COX-2 inhibitor reduces skeletal muscle hypertrophy in mice.
Anti-inflammatory strategies are often used to reduce muscle pain and soreness that can result from high-intensity muscular activity. However, studies indicate that components of the acute inflammatory response may be required for muscle repair and growth. The hypothesis of this study was that cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 activity is required for compensatory hypertrophy of skeletal muscle. We used t...
متن کاملSelective COX-2 inhibitor reduces bone healing in bone defects.
Anti-inflammatory agents have been reported to regulate bone healing. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor (meloxicam) on bone healing in calvarial defects in rats. Thirty-six adult male Wistar rats were included. After anesthesia, a linear incision was made through the skin of the scalp, a full-thickness flap was reflected and a 4 mm rou...
متن کاملBeta2-integrins contribute to skeletal muscle hypertrophy in mice.
We tested the contribution of beta(2)-integrins, which are important for normal function of neutrophils and macrophages, to skeletal muscle hypertrophy after mechanical loading. Using the synergist ablation model of hypertrophy and mice deficient in the common beta-subunit of beta(2)-integrins (CD18(-/-)), we found that overloaded muscles of wild-type mice had greater myofiber size, dry muscle ...
متن کاملThe proteasome inhibitor MG132 reduces immobilization-induced skeletal muscle atrophy in mice
BACKGROUND Skeletal muscle atrophy is a serious concern for the rehabilitation of patients afflicted by prolonged limb restriction. This debilitating condition is associated with a marked activation of NFκB activity. The ubiquitin-proteasome pathway degrades the NFκB inhibitor IκBα, enabling NFκB to translocate to the nucleus and bind to the target genes that promote muscle atrophy. Although se...
متن کاملTime course of COX-1 and COX-2 expression during ischemia-reperfusion in rat skeletal muscle.
The aim of this study was to assess cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and COX-2 expression in skeletal muscle after an ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to unilateral hindlimb ischemia for 2 h and then euthanized after 0, 1, 2, 4, 6, 10, 24, and 72 h of reperfusion. The COX protein and mRNA were assessed in control and injured gastrocnemius muscle. Muscle damage was indir...
