We examined molecular mechanisms that were altered during rapid soleus (type I fiber-dominant) and plantaris (type II fiber-dominant) hypertrophy in rats. Twelve Wistar rats (3.5 mo old; 6 female, 6 male) were subjected to surgical right-leg soleus and plantaris dual overload [synergist ablation (SA)], and sham surgeries were performed on left legs (CTL). At 14 days after surgery, the muscles were dissected. Plantaris mass was 27% greater in the SA than CTL leg ( P < 0.001), soleus mass was 13% greater in the SA than CTL leg ( P < 0.001), and plantaris mass was higher than soleus mass in the SA leg ( P = 0.001). Plantaris total RNA concentrations and estimated total RNA levels (suggestive of ribosome density) were 19% and 47% greater in the SA than CTL leg ( P < 0.05), protein synthesis levels were 64% greater in the SA than CTL leg ( P = 0.038), and satellite cell number per fiber was 60% greater in the SA than CTL leg ( P = 0.003); no differences in these metrics were observed between soleus SA and CTL legs. Plantaris, as well as soleus, 20S proteasome activity was lower in the SA than CTL leg ( P < 0.05), although the degree of downregulation was greater in the plantaris than soleus muscle (−63% vs. −20%, P = 0.001). These data suggest that early-phase plantaris hypertrophy occurs more rapidly than soleus hypertrophy, which coincided with greater increases in ribosome biogenesis, protein synthesis, and satellite cell density, as well as greater decrements in 20S proteasome activity, in the plantaris muscle.

Many patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries have persistent quadriceps muscle atrophy, even after considerable time in rehabilitation. Understanding the factors that regulate muscle mass, and the time course of atrophic events, is important for identifying therapeutic interventions. Using a non-invasive animal model of ACL injury, a longitudinal study was performed to elucidate key parameters underlying quadriceps muscle atrophy. Male Long-Evans rats were euthanized at 6, 12, 24, 48-hrs and 1, 2, 4-wks after ACL injury that was induced via tibial compression overload; controls were not injured. Vastus Lateralis muscle size was determined by wet weight and fiber CSA. Evidence of disrupted neuromuscular communication was assessed via the expression of NCAM and genes associated with denervation and neuromuscular junction instability. Abundance of MuRF-1, MAFbx, and 45s pre-rRNA along with 20S proteasome activity were determined to investigate mechanisms related to muscle atrophy. Lastly, muscle damage-related parameters were assessed by measuring IgG permeability, centronucleation, CD68 mRNA and satellite cell abundance. Compared to controls, we observed a greater percentage of NCAM positive fibers at 6-hrs post-injury, followed by higher MAFbx abundance 48-hrs post-injury, and higher 20S proteasome activity at 1-wk post-injury. A loss of muscle wet weight, smaller fiber CSA and the elevated expression of Runx1 were also observed at the 1-wk post-injury time point relative to controls. There also were no differences observed in any damage markers. These results indicate that alterations in neuromuscular communication precede the upregulation of atrophic factors that regulate quadriceps muscle mass early after non-invasive ACL injury.

1567 Background: Bortezomib is a selective inhibitor of the proteasome that has been approved for the treatment of multiple myeloma and has also shown promising evidence of clinical activity against solid tumors. This study was undertaken to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD), toxicity profile, and biologic activity of bortezomib for the treatment of recurrent malignant glioma (MG). Methods: Eligible patients (pts) had supratentorial progressive MG upon radiotherapy and ≤ 1 prior regimen of chemotherapy. Dose escalation was conducted separately for pts taking enzyme inducing antiseizure drugs (EIASD+) and for those not (EIASD-). Bortezomib was given by bolus iv injection on weeks 1 and 2 of each 3 week cycle of therapy. The starting dose in both groups was 0.9 mg/m2. Cohorts of at least 3 patients were evaluated at each dose level. 20S proteasome activity was determined in whole blood lysates before and at 1 and 24 h after the first dose. Results: Fifty-nine evaluable pts (41 male/18 female) with a median age of 51 years and median KPS of 90% have been enrolled. All but 2 pts had received 1 prior chemotherapy regimen. In the EIASD- group, the weekly dose was escalated from 0.9 to 1.9 mg/m2 through 3 intermediate dose levels, with 1.7 mg/m2 established as the MTD. DLT experienced by 2 of 6 pts in the 1.90 mg/m2 dose level were grade 3 thrombocytopenia and grade 3 fatigue plus neurosensory toxicities. In the EIASD+ group, the dose has been escalated to 2.3 mg/m2 without the occurrence of any DLT. Ten additional EIASD- pts were treated at 1.7 mg/m2, with the most common adverse events being thrombocytopenia and peripheral neuropathy. The extent of proteasome inhibition in whole blood increased in a dose-dependent manner in both treatment groups. Mean proteasome inhibition in EIASD+ pts 1 h after receiving 2.1 mg/m2 of bortezomib (77 ± 12%) was similar to the 1.7 mg/m2 dose in EIASD- pts (79 ± 6%). Conclusions: The MTD for the weekly x 2 schedule of bortezomib in EIASD- patients, 1.7 mg/m2, is higher than the approved dose of 1.3 mg/m2 for the treatment of multiple myeloma. The enhanced tolerability of the drug when given together with EIASDs, for which the MTD is at least 2.1 mg/m2, is consistent with the diminished inhibition of 20S proteasome activity in these pts.
