Project description:Older individuals subjected to complete bed rest for 10 days were randomized to a complete nutritional supplement with or without hydroxymethyl butyrate (HMB). Muscle biopsies from the vastus lateralis were obtained immediately prior and at the conclusion of the bed rest. RNA-sequencing was performed to determine the gene expression changes associated with bed rest. Marked decrease in the expression of genes associated with mitochondrial energy metabolism including fatty acid oxidation, TCA cycle and the electron transport chain was observed with bed rest. These effects were partly mitigated in the subjects provided the nutritional supplement with HMB.

RNA-sequencing was performed to determine the gene expression changes associated with bed rest. Marked decrease in the expression of genes associated with mitochondrial energy metabolism including fatty acid oxidation, TCA cycle and the electron transport chain was observed. Upstream regulator analysis revealed that many of these genes are downstream targets of the transcription factors PPAR, ERR and PGC-1alpha.

Project description:Muscle atrophy is one of the main deleterious consequences of physical inactivity. Bed rest represents a unique model of physical inactivity and results in main changes in muscle metabolic function. However, our knowledge on the detrimental effects of bed rest still needs clarification. The aim of this study was to decipher the mechanisms involved in disuse muscle atrophy and the effects of different countermeasures in healthy men. A cross-over trial was designed, with each trial consisting in a 7-day ambulatory control period for baseline data collection, followed by 21 days head-down tilt bed rest with or without resistive vibration exercise only or combined with nutritional (protein) supplement as countermeasures. The changes in the Vastus lateralis muscle proteome collected in the eight volunteers were characterized using mass spectrometry-based label-free quantitative proteomics.

Project description:Microgravity has a dramatic impact on human physiology, illustrated in particular with skeletal muscle impairment. A thorough understanding of the mechanisms leading to loss of muscle mass and structural disorders is necessary for the definition of efficient clinical and spaceflight countermeasures. We investigated the effects of long-term bed rest on transcriptome of soleus (SOL) and vastus lateralis (VL) muscles in healthy women (BRC group, n=8), and the potential beneficial impact of protein supplementation (BRN group, n=8) and of a combined resistance and aerobic training (BRE group, n=8). Gene expression profiles were obtained using an in-house made microarray containing 6681 muscles-relevant genes. A two-class statistical analysis was applied on the 2103 genes with consolidated expression. We identified 472 and 207 modified genes, respectively for SOL and VL in BRC group. Further clustering approaches, identifying relevant biological mechanisms or pathways, underlined five main subclusters. Three are composed almost of upregulated genes involved mainly in nucleic acid and protein metabolism, and two composed almost of downregulated genes involved in energy metabolism. Exercise countermeasure demonstrated a drastic compensatory effect, decreasing the number of differentially-expressed genes by 89 and 96% in SOL and VL. In contrast, nutrition countermeasure had a moderate effect and decreased the number of differentially-expressed genes by 40 and 25% in SOL and VL. Our results allowed reporting a systematic, global and comprehensive view of long-term woman muscle atrophy and brought new lights and insights for space environment and for women who undergo a long-term clinical bed rest. Biological samples were collected from Pre- and Post- bed rest (BR) soleus and vastus lateralis biopsies of each subject from the three groups (bed rest only: BRC; Exercise: BRE; Nutrition: BRN). six technical replicate values (2 duplicate hybridizations âa et bâ to chips with triplicate spots âxxxâ) were obtained for each skeletal muscle sample. Thus for each subject, 12 expression measurements (6 before BR and 6 after BR) were obtained for each muscle.

Project description:Short-term bed rest is used to simulate muscle disuse in humans. In our previous reports, we found that 5d of bed rest induced a ~4% loss of skeletal muscle mass in OLD (60-79 y) but not YOUNG (18-28 y) subjects. Identifying muscle transcriptional events in response to bed rest and age-related differences will help identify therapeutic targets to offset muscle loss in vulnerable older adult populations. Skeletal muscle dysregulation during bed rest in the old may be driven by alterations in molecules related to fibrosis, inflammation, and cell adhesion. This information may aide in the development of mechanistic-based therapies to combat muscle atrophy during short-term disuse. Short-term muscle disuse is also characterized by skeletal muscle insulin resistance, though this response is divergent across subjects. The mechanisms regulating inactivity-induced insulin resistance between populations that are more or less susceptible to disuse-induced insulin resistance are not known, and delineated by age. High Susceptibility participants were uniquely characterized with muscle gene responses described by a decrease in pathways responsible for lipid uptake and oxidation, decreased capacity for triglyceride export (APOB), increased lipogenesis (i.e., PFKFB3, FASN), and increased amino acid export (SLC43A1).

