of hundreds of genes, and we previously showed that their overexpression induced muscle atrophy together with a combined lack of expression of myogenic regulatory factors. Here we present evidences that SREBP-1 regulate muscle protein synthesis through the downregulation of the expression of MYOD1, MYOG and MEF2C factors. In myotubes overexpressing SREBP-1, restoring the expression of myogenic factors prevented atrophy and rescued protein synthesis, without affecting SREBP-1 action on atrogenes and proteolysis. Our results point out the roles of MRFs in the maintenance of the protein content and cell size in adult muscle fibre, and contribute to decipher the mechanisms by which SREBP-1 regulate muscle mass.

Abstract
MyoD is a muscle-specific transcriptional factor that acts as a master switch for skeletal muscle differentiation. This protein regulates myoblast proliferation and myogenic differentiation and is also a short-lived regulatory protein that is degraded by the ubiquitin system. However, the lysosomal pathway of MyoD protein degradation remains unknown. In this study, we sought to determine whether melatonin (1, 2mm)-induced autophagy causes the degradation of MyoD protein in C2C12 myoblast cells. Melatonin induced a significant increase in expression of the microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3)-II and Beclin-1 proteins in a dose-dependent manner. Melatonin treatment also significantly increased p-ERK, Ras, and p-Akt expressions in a dose-dependent manner. However, Bax expression was high compared with the absence of melatonin treatment, and Bcl-2 expression was high in the 0.1-0.5mm melatonin treatments and low in the 1 and 2mm melatonin treatments. Under the same conditions, cytosolic MyoD protein was significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner and completely eliminated by 36hr. This decrease in MyoD protein involved ubiquitin-mediated proteasomal activity with proteasome inhibitor MG132 or autophagy-dependent lysosomal degradation with lysosomal inhibitor bafilomycin A1 (Baf-A1). In the same condition, phosphorylation of the mammalian target of rapamycin, p-mTOR, and p-S6K expression with Baf-A1 or Baf-A1-plus melatonin treatment were significantly decreased compared with the levels after treatment with melatonin only. Together, these results suggest that melatonin (1, 2mm)-induced autophagy results in partial lysosomal degradation of MyoD protein in C2C12 myoblast cells.

Abstract
Hypoxia induces a loss of skeletal muscle mass, but the signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that hypoxia could impair skeletal muscle hypertrophy induced by functional overload (Ov). To test this hypothesis, plantaris muscles were overloaded during 5, 12, and 56 days in female rats exposed to hypobaric hypoxia (5,500 m), and then, we examined the responses of specific signaling pathways involved in protein synthesis (Akt/mTOR) and breakdown (atrogenes). Hypoxia minimized the Ov-induced hypertrophy at days 5 and 12 but did not affect the hypertrophic response measured at day 56. Hypoxia early reduced the phosphorylation levels of mTOR and its downstream targets P70S6K and rpS6, but it did not affect the phosphorylation levels of Akt and 4E-BP1, in Ov muscles. The role played by specific inhibitors of mTOR, such as AMPK and hypoxia-induced factors (i.e., REDD1 and BNIP-3) was studied. REDD1 protein levels were reduced by overload and were not affected by hypoxia in Ov muscles, whereas AMPK was not activated by hypoxia. Although hypoxia significantly increased BNIP-3 mRNA levels at day 5, protein levels remained unaffected. The mRNA levels of the two atrogenes MURF1 and MAFbx were early increased by hypoxia in Ov muscles. In conclusion, hypoxia induced a transient alteration of muscle growth in this hypertrophic model, at least partly due to a specific impairment of the mTOR/P70S6K pathway, independently of Akt, by an undefined mechanism, and increased transcript levels for MURF1 and MAFbx that could contribute to stimulate the proteasomal proteolysis.

Abstract
The present study investigated the effects of fasting and refeeding on the expression of proteasome-related genes and their downstream targets in the skeletal muscles of chicks. Seven-day-old chicks were fasted for 24 or 48 h and then refed for 4 h. The expression levels of MAFbx and MuRF1, which function as E3 ligases in the ubiquitin-proteasome system, were investigated at the mRNA and protein levels. MAFbx and MuRF1 expression were increased by fasting and these increases were downregulated by refeeding. The expression of the target proteins of these E3 ligases, MyoD and M-CK, was also analyzed. The levels of these proteins were downregulated by fasting, and these decreases were rescued by refeeding. The results of this study indicate that fasting stimulates MAFbx and MuRF1 expression in chicks, possibly leading to increased degradation of their corresponding target proteins.

