Project description:Changes and plasticity in both gene expression and protein signaling in skeletal muscle is considered to be a major cause of metabolic syndrome, while it has been shown that mild exercise training at lactate threshold (LT) intensity is a safe and effective for prevention of metabolic syndrome. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms related to the beneficial effects of LT training for 60 min/day for 5 days/wk for 12 wk, we performed serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) to examine global mRNA expression in human skeletal muscle. Approximately 57000 SAGE tags were analyzed for before training, as well as 5 days, 6 and 12 wk after the training. The LT training has coordinately induced many genes involved in mitochondrial energy metabolism, fat oxidation, glycolysis and creatine metabolism. Another molecular feature associated with this mild exercise regimen has been an induction of many genes encoding for potent antioxidant enzymes and molecular chaperons. Furthermore, the training modulated the expression levels of 233 novel transcripts. Thus, the current study reveals that LT exercise has favorably altered gene expression in human skeletal muscle to the prevention of metabolic syndrome.

Project description:Skeletal muscle adapts to exercise training of various modes, intensities and durations with a programmed gene expression response. This study dissects the independent and combined effects of exercise mode, intensity and duration to identify which exercise has the most positive effects on skeletal muscle health. Full details on exercise groups can be found in: Kraus et al Med Sci Sports Exerc. 2001 Oct;33(10):1774-84 and Bateman et al Am J Cardiol. 2011 Sep 15;108(6):838-44. This study uses a middle aged group of subjects that have 3+ markers of metabolic syndrome. One group remains an inactive control, while 5 groups undergo 9 mo supervised exercise training. Exercise groups are as follows: Inactive control (group B); Mild aerobic exercise - low amount/mod intensity (group A); Moderate aerobic exercise - low amt/vig intensity (group D); High aerobic exercise - high amt/vig intensity (group C); resistance training only (group F); and mod aerobic + resistance training (group E). Each group has 10 subjects (5 men and 5 women), however 3 subjects failed array QC, leaving 8 subjects in group E and 9 subjects in group F. Data were all analyzed pre to post training in a RM ANCOVA, covaried for age and sex or regression to determine genotype/phenotype interactions.
Project description:A single bout of exercise induces changes in gene expression in skeletal muscle. Regular exercise results in an adaptive response involving changes in muscle architecture and biochemistry, and is an effective way to manage and prevent common human diseases such as obesity, cardiovascular disorders and type II diabetes. Our study is a transcriptome-wide analysis of skeletal muscle tissue in a large cohort of untrained Thoroughbred horses before and after a bout of high-intensity exercise and again after an extended period of training. We hypothesized that regular high-intensity exercise training primes the transcriptome for the demands of high-intensity exercise.
Project description:Context: Exercise training is a plausible model for identification of molecular mechanisms that cause metabolic-related changes in human skeletal muscle. Objective: The goal was to explore the molecular basis of the adaptation of skeletal muscle to exercise training. Design and Intervention: Obese male subjects were subjected to an individualized supervised training program targeted in order to optimize lipid oxidation during 8 weeks. Main Outcome Measures: Primary outcome measures were gene expression profiling of skeletal muscle. Body composition, oral glucose tolerance test, Resting metabolic rate, respiratory quotient, maximal oxygen uptake and metabolic biochemistry were also assessed.
Project description:In the present study 23 participants completed three months of supervised aerobic exercise training of one leg (training period 1) followed by 9 months of rest before 12 of the participants completed a second exercise training period (training period 2) of three months of both legs. Skeletal muscle biopsies have been collected before and after the training periods. We have compared trained leg with untrained leg and studied gene and isoform expression. Additional samples included in this study has been previously submitted (GEO accession number GSE58387 and GSE60590). Analyze of transcriptome in skeletal muscle biopsy samples in response to exercise training in 23 participants in total (in addition to data previously submitted GEO accession number GSE58387 and GSE60590). Biopsy is collected from skeletal muscle before and after training period.
Project description:The few investigations on exercise-induced global gene expression responses in human skeletal muscle haves typically focused at one specific mode of exercise and few such studies have implemented control measures. However, interpretation on distinct phenotype regulation necessitate comparison between essentially different modes of exercise and the ability to identify true exercise effects, necessitate implementation of independent non-exercise control subjects. Furthermore, muscle transkriptometranscriptome data made available through previous exercise studies can be difficult to extract and interpret by individuals that are inexperienced with bioinformatic procedures. In a comparative study, we; (1) investigated the human skeletal muscle transcriptome response to differentiated exercise and non-exercise control intervention, and; (2) aimed to develop a straightforward search tool to allow for easy extraction and interpretation of our data. We provide a simple spreadsheet containing transcriptome data allowing other investigators to see how mRNA of their interest behave in skeletal muscle following exercise, both endurance, strength and non-exercise. Our approach, allow investigators easy access to information on genuine transcriptome effects of differentiated exercise, to better aid hyporthesis-driven question in this particular field of research. 18 subjects were divided into 3 groups, performing 12 weeks of Endurance or Strength training or no training. Biopsies for microarray were take before (Pre) and 2½ and 5 hours after the last training session. Isolated RNA from these biopsies were then measured with the Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays.

Project description:Exercise is an effective strategy in the prevention and treatment of metabolic diseases. Alterations in the skeletal muscle proteome, including post-translational modifications, regulate its metabolic adaptations to exercise. Here, we examined the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on the proteome and acetylome of human skeletal muscle, revealing the response of 3168 proteins and 1263 lysine acetyl-sites on 464 acetylated proteins. We identified novel protein adaptations to exercise training involved in metabolism and excitation-contraction coupling. Furthermore, HIIT increased the acetylation of mitochondrial proteins, particularly those of complex V, likely via non-enzymatic mechanisms. We also highlight the regulation of novel exercise-responsive histone acetyl-sites. These data demonstrate the plasticity of the skeletal muscle proteome and acetylome, providing insight into the regulation of contractile, metabolic and transcriptional processes within skeletal muscle. Herein, we provide a substantial hypothesis-generating resource to stimulate further mechanistic research investigating how exercise improves metabolic health.

Main Outcome Measures: Primary outcome measures were gene expression profiling of skeletal muscle. Body composition, oral glucose tolerance test, Resting metabolic rate, respiratory quotient, maximal oxygen uptake and metabolic biochemistry were also assessed. Overall Design The obese (BMI 30-36) male volunteers (age 32-42) were asked to refrain from vigorous physical activity 48h before presenting to the clinical investigation centre, and ate a weight-maintaining diet consisting of 35% fat, 16% protein, and 49% carbohydrates two days before the experiment. Muscle biopsies of Vastus Lateralis weighing 60–100 mg were obtained using the Bergstrom technique, cleaned and snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen. Resting metabolic rate, respiratory quotient and maximal oxygen uptake were assessed. The subjects were investigated at baseline and after 8 weeks of supervised aerobic exercise training program consisting of daily sessions of 45-60 min of endurance exercise, 5 days a week, at least 48-72h after the last acute exercise bout. Skeletal muscle biopsies were obtained at the beginning and at the end of the protocol. Transcriptome analysis compared 8 subjects before vs. after training using arrays using a common reference design (Cy5 dye was incorporated into all muscle RNA samples, while a reference RNA pool made of the mix of commercial human liver, adipose tissue and skeletal muscle RNA was labelled with Cy3 dye (Applied Biosystems/Ambion, Foster City, USA)( and whole genome 4x44k oligonucleotide arrays (Agilent Technologies).
