Eduardo R, Karla C. Sucrose-induced metabolic syndrome differentially affects energy metabolism and fiber phenotype of EDL and soleus muscles during exercise in the rat. Physiol Rep 2024; 12:e16126. [PMID: 39001594 PMCID: PMC11245568 DOI: 10.14814/phy2.16126] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Revised: 06/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/15/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Molecular mechanisms associated to improvement of metabolic syndrome (MetS) during exercise are not fully elucidated. MetS was induced in 250 g male Wistar rats by 30% sucrose in drinking water. Control rats receiving tap water were controls, both groups received solid standard diet. After 14 weeks, an endurance exercised group, and a sedentary were formed for 8 weeks. The soleus and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles were dissected to determine contractile performance, expression of myosin heavy chain isoforms, PGC1α, AMPKα2, NFATC1, MEF2a, SIX1, EYA1, FOXO1, key metabolic enzymes activities. Exercise mildly improved MetS features. MetS didn't alter the contractile performance of the muscles. Exercise didn't altered expression of PGC1α, NFATC1, SIX1 and EYA1 on MetS EDL whereas NFATC1 increased in soleus. Only citrate synthase was affected by MetS on the EDL and this was partially reverted by exercise. Soleus α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase activity was increased by exercise but MetS rendered the muscle resistant to this effect. MetS affects mostly the EDL muscle, and endurance exercise only partially reverts this. Soleus muscle seems more resilient to MetS. We highlight the importance of studying both muscles during MetS, and their metabolic remodeling on the development and treatment of MetS by exercise.

Abstract
Muscle loss is a significant health concern, particularly with the increasing trend of population aging, and sarcopenia has emerged as a common pathological process of muscle loss in the elderly. Currently, there has been significant progress in the research on sarcopenia, including in-depth analysis of the mechanisms underlying sarcopenia caused by aging and the development of corresponding diagnostic criteria, forming a relatively complete system. However, as research on sarcopenia progresses, the concept of secondary sarcopenia has also been proposed. Due to the incomplete understanding of muscle loss caused by chronic diseases, there are various limitations in epidemiological, basic, and clinical research. As a result, a comprehensive concept and diagnostic system have not yet been established, which greatly hinders the prevention and treatment of the disease. This review focuses on Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)-related sarcopenia, comparing its similarities and differences with sarcopenia and disuse muscle atrophy. The review show significant differences between the three muscle-related issues in terms of pathological changes, epidemiology and clinical manifestations, etiology, and preventive and therapeutic strategies. Unlike sarcopenia, T2DM-related sarcopenia is characterized by a reduction in type I fibers, and it differs from disuse muscle atrophy as well. The mechanism involving insulin resistance, inflammatory status, and oxidative stress remains unclear. Therefore, future research should further explore the etiology, disease progression, and prognosis of T2DM-related sarcopenia, and develop targeted diagnostic criteria and effective preventive and therapeutic strategies to better address the muscle-related issues faced by T2DM patients and improve their quality of life and overall health.

Abstract
Homeostasis is essential for muscle repair and regeneration after skeletal muscle exercise. This study investigated the role of methyltransferase-like 21C (METTL21C) in skeletal muscle of mice after exercise and the potential mechanism. First, muscle samples were collected at 2, 4 and 6 weeks after exercise, and liver glycogen, muscle glycogen, blood lactic acid and triglyceride were assessed. Moreover, the expression levels of autophagy markers and METTL21C in skeletal muscle were analyzed. The results showed that the expression levels of METTL21C and MYH7 in the gastrocnemius muscle of mice in the exercise group were significantly higher after exercise than those in the control group, which suggested that long-term exercise promoted the formation of slow-twitch muscle fibers in mouse skeletal muscle. Likewise, the autophagy capacity was enhanced with the prolongation of exercise in muscles. The findings were confirmed in mouse C2C12 cells. We discovered that knockdown of Mettl21c reduced the expression of MYH7 and the autophagy level in mouse myoblasts. These findings indicate that METTL21C promotes skeletal muscle homeostasis after exercise by enhancing autophagy, and also contributes to myogenic differentiation and the formation of slow muscle fibers.

