Project description:Many cancer survivors suffer from impairments in skeletal muscle (SkM), both in terms of reduced mass and function. Interestingly, human SkM possesses an epigenetic memory of earlier stimuli, such as exercise. Long-term retention of epigenetic changes in SkM following cancer survival and/or exercise training have not yet been studied. We therefore investigated genome-wide DNA methylation (the methylome) in SkM following a 5-month, 3/week treadmill-based aerobic training intervention in breast cancer survivors 10-14 years after diagnosis and treatment. These results were compared to breast cancer survivors who remained untrained and to age-matched controls with no history of cancer, who undertook the same training intervention. SkM biopsies were obtained before (pre) and after (post) the 5-month training period and DNA methylation was analysed using InfiniumEPIC 850K Arrays. The breast cancer survivors displayed a significant retention of increased DNA methylation (i.e., hypermethylation) at a larger number of differentially methylated positions (DMPs) compared with healthy age-matched controls pre-training. Training in cancer survivors led to an exaggerated number of DMPs with a hypermethylated signature occurring at more random non-regulatory regions across the DNA compared with training in healthy age-matched controls. However, the opposite occurred in important gene regulatory regions, where training in cancer survivors elicited a considerable reduction in methylation (i.e., hypomethylation) in 99% of the DMPs located specifically in CpG islands within promoter regions. Importantly, training was able to reverse the hypermethylation identified in cancer survivors back towards a hypomethylated signature that was observed pre-training in healthy age-matched controls at 300 (out of 881) of these island and promoter associated CpG sites. Pathway enrichment analysis identified that the training in cancer survivors evoked this predominantly hypomethylated signature in pathways associated with: Cell cycle, DNA replication and repair, transcription, translation, mTOR signalling and proteosome. Differentially methylated region (DMR) analysis also identified genes: BAG1, BTG2, CHP1, KIFC1, MKL2, MTR, PEX11B, POLD2, S100A6, SNORD104 and SPG7 as hypermethylated in breast cancer survivors with training reversing these CpG island / promoter associated DMRs towards a hypomethylated signature. Training also elicited a largely different epigenetic response in healthy individuals than that observed in cancer survivors, with very few overlapping changes. Only one gene, SIRT2, was identified as having altered methylation in cancer survivors at baseline as well as after training in both the cancer survivors and healthy controls. In conclusion, human SkM muscle retains a hypermethylated signature for as long as 10-14 years after breast cancer treatment and survival. Importantly, 5 months of aerobic training rejuvenated the SkM methylome towards signatures identified in healthy age-matched individuals in gene regulatory regions.

Project description:The goal of the endurance exercise training study in young adult rats was to perform exercise training studies in young adult (6-month-old) F344 rats, and from these rats collect multiple tissues in order to provide high quality samples for detailed analysis by chemical analysis sites. Tissues were collected from 10-12 rats sedentary control rats concurrent with the collection of the 8-week training groups. The 8-week training group and controls were from the same cohort and same age at euthanasia. For the older age group, an additional set of controls (n=5-6) were collected with the 1-2 week training group. Rats were either sedentary or underwent an exercise training program. Rats were exercised on the rodent treadmill 5 days per week using a progressive training protocol designed to exercise the rats at approximately 70% of VO2max and training was performed no earlier than 10:00 am and no later than 5:00 pm over 5 consecutive days per week. Training was initiated with the treadmill set at 70% of VO2 max and 5 degrees grade for 20 minutes. The duration of exercise was increased by one minute each day until day 31 of training (start of week 7), when a duration of 50 min was reached. Speed and grade of each training session increased in larger increments due to treadmill parameters. The highest intensity and duration of training began on day 31. This intensity was maintained for the final 10 days of the protocol to ensure steady state had been achieved. If any rats were unable to perform at least 4 days of training per week they were removed from the study and euthanized. It is important to note that the starting treadmill speed varied depending on the sex and age of the rat. The initial and maximum speeds were based on VO2max measurements obtained during the pre-training testing of the compliant rats. Rats assigned to the control group followed a schedule similar to the training group. They were placed in one lane on the treadmill for 15 minutes/day, 5 days per week. The treadmill was set at 0 m/min at an incline that corresponded to the incline being used by the training group.