Abstract
The limitation in successfully acquiring large populations of stem cell has impeded their application. A new method based on the dedifferentiation of adult somatic cells to generate induced multipotent stem cells would allow us to obtain a large amount of autologous stem cells for regenerative medicine. The current work was proposed to induce a sub-population of cells with characteristics of muscle stem cells from myoblasts through conditional treatment of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β(1) . Our results show that a lower concentration of TGF-β(1) is able to promote C2C12 myoblasts to express stem cell markers as well as to repress myogenic proteins, which involves a mechanism of dedifferentiation. Moreover, TGF-β(1) treatment promoted the proliferation-arrested C2C12 myoblasts to re-enter the S-phase. We also investigated the multi-differentiation potentials of the dedifferentiated cells. TGF-β(1) pre-treated C2C12 myoblasts were implanted into mice to repair dystrophic skeletal muscle or injured bone. In addition to the C2C12 myoblasts, similar effects of TGF-β(1) were also observed in the primary myoblasts of mice. Our results suggest that TGF-β(1) is effective as a molecular trigger for the dedifferentiation of skeletal muscle myoblasts and could be used to generate a large pool of progenitor cells that collectively behave as multipotent stem cell-like cells for regenerative medicine applications.

Abstract
Skeletal myogenesis is precisely regulated by multiple transcription factors. Previously, we demonstrated that enhancer of polycomb 1 (Epc1) induces skeletal muscle differentiation by potentiating serum response factor (SRF)-dependent muscle gene activation. Here, we report that an interacting partner of Epc1, ret finger protein (RFP), blocks skeletal muscle differentiation. Our findings show that RFP was highly expressed in skeletal muscles and was downregulated during myoblast differentiation. Forced expression of RFP delayed myoblast differentiation, whereas knockdown enhanced it. Epc1-induced enhancements of SRF-dependent multinucleation, transactivation of the skeletal α-actin promoter, binding of SRF to the serum response element, and muscle-specific gene induction were blocked by RFP. RFP interfered with the physical interaction between Epc1 and SRF. Muscles from rfp knockout mice (Rfp(-/-)) mice were bigger than those from wild-type mice, and the expression of SRF-dependent muscle-specific genes was upregulated. Myotube formation and myoblast differentiation were enhanced in Rfp(-/-) mice. Taken together, our findings highlight RFP as a novel regulator of muscle differentiation that acts by modulating the expression of SRF-dependent skeletal muscle-specific genes.

Abstract
Previously, we reported that mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1 (MEK1) activated in the mid-stage of skeletal muscle differentiation promotes myogenic differentiation. To elucidate the molecular mechanism, we investigated an activity of MEK1 for MyoD. Activated MEK1 associates with MyoD in the nucleus of differentiating myoblasts. In vitro kinase assay using active MEK1, a (32)P-labeled protein band corresponding to GST-MyoD was observed but not to mutant GST-MyoD-Y156F. Tyrosine phosphorylation of endogenous MyoD was detected with a specific anti-pMyoD-Y156 antibody; however, this response was blocked by PD184352, a MEK-specific inhibitor. These results indicate that activated MEK1 phosphorylates the MyoD-Y156 residue directly. Interestingly, the protein level of mutant MyoD-Y156F decreased compared with that of wild type but was recovered in the presence of lactacystin, a proteasome inhibitor. The protein level of MyoD-Y156E, which mimics phosphorylation at Tyr-156, was above that of wild type, indicating that the phosphorylation protects MyoD from the ubiquitin proteasome-mediated degradation. In addition, the low protein level of MyoD-Y156F was recovered over that of wild type by an additional mutation at Leu-164, a critical binding residue of MAFbx/AT-1, a Skp, Cullin, F-box (SCF) E3-ubiquitin ligase. The amount of MyoD co-precipitated with MAFbx/AT-1 also was reduced in the presence of active MEK1. Thus, these results suggested that the phosphorylation probably interrupts the binding of MAFbx/AT-1 to MyoD and thereby increases its stability. Collectively, our results suggest that MEK1 activated in differentiating myoblasts stimulates muscle differentiation by phosphorylating MyoD-Y156, which results in MyoD stabilization.

