Effects of aging on mitochondrial function in skeletal muscle of American American Quarter Horses

Abstract: Skeletal muscle function, aerobic capacity, and mitochondrial (Mt) function have been found to decline with age in humans and rodents. However, not much is known about age-related changes in Mt function in equine skeletal muscle. Here, we compared fiber-type composition and Mt function in gluteus medius and triceps brachii muscle between young (age 1.8 ± 0.1 yr, n = 24) and aged (age 17-25 yr, n = 10) American Quarter Horses. The percentage of myosin heavy chain (MHC) IIX was lower in aged compared with young … Show more

“…Direct support comes from our previous analysis of myosin heavy chain (MyHC) isoform distribution in triceps and gluteus muscles from this same group of horses. At sampling depths of 5 cm, the triceps contained around 10% MyHC-I, 33% MyHC-IIa, and 55% MyHC-IIx, compared to the gluteus with 3% MyHC-I, 21% MyHC-IIa, and 75% MyHC-IIx 8 . A similar relation of type I fiber distribution between triceps and gluteus was reported for Dutch Saddle Horses at a sampling depth of 5 cm (~25% versus ~10% for the triceps and gluteus, respectively) 9 .…”

“…A linha azul representa a concentração de oxigênio (nmol mL -1 ), a linha vermelha representa o fluxo de O2 específico da massa muscular (pmol O2 s -1 mg -1 peso úmido, inclinação negativa da linha azul normalizada ao peso do tecido). As seções marcadas correspondem a fluxos de estado estacionário em diferentes estados de acoplamento (RB, F e E) (Adaptado e traduzido de Li et al, 2016) Para a análise de degradação da titina e da nebulina, amostras congeladas nos diferentes tempos (1, 3, 6, 24h, 7 e 14d postmortem), foram pulverizadas com nitrogênio líquido e dissolvidas em tampão de extração na relação 1:10 amostra:tampão (Warren, Krzesinski e Greaser, 2003 Degradação da nebulina = sinal da banda referente a nebulina / sinal da banda referente a miosina…”
