Enhanced capacity for CaMKII signaling mitigates calcium release related contractile fatigue with high intensity exercise. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA. MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2024; 1871:119610. [PMID: 37913845 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2023.119610] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/16/2023] [Revised: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We tested whether enhancing the capacity for calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase type II (CaMKII) signaling would delay fatigue of excitation-induced calcium release and improve contractile characteristics of skeletal muscle during fatiguing exercise. METHODS Fast and slow type muscle, gastrocnemius medialis (GM) and soleus (SOL), of rats and mouse interosseus (IO) muscle fibers, were transfected with pcDNA3-based plasmids for rat α and β CaMKII or empty controls. Levels of CaMKII, its T287-phosphorylation (pT287-CaMKII), and phosphorylation of components of calcium release and re-uptake, ryanodine receptor 1 (pS2843-RyR1) and phospholamban (pT17-PLN), were quantified biochemically. Sarcoplasmic calcium in transfected muscle fibers was monitored microscopically during trains of electrical excitation based on Fluo-4 FF fluorescence (n = 5-7). Effects of low- (n = 6) and high- (n = 8) intensity exercise on pT287-CaMKII and contractile characteristics were studied in situ. RESULTS Co-transfection with αCaMKII-pcDNA3/βCaMKII-pcDNA3 increased α and βCaMKII levels in SOL (+45.8 %, +250.5 %) and GM (+40.4 %, +89.9 %) muscle fibers compared to control transfection. High-intensity exercise increased pT287-βCaMKII and pS2843-RyR1 levels in SOL (+269 %, +151 %) and GM (+354 %, +119 %), but decreased pT287-αCaMKII and p17-PLN levels in GM compared to SOL (-76 % vs. +166 %; 0 % vs. +128 %). α/β CaMKII overexpression attenuated the decline of calcium release in muscle fibers with repeated excitation, and mitigated exercise-induced deterioration of rates in force production, and passive force, in a muscle-dependent manner, in correlation with pS2843-RyR1 and pT17-PLN levels (|r| > 0.7). CONCLUSION Enhanced capacity for α/β CaMKII signaling improves fatigue-resistance of active and passive contractile muscle properties in association with RyR1- and PLN-related improvements in sarcoplasmic calcium release.

Abstract
The marsupial Monito del monte (Dromiciops gliroides) utilizes both daily and seasonal bouts of torpor to preserve energy and prolong survival during periods of cold and unpredictable food availability. Torpor involves changes in cellular metabolism, including specific changes to gene expression that is coordinated in part, by the posttranscriptional gene silencing activity of microRNAs (miRNA). Previously, differential miRNA expression has been identified in D. gliroides liver and skeletal muscle; however, miRNAs in the heart of Monito del monte remained unstudied. In this study, the expression of 82 miRNAs was assessed in the hearts of active and torpid D. gliroides, finding that 14 were significantly differentially expressed during torpor. These 14 miRNAs were then used in bioinformatic analyses to identify Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways that were predicted to be most affected by these differentially expressed miRNAs. Overexpressed miRNAs were predicted to primarily regulate glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis, along with various signaling pathways such as Phosphoinositide-3-kinase/protein kinase B and transforming growth factor-β. Similarly, signaling pathways including phosphatidylinositol and Hippo were predicted to be regulated by the underexpression of miRNAs during torpor. Together, these results suggest potential molecular adaptations that protect against irreversible tissue damage and enable continued cardiac and vascular function despite hypothermia and limited organ perfusion during torpor.

A biomaterial-based therapy for lower limb ischemia using Sr/Si bioactive hydrogel that inhibits skeletal muscle necrosis and enhances angiogenesis. Bioact Mater 2023; 26:264-278. [PMID: 36942010 PMCID: PMC10023857 DOI: 10.1016/j.bioactmat.2023.02.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/25/2023] [Indexed: 03/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Muscle necrosis and angiogenesis are two major challenges in the treatment of lower-limb ischemic diseases. In this study, a triple-functional Sr/Si-containing bioceramic/alginate composite hydrogel with simultaneous bioactivity in enhancing angiogenesis, regulating inflammation, and inhibiting muscle necrosis was designed to treat lower-limb ischemic diseases. In particular, sodium alginate, calcium silicate and strontium carbonate were used to prepare injectable hydrogels, which was gelled within 10 min. More importantly, this composite hydrogel sustainedly releases bioactive Sr2+ and SiO3 2- ions within 28 days. The biological activity of the bioactive ions released from the hydrogels was verified on HUVECs, SMCs, C2C12 and Raw 264.7 cells in vitro, and the therapeutic effect of the hydrogel was confirmed using C57BL/6 mouse model of femoral artery ligation in vivo. The results showed that the composite hydrogel stimulated angiogenesis, developed new collateral capillaries, and re-established the blood supply. In addition, the bioactive hydrogel directly promoted the expression of muscle-regulating factors (MyoG and MyoD) to protect skeletal muscle from necrosis, inhibited M1 polarization, and promoted M2 polarization of macrophages to reduce inflammation, thereby protecting skeletal muscle cells and indirectly promoting vascularization. Our results indicate that these bioceramic/alginate composite bioactive hydrogels are effective biomaterials for treating hindlimb ischemia and suggest that biomaterial-based approaches may have remarkable potential in treating ischemic diseases.

Abstract
Electric pulses, when applied to a cell suspension, induce a reversible permeabilization of the plasma membrane. This permeabilized state is a long-lived process (minutes). The biophysical molecular mechanisms supporting the membrane reorganization associated to its permeabilization remain poorly understood. Modeling the transmembrane structures as toroidal lipidic pores cannot explain why they are long-lived and why their resealing is under the control of the ATP level. Our results describe the effect of the level of free Calcium ions. Permeabilization induces a Ca2+ burst as previously shown by imaging of cells loaded with Fluo-3. But this sharp increase is reversible even when Calcium is present at a millimolar concentration. Viability is preserved to a larger extent when submillimolar concentrations are used. The effect of calcium ions is occurring during the resealing step not during the creation of permeabilization as the same effect is observed if Ca2+ is added in the few seconds following the pulses. The resealing time is faster when Ca2+ is present in a dose-dependent manner. Mg2+ is observed to play a competitive role. These observations suggest that Ca2+ is acting not on the external leaflet of the plasma membrane but due to its increased concentration in the cytoplasm. Exocytosis will be enhanced by this Ca2+ burst (but hindered by Mg2+) and occurs in the electropermeabilized part of the cell surface. This description is supported by previous theoretical and experimental results. The associated fusion of vesicles will be the support of resealing.

Abstract
In recent years, cancer electrochemotherapy (ECT), gene electrotransfer for gene therapy and DNA vaccination (GET) and tissue ablation with irreversible electroporation (IRE) have all entered clinical practice. We present a method for a personalized treatment planning procedure for ECT, GET and IRE, based on medical image analysis, numerical modelling of electroporation and optimization with the genetic algorithm, and several visualization tools for treatment plan assessment. Each treatment plan provides the attending physician with optimal positions of electrodes in the body and electric pulse parameters for optimal electroporation of the target tissues. For the studied case of a deep-seated tumour, the optimal treatment plans for ECT and IRE require at least two electrodes to be inserted into the target tissue, thus lowering the necessary voltage for electroporation and limiting damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. In GET, it is necessary to place the electrodes outside the target tissue to prevent damage to target cells intended to express the transfected genes. The presented treatment planning procedure is a valuable tool for clinical and experimental use and evaluation of electroporation-based treatments.
