Abstract Meat yield is important for beef industry for maximum profits. Enhancing muscle growth by promoting hypertrophy of muscle fiber is required for increasing meat yield. Growth hormone (GH)-insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF1) axis and metabolic hormones have a central role for regulating hypertrophy of muscle fiber. We investigated age-related changes in GH-IGF1 axis-regulating factors and metabolic hormones in beef cattle. Ten Korean cattle steers were used. The longissimus thoracis (LT) samples were biopsied between the 11th and 12th rib at 12, 18, and 24 months of age. Steers were slaughtered at 34 month of age and the LT samples were collected. The LT samples were used for histological observation of muscle fiber size and detection of mRNA levels by real-time PCR analysis. Blood was collected at 12, 18, 24, and 34 months of age and used for hormone analyses. The mean muscle fiber size increased (P < 0.01) from 12 to 24 months, and remained unchanged at 34 months. Plasma GH concentrations were unchanged with age, whereas circulating IGF-1 concentrations decreased (P < 0.001) with age. Testosterone and insulin concentrations increased from 12 to 24 months and remained unchanged at 34 months. Leptin concentrations were unchanged from 12 to 24 months and increased at 34 months. The mRNA levels of growth hormone receptor (GHR) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 5a/b (STAT5a/b) decreased (P < 0.01) from 12 to 24 months, whereas mRNA levels of IGF-1 gene increased (P < 0.001) with age. Results indicate that the increased muscle fiber size in LT from 12 to 24 months are characterized with increasing concentrations of circulating testosterone and insulin. Age-dependent changes in muscle fiber hypertrophy were also related with changes in GHR, STAT5a/b, IGF-1 mRNA levels in the LT.

Regulation of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and growth hormone (GH) receptor mRNA in liver and muscle by energy status was assessed in 2-mo-old pigs by altering thermoregulatory demand and energy intake over a 5-wk period to produce a range of plasma IGF-I concentrations from 3.5 +/- 0.7 to 28.9 +/- 6.2 nmol/l. These values were related directly to growth rates (0.06 +/- 0.02 to 0.44 +/- 0.01 kg/day) and total hepatic IGF-I mRNA levels. Increased growth rates were accompanied by an increase in hepatic class 1 and class 2 IGF-I mRNA levels and an increase in the ratio of class 2 to class 1 IGF-I mRNA in liver, suggesting a distinct role for class 2 expression in the endocrine growth response. High levels of class 1 transcripts and a virtual absence of class 2 transcripts characterized all muscle tissues examined, and there was no correlation with plasma IGF-I levels. This suggests that growth promotion in response to increased energy status is regulated via endocrine hepatic IGF-I rather than via a paracrine response. The levels of GH receptor mRNA were positively correlated with overall growth rate (P < 0.005) in liver and negatively correlated (P < 0.05) in muscle, indicating distinct tissue-specific effects of energy status.

Lewis, Michael I., Thomas J. LoRusso, and Mario Fournier.Effect of insulin-like growth factor I and/or growth hormone on diaphragm of malnourished adolescent rats. J. Appl. Physiol. 82(4): 1064–1070, 1997.—Young growing animals appear to have significantly reduced “nutritional reserve” to short periods of unstressed starvation compared with adults, with resultant growth arrest and/or atrophy of diaphragm (Dia) muscle fibers. The aim of this study was to assess in an adolescent rat model of acute nutritional deprivation (ND; 72 h) the impact of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), with or without added growth hormone (GH), on the cross-sectional areas (CSA) of individual Dia muscle fibers. Five groups were studied: 1) control (Ctr); 2) ND; 3) ND given IGF-I (ND/IGF-I); 4) ND given GH (ND/GH); and 5) ND given a combination of IGF-I and GH (ND/IGF-I/GH). IGF-I was given by a subcutaneously implanted osmotic minipump (200 μg/day), whereas GH was administered twice daily by a subcutaneous injection (250 μg every 12 h). Isometric contractile and fatigue properties of the Dia were determined in vitro. Forces were normalized for muscle CSA (i.e., specific force). Dia fiber type proportions were determined histochemically, and fiber CSA was quantified by using a computer-based image-processing system. Total serum IGF-I concentrations were significantly reduced in ND and ND/GH animals, compared with Ctr, and elevated in the groups receiving IGF-I. The provision of growth factors did not alter the contractile or fatigue properties of ND animals. Dia fiber type proportions were similar among the groups. In ND animals, there was a significant reduction in the CSA of types I, IIa, IIx, and IIc Dia fibers compared with Ctr. The administration of IGF-I alone or in combination with GH to ND animals significantly diminished the reduction in Dia fiber size. GH alone had no effect on Dia fiber size in ND animals. We conclude that with acute ND the peripheral resistance to the action of GH appears to be bypassed by the administration of IGF-I alone or in combination with GH.

AbstractWe evaluated whether castration affects bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) level and the expression of its signaling molecules in Korean cattle bulls. We also checked whether castration affects the expression of muscle fiber type and oxidative and glycolytic enzyme genes. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays revealed that steers had higher plasma BMP2 and leptin concentrations than bulls. Quantitative real-time PCR showed that steers had higher mRNA levels of the lysyl oxidase gene, a downstream target of the BMP signaling pathway, in the longissimus thoracis (LT) muscle. Steers had higher adipogenic peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma and lipogenic fatty acid binding protein 4 mRNA levels in the LT than bulls. Steers had lower mRNA levels for several muscle fiber type 1 genes and fiber type 2A myosin heavy chain 2 gene than bulls. Steers had higher mRNA levels of the glycolytic enzyme phosphoglycerate kinase 1 gene than bulls. Transcript levels of oxidative enzyme genes did not differ between bulls and steers. Regression analysis revealed a positive association between plasma BMP2 levels and intramuscular fat (IMF) content in the steer group. These findings suggest that upregulation of the BMP signaling pathway in response to castration induces increased adipogenic gene expression, contributing to the increased IMF deposition observed in castrated animals.
