Abstract
Chronic stress induces psychological and physiological changes that may have negative sequelae for health and well-being. In this study, the skeletal muscles of male C57BL/6 mice subjected to repetitive water-immersion restraint stress to model chronic stress were examined. In chronically stressed mice, serum corticosterone levels significantly increased, whereas thymus volume and bone mineral density decreased. Further, body weight, skeletal muscle mass, and grip strength were significantly decreased. Histochemical analysis of the soleus muscles revealed a significant decrease in the cross-sectional area of type 2b muscle fibers. Although type 2a fibers also tended to decrease, chronic stress had no impact on type 1 muscle fibers. Chronic stress increased the expression of REDD1, FoxO1, FoxO3, KLF15, Atrogin1, and FKBP5, but did not affect the expression of myostatin or myogenin. In contrast, chronic stress resulted in a decrease in p-S6 and p-4E-BP1 levels in the soleus muscle. Taken together, these results indicate that chronic stress promotes muscle atrophy by inhibiting mammalian targets of rapamycin complex 1 activity due to the upregulation of its inhibitor, REDD1.

Short- and Long-Term Reciprocal Bone-Muscle Relationships in the Upper and Lower Extremity of Afro-Caribbean Men by DXA: A Longitudinal Analysis of the Tobago Bone Health Study. JBMR Plus 2020; 4:e10406. [PMID: 33103031 PMCID: PMC7574705 DOI: 10.1002/jbm4.10406] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2020] [Revised: 07/30/2020] [Accepted: 08/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Little is known about the time course of muscle–bone effects and whether a reciprocal clinical effect of bone on muscle is present. We hypothesized that lean mass (LM) measures at the arms and legs have a stronger relationship with BMD measured within the same region than the reciprocal effect. The Tobago Bone Health Study was used to address this hypothesis, examining body composition data from total body DXA scans obtained at 0, 48‐, and 120‐month visits. A longitudinal analysis of LM, LM/height2 (LMI), and LM/BMI was conducted at the upper and lower extremities separately, in relation to BMD within the corresponding region. A cross‐lagged panel model was used to study pathways from 0 to 120 months for muscle–bone and bone–muscle effects within the same visit, and across each lagged period. Models accounted for age, height, weight, race, arthritis, prior nontraumatic fracture after age 40, number of units of alcohol consumed per week, current smoking, diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, amount of walking in the last week, grip strength, and hospitalizations. Significant models demonstrating parsimony, and meeting absolute and relative fit criteria were retained. Among 1286 Afro‐Caribbean men (mean age: 53 ± 9 years, BMI: 27.43 ± 4.23 kg/m2) with data available for all visits, LM, LMI, and LM/BMI had modest contemporaneous relationships with BMD, which dissipated with lagged time. The size of these effects was stronger at the legs than at the arms. These lagged effects were primarily mediated through indirect same time‐point muscle–bone relations rather than a true directly lagged effect. Bone density showed only a small effect on LM arm measures across lagged time, but this was impossible to tease‐out from same time‐point relations. These results suggest muscle–bone relationships are not long‐lasting at least beyond 48 months. Efforts to maintain muscle and bone strength should focus on shorter‐term interventions. More studies are needed with serial bone–muscle imaging over shorter periods. © 2020 The Authors.

Abstract
Understanding how bones are innately designed, robustly developed and delicately maintained through intricate anatomical features and physiological processes across the lifespan is vital to inform our assessment of normal bone health, and essential to aid our interpretation of adverse clinical outcomes affecting bone through primary or secondary causes. Accordingly this review serves to introduce new researchers and clinicians engaging with bone and mineral metabolism, and provide a contemporary update for established researchers or clinicians. Specifically, we describe the mechanical and non-mechanical functions of the skeleton; its multidimensional and hierarchical anatomy (macroscopic, microscopic, organic, inorganic, woven and lamellar features); its cellular and hormonal physiology (deterministic and homeostatic processes that govern and regulate bone); and processes of mechanotransduction, modelling, remodelling and degradation that underpin bone adaptation or maladaptation. In addition, we also explore commonly used methods for measuring bone metabolic activity or material features (imaging or biochemical markers) together with their limitations.

