Differential impact of mitochondrial positioning on mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake and Ca(2+) spark suppression in skeletal muscle.

چکیده
Muscle contraction requires ATP and Ca(2+) and, thus, is under direct control of mitochondria and the sarcoplasmic reticulum. During postnatal skeletal muscle maturation, the mitochondrial network exhibits a shift from a longitudinal ("longitudinal mitochondria") to a mostly transversal orientation as a result of a progressive increase in mitochondrial association with Ca(2+) release units (CRUs) or triads ("triadic mitochondria"). To determine the physiological implications of this shift in mitochondrial disposition, we used confocal microscopy to monitor activity-dependent changes in myoplasmic (fluo 4) and mitochondrial (rhod 2) Ca(2+) in single flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) fibers from 1- to 4-mo-old mice. A robust and sustained Ca(2+) accumulation in triadic mitochondria was triggered by repetitive tetanic stimulation (500 ms, 100 Hz, every 2.5 s) in FDB fibers from 4-mo-old mice. Specifically, mitochondrial rhod 2 fluorescence increased 272 ± 39% after a single tetanus and 412 ± 45% after five tetani and decayed slowly over 10 min following the final tetanus. Similar results were observed in fibers expressing mitochondrial pericam, a mitochondrial-targeted ratiometric Ca(2+) indicator. Interestingly, sustained mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake following repetitive tetanic stimulation was similar for triadic and longitudinal mitochondria in FDB fibers from 1-mo-old mice, and both mitochondrial populations were found by electron microscopy to be continuous and structurally tethered to the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Conversely, the frequency of osmotic shock-induced Ca(2+) sparks per CRU density decreased threefold (from 3.6 ± 0.2 to 1.2 ± 0.1 events·CRU(-1)·min(-1)·100 μm(-2)) during postnatal development in direct linear correspondence (r(2) = 0.95) to an increase in mitochondrion-CRU pairing. Together, these results indicate that mitochondrion-CRU association promotes Ca(2+) spark suppression but does not significantly impact mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake.

Gene expression changes of single skeletal muscle fibers in response to modulation of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU)
The mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) gene codifies for the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM) channel responsible for mitochondrial Ca(2 +) uptake. Cytosolic Ca(2 +) transients are involved in sarcomere contraction through cycles of release and storage in the sarcoplasmic reticulum. In addition cytosolic Ca(2 +) regulates various signaling cascades that eventually lead to gene expression r...

AIMS The cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR) Ca(2+) release channel homotetramer harbours approximately 21 potentially redox-sensitive cysteine residues on each subunit and may act as a sensor for reactive oxygen species (ROS), linking ROS homeostasis to the regulation of Ca(2+) signalling. In cardiac myocytes, arrayed RyRs or Ca(2+) release units are packed in the close proximity of mitochondria,...

The mitochondrial calcium uniporter is a highly selective channel responsible for mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake. The mitochondrial calcium uniporter shapes cytosolic Ca(2+) signals, controls mitochondrial ATP production, and is involved in cell death. Here using direct patch-clamp recording from the inner mitochondrial membrane, we compare mitochondrial calcium uniporter activity in mouse heart, ...

Insulin is a major regulator of glucose metabolism, stimulating its mitochondrial oxidation in skeletal muscle cells. Mitochondria are dynamic organelles that can undergo structural remodeling in order to cope with these ever-changing metabolic demands. However, the process by which mitochondrial morphology impacts insulin signaling in the skeletal muscle cells remains uncertain. To address thi...
متن کاملRepeated static contractions increase mitochondrial vulnerability toward oxidative stress in human skeletal muscle.
Repeated static contractions (RSC) induce large fluctuations in tissue oxygen tension and increase the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Ten male subjects performed five bouts of static knee extension with 10-...
