Cyclosporin A preferentially attenuates skeletal slow-twitch muscle regeneration.
Calcineurin, a Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent phosphatase, is associated with muscle regeneration via NFATc1/GATA2-dependent pathways. However, it is not clear whether calcineurin preferentially affects the regeneration of slow- or fast-twitch muscles. We investigated the effect of a calcineurin inhibitor, cyclosporin A (CsA), on the morphology and fiber diameter of regenerating slow- and fast-twitc...
متن کاملAngiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition attenuates myonuclear addition in overloaded slow-twitch skeletal muscle.
Because optimal overload-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy requires ANG II, we aimed to determine the effects of blocking ANG II production [via angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition] on potential mediators of hypertrophy in overloaded skeletal muscle, namely, myonuclear addition and fibroblast content. In a 2 x 2 design, adult (200-225 g) female Sprague-Dawley rats were placed into ...
متن کاملNerve Influence on Rat Fast-Twitch Skeletal Muscle Regeneration
The degeneration-regeneration process induced by bupivacaine injection has been studied in rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscle in the presence or absence of nerve, the presence of tetrodotoxin (TTX)-induced block of nerve impulse conduction, and the presence of vinblastine-induced block of nerve axoplasmic flow associated to TTX block. Seven and 14 days after bupivacaine injection, myosi...
متن کاملCharacterization of RyR1-slow, a ryanodine receptor specific to slow-twitch skeletal muscle.
Two distinct skeletal muscle ryanodine receptors (RyR1s) are expressed in a fiber type-specific manner in fish skeletal muscle (11). In this study, we compare [(3)H]ryanodine binding and single channel activity of RyR1-slow from fish slow-twitch skeletal muscle with RyR1-fast and RyR3 isolated from fast-twitch skeletal muscle. Scatchard plots indicate that RyR1-slow has a lower affinity for [(3...
متن کاملDistinct patterns of MMP-9 and MMP-2 activity in slow and fast twitch skeletal muscle regeneration in vivo.
Skeletal muscles exhibit great plasticity and an ability to reconstruct in response to injury. However, the repair process is often inefficient and hindered by the development of fibrosis. We explored the possibility that during muscle repair, the different regeneration ability of the fast (extensor digitorum longus; EDL) and slow twitch (Soleus) muscles depends on the differential expression o...