Physiol Behav 2023; 271:114340. [PMID: 37648184 DOI: 10.1016/j.physbeh.2023.114340] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 08/05/2023] [Accepted: 08/26/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the expression of gluconeogenesis and insulin resistance key genes; including insulin receptor substrate 1 (Irs1), a serine/threonine protein kinase (Akt), forkhead box class-O 1 (FoxO1) and phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (Pepck) genes, and lipid profiles following either a standard or a high-fat diet (HFD) and either an aerobic exercise or non-exercise intervention in prediabetic and type 2 diabetic (T2DM) mice. METHODS 24 male mice were randomly assigned to two groups fed with a normal diet (ND) or a HFD for 12 weeks. The mice in each group were again randomly assigned to two groups to create four groups in total: 1. Prediabetes-exercised (Prediabetes-Exe), 2. Prediabetes-non exercised (Prediabetes-Non exe), 3. Healthy-exercised (Healthy-Exe), and 4. Healthy-non exercised (Healthy-Non exe). Eighteen additional male mice were fed with the HFD for 8 weeks, after which streptozotocin (STZ) was administered. The mice were then fed the HFD for an additional 4 weeks. These T2DM mice were then randomly divided into two groups: 1. Diabetes-exercised (Diabetic-Exe), and 2. Diabetes-Non exe. The three Exe groups all exercised on a treadmill for 8 weeks for 5 sessions/week. After the last training session, liver tissue was extracted, and the expression of Irs1, Akt, FoxO1, and Pepck genes was measured using real time quantitative Polymerase chain reaction tests. Lipid profiles were measured in serum and in the liver. RESULTS The expression of both Irs1 and Akt was significantly increased in the Healthy-Exe, Prediabetes-Exe, and Diabetes-Exe groups as compared to the Healthy-Non exe, Prediabetes-Non exe, and Diabetes-Non exe groups (p < 0.001). Additionally, the expression of FoxO1 (p < 0.05) and Pepck (p < 0.001) decreased significantly in the Prediabetes-Exe, and Diabetes-Exe groups as compared to the Prediabetes-non exe, and Diabetes-Non exe groups. Aerobic exercise did not lead to reductions in FoxO1 or Pepck expression in the Healthy-Exe mice. CONCLUSIONS Eight weeks of aerobic exercise (5 sessions/week) significantly increased the expression of key genes that are important for maintaining glucose homeostasis and improving insulin resistance (Irs1 and Akt), and decreased expression of genes that are important for decreasing gluconeogenesis in the liver (FoxO1 and Pepck) in healthy, prediabetic, and T2DM mice. The lipid profiles improved in healthy, prediabetic, and T2DM mice.

Abstract
Exercise plays an important role in cardiac health and enhances the transport of glucose in cardiac muscle by increasing the glucose transporter-4 (GLUT4) content at the cell membrane. The GLUT4 gene is a target of myocyte enhancer transcription factor 2A (MEF2A). Several transcription factors are regulated by microRNAs (miRs), small non-coding RNAs that control gene expression at the posttranscriptional level. In this study we tested the hypothesis that exercise regulates the expression of miR-223 and that MEF2A is a direct target of miR-223. Quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blot experiments showed that GLUT4 gene expression and protein abundance increased by 30 and 23%, respectively, in the microsomal fraction immediately after exercise, and had returned to control levels after 18 h. In contrast, the increase in GLUT4 in the membrane fraction was delayed. Exercise also increased the protein abundance of transcription factors involved in GLUT4 expression. Immediately after exercise, the protein abundance of MEF2A, nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1), and forkhead box O1 (FOXO1) increased by 18, 30, and 40%, respectively. qRT-PCR experiments showed that miR-223-3p and miR-223-5p expression decreased immediately after exercise by 60 and 30%, respectively, and luciferase assays indicated that MEF2A is a target of the 5p strand of miR-223. Overexpression of miR-223-5p in H9c2 cells decreased the protein abundance of MEF2A. Our results suggest that the exercise-induced increase in GLUT4 content in cardiac muscle is partly due to the posttranscriptional increase in MEF2A protein abundance caused by the decrease in miR-223-5p expression. The exercise-induced decrease in miR-223-3p expression likely contributes to the increases in NRF1 and FOXO1 abundance and GLUT4 content.

