Label-free quantitative protein profiling of vastus lateralis muscle during human aging.

ABSTRACT: Sarcopenia corresponds to the loss of muscle mass occurring during aging, and is associated with a loss of muscle functionality. Proteomic links the muscle functional changes with protein expression pattern. To better understand the mechanisms involved in muscle aging, we performed a proteomic analysis of Vastus lateralis muscle in mature and older women. For this, a shotgun proteomic method was applied to identify soluble proteins in muscle, using a combination of high performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. A label-free protein profiling was then conducted to quantify proteins and compare profiles from mature and older women. This analysis showed that 35 of the 366 identified proteins were linked to aging in muscle. Most of the proteins were under-represented in older compared with mature women. We built a functional interaction network linking the proteins differentially expressed between mature and older women. The results revealed that the main differences between mature and older women were defined by proteins involved in energy metabolism and proteins from the myofilament and cytoskeleton. This is the first time that label-free quantitative proteomics has been applied to study of aging mechanisms in human skeletal muscle. This approach highlights new elements for elucidating the alterations observed during aging and may lead to novel sarcopenia biomarkers.

Project description:Impaired muscle regeneration has repeatedly been described after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL-R). The results of recent studies provided some evidence for negative alterations in knee extensor muscles after ACL-R causing persisting strength deficits in spite of the regain of muscle mass. Accordingly, we observed that 12 weeks of concentric/eccentric quadriceps strength training with eccentric overload (CON/ECC+) induced a significantly greater hypertrophy of the atrophied quadriceps muscle after ACL-R than conventional concentric/eccentric quadriceps strength training (CON/ECC). However, strength deficits persisted and there was an unexpected increase in the proportion of slow type I fibers instead of the expected shift towards a faster muscle phenotype after CON/ECC+. In order to shed further light on muscle recovery after ACL-R, the steady-state levels of 84 marker mRNAs were analyzed in biopsies obtained from the vastus lateralis muscle of 31 subjects before and after 12 weeks of CON/ECC+ (n = 18) or CON/ECC strength training (n = 13) during rehabilitation after ACL-R using a custom RT2 Profiler PCR array. Significant (p < 0.05) changes were detected in the expression of 26 mRNAs, several of them involved in muscle wasting/atrophy. A different pattern with regard to the strength training mode was observed for 16 mRNAs, indicating an enhanced hypertrophic stimulus, mechanical sensing or fast contractility after CON/ECC+. The effects of the type of autograft (quadriceps, QUAD, n = 19, or semitendinosus tendon, SEMI, n = 12) were reflected in the lower expression of 6 mRNAs involved in skeletal muscle hypertrophy or contractility in QUAD. In conclusion, the greater hypertrophic stimulus and mechanical stress induced by CON/ECC+ and a beginning shift towards a faster muscle phenotype after CON/ECC+ might be indicated by significant gene expression changes as well as still ongoing muscle wasting processes and a negative impact of QUAD autograft.