Abstract
Muscle fibres have different properties with respect to force, contraction speed, endurance, oxidative/glycolytic capacity etc. Although adult muscle fibres are normally post-mitotic with little turnover of cells, the physiological properties of the pre-existing fibres can be changed in the adult animal upon changes in usage such as after exercise. The signal to change is mainly conveyed by alterations in the patterns of nerve-evoked electrical activity, and is to a large extent due to switches in the expression of genes. Thus, an excitation-transcription coupling must exist. It is suggested that changes in nerve-evoked muscle activity lead to a variety of activity correlates such as increases in free intracellular Ca2+ levels caused by influx across the cell membrane and/or release from the sarcoplasmatic reticulum, concentrations of metabolites such as lipids and ADP, hypoxia and mechanical stress. Such correlates are detected by sensors such as protein kinase C (PKC), calmodulin, AMP-activated kinase (AMPK), peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor δ (PPARδ), and oxygen dependent prolyl hydroxylases that trigger intracellular signaling cascades. These complex cascades involve several transcription factors such as nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT), myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2), myogenic differentiation factor (myoD), myogenin, PPARδ, and sine oculis homeobox 1/eyes absent 1 (Six1/Eya1). These factors might act indirectly by inducing gene products that act back on the cascade, or as ultimate transcription factors binding to and transactivating/repressing genes for the fast and slow isoforms of various contractile proteins and of metabolic enzymes. The determination of size and force is even more complex as this involves not only intracellular signaling within the muscle fibres, but also muscle stem cells called satellite cells. Intercellular signaling substances such as myostatin and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) seem to act in a paracrine fashion. Induction of hypertrophy is accompanied by the satellite cells fusing to myofibres and thereby increasing the capacity for protein synthesis. These extra nuclei seem to remain part of the fibre even during subsequent atrophy as a form of muscle memory facilitating retraining. In addition to changes in myonuclear number during hypertrophy, changes in muscle fibre size seem to be caused by alterations in transcription, translation (per nucleus) and protein degradation.

Abstract
Recent data have suggested that insulin resistance may be associated with a diminished ability of skeletal muscle to undergo hypertrophy (Paturi S, Gutta AK, Kakarla SK, Katta A, Arnold EC, Wu M, Rice KM, Blough ER. J Appl Physiol 108: 7-13, 2010). Here we examine the effects of insulin resistance using the obese Zucker (OZ) rat with increased muscle loading on the regulation of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and its downstream signaling intermediates 70-kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70S6k), ribosomal protein S6 (rpS6), eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF2), and eukaryotic initiation factor 4E-binding protein 1 (4E-BP1). Compared with that observed in lean Zucker (LZ) rats, the degree of soleus muscle hypertrophy as assessed by changes in muscle wet weight (LZ: 35% vs. OZ: 16%) was significantly less in the OZ rats after 3 wk of muscle overload (P < 0.05). This diminished growth in the OZ rats was accompanied by significant impairments in the ability of the soleus to undergo phosphorylation of mTOR (Ser(2448)), p70S6k (Thr(389)), rpS6 (Ser(235/236)), and protein kinase B (Akt) (Ser(473) and Thr(308)) (P < 0.05). Taken together, these data suggest that impaired overload-induced hypertrophy in insulin-resistant skeletal muscle may be related to decreases in the ability of the muscle to undergo mTOR-related signaling.

Abstract
Adult skeletal muscle stem cells, termed satellite cells are imperative to muscle regeneration. Much work has been performed on satellite cell identification and the subsequent activation of the myogenic response but the regulation of satellite cells including its activation is not well elucidated. The purpose of this review article is to synthesize what the literature reveals in regards to the current understanding of satellite cells including their contribution to muscle repair and growth following physiological stimuli. In addition, this review article will describe the recent findings on the roles of the classic developmental signaling pathways, Notch and Wnt, to the myogenic response in various muscle injury models. This purpose of this summary is to bring awareness of the impact that muscle contraction models have on the local and systemic environment of adult muscle stem cells which will be beneficial for comprehending and treatment development for muscle -associated ailments and other organ diseases.

Abstract
Myonecrosis with permanent loss of muscle mass is a relevant local toxic effect following envenomation with Bothrops jararacussu snake venom. Regeneration of adult skeletal muscle involves the activation of satellite cells, a process regulated by myogenic regulatory factors (MRF). MyoD is an MRF involved in both proliferation and differentiation of satellite cells. Androgens are modulators of skeletal muscle, known to increase muscle mass and strength. This study examined the hypothesis that anabolic androgens improve the muscle regeneration process in mice following envenomation by Bothrops jararacussu snake venom. Myonecrosis was induced by venom injection (30 microg/50 microl in physiological solution) over the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles of mice. Nandrolone (ND) (6 mg/kg, sc) was administered after 12 h, 7 d, and 14 d following venom injection. The histological changes in EDL muscle at 1, 3, 7, and 21 d after muscle injury were analyzed by light microscopy. Cross-sectional areas of fibers were measured. MyoD was evaluated by immunofluorescence technique. Histological examination revealed the presence of a regeneration process in ND-treated animals, characterized by the appearance of some myotubes at 3 d, and numerous myotubes at 7 d from venom injection. Nandrolone treatment reduced the frequency of small fibers at 7 and 21 d after venom administration, and increased the frequency of large fibers at 7 d postinjury. Nandrolone also significantly augmented the expression of MyoD-positive cells at 7 and 21 d after envenomation. These results suggest that ND accelerates muscle regeneration and indicate the involvement of MyoD in this process.