Abstract
Lueyang black-bone chicken is free-range in hilly areas and has unique genetic characteristics and excellent muscle quality. However, the molecular mechanisms of breeding mode influence growth and meat quality in Lueyang black-bone chicken are still unclear. Here we analyzed the meat quality and transcriptome data of thigh muscle by comparing free-range and caged modes at the age of 60 and 120 days in Lueyang black-boned chicken. The results demonstrated that the free-range mode could improve the pH value, tenderness, and reducing the hardness of the thigh muscle. Intramuscular fat (IMF) content of the thigh muscle was markedly higher in the caged chickens compared with free-range animals at the age of 60 days. Functional pathway analysis illustrated that tight junction signaling was associated with the formation of slow-twitch fibers in free-range chickens at age of 120 days. All research data proved that the free-range mode could improve muscle quality by promoting the formation of slow-twitch fibers and IMF in thigh muscle in Lueyang black-bone chicken. Based on the animal benefit and healthy, the free-range feeding should be considered during the breeding process of broiler chicken. The results provide good knowledge of the functional molecular mechanisms associated with muscle quality in Lueyang black-bone chicken.

Abstract
AIMS Apoptosis is a type of cell death that is vital for tissue homeostasis. Exercise can lead to initial stimulation of apoptotic regulator genes. We investigated their response to an acute exercise and their adaptations to chronic exercise training with an emphasis on eccentric and sprint interval exercises. MAIN METHODS Male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly assigned to five groups (n = 8): acute eccentric exercise (AEE), acute sprint interval exercise (ASE), chronic eccentric exercise (CEE), chronic sprint interval exercise (CSE) and control (C). The AEE group underwent downhill running (at -16° slope) at 16 m/min 18 sets. The ASE group run for 7 sets and the speed increased gradually to 70-80 m/min. The chronic groups were implemented for 9 weeks. The CEE run 1 set for 15 min at -4° slope that increased gradually to 90 min at -16°. The CSE sprinted 1 min with 2-5 min rest. The mRNA in soleus (slow-twitch muscle) and super vastus lateralis (SVL) (fast-twitch muscle) muscles was analyzed by real-time RT-PCR. KEY FINDINGS According to the gene expression level in soleus muscle, apoptotic responses to acute and chronic sprint interval exercise as well as towards chronic eccentric exercise were clearly evident. But in SVL muscle, the only acute eccentric exercise group showed significance increase in apoptotic factors. SIGNIFICANCE these results revealed the apoptotic response to the exercise depends on the type and intensity of exercise and also on the sensitivity and susceptibility of the muscle.

Abstract
Exercise is recognized to provide both physical and psychological health benefits. However, oxidative stress can occur and induce muscular damages. SOD B®; M is a melon concentrate, well known to counteract oxidative stress and prevent its side effects. The present study aimed to evaluate the potential of the melon concentrate in the context of both a strong and isolated effort associated with deleterious effects, and a moderate and regular physical activity considered as beneficial. First, a preclinical study was set up on rats to evaluate its potential on the prevention of damages induced by an eccentric exercise. Secondly, the combined effect of the melon concentrate and a regular standardized physical training was studied on the overall physical condition of healthy subjects in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Repeated measures Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), student’s t test and Mann–Whitney test were used for statistical analyses. Melon concentrate helped to prevent gastrocnemius damages induced by the eccentric exercise. It allowed a reduction of fibrosis by approximately 38% and a reduction of Tumor Necrosis Factor- α (TNF-α) plasma level by 28%. This supplementation also induced a rearrangement of myosin fibers and an increase in PGC-1α plasma level. In the clinical study, melon concentrate was able to decrease oxidative stress and C-Reactive protein (CRP) plasma level. Besides, magnesium (Mg) plasma level was higher in the context of a regular training performed by healthy subjects supplemented with the melon concentrate. Therefore, the melon concentrate allowed a better adaptation to effort linked to PGC-1α activation: a regulator of energy metabolism. The antioxidant properties of the melon concentrate and its ability to mobilize magnesium also suggest that the supplementation could induce a better resistance to fatigue and recovery during regular physical activity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Reduction of muscle mass and strength is an important treatment target for patients with type 2 diabetes. Recent studies have reported that high-intensity resistance training improves physical function; however, all patients found it difficult to perform high-intensity resistance training. Radio calisthenics, considered as therapeutic exercises to promote health in Japan, are simple exercises that can be performed regardless of age and help move the muscles and joints of the whole body effectively according to the rhythm of radio. We investigated the efficacy of radio calisthenics for muscle mass in patients with type 2 diabetes in this retrospective cohort study. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 42 hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes were recruited. The skeletal muscle mass index (SMI, kg/m2) was calculated as appendicular muscle mass (kg) divided by height squared (m2). We defined the change of SMI as the difference of SMI between the beginning and end of hospitalization. RESULTS Among 42 patients, 15 (11 men and 4 women) performed radio calisthenics. Body weights of both radio calisthenics exercisers and non-exercisers decreased during hospitalization. The change of SMI was significantly lesser in radio calisthenics exercisers than in non-exercisers (7.1±1.4 to 7.1±1.3, -0.01±0.09 vs 6.8±1.1 to 6.5±1.2, -0.27±0.06 kg/m2, p=0.016). The proportion of decreased SMI was 85.2% (23/27 patients) in non-radio calisthenics exercisers, whereas that in radio calisthenics exercisers was 46.7% (7/15 patients). CONCLUSIONS Radio calisthenics prevent the reduction of skeletal muscle mass. Thus, radio calisthenics can be considered effective for patients with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
AbstractMuscle fibre types can transform from slow-twitch (slow myosin heavy chain (MyHC)) to fast-twitch (fast MyHC) or vice versa. Leucine plays a vital effect in the development of skeletal muscle. However, the role of leucine in porcine myofibre type transformation and its mechanism are still unclear. In this study, effects of leucine and microRNA-27a (miR-27a) on the transformation of porcine myofibre type were investigatedin vitro. We found that leucine increased slow MyHC protein level and decreased fast MyHC protein level, increased the levels of phospho-protein kinase B (Akt)/Akt and phospho-forkhead box 1 (FoxO1)/FoxO1 and decreased the FoxO1 protein level. However, blocking the Akt/FoxO1 signalling pathway by wortmannin attenuated the role of leucine in porcine myofibre type transformation. Over-expression of miR-27a decreased slow MyHC protein level and increased fast MyHC protein level, whereas inhibition of miR-27a had an opposite effect. We also found that expression of miR-27a was down-regulated following leucine treatment. Moreover, over-expression of miR-27a repressed transformation from fast MyHC to slow MyHC caused by leucine, suggesting that miR-27a is interdicted by leucine and then contributes to porcine muscle fibre type transformation. Our finding provided the first evidence that leucine promotes porcine myofibre type transformation from fast MyHC to slow MyHC via the Akt/FoxO1 signalling pathway and miR-27a.

