Abstract
Improving inflammation may serve as useful therapeutic interventions for the hindlimb unloading-induced disuse muscle atrophy. Celecoxib is a selective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. We aimed to determine the role and mechanism of celecoxib in hindlimb unloading-induced disuse muscle atrophy. Celecoxib significantly attenuated the decrease in soleus muscle mass, hindlimb muscle function and the shift from slow- to fast-twitch muscle fibers caused by hindlimb unloading in rats. Importantly, celecoxib inhibited the increased expression of inflammatory factors, macrophage infiltration in damaged soleus muscle. Mechanistically, Celecoxib could significantly reduce oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress in soleus muscle of unloaded rats. Furthermore, celecoxib inhibited muscle proteolysis by reducing the levels of MAFbx, MuRF1, and autophagy related proteins maybe by inhibiting the activation of pro-inflammatory STAT3 pathway in vivo and in vitro. This study is the first to demonstrate that celecoxib can attenuate disuse muscle atrophy caused by hindlimb unloading via suppressing inflammation, oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum stress probably, improving target muscle function and reversing the shift of muscle fiber types by inhibiting STAT3 pathways-mediated inflammatory cascade. This study not only enriches the potential molecular regulatory mechanisms, but also provides new potential therapeutic targets for disuse muscle atrophy.

Antioxidant effects of LEDT in dystrophic muscle cells: involvement of PGC-1α and UCP-3 pathways. Photochem Photobiol Sci 2024; 23:107-118.

Abstract
PURPOSE Reactive oxygen species and mitochondrial dysfunction play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The light-emitting diode therapy (LEDT) showed beneficial effects on the dystrophic muscles. However, the mechanisms of this therapy influence the molecular pathways in the dystrophic muscles, particularly related to antioxidant effects, which still needs to be elucidated. The current study provides muscle cell-specific insights into the effect of LEDT, 48 h post-irradiation, on oxidative stress and mitochondrial parameters in the dystrophic primary muscle cells in culture. METHODS Dystrophic primary muscle cells were submitted to LEDT, at multiple wavelengths (420 nm, 470 nm, 660 nm and 850 nm), 0.5 J dose, and evaluated after 48 h based on oxidative stress markers, antioxidant enzymatic system and biogenesis, and functional mitochondrial parameters. RESULTS The mdx muscle cells treated with LEDT showed a significant reduction of H2O2 production and 4-HNE, catalase, SOD-2, and GR levels. Upregulation of UCP3 was observed with all wavelengths while upregulation of PGC-1α and a slight upregulation of electron transport chain complexes III and V was only observed following 850 nm LEDT. In addition, the mitochondrial membrane potential and mitochondrial mass mostly tended to be increased following LEDT, while parameters like O2·- production tended to be decreased. CONCLUSION The data shown here highlight the potential of LEDT as a therapeutic agent for DMD through its antioxidant action by modulating PGC-1α and UCP3 levels.

LED therapy plus idebenone treatment targeting calcium and mitochondrial signaling pathways in dystrophic muscle cells. Cell Stress Chaperones 2023; 28:773-785.

Abstract
Intracellular calcium dysregulation, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction are some of the main pathway contributors towards disease progression in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). This study is aimed at investigating the effects of light emitting diode therapy (LEDT) and idebenone antioxidant treatment, applied alone or together in dystrophic primary muscle cells from mdx mice, the experimental model of DMD. Mdx primary muscle cells were submitted to LEDT and idebenone treatment and evaluated for cytotoxic effects and calcium and mitochondrial signaling pathways. LEDT and idebenone treatment showed no cytotoxic effects on the dystrophic muscle cells. Regarding the calcium pathways, after LEDT and idebenone treatment, a significant reduction in intracellular calcium content, calpain-1, calsequestrin, and sarcolipin levels, was observed. In addition, a significant reduction in oxidative stress level markers, such as H2O2, and 4-HNE levels, was observed. Regarding mitochondrial signaling pathways, a significant increase in oxidative capacity (by OCR and OXPHOS levels) was observed. In addition, the PGC-1α, SIRT-1, and PPARδ levels were significantly higher in the LEDT plus idebenone treated-dystrophic muscle cells. Together, the findings suggest that LEDT and idebenone treatment, alone or in conjunction, can modulate the calcium and mitochondrial signaling pathways, such as SLN, SERCA 1, and PGC-1α, contributing towards the improvement of the dystrophic phenotype in mdx muscle cells. In addition, data from the LEDT plus idebenone treatment showed slightly better results than those of each separate treatment in terms of SLN, OXPHOS, and SIRT-1.

Abstract
Musculoskeletal disorders include rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, sarcopenia, injury, stiffness, and bone loss. The prevalence of these conditions is frequent among elderly populations with significant mobility and mortality rates. This may lead to extreme discomfort and detrimental effect on the patient’s health and socioeconomic situation. Muscles, ligaments, tendons, and soft tissue are vital for body function and movement. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are regulatory proteases involved in synthesizing, degrading, and remodeling extracellular matrix (ECM) components. By modulating ECM reconstruction, cellular migration, and differentiation, MMPs preserve myofiber integrity and homeostasis. In this review, the role of MMPs in skeletal muscle function, muscle injury and repair, skeletal muscle inflammation, and muscular dystrophy and future approaches for MMP-based therapies in musculoskeletal disorders are discussed at the cellular and molecule level.
