Low-frequency stimulation regulates metabolic gene expression in paralyzed muscle.
The altered metabolic state after a spinal cord injury compromises systemic glucose regulation. Skeletal muscle atrophies and transforms into fast, glycolytic, and insulin-resistant tissue. Osteoporosis is common after spinal cord injury and limits the ability to exercise paralyzed muscle. We used a novel approach to study the acute effect of two frequencies of stimulation (20 and 5 Hz) on musc...
متن کاملMyosin heavy chain isoform expression in rat smooth muscle development.
Smooth muscle myosin heavy chains (MHCs), the motor proteins that power smooth muscle contraction, are produced by alternative splicing from a single gene. The smooth muscle MHC gene is capable of producing four isoforms by utilizing alternative splice sites located at the regions encoding the carboxy terminus and the junction of the 25- and 50-kDa tryptic peptides. These four isoforms, SM1A, S...

متن کاملCo-Expression of SERCA Isoforms, Phospholamban and Sarcolipin in Human Skeletal Muscle Fibers
Sarcolipin (SLN) and phospholamban (PLN) inhibit the activity of sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPases (SERCAs) by reducing their apparent affinity for Ca(2+). A ternary complex between SLN, PLN, and SERCAs results in super-inhibition of SERCA activity. Analysis of skeletal muscle homogenate has limited our current understanding of whether SLN and PLN regulate SERCA1a, SERCA2a, or both in...
متن کاملRegulation of SERCA Ca2+ pump expression by cytoplasmic Ca2+ in vascular smooth muscle cells.
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) express three isoforms of the sarcoplasmic or endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase (SERCA) pump; SERCA2b predominates (91%), whereas SERCA2a (6%) and SERCA3 (3%) are present in much smaller amounts. Treatment with thapsigargin (Tg) or A-23187 increased the level of mRNA encoding SERCA2b four- to fivefold; SERCA3 increased about 10-fold, whereas SERCA2a was uncha...
