Abstract
AIMS Recent years have witnessed an increasing research interest in the roles of transcription factor (TF)-gene regulatory network in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Thus, we sought to characterize the mechanistic insights based on the TF-gene regulatory network in skeletal muscle atrophy in T2DM. METHODS Differentially expressed TFs (DETFs) and mRNAs (DEmRNAs) were obtained in T2DM-related gene expression profiles (GSE12643, GSE55650, GSE166502, and GSE29221), followed by WGCNA, and GO and KEGG enrichment analyses. Next, the iRegulon plug-in unit of Cytoscape software was used to construct a TF-mRNA regulatory network. Besides, RT-qPCR and ChIP-seq were utilized to measure the expression of CEBPA and FGF21 in the skeletal muscle tissues or cells of T2DM rat models. At last, the effect of overexpression of FGF21 on the autophagy-lysosomal pathway was examined in skeletal muscle cells of T2DM rats. RESULTS Totally, 12 DETFs and 102 DEmRNAs were found in the skeletal muscle tissues of T2DM samples. The DEmRNAs were mainly enriched in the autophagy-lysosomal pathway. CEBPA affected the skeletal muscle atrophy in T2DM by regulating 5 target genes via the autophagy-lysosomal pathway. CEBPA could target FGF21. In addition, the expression of CEBPA was elevated, while the expression of FGF21 was diminished in the skeletal muscle tissues or cells of T2DM rats. The CEBPA-FGF21 regulatory network promoted skeletal muscle atrophy in T2DM by activating the autophagy-lysosomal pathway. CONCLUSION The CEBPA-FGF21 regulatory network may participate in the T2DM-induced skeletal muscle atrophy by regulating the autophagy-lysosomal pathway. Thus, our study provides interesting targets for prevention of skeletal muscle atrophy in T2DM.

Abstract
Sleep apnoea syndrome is characterized by recurrent episodes of oxygen desaturation and reoxygenation (intermittent hypoxia [IH]) and is a risk factor for insulin resistance/Type 2 diabetes. The induction of insulin resistance in skeletal muscle is a key phenomenon to develop diabetes. However, the mechanisms linking IH stress and insulin resistance remain elusive. We exposed human RD and mouse C2C12 muscle cells to normoxia or IH and measured their mRNA levels by real-time RT-PCR. We found that IH significantly increased the mRNA and protein levels of muscle-derived insulin resistance-factors (myokines) such as IL-8, osteonectin (ON), and myonectin (MN) in muscle cells. We further analysed the IH-induced expression mechanisms of IL-8, ON, and MN genes in muscle cells. Deletion analyses of the human myokine promoter(s) revealed that the regions -152 to -151 in IL-8, -105 to -99 in ON, and - 3741 to -3738 in MN promoters were responsible for the activation by IH in RD cells. The promoters contain consensus transcription factor binding sequences for OCT1 in IL-8 and MN promoters, and for NRF2 in ON promoter, respectively. The introduction of siRNA for OCT1 abolished the IH-induced expression(s) of IL-8 and MN and siRNA for NRF2 abolished the IH-induced expression of ON.

Abstract
Background: Mitochondrial dysfunction has been implicated in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes, but its contribution to the early stages of dysglycemia remains poorly understood. By collecting a high-resolution stage-based spectrum of dysglycemia, our study fills this gap by evaluating derangement in both the function and quantity of mitochondria. We sampled mitochondria in skeletal muscle and subcutaneous adipose tissues of subjects with progressive advancement of dysglycemia under a three-month exercise intervention. Methods: We measured clinical metabolic parameters and gathered skeletal muscle and adipose tissue biopsies before and after the three-month exercise intervention. We then assayed the number of mitochondria via citrate synthase (CS) activity and functional parameters with high-resolution respirometry. Results: In muscle, there were no differences in mitochondrial quantity or function at baseline between normoglycemics and prediabetics. However, the intervention caused improvement in CS activity, implying an increase in mitochondrial quantity. By contrast in adipose tissue, baseline differences in CS activity were present, with the lowest CS activity coincident with impaired fasting glucose and impaired glucose tolerance (IFG + IGT). Finally, CS activity, but few of the functional metrics, improved under the intervention. Conclusions: We show that in prediabetes, no differences in the function or amount of mitochondria (measured by CS activity) in skeletal muscle are apparent, but in adipose tissue of subjects with IFG + IGT, a significantly reduced activity of CS was observed. Finally, metabolic improvements under the exercise correlate to improvements in the amount, rather than function, of mitochondria in both tissues.

Abstract
Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is defined as any degree of glucose intolerance with onset or first recognition during pregnancy. Regular exercise is important for a healthy pregnancy and can lower the risk of developing GDM. For women with GDM, exercise is safe and can affect the pregnancy outcomes beneficially. A single exercise bout increases skeletal muscle glucose uptake, minimizing hyperglycemia. Regular exercise training promotes mitochondrial biogenesis, improves oxidative capacity, enhances insulin sensitivity and vascular function, and reduces systemic inflammation. Exercise may also aid in lowering the insulin dose in insulin-treated pregnant women. Despite these benefits, women with GDM are usually inactive or have poor participation in exercise training. Attractive individualized exercise programs that will increase adherence and result in optimal maternal and offspring benefits are needed. However, as women with GDM have a unique physiology, more attention is required during exercise prescription. This review (i) summarizes the cardiovascular and metabolic adaptations due to pregnancy and outlines the mechanisms through which exercise can improve glycemic control and overall health in insulin resistance states, (ii) presents the pathophysiological alterations induced by GDM that affect exercise responses, and (iii) highlights cardinal points of an exercise program for women with GDM.

