Microtubule-mediated GLUT4 trafficking is disrupted in insulin-resistant skeletal muscle

Martinus Gijs, Raphaël Etienne Jean Trouillon, Martin Rainer Wohlwend

Microtubules serve as tracks for long-range intracellular trafficking of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4), but the role of this process in skeletal muscle and insulin resistance is unclear. Here, we used fixed and live-cell imaging to study microtubule-based ...

A Tead1-Apelin axis directs paracrine communication from myogenic to endothelial cells in skeletal muscle

Bart Deplancke, Julie Marie Russeil, Sonia Karaz, Maria Deak, Umji Lee, Benjamin D. Cosgrove

Apelin (Apln) is a myokine that regulates skeletal muscle plasticity and meta-bolism and declines during aging. Through a yeast one-hybrid transcription factor binding screen, we identified the TEA domain transcription factor 1 (Tead1) as a novel regulator ...

Acute RyR1 Ca2+ leak enhances NADH-linked mitochondrial respiratory capacity

Johan Auwerx, Umberto De Marchi

Sustained ryanodine receptor (RyR) Ca2+ leak is associated with pathological conditions such as heart failure or skeletal muscle weakness. We report that a single session of sprint interval training (SIT), but not of moderate intensity continuous training ...

NATURE PORTFOLIO2021

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), caused by the mutation of dystrophin gene, is an X-linked disorder that affects 1 in 3500 males, leading to progressive muscle degeneration and eventually resulting in premature death. Increasing evidence indicates that D ...

The gut microbiota influences skeletal muscle mass and function in mice

Johan Auwerx, Hongbo Zhang, Walter Wahli

The functional interactions between the gut microbiota and the host are important for host physiology, homeostasis, and sustained health. We compared the skeletal muscle of germ-free mice that lacked a gut microbiota to the skeletal muscle of pathogen-free ...

AMER ASSOC ADVANCEMENT SCIENCE2019

Aging is accompanied by a gradual decline in both muscle mass and strength over time, which can eventually lead to pathologies, such as frailty and sarcopenia. While these two conditions are well characterized, further investigation of the early biological ...

Mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of multiple metabolic complications. Physical activity is known to increase mitochondrial content in skeletal muscle, counteracting age-related decline in muscle function and protecting against metabolic and cardiova ...

Lipidomics reveals diurnal lipid oscillations in human skeletal muscle persisting in cellular myotubes cultured in vitro

Jonathan Paz Montoya, Marc Moniatte, Frédéric Bruno Martin Gachon, Howard Riezman, Benjamin Dieter Weger

Circadian clocks play an important role in lipid homeostasis, with impact on various metabolic diseases. Due to the central role of skeletal muscle in whole-body metabolism, we aimed at studying muscle lipid profiles in a temporal manner. Moreover, it has ...

An unbiased silencing screen in muscle cells identifies miR-320a, miR-150, miR-196b, and miR-34c as regulators of skeletal muscle mitochondria! metabolism

Johan Auwerx, Pénélope Andreux, Xu Wang

Objective: Strategies improving skeletal muscle mitochondrial capacity are commonly paralleled by improvements in (metabolic) health. We and others previously identified microRNAs regulating mitochondrial oxidative capacity, but data in skeletal muscle are ...
