Manini, email: // Keywords : fatigue; skeletal muscle; mitochondria; PGC-1α; Gerotarget Received : January 11, 2016 Accepted : June 09, 2016 Published : July 18, 2016 Abstract Fatigue is a symptom of many diseases, but it can also manifest as a unique medical condition, such as idiopathic chronic fatigue (ICF). While the prevalence of ICF increases with age, mitochondrial content and function decline with age, which may contribute to ICF. The purpose of this study was to determine whether skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysregulation and oxidative stress is linked to ICF in older adults. Sedentary, old adults ( n = 48, age 72.4 ± 5.3 years) were categorized into ICF and non-fatigued (NF) groups based on the FACIT-Fatigue questionnaire. ICF individuals had a FACIT score one standard deviation below the mean for non-anemic adults > 65 years and were excluded according to CDC diagnostic criteria for ICF. Vastus lateralis muscle biopsies were analyzed, showing reductions in mitochondrial content and suppression of mitochondrial regulatory proteins Sirt3, PGC-1α, NRF-1, and cytochrome c in ICF compared to NF. Additionally, mitochondrial morphology proteins, antioxidant enzymes, and lipid peroxidation were unchanged in ICF individuals. Our data suggests older adults with ICF have reduced skeletal muscle mitochondrial content and biogenesis signaling that cannot be accounted for by increased oxidative damage.

    الوصف: Muscle loss during aging and disuse is a highly prevalent and disabling condition, but knowledge about cellular pathways mediating muscle atrophy is still limited. Given the postmitotic nature of skeletal myocytes, the maintenance of cellular homeostasis relies on the efficiency of cellular quality control mechanisms. In this scenario, alterations in mitochondrial function are considered a major factor underlying sarcopenia and muscle atrophy. Damaged mitochondria are not only less bioenergetically efficient, but also generate increased amounts of reactive oxygen species, interfere with cellular quality control mechanisms, and display a greater propensity to trigger apoptosis. Thus, mitochondria stand at the crossroad of signaling pathways that regulate skeletal myocyte function and viability. Studies on these pathways have sometimes provided unexpected and counterintuitive results, which suggests that they are organized into a complex, heterarchical network that is currently insufficiently understood. Untangling the complexity of such a network will likely provide clinicians with novel and highly effective therapeutics to counter the muscle loss associated with aging and disuse. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge on the mechanisms whereby mitochondrial dysfunction intervenes in the pathogenesis of sarcopenia and disuse atrophy, and highlight the prospect of targeting specific processes to treat these conditions.

    الوصف: Behavioural and hereditary conditions are known to decrease mitochondrial volume and function within skeletal muscle. This reduces endurance performance, and is manifest both at high- and low-intensity levels of exertion. A programme of regular endurance exercise, undertaken over a number of weeks, produces significant adaptations within skeletal muscle such that noticeable improvements in oxidative capacity are evident, and the related decline in endurance performance can be attenuated. Notwithstanding the important implications that this has for the highly trained endurance athlete, an improvement in mitochondrial volume and function through regular physical activity also endows the previously sedentary and/or aging population with an improved quality of life, and a greater functional independence. An understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms that govern the increases in mitochondrial volume with repeated bouts of exercise can provide insights into possible therapeutic interventions to care for those with mitochondrially-based diseases, and those unable to withstand regular physical activity. This review focuses on the recent developments in the molecular aspects of mitochondrial biogenesis in chronically exercising muscle. Specifically, we discuss the initial signalling events triggered by muscle contraction, the activation of transcription factors involved in both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA transcription, as well as the post-translational import mechanisms required for mitochondrial biogenesis. We consider the importance and relevance of chronic physical activity in the induction of mitochondrial biogenesis, with particular emphasis on how an endurance training programme could positively affect the age-related decline in mitochondrial content and delay the progression of age- and physical inactivity-related diseases.

    الوصف: Near-infrared (NIR) light is a complementary therapy used to treat musculoskeletal injuries but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Acute NIR light treatment (~800-950 nm; 22.8 J/cm(2)) induced a dose-dependent increase in mitochondrial signaling (AMPK, p38 MAPK) in differentiated muscle cells. Repeated NIR light exposure (4 days) appeared to elevate oxidative stress and increase the upstream mitochondrial regulatory proteins AMPK (3.1-fold), p38 (2.8-fold), PGC-1α (19.7%), Sirt1 (26.8%), and reduced RIP140 (23.2%), but downstream mitochondrial regulation/content (Tfam, NRF-1, Sirt3, cytochrome c, ETC subunits) was unaltered. Our data indicates that NIR light alters mitochondrial biogenesis signaling and may represent a mechanistic link to the clinical benefits.

