Denervated Frog Muscle

Denervation of skeletal muscle results in dramatic remodeling of the cellular and molecular composition of the muscle connective tissue. This remodeling is concentrated in muscle near neuromuscular junctions and involves the accumulation of interstitial cells and several extracellular matrix molecules. Given the role of extracellular matrix in neurite outgrowth and synaptogenesis, we predict that this remodeling of the junctional connective tissue directly influences the regeneration of the neuromuscular junction. As one step toward understanding the role of this denervation-induced remodeling in synapse formation, we have begun to look for the signals that are involved in initiating the junctional accumulations of interstitial cells and matrix molecules. Here, the role of muscle inactivity as a signal was examined. The distributions of interstitial cells, fibronectin, and tenascin were determined in muscles inactivated by presynaptic blockade of muscle activity with tetrodotoxin. We found that blockade of muscle activity for up to 4 wk produced neither the junctional accumulation of interstitial cells nor the junctional concentrations of tenascin and fibronectin normally present in denervated frog muscle. In contrast, the muscle inactivity induced the extrajunctional appearance of two synapse-specific molecules, the acetylcholine receptor and a muscle fiber antigen, mAb 3B6. These results demonstrate that the remodeling of the junctional connective tissue in response to nerve injury is a unique response of muscle to denervation in that it is initiated by a mechanism that is independent of muscle activity. Thus connective tissue remodeling in denervated skeletal muscle may be induced by signals released from or associated with the nerve other than the evoked release of neurotransmitter.

Introduction. Female patients with Mayer–Rokitansky–Küster–Hauser syndrome (MRKH) have high stigma scores; the condition severely affects the reproductive system. The study aimed at specification of morphological features and assessment of the maturity of connective tissues of the uterine rudiments in MRKH. Patients and methods. The study included 42 patients with vaginal and uterine aplasia having functioning uterine rudiments and 47 patients of the control group without genital malformations. Age of the patients was 20-24 years in 67.2% of the cases, and 31.2% of the patients were aged ≤ 19, inclusive. Immunohistochemi-cal assay was applied to determine expression levels of collagen I, collagen III, ММР2, ММР9, TIMP1, fibronectin and laminin proteins within the functioning uterine rudiments in comparison with levels of the same proteins in normally developed uterine tissues. Results. Decreased expression of collagen type I and elevated levels of MMP2 and MMP9 proteins in uterine tissues were observed for the group of patients with MRKH. Conclusions. 1) Uterine rudiments in patients with MRKH show variable degree of morphological similarity with the normally developed uterus; 2) The functioning uterine rudiments are subject to the same pathological processes as the normally developed uterus (myoma, endometriosis). 3) The functioning uterine rudiments in patients with MRKH show altered patterns of connective tissue remodeling, with decreased expression of collagen type I and increased expression of matrix metalloproteinases MMP2 and MMP9.
