Catabolic Response

Thermal injury is associated with a pronounced catabolic response in skeletal muscle, reflecting inhibited protein synthesis and increased protein breakdown, in particular myofibrillar protein breakdown. Administration of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) has a nitrogen-sparing effect after burn injury, but the influence of this treatment on protein turnover rates in skeletal muscle is not known. In the present study, we examined the effect of IGF-I on muscle protein synthesis and breakdown rates following burn injury in rats. After a 30% total body surface area burn injury or sham procedure, rats were treated with a continuous infusion of IGF-I (3.5 or 7 mg ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ 24 h−1) for 24 h. Protein synthesis and breakdown rates were determined in incubated extensor digitorum longus muscles. Burn injury resulted in increased total and myofibrillar protein breakdown rates and reduced protein synthesis in muscle. The increase in protein breakdown rates was blocked by both doses of IGF-I and the burn-induced inhibition of muscle protein synthesis was partially reversed by the higher dose of the hormone. IGF-I did not influence muscle protein turnover rates in nonburned rats. The results suggest that the catabolic response to burn injury in skeletal muscle can be inhibited by IGF-I.

Phosphatidylinositol 3

Burn injury elicits a marked, sustained hypermetabolic state in patients characterized by accelerated hepatic amino acid metabolism and negative nitrogen balance. The transport of glutamine, a key substrate in gluconeogenesis and ureagenesis, was examined in hepatocytes isolated from the livers of rats after a 20% total burn surface area full-thickness scald injury. A latent and profound two- to threefold increase in glutamine transporter system N activity was first observed after 48 h in hepatocytes from injured rats compared with controls, persisted for 9 days, and waned toward control values after 18 days, corresponding with convalescence. Further studies showed that the profound increase was fully attributable to rapid posttranslational transporter activation by amino acid-induced cell swelling and that this form of regulation may be elicited in part by glucagon. The phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors wortmannin and LY-294002 each significantly attenuated transporter stimulation by amino acids. The data suggest that PI3K-dependent system N activation by amino acids may play an important role in fueling accelerated hepatic nitrogen metabolism after burn injury.

The effects of sphingomyelinase, phosphorylcholine, N-acetylsphingosine (C2-ceramide), N-hexanoylsphingosine (C6-ceramide) and sphingosine on basal and insulin-stimulated cellular accumulation of 2-deoxy-D-glucose in rat soleus muscles were investigated. Preincubation of muscles with sphingomyelinase (100 or 200 m-units/ml) for 1 or 2 h augmented basal 2-deoxyglucose uptake by 29-91%, and that at 0.1 and 1.0 m-unit of insulin/ml by 32-82% and 19-25% respectively compared with control muscles studied at the same insulin concentrations. The sphingomyelinase-induced increase in basal and insulin-stimulated 2-deoxyglucose uptake was inhibited by 91% by 70 μM cytochalasin B, suggesting that it involves glucose transporters. Sphingomyelinase had no effect on the cellular accumulation of L-glucose, which is not transported by glucose transporters. The sphingomyelinase-induced increase in 2-deoxyglucose uptake could not be reproduced by preincubating the muscles with 50 μM phosphorylcholine, 50 μM C2-ceramide or 50 μM C6-ceramide. Preincubation of muscles with 50 μM sphingosine augmented basal 2-deoxyglucose transport by 32%, but reduced the response to 0.1 and 1.0 m-unit of insulin/ml by 17 and 27% respectively. The stimulatory effect of sphingomyelinase on basal and insulin-induced 2-deoxyglucose uptake was not influenced by either removal of Ca2+ from the incubation medium or dantrolene, an inhibitor of Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. This demonstrates that Ca2+ does not mediate the action of sphingomyelinase on 2-deoxyglucose uptake. Sphingomyelinase also had no effect on basal and insulin-stimulated activities of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase. In addition, 1 and 5 μM wortmannin, an inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, failed to inhibit the sphingomyelinase-induced increase in 2-deoxyglucose uptake. These results suggest that sphingomyelinase does not increase 2-deoxyglucose uptake by stimulating the insulin receptor or the initial steps of the insulin-transduction pathway. The data suggest the possibility that sphingomyelinase increases basal and insulin-stimulated 2-deoxyglucose uptake in skeletal muscle as the result of an unknown post-receptor effect.

The purpose of this study was to characterize the growth and remodeling molecular signaling response in aged skeletal muscle following 1 mo of “resistance-type exercise” training. Male Fischer 344 × Brown Norway hybrid rats aged 3 (young) and 30 mo (old) underwent stretch-shortening contraction (SSC) loading 2 or 3 days/wk; muscles were removed 72 h posttraining. Young rats SSC loaded 3 (Y3x) or 2 days/wk (Y2x) adapted via increased work performance. Old rats SSC loaded 3 days/wk (O3x) maladapted via decreased negative work; however, old rats SSC loaded 2 days/wk (O2x) adapted through improved negative and positive work. Y3x, Y2x, and O2x, but not O3x, displayed hypertrophy via larger fiber area and myonuclear domains. Y3x, Y2x, and O2x differentially expressed 19, 30, and 8 phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-Akt genes, respectively, whereas O3x only expressed 2. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that rats in the adapting groups presented growth and remodeling processes (i.e., increased protein synthesis), whereas O3x demonstrated inflammatory signaling. In conclusion, reducing SSC-loading frequency in aged rodents positively influences the molecular signaling microenvironment, promoting muscle adaptation. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Decreasing resistance-type exercise training frequency in old rodents led to adaptation through enhancements in performance, fiber areas, and myonuclear domains. Modifying frequency influenced the molecular environment through improvements in phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-Akt pathway-specific expression and bioinformatics indicating increased protein synthesis. Reducing training frequency may be appropriate in older individuals who respond unfavorably to higher frequencies (i.e., maladaptation); overall, modifying the parameters of the exercise prescription can affect the cellular environment, ultimately leading to adaptive or maladaptive outcomes.
