Increased catalase expression improves muscle function in mdx mice.
It has been well established that oxidative stress contributes to pathology associated with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). I hypothesized that overexpression of the antioxidant enzyme catalase would improve muscle function in the mdx mouse, the mouse model of DMD. To test this hypothesis, neonatal mdx mice were injected with a recombinant adeno-associated virus driving the catalase transgen...
متن کاملExercise training improves liver steatosis in mice
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is rapidly turning into the most common liver disorder worldwide. One of the strategies that has been shown to effectively improve NAFLD is regular exercise, which seems to lower steatosis partly independent of weight loss. However, limited data are available about the mechanisms involved. The aim of the present study was to identify the mech...
متن کاملLoss of cIAP1 attenuates soleus muscle pathology and improves diaphragm function in mdx mice.
The cellular inhibitor of apoptosis 1 (cIAP1) protein is an essential regulator of canonical and noncanonical nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) signaling pathways. NF-κB signaling is known to play important roles in myogenesis and degenerative muscle disorders such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), but the involvement of cIAP1 in muscle disease has not been studied directly. Here, we asked whether ...
متن کاملSarcolemmal targeting of nNOSμ improves contractile function of mdx muscle.
Nitric oxide (NO) is a key regulator of skeletal muscle function and metabolism, including vasoregulation, mitochondrial function, glucose uptake, fatigue and excitation-contraction coupling. The main generator of NO in skeletal muscle is the muscle-specific form of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOSμ) produced by the NOS1 gene. Skeletal muscle nNOSμ is predominantly localized at the sarcolem...
متن کاملExercise training improves vascular mitochondrial function.
Exercise training is recognized to improve cardiac and skeletal muscle mitochondrial respiratory capacity; however, the impact of chronic exercise on vascular mitochondrial respiratory function is unknown. We hypothesized that exercise training concomitantly increases both vascular mitochondrial respiratory capacity and vascular function. Arteries from both sedentary (SED) and swim-trained (EX,...
