Hypoactivity Affects IGF-1 Level and PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway in Cerebral Structures Implied in Motor Control

Abstract: A chronic reduction in neuromuscular activity through prolonged body immobilization in human alters motor task performance through a combination of peripheral and central factors. Studies performed in a rat model of sensorimotor restriction have shown functional and biochemical changes in sensorimotor cortex. However, the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Interest was turned towards a possible implication of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1), a growth factor known to mediate neuronal excitability and… Show more

“…Sample sizes were determined based on a power analysis (power = 0.8, a = 0.05) using effect sizes observed in previous study (Mysoet et al 2014) as well as our pilot study. All quantitative results were presented as box-plot (box: first and third quartiles and median; whiskers: minimum and maximum).…”

“…An alternative sensory deprivation model is that of hindlimb unloading (HU). In adult rats, 14 days of HU decreases IGF1 levels in the somatosensory cortex (Mysoet et al, 2014 ) and shrinks the somatotopic representation of the hindpaw. Administration of IGF1 prevents this change in somatotopic representation (Papadakis et al, 1996 ; Mysoet et al, 2015 ).…”

“…Our previous experience with HU mice, which were used for the present and other studies (Brocca et al, 2010 ; Desaphy et al, 2010 ; Maffei et al, 2014 ; Cannavino et al, 2015 ), indicates that HU can produced significant stress in about 6% of cases and during the first 3 days of suspension (Kawano et al, 1994 ; Morey-Holton and Globus, 2002 ; Basco et al, 2010 ; Gaignier et al, 2014 ; Mysoet et al, 2014 ), after which the levels of stress, serum, and urine corticosterone measured, returned to the normal ones of the non-suspended animals. Indeed, it had already been demonstrated (Kawano et al, 1994 ) that in 5-week-old rats corticosterone urinary excretion in the control group was 87.4 ± 12.8 ng/day and did not change throughout the unloading time.…”
