Expression profiling following local muscle inactivity in humans provides new perspective on diabetes-related genes.

Abstract：

:Physical activity enhances muscle mitochondrial gene expression, while inactivity and mitochondrial dysfunction are both risk factors for developing diabetes. Defective activation of the transcriptional coactivator PGC-1alpha may contribute to the gene expression pattern observed in diabetic and insulin-resistant skeletal muscle. We proposed that greater insight into the mitochondrial component of skeletal muscle "diabetes" would be possible if the clinical transcriptome data were contrasted with local muscle inactivity-induced modulation of mitochondrial genes in otherwise healthy subjects. We studied PPARGC1A (PGC-1alpha), PPARGC1B (PGC-1beta), NRF1, and a variety of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes critical for oxidative phosphorylation in soleus muscle biopsies obtained from six healthy men and women before and after 5 weeks of local muscle inactivity. Muscle inactivity resulted in a coordinated down-regulation of PGC-1alpha and genes involved with mitochondrial metabolism, including muscle substrate delivery genes. Decreased expression of the mtDNA helicase Twinkle was related to the decline in mitochondrial RNA polymerase (r = 0.83, p < 0.04), suggesting that mtDNA transcription and replication are coregulated in human muscle tissue. In contrast to the situation in diabetes, PGC-1beta expression was not significantly altered, while NRF1 expression was actually up-regulated following muscle inactivity. We can conclude that reduced PGC-1alpha expression described in Type 2 diabetes may be partly explained by muscle inactivity. Further, although diabetes patients are typically inactive, our analysis indicates that local muscle inactivity may not be expected to contribute to the decreased NRF1 and PGC-1beta expression noted in insulin-resistant and Type 2 diabetes patients, suggesting these changes may be more disease specific.
