β-Hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate (HMB) prevents sepsis-induced diaphragm dysfunction in mice

Abstract: Infections induce severe respiratory muscle weakness. Currently there are no treatments for this important clinical problem. We tested the hypothesis that β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate (HMB) would prevent sepsis-induced diaphragm weakness. Four groups of adult male mice were studied: controls (saline-injected), sepsis (intraperitoneal lipopolysaccharide), sepsis+HMB (injected intravenously), and HMB. Diaphragm force generation and indices of caspase 3, calpain, 20S proteasomal subunit, and double-stranded RNA-dep… Show more

“…Beneficial effects of HMB in human subjects have been reported in several muscledeconditioning conditions characterized by a loss of muscle mass and a decrease in muscle strength and physical performance, for example, cancer cachexia (May et al, 2002), AIDS (Clark et al, 2000), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (Hsieh et al, 2006) and aging (Baier et al, 2009;Deutz et al, 2013;Flakoll et al, 2004;Hsieh et al, 2010;May et al, 2002;Stout et al, 2013;Vukovich et al, 2001). Efficiency of HMB in various muscle-deconditioning conditions in rodents and cell lines has also been reported, e.g., experimental models of cachexia (Aversa et al, 2011;Caperuto et al, 2007;Eley et al, 2007;Mirza et al, 2014b;Nunes et al, 2008;Smith et al, 2005), glucocorticoid treatments (Aversa et al, 2012;Baptista et al, 2013;Giron et al, 2015;Nunes et al, 2013), and experimental models of sepsis and endotoxemia (Eley et al, 2008a;Kovarik et al, 2010;Supinski and Callahan, 2014) in response to muscle-wasting treatments such as TNF-α and angiotensin II (Eley et al, 2008a, b), a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (Payne et al, 2006), and hypokinesia and hypodynamia models (HU or immobilization) (Alway et al, 2013;Baptista et al, 2013;Hao et al, 2011;Mirza et al, 2014b). In animals, effects of HMB during aging have been studied only in combination with other muscle-deconditioning circumstances (Alway et al, 2013;Hao et al, 2011), and specific studies are needed.…”

“…Diaphragmatic weakness leading to acute respiratory failure is associated with increased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines resulting from a systemic inflammatory response syndrome [ 14 , 15 , 25 ]. Cytokine levels in amniotic fluid and fetal cord blood increase in response to chorioamnionitis in both clinical and animal studies [ 1 , 21 , 26 , 27 ].…”

“…An increase of caspase-3 activity in different body sites in septic animal models has been found [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18]. Besides, higher caspase-3 activity has been found in lymphocytes of septic patients compared to healthy controls [19][20][21], in spleen samples of septic patients (post mortem obtained) comparted to nonseptic patients (obtained from emergent splenectomy due to bleeding) [22], and in plasma of septic patients compared to non-septic patients [23].…”
