This age-related decline in muscle mass is accompanied by a loss of strength and a decline of physical performance, named Dynapenia. Both events decrease the autonomy and the quality of life of the individuals aïŹ€ecting about 40-50% of people over the age of 80. Nonetheless, inter-individual diïŹ€erences in prevalence of sarcopenia/dynapenia exist, as some remain ïŹt and strong, whereas other become frail and weak when they get old. Until now, no study has examined the inter-individual variations of muscle tissue and its biomarkers. At the ïŹber level, age-related variations in skeletal muscle mass induce typological and capillarization modiïŹcations. Furthermore, the loss of muscle mass with aging could be associated with serious metabolic consequences or accumulation of intramyocellular lipid droplets. Immunohistochemical studies were performed with muscle biopsies from 30 healthy elderly men, aged 80 ±0.5 years selected from the PROgnostic indicator of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (PROOF) cohort, classiïŹed into three groups. On the basis of appendicular mass variation between two DEXA at mean interval of seven years, some people lose more muscle mass, named ”Lost”, others remain ”Stable”, and others ”Gain” muscle mass. The loss of skeletal muscle mass was associated with a reduction in Type-I ïŹbers surface area (-24.6%), accompanied by a proportional loss of capillaries number around each ïŹber-type (CAF) and capillary-to-ïŹber perimeter exchange index (CFPE) (-15%, -10% respectively), compared to ”Stable” and ”Gain” groups. Also subjects from the ”Lost” group exhibited signiïŹcant accumulation of intramyocellular lipid droplets in Type-I ïŹbers compared to the ”Gain” (+23%). Lastly, this decline in muscle mass induced a remodeling of the extracellular matrix with an increase in the endomysium area (+12.2% vs Gain).If usually, it is recognized that chronological aging mainly aïŹ€ects Type-II motor units, our results suggest that biological aging is characterized by impairment of Type-I muscle ïŹbers, their microvascular environment and oxidative metabolism for elderly men on their eighties

Goldberg - Ron Hay - Germana Meroni - Marco Sandri - Daniel Taillandier - Keiji Tanaka - Simon S. WingThe Ubiquitin Proteasome System (UPS) is the major actor of muscle wasting during various physio-pathological situations. In the past 15 years, increasing data have depicted a picture, although incomplete, of the mechanisms responsible for in myofibrillar protein degradation, from the discovery of muscle-specific E3 ligases to the identification of the signaling pathways involved. The targeting specificity of the UPS relies on the capacity of the system to first recognize and then label the proteins to be degraded with a polyubiquitin (polyUb) chain. It is fairly assumed that the recognition step is accomplished by the numerous E3 ligases present in mammalian cells. The E3 ligase MuRF1 is so far the only enzyme known to direct different contractile proteins for degradation, i.e. troponin I, myosins and actin. However, like most E3s, MuRF1 does not possess any catalytic activity and depends on the activity of cognate E2 enzymes. The latter may be more than simple Ub-providers for E3s and they are probably important actors in the ubiquitination machinery. Surprisingly, while most efforts were put on E3s, the exact role of E2s in muscle protein degradation is still largely ignored. Amongst the 37 E2s described in humans, a very limited number have been addressed for their implication in skeletal muscle protein degradation and the vast majority of studies were only descriptive. Thus, we aim at identifying E2 enzymes that may be implicated in the ubiquitination of contractile proteins during skeletal muscle atroph
