Effect of denervation on the expression of glycogen phosphorylase in mouse skeletal muscle.

ABSTRACT: After sciatectomy of the left hind-limb of C57BL/J mice, a denervation-induced muscular atrophy ensued and was accompanied by a decrease in the specific activity of glycogen phosphorylase to approx. 25% of control values. The cofactor of phosphorylase, pyridoxal 5'-phosphate, was used as a specific label in the determination of the degradation rate of the enzyme following nerve section. After a delay of 3-4 days, phosphorylase was degraded approx, twice as rapidly in the denervated gastrocnemius (0.20 day-1) as in the control muscle (0.12 day-1). The effect of denervation on phosphorylase mRNA was measured by quantitative Northern-blot analysis using a rat skeletal-muscle phosphorylase cDNA probe. After an initial rapid decline, phosphorylase mRNA levels stabilized in denervated muscle at 50% of the value measured in the contralateral control muscle.

A thermal after-effect of UV irradiation of muscle glycogen phosphorylase b.

Project description:Different test systems are used to characterize the anti-aggregation efficiency of molecular chaperone proteins and of low-molecular-weight chemical chaperones. Test systems based on aggregation of UV-irradiated protein are of special interest because they allow studying the protective action of different agents at physiological temperatures. The kinetics of UV-irradiated glycogen phosphorylase b (UV-Phb) from rabbit skeletal muscle was studied at 37°C using dynamic light scattering in a wide range of protein concentrations. It has been shown that the order of aggregation with respect to the protein is equal to unity. A conclusion has been made that the rate-limiting stage of the overall process of aggregation is heat-induced structural reorganization of a UV-Phb molecule, which contains concealed damage.

Sodium valproate increases the brain isoform of glycogen phosphorylase: looking for a compensation mechanism in McArdle disease using a mouse primary skeletal-muscle culture in vitro.

Project description:McArdle disease, also termed 'glycogen storage disease type V', is a disorder of skeletal muscle carbohydrate metabolism caused by inherited deficiency of the muscle-specific isoform of glycogen phosphorylase (GP-MM). It is an autosomic recessive disorder that is caused by mutations in the PYGM gene and typically presents with exercise intolerance, i.e. episodes of early exertional fatigue frequently accompanied by rhabdomyolysis and myoglobinuria. Muscle biopsies from affected individuals contain subsarcolemmal deposits of glycogen. Besides GP-MM, two other GP isoforms have been described: the liver (GP-LL) and brain (GP-BB) isoforms, which are encoded by the PYGL and PYGB genes, respectively; GP-BB is the main GP isoform found in human and rat foetal tissues, including the muscle, although its postnatal expression is dramatically reduced in the vast majority of differentiated tissues with the exception of brain and heart, where it remains as the major isoform. We developed a cell culture model from knock-in McArdle mice that mimics the glycogen accumulation and GP-MM deficiency observed in skeletal muscle from individuals with McArdle disease. We treated mouse primary skeletal muscle cultures in vitro with sodium valproate (VPA), a histone deacetylase inhibitor. After VPA treatment, myotubes expressed GP-BB and a dose-dependent decrease in glycogen accumulation was also observed. Thus, this in vitro model could be useful for high-throughput screening of new drugs to treat this disease. The immortalization of these primary skeletal muscle cultures could provide a never-ending source of cells for this experimental model. Furthermore, VPA could be considered as a gene-expression modulator, allowing compensatory expression of GP-BB and decreased glycogen accumulation in skeletal muscle of individuals with McArdle disease.

Muscle Glycogen Phosphorylase and Its Functional Partners in Health and Disease.

Project description:Glycogen phosphorylase (PG) is a key enzyme taking part in the first step of glycogenolysis. Muscle glycogen phosphorylase (PYGM) differs from other PG isoforms in expression pattern and biochemical properties. The main role of PYGM is providing sufficient energy for muscle contraction. However, it is expressed in tissues other than muscle, such as the brain, lymphoid tissues, and blood. PYGM is important not only in glycogen metabolism, but also in such diverse processes as the insulin and glucagon signaling pathway, insulin resistance, necroptosis, immune response, and phototransduction. PYGM is implicated in several pathological states, such as muscle glycogen phosphorylase deficiency (McArdle disease), schizophrenia, and cancer. Here we attempt to analyze the available data regarding the protein partners of PYGM to shed light on its possible interactions and functions. We also underline the potential for zebrafish to become a convenient and applicable model to study PYGM functions, especially because of its unique features that can complement data obtained from other approaches.

Linc-RAM promotes muscle cell differentiation via regulating glycogen phosphorylase activity.

Project description:Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important regulators of diverse biological processes, especially skeletal muscle cell differentiation. Most of the lncRNAs identified to date are localized in the nucleus and play regulatory roles in gene expression. The cytoplasmic lncRNAs are less well understood. We previously identified a long intergenic non-coding RNA (linc-RNA) activator of myogenesis (Linc-RAM) that directly binds MyoD in the nucleus to enhance muscle cell differentiation. Here, we report that a substantial fraction of Linc-RAM is localized in the cytoplasm of muscle cells. To explore the molecular functions of cytoplasmic Linc-RAM, we sought to identify Linc-RAM-binding proteins. We report here that Linc-RAM physically interacts with glycogen phosphorylase (PYGM) in the cytoplasm. Knockdown of PYGM significantly attenuates the function of Linc-RAM in promoting muscle cell differentiation. Loss-of-function and gain-of function assays demonstrated that PYGM enhances muscle cell differentiation in an enzymatic activity-dependent manner. Finally, we show that the interaction between Linc-RAM and PYGM positively regulates the enzymatic activity of PYGM in muscle cells. Collectively, our findings unveil a molecular mechanism through which cytoplasmic Linc-RAM contributes to muscle cell differentiation by regulating PYGM activity. Our findings establish that there is crosstalk between lncRNAs and cellular metabolism during myogenic cell differentiation.