    الوصف: It is well established that contracting skeletal muscles produce free radicals. Given that radicals are known to play a prominent role in the pathogenesis of several diseases, the 1980s-90s dogma was that contraction-induced radical production was detrimental to muscle because of oxidative damage to macromolecules within the fibre. In contrast to this early outlook, it is now clear that both reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) play important roles in cell signalling pathways involved in muscle adaptation to exercise and the remodelling that occurs in skeletal muscle during periods of prolonged inactivity. This review will highlight two important redox sensitive signalling pathways that contribute to ROS and RNS-induced skeletal muscle adaptation to endurance exercise. We begin with a historical overview of radical production in skeletal muscles followed by a discussion of the intracellular sites for ROS and RNS production in muscle fibres. We will then provide a synopsis of the redox-sensitive NF-B and PGC-1α signalling pathways that contribute to skeletal muscle adaptation in response to exercise training. We will conclude with a discussion of unanswered questions in redox signalling in skeletal muscle in the hope of promoting additional research interest in this field.

    الوصف: The importance of the mitochondrial protein import pathway, discussed relative to other steps involved in the overall biogenesis of the organelle, are reviewed.Mitochondrial biogenesis is a product of complex interactions between the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. Signaling pathways, such as those activated by exercise, initiate the activation of transcription factors that increase the production of mRNA from nuclear and mitochondrial DNA. Nuclear gene products are translated in the cytosol as precursor proteins with inherent targeting signals. These precursor proteins interact with molecular chaperones that direct them to the import machinery of the outer membrane (Tom complex). The precursor is unfolded and transferred through the outer membrane, across the intermembrane space to the mitochondrial inner membrane translocases (Tim complex). Intramitochondrial components (mtHSP70) pull the precursor into the matrix, cleave off the targeting sequence (mitochondrial processing peptidase), and refold the protein (HSP60, cpn10) into its mature conformation. Physiological stressors such as contractile activity and thyroid hormone accelerate protein import into the mitochondria, coincident with an increase in the expression of some components of the import machinery. This is important for the overall expansion of the mitochondrial reticulum. Conversely, impairments in the import process can be a cause of mitochondrial dysfunction and disease.Efforts to further characterize the components of the import machinery, to define the role of specific machinery components on the import rate, and to examine protein import function in a variety of mitochondrial diseases are warranted.

    الوصف: Regularly performed exercise in the form of endurance training produces a well-established adaptation in skeletal muscle termed mitochondrial biogenesis. The physiological benefit of this is an enhanced performance of muscle when subject to endurance exercise. This is not only of great advantage for athletic endeavours, but it also clearly improves the quality of life of previously sedentary individuals and those involved in injury rehabilitation. Here we review the molecular basis for mitochondrial biogenesis in muscle, from the initial signals arising in contracting muscle, to the transcription factors involved in mitochondrial and nuclear DNA transcription, as well as the post-translational import mechanisms required for the synthesis of the organelle. We discuss specific protein components associated with reactive oxygen species production, and suggest some questions which remain unanswered with respect to the role of exercise-induced mitochondrial biogenesis in ageing, apoptosis and disease.

    الوصف: Apoptosis, or programmed cell death, is now recognized to be an important cellular event during normal development and in the progression of specific diseases. Apoptosis can be triggered by stimuli initiating outside of the cell, or within the mitochondria, leading to the activation of caspases and subsequent cell death. Although apoptosis has been widely studied in a variety of tissues over the last 5 years, skeletal muscle and heart have been relatively ignored in this regard. Research on apoptosis in cardiac muscle has recently taken on a higher profile as the recognition emerges that it may be an important contributor to specific cardiac pathologies, particularly in response to ischemia-reperfusion in which reactive oxygen species are formed. In skeletal muscle, very few studies have been done under specific physiological (e.g., exercise) and pathophysiological (e.g., dystrophies, denervation, myopathies) conditions. Skeletal muscle is unique in that it is mutli-nucleated, and evidence suggests that it can undergo individual myonuclear apoptosis as well as complete cell death. This review discusses the basic cellular mechanisms of apoptosis, as well as the current evidence of this process in cardiac and skeletal muscle. The need for more work in this area is highlighted, particularly in exercise and training.
