ABSTRACT Background Recent studies provide strong evidence for a key role of skeletal muscle pathophysiology in myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). In 2021 review article on the ME/CFS, we postulated that hypoperfusion and ischemia can result excessive sodium calcium overload muscles ME/CFS patients to cause mitochondrial damage.

Skeletal muscle (SKM) has crucial roles in locomotor activity and posture within the body also functions have been recognized as an actively secretory organ. Numerous bioactive molecules are secreted by SKM transported extracellular vesicles (EVs), a novel class of mediators communication between cells organs that contain various types cargo including lipids, proteins nucleic acids. SKM-derived EVs (SKM-EVs) intercellular communicators with significant crosstalk other organs. In this review, we briefly describe biological characteristics, composition, uptake mechanisms EVs, particularly exosomes, comprehensively summarize regulatory effects SKM-EVs on function of, which include myogenesis, repair regeneration, well metabolic regulation. Furthermore, explore impact SKM- bone, cardiovascular system, adipose tissue, nervous system. As emerging evidence suggests involved development regulation type 2 diabetes (T2D), systemic inflammation, chronic diseases, highlight potential therapeutic targets diagnostic biomarkers, emphasizing need for further research to elucidate complex underlying physiological pathological contexts.

In healthy individuals, physical exercise improves cardiovascular health and muscle strength, alleviates fatigue reduces the risk of chronic diseases. Although is suggested as a lifestyle intervention to manage various illnesses, it negatively affects people with myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic syndrome (ME/CFS), who suffer from intolerance. We hypothesized that altered extracellular vesicle (EV) signalling in ME/CFS patients after an challenge may contribute their prolonged exacerbated negative response exertion (post-exertional malaise). EVs were isolated by size exclusion chromatography plasma 18 female 17 age- BMI-matched sedentary controls at three time points: before, 15 min, 24 h maximal cardiopulmonary test. characterized using nanoparticle tracking analysis protein cargo was quantified Tandem Mass Tag-based (TMT) proteomics. The results show EV proteome differently than individuals changes proteins are strongly correlated symptom severity ME/CFS. Differentially abundant versus involved many pathways systems, including coagulation processes, contraction (both smooth skeletal muscle), cytoskeletal proteins, immune system brain signalling.

Abstract The benefits of regular physical exercise on cancer prevention, as well reducing fatigue, treatment side effects and recurrence, improving quality life overall survival patients, are increasingly recognised. Initial studies showed that the concentration extracellular vesicles (EVs) increases during activity EVs carry biologically active cargo. These released by blood cells, skeletal muscle other organs involved in exercise, thus suggesting may mediate tissue crosstalk exercise. This possibility triggered a great interest study roles systemic adaptation to their potential applications prevention various diseases, including cancer. review presents exploring molecular cargo Furthermore, we discuss putative stimuli trigger EV release from cell types, biological functions impact exercise‐induced development progression. Understanding interplay between EVs, biology offer insights into novel therapeutic strategies preventive measures for

Background Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) is a debilitating condition characterized by fatigue, orthostatic intolerance (OI), post-exertional malaise (PEM) and unrefreshing sleep. Our previous work has shown that modulating the autonomic nervous system can alleviate symptoms of Long COVID, which shares striking similarities with ME/CFS.

We proposed that cerebrospinal fluid would provide objective evidence for disrupted brain metabolism in myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndroome (ME/CFS). The concept of postexertional malaise (PEM) with disabling symptom exacerbation after limited exertion does not respond to rest is a diagnostic criterion ME/CFS. submaximal exercise provocation cause additional metabolic perturbations. metabolomic and lipidomic constituents from separate nonexercise postexercise cohorts ME/CFS sedentary control subjects were contrasted using targeted mass spectrometry (Biocrates) frequentist multivariate general linear regression analysis diagnosis, exercise, gender, age body index as independent variables. diagnosis was associated elevated serine but reduced 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5MTHF). One carbon pathways disrupted. Methylation glycine led sarcosine further methylation dimethylglycine choline decreased. Creatine purine intermediates elevated.