Abstract
AIM Oestrogen receptors (ER) are present in human skeletal muscle (hSkM) cells; however, the function of the receptor is currently unknown. We investigated the influence of oestradiol and selective ER modulators [tamoxifen (TAM), raloxifene (RAL)] on ER coregulator mRNA expression in hSkM. METHODS Human skeletal muscle cells were treated with 10 nm oestradiol, 5 microm TAM and 10 microm RAL over a 24-h period. Following the treatment period, mRNA expression was quantified using real-time PCR to detect changes in ER-alpha, ER-beta, steroid receptor coactivator (SRC), silencing mediator for retinoid and thyroid hormone receptors (SMRT), MyoD, GLUT4 and c-fos. RESULTS ER-alpha mRNA expression increased with all three drug treatments (P < 0.05) while there was no change in mRNA expression of ER-beta in hSkM cells. mRNA expression of SRC increased and SMRT decreased with oestradiol, TAM and RAL in hSkM cells (P < 0.05). Importantly, mRNA expression of MyoD increased with oestradiol and decreased with TAM and RAL in hSkM cells (P < 0.05). mRNA expression of GLUT4 increased with oestradiol and RAL and decreased with TAM in hSkM cells (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS These findings are novel in that they provide the first evidence that oestradiol and selective ER modulators influence ER-alpha function in hSkM cells. This demonstrates the importance of the ER and alterations in its coregulators, to potentially prevent sarcopenia and promote muscle growth in postmenopausal women using these forms of hormone replacement therapy.

Abstract
To investigate the effects of heat stress (hyperthermia) on muscle degeneration-regeneration, the soleus muscles of adult male Wistar rats were injected bilaterally with a single injection of bupivacaine. The rats were assigned to a sedentary control (Con), heat stress (Heat), bupivacaine-injected (BPVC), or bupivacaine-injected plus heat stress (BPVC+Heat) group. Heat stress was induced in the Heat and BPVC+Heat groups by immersion of the lower half of the body into water maintained at 42 ± 1°C for 30 min 48 h after the injection of bupivacaine and every other day during the following 1 or 2 wk. The soleus muscles in all groups were excised 24 h after the final bout of heat stress. Mean muscle weight, fiber cross-sectional area, myonuclear number, and heat shock protein 72 (Hsp72) and calcineurin protein levels were lower in the BPVC than in the Con or Heat groups at both time points. In contrast, several of these parameters in the BPVC+Heat group were not different or higher than in the Con or Heat groups at the 1- and/or 2-wk time points. The number of total and activated satellite cells, estimated by analyses of Pax7-negative, M-cadherin-negative, and MyoD-positive nuclei, was greater in BPVC+Heat than in all other groups. Combined, the results indicate that heat stress-related activation of satellite cells and upregulation of Hsp72 and calcineurin expression played important roles in the regeneration of the soleus fibers after bupivacaine injection.

Abstract
We reported recently that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor beta (PPARbeta) activation promotes a calcineurin-dependent exercise-like remodelling characterised by increased numbers of oxidative fibres and capillaries. As physical exercise also induces myonuclear accretion, we investigated whether PPARbeta activation alters myonuclear density. Transgenic muscle-specific PPARbeta over-expression induced 14% increase of myonuclear density. Pharmacological PPARbeta activation promoted rapid and massive myonuclear accretion (20% increase after 48 h), which is dependent upon calcineurin/nuclear factor of activated T cells signalling pathway. In vivo bromodeoxyuridine labelling and proliferating cell nuclear antigen immunodetection revealed that PPARbeta activation did not promote cell proliferation, suggesting that the PPARbeta-promoted myonuclear accretion involves fusion of pre-existing muscle precursor cells to myofibres rather than cell division. Finally, we showed that in skeletal muscle, ageing led to a down-regulation of PPARbeta accompanied by decrease of both oxidative fibre number and myonuclear density. PPARbeta pharmacological activation counteracts, at least in part, the ageing-driven muscle remodelling.

