Zusammenfassung: | Exercise therapy can improve muscle mass, strengthen muscle and cardiorespiratory function, and may be an excellent adjunctive treatment option for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
This article investigates the effects of 10 weeks of treadmill training on skeletal muscle in control and mdx mice. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was used to detect the morphometry of skeletal muscle; the grip strength test, suspension test, and rotarod test were used to detect limb muscle strength of mice, and Aurora Scientific Instruments were used to detect in vivo Muscle Stimulation Measuring Maximum Force of pre-fatigue and post-fatigue. The expression levels of myogenic proteins, ubiquitination markers, autophagy pathway proteins, and the proportion of different muscle fiber types were detected.
The experimental results show that running exercise can significantly improve the muscle mass of mdx mice, promote muscle strength, endurance, and anti-fatigue ability, reverse the pathological state of skeletal muscle destruction in mdx mice, and promote muscle regeneration. WB experiments showed that running inhibited the ubiquitination and degradation of muscle protein in mdx mice, inhibited AKT activation, decreased phosphorylated FoxO1 and FoxO3a, and restored the suppressed autophagic flux. Running enhances muscle strength and endurance by comprehensively promoting the expression of Myh1/2/4/7 fast and slow muscle fibers in mdx mice.
Running can inhibit the degradation of muscle protein in mdx mice, and promote the reuse and accumulation of proteins, thereby slowing down muscle loss. Running improves skeletal muscle mass by activating autophagic flux and inhibiting ubiquitination degradation in mdx mice. |
