Hypoxemia-induced modification of troponin I and T in canine diaphragm

Abstract: Impaired muscle function (fatigue) may result, in part, from modification of contractile proteins due to inadequate O(2) delivery. We hypothesized that severe hypoxemia would modify skeletal troponin I (TnI) and T (TnT), two regulatory contractile proteins, in respiratory muscles. Severe isocapnic hypoxemia (arterial partial pressure of O(2) of approximately 25 Torr) in six pentobarbital sodium-anesthetized spontaneously breathing dogs increased respiratory frequency and electromyographic activity of the diaph… Show more

“…Did proteolysis occur in the tissue or after its release into blood? We previously showed, in severely hypox- emic dogs, that proteolysis of sTnI occurs in the diaphragm, demonstrating that proteolytic fragments form in the muscle cell before release (16 ). This is similar to what happens in the myocardium, where the cTnI undergoes specific and progressive proteolysis (21, 22 ); recombinant human cTnI added to serum undergoes little, if any, proteolysis over 24 h at 37°C (18 ).…”

“…Membranes were blocked overnight at 4°C in 100 mL/L blocking reagent (Roche). Primary antibodies of confirmed isoform specificity were used (16,17 ). These included FI-32 and FI-23 (Spectral Diagnostics) and SI-1 (Hytest), which are specific for fsTnI, and MYNT-S (courtesy of N. Matsumoto), which is specific for ssTnI.…”

“…While we cannot exclude the possibility that other muscles contributed to the released sTnI, severe hypoxemia leading to respiratory arrest in anesthetized dogs induced protein changes only in the diaphragm even though other muscles were activated by the hypoxemia (44). In rabbits, loading injured only the diaphragm, not other respiratory or limb muscles, despite their being exposed to the same asphyxic blood gases (25).…”

“…Anti-TnI monoclonal antibodies of confirmed isoform specificity were chosen for WB-DSA: sTnI, FI-32 and FI-23 (fast only, Spectral Diagnostics, Toronto, ON, Canada); MYNT-S (preferential for slow in rat; 31); and 3I-35 (fast, slow, and cardiac; Spectral Diagnostics). Specificity of all antibodies was confirmed by Western blot analysis of cardiac and skeletal tissue from human and rat as described previously (44). To compare release of fast sTnI between loading and sham, blots were scanned at a resolution of 300 dpi, and three-dimensional volume (density) plots were generated; densitometry values of fast sTnI were normalized to levels in control lanes.…”

“…There is an increased reliance on anaerobic pathways (5), which, when prolonged, results in an accumulation of metabolic byproducts and ionic disturbances linked with muscle fatigue (6). Excessive production of reactive oxygen species occurs and promotes myosin and actin degradation (7), leading to damage of myofibrillar proteins (8) and reduced functional capacity of skeletal muscles (9). These changes occur at the single fiber level of adult diaphragm (10).…”
