Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Comparative gene identification-58 and perilipins (2-5) are expressed in skeletal muscle. There are many studies addressing hormone sensitive lipase regulating steatolysis in skeletal muscle, but changes of triglyceride, perilipin family proteins and comparative gene identification-58 in skeletal muscle during exercise are little reported.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of 4-week endurance training on the expression of perilipin family proteins and comparative gene identification-58 in C57BL/6J mice, and to explore their correlation with triglyceride level.
METHODS: Eighty 6-week-old male healthy SPF C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group and endurance training group according to the time-points pre-exercise, 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks post-exercise. The first week of endurance exercise was adaptive training, and the formal training lasted for 4 weeks, 6 days weekly, the training time in the morning 8: 00-12: 00, with 16 m/minute, 5% degree slope for 40 minutes of treadmill exercise. Mice in the control group were allowed free access to food. The body mass and blood indexes were tested. The triglyceride level, expression of perilipin family proteins and comparative gene identification-58 in mouse gastrocnemius and soleus were detected.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Endurance training showed no effect on mouse body mass, blood glucose and free fatty acids, and significantly reduced blood total triglyceride, total cholesterol and insulin levels (P < 0.05), and increased the level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (P < 0.05). The intramuscular triglyceride of the soleus muscle was higher than that of the gastrocnemius muscle. During the period of endurance training, intramuscular triglycerides firstly reduced and then rose (P < 0.05). In the working muscles (soleus and gastrocnemius) perilipin family proteins (except perlipin 2), comparative gene identification-58 mRNA and protein were significantly increased (P < 0.05). In summary, in the early stage of endurance training, changes in perilipin family proteins (except PLIN2), comparative gene identification-58 mRNA and protein expression participate in the regulation of hydrolysis, and their participation is weakened thereafter, indicating intramuscular triglyceride synthesis on fat is stronger than its hydrolysis.
