Skeletal muscles are predominantly composed of long, multinucleated muscle fibers, classified according to their metabolic and contractile phenotype. The determination fiber types is influenced by various factors (e.g., innervation, hormones, physical demand). Our laboratory others showed that resolvins, lipid mediators derived from omega-3 fatty acids, promote regeneration function after an injury or in models muscular dystrophies; however, the effect resolvins on phenotype remains unknown. Here, we investigated impact during myogenesis. Transcriptomics analysis single-nuclei RNAseq data sets revealed enzymes responsible for bioactive lipids biosynthesis differentially expressed slow fibers versus fast fibers. Lipidomics slow-twitch (soleus) fast-twitch (tibialis anterior) levels arachidonic acid similar between groups, but alpha-linolenic acid, linoleic eicosapentaenoic docosahexaenoic enriched muscle. Screening different vitro resolvin-D2 enhances formation myotubes expressing myosin heavy chain isoform. In vivo, administration strength, increases myofiber size, affects typing injured not uninjured muscles. Resolvin-D2 promoted transition toward dominant regenerating (i.e., type I soleus IIB tibialis anterior muscle), suggesting its participation conjunction with other factors. Overall, these findings identified new roles regulation typing, which could have therapeutic applicability injuries dystrophies.

Skeletal muscle plasticity enables an enormous potential to adapt various internal and external stimuli perturbations. Most notably, changes in contractile activity evoke a massive remodeling of biochemical, metabolic force-generating properties. In recent years, large number signals, sensors, regulators effectors have been implicated these adaptive processes. Nevertheless, our understanding the molecular underpinnings training adaptation remains rudimentary. Specifically, mechanisms that underlie signal integration, output coordination, functional redundancy other complex traits are unknown. fact, it is even unclear how stimulus-dependent specification brought about endurance or resistance exercise. this review, we will provide overview on events describe acute perturbations single exercise bouts. Furthermore, insights into principles long-term adaptation.

Human studies examining the cellular mechanisms behind sarcopenia, or age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function, have produced inconsistent results. A systematic review meta-analysis were performed to determine aging effects on protein expression, size, distribution fibers with various myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoforms. Study eligibility included MyHC comparisons between young (18–49 yr) older (≥60 adults, 27 identified. Relative expression was higher age for slow-contracting I fibers, correspondingly lower fast-contracting II IIA values. Fiber sizes similar I, but smaller IIA. distributions age. When separated by sex, few that examined females showed atrophy age, no change in expression. Additional analyses measurement technique, physical activity, biopsies provided important insights. In summary, lead more slow-contracting, force-producing isoform male muscles, which helps explain their whole force, velocity, power. Exercise pharmacological interventions shift toward faster isoforms and/or increase fiber size should decrease prevalence sarcopenia. Our findings also indicate future need include focus solely females, measure IIX separately, examine type distribution, sample additional muscles vastus lateralis (VL), incorporate an objective activity.

Abstract Skeletal muscle is an inherently heterogenous tissue comprised primarily of myofibers, which are historically classified into three distinct fiber types in humans: one “slow” (type 1) and two “fast” 2A type 2X), delineated by the expression myosin heavy chain isoforms (MYHs). However, heterogeneity between within traditional remains underexplored. Indeed, whether MYHs main classifiers skeletal fibers has not been examined unbiased manner. Through development application novel transcriptomic proteomic workflows, applied to 1050 1038 single from human vastus lateralis , respectively, we show that only principal drivers heterogeneity. Instead, metabolic, ribosomal, cell junction proteins a source multi-dimensional variation fibers. Furthermore, whilst slow fast clusters can be identified, described their contractile metabolic profiles, our data suggests 2X phenotypically other at omics level. Moreover, MYH-based classifications do adequately describe phenotype most common genetic diseases, nemaline myopathy, with shifting towards non-oxidative independently type. We also characterize features fibers, including identifying several type-specific polypeptides, termed microproteins, encoded transcripts annotated as non-coding RNA. Overall, indicates sources beyond isoforms.
