Angiotensin (1-7) Decreases Myostatin-Induced NF-κB Signaling and Skeletal Muscle Atrophy

Abstract: Myostatin is a myokine that regulates muscle function and mass, producing muscle atrophy. Myostatin induces the degradation of myofibrillar proteins, such as myosin heavy chain or troponin. The main pathway that mediates protein degradation during muscle atrophy is the ubiquitin proteasome system, by increasing the expression of atrogin-1 and MuRF-1. In addition, myostatin activates the NF-κB signaling pathway. Renin-angiotensin system (RAS) also regulates muscle mass. Angiotensin (1-7) (Ang-(1-7)) has anti-at… Show more

“…This finding corroborates another study showing that p38MAPK signaling is a regulator of FGF23, in part through pro-inflammatory transcription factor complex NFκB [10]. Importantly, NFκB is a downstream target of myostatin [1] and itself is an important mediator of the stimulatory effect of inflammation and pro-inflammatory cytokines on FGF23 synthesis [22,47]. NFκB is effective through inducing SOCE [47].…”

“…There are a number of studies showing that Mstn is a ROS-inducing myokine in skeletal muscles. Mstn treatment resulted in a drastic increase of intracellular ROS content of C2C12 myotubes [ 152 ]. This ROS generation is initiated via the MAPKs (p38 and ERK) signaling pathway, which ultimately triggered oxidative stress-dependent muscle wasting [ 153 ].…”

“…Thirty to eighty micrograms of proteins from TA muscles were used for Western blot analyses. The samples were separated by SDS-PAGE, transferred to PVDF membranes, and subjected to immunoblotting as previously described [56]. The primary antibodies used were mouse anti-MHC (1:1000 MF-20; Developmental Studies, Hybridoma Bank, University of Iowa, Iowa, IA, USA), mouse anti-troponin I (1:1000; Cell Signaling, Danvers, MA, USA), myosin type IIb (1:1000, BF-F3; Developmental Studies, Hybridoma Bank, University of Iowa, Iowa, IA, USA), rabbit anti-atrogin-1 (1:500, ECM Biosciences, Versailles, KY, USA), rabbit anti-MuRF-1 (1:500, ECM Biosciences, Versailles, KY, USA), goat anti-4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) (1:1000; Merck, Temecula, CA, USA), mouse anti-ubiquitin (1:5000, Santa Cruz, Dallas, TX, USA), and rabbit anti-β-actin (1:2000, Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA).…”

“…Total RNA was extracted from TA muscles using Chomczynski's solution, and the purified RNA was transcribed into cDNA for standard methods, as we have previously described [56]. The cDNA obtained from reverse transcription was analyzed to evaluate the TGR5 gene expression (forward: CAGGAGGCCATAAACTTCCA; reverse: GTCAGCTCCCTGTTCTTTGC) with SyBR Green using 18S (forward: GTAACCCGTTGAACCCCATT; reverse: CCATCCAATCGGTAGTAGCG) as a housekeeping gene.…”