Relationship between pulmonary function and physical performance among community-living people: results from Look-up 7+ study. J Cachexia Sarcopenia Muscle 2020; 11:38-45. [PMID: 31800168 PMCID: PMC7015242 DOI: 10.1002/jcsm.12485] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2019] [Revised: 06/28/2019] [Accepted: 07/22/2019] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND While respiratory muscle strength is recognized to decline with aging process, the relationship between sarcopenia and pulmonary function remains to be studied. The present study was undertaken to provide a better insight into the comprehension of the relationship between pulmonary function and muscle function (strength and physical performance) using an unselected sample of subjects assessed during the Longevity Check-up 7+ project. METHODS Look-up 7+ is an ongoing cross-sectional survey started in June 2015 and conducted in unconventional settings (i.e. exhibitions, malls, and health promotion campaigns) across Italy. Candidate participants are eligible for enrolment if they are at least 18 years of age and provide written informed consent. Muscle strength was assessed by handgrip strength test, and physical performance was evaluated by chair stand test. Spirometer analysis was performed using the AirSmart system, and the largest forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1), and peak expiratory flow (PEF) values were collected. RESULTS The mean age of 925 subjects participating in the Longevity check-7+ surveys and receiving the spirometer evaluation was 55.6 years (range from 18 to 98 years), and 501 (54%) were women. Overall, both in male and female participants, FVC, FEV1 and PEF positively correlated with handgrip strength and chair stand tests. The receiver operator characteristic curve analysis revealed that the areas under the curves for FVC, FEV1, and PEF were 0.79, 0.80 and 0.80, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The results clearly show that pulmonary function was positively associated with handgrip strength and chair stand tests. Based on this observation, muscle strength, physical performance, and pulmonary function should be recommended as the method of choice for the early detection of individuals at risk of probable sarcopenia and at the same time to better characterized the severity of sarcopenia status.

Differences in the relation between bone mineral content and lean body mass according to gender and reproductive status by age ranges. J Bone Miner Metab 2019; 37:749-758. [PMID: 30515578 DOI: 10.1007/s00774-018-0978-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2018] [Accepted: 11/12/2018] [Indexed: 10/27/2022]
Abstract
The present study aims: (1) to explore the influence of lean mass (LM) on bone mineral content (BMC), (2) to investigate the pubertal influences on the BMC-LM relation, and (3) to perform Z-score charts of BMC-LM relation, stratified by gender and reproductive status categorized by age ranges. A cross-sectional analysis was conducted using 4001 healthy subjects between 7 and 90 years participating in the Health Workers Cohort Study. Of these, 720 participants were ≤ 19 years, 2417 were women ≥ 20 years, and 864 were men ≥ 20 years. Using Dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), we measured BMC and LM. Participants' pubertal development was assessed according to Tanner's stage scale. To describe BMC-LM relation, simple correlation coefficients were computed. To produce best-fit equations, an ANOVA test was conducted. Z-score graphs for the BMC-LM relation were obtained. In general, the BMC-LM correlations were linear and highly significant. For boys, curves were virtually parallel, with similar intercepts and a progressive displacement of values toward the upper-right region of the graph, for each Tanner subgroup. For girls, curves for Tanner 1-2 and 4-5 stages were parallel; but, in girls Tanner 4-5, the intercepts were significantly higher by about +300-400 g of BMC (P < 0.001). For postmenopausal women, the curve was parallel to that for the premenopausal but showed a lower intercept (P < 0.001). We provide DXA reference data on a well-characterized cohort of 4001 healthy subjects. These reference curves provide a reference value for the assessment and monitoring of bone health in all age groups included in the present study.
