Project description:Regulated in DNA Damage and Development 1 (REDD1) is a stress induced protein whose expression is highly induced in skeletal muscle following a single bout of aerobic exercise. However, the role of this induction is unknown We used microarrays to detail the change in gene signature within skeletal muscle following a single bout of aerobic exercise in wild type and REDD1 null mice
Project description:We performed RNA-seq in the liver of wild-type (WT) mice in response to a single bout aerobic exercise. Exercise induced the downregulation of insulin signaling pathway.
Project description:Skeletal muscle has a unique ability to remodel in response to stimuli such as contraction and aerobic exercise training. Phenotypic changes in muscle that occur with training such as a switch to a more oxidative fiber type, and increased capillary density contribute to the well-known health benefits of aerobic exercise. The muscle matrisome likely plays an important role in muscle remodeling with exercise. However, due to technical limitations in studying muscle ECM proteins, which are highly insoluble, little is known about the muscle matrisome and how it contributes to muscle remodeling. Here, we utilized two-fraction methodology to extract muscle proteins, combined with multiplexed tandem mass tag proteomic technology to identify 161 unique ECM proteins in mouse skeletal muscle. In addition, we demonstrate that aerobic exercise training induces remodeling of a significant proportion of the muscle matrisome. We performed follow-up experiments to validate exercise-regulated ECM targets in a separate cohort of mice using Western blotting and immunofluorescence imaging. Our data demonstrate that changes in several key ECM targets are strongly associated with muscle remodeling processes such as increased capillary density in mice. We also identify LOXL1 as a novel muscle ECM target associated with aerobic capacity in humans. In addition, publically available data and databases were used for in silico modeling to determine the likely cellular sources of exercise-induced ECM remodeling targets and identify ECM interaction networks. This work greatly enhances our understanding of ECM content and function in skeletal muscle and demonstrates an important role for ECM remodeling in the adaptive response to exercise.

Project description:The processes of adaptation to environmental heat and aerobic exercise training improve efficiency in various body systems and bring about acclimatory homeostasis. In order to examine the global genomic responses of the soleus and heart following exposure of rats to these stressors, nylon cDNA Atlas Array was used. Male rats were exposed to one of the following stressors: heat acclimation, aerobic training (treadmill), and combined heat acclimation and aerobic training for short (2, 3 days) and long (1 mo) time period. The study comprised seven experimental groups: Controls-untreated. Heat acclimated groups (2dac, Acc)– exposure to environmental heat at 34C for 2 or 30 days. Exercise groups (3dex, Ex)– graduated training protocol under normothermic conditions for 3 and 30 days at 24C. Exercise training and heat acclimation – (3dexac, ExAc)- exposed to both environmental heat and aerobic exercise as above. The Series data tables appended below: 1) Heart - normalized log2 ratio of geomeans defined as treatment/control 2) Soleus - normalized log2 ratio of geomeans defined as treatment/control Keywords: stress response

Project description:Mechanistic insights into the molecular events by which exercise enhances the skeletal muscle phenotype are lacking, particularly in the context of type 2 diabetes. Here we unravel a fundamental role for exercise-responsive cytokines (exerkines) on skeletal muscle development and growth in individuals with normal glucose tolerance or type 2 diabetes. Acute exercise triggered an inflammatory response in skeletal muscle, concomitant with an infiltration of immune cells. These exercise effects were potentiated in type 2 diabetes. In response to contraction or hypoxia, cytokines were mainly produced by endothelial cells and macrophages. The chemokine CXCL12 was induced by hypoxia in endothelial cells, as well as by conditioned medium from contracted myotubes in macrophages. We found that CXCL12 was associated with skeletal muscle remodeling after exercise and differentiation of cultured muscle. Collectively, acute aerobic exercise mounts a non-canonical inflammatory response, with an atypical production of exerkines, which is potentiated in type 2 diabetes.