Project description:The common bed bug, Cimex lectularius, is an urban pest of global health significance, severely affecting the physical and mental health of humans. In contrast to most other blood-feeding arthropods, bed bugs are not major vectors of pathogens, but the underlying mechanisms for this phenomenon are largely unexplored. Here, we present the first transcriptomics study of bed bugs in response to immune challenges. To study transcriptional variations in bed begs following ingestion of bacteria, we extracted and processed mRNA from immune-related tissues of adult male bed bugs after ingestion of sterile blood or blood laced with the Gram-positive (Gr+) bacterium Bacillus subtilis or the Gram-negative (Gr–) bacterium Escherichia coli. We analyzed mRNA from the bed bugs’ midgut (the primary tissue involved in blood ingestion) and from the rest of their bodies (RoB; body minus head and midgut tissues).

Project description:Inactivity and unloading. induce skeletal muscle atrophy, loss of strength and detrimental metabolic effects. We used mass spectrometry-based proteomics to measure the abundance changes of proteins circulating in the blood plasma of young healthy subject undergoing ten days of continuous bed rest. Several plasma components, such as the complement cascade and lipid carriers, and proteins derived from the extracellular matrix and tissue leakage, such as lumican and teneurin-4, changed their abundance at different loading states of the body. Searching for potential plasma biomarkers relaying changes in muscle trophism, we identify common proteomic signatures distinguishing the majority of subjects undergoing extensive unloading-mediated muscle atrophy from those largely maintaining their initial muscle mass at the end of bed rest. Some of these plasma proteins also have different abundance in the serum proteome of cancer patients developing cachexia compared to that of healthy controls. Our findings highlight a combination or proteomic changes that can be explored as potential biomarkers of muscle atrophy occurring under different conditions.

Project description:Head-down bed rest (HDBR) is one of the models of the physiological effects of weightlessness used, among other things, to assess the effect of hypokinesia on the physiological systems of the human body and, first of all, on the cardiovascular system. The aim of the work was to study the effect of 21 days of HDBR factors on the cardiovascular system based on blood proteomic profile data. It was revealed that HDBR conditions led to an increase in the levels of proteins of the complement and the coagulation cascade systems, platelet degranulation, fibrinolysis, acute phase proteins, post-translational modification of proteins, retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4), apolipoprotein B, which are associated with cardiovascular diseases, and other proteins that affect the functions of endothelial cells. Blood levels of proteins involved in cytoskeletal remodelling, oxygen transport, heme catabolism, etc. have been shown to decrease during HDBR.

Project description:Environmental and psychological stressors can adversely affect astronaut cognitive performance in space. This study used a 6° head-down tilt bed rest (HDBR) paradigm to simulate some of the physiologic changes induced by microgravity. Twenty-four participants (mean ± SD age 33.3 ± 9.2 years, N = 16 men) spent 60 consecutive days in strict HDBR. They were studied in three groups of eight subjects each. One group served as Control, whereas the other two groups received either a continuous or intermittent artificial gravity (AG) countermeasure of 30 min centrifugation daily (1 g acceleration at the center of mass and 2 g at the feet). Participants performed all 10 tests of NASA's Cognition battery and a brief alertness and mood survey repeatedly before, during, and after the HDBR period. Test scores were adjusted for practice and stimulus set difficulty effects. A modest but statistically significant slowing across a range of cognitive domains was found in all three groups during HDBR compared to baseline, most consistently for sensorimotor speed, whereas accuracy was unaffected. These changes were observed early during HDBR and did not further worsen or improve with increasing time in HDBR, except for emotion recognition performance. With increasing time spent in HDBR, participants required longer time to decide which facial emotion was expressed. They were also more likely to select categories with negative valence over categories with neutral or positive valence. Except for workload, which was rated lower in the Control group, continuous or intermittent AG did not modify the effect of HDBR on cognitive performance or subjective responses. Participants expressed several negative survey responses during HDBR relative to baseline, and some of the responses further deteriorated during recovery, which highlights the importance of adequate medical and psychological support during extended duration HDBR studies. In conclusion, 60 days of HDBR were associated with moderate cognitive slowing and changes in emotion recognition performance, but these effects were not mitigated by either continuous or intermittent exposure to AG for 30 min daily.