Abstract
AIM Activated satellite cells (SCs) have the ability to reacquire a quiescent, undifferentiated state. Pax7 plays a crucial role in allowing activated SCs to undergo self-renewal. Because the increase in the SC population is induced during overload-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy, it is possible that Pax7-regulated SC self-renewal is involved in the modulation of the SC population during the functional overload of skeletal muscles. However, the characteristics of the expression patterns of Pax7 in SCs during the functional overload of adult skeletal muscles are poorly understood. METHODS Using immunohistochemical approaches, we examined the temporal and spatial expression patterns of Pax7 expressed in SCs during the functional overloading of rat skeletal muscles. RESULTS The time course of Pax7 expression in SCs was similar to that of the expression of the differentiation regulatory factor myogenin during the early stage of functional overload. However, the percentage of SCs that expressed Pax7 was markedly higher than that of the SCs that expressed myogenin. Coexpression of Pax7 and myogenin was not detected in SCs. In addition, the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21, which regulates cell cycle arrest and differentiation, was not detected in Pax7-positive SCs. CONCLUSION These results suggest that Pax7-regulated self-renewal of SCs may be induced during the early stage of functional overload and may contribute to modulating the SC population in hypertrophied muscles. Furthermore, it was suggested that the numbers of SCs which underwent self-renewal may be higher than that of SCs which were provided as the additional myonuclei for hypertrophying myofibres.

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.

Abstract
The myogenic regulatory factor MyoD plays an important role in embryonic and adult skeletal muscle growth. Even though it is best known as a marker for activated satellite cells, it is also expressed in myonuclei, and its expression can be induced by a variety of different conditions. Several model systems have been used to study the mechanisms behind MyoD regulation, such as exercise, stretch, disuse, and denervation. Since MyoD reacts in a highly muscle-specific manner, and its expression varies over time and between species, universally valid predictions and explanations for changes in MyoD expression are not possible. This review explores the complex role of MyoD in muscle plasticity by evaluating the induction of MyoD expression in the context of muscle composition and electrical and mechanical stimulation.

Abstract
AIM To examine the relations between specific fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) and satellite cell activation during muscle regeneration and hypertrophy in vivo, we measured mRNA expression of FGFs and myogenic markers in rat plantaris muscle after bupivacaine administration and synergist ablation. METHODS mRNA levels for MyoD, myogenin, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), p21, M-cadherin, Pax7, FGF-1, FGF-2, FGF-3, FGF-4, FGF-5, FGF-6, FGF-7, FGF-8 and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) were measured continually for up to 72 h after bupivacaine administration and synergist ablation. FGF-5, FGF-7 and HGF proteins were immunostained at 72 h after bupivacaine administration. RESULTS MyoD and PCNA mRNAs started increasing 24 h after bupivacaine administration. Myogenin, p21, M-cadherin and Pax7 mRNAs started to increase after 48 and 72 h. After synergist ablation, MyoD, PCNA, M-cadherin and Pax7 mRNAs had increased at 24 and 48 h, and myogenin and p21 mRNAs at 12 and 24 h. FGF-1, FGF-7 and HGF mRNAs after the treatments started to increase at the same time as MyoD and PCNA mRNAs. FGF-5 was expressed at the same time as MyoD and PCNA mRNAs after bupivacaine administration but did not after the ablation. FGF-2, FGF-3, FGF-4, FGF-6 and FGF-8 mRNAs were not associated with the expression of the myogenic markers. FGF-7 and HGF proteins were expressed in immature muscle fibre nuclei and the extracellular matrix, but FGF-5 protein was preferentially expressed in extracellular matrix. CONCLUSION These results indicate that FGF-1, FGF-7 and HGF are associated with specific myogenic marker expression during muscle regeneration and hypertrophy.

Abstract
Paired box (Pax) proteins 3 and 7 are key determinants for embryonic skeletal muscle development by initiating myogenic regulatory factor (MRF) gene expression. We show that Pax3 and 7 participate in adult skeletal muscle plasticity during the initial responses to chronic overload (< or =7 days) and appear to coordinate MyoD expression, a member of the MRF family of genes. Pax3 and 7 mRNA were higher than control within 12 h after initiation of overload, preceded the increase in MyoD mRNA on day 1, and peaked on day 2. On days 3 and 7, Pax7 mRNA remained higher than control, suggesting that satellite cell self-renewal was occurring. Pax3 and 7 and MyoD protein levels were higher than control on days 2 and 3. These data indicate that Pax3 and 7 coordinate the recapitulation of developmental-like regulatory mechanisms in response to growth-inducing stimuli in adult skeletal muscle, presumably through activation of satellite cells.