The expression of glycogen phosphorylase in normal and dystrophic muscle.

Project description:Specific cofactor labelling was employed to determine the degradation rate of glycogen phosphorylase in normal adult C57BL/6J mice and their dystrophic counterparts (C57BL/6Jdy/dy). The rate constant for the decay of phosphorylase-bound label was 0.125 day-1 in normal muscle and 0.49 day-1 in dystrophic muscle, i.e. a lower rate of catabolism of phosphorylase in dystrophic muscle. Quantitative Northern-blot analyses of total RNA isolated from normal and dystrophic muscle indicated that the abundance of phosphorylase mRNA as a percentage of total RNA was approx. 40% lower in dystrophic muscle. The specific activity of phosphorylase in dystrophic muscle is approx. 60% lower than in normal muscle, and is elicited by a lower rate of turnover of the enzyme, i.e. both synthesis and degradation are decreased.

Dynamic changes in the mouse skeletal muscle proteome during denervation-induced atrophy.

Project description:Loss of neuronal stimulation enhances protein breakdown and reduces protein synthesis, causing rapid loss of muscle mass. To elucidate the pathophysiological adaptations that occur in atrophying muscles, we used stable isotope labelling and mass spectrometry to quantify protein expression changes accurately during denervation-induced atrophy after sciatic nerve section in the mouse gastrocnemius muscle. Additionally, mice were fed a stable isotope labelling of amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) diet containing 13C6-lysine for 4, 7 or 11 days to calculate relative levels of protein synthesis in denervated and control muscles. Ubiquitin remnant peptides (K-ε-GG) were profiled by immunoaffinity enrichment to identify potential substrates of the ubiquitin-proteasomal pathway. Of the 4279 skeletal muscle proteins quantified, 850 were differentially expressed significantly within 2 weeks after denervation compared with control muscles. Moreover, pulse labelling identified Lys6 incorporation in 4786 proteins, of which 43 had differential Lys6 incorporation between control and denervated muscle. Enrichment of diglycine remnants identified 2100 endogenous ubiquitination sites and revealed a metabolic and myofibrillar protein diglycine signature, including myosin heavy chains, myomesins and titin, during denervation. Comparative analysis of these proteomic data sets with known atrogenes using a random forest approach identified 92 proteins subject to atrogene-like regulation that have not previously been associated directly with denervation-induced atrophy. Comparison of protein synthesis and proteomic data indicated that upregulation of specific proteins in response to denervation is mainly achieved by protein stabilization. This study provides the first integrated analysis of protein expression, synthesis and ubiquitin signatures during muscular atrophy in a living animal.

Microarray analysis of mouse skeletal muscle atrophied by denervation.

Project description:Muscle atrophy is associated with aging (sarcopenia) and chronic unloading (such as bed confinement and immobilization with casts), as well as various pathological conditions such as type 1 diabetes and nerve injury (denervation). C57BL/6 mice (7 weeks old, male) were denervated. After 14 days, skeletal muscle was collected and RNA extracted. Expression of Dnmt3a was reduced while expression of Gdf5 was increased by denervation.

Microarray Analysis of Gene Expression Provides New Insights Into Denervation-Induced Skeletal Muscle Atrophy.

Project description:Denervation induces skeletal muscle atrophy, accompanied by complex biochemical and physiological changes, with potentially devastating outcomes even an increased mortality. Currently, however, there remains a paucity of effective strategies to treat skeletal muscle atrophy. Therefore, it is required to understand the molecular mechanisms of skeletal muscle atrophy and formulate new treatment strategies. In this study, we investigated the transcriptional profile of denervated skeletal muscle after peripheral nerve injury in rats. The cDNA microarray analysis showed that a huge number of genes in tibialis anterior (TA) muscles were differentially expressed at different times after sciatic nerve transection. Notably, the 24 h of denervation might be a critical time point for triggering TA muscle atrophy. According to the data from self-organizing map (SOM), Pearson correlation heatmap, principal component analysis (PCA), and hierarchical clustering analysis, three nodal transitions in gene expression profile of the denervated TA muscle might partition the period of 0.25 h-28 days post nerve injury into four distinct transcriptional phases. Moreover, the four transcriptional phases were designated as "oxidative stress stage", "inflammation stage", "atrophy stage" and "atrophic fibrosis stage", respectively, which was concluded from Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) and Gene ontology (GO) analyses at each transcriptional phase. Importantly, the differentially expressed genes at 24 h post sciatic nerve transection seemed to be mainly involved in inflammation, which might be a critical process in denervation-induced muscle atrophy. Overall, our study would contribute to the understanding of molecular aspects of denervation-induced muscle atrophy, and may also provide a new insight into the time window for targeted therapy.