Abstract
Obesity is associated with bioenergetic dysfunction of peripheral muscles; however, little is known regarding the impact of obesity on the diaphragm. We hypothesized that obesity would be associated with diaphragm dysfunction attributable to mitochondrial oxygen consumption and structural and ultrastructural changes. Wistar rat litters were culled to 3 pups to induce early postnatal overfeeding and consequent obesity. Control animals were obtained from unculled litters. From postnatal day 150, diaphragm ultrasound, computed tomography, high-resolution respirometry, immunohistochemical, biomolecular, and ultrastructural histological analyses were performed. The diaphragms of obese animals, compared with those of controls, presented changes in morphology as increased thickening fraction, diaphragm excursion, and diaphragm dome height, as well as increased mitochondrial respiratory capacity coupled to ATP synthesis and maximal respiratory capacity. Fatty acid synthase gene expression was also higher in obese animals, suggesting a source of energy for the respiratory chain. Myosin heavy chain-IIA was increased, indicating shift from glycolytic toward oxidative muscle fiber profile. Diaphragm tissue also exhibited ultrastructural changes, such as compact, round, and swollen mitochondria with fainter cristae and more lysosomal bodies. Dynamin-1 expression in the diaphragm was reduced in obese rats, suggesting decreased mitochondrial fission. Furthermore, gene expressions of peroxisome γ proliferator-activated receptor coactivator-1α and superoxide dismutase-2 were lower in obese animals than in controls, which may indicate a predisposition to oxidative injury. In conclusion, in the obesity model used herein, muscle fiber phenotype was altered in a manner likely associated with increased mitochondrial respiratory capability, suggesting respiratory adaptation to increased metabolic demand.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Obesity has been associated with peripheral muscle dysfunction; however, little is known about its impact on the diaphragm. In the current study, we found high oxygen consumption in diaphragm tissue and changes in muscle fiber phenotypes toward a more oxidative profile in experimental obesity.

Targeting Age-Dependent Functional and Metabolic Decline of Human Skeletal Muscle: The Geroprotective Role of Exercise, Myokine IL-6, and Vitamin D. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21031010.

Abstract
In the elderly, whole-body health largely relies on healthy skeletal muscle, which controls body stability, locomotion, and metabolic homeostasis. Age-related skeletal muscle structural/functional deterioration is associated with a higher risk of severe comorbid conditions and poorer outcomes, demanding major socioeconomic costs. Thus, the need for efficient so-called geroprotective strategies to improve resilience and ensure a good quality of life in older subjects is urgent. Skeletal muscle senescence and metabolic dysregulation share common cellular/intracellular mechanisms, potentially representing targets for intervention to preserve muscle integrity. Many factors converge in aging, and multifaceted approaches have been proposed as interventions, although they have often been inconclusive. Physical exercise can counteract aging and metabolic deficits, not only in maintaining tissue mass, but also by preserving tissue secretory function. Indeed, skeletal muscle is currently considered a proper secretory organ controlling distant organ functions through immunoactive regulatory small peptides called myokines. This review provides a current perspective on the main biomolecular mechanisms underlying age-dependent and metabolic deterioration of skeletal muscle, herein discussed as a secretory organ, the functional integrity of which largely depends on exercise and myokine release. In particular, muscle-derived interleukin (IL)-6 is discussed as a nutrient-level biosensor. Overall, exercise and vitamin D are addressed as optimal geroprotective strategies in view of their multi-target effects.

Abstract
High-intensity interval training has been reported to lower fasting blood glucose and improve insulin resistance of type 2 diabetes without clear underlying mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of high-intensity interval training on the glycolipid metabolism and mitochondrial dynamics in skeletal muscle of high-fat diet (HFD) and one-time 100 mg/kg streptozocin intraperitoneal injection-induced type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) mice. Our results confirmed that high-intensity interval training reduced the body weight, fat mass, fasting blood glucose, and serum insulin of the T2DM mice. High-intensity interval training also improved glucose tolerance and insulin tolerance of the T2DM mice. Moreover, we found that high-intensity interval training also decreased lipid accumulation and increased glycogen synthesis in skeletal muscle of the T2DM mice. Ultrastructural analysis of the mitochondria showed that mitochondrial morphology and quantity were improved after 8 weeks of high-intensity interval training. Western blot analysis showed that the expression of mitochondrial biosynthesis related proteins and mitochondrial dynamics related proteins in high-intensity interval trained mice in skeletal muscle were enhanced. Taken together, these data suggest high-intensity interval training improved fasting blood glucose and glucose homeostasis possibly by ameliorating glycolipid metabolism and mitochondrial dynamics in skeletal muscle of the T2DM mice.
