- The aim of this study was to examine the effect of ambient hypoxia on the main intracellular pathways involved in muscle regeneration. Left soleus muscles of female rats were degenerated by notexin injection before exposure to either normoxia (N) or ambient hypoxia (H) (10% O2) during 3, 7, 14 and 28 days (d). The expected muscle-mass loss of injured muscles was higher in H than in N rats at d3 and d7, whereas the recovery of muscle mass was similar in H and N rats at d28. The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) activity, assessed from both eIF-4E binding protein (4E-BP1) and P70S6K phosphorylation, was markedly increased during the early period of regeneration, but remained two-fold lower in H than in N groups at d3. The hypoxia-induced alteration of mTOR activity, independently of Akt, was associated with an activation of AMP-activated kinase (AMPK) at d3. In contrast, REDD1, another negative regulator of mTOR, was markedly activated by H at d14 and d28 in intact muscles, but was blunted during the first days of regeneration (d3–7), independently of H. Taken together, we show for the first time, that hypoxia enhances the muscle-mass loss after extensive injury. This could be due to a specific impairment of mTOR activation during muscle regeneration, independently of Akt, at least partly related to AMPK activation, without detectable effect of REDD1.

- Hypoxia induces a loss of skeletal muscle mass, but the signaling pathways and molecular mechanisms involved remain poorly understood. We hypothesized that hypoxia could impair skeletal muscle hypertrophy induced by functional overload (Ov). To test this hypothesis, plantaris muscles were overloaded during 5, 12, and 56 days in female rats exposed to hypobaric hypoxia (5,500 m), and then, we examined the responses of specific signaling pathways involved in protein synthesis (Akt/mTOR) and breakdown (atrogenes). Hypoxia minimized the Ov-induced hypertrophy at days 5 and 12 but did not affect the hypertrophic response measured at day 56. Hypoxia early reduced the phosphorylation levels of mTOR and its downstream targets P70(S6K) and rpS6, but it did not affect the phosphorylation levels of Akt and 4E-BP1, in Ov muscles. The role played by specific inhibitors of mTOR, such as AMPK and hypoxia-induced factors (i.e., REDD1 and BNIP-3) was studied. REDD1 protein levels were reduced by overload and were not affected by hypoxia in Ov muscles, whereas AMPK was not activated by hypoxia. Although hypoxia significantly increased BNIP-3 mRNA levels at day 5, protein levels remained unaffected. The mRNA levels of the two atrogenes MURF1 and MAFbx were early increased by hypoxia in Ov muscles. In conclusion, hypoxia induced a transient alteration of muscle growth in this hypertrophic model, at least partly due to a specific impairment of the mTOR/P70(S6K) pathway, independently of Akt, by an undefined mechanism, and increased transcript levels for MURF1 and MAFbx that could contribute to stimulate the proteasomal proteolysis.

- Hypoxia induces a loss of skeletal muscle mass and alters myogenesis in vitro, but whether it affects muscle regeneration in vivo following injury remains to be elucidated. We hypothesized that hypoxia would impair the recovery of muscle mass during regeneration. To test this hypothesis, the soleus muscle of female rats was injured by notexin and allowed to recover for 3, 7, 14, and 28 days under normoxia or hypobaric hypoxia (5,500 m) conditions. Hypoxia impaired the formation and growth of new myofibers and enhanced the loss of muscle mass during the first 7 days of regeneration, but did not affect the final recovery of muscle mass at 28 days. The impaired regeneration under hypoxic conditions was associated with a blunted activation of mechanical target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling as assessed by p70(S6K) and 4E-BP1 phosphorylation that was independent of Akt activation. The decrease in mTOR activity with hypoxia was consistent with the increase in AMP-activated protein kinase activity, but not related to the change in regulated in development and DNA response 1 protein content. Hypoxia increased the mRNA levels of the atrogene muscle ring finger-1 after 7 days of regeneration, though muscle atrophy F box transcript levels remained unchanged. The increase in MyoD and myogenin mRNA expression with regeneration was attenuated at 7 days with hypoxia. In conclusion, our results support the notion that the enhanced loss of muscle mass observed after 1 week of regeneration under hypoxic conditions could mainly result from the impaired formation and growth of new fibers resulting from a reduction in protein synthesis and satellite cell activity.

- Aim: To determine whether hypoxia influences the phenotypic adaptation of skeletal muscle induced by mechanical overload.Methods: Plantaris muscles of female rats were submitted to mechanical overload following synergist ablation. After 3 days of overload, rats were exposed to either hypobaric hypoxia (equivalent to 5500 m) or normoxia. Muscles were collected after 5, 12 and 56 days of overload (i.e. after 3, 9 and 53 days of hypoxia). We determined the myosin heavy chain (MHC) distribution, mRNA levels of myocyte-enriched calcineurin-integrating protein 1 (MCIP1) to indirectly assess calcineurin activity, the changes in oxidative capacity from the activities of citrate synthase (CS) and cytochrome c oxidase (COX), and the expression of regulators involved in mitochondrial biogenesis (Pgc-1α, NRF1 and Tfam) and degradation (BNIP-3).Results: Hypoxia did not alter the fast-to-slow MHC shift and the increase in calcineurin activity induced by overload; it only transiently slowed down the overload-induced transition in MHC isoforms. Hypoxia similarly decreased CS and COX activities in overloaded and control muscles. Nuclear respiratory factor 1 (NRF1) and transcription factor A (Tfam) mRNA and BNIP-3 protein were not influenced by hypoxia in overloaded muscles, whereas Pgc-1α mRNA and protein contents did not correlate with changes in oxidative capacity.Conclusion: Hypoxia is not a critical stimulus to modulate the fast-to-slow MHC transition associated with overload. Thus, the impairment of the fast-to-slow fibre shift often observed during post-natal development in hypoxia could be explained by the lower voluntary locomotor activity associated with hypoxia. Hypoxia alters mitochondrial oxidative capacity, but this adaptive response is similar in overloaded and control muscles.

- Hypoxia impairs the muscle fibre-type shift from fast-to-slow during post-natal development; however, this adaptation could be a consequence of the reduced voluntary physical activity associated with hypoxia exposure rather than the result of hypoxia per se. Moreover, muscle oxidative capacity could be reduced in hypoxia, particularly when hypoxia is combined with additional stress. Here, we used a model of muscle regeneration to mimic the fast-to-slow fibre-type conversion observed during post-natal development. We hypothesised that hypoxia would impair the recovery of the myosin heavy chain (MHC) profile and oxidative capacity during muscle regeneration. To test this hypothesis, the soleus muscle of female rats was injured by notexin and allowed to recover for 3, 7, 14 and 28 days under normoxia or hypobaric hypoxia (5,500 m altitude) conditions. Ambient hypoxia did not impair the recovery of the slow MHC profile during muscle regeneration. However, hypoxia moderately decreased the oxidative capacity (assessed from the activity of citrate synthase) of intact muscle and delayed its recovery in regenerated muscle. Hypoxia transiently increased in both regenerated and intact muscles the content of phosphorylated AMPK and Pgc-1α mRNA, two regulators involved in mitochondrial biogenesis, while it transiently increased in intact muscle the mRNA level of the mitophagic factor BNIP3. In conclusion, hypoxia does not act to impair the fast-to-slow MHC isoform transition during regeneration. Hypoxia alters the oxidative capacity of intact muscle and delays its recovery in regenerated muscle; however, this adaptation to hypoxia was independent of the studied regulators of mitochondrial turn-over.