Abstract
FoxO1, a member of the forkhead transcription factor forkhead box protein O (FoxO) family, is predominantly expressed in most muscle types. FoxO1 is a key regulator of muscle growth, metabolism, cell proliferation and differentiation. In the past two decades, many researches have indicated that FoxO1 is a negative regulator of skeletal muscle differentiation while contrasting opinions consider that FoxO1 is crucial for myoblast fusion. FoxO1 is expressed much higher in fast twitch fiber enriched muscles than in slow muscles and is also closely related to muscle fiber type specification. In this review, we summarize the molecular mechanisms of FoxO1 in the regulation of skeletal muscle differentiation and fiber type specification.

Abstract
Overtraining (OT) may be defined as an imbalance between excessive training and adequate recovery period. Recently, a downhill running-based overtraining (OTR/down) protocol induced the nonfunctional overreaching state, which is defined as a performance decrement that may be associated with psychological and hormonal disruptions and promoted intramuscular and systemic inflammation. To discriminate the eccentric contraction effects on interleukin 1beta (IL-1β), IL-6, IL-10, IL-15, and SOCS-3, we compared the release of these cytokines in OTR/down with other two OT protocols with the same external load (i.e., the product between training intensity and volume), but performed in uphill (OTR/up) and without inclination (OTR). Also, we evaluated the effects of these OT models on the muscle morphology and fiber type composition, serum levels of fatigue markers and corticosterone, as well as androgen receptor (AR) and glucocorticoid receptor (GR) expressions. For extensor digitorum longus (EDL), OTR/down and OTR groups increased the cytokines and exhibited micro-injuries with polymorphonuclear infiltration. While OTR/down group increased the cytokines in soleus muscle, OTR/up group only increased IL-6. All OT groups presented micro-injuries with polymorphonuclear infiltration. In serum, while OTR/down and OTR/up protocols increased IL-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor alpha, OTR group increased IL-1β, IL-6, IL-15, and corticosterone. The type II fibers in EDL and soleus, total and phosphorylated AR levels in soleus, and total GR levels in EDL and soleus were differentially modulated by the OT protocols. In summary, the proinflammatory cytokines were more sensitive for OTR/down than for OTR/up and OTR. Also, the specific treadmill inclination of each OT model influenced most of the other evaluated parameters.
