Chronic doxorubicin administration impacts satellite cell and capillary abundance in a muscle-specific manner.

ABSTRACT: Anthracycline chemotherapies are effective at reducing disease recurrence and mortality in cancer patients. However, these drugs also contribute to skeletal muscle wasting and dysfunction. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of chronic doxorubicin (DOX) administration on satellite cell and capillary densities in different skeletal muscles. We hypothesized that DOX would reduce satellite cell and capillary densities of the soleus (SOL) and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles, along with muscle fiber size. Ovariectomized female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized to receive three bi-weekly intraperitoneal injections of DOX (4 mg?kg-1 ; cumulative dose 12 mg?kg-1 ) or vehicle (VEH; saline). Animals were euthanized 5d following the last injection and the SOL and EDL were dissected and prepared for immunohistochemical and RT-qPCR analyses. Relative to VEH, CSA of the SOL and EDL fibers were 26% and 33% smaller, respectively, in DOX (P < 0.05). In the SOL, satellite cell and capillary densities were 39% and 35% lower, respectively, in DOX (P < 0.05), whereas in the EDL satellite cell and capillary densities were unaffected by DOX administration (P > 0.05). Proliferating satellite cells were unaffected by DOX in the SOL (P > 0.05). In the SOL, MYF5 mRNA expression was increased in DOX (P < 0.05), while in the EDL MGF mRNA expression was reduced in DOX (P < 0.05). Chronic DOX administration is associated with reduced fiber size in the SOL and EDL; however, DOX appeared to reduce satellite cell and capillary densities only in the SOL. These findings highlight that therapeutic targets to protect skeletal muscle from DOX may vary across muscles.

Project description:BackgroundSystemic elevations in PAI-1 suppress the fibrinolytic pathway leading to poor collagen remodelling and delayed regeneration of tibialis anterior (TA) muscles in type-1 diabetic Akita mice. However, how impaired collagen remodelling was specifically attenuating regeneration in Akita mice remained unknown. Furthermore, given intrinsic differences between muscle groups, it was unclear if the reparative responses between muscle groups were different.Principal findingsHere we reveal that diabetic Akita muscles display differential regenerative responses with the TA and gastrocnemius muscles exhibiting reduced regenerating myofiber area compared to wild-type mice, while soleus muscles displayed no difference between animal groups following injury. Collagen levels in TA and gastrocnemius, but not soleus, were significantly increased post-injury versus controls. At 5 days post-injury, when degenerating/necrotic regions were present in both animal groups, Akita TA and gastrocnemius muscles displayed reduced macrophage and satellite cell infiltration and poor myofiber formation. By 10 days post-injury, necrotic regions were absent in wild-type TA but persisted in Akita TA. In contrast, Akita soleus exhibited no impairment in any of these measures compared to wild-type soleus. In an effort to define how impaired collagen turnover was attenuating regeneration in Akita TA, a PAI-1 inhibitor (PAI-039) was orally administered to Akita mice following cardiotoxin injury. PAI-039 administration promoted macrophage and satellite cell infiltration into necrotic areas of the TA and gastrocnemius. Importantly, soleus muscles exhibit the highest inducible expression of MMP-9 following injury, providing a mechanism for normative collagen degradation and injury recovery in this muscle despite systemically elevated PAI-1.ConclusionsOur findings suggest the mechanism underlying how impaired collagen remodelling in type-1 diabetes results in delayed regeneration is an impairment in macrophage infiltration and satellite cell recruitment to degenerating areas; a phenomena that occurs differentially between muscle groups.
